Chapter 86 Moving Forward!
Chapter 86 Moving Forward!
One black chain after another emerged from the cracks in the rocks, coiling around Amber's barrier like vicious venomous snakes.
The edges of the emerald green barrier kept cracking, only to be immediately filled and repaired.
Amber frowned slightly, her platinum dress billowing underwater, her blonde hair dancing wildly, and her chest rising and falling slightly with the casting of spells.
She took a step forward, her hand clenching into a fist. The aquatic plants at the bottom of the lake were forcibly stimulated by the power of the sacred tree, transforming into green vines that swept upwards and tightly bound the black chains.
But this isn't the Sacred Tree Forest, and the water isn't her domain either.
The vines she had created shattered into fragments the moment they wrapped around the black chain in the lake, scattering into the water.
The black chains multiplied, from just a few to dozens. They intertwined and wrapped around the barrier, like a net that was gradually tightening.
Just then, the sword flashed again, as if to remind Chu Sheng.
I'm here.
Come and pull me out.
Pull me out, and you can save her.
He's still trying to seduce me here!
Amber gave a low shout: "Don't look at it!"
As soon as she finished speaking, a black chain suddenly separated, bypassed the barrier from the side, and stabbed straight towards Chu Sheng's waist and abdomen!
Chu Sheng's cat-human agility was instantly activated, but the water resistance was too great. Even though he pressed his body down in time, the black chain still grazed his shoulder.
Whoosh!
The blood streaks spread out in the lake water.
Amber's expression darkened when she saw his injury. She pulled Chu Sheng back to her side, pressed her fingertips to his wound, and the power of the Sacred Tree poured out, quickly closing the wound.
Her face paled, and her fingertips began to tremble.
Chu Sheng raised his hand to stop her from continuing the treatment, but she gently pushed him away.
"Don't touch it." She shook her head.
"Are you still holding on?"
"I'm fine."
"It's alright, I just couldn't hold on any longer."
Amber looked down at him, her eyes gentle: "Silly boy, you've become so smart now?"
"I've always been smart."
"Let's be smart one more time," she whispered. "I'll make an opening, and you swim upwards. Arthur's on the shore; she can catch you."
"Why are you all so similar?" Chu Sheng gritted his teeth. "Am I not human? Am I not human?"
"Now is not the time to argue." Amber sighed softly. "Chu Sheng, what they want is you."
"Oh shit."
Chu Sheng knew that Ambermind valued him highly, even to the point of giving her life for him.
So it's no use talking to her now.
He turned to look at the sword.
Just as Chu Sheng was about to move, An Bowen had already guessed his thoughts and grabbed his wrist: "You're not allowed to go."
Chu Sheng looked up at Amber: "Do you believe me?"
Amber nodded: "I believe you."
"Then let go."
"no."
The black chains continued to tighten, and a crack appeared in the barrier. Amber's face grew paler and paler, but she still protected Chu Sheng, pushing herself forward to shield him.
Chu Sheng suddenly calmed down, his eyes softened, and he whispered, "Your Majesty, I'm in pain."
Amber was indeed distracted and asked anxiously, "Where?"
Chu Sheng immediately struggled!
He slid out of Amber's arms, pushed off with his legs, and swam toward the sword!
forward!
Amber reached out to grab something, but grasped nothing: "Chu Sheng!"
Countless black chains immediately turned around and rushed towards him in a dense swarm!
Chu Sheng stared intently at the sword. The black chain sliced through his skin, and his lungs felt like they were on fire. His whole body ached.
forward!
He could no longer hear Amber's voice; he could only see the sword getting closer and closer.
From the dark depths of the lake, a black figure finally emerged. The figure was hidden in the darkness, its face obscured.
Chu Sheng grinned, because he saw that the dark figure seemed to have a surprised expression.
The lake water rushed into his throat, and he could no longer speak, only mouthing a sentence.
"You're getting impatient."
forward!
