Starting With 3 S-Class Talents Chapter 340
Advertisement
In front of Dark Yuan City, Vincent used his flame leap to appear in front of Linus. He had already planned everything in advance.
He used his Flaming Wings to attack. Although he was not able to wipe out the Dark Elves who were blocking the city gates, he could at least force them to open a path for Avril and the others to leave.
Linus could sense danger the moment Vincent appeared. He immediately ordered the Dark Elves behind him to retreat to the sides. However, Linus did not move at all. He remained where he was and faced Vincent's attack head-on.
Just as Vincent's Flaming Wings were about to hit him, he suddenly began to mutter in a low voice, "O mighty God, Gajero, please protect me!"
As soon as he finished chanting, a layer of dark halo rose from Linus's body. It instantly enveloped his entire body and blocked Vincent's Flaming Wings.
Vincent observed the demonic aura that had suddenly appeared in front of him. He felt as if he was looking directly at Gajero. A mix of anger, greed, and tyranny emerged from deep within his heart.
Vincent was instantly triggered by the darkness in his heart after sensing the aura of the Demon Race at a close distance. He felt like he was being possessed on the spot!
However, Vincent was someone who had faced Gajero in person before. He quickly suppressed the dark emotions in his heart and controlled his Flaming Wings to start burning rapidly, enveloping Linus within. He wanted to burn him to death on the spot.
Linus, who was protected by demonic energy, was unusually tenacious. He remained unharmed despite Vincent's flames.
At the same time, Avril and the others ran past Vincent. As the other Dark Elves were unable to stop them in time, they managed to rush out of the city gates successfully. They then ran straight towards the distant mountains.
"Don't worry about me, go after them!"
Linus's voice was heard from within the flames.
The other Dark Elves were in a daze when they heard Linus's voice coming from within the flames. After making sure that he was fine, the Dark Elves continued to chase after Avril and the others.
Although Avril was fast, she had to slow down in order to dodge the arrows and spears that kept shooting at her from behind. She tried her best to dodge, but the Dark Elves were catching up to her.
Vincent could not help but feel angry. He activated the flame authority and transformed the flames around Linus into a fishing net. He wanted to use the net to suffocate him and destroy the protective barrier that was formed using the aura of the demons.
Linus, who was in the flames, said in an extremely relaxed tone, "It's useless. Flames cannot defeat magic!"
Vincent narrowed his eyes and shouted in a deep voice, "It's not up to you to decide whether you can win or not!"
Linus sighed in a complicated tone, "I once believed in fire, but the truth has defeated my faith. That's why I chose to believe in the strongest power!"
Vincent was not in the mood to chat with Linus about faith. After seeing that he was unable to hurt Linus using his flames, he immediately pulled out the Return Journey of the Dead from his waist and slashed at Linus.
The Return Journey of the Dead did not have a blade, but it carried the weight of a world. Although Vincent did not manage to break the protective barrier around Linus, he still sent him flying.

Linus, who was shrouded in black gas and flames, flew into the air in an instant. He drew a perfect parabola and descended onto the base of the city wall.
After getting rid of the troublesome Linus, Vincent did not bother to stay any longer. He immediately chased after Avril and the others.
As the Dark Elves were extremely fast, they managed to catch up to Avril and the others.
Once again, Avril, Angelina, and Kurt were surrounded by the Dark Elves.
Although Avril and Angelina had recovered from their injuries, their abilities were still inferior to that of the Dark Elves. At the same time, they were also at a disadvantage in terms of numbers. It was no doubt difficult for them to escape!
At that moment, a black shadow suddenly appeared behind the Dark Elves. It raised its hand and stabbed the Dark Elves from behind.
"Ah!"
The Dark Elves screamed. Their hearts had been pierced. They cried out unwillingly before dying.
The black shadow pulled his arm back and rushed towards the other Dark Elves.
All the Dark Elves were killed in an instant!
Avril and the others finally saw the black figure that had suddenly appeared in front of them. There was a layer of black gas surrounding his body and face. He was wearing a black assassin's cloak and his two arms were like sharp blades. Given his strange clothes and features, it was obvious that he was not from the Dark Elves Race.
However, where did he come from?
Avril looked at the strange alien carefully and asked in a low voice, "What do you want?"
The strange race that had just killed many Dark Elves at lightning speed suddenly became a little awkward. He looked at Avril and wanted to say something, but he could not utter a single word. So, he just stood there quietly.
Avril did not expect the other race, who was so swift and decisive a moment ago to suddenly become so shy. However, if this dragged on, more Dark Elves would catch up to them sooner or later. After doing a quick calculation, Avril quickly grabbed onto her ten-meter-long broadsword. She was ready to attack the strange alien that had suddenly blocked her way.
At the same time, Vincent finally caught up to them. After seeing the scene, he could not help but shout, "Don't do it, we're all on the same side!"
Avril was startled. She did not know when Vincent had met another strange race, but she still put away the weapon in her hand as she trusted Vincent.
The strange race that Avril was afraid of saw Vincent and quickly waved at him. He said, "Master, you were so fast. It wasn't easy for me to get here!"
