A Villain's Journey Begins in the Type-Moon World

Without further hesitation, the three charged forward simultaneously like ghosts! They used the huge boulders scattered on the battlefield as stepping stones, each leap covering an astonishing distance, carrying a chilling killing intent as they sped toward the defensive positions built by the Rhodes Island musketeers.

Meanwhile, Inner Guard No. 81 immediately locked onto the figure that had just sniped him. He constantly changed his route of advance, his body moving swiftly and darting between the boulders, trying to evade the opponent's next fatal shot with his unpredictable movement.

Unfortunately, his opponent's attacks always managed to hit his footing precisely, forcing him to swing his sword to defend and slowing him down.

This feeling of frustration made Number 81, who was already in a bad mood, even more angry, and the black energy around him surged even more violently.

"Damn rat, let's see how far you can escape!"

……

On the other side, the one continuously firing at the trio of guards was Scout, an elite operator from Rhodes Island. At this moment, he was using his gun to accurately suppress the enemy while, with the help of Misery's Originium Arts, the two of them were rapidly darting and fleeing between boulders and ruins as if by teleportation.

"This trip was really exciting. I've never had the chance to be chased by three guards at once... It's a pity that I only managed to lure one of them."

Scout's voice remained clear even amidst the high-speed wind, carrying a hint of the veteran's characteristic banter.

"Easy for you to say, but I was the one who ran the main force, okay?" Misery replied irritably, and activated her ability again. The two of them instantly disappeared from their original positions and reappeared dozens of meters away.

"You think you can lure three at once? Do you think I'm not tired enough, or that we're not dying fast enough? Don't worry, the other two will be taken care of by professionals."

"While the Inner Guards themselves are formidable in combat, they are not invincible to us. The real problem lies in the demonic corruption they release after death."

Misery paused, then continued:

"However, since His Excellency the head of state has a way to ensure that the battlefield is not contaminated, we don't need to worry about that part."

As soon as he finished speaking, Scout's brows furrowed. Through the scope, he clearly saw the number 81 inside defender suddenly increase his speed, and the distance between them was rapidly closing.

"He's accelerating...it seems we've completely enraged him. How far is the target location?"

"It's just ahead!" Misery's voice carried a hint of relief, as if she had reached the finish line. "Dr. Kal'tsit is in position!"

Before he finished speaking, Misery activated his ability again, using a super-wide teleport that covered a much greater distance than before. He instantly covered the last few hundred meters with Scout and landed steadily in the shadow of a boulder.

There, a woman dressed in Rhodes Island uniform, with a cool and aloof demeanor—Kal'tsit—stood quietly, as if she had been waiting for a long time. (The latest chapter of "The Villain's Journey Starting from the Type-Moon World" can be read ad-free on the "Renrenshuku" APP, where over one million books are available for free reading. The APP's official website can be accessed at renrenshuku.com.)

"Phew! We've finally made it!" Misery landed, slightly out of breath, and quickly said to Kal'tsit, "Doctor Kal'tsit, the target has been lured here. I'll leave this to you."

"You've worked hard." Kal'tsit nodded slightly, her gaze calmly passing over them and landing in the direction from which the No. 81 inner guard had come. "You all go and rest first, and later proceed to the main battlefield as planned. I'll handle things here."

Misery and Scout exchanged a glance, and without the slightest hesitation, they immediately turned around and their figures quickly disappeared into the complex battlefield ruins.

Everything was going according to plan. Wang Chong had already informed them in advance of the 100,000 Ursus troops and the three inner guards who were following closely behind.

What they need to do now is to strictly implement the established tactics and gradually dismantle the enemy's offensive.

"A Felin woman?" Inner Guard No. 81 finally caught up. He stood atop a boulder, looking down at Kal'tsit below with a sharp gaze, a hint of undisguised contempt and confusion flashing in his eyes. "Those two risked their lives to lure me here, just because of you?"

Inner Guard No. 81 quickly assessed his opponent. With such a slender figure, no matter what kind of mage he was, once he was brought to such a deadly distance, there was absolutely no chance for him to use any Originium Arts! He had to strike first!

