Reincarnation Paradise Park-Chapter 660 - 54: The Changes in the Corpse

After reviewing the information on Neerapan, Su Xiao frowned. The combat strength of this creature was weaker than imagined, but its survival ability was very strong.

Within five minutes of death, it can split once. The number of splits is unknown; it shouldn’t be too many, and the individual strength won’t be stronger than the original mother body.

The living environment on the Dark Continent is harsh. Without this kind of survival ability, survival and reproduction on that continent would be impossible.

Moreover, before these Neerapan attacked, Su Xiao heard the shouts of the Neerapan leader: ’There is abundant water here.’

This means that Neerapan is a creature highly dependent on water. In the absence or shortage of water, splitting or reproduction might be inhibited.

This is just Su Xiao’s guess and needs further confirmation.

At this moment, the outer barrier was full of finger-width cracks and was on the verge of breaking.

With a crash, like glass shattering, the outer barrier disintegrated into countless light points and disappeared. A large group of Neerapan swarmed forward, and a heavy earthy smell hit the nose.

Su Xiao stood alone at the opening of the front gate with Dragon Slash in hand, while those Contractors joined forces to defend the rear gate. Su Xiao could clearly hear the shouts of those Contractors.

"They’re coming!"

"Trap them outside the barrier. If the defense line is breached, we’ll all die, so don’t be cowardly."

From the direction of the rear gate came a rumbling noise, with three mages furiously bombarding it. Among these mages, there was one Fire Element Mage. The power of fire magic was quite strong, and with his naturally cool appearance, he was popular.

The other two were an Arcane Mage and a Death Mage. Their magic wasn’t flashy, but it was astonishingly powerful. Especially the haggard-looking Death Mage, who summoned an Undead Knight clad in blue flames, rushing out of the rear gate, rampaging through the Neerapan, knocking them upside down.

The National Team Brothers were closest to the rear gate. These three clowns, surprisingly fierce now, each wielded a large golden Energy Hammer. Any Neerapan struck by them would be left standing in place even if not dead, obviously indicating that their attacks included control effects, and each attack was accompanied by this effect.

The National Team Brothers had clearly grown much stronger. Previously, their Energy Hammers could only be used as a one-time control skill, but now the hammers were enlarged and had become their regular weapon, with each attack carrying a 0.3 to 2-second dizziness effect.

Just imagine, if the three brothers attacked one person, the persistent dizziness from the hammers would be unsolvable. Without strong immunity to control, even the toughest enemy would be hammered to death by the three brothers.

Even more outrageously, each of the brothers was a top-class main tank and could heal each other.

With the three blocking the rear gate’s barrier gap, the other Contractors only needed to focus on attacking, and the Neerapan outside had no way to rush in.

Additionally, half a minute into the battle, the Contractors discovered that these Neerapan would drop treasure chests, which were green and blue ones. However, the number of Neerapan was enormous, and if all were slain, the yield would be quite extravagant.

The fact that treasure chests dropped indicated that Neerapan weren’t the Contractors’ summons but storyline creatures. However, Contractors killed by these Neerapan would drop Scarlet Cards, a scenario that typically only happens when Contractors kill each other.

This anomaly must be related to the Clown. If the Contractors in the auction house were all killed, the number of Scarlet Cards obtained would be astounding.

Before entering the Hunter World, the Clown had used this method to almost wipe out the Contractors of five Derivative Worlds, with hundreds indirectly dying at his hands.

By evening out the drop rate of Scarlet Cards from several Derivative Worlds, as long as the Clown’s luck wasn’t too bad, he would have obtained at least a hundred Scarlet Cards.

Compared to the Clown, the Hunter Alliance’s behavior of hunting Contractors was child’s play.

At the rear gate barrier, with the National Team Brothers standing in front, Fan Girl and others enjoyed an exceptionally delightful slaughter.

The rear gate was being defended without any weak spots, but the Neerapan’s combat abilities were undeniable and fearless in death. This made Fan Girl and others a bit worried about the defense at the front gate, as there was only one person there. If the front gate were breached, they would be pincered, and even with the assurance of the National Team Brothers, Fan Girl and others were still uneasy.

"Is that melee fighter called Bai Ye really okay?"

Fan Girl temporarily withdrew from the front line and turned to look toward the front gate. At this time, the first-floor hall’s decorations and partitions had been violently dismantled so that the front and rear gate defenses could support each other. 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

As Fan Girl turned to look at the front gate, she first saw a couple who were both staring, dumbfounded, at the direction of the front gate.

"Such power... is on another level."

"Honey, can a knife really be this strong? Maybe I should develop my sword technique."

Hearing the couple’s words, Fan Girl couldn’t help but look toward the front gate. Having witnessed the Neerapan’s fearlessness in death, she doubted whether Su Xiao could guard the front gate.

A pile of Neerapan corpses was stacked at the gap of the front barrier, and she didn’t see Su Xiao.

Through the transparent barrier, Fan Girl saw the scene outside, with splattering blade lights and blood.

The Contractors at the rear gate barrier were defending within the barrier, using the terrain advantage of the barrier gap against the Neerapan. However, the situation at the front was different. A large number of Neerapan corpses were piled at the gap of the front barrier, and the person guarding it was already outside the barrier.

Dozens of hexagonal energy shields floated, and Su Xiao was holding a long knife while slaughtering within the Neerapan group. Any Neerapan within three meters of him was immediately slain.

"Surprisingly reliable."

Fan Girl no longer paid attention to the front gate situation and turned back to the battlefield at the rear gate.

...

One meter outside the gap of the front barrier, Su Xiao was being besieged by Neerapan surging from all directions. Fortunately, these Neerapan could only attack from the front, which he could handle.

With continuous slashes of the long knife, several Neerapan were either beheaded or bisected. The Dragon Slash of dark purple quality, with sharpness +17, was extremely sharp, especially aided by the Supreme Blade Edge Effect 2.

Shadow Dance Break (Passive): Ignore 25% of enemy defense, reduce enemy healing effect by 40% after inflicting a slash wound, effect lasts five minutes. (Reduction of healing effects includes: use of healing items, healing skills, etc.)

...

Su Xiao didn’t activate Blue Steel Shadow because there was no need. The Neerapan’s stamina attribute was 32 points, lacking any outer shell defense, making it easy for Dragon Slash to slice through their bodies like cutting melons.

Neerapan hit at vital parts were dealt with in one strike, and those hit at limbs were immediately crippled.

Against the Neerapan’s assault, Su Xiao not only felt no pressure but became more excited in the kill.

"Ring Break."

Zing!

A ring-shaped blade aura spread out, and all Neerapan within a dozen meters stood still. Moments later, their bodies were cut in half from the chest.

The Neerapan was densely packed; after Ring Break’s slash, over a hundred Neerapan perished around.

Flicking off the blood stains from Dragon Slash, faint green and blue gleams shimmered on the ground, with a dozen treasure chests appearing nearby, creating a shocking scene.

Su Xiao had no time to deal with these chests because a new batch of Neerapan was already stepping over their comrades’ corpses to charge forward.

Just as Su Xiao was about to face the new batch of Neerapan, a change occurred in the pile of Neerapan corpses blocking the front barrier gap.
