The Death List Novel - Chapter 587
Chapter 587 Final Battle of Gan Luo (1)
The ancient civilizations of the earth federation had once witnessed slave battles, in which the middle and upper classes of mankind made bankrupt and prisoners of war fight each other in the arena for fun. One of these models was called the Death Battle.
The slave owners of the arena tied a chain around the necks or ankles of the two gladiators, making it impossible for them to escape the battle. They could only fight face-to-face. Because this type of duel limited the range of gladiators, the process of fighting was extremely bloody, and the mortality rate was very high. It was a very popular type of duel among spectators.
The Death Wrestling Shackles that Gan Luo was currently using were similar skills that mimicked this type of wrestling chain.
However, this ability to forcefully restrain another Apostle through attack was already a taboo law. Not only is it very restrictive, but it also places a great burden on users. Light would cause a permanent reduction in body attributes, and heavy would cause the collapse of the Laws Body.
Most high-level Apostle had one or two of these forbidden skills as their trump cards. For example, Wolf had used a similar forbidden technique when facing the Reaper Spear Qin Lun had shot out during the Octopus Body Surface Battle. As a result, he fell into a state of extreme weakness and was defeated by Gan Luo, who arrived later.
A slender silver chain stretched out from the dimension and bound Qin Lun’s Apostle Soul Seal.
“Confinement skill?” Qin Lun looked at the opponent behind him, his heart trembling. He had a new understanding of the abilities of the high-tier Apostle.
Although the distance between them was only a few minutes, it was still several hundred kilometers. Using a certain skill to restrict himself from such a distance was almost equivalent to using a divine ability.
“We shouldn’t be able to reach our next destination!” Feeling the heavy dragging force coming from the chains, Qin Lun knew that this battle was inevitable.
Originally, he had used the map of Palanto in his memory to set up an escape route. Along the way, there were several nests of powerful creatures, enough for him to delay until he returned to the starry sky.
However, the stronger a life was, the larger the territory would be. The next destination he prepared was at least half an hour away from the Three-eyed Race’s village. Judging from the present situation, he can’t drag on until then.
Thinking of this, Qin Lun slightly slowed down his flying speed and looked back with all his eyes.
“He seems to be struggling too?” When the initial shock subsided, Qin Lun’s powerful perception immediately noticed that Gan Luo’s aura was slightly weaker than before.
Such a powerful skill would not be unlimited. Qin Lun’s eyes flashed with a bright light. He spread his wings behind him and dragged Gan Luo forward.
“You still want to escape?” Gan Luo leaned over and was immediately stunned. “Isn’t he afraid that his physical strength would be exhausted too much and affect the later battles?”
Regardless of whether Gan Luo understood or not, he was helpless at this moment. He could only pull the shackles again and again, trying his best to shorten the distance between the two of them.
After more than ten times, Gan Luo finally came to his senses. His opponent did not hesitate to drag him forward. Obviously, he saw through the enormous burden that the wrestling shackles would place on the user, and had been delaying the use of the shackles for a long time.
Thinking about this, Gan Luo calmed down and couldn’t help but feel a little regretful in his heart. He had never used such a forbidden skill before.
There were many reasons for this. The main reason was that when he was in the body of Laws, although his ability to wrestle with shackles was a forbidden skill, it was far from being as powerful as it was now. At most, he could only imprison opponents within a hundred meters.
Within this distance, he only needed a few jumps or a single charge to catch up to the enemy. Even if he included the entire battle process, it wouldn’t take more than a few minutes.
And now, Gan Luo’s body was the king of saber roaches of the arachnid race. With his body that was countless times stronger than before, he was able to trap enemies hundreds of kilometers away. Of course, if it was in space, hundreds of kilometers of distance would also instantly pass by.
However, they weren’t currently in space, but in the atmosphere of the Palanto Plane. The distance that shackles could use was not shortened, but their movement speed was different from when they were in space.
The two of them slowly left the village where the Three-eyed Race lived while feeling conflicted with each other.
Not long after the two of them left, a strong wind suddenly blew over the Three-Eyed Race village. A wisp of light smoke condensed into three human figures at the entrance of the village. Two of them were women and a man. They were Qin Mei, her two subordinates, Junko, and the bald Big man.
At this time, in front of the village gate of the Three-eyed Race village, the dozen or so Three-eyed Giants who had originally blocked Gan Luo did not die, but their legs were heavily injured. They were hugging their injured legs and moaning in pain.
The three-eyed giant was huge and thick. In order to save time, Gan Luo only broke their legs and didn’t choose to kill them all. Otherwise, by the time he killed these three-eyed giants, Qin Lun would have long since disappeared.
“Hehe, I knew brother would have a way to get rid of that ugly bug!” Qin Mei looked at the three-eyed giant on the ground, a smile flashing across her eyes. She thought happily, “It seems like there’s no need to rush to meet her brother!”
“Lord Mei, are we going to continue chasing after him?” Bald Big man said weakly, “If the two of them discover that there is a tracker behind them, they will probably join forces to deal with us first. If that’s the case, it would be better to intercept and kill the other weaker Second Grade cultivators.”
