Chapter 18 - Ch 18: Lucas's Astonishment

Only the Third-tier Star Warriors stepped forward, knowing that these two boys were completely immobilized. Taking care of them would be effortless.

Aiden lowered his head, lost in thought.

One of the Star Warriors glanced at Lucas, who was lying on the ground. He coldly raised his foot, preparing to step on him.

"Crack!"

Just then, the sound of his knuckles cracking pierced through the air. Aiden's hands clenched into fists. He lifted his head; his eyes were blazed with fury as he stared at his opponent.

"Yaa!"

Aiden's body shot forward like a bolt of lightning, directly toward the man poised to strike Lucas. No one could comprehend where he found the strength; though severely injured, his movements were remarkably swift. In the blink of an eye, his fist collided with the man's chest, forcing a pained scream from his lips. The man's chest caved inward from the impact, and he was sent flying, blood spraying from his mouth.

At that moment, Aiden stood tall, despite the pain in his lower back. In his hand, he gripped a broken spike. It was the tip of a wooden spike.

Lucas had inscribed runes on all the wooden spikes, greatly enhancing their power. This was why Aiden had been able to severely injure the man who was about to attack Lucas.

The other person suddenly became vigilant. He immediately pulled out his sword and quickly flew toward Aiden's back.

Aiden suddenly turned around, and in the next moment, he fiercely grabbed onto the sword in his opponent's hands, causing the sword's edge to cut open his hand. This caused blood to flow profusely from the wound, but Aiden did not care. His cold eyes pierced towards his enemy, causing the enemy's heart to tremble.

Aiden exerted force and clenched his fist tightly. This Star Warrior's sword was actually twisted in an instant and was crushed into a ball of wrinkles.

The enemy opened his eyes wide in shock. He could not believe what just happened. His heart was in a panic. Aiden waved his hand that was holding the broken tip of the wooden spike and fiercely smashed it onto the person's chest.

"Bam!"

That person's chest was instantly pierced and he died a violent death!

"You bastard!"

One of the Level 8 Third-tier Star Warriors bellowed in anger. Then he flew and kicked Aiden in the back.

Aiden had no way of resisting this attack. Many of his bones shattered as he was sent flying far away!

"Ahhh!"

Aiden screamed in pain and his screams grew further and further away.

The Level 8 Third-tier Star Warrior stared fixedly at Lucas who was on the ground. He noticed Lucas's cold gaze and saw his body slightly moving.

"Hmm?"

The Level 8 Third-tier Star Warrior was stunned.

Under his watch, Lucas slowly stood up. He also held the sword of the person killed by Aiden.

Previously, Lucas was so heavily injured and exhausted that he could not even move his body, but now, he seemed to have recovered most of his strength.

Lucas apathetically glanced at everyone present, as if he was looking at a pile of dead bodies.

At this moment, the surrounding air was extremely cold. Lucas wielded his sword and moved his hand on the sword's body, causing a strange pattern to be drawn on the sword's blade magically. After that, the sword's tip suddenly formed a silver line flow, releasing a clear sound. That strand of cold silver light seemed to be powerful enough to cut apart everything!

When Lucas held onto the sword again, his aura suddenly soared. A kind of string sound was heard suddenly. It was clear and melodious. Strangely, this sound actually rang, along with the intent of cold killing.

The Level 8 Third-tier Star Warrior frowned. He could sense something was amiss but could not point it out. Then he gushed out directly like a ferocious beast roaring as he rushed towards Lucas.

Lucas's gaze was sharp like a blade. He instantly raised his sword and slashed out.

"One Sword Strike!"

Shua~

As he waved the Sword in his hand, even he himself couldn't control it as the sword started to violently shake, causing him unable to hold one hand. He quickly used both of his hands as much as he could, gritted his teeth, and strongly waved them downwards.

Then, an arc of light flew out from the blade of the sword, forming a perfect curve, and directly slashed at that Level 8 Third-tier Star Warrior in front of him as well as the many Star Warriors behind him.

