Chapter 448: Monster that triple-tasks

It was remarkable for her to survive for three years when she was thrown into an uninhabited island filled with beasts at the age of three. She had already lost count of the number of life-and-death situations she had encountered by the age of six. There were all kinds of battles she had to fightagainst beasts, against illnesses, against pain, against loneliness, against herself. After her tears were drained dry, she understood the cruel reality of massacring! Massacre! Massacre! Or die.

She possessed the purest instincts of massacring because she had undergone countless of battles. She had undergone countless cruel battles that were to kill or be killed.

After engaging in countless massacres, she had affirmed the meaning behind life, so how could that be swayed?

How could her thoughts of massacre which were colder and tougher than ice mountains be wavered because of an appreciation of his intelligence?

It could not waver. In a beast-filled island which you have no idea when you would be bitten or ripped to death, once your will to survive wavers, you would lose the courage to survive. Her will could not waver.

Kill him, kill him, kill him

Dawn was constantly retreating. The irritation in her heart was growing in intensity. The black-haired youth constantly stuck close to her like gum. As for her, she constantly told herself to kill him, but she could not do it.

That was because she did not want to lose his voice!

Damn it, damn it, damn it!

The girl remained expressionless, but her eyes turned myriad and complicated.

In the intense battle, she constantly found time to look at that exquisite face and that pair of black eyes. All she saw were eyes that remained expressionless but were burning.

He did not say a word nor did he make any sound. All he did was quietly chase after her.

How irritating!

How irritating!

How irritating!

Why arent you saying something?

Theres no harm to striking up a conversation even in battle, right?

Even some malicious derision would do!

Hey, quick say something.

Why are you suddenly so quiet and serious? Why do you keep chasing in such a deadpan manner? Are you so eager to clinch victory in this battle?

Indeed, indeed you should have been killed!

You

Bastard!

Finally, she could not tolerate any further as that single word came out of her mouth in a very natural manner. It was like a chime that suddenly trembled.

The voice that sounded like a beautiful chime was not emotionless for the first time. Furthermore, it was not like a curse filled with anger. Instead, it will felt like a coquettish complaint that was filled with grievance. The word she said had a hint of a frail girls charms.

Was that my voice?

How could that be my voice!?

The girl was given a shock from her subconscious voice and emotions. In her daze, her arm was nearly hit by the youth, but she was eventually unable to fully dodge it, causing a tiny tear to appear on her sleeve.

The girl retreated in a hurry. Her usual calmness prevented her from panicking, but she felt a sense of embarrassing vexation.

Seeing how the youth had charged towards her once again with a deadpan expression, that stance of attacking while disregarding everything else and that quiet and ice-cold silence made her suddenly think of a scene she did not want to recall.

A horde of ferocious beasts were charging at her in a frenetic manner. They had red eyes and cold killing intent, so regardless of how loudly she screamed, they would not respond or show any pity to her. They opened their gaping mouths which dripped with gross and smelly saliva. In between their sharp fangs were pieces of remnant flesh.

The beasts in her memory slowly overlapped with the youth in front of her.

At that moment, vexation turned to anger!

Anger was the source of killing intent!

A purple beam suddenly bloomed as the girl slashed out to clash with the youths sword!

Sword Truth!

The girl who had been in a dilemma finally reached her tolerance limit. She produced killing intent and activated her Sword Truth!

The girls sword slashed at the youths waist. Midway, it was blocked by the black sword, and at the same time the white sword was thrust towards her chest.

But this time, the girl finally did not retreat. After she activated her Sword Truth, her strength immediately was able to overwhelm the youths. The black sword could only block for a moment before he was left open. Her sword swung straight at the youths waist. Her fair left hand that was covered in a purple glow and psionic power held the white sword that was thrusting at her chest firmly!

Its over. Dawn sighed in her heart.

Even though it was just a moment of rage, it was sufficient to generate killing intent within her. And having already figured out Shi Xiaobais fighting style, the balance naturally broke the moment she activated the power of her Sword Truth.

At the moment when victory was imminent, she felt a pain in her left hand. Although she had used the power of Sword Truth and psionic power to protect her left hand, she had grabbed the sword with her bare hands. The sharp sword beam was still able to slice through her palm. As blood oozed out, it dyed her hand and the white blade in her hand red.

But at the same time, she could sense that her sword had slashed at Shi Xiaobais waist.

Her strike was one that even the new Transcendent King who was proud of his physical toughness could not withstand, much less a weak human.

The outcome was decided and his fate was sealed.

At the next moment, his body would be sliced into two.

Bam!

A clash echoed but the sword that cleaved at the youths waist flew out like a rocket and spun a few times in mid-air before landing firmly on the ground.

The girl suddenly widened her eyes.

How is it possible!?

Her sword had failed to slice through the youths waist!

What sort of monster-like defense was that!?

Dawn was extremely shocked as her eyes landed on Shi Xiaobais waist. She attempted to discover the truth to the matter before seeing psionic power that was gradually dissipating.

Psionic Hardening?

The girl frowned slightly. That was one of the most basic uses of psionic defense. It used psionic power to hardened ones body but it was limited in range. It needed greater precision as compared to Psionic Shield or Psionic Barrier, but its defensive ability was the best.

There was dissipating psionic power around Shi Xiaobais waist, which clearly indicated that he had used Psionic Hardening.

But he was able to precisely use Psionic Hardening under the present situation?

Could this fellow actually triple-task?

It was well known fact that people were at their weakest while attacking. As offense and defense were two complete measures, it was very difficult to dual-task.

Dawn had used offense and defense simultaneously just a moment ago. At the same moment she slashed Lucifers Sword at Shi Xiaobais abdomen, she had used her left hand to grab the white sword that was thrust towards her chest. That was not something easily done. She needed to be able to dual-task in order to accomplish it.

And it was because she had experienced it which made her know how hard it was to dual-task.

However, Shi Xiaobai had just used his the black sword in his right hand to defend while attacking with the white sword in his left hand. At the same time, he had precisely used Psionic Hardening to increase his defense. This was triple-tasking that was much more difficult than dual-tasking!

Dual-tasking and triple-tasking only differed by a single number, but the enhancement from one to the other was like heaven and earth.