Thus, the killing intent erupted instantly. The number 81 inside guard made no unnecessary announcements, giving Kal'tsit no time to react.

The boulder beneath his feet shattered with a deafening roar, and he shot out like a cannonball, enveloped in thick black mist and chilling killing intent. His black sword was aimed directly at Kal'tsit's vitals, launching a deadly thunderous strike, determined to kill her in one blow!

However, faced with this terrifying attack that could tear steel apart, Kal'tsit didn't even blink, and her body remained completely still.

Because in her field of vision, a figure several times faster than the center back had already appeared silently in the blind spot behind the 81st center back's charging path, like a cheetah blending into the shadows, with incredible speed and angle.

*Pfft—Crack!*

The dull thud of a sharp weapon tearing through flesh and bone suddenly rang out.

"What?! Ugh—!!" The roar of the No. 81 guard instantly turned into a painful groan!

As a seasoned imperial blade, his innate battlefield instincts kicked in at the critical moment. He immediately sensed the deadly, icy edge behind him and tried his best to twist and block it.

Unfortunately, the body's reaction couldn't keep up with that terrifying speed at all.

He only had time to catch a glimpse of a dark green afterimage out of the corner of his eye—it was a grotesque black claw blade covered with an Originium-like texture. Like the scythe wielded by the Grim Reaper, it slashed his side with a sharp whistling sound as it tore through the air!

Clang clang clang clang—! You Mei, I Mei, are you thinking of leaving? Lin Zai Zai, are you there yet...?

However, the deadly attack was far from over; the attackers seemed somewhat dissatisfied that their strike had failed to kill instantly.

Accompanied by a low hum, five more spear-like claws, equally gleaming with a dangerous cold light, suddenly sprang out from behind her like blooming flowers of death.

Immediately afterwards, with a devastating force that seemed to tear everything apart, the opponent's six sharp claws intertwined into a destructive net of blades, unleashing a storm of attacks on Inner Guard No. 81!

The No. 81 inner guard was terrified. In this life-or-death moment, he unleashed all his potential, his black sword flashing like an impenetrable black curtain. The only sound was a dense barrage of impacts, like raindrops pounding on banana leaves.

In a flash, he managed to parry four of the fatal claw strikes!

However, this was his limit. The last two claw blades, as cunning and elusive as ghosts, completely broke through his sword's defensive barrier!

*Pfft!* *Snap!*

Two horrifying sounds, a mixture of metal breaking and flesh tearing apart, rang out!

The No. 81 inner guard didn't even have time to let out a complete scream before his tall body was cleanly and neatly cut in half at the waist by two intersecting streaks of dark green light!

His upper body, with an expression of disbelief and horror, crashed heavily to the ground along with his lower body, kicking up a cloud of dust.

The Ursus Empire's proudest weapon was instantly crushed!

The whole process was breathtakingly fast, from the surprise attack to the end, it was over in the blink of an eye.

“Well done, mon3tr.” Kal'tsit’s calm voice broke the brief silence. She stepped forward, took a clean handkerchief from her pocket, and casually wiped away the few specks of blood that had quietly fallen on the cheek of the girl beside her.

The pair of emerald green crystalline horns on her head swayed slightly, like a docile little animal obediently accepting Kal'tsit's wiping, and even rubbing her head against Kal'tsit's palm.

A barely perceptible tenderness flashed in Kal'tsit's eyes, before she regained her cool demeanor and gently ruffled mon3tr's hair: "Go and call your father, and have him deal with the impending outbreak of pollution."

"Mmm!" mon3tr nodded vigorously, his emerald eyes slightly closed, calling out to Wang Chong from the depths of his heart.

Chapter 425 The Successive Deaths of the Inner Guards

After mon3tr made the call, a large amount of black mist surged from the ground in front of mon3tr, and this black mist immediately locked onto the demonic power lying on the ground, which was about to erupt.

When the black mist met the black energy, the viscous, ink-like demonic black energy that had been suppressed on the broken remains of Inner Guard No. 81 seemed to be fatally stimulated.