Among the three of them, apart from Qin Mei and Junko, Bald Big man did not know about the sibling relationship between Qin Lun and Qin Mei. The three of them were afraid that they would follow too closely and enter the range of the two people in front of them, so they didn’t know that Gan Luo had used the Death Wrestling Shackles to force Qin Lun to fight him.
“Yes, you’re right. I’ll listen to you this time!” Qin Mei narrowed her eyes to a crescent moon and patted Big man’s shoulder with a smile.
“Oh” Seeing that Qin Mei was so easy to talk to, Bald Big man felt a chill run down his spine and shut his mouth tightly.
…
As time passed, Gan Luo also shortened the distance between him and Qin Lun to within a thousand meters. However, at this moment, he felt that his body was exceptionally heavy. His entire body was extremely itchy, and his spirit was extremely exhausted. The enormous consumption of the wrestling shackles, even with the powerful body of the Saber Roach King, had almost reached its limit.
However, at this moment, Gan Luo was unable to get off the tiger, and the shackles of the Death Wrestle could not be easily removed once he used them. If you want to unlock the restrictive laws of the chains, do you want to kill your opponent, or let your opponent completely unlock their hearts? However, this way, the opponent’s Apostle number would also be known to Gan Luo.
Another way is for Gan Luo to take the initiative to cut the chains, but the side effects are even greater. Not only would Gan Luo lose this skill forever if he took the initiative to cut the chains, it would also reduce his lifespan by a large margin.
“It’s been more than ten minutes. We can’t delay any longer!” Gan Luo gritted his teeth and clasped his palms together again, fiercely pulling at the invisible chains of Laws.
As soon as Gan Luo pulled him away, Kieran immediately reacted, and the momentum of his flight once again slowed down. However, this time, Gan Luo did not retreat. Instead, he staggered and almost couldn’t maintain his flying posture.
“Heh, he should be reaching his limit!” Qin Lun smiled faintly. However, he was not feeling too well at this time. His entire body was dripping with sweat and he was panting like an ox.
Qin Lun closed his eyes and recalled the landform he had seen on the projection. Looking at the cliff in front of him, a trace of joy finally appeared on his face.
“Almost there. This place should have already entered the territory of that creature!”
Qin Lun took a deep breath and flapped his pitch-black wings. He turned around and floated in the air, waiting for Gan Luo to arrive.
Seeing that Qin Lun was no longer fleeing, Gan Luo slowed down his speed and cautiously stopped about 300 meters away from him. This distance was instantly approaching for them, and they had already entered the attack range of both sides.
“Are you not going to escape?” Gan Luo’s eyelids twitched fiercely as he stared at his opponent with a complicated expression.
“What are you running for if you can’t!” Qin Lun chuckled.
You know that you can’t escape, but you still have to expend so much effort! Hearing Qin Lun’s words, Gan Luo’s face couldn’t help but twitch. “I don’t know what kind of promise and reward I’ve given you. However, with your temperament, you’re more suited to Chaos Alliance. Sooner or later, you’ll have to turn around. Why bother deceiving yourself?”
Qin Lun fell silent. Gan Luo was telling the truth, which made it impossible for him to deceive him.
Seeing that Qin Lun was speechless, Gan Luo’s eyes lit up and he took advantage of the hot metal to strike, “Join my team. I guarantee that I will give you the status of a main force member. As long as you pass the grinding-in period, you will become core members. What do you think?”
“You guys?” Qin Lun sensitively recognized what Gan Luo was saying. “You recruited my companions?”
“It’s not me. It’s a high-level Chaos from several other divisions in Apostle. They’ve come into contact with’mercenaries’ and’masks’.” Gan Luo nodded and said in a deep voice, “It’s just that they’re all pushing you, Guild Leader.”
“Mercenaries and masks?” As soon as Qin Lun thought about it, he immediately understood that the term “mercenary” referred to his disciple Hansen. The “mask” was naturally the code name for Grant the Clown.
“Those two guys pushed me?” Qin Lun had a bitter smile on his face. Originally, he felt that he owed his disciples and the others a favor this time, but now it seemed that those fellows owed him a favor.
No wonder Gan Luo would rather use a forbidden skill with great side effects than chase after him. It turned out that he was not the only one who chased after him.
“If you win against me, I’ll accept your invitation. As for the other guys, I can’t guarantee you anything. Everything depends on their own choices.” Qin Lun said seriously.
He did not immediately reject Gan Luo. In fact, Qin Lun did not dare to reject him. He used a playful method to drag Gan Luo out for such a long time. If the other party felt that all his efforts were futile, he might really kill him.
Although Qin Lun still had the last move, his opponent was still a high-tier Apostle. Even though his body and mind were exhausted from the shackles of the battle, his chances of winning were still lower than his opponent’s.
“Alright!” Gan Luo stopped talking nonsense, and his figure flashed as he dragged out a series of afterimages and pounced towards Qin Lun.
