You call this a healer?

Chapter 33 Ah Liang and Li Lan's Frustration

The third night.

The attacks were even more ferocious than last night, and the numbers seemed to be greater.

Lin Ya and Zhong Xiu turned pale and fought back desperately. However, they discovered a rather fatal situation: in just over two days, the ten Yuan Essence they had brought to quickly replenish their energy had been used up.

In other words, apart from sleeping during the day and using mental techniques to replenish vital energy, one will not be able to sustain high-intensity consumption throughout the night. Once the vital energy is depleted, one will be useless.

Lin Ya turned to Zhou Ming with a pained expression, pleading, "My vital energy is completely depleted, and my essence is gone too. What should I do?"

Zhou Ming, who was racking his brains for a suitable excuse to go out and "solo" alone, immediately said seriously, "This is normal, this is perfectly normal. Here's what we'll do: when your energy is depleted, you guys go back to your rooms. Don't push yourselves too hard. I'll keep watch outside the door..."

……

Three hundred meters away, Chenjia Heishuiqiu Station No. 22.

Ah Liang and Li Lan were using specially made night vision binoculars to observe the situation inside Station 73.

They were assassins sent by the Chen family. Leaving Zhou Ming in the wasteland was a death order given by Master Chen.

However, they haven't found a suitable opportunity in the past two days. After all, with Lin Ya and Zhong Xiu around, they can't kill Zhou Ming without anyone noticing.

Why doesn't this kid go out and take a dump or wander around?

At this moment, Ah Liang said, "Those two girls should be completely exhausted. What a pair of idiots! With such offensive methods, they thought they could get high scores? Compared to the geniuses of the three major high schools, Chaofan, Qinglong, and Xuanwu, they are utter trash! If it weren't for Zhou Ming..."

He paused for a moment, then asked Li Lan, "By the way, did you understand what skill Zhou Ming used?"

Li Lan frowned: "The distance is too far, it's a bit blurry, I can't see clearly. How could a healer have that kind of skill? This kid is a bit strange."

"What's so strange?"

Ah Liang scoffed, "A mere level two healer, even if he defies the heavens, how could he possibly escape from two level three experts like you and me? Really..."

Before he could finish speaking, he froze, then pointed sharply: "Why did he run outside? How dare he run outside?"

Li Lan was also taken aback when she saw Lin Ya and Zhong Xiu return to the wooden building at the station. Zhou Ming first sat alone outside, then got up, walked around, and when he went around to the back of the wooden building, he suddenly took a running start and rushed into the group of supernatural beings. Then, he disappeared.

? ? ? ?

For a moment, their minds went blank.

What happened?

Ah Liang said in a deep voice, "Take the Exorcising Beads. Any deity below the third realm can't get close to us. Shall we go and take a look?"

……

One hundred meters away from the station, Zhou Ming sprinted as fast as he could.

The light between heaven and earth was dim, and countless strange figures in the black mist appeared indistinctly, some tall, some short, some ferocious.

His body was shrouded in gray smoke, and his strength as a level two "god-killer" had reached its peak. After shaking off the encirclement of the gods and the chaotic attacks of various forces, he pounced on the nearest mantis-like god.

The Flying Eagle Claw slammed down.

"Pfft—"

This praying mantis was strangely half-clawed, but it was still alive and struggled to lunge forward.

It was at this moment.

Zhou Ming immediately stretched out his right hand, and the gray vortex pressed down on its head with a violent force, "devouring" it.

The mantis's body froze for a moment, as if all its strength had been drained.

[Realm +0.02%]

[Non-attribute Strength +0.02]

[Bloodlust Claws +0.5%]

As expected, even if a living deity is at the same level, the power it can devour is stronger than that of a mere corpse.

Immediately switch to the "Healer" profession to absorb the crystal, then skillfully scoop it out with your fingers, completing the whole set of actions in one smooth motion.

At this moment, a large number of strange phenomena rushed up from all around, including violent whirlwinds, water spheres, mounds of earth, shouts, and poisonous barriers, making it impossible to defend against them.

Fortunately, with the suppression of realm and the abnormal speed and powerful physical defense of the "Godslayer", it can be completely ignored.

He repeated the same method, using the "Godslayer's" super speed to dodge and weave, then picked up any lone deities, killed them half to death, devoured them, and mined their crystals.

There was no time to observe how much power was "devoured" as the god-killer and healer switched back and forth to absorb it.

One, two, three... five... ten... thirty... fifty...

Wherever they went, strange corpses lay scattered everywhere.

There's no need to worry about killing them all; the number of strange creatures in the wasteland is countless.