Everyone had expressions of shock on their faces as they felt an earth-shattering murderous aura approaching. They knew if they could not dodge, they would die!

Immediately, Level 8 Third-tier Star Warrior dashed out of the ground recklessly, trying to dodge Lucas's attack with all his might. Unfortunately, he was too close to Lucas to avoid this attack.

The others also tried to dodge, but the sword was too fast, and all of them were unable to escape. In an instant, many Star Warriors' bodies were all sliced into two halves by the arc of light, and all of their eyes were wide open as they died a miserable death.

All the Third-tier Star Warriors were dead.

As for the six Second-tier Star Warriors, their minds buzzed for a moment, and they held their breaths as they stared at Lucas with astonished gazes. They only had one thought in their minds— hurry up and kill Lucas!

Therefore, they all used their movement skills to charge at Lucas.

One by one, their attacks tore through the air and crashed into Lucas's body without a care.

Who would have imagined that the six Second-tier Star Warriors would actually be afraid of Lucas so much so that they attacked him at the same time?

Lucas didn't retreat in the face of their attacks. Instead, he brought his sword on top of his head. With a gloomy expression, he again slashed his sword.

"Swish! Swish! Swish!"

The instant Lucas slashed his sword forward, the sword suddenly split into hundreds of Sword Energy beams that shot out in all directions, pouncing towards the six Second-tier Star Warriors like a torrential rain.

At this moment, as if they had seen a ghost, the six Second-tier Star Warriors subconsciously turned around to flee. They were escaping for their lives.

After this strike, Lucas was already half-kneeling on the ground, his face pale white, as he panted heavily.

His eyes coldly looked at the pile of corpses in front of him as he disdainfully said: "Humph, you want to kill me? In this world, those who can kill me, have yet to be born!"

His tone was overbearing, arrogant, and proud!

He again took out a bean-sized object and swallowed it. With a sway of his body, he began to walk in the direction that Aiden had been sent flying.

He, Lucas, had not received any injuries today, it was just that he had exhausted too much of his energy, and in order to help him, Aiden suffered greatly. There was only one thing in Lucas's mind, find Aiden!

He did not even bother to look at the huge Fire Origin Beast.

When he finally saw Aiden, Aiden was sitting cross-legged quietly. There was a layer of faint golden light surging on his body that was mysteriously healing his injuries. Although the healing process was not that fast, there is no doubt that his injuries were being healed rapidly.

Lucas was startled when he witnessed this scene. He silently watched and was extremely immersed in his thoughts.

Aiden's body was originally covered with wounds, but under the healing effect of the golden light that was covering his entire body, his injuries gradually recovered.

Lucas was like an idiot, standing in his place, unable to accept the fact that he had just witnessed.

He wished that he could rush up and ask Aiden what kind of golden light that was, and what kind of healing method he was using to recover his injuries. With this method, why would he need any healing medicine?

Just as his heart was in shock, Aiden's body suddenly let out a "crackle" sound. He saw Aiden's face was in pain, he was tightly grabbing onto his own hand as if there were tens of thousands of poisons devouring his body, and his face was twisted and sinister.

Lucas's heart instantly tightened; his brows knitted as he thought to himself: 'What is happening? Why is he making such a face?'

"Bang!"

Just as Lucas wanted to go near Aiden, there was only the sound of an explosion inside Aiden's body. Aiden abruptly lifted his head and painfully cried out: "AHH!"

Hearing this, Lucas's heart turned cold.

What kind of pain Aiden was enduring?

Just as he was about to rush forward to save Aiden, he realized that Aiden's aura had suddenly risen and climbed up directly to Level 4 of Third-tier Star Warrior from Level 2, stabilizing gradually.

As for the broken bones in Aiden's entire body, they seemed to be more upright and sturdier. When he lightly clenched his fist, it emitted a clear sound, and his entire temperament instantly changed.
