<h4>Chapter 335: Assassination: Part 3</h4>
Lin Sheng had originally nned to talk, but the moment he saw ck misting out of the monsters’ mouth and nose, and the frenzied hostility in their bloodshot eyes, he had to put that n to rest.
“Since they have bat wings, let’s just call you guys Batwings then,” Lin Sheng said to himself.
Hundreds of dark power threads shot out from his side into the cluster of Batwings, as they hit thender’s wings and limbs.
*Bam bam bam!!*
The Batwings were frail, slightly above a Transcendent level, and could not withstand Lin Sheng’s dark power threads.
Aside from the asional parrying using their metallic ws, all of them were soon taken down without any exceptions.
Lin Sheng had wanted to try to see if these corrupted monsters could be saved.
He had no concern for the monsters in the dream world, but if someone he cares about were corrupted by the ck mist one day, would there be a chance to save them?
Using the dark power threads, Lin Sheng bound all of the Batwings onto the wall as he made his way to the strongest looking male Batwing.
He held his hand out and ced it gently on the Batwing’s shoulder.
Strands upon strands of dark power pierced into the Batwing’s shoulder like roundworms, as they started squirming within its body.
Lin Sheng dared not use his holy power as its resistance bias was just too strong. Plus the ck smoke was an antithesis to it, and its level was much higher than the dark power.
He then closed his eyes to sense and monitor.
A momentter, the Batwing suddenly opened its mouth as a mechanical cking rang out from its throat as blood started oozing out from the corner of its eyes as ck smoke shot out from its ears and nostrils.
A tumor the size of a head slowly grew in its chest and was gettingrger andrger like a balloon.
*Boom!!*
The then tumor exploded.
At the veryst moment, Lin Sheng activated his dark power crystal defensive matrix and warded off the hail of bone and flesh.
He then took a step back, his expression impassive.
“These Batwings are pretty much walking corpses. Their organs had already long withered away, and only depends on the ck mist to drive their instincts...
“Even their brains are mush with a big part of it missing. I won’t be able to cure them at this stage.
“A pity.”
Lin Sheng then turned to the other Batwings.
Their condition was all the same. The brain part where the memory control was within the Batwings were all gone, and he had no means to cure them.
“Forget it.” Lin Sheng shook his head as hemanded his dark power threads to put an end to them.
A couple of thudster, over a dozen Batwings fell onto the ground, released from their mortal coil.
Lin Sheng waited for a moment and very quickly, streams upon streams of ck lines formed and flew into his chest.
Countless of soul fragments entered his mind, as arge volume of images, sound, memories followed the intense emotions as they crashed like a tidal wave against his soul vault.
After collecting so many souls and memories, Lin Sheng’s soul form was like a star system.
In the center with a faint white-golden halo, was his main soul, and the soul had a very strong gravitational pull to it as countless of densely packed soul fragments spun frenziedly around it.
In the process, these soul fragments were slowly being devoured and absorbed.
That was the process of Lin Sheng absorbing the soul fragments within his body.
And it was the same this time. After absorbing about a dozen Batwing’s soul fragments, Lin Sheng had no time to check them in detail before hearing the ticking of the clock getting louder and louder.
“It’s almost time...” He then leaped back up to the level above and closed the metal cover, then repeated the motion again until he reached the rooftop.
After closing the metal floor cover, Lin Sheng simply just sat on it as his vision blurred and his surrounding started to spin.
Soon, his vision turned ck, and he lost consciousness.
However, two secondster, Lin Sheng’s consciousness returned to him as he once again has control of his body.
The ticking of the clock went away. And soon, he could hear nothing except his own breathing and heartbeat.
Slowly, he woke up from the darkness.
He was sleeping in a temporary bedroom in the basement. It was dark, and only the sound of the venttion exhaust fan spinning.
He justy there for a while.
*Whoof!*
A sudden howl of wind came from the ground and Lin Sheng sprang up as he felt a surge of dark power rushing through. And it was not the only one.
“There are Darksider’s fighting!” His senses were extremely sharp now, and he could urately judge it after a short moment.
“At this time...” He looked at the clock on the wall. “5:20 am. They sure are daring to strike at a busy ce like this. They’re not afraid about the Asterism taking action?”
The manor Adolf had bought for him was the most bustling ce of the town, the Downtown District.
Not too far from his ce was the tallest building in the city, Migan Agricultural Bank. The security of this area was about the same as the city hall area, someone actually dared to strike it.
Something bothered Lin Sheng as he got up and changed into dark long clothes as dark power crystal formed ayer of green mist over his face.
“That’s that.”
He opened the basement door and closed it behind it before his silhouette blurred and disappeared.
...
Henriqc City was thrown into a scene of chaos at dawn.
The streets were empty without any pedestrians as police sirens red all across the area.
There were incidents everywhere.
Asterism had been sending men to aid the local police, but it was futile.
With over a dozen incidents erupting at the same time, with murder and prison breaks, the situation sent panic to the Asterism Superintendent.
Just as Lin Sheng got out, and saw two figures shing before a convenience store about a hundred meters away. One was d in ck police uniform, and another was bare-chested as red glow shone from his waist.
The two seemed to be equal, but Lin Sheng could tell at a nce that the Asterism officer was at his limits.
It was not just him, the dark power auras from a few other battles in the distance, the neutral dark power aura of the Asterism officers were weakening.
“Seems like the whole situation is FUBAR for them.”
Lin Sheng said as he simply raised his hand toward the two.
*Bam!*
A rapid burst of dark power pierced through the bare-chested man’s chest.
He let out a painful scream as he fell backward unconscious, his skin ckened as his mouth foamed.
The Asterism officer was ted and quickly made his way to Lin Sheng.
“They are members of the terrorist group Sevenlocks tower! They are attacking the university while all of the school’s elites away! If you are willing to help, please go to the university!”
“Sevenlocks Tower?”
“The person leading the assault is one of their cadres, the Immtor Kalthalia! I saw him flying over earlier and the Baine University grounds had been under some mysterious lockdown. It must’ve been them!”
After the office quickly briefed him on what was going on, he then went along to support the other officers.
“Cadre? Sevenlocks Tower?” Lin Sheng’s interest was piqued.
This faction actually dared to hit Baine University straight on. Even if most of the school’s elites were already away, there were still a few Five-wingers in it.
“But... there might be something nice like the soul vessels.” With that in mind, Lin Sheng left the ce and dashed toward the university.