Chu Sheng drew his sword!
Hidden skill [Contract ≠ I Agree]: All negative effects of contracts are nullified against you, and you can use the supernatural abilities of your contract partner for one minute each day.
Holy light suddenly shone, piercing the darkness at the bottom of the lake with boundless gold!
Chu Sheng drew his sword!
forward!
EX——
Calibur!!
A golden ray of light swept across the lakebed, and the churning water instantly froze, allowing the ray of light to slice through it like tofu.
The lake was cut open.
The black chain was cut.
The black figure was also sliced open.
At the same time, a black rune was revealed in the black stone beneath the sword.
It looks like an eye.
It suddenly opened its eyes and looked at Chu Sheng, who was also looking at it.
A woman's whisper came from within the eye-shaped rune: "[Hero]...?"
Chu Sheng couldn't hear what came after that, because he had already lost his erection.
One minute has passed.
The counterfeit weapon in Chu Sheng's hand shattered into powder with a snap, the golden light dissipated, and his body went limp as he fell backward.
Amber rushed towards Chu Sheng. She reached out, about to grab Chu Sheng's collar.
But the black rune suddenly exploded, stirring up a powerful undercurrent that swept Chu Sheng into the deeper darkness.
The last thing he saw was Amber's desperately outstretched hand, her emerald-gold eyes filled with panic, her long hair flowing in the water like a blooming lotus.
So beautiful.
On the lake's surface, Arthur suddenly looked up. The calm water ahead suddenly bulged, as if some enormous creature was tumbling underwater.
The next second, the entire lake rose up like a mountain peak, and endless holy light pierced the sky!
"Chu Sheng!" Without any hesitation, Arthur drew his holy sword, which transformed into a golden streak of light and plunged into the lake.
The holy light was activated at maximum power, and a passage was forcibly cleaved through the lake.
Not fast enough!
Arthur gritted his teeth, his holy light surged, and his speed increased again. Visibility in the lake was very poor; pebbles and silt had churned the water into a chaotic mess, and an ordinary person would have long since lost their bearings.
But she didn't need to distinguish; she and Chu Sheng had a contract.
That contract was usually quite troublesome. Because whenever Chu Sheng got close to An Bowen, she could vaguely sense his emotional fluctuations, as if someone had gently scratched her heart, leaving a sour feeling.
But at this moment, this contract became her only direction.
She continued to descend and finally saw the figure being swept away by the undercurrent.
Chu Sheng had his eyes closed, his face was deathly pale, and his clothes were torn.
"Chu Sheng!"
She reached out and grabbed Chu Sheng's wrist, pulling him into her arms. Chu Sheng's body was ice-cold, and he didn't react at all.
Arthur hugged him tightly, and holy light erupted beneath their feet, carrying the two of them straight upwards.
Halfway there, Amber rushed over. Seeing Chu Sheng being held by Arthur, she first breathed a sigh of relief, but her eyes were full of self-blame.
With her last bit of strength, she raised her hand, and the seaweed began to grow wildly from the bottom of the lake, clearing a path for Arthur to float to the surface.
Arthur glanced at her but said nothing.
The two burst out of the water one after the other.
"boom!"
The lake water burst open, and Arthur, carrying Chu Sheng, landed on the shore. She stumbled and knelt on one knee. Ignoring her own safety, she quickly laid Chu Sheng flat on the grass.
Chu Sheng was not breathing.
Arthur froze, gently stroking Chu Sheng's face: "Chu Sheng?"
Chu Sheng did not respond.
Upon seeing Chu Sheng's condition, Amber immediately knelt down on the other side and reached out to check: "He can still be saved; he just has water in his lungs."
Arthur immediately snapped out of his daze and placed his hands on Chu Sheng's chest to begin pressing.
Chu Sheng's body rose and fell slightly with the pressure, but he still did not wake up.
So Arthur leaned down, pinched the tip of his nose, and kissed his lips without hesitation.