Suddenly, the black mist surged and expanded violently, and a chilling malice and pollution was about to erupt forth!

However, this black mist was like a greedy beast with life and will; to it, the malice of the black energy was like a delicious and nourishing feast.

In an instant, the black mist completely enveloped and devoured the two severed bodies of the inner guard, along with the churning demonic black energy emanating from them!

chi chi...

A chilling, faint sound, like strong acid dissolving, emanated from within the black mist.

The terrifying demonic power that was about to explode and pollute a large area was instead enveloped by the black mist, and melted and annihilated as quickly as ice and snow, as if it had encountered its natural enemy.

In the end, the demonic power vanished completely, without a trace leaking out. The entire process appeared exceptionally easy and... domineering.

"This is the first time I've seen someone whose power can even absorb demons... That's incredibly domineering. No wonder even that woman was defeated."

Kyle was secretly astonished by the bizarre scene unfolding before him.

The process of the black mist devouring the power of the evil spirits was not only thorough, but also carried an indescribable sense of crushing power.

When she was formulating the battle plan, she did hear from Wang Chong that he could directly devour demons.

Kal'tsit wasn't entirely skeptical; after all, Wang Chong's exceptional strength was undeniable.

However, she still subconsciously believed that Wang Chong would have to expend considerable energy and even pay a price to suppress and dissipate such filthy and terrifying energy.

However, what she saw before her completely overturned her expectations. She had underestimated Wang Chong's strength after all; the pervasive black mist moved with such ease and nonchalance, as if he were merely having a casual meal.

The whole process was incredibly fast, and it exuded an unquestionable, almost tyrannical dominance.

"Sigh... Let's go, mon3tr. The battlefield continues, and there are still more troubles waiting for us to solve and deal with."

Kal'tsit suppressed her inner turmoil, ceasing her investigation into this illogical power. She decisively turned and, with the girl beside her, mon3tr, swiftly fled towards other scorched areas of the battlefield.

……

Meanwhile, similar stalemates have already formed on two other battlefields where the Reunification Movement and the Internal Security are clashing.

The remaining two guards, relying on their powerful "Nation" pollution ability, initially rampaged through the gun-gun defenses as if they were nothing, causing huge casualties and pressure on the Reunion Movement soldiers.

But this advantage did not last long. Their rapid advance was soon abruptly interrupted as they each encountered unexpected and formidable enemies.

Wow! That's some strength!

A dull thud rang out, and the body of Inner Guard No. 34 was sent flying like a kite with a broken string by an immense force.

He staggered and slid for a good ten meters before barely managing to regain his balance. Looking up, he saw two female warriors standing before him, their attire completely different from the Ursus soldiers around them.

The pupils of Inner Guard No. 34 contracted slightly as he quickly retrieved the intelligence from his memory. To facilitate their operations in the Eastern Region, the Empire's intelligence agency had compiled a relatively comprehensive set of data specifically targeting high-combat-power individuals within the Reunion Movement.

The aforementioned information provides a very clear description of the physical characteristics and fighting style of the two women in front of them.

“Iron sword, chainsaw…” he said in a deep voice, with a hint of solemnity, “Are you the two from the Reunion Movement Special Forces, codenamed ‘Orca’ and ‘Shark’?”

"Haha, Skadi, it seems we're quite famous."

Ghost Shark, wielding a massive chainsaw, let out a light laugh, but her crimson eyes were as sharp as an eagle's. With her words, the chainsaw's engine roared to life, power gathering within the weapon.

"Don't be careless, shark."

Skadi, standing to the side, gripped her signature greatsword tightly, her voice low and wary. Her gaze was fixed on the writhing, living black aura surrounding the inner guard, her brow furrowed.

"Beware of that black mist... It's disgusting, the mental corrosive effect it brings... It's just... it's just as unbearable as the nauseating whispers of those deep-sea monsters..."

Skadi said very seriously.

In that brief encounter, Skadi had already clearly sensed the terrifying power of the black aura.

That cold, filthy energy tried to penetrate her consciousness, like a maggot clinging to her bone, bringing intense mental pollution, as if trying to drag her will into an endless abyss of darkness.