The strange race was none other than Ebenezer, who had entered the Dark Elves World with Vincent. He was the first to attack Dark Yuan City. However, as Vincent started flying halfway through, Ebenezer was not able to catch up to him. Instead, he caught up with the fleeing humans.
Angelina and Avril were even more surprised when they heard Ebenezer address Vincent. They thought that Vincent must have had a hard time as he was alone when they separated. However, they did not expect him to have actually taken on a disciple!
Vincent did not have time to explain to everyone at that moment. He ran forward and said, "Now is not the time to talk. Enter the mountain range immediately!"
Whether it was Avril, Angelina, or Ebenezer, they had never doubted Vincent's words. They immediately ran to the mountain range nearby. They followed the undulating mountain ridge and ran all the way to the deepest part of the mountain range.

The Dark Elves who were pursuing them could only watch as they escaped through the vast mountain range. They beat their chests and stomped their feet in anger.
As Vincent and the others were uncertain whether the Dark Elves would chase them into the mountain range, they did not stop running until late at night. Finally, they stopped running and sat down in the forest, panting non-stop.
Avril turned her head to look behind her. She did not hear any footsteps and said to Vincent, "I don't think the Dark Elves will be able to catch up to us!"
Vincent nodded and said, "Then let's spend the night here! Everyone, rest up first and recover your energy. Then we'll think of a way to deal with these Dark Elves!"
"Alright!"
Everyone agreed in unison. After resting, Ebenezer took the initiative to stand up. He took out food and a simple tent from his storage ring. He then began to prepare dinner and accommodation for everyone.
Vincent took the opportunity to build a fire in the forest. He sat in front of the fire with Angelina and Avril and told them about his experiences during this period of time.
Angelina and Avril's faces were filled with worry and heartache when they heard about the cruel rules of the Arena of Life and Death.
They revealed nervous and expectant expressions when they heard that there were countless races in the capital of Ultimate Evil and that Vincent was traveling alone among a group of high-level creatures.
Vincent also told them that he was not fighting alone and that he had a female confidant named Irene who was conspiring with him. Avril and Angelina could not help but reveal ambiguous smiles on their faces when they heard this.
Vincent looked at Avril and Angelina with some confusion and asked, "Hey, what are you guys thinking?"
"We were actually worried that you wouldn't have anyone to take care of you during this period of time. Now it seems that we were overthinking it!" said Angelina with a smile.
Avril, who was sitting at the side, also said, "We sisters have a sincere heart for you. No matter how many women you have by your side, as long as you have the two of us in your heart, that's good enough! But when we were searching for you bitterly, you were accompanied by beauty. Isn't that a little too much?"
Vincent explained helplessly, "You guys really misunderstood. Irene and I just wanted to leave the capital of Ultimate Evil. That's why we started working together. Moreover, we were in such a dangerous situation. How could I have any other thoughts?"
After listening to Vincent's somewhat embarrassing explanation, Angelina and Avril were not angry. Instead, they smiled and said, "Alright! We're just joking with you. We have experienced many life and death battles together. How could we not understand your character?"
Vincent smiled helplessly. It had been a long time since they got along in such a warm and tacit way.
At that moment, Kurt suddenly said, "Sir Vincent, I just checked the information from the Esville Race. I did not find any information about the Dark Elves. I can only find information about the Elves. Could it be that the Dark Elves have some kind of relationship with the Elves?"
Vincent shook his head and said, "When I was in the Arena of Life and Death, I've seen some elves. Their appearance is basically the same as the Dark Elves, but their pupils will show different colors according to their abilities. They are not as dark as the Dark Elves, so I'm not sure what the specific relationship between the two is!"
Angelina could not help but say, "If the Dark Elves are really part of the Elves Race, doesn't that mean that the elves actually occupy several worlds? Because we haven't seen any other elves here!"
Vincent shook his head again and said, "Impossible! A race will only be confined to its own world. After all, before the appearance of the Black Holes, most creatures could not even leave their own world! Even if a small portion of them could do it, given the overall strength of the elves, it is simply impossible for them to do it!"
Avril frowned and said, "That is to say, the relationship between the Dark Elves and the elves is very likely to be the same as the relationship between the elves and the humans. Are they brothers from the same origin?"
Vincent nodded and said, "That is possible!"
At this time, Ebenezer had already prepared food for everyone. He handed the steaming lunch boxes to everyone.
Ebenezer sat next to Vincent and asked, "Master, now that we have found the people that you are looking for, why don't we take the opportunity to leave? Anyway, these Dark Elves have not invaded other worlds, so we can ignore them for now!"
Vincent replied firmly, "It doesn't matter if they've invaded other worlds or not. The issue is that they believe in Gajero here, so I definitely can't leave. At the very least, I have to understand the relationship between these Dark Elves and Gajero!"
Ebenezer nodded. He was just asking out of curiosity. He was not trying to persuade Vincent to leave. As long as Vincent gave a definite answer, he would do it without any hesitation.
