Virus King - Chapter 177

Chapter 177: Demon Warlord! The Activation of Time Reversal!

TL: YYang

Compared to Balhe on the 1st layer, the figure that appeared before him now seemed even thinner and more wiry.

If the Abyssal Well and the Abyssal Will had independent thought, wisdom, and self-awareness, then at this very moment, Chen Bai only wanted to curse at this so-called Abyssal Will!

Why?!

Why was it that for the same level 10 projection, the profession it used was a second-transfer profession?!

Was this fair?!

Was this fair?!

That’s right. At this moment, the towering Demon Lord before him, standing at a full two meters tall, didn’t have the expected first-transfer profession prefix of Demon Warrior above its head.

Instead, it was the damned Demon Warlord.

Although leveling up hadn’t provided a significant boost in stats, Chen Bai still believed that certain abilities would absolutely manifest their potential!

And this was only the 10th Layer!

Was this a trial that a human could possibly complete?!

While internally ranting, Chen Bai’s hand, holding the Biochemical Disaster, had already extended forward once more!

“Human? A human dares to attempt the great trial of the Abyssal Will? I, the great Lord Aodu, admire your courage. But even with only level 10 power, I will still cut you down!”

Chen Bai didn’t bother responding to this bastard’s nonsense.

Whoosh.

The Influenza Virus flowed steadily from him as he exhaled.

At the same time, Chen Bai launched himself into an active assault.

At this moment, although the cooldown of certain abilities prevented him from unleashing his full strength, and the buff from Hellfire Envelopment wasn’t activated, his strength, agility, and physique had already reached levels unimaginable for an ordinary person.

Yet, the figure before him also seemed to be testing the waters, using no special skills. The massive battle axe came crashing down, and at this moment, Chen Bai found no advantage in the direct clash of strength and agility!

Of course, compared to him, the demon Aodu was even more shocked. He stared in disbelief at the human in front of him!

After all, he had the stat bonuses from his profession advancement!

Moreover, he possessed the real bloodline of a demon. Even if the Lesser Demon bloodline was relatively weak, there was no reason why he should lose to an un-advanced human!

Could it be that this human was actually a young dragon in disguise?!

Or did he have the bloodline of a Behemoth Giant?!

Otherwise, how could he possibly compare to him?!

Aodu instantly dispelled his earlier contempt. His entire body began to radiate with a blood-red aura, as if undergoing a transformation akin to a Super Saiyan!

The Demon Warrior profession, although considered a relatively low-level profession in the Abyss, was one that many demons could naturally advance into if they remained unclassed.

However, this in no way meant that the profession was weak.

The activation of demonic blood dramatically enhanced the demon’s weaponry and physical body, taking it to an unprecedented level of power.

This was the Demon Warrior.

If Chen Bai had no trump card, he would definitely not risk it. He could rely on the Influenza Virus to slowly wear the enemy down. Though it wasn’t impossible to defeat Aodu this way, it would be risky.

But Chen Bai did have a trump card. His goal was singular: to identify these enemies’ weaknesses and, through battle, to find a more effective way to bring them down!

Without hesitation, Chen Bai launched himself forward again.

Simultaneously, three flying swords swirled into action once more.

“Crack!”

The massive axe struck directly, shattering Chen Bai’s left arm. The limb hung limp, barely attached by a strip of flesh and skin. Yet Chen Bai didn’t even furrow his brow. Instead, he simply observed the berserking opponent before him.

Aodu differed slightly from other low-level Demon Warriors, though there were still some similarities. For example, like the others, he lacked agility, and once his Blood of Combat was activated, his reasoning diminished, and his defense weakened.

Of course, in this process, Chen Bai had managed to probe out some details. Compared to other Demon Warriors, Aodu, in addition to Sword Qi Shockwave and Blood of Combat, possessed two particularly troublesome skills.

One was that this guy’s overall strength and agility increased as his injuries worsened.

The other… was now right before Chen Bai’s eyes!

Chen Bai had sacrificed an arm to launch an attack, only for it to be blocked by the demon’s Demonic Blood Armor that had suddenly manifested over his body.

With increased attack power and compensated defensive weaknesses, all Chen Bai could say was that this truly lived up to being a second-transfer profession!

Yet, Chen Bai did not show the slightest sign of frustration. He ignored his limp and useless arm, which hung loosely by his side.

He continued searching for Aodu’s weakness.

“Die…”

The Demon Warrior, his eyes tainted with a crimson glow, charged at him with wild abandon. In his bloodshot gaze, Chen Bai had already become a defenseless piece of meat on the chopping block.

And indeed, that assessment wasn’t entirely wrong.

In his attempts to identify Aodu’s weak points, Chen Bai’s body was riddled with injuries. There wasn’t a single unscathed patch of skin left.

Even with the regenerative effects of Activated Cells and the Blacklight Virus, injuries like these could not be healed completely before death caught up to him.

But Chen Bai wasn’t bothered. As he watched Aodu’s massive battle axe descending, his eyes suddenly lit up!

Even demons had weaknesses. And this one, despite its formidable defenses, was no exception.

Underneath the raised battle axe, a barely noticeable gap appeared under Aodu’s arm.

However, this observation seemed meaningless at this point.

At that very moment, the giant axe was already descending!

“Die, you damned human!”

To Aodu, this human was like an annoying fly. But unlike flies, Chen Bai was far more tenacious—even more so than the most resilient demons. His rapid healing was infuriating beyond belief.

Finally, though, Aodu felt he could end this foolish human’s overconfident challenge once and for all!

And yet, just in this instant, the human—whom Aodu thought was as good as dead, like a fish on the chopping block—suddenly had his eyes blaze with brilliance. The next moment, this near-dead human abruptly returned to perfect health.

Then, Chen Bai’s Biochemical Disaster pierced forth, shooting directly into the gap under Aodu’s raised arm and stabbing straight into his heart!

Thud!

The demon’s powerful body prevented him from dying immediately, but Chen Bai paid him no further attention. Instead, he murmured to himself:

“The advanced profession of the Demon Warrior, the Demon Warlord, has full-body Demonic Armor. Its weak point is the underarm.

But that might not always be the case. It could just be this guy’s specific weakness. I need to stay cautious…”

Then, under Aodu’s resentful gaze, Chen Bai stomped on his head, crushing it completely.

Afterward, he proceeded to begin the challenge of the 11th Layer of the Abyss.

Even Chen Bai hadn’t realized it yet, but starting from the 10th Layer of the Abyss, he had already been forced to use the Time Reversal ability of the Time Hourglass for the first time.