If it weren't for her extensive experience fighting against terrifying beings like the Deep Sea Seed, who are equally adept at mental pollution, she wouldn't have developed such an exceptionally resilient mental barrier.

At this moment, they would probably have to concentrate all their energy on resisting this erosion, instantly falling into a passive position, or even temporarily losing their ability to fight.

"Hehe, I was wondering why my ears were so noisy just now, but I'm not afraid of those sounds!"

Before Ghost Shark could finish speaking, his bloodshot eyes blazed with even greater fighting spirit. He pushed off with his feet and shot forward like an arrow, dragging a roaring chainsaw as he charged straight at the number 34 inner guard.

"Clang clang clang—!!"

A series of deafening metallic clangs rang out, sparks flying everywhere. Had their weapons not been forged from the strongest metal, they would likely have shattered into pieces under such violent impact.

"Ugh... my head really hurts..."

After another hard-hitting collision, Ghost Shark frowned, feeling something strange coming from his body.

"...And my body feels so heavy, like I'm sinking back into that damn deep sea...Tsk, no, if I really go back into the sea, what's this little bit of pressure?" Ghost Shark couldn't help but think.

However, after repeatedly clashing with the opponent's sword, which was entangled in evil magic, the ever-present black energy clung to her like maggots, bringing waves of suffocating corrosive sensations and making her limbs feel increasingly heavy and sluggish.

"Beware of the corrosive influence of the dark aura surrounding him!"

Skadi keenly sensed her partner's decline in condition, let out a low shout, and swung her greatsword horizontally with a whoosh, immediately forming a pincer movement with Specter to share the pressure.

Her crimson pupils remained fixed on the ominous black aura emanating from the inner guard, which seemed to writhe like a living thing, causing her brows to furrow as well.

"Hmph, stepping into my 'territory' means you can expect to have your life force completely corroded away!"

The No. 34 inner guard snorted coldly. Faced with the tacit attack of the two, he quickly switched to a defensive stance, his black sword dancing with impenetrable speed.

Although his figure was slightly disheveled from the impact of the enormous force, the eyes hidden behind the mask gleamed with a cold light.

He knew all too well that the corrosive power of evil was like a deadly poison, seeping silently into his very bones over time. As long as he could keep these two troublesome women firmly within his domain, the scales of victory would eventually tip in his favor.

Sure enough, in the ongoing war of attrition, Skadi and Specter's movements became visibly sluggish and heavy, as if each swing of their weapons was exhausting.

Finally, after a fierce collision, the two, whose strength had clearly diminished, were caught off guard by the No. 34 inner guard, who used a backhand sword to forcefully knock them back several steps.

"Hehe, it's time!" The number 34 inside defender keenly noticed the fatigue and weakness of his opponent, and his killing intent surged.

He no longer held back, and the surging demonic power within him suddenly surged forth, like invisible shackles locking onto the target, firmly trapping the two within the territory of the "Kingdom" and cutting off their thoughts of retreat.

Then, the number 34 inside defender thrust his sword swiftly, first deflecting Skadi's "weak and powerless" attack with a single stroke, and then the sword tip, shrouded in black mist, pointed directly at Skadi's head, intending to finish off this powerful opponent in one strike!

"Clang—!"

However, at this critical moment, a sudden change occurred! The greatsword, which should have been deflected and seemed to be hanging limply, suddenly spun around with incredible speed and power, crashing into the guard's sword with the force of wind and thunder! (The last two lines appear to be random characters and do not translate directly.)

"Varied--!?"

The pupils beneath the mask of Inner Guard No. 34 suddenly contracted, filled with incredulous astonishment.

The woman before him should have been completely consumed by the evil power, so why was she able to launch such a swift and precise counterattack?

Moreover, this sword not only deflected his fatal thrust, but the overwhelming force also made his arm go numb and his tiger's mouth split open, almost causing him to lose his grip on the weapon!

But the shock lasted only a moment. The number 34 defender didn't even have time to think about this illogical scene before he felt a sudden, excruciating pain in his left rib area.
