Novel Bin Chapter 261: Level 3 Teleportation
Chapter 261: Level 3 Teleportation
There was a moment where his figure blurred and seemed to freeze, signifying the force preventing him from teleporting that originated from the tentacles and their owners, the devourer.
Gao Yang’s power was greater than the devourer’s, thankfully, and he teleported successfully.
In an instant, he appeared fiver meters away, while the devourer appeared where Gao Yang had been.
Splat.
The two bladed legs buried into the devourer’s chest and pierced through its body, pinning it to the ground and killing it before it could even make a sound. Its body went limp, and the tentacles wrapping around Gao Yang’s ankle loosened.
The fact that it had mistakenly killed its fellow monster didn’t stop the freerider for even a second.
With a powerful stomp, it pulled its legs out of the devourer’s body, charging at Gao Yang again.
Gao Yang was going to teleport when he was forced to stop, catching two slaughterers on his two sides, both about five meters away from him.
Gao Yang didn’t turn around, but he could make an educated guess that the overtaker using bone stings must be five meters behind him, waiting for him to bite the bait.
They had predicted his teleportation!
As the thought flashed through his mind, the freerider had gotten close to Gao Yang. It twirled as it dashed and brought its bladed leg up to swing it toward Gao Yang like a greatsword.
Gao Yang teleported.
The bladed leg missed, and when the freerider landed, it sensed a current coming from above it, but there wasn’t enough time for it to react.
Gao Yang had teleported above the freerider and utilized the momentum of his fall to grab the monster’s head and slam it to the ground.
Bam!
The freerider fell, its head colliding with the ground, cracking it.
“Fire!”
With a low shout, Gao Yang shot flames from his palms, and in less than a second, the fire spread from the freerider’s head to the rest of its body.
“Ahhh—”
On fire, the freerider screamed in pain, while the other three monsters swarmed up to Gao Yang.
Swoosh!
Gao Yang disappeared along with the freerider he was burning, leaving only charred marks on the ground.
Showing up five meters away, Gao Yang was still holding onto the freerider’s head and burning it with Fire.
Seven seconds had passed. The freerider became dead to the world under the overwhelming pain of being burned, unable to put up a fight.
At the same time, Gao Yang felt a burst of warmth rushing from his feet to the top of his head, and all the cells in his body screamed in pleasure, stimulated at the same time.
It was like a little death.
Teleportation had leveled up.

[Luck: 454]
In his moment of distraction, the surviving three monsters rushed up to him.
They were no longer Gao Yang’s match.
He let go of the freerider and got to his feet, slowly letting out a breath.
The two slaughterers advanced upon him, swinging their bladed arms at him.
With an Agility of 1100, Gao Yang didn’t even need Teleportation to avoid the attacks. Light as a swallow, he stepped from side to side amid the relentless slashes like an elegant waltz. More than ten seconds later, Gao Yang spotted an opening. He moved to the side to avoid a slash while kicking the other slaughterer in the abdomen, knocking it back.
All the while, he didn’t neglect to throw a small fireball at the overtaker in the distance, preventing it from ambushing him with its bone stings.
Then Gao Yang dove toward a slaughterer and grabbed its bladed arm, twisting it and thrusting it forward. With splattering blood, the blade ended up piercing into the monster’s own chest.
It wasn’t done yet!
Gao Yang put his back into it, pushing the bladed arm through the slaughterer’s chest, protruding from its back.
Teleport!
With a short delay, Gao Yang and the slaughterer teleported to the other slaughterer.
Thud! The two slaughterers collided, and the bladed arm pierced into the chest of the other slaughterer, skewering both monsters.
Chest pressed against back, the two monsters collapsed to the ground.
There was one more left. Gao Yang teleported without turning around, avoiding the bone stings sneaking up on him from a distance.
A second later, Gao Yang appeared before the overtaker, the last monster standing.
He eyed the monster coldly, giving it one second to react like a taunt.
Losing its calm, the overtaker jumped back instinctively and retracted the bone stings before attacking Gao Yang again.
Having predicted its movement, Gao Yang teleported behind the overtaker almost without delay, and at an impressive speed, he grabbed its wrist and skillfully shifted the direction its hand was facing.
The three bone stings shot out—piercing not Gao Yang’s body, but the overtaker’s own chin and head from below.
Thud.
The last monster fell.
Gao Yang quietly accessed his system. The luck points acquisition bonus no longer applied. The battle had come to an end.
He panted and wiped off the blood on his face, turning around.
Qilin was still standing on the stone stairs of the altar, holding a cane with his weight slightly shifted to one foot. There was a gentle smile on his face, as if what had taken place wasn’t a bloody battle but an entertaining tennis match.
“Like I said, it’s easy to reach level 3 with a Talent.”
Gao Yang felt conflicted. At the risk of offending the man, he couldn’t help but ask, “Did you keep these monsters yourselves, Guildmaster?”
Qilin shook his head. “No, you did.”
“Me?” Gao Yang was even more puzzled. “I don’t understand.”
“You don’t have to.”
Qilin walked down the stairs with his cane, the graceful smile gone from his face. And his gentle eyes turned sharp and aggressive.
“There’s another reason I took you here today, Seven Shadow.”
Alarm rang in Gao Yang’s head.
He was immediately alerted, but he didn’t let it show. “What is it, Guildmaster?”
“I’m sorry. I can’t keep you around.”
Gao Yang started. What did he mean? Was he going to kill him? Was this a joke?
No, it didn’t seem like it.
“Guildmaster, I...” Gao Yang tensed up, his heart racing and his palms gathering energy secretly. “I don’t understand. Have I done something wrong?”
“No, you’re a remarkable member, and you’ve done very well. Unfortunately, you aren’t one of mine, not really.”
The dark look on Qilin’s face made him seem like a different person. “You’ve got to understand, Seven Shadow, that we cannot have another Elder-level spy in the Guild, or our foundation will waver.”
Gao Yang’s heart sank. His first reaction was to run.
But he didn’t, because he knew he couldn’t.
Qilin must have taken him here because he knew he could keep him here. The only thing Gao Yang could do was make the last attempt to get out of this predicament.
“I don’t know what you’ve heard from whom, Guildmaster, but I’m no spy.” Gao Yang met Qilin’s gaze, doing his best to seem honest.
Qilin took another step forward with his cane, saying nothing.
The small step brought overwhelming pressure upon Gao Yang.
[Warning, you are in extremely great danger.]
