Divine Beast Lord: 10000 Amplifier From The Start - Chapter 145
Chapter 145: Sacrificing Oneself to Save Others
[Ice Thorn]!
Wang Xiao’s pupils constricted. He instantly recognized that this was the skill of the [Ice Corrosion Python], but it was already too late to dodge!
With a soft puff, the [Ice Thorns] had already pierced through the chest of the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon]. However, no blood flowed out because the two wounds had already been instantly frozen by the ice!
The scarlet ice crystal flower quietly bloomed. Wang Xiao’s heart immediately tightened. He hurriedly urged his mind to send the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] back to his territory to recuperate. However, after trying a few times, the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] was still flapping its wings and flying!
“It’s doing it again!”
Wang Xiao could not help but curse inwardly. This was not the first time the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] had shown “rebellion”, but this was the first time his heart ached the most!
“Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon! I order you to return!”
Wang Xiao patted the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] hard and shouted, but the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] acted as if it could not hear him. Even the contract between the lord and the soldiers had lost its effect!
A few seconds later, the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] finally could not hold on anymore. With a bang, it turned into a white light and collapsed.
Wang Xiao, who had lost his support, instantly flew out. However, before he could fly far, he bumped into something furry.
“[Ice Thunder Horn Wolf]
Wang Xiao recognized the cold smell on this thing. When he looked up again, he discovered that Zhou Xiruo, Chen Xue, and the others were all beside him. Only then did he understand that the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] had endured the pain and flapped its wings to fly away and send him back to its companions.
“This detestable fellow, I’m a lord! Do I need you to take care of me?”
Wang Xiao gritted his teeth and cursed, but his heart was warm. When he recalled his suspicion and fear of the Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon, he could not help but feel guilty.
At the same time, Zhou Xiruo and Chen Xue also helped Wang Xiao up.
After sizing him up and not finding any injuries, Zhou Xiruo finally heaved a sigh of relief. “Wang Xiao! Didn’t you promise me not to take any more risks?
Why didn’t you keep your word?!”
“I promised you not to take the initiative to take the risk, but the danger has always been there!”
Wang Xiao smiled bitterly and looked at Chen Xue. “Teacher Chen, are you alright?”
Chen Xue shook her head. “Why are you guys back again?”
“After we waited for a while and realized that you didn’t back out, I guessed that you might have encountered danger.”
Wang Xiao explained briefly and looked at Liu Wenbo, who was about to speak not far away. “I know what you want to ask, but now is not the time to chat. We have to think of a way to deal with the [Ice Corrosion Python]!”
Liu Wenbo’s words were stuck in his throat. He hesitated for a moment before nodding. “That mutated beast is too strong. We’re not its match. Let’s shake it off as soon as possible!”
“You won’t be able to shake it off.’
Wang Xiao smiled awkwardly and pointed at the [Ice Corrosion Python] that was struggling to escape from the swamp. “In order to attract attention just now, I was a little ruthless. Now, its hatred for me has already exploded…”
“What?!”
Everyone was shocked when they heard this. Just now, they were only focused on escaping and did not even have the time to see what Wang Xiao had done.
However. to be able to make the hatred of a level seven Platinum mutated beast explode, it was definitely not as simple as being “a little ruthless”!
For a moment, everyone’s expressions turned solemn.
With its hatred being off the charts, it meant that the [Ice Corrosion Python] would pursue Wang Xiao at all costs. Now, they only had the option of “battle” left!
However, that was a level seven platinum mutated beast. Even if everyone unleashed all-out attacks, they would only be able to cause some flesh injuries. When the [Ice Corrosion Python] escaped from the swamp, who could stop it?
“Where’s the rest of your expedition?”
Chen Xue suddenly looked at Liu Wenbo and asked, “There can’t be only these six people when you explore the [Large Mystic Realm], right?”
“Of course not. We have a total of 70 people this time. Among them, 15 are level six lords and 20 are level five lords.”
Liu Wenbo replied softly with a subtle expression, “However, after we suddenly encountered the [Ice Corrosion Python], in order to ensure the safety of the main group and the scientists, the ten of us were sent out to lure the [Ice Corrosion Python] away…”
At this point, Liu Wenbo stopped, but Chen Xue still understood what he meant. These ten people were already abandoned, basically meaning that no one would come to save them.
The atmosphere became even more depressing. At the same time, the sound of the [Ice Corrosion Python] struggling became louder and louder. It was obvious that it was about to escape from the swamp.
Just as everyone was helpless, a warrior said with a complicated expression, “Actually, there’s another way…”
“Shut up! ”
Liu Wenbo scolded angrily, as if he had already guessed what the other party wanted to say. “Wang Xiao saved us twice, twice! Do you know what nonsense you’re talking about?!”
That person shrank his neck from the scolding, but he still continued in a low voice, “But sacrificing one person is better than everyone dying together…”
Hearing this, the others also understood. The “solution” that the warrior mentioned was to let Wang Xiao use the other party’s hatred towards him to attract the [Ice Corrosion Python] and buy time for the others to escape! “Repaying kindness with ingratitude?”
Wang Xiao glanced at the warrior, but the other party immediately looked away and did not dare to look at him.
Seeing this scene, Wang Xiao smiled in relief. “Alright, let’s do that.”
“I don’t agree!”
Zhou Xiruo immediately stood up and grabbed Wang Xiao. She said seriously, “If you insist, I’ll stay with you!”
“I’ll stay too!”
Chen Xue followed closely behind and expressed her stance. Liu Wenbo glanced at the warrior who suggested it and silently walked to Wang Xiao’s side. Then, four more warriors walked over.
The warrior who suggested stood alone on the spot, no longer daring to look at them.
Actually, he did not want to repay kindness with ingratitude. However, after escaping death twice, it was simply impossible for him to not be afraid of death.
Seeing this situation, Wang Xiao suddenly hesitated.
If he was asked to sacrifice himself, he would definitely not hesitate at all. However, now, he had to sacrifice eight lives in exchange for the hope of one person escaping. Moreover, it was the person who had repaid his kindness with ingratitude. This deal seemed to be a loss no matter what…
“Forget it, I’ve changed my mind.”
Wang Xiao suddenly spoke. Everyone who was already prepared to die was stunned.
“We can still use its hatred, but in a different way.”
Wang Xiao smiled under everyone’s puzzled gazes. “Do you still remember that there’s a [Volcano Melting Lizard] nearby?”
Liu Wenbo and the other warriors had never seen the [Volcano Melting Lizard] before. When they heard this, they all looked confused, but Zhou Xiruo and Chen Xue’s eyes lit up at the same time.
The reason why the [Ice Corrosion Python] was powerful was mainly because of its super strong defense in low temperatures.
As the only fire attribute mutated beast that lived in the extremely cold ice plain, the surrounding temperature would drop anywhere it went.. This could undoubtedly greatly reduce the defense of the [Ice Corrosion Python]!