After Vincent ate two mouthfuls of food, he turned to look at Ebenezer and said, "Go and investigate the surroundings first. Grasp the terrain here, so that we can continue our journey tomorrow!"
Ebenezer who did not have to eat the way humans do, nodded, and immediately replied, "Your disciple understands!"
He then got up and walked into the depths of the mountain range.
After Vincent and the two sisters had a simple dinner, they were prepared to rest.
However, after they saw the tents that Ebenezer had prepared, the three of them once again fell into an awkward dilemma.
As Ebenezer had always carried equipment around for his own use, he was not very wealthy in terms of quantity. Only three tents were set up. Apart from Ebenezer's tent, the other tent was occupied by Kurt, leaving only one tent available for the three of them to use.
Although Kurt was only a robot and did not need to rest, Vincent had always treated him as his teammate. He would never treat him differently.
Therefore, Vincent and the two sisters could either take turns sleeping or sleep together.
"Why don't the two of you rest first? I'll wait for Ebenezer to return and take turns to stand guard with him tonight!" said Vincent softly.
Avril held onto Vincent's arm boldly and said, "We'll be yours sooner or later. So, what if we sleep in the same tent? We don't need you to stand guard tonight. Let's go!"
Angelina was also influenced by her sister's boldness. She held onto Vincent's other arm and was prepared to lead him into the tent.
At that moment, the sound of birds dispersing suddenly came from the distance and attracted everyone's attention.
Vincent could not help but look at the two women. The three of them understood that they might not be able to sleep that night!
"Kurt, you stay in the camp and wait for us to come back!"
Vincent turned his head and instructed Kurt, who was studying the Dragon Race's materials.
Kurt nodded and replied, "Okay, don't worry!"
Vincent then brought Angelina and Avril to the direction where the noise was heard.
Vincent had been paying attention to the surrounding movements along the way, but he did not find Ebenezer. He could not help but become more worried.
Suddenly, Avril pointed at a bush by the hillside and exclaimed, "Look here!"
Vincent and Angelina immediately went forward to look and found that the bush was in disarray.
It was obvious that someone had fallen into the valley along the hillside.
After seeing this, Vincent immediately said, "Let's go down and take a look. Remember to pay attention to your safety!"
The three of them made up their minds and began to walk down the steep hillside towards the bottom of the valley. However, the valley was filled with tall trees and dense forests. As it was nighttime, there was no light at all, so it was difficult for them to see their way forward clearly.
Vincent could only raise his hand to throw a fireball towards the bottom of the valley. He then used the flame authority to control the fireball to transform into a net of fire that lit up the interior of the valley.
Soon, they had a full view of the interior of the valley.
What shocked them was that the interior of the valley was not the primitive forest that they had imagined. Instead, it was a piece of debris. It was obvious that there were signs of life here!
Avril looked at the traces of buildings in the valley. She was trying to picture the original appearance of the buildings in her mind. However, she soon noticed that in the middle of the valley stood a very tall building that had not collapsed. She could not help but sigh, "What is that?"
Vincent looked up and frowned.
"It looks like a dilapidated ruin. Ebenezer may have found it. Let's go and take a look!"
Avril and Angelina nodded together. Under the illumination of the fire, the three of them quickly entered the valley and headed straight for the building.
When the three of them arrived in front of the building, they immediately noticed that it looked somewhat familiar. The layout of the building was very similar to the sacrificial altar of Gajero in the city of Dark Yuan. This meant that this should be one of the sacrificial grounds in the history of the Dark Elves. However, for some reason, it had been abandoned and had become desolate.
Vincent raised his head to look at the front door of the building. The stone door that looked like it was made using a huge boulder had already been pushed open leaving behind a small opening. It looked like someone had just entered.
Vincent said softly to the two women, "Let's go in and take a look!"
He then lit a ball of flame in his hand as a torch and walked in front. He led the two women into the stone door.
As the light shone, a magnificent temple appeared in front of the three of them.
There were seven statues in the hall. However, due to the messy cobwebs and broken pieces, the three of them could not see the seven statues clearly.
Vincent swept his gaze across the hall and suddenly saw a figure lying in the corner. It was Ebenezer!
"The two of you stay here. I'll go and take a look!" said Vincent to Avril and Angelina.
He then walked up alone to check on Ebenezer's condition.
No external injuries could be seen on Ebenezer's body. However, he had fainted.
After confirming that Ebenezer was fine, Vincent turned to the two women and said, "There's no danger for the time being. Come in first!"

EDIT(June 18): So I should warn you guys, I have been told that the chapters have too many info dumps. This is a shortcoming that i am now aware of thanks to comments and reviews mentioning that fact. Since i know many readers enjoy the character interactions much more, that is what im planning to increase with my future chapters. I would say only my more recent chapters have decent amounts of character interactions and this is what i will take a larger focus on from now on. Although there will still be information presented, I intend to not make them so long. If you can get past the info dumps, you may like the story. Who knows. EDIT(August 19): The summary above is new. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I dont usually do this... but if you like TLK, this story, then feel free to check out my other work: http://royalroadl.com/fiction/5893