At that moment, an endless stream of wondrous things rushed in.

He keenly spotted a second-realm ape-like being in the distance and rushed towards it, circling around it.

"?"

"What did I see?"

"Is this a healer?"

Behind a hill, surrounded by layers of supernatural forces, Ah Liang and his companion, relying on the faint blue light of the "God-Expelling Pearl" on their bodies that could slow down the supernatural attacks, squinted at Zhou Ming in front of them, becoming more and more astonished as they looked.

Whose healer is so powerful?

He moved with incredible speed and agility, effortlessly navigating the encirclement and pursuit of hundreds of supernatural beings. He even managed to kill one of them, "slap its head," and seize its crystal, all in just a few seconds.

Even for them, who are at the third level of order, it would be difficult to do it as skillfully as him. What's even stranger is that the guy didn't bring either the "God-Expelling Pearl" for self-defense or the "Azure Incense". How dare he do it?

Ah Liang gritted his teeth: "Never mind, there are too many supernatural beings in the wasteland. You and I are both Level 3 Order Beings, with too much blood energy. We might be targeted by a large number of Level 2 supernatural beings. Even with the God-Driving Pearl for protection, it will be difficult to escape back. Let's do it!"

The two immediately leaped up, fiercely smashing through the large group of first-level divine beings, and headed straight for Zhou Ming.

……

"fall!"

A divine being of the second realm ape type, standing three meters tall, possessing the talent for a heart-wrenching roar and the power to explode with a single step.

If an ordinary Level One Order member were to encounter this, they would undoubtedly die.

However, Zhou Ming's "Godslayer" class, with its speed, strength, and ferocity of its two skills, completely overwhelmed opponents at the same level.

Dodging the roar and explosive shockwave, he punched the ape's strange chest, shattering it and splattering blood everywhere.

While the ape was swaying, he raised his right hand and slapped it on the head to absorb the energy.

[Realm +0.7%]

[Non-attribute Strength +0.08]

[Abyss Burst Shock +0.8%]

A living second-realm deity, with such abundant power to devour!

This bug-like method of leveling up by defeating monsters has no side effects, it's so satisfying! No wonder the "Godslayer" ranks third on the list of sinful order followers.

He swiftly extracted the "crystal," turned, and dashed off to find the next two-realm divine being.

That place is too wondrous to be impressed.

After all, one second-realm divine being is equivalent to five first-realm divine beings, so why bother with that effort?

Just as they moved their feet, two violent waves of wind came from behind them, followed by the sound of a sword rang out and a burst of blazing flames.

He turned his head sharply and saw two young humans, a man and a woman, in their thirties, rapidly approaching.

Are there other people here?

Judging from his aura, he's... a Level 3 Order Being?

Are there any Level 3 experts among the freshmen taking the monthly exam?

No, something's off about these two. They're coming at me.

Zhou Ming instantly thought of many things: the Su family? The Chen family?

However, even though the "Godslayer" class can ambush and kill enemies of higher levels, he was neither confident nor in the mood to fight two opponents at once, especially in this godforsaken place.

With a light tap of his foot, he darted away into the distance.

"Where to go?"

Ah Liang and the other man looked at Zhou Ming, who was right in front of them, their voices low and their eyes flashing with extreme killing intent. With a sway of their bodies, they used the escape techniques of level three experts without reservation.

However, there were simply too many supernatural phenomena. They had only advanced a short distance when they were surrounded by a dense, overwhelming array of these phenomena, with countless supernatural spells raining down upon them. Even they felt their scalps tingle, as if they were trapped in a quagmire.

In contrast, Zhou Ming was killing a second-realm divine being, a "flower demon," in the distance.

Li Lan said in a deep voice, "Now that we've been exposed, and he's alone, we can't get close to him. What should we do?"

Ah Liang angrily said, "Let's keep chasing them!"

……

Its daybreak.

The supernatural beings retreated, leaving behind only their corpses and thick blood.

A Liang and Li Lan, who had never caught up with Zhou Ming, sat on a hill, their hands tucked into their sleeves, lost in thought.

"That kid is a bit strange. I can't understand what he's doing at all. I'm not even sure if he's a healer or not."

"Whether it's true or not doesn't matter anymore, how are we going to kill him?"

"See? On our way to catch him, all the mystical entities along the way were drawn to him, forming a vast swarm of them that blocked our path, making it impossible for us to get close to him!"

"What if we outflank them and intercept them from the front?"

"Do you know where he'll go? Last night he made twenty-seven U-turns and took thirty-two detours!"

"?"
