Blood Warlock: Succubus Partner In The Apocalypse Chapter 46

Bai Zemin felt a great amount of pain coming from inside his wrist. The pain was such that he wasforced to grit his teeth to prevent a grunt from escaping his mouth. However, that excruciating painsoon began to turn into itching, extremely uncomfortable itching! Fortunately, that feeling was alsoshort-lived, probably thanks to Kang Lan’s skill.

Kang Lan’s face turned completely pale and her previously red lips began to lose their color as if shewas suddenly suffering from some kind of illness. She staggered slightly at the sudden dizziness thathit her mercilessly, fortunately, Bai Zemin had already expected something like this to happen due tothe fact that he himself had experienced the same feeling during his battle against the First OrderBlazing Beetle after spending all of his Mana abruptly.

“Good job, Kang Lan.” Bai Zemin smiled slightly at her and nodded as he gently supported her whilekeeping her from falling.

“No… It’s nothing.” She forced a smile. Although she was exhausted and felt somewhat nauseated asa consequence of using all her Mana in such a short time, she actually felt extremely satisfied sincereceiving such praise from Bai Zemin, who was usually indifferent and casual with others, meant thathe really appreciated her previous act no matter how small it was.

He looked at Cai Jingyi and said in a deep voice, “Cai Jingyi, support Kang Lan and help her rest.”

Cai Jingyi nodded and quickly stepped forward to support her and they both retreated inside thebuilding.

After freeing himself, Bai Zemin looked at Fu Xuefeng and Zhong De in front of him and began to givea series of simple orders and instructions about what they were to do next.

Meanwhile, Liang Peng, Chen He, and Shangguan Bing Xue were preparing to start and implement thethird part of the plan to defeat the zombie. Although they weren’t 100% sure if it was a First Orderevolved creature or not, in this new world where death was only half a step away it was best to prepareas best as possible to even fight the weakest enemy.

“This should be enough.” Shangguan Bing Xue retracted both hands as she panted softly. Her chestwas rising and falling steadily as a small bead of sweat slowly slipped down from her beautiful face thatnow looked sickly white instead of perfect white as before.

In front of her was an ice stake about half a meter long. Along the length of the ice stake were icespikes about five centimeters long that pointed outward. It was a weapon with great piercing power,capable of entering the target’s body with ease and, because of the spikes along the body in theopposite direction, it would be extremely difficult for anyone who was pierced by it to break free easily.

“Are you okay?” Chen He asked as he patted her back.

“You don’t need to worry. I’m fine.” Shangguan Bing Xue shook her head gently and took a step forwardto pick up the ice stake to take a better look at it.

Although the stake was extremely thin as a stick and looked extremely fragile, Shangguan Bing Xuewas confident in her creation. After all, she had consumed 90% of her Mana, which was why she wasso mentally exhausted.

Not only had Shangguan Bing Xue concentrated practically all her Mana into this small half-meter icestake, but she had also packed every bit of her magical power into it and had focused every cell of herbrain into her creation. To say that this ice stake was the strongest and most enduring weapon she hadcreated so far with her ice skill was by no means an exaggeration.

To test her theory and to check the strength of the object, she asked Liang Peng to hit the ice stakewith his hammer while using all his strength.

“If this thing breaks don’t blame me later.” Liang Peng couldn’t help but scratch his head as he lookedat the small stake.

“If it can’t resist at least that much, then the plan we came up with earlier will never work in the firstplace.” Shangguan Bing Xue replied coldly.

Liang Peng shrugged his shoulders and raised the hammer high. With loud roar, he struck downwardwith all his might as he made use of the weapon’s weight to the perfection.

Bang!

With a mighty bang, the ground shuddered as if it would collapse at any moment and several cracksappeared extending over a meter long. However, to Chen He’s surprise and Liang Peng’s disbelief, theice stake under the hammer that had taken the brunt of the impact actually didn’t even splinter since itstill released that bone-chilling coldness that seemed to be able to freeze everything.

“Impressive!” Chen He praised honestly.

That earlier strike should have been able to knock down an entire wall but the ice stake thatShangguan Bing Xue crafted withstood it like it was nothing!

Shangguan Bing Xue also nodded and a hint of satisfaction flashed in her eyes.

“I see you guys are done here,” Bai Zemin returned, directly jumping to the upper floor and enteringthrough the window. Although such a thing was impossible in the past, with his current stats such athing was no longer a big deal.

“All done here.” Chen He replied as he looked at him curiously and asked, “The things on your side,finished?”

“Finished.” Bai Zemin responded and sat in a corner while checking his left hand.

Before, Bai Zemin estimated that he would need at least one more week for his fractured wrist to fullyrecover. However, he was pleasantly surprised to discover that he now only needed approximately fivedays to fully recover.

The reason for this was, naturally, the Lesser Healing skill used by Kang Lan on him.

Of course; Kang Lan’s Lesser Healing skill alone was not the reason for Bai Zemin’s quick recovery.The other important reason was his overwhelmingly high Health stat which, compared to a normalperson, was speeding up his healing process almost tenfold!

With 90 Health points and Kang Lan’s skill along with his high magic power compared to a normalperson, the speed at which Bai Zemin was recovering was simply astonishing. Bai Zemin estimatedthat, with treatment twice a day for three days, his broken bones would be reattached and repaired.

A small smile appeared on his face as he thought about how incredibly great the difference in powerwas between the past him and the present him. Bai Zemin couldn’t wait to see what the future held forhim.

Of course, first he needed to survive the next battle in which a scratch meant death. Only then was itpossible to think about a possible future. However, if he couldn’t survive even that much, then it meantthat somewhere along the way, sooner or later, he would end up falling.

While Bai Zemin checked his physical condition, Shangguan Bing Xue had sat down in another cornerto recover the consumed Mana. After all, she was an essential fighter in the upcoming battle.

Moreover, occasionally, she looked in his direction with complicated eyes; there was hate, but therewas also gratitude; there was approval, but there was also rejection. Complex and opposing emotionswere constantly mixed together.
