Monsters Are Coming-Chapter 913 - 256: Despairing Overlord Sword, Pain and Pleasure_2

The Divine Artifact Clan occupied the resource area to the north, while the Strong Clan occupied the resource area to the south. A war erupted between the two sides to seize more resource territories.

However, during the confrontation, the Black Tide Evil Spirit descended, creating a black tower in the southern direction where the Strong Clan was located.

At the beginning stage, the combat strength of the Black Tide was not considered strong.

But its growth speed was rapid, continuously devouring nearby resource lands, the black tide ravaged the earth, soon challenging the enemies of the Divine Artifact Clan.

The war progressed in a way where one side's growth led to the other's decline, and the rise of the Black Tide became unstoppable.

When the enemies of the Divine Artifact Clan realized something was wrong and shifted their core forces that were fighting the Divine Artifact Clan to confront the Black Tide, it was already too late to turn the tide.

Ultimately, the Black Tide devoured the enemies of the Divine Artifact Clan, and the terrifying waves of the Black Tide began to spread towards the territory of the Divine Artifact Clan.

Having witnessed the rapid rise of the Black Tide and its terrifying war potential, the clans didn't hesitate for a moment.

They decisively chose to retreat, abandoning vast resource lands, unwilling to have any contact with the Black Tide Army.

Even if this was just a trivial branch of the Black Tide Army.

But without absolute overwhelming combat strength, opposing it would certainly result in becoming nourishment.

With war to feed war, devouring everything, infinite growth, full-system troops... Each Rule System ability mastered by the Black Tide Army warriors was nearly invincible in existence.

It seemed that from the moment of its birth, the purpose of the Black Tide's existence was to destroy everything.

Even randomly selecting an Evil Spirit Warrior from the Black Tide Army, its growth potential was unmatched by the Divine Artifact Clan.

To confront it is to face extinction.

But of course, it couldn't disclose these words to Jiang Cheng, the new host.

"Cough... Ha, so it's the Black Tide." The Overlord Sword feigned calmness and hummed lightly, pretending to be relaxed:

"It's nothing more than a filthy entity that devours worlds as food, just like the things this blade has cut in the past."

But as he spoke these words, Jiang Cheng and Xia Sheng keenly captured the emotional fluctuation emanating from the Overlord Sword, and this emotion was fear.

Just hearing the name brought uncontrollable shivers, making the two feel contempt in their hearts.

In contrast, the old man during his peak at Level 100+ was the true strong one.

With a single strike of True Damage conduction, he cut across the endless Evil Spirit Army, beheading the Black Tide Evil Spirit.

The Overlord Sword's courage wasn't even fit to carry the old man's shoes.

"Rest assured, once I recover my combat strength, I can definitely help you exterminate the Black Tide." The Overlord Sword affirmed once again.

Jiang Cheng's mouth curled slightly, choosing not to expose it directly.

Let it act!

But the premise of continuing to act cool is to be able to provide them with value.

The Overlord Sword that has no value is only fit to be put on the Trading House shelf, allowing them to earn some material fees to offset the cost when accepting tasks.

They traveled a certain distance and found the hunting target.

A white bear, about two meters tall, was foraging in the snow, decomposition swept over it, and its Hunting Level was Level 17.

This was a species unique to the Frost Winter Snow Region, very suitable for beginner hunting, and for Jiang Cheng, it posed no threat.

"Attack, I need Qi Blood Energy for healing." The Overlord Sword urged.

Upon hearing, Jiang Cheng decisively rushed towards the white bear.

As he approached the white bear, his wrist flicked, and the Overlord Sword landed precisely in his hand, its blade instantly piercing the white bear's throat.

Before the scalding blood could splatter, the white bear's body twisted bizarrely and eventually dissipated into strands of black mist in the wind and snow, leaving no trace behind.

But in the view of the Overlord Sword, after the white bear's body shriveled down, it vanished in an instant, leaving only black powder on the ground.

"What happened?!"

The Overlord Sword trembled in Jiang Cheng's hand, the blood groove on the blade opening hungrily:

"Where's the vital blood?"

It was sure this was a flesh and blood lifeform, not elemental, nor spiritual... Upon being killed, it could see the throat gushing blood, but after being killed, it oddly disappeared.

This was its first encounter with such an inexplicable phenomenon.

Nevertheless, Jiang Cheng, the instigator behind all this, remained incredibly calm.

He knew exactly what the Broken Sword was thinking.

If the Broken Sword were to recover its strength, it would be hard to subdue it later.

Therefore, when he killed the white bear, he applied the "tear" trait.

After making contact with the Rule characteristics of the Player System, the Overlord Sword couldn't possibly absorb the Qi Blood Energy.

"Overlord Sword, how much strength has been recovered?"

Jiang Cheng asked with a smile.

"Not enough, I need you to continue hunting monsters, I will eventually feedback you strength."

"No problem." Jiang Cheng nodded decisively, though he felt disdain in his heart.

As a player, the growth feedback obtained from hunting was incomparable to the impure Energy absorbed and fed back by the Broken Sword.

If he truly wanted growth, he wouldn't need to carry this Broken Sword.

His current actions were merely to advance the plot, to see where the plot would go once the Overlord Sword couldn't extract strength.

The Hidden Tasks in the Monster World have always had no restrictions; they can develop whatever way they wish.

3 hours later.

The Overlord Sword fell into despair. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

No matter what living creature Jiang Cheng killed, it couldn't capture even a bit of Energy.

But to keep Jiang Cheng calm, it had to insist that it absorbed Energy, that the efforts were fruitful, and it was recovering.

After some time, it killed several more monsters, but the Overlord Sword still hadn't absorbed a speck of Energy, yet it continued to pretend.

This bizarre phenomenon made the Overlord Sword consider a possibility.

At that time, when passing a battlefield, a sudden appearance of a purple-skinned Evil Demon struck a palm at it, causing the blade to break.
