Sword Saints Should Go Tank Chapter 46

Chapter 46

Lu Chen tried to stop the mist but he who has nothing but a strong body and brute force couldn't do anything to stop it from leaving.

No matter how hard he tried, the mist still disappeared a few moments later.

Lu Chen was demotivated to see it leaving.

What a shame. This misty Evil is definitely a big deal. If I had killed it, I'll definitely be rewarded with over a thousand Mastery Points.

Although he was saddened, it has already left. Thus, Lu Chen had no choice but to turn back around and return.

However, just after he has taken two steps forward, a chill was felt in his head.

It was an alert coming from the Intuition. He didn't dare to hesitate and immediately turned his head around in the direction where the alert was felt coming from.

He didn't have to search the area as at the very instant he looked back, he saw a pretty little girl smiling back at him with a bowl of water in her tiny hands.

She looked harmless, a pure and innocent little girl who offers nothing but only goodwill.

However, the settings were not right. Those who find her presence here in the dark cold night as normal would definitely be an idiot.

Without even trying to find out what's her story, Lu Chen raised the metal sword up in his hands.

Then, he strode forward while bringing the metal sword straight down at her. He was planning to crush her down in one heavy strike.

But she wasn't showing any sign of fear of Lu Chen's brutality. Instead, she used all of her energy and raised the bowl up in her hands at Lu Chen and she asked, “Big brother, do you want to drink water?”

Lu Chen rolled his eyes to her game.

Brat, just what kind of idiot will drink that water in this eerie night?

He didn't even slow down even when he was thinking in his head. In just a few steps, he has reached up to the little girl's front.

Then, he suddenly retracted the sword in his hands and said, “I'll drink it!”

After he said it, he didn't wait for her to answer and picked up the broken bowl himself from the little girl and drank all the water in it.

It was such a weird move to make.

However, if one looked carefully enough, they would realize Lu Chen's muscles have tensed up and his veins were bulging while he has a contorted face.

Clearly, he didn't drink the water on his own will.

However, no matter how hard he resisted, he still drank all of it.

Just like he expected, the water wasn't just water.

At the moment it went down his throat, Lu Chen felt a burning sensation inside of his body.

The pain from it was so intense that even when Lu Chen has the Conqueror's Haki enhancing his will, he still bent his body in hope of relieving the pain while his face contorted out of shape in pain.

Despite the extreme pain, Lu Chen didn't lose his conscious nor was it able to affect Lu Chen's thoughts and actions.

After all, both Master Swordsmanship and Conqueror's Haki have enhanced over 20 points in his Willpower.

At the same time, after he drank all the water, Lu Chen regained control back over his body again.

He raised the metal sword up without hesitation and slammed it down at the little girl.

However, she didn't even flinch when the metal sword covered in Lu Chen's blood was hitting her. Immediately, Lu Chen knew he made the wrong move.

He was right about that.

Bang—

Lu Chen's metal sword moved through the girl's body as if she wasn't there at all and slammed straight onto the ground.

He made a huge hole on the ground that once again proved his appalling strength, but he has no time to appreciate his strength now and his attention was drawn to some other thing else.

I've gone for the wrong target. The girl isn't the Evil!

Right after Lu Chen realized, the little girl said again, “Big brother, you looked like you are sick. Quickly, take some water and rest!”

After she said it, Lu Chen realized the broken bowl in his hand was suddenly filled with water.

At the same time, his body moved on its own and he drank all the water again.

This time after drinking it, Lu Chen felt not a burning sensation but an intense cold. It was as if he ate a block of ice and he was frosting from the inside.

The sudden change between extreme hot and cold made Lu Chen cough violently.

Lu Chen was even a little afraid of coughing up his internal organs.

However, he wasn't consumed by fear, and instead, 20 points of Willpower helped him made up his mind.

Not only has he not stop the cough, he even tried to cough harder.

The violent coughs made the little girl giggled happily.

“Oh no, big brother, you don't look good. Come, have another sip…”

Before she finished her sentence, the smile on her face suddenly turned into fear.

“Stop it, faster stop…”

She cried in fear while Lu Chen's contorted face smiled ruthlessly.

“Fear? Why are you afraid? You should be happy now. Look just how much blood have I coughed up.”

Yes, he was now coughing up blood. Not only has he not stop trying to cough, he even took the initiative to cough even harder. At the same time, he forced himself to cough blood out of his mouth.

He didn't cough the blood at the little girl, he was coughing it at the broken bowl.

As the Willpower enhanced his determination, he was able to get it done even when it means he has to injure himself. In just a few seconds, the broken bowl was filled with Lu Chen's blood and dripping from the sides.

The transcended blood of the Barbarian Blood Warriors was greatly effective against the Evils. At the moment his blood touched the bowl, dark black smoke has risen from the bowl. As more smoke was released, the little girl's body grew more blurry. Which was why she suddenly became scared.

She even started pleading for her life to be spared out of fear.

However, she wouldn't have the chance anymore.

Lu Chen has the Barbarian King's Bloodline flowing in his veins. As a result, his blood was much stronger than the others and in just a few moments, the huge amount of Vigor has cleansed the Evil bowl.

As the bowl turned red in color, the giggling little girl also disappeared in fear.

[System Message: Host has killed a Black Coffin Vicious Specter—Water-Delivery Bowl and earned 700 Mastery Points.]

When he saw the little girl disappearing before his eyes and after he heard the system message, Lu Chen's contorted face finally softened and he heaved a breath of relief.

I was right. This bowl is the Evil.

But even though the Evil was defeated, Lu Chen's condition was not looking good either.

Whatever the water it was he drank, it was still inside of his stomach, rolling and causing havoc in his body.

Extreme cold and extreme heat were constantly changing in Lu Chen's body, it was as if a time bomb was placed inside of him, he felt like it might explode and kill him any second now.

He inferred that if it was an ordinary human that drank it, one bowl would be more than enough to claim their lives.

Fortunately, Lu Chen's 46 points of Constitution gave him the prowess to tank it through.

He endured the pain and struggled to make his way back to the totem pillar's protection.

“Master Chen, are you alright?”

“Ah'Chen, I'll get Master Wuzu here right away!”

The barbarians were panicking over Lu Chen's horrible state.

However, Lu Chen stopped them and said, “Wait, pass me the jars, now!”

“Here, here they are…”

Lu Chen's command was executed right away and they passed him the jars of herbal soup to his sides.

Then, Lu Chen brutally opened the jars and gulped the herbal soup.

The warm herbal soup flowed down his throat and into his stomach, nourishing his body.

Soon, Lu Chen felt the warmth in his stomach and his condition turned better.

But it was only after he finished three full jars of the herbal soup that he felt his life saved from death.

Of course, it was Lu Chen's Intuition that helped him confirm that he was saved.

But right now, he was still feeble.

He rested for an hour full until he fully digested the herbal soup. Then, he opened his mouth and coughed out a few mouthfuls of black blood.

It was only then he smiled.

I survived.

Coughing up the contaminated blood was the best indication that he has finally escaped from death.
