CHAPTER 359: CHAPTER 60: MONEY OBSESSED

As the firelight receded, Crazy Healer stood still. His once buzz-cut hair was now burned to baldness, and that black priest’s robe shone with a purple glow.

Crazy Healer’s upper body was unharmed, but his calves were seriously injured, covered with burns. If it weren’t for multiple layers of shields, his legs would have been blown off.

An emerald green light flickered, and a few seconds later, Crazy Healer’s injuries healed. He didn’t care about the injuries on his legs but kept a close eye on the black priest’s robe.

"Don’t break, don’t break..."

Crazy Healer started muttering. He wasn’t this nervous even when he was swarmed by bombs. Now, the durability of his priest’s robe was at 0, and it could break at any moment.

It seemed either his prayers were heard or all the good deeds he had done paid off, for the priest’s robe remained intact.

Crazy Healer stowed away the priest’s robe, going bare-chested.

"You jerk, you almost blew my heart out."

Su Xiao was a bit stunned, thinking that wasn’t this the time to curse back, asking how dare you hurt me. It seemed this guy was a money-grubber.

Words were futile now, and Su Xiao charged forward.

In close combat with Su Xiao once more, Crazy Healer’s fighting style changed abruptly; he disregarded the long knife slashing towards him, swinging the battle scythe in his hand at Su Xiao.

Slash.

Slash.

Two sprays of blood erupted almost simultaneously. Su Xiao slashed at Crazy Healer’s neck, a golden light blocked the blade, and only a small portion pierced into Crazy Healer’s neck.

Crazy Healer’s scythe slashed into Su Xiao’s shoulder, the blade sharp and sunk deep.

Su Xiao immediately figured out Crazy Healer’s tactic; the opponent was willing to exchange injuries.

Against anyone else, Su Xiao wouldn’t hesitate, but this enemy was obviously a powerful healer with strong recovery abilities.

But Su Xiao didn’t retreat; the enemy was provoking him, and his own survival ability was strong too. Even if the opponent could self-heal, who would laugh last was yet unknown.

"Isn’t living better?"

Hearing Su Xiao’s low murmur, Crazy Healer was slightly surprised.

Su Xiao withdrew Dragon Slash from Crazy Healer’s neck while Crazy Healer swung the scythe for several strikes at Su Xiao.

Su Xiao focused on his physique, mobilizing all his internal mana. He now had 680 points of mana remaining.

All these mana points transformed into blue steel shadow energy. The light blue energy filled Su Xiao’s body, and at that moment, Su Xiao’s pupils turned light blue in the center.

Crazy Healer suddenly felt a tingling at the scalp and quickly tried to retreat, but it was too late.

Su Xiao infused all his blue steel shadow energy into Dragon Slash, which emitted a blinding light as if it had become a thunder blade.

"This big move is too fast."

Crazy Healer was speechless; Su Xiao’s big move came without warning.

The dazzling Dragon Slash fell, Crazy Healer raised the scythe handle to block, but the scythe’s durability dropped like water, causing him heartache.

Ding.

The scythe broke, and Su Xiao slashed Crazy Healer’s chest.

Slash.

A large splash of blood erupted in front of Su Xiao, the long knife cutting through muscles, bones, organs, and finally stopping at Crazy Healer’s spine.

This single stroke nearly sliced Crazy Healer in half.

Blood gushed from Crazy Healer’s mouth; he staggered back, looking at the remaining life value, which had dropped from 96% to 3%. If not for the ’Angel’s Breath’ buff, he would already be on the brink of death.

"Good thing it didn’t hit the heart, or I’d be dead."

Crazy Healer spat out a mouthful of blood, disbelief in his eyes, never having imagined a day he would almost be one-shot.

"There are plenty of strong weirdoes every day, especially today."

Crazy Healer sighed, pulling out two small Soul Crystals.

Seeing the opponent take out small Soul Crystals, Su Xiao’s first reaction was to back off; the short interaction left him little faith the enemy would surrender.

Crazy Healer stuffed the two small Soul Crystals into his mouth, crunching them.

A sense of foreboding arose, and Su Xiao surveyed his surroundings.

"Haha~, felt what I felt just now, right? Too late."

Crazy Healer gulped down the Soul Crystal fragments, a light orb appearing in his hand.

The orb was golden, gradually floating upwards.

"Venus·Judgment!"

With Crazy Healer’s roar, the orb in mid-air expanded to the size of a basketball, emitting blinding white light.

The white light illuminated Crazy Healer, healing some of his injuries. However, everything else exposed to the light rapidly disintegrated into dust.

Su Xiao turned and ran; hearing Crazy Healer’s triumphant laughter, he summoned Broken Elf.

Su Xiao fired six consecutive shots in a sprinting ’Gaze Shooting’, turning Crazy Healer’s laughter into screams.

Su Xiao grinned before the white light engulfed him,’ tormented by pain all over.

Buzz~.

The white light penetrated the station; a few seconds later, the station disintegrated into dust.

In the distance, a beautiful woman witnessed the scene, a peculiar light flashing in her eyes.

"I didn’t lie to you, did I? That’s someone to latch onto, but with a bad temper, killing at the drop of a hat."

A little girl’s clear voice piped up.

"Fought Crazy Healer to such an extent, using Venus, yet still standing on his own, too bad I can’t get close."

The woman sighed, glancing at the little girl by her side.

"Congratulations, Xi Luoluo, on advancing from Worker to Contractor."

Xi Luoluo beamed with pride, revealing two canines.

"I knew before that being a Worker wasn’t a long-term solution. Although derivative world’s intervals seem safe, life is in others’ hands. In this cruel place, you need self-protection."

The woman, Shui Yuan, looked at Xi Luoluo with interest.

"How about we start an Adventure group together?"

Xi Luoluo pondered.

"Not impossible, but aren’t we both kinda weak? Who would take the lead in battle, you or me?"

Shui Yuan hugged Xi Luoluo, her slender arms tightening around Xi Luoluo’s neck.

"Of course, you lead. How can a beauty like me be a tank?"

"Bull, you go up front as bait!"

Xi Luoluo struggled, biting Shui Yuan’s arm, who yelled and let go, leaving two rows of small tooth marks on her forearm.

"You little brat, you actually bit me."

Xi Luoluo adjusted her hair, exposing four white canines.

"Look, the fight’s over there."

Xi Luoluo pointed to the station, now flattened.

Crazy Healer bolted from the dust, holding a broken scythe.

"Don’t chase; the blueprint’s yours."

Crazy Healer sprinted rapidly, not very fast, while Su Xiao silently pursued with his knife, equally slow.

Su Xiao chased Crazy Healer because he couldn’t stand this guy playing tricks and running away afterward.

Crazy Healer ran amidst loud yelling, occasionally tossing grenades, quickly reaching the coast.

"Getting hunted is annoying, but mind if I ask if you’re interested in joining the Divine Emperor..."

Before Crazy Healer finished, he noticed Su Xiao had taken out the heavy sniper and leaped into the sea without another word.
