Whoosh-

The longsword drew a curve in the air with a spin, and Song Jian hurriedly blinked to dodge it.

At this moment, Song Jian saw Robert suddenly took out a palm-sized black metal piece from his armor and threw it towards him.

Seeing this object, the name “T-11 High-explosive Grenade” suddenly emerged in Song Jian’s mind.

“Damn it, this guy has such a powerful weapon!” Song Jian was scared out of his wits and didn’t care about the bloody and ghostly poison tree. He directly teleported to the third floor of the Manor Castle.

Boom-

With a loud bang, the entire Manor Castle shook slightly. The castle’s door was blasted open, leaving a big hole while dust spread like smoke.

“This is a Level 3 Stone Castle Door with a defense of 800, and it was blown open by a single grenade?” Song Jian couldn’t believe his eyes.

“If you had such powerful means, why didn’t you use it earlier? If you had, the bloody and ghostly poison tree would have been wiped out long ago…” Song Jian was somewhat speechless.

At this point, Robert has less than a hundred Vitality left. Even though he used a T-11 High-explosive Grenade to blast open the castle door, it couldn’t change the current situation.

If Robert had used the grenade to blow up the wall and the castle door in the beginning, the swarms of monsters would have rushed in. No matter how high the defense of Song Jian’s Manor Castle was, the main task might have ended in failure.

“Alex, stay away from that guy!” Song Jian hastily ordered.

Although Alex had recovered a third of his Vitality, he couldn’t withstand the power of a T-11 High-explosive Grenade explosion.

Having his autonomous consciousness, Alex had already fled far after witnessing the power of the T-11 High-explosive Grenade and didn’t dare to approach Robert anymore.

After leaving the Spirit Field and assuming human form, Alex’s Vitality steadily decreased. Giving up attacking Robert, Alex darted through the breach in the wall and went on a killing spree among the rank 5 monsters. For a rank 6 elite boss, the rank 5 monsters in front of him were merely food.

After throwing the high-explosive grenade, Robert was inexplicably stunned and began to tremble slightly.

Song Jian also didn’t dare to blink and attack him. The range of the high-explosive grenade was not small – if Robert turned into a suicide bomber and took his life, it wouldn’t be worth it.

So they stared at each other for a while, one standing on the third floor of the castle and the other in the courtyard. Then Robert let out a long sigh.

“I’ve guarded this city for three hundred years. 1 didn’t expect that I would ultimately cause its destruction…” Robert suddenly spoke.

Slowly taking off his helmet, Robert revealed his pale face, high nose, sunken eye sockets, and distinct facial features. The Western man’s face looked quite handsome, but Robert’s eyes were still burning with two clusters of green flames.

“Caesar, I never thought you would be the one beside me in the end…” Robert bent down and stroked the horde of the colt that had turned into dry bones. A trace of reluctance appeared on Robert’s face.

After a while, Robert began to remove the armor he was wearing. The armor, similar to a medieval heavy knight’s, usually required the help of a squire to take off. Robert couldn’t remove many parts on his own and eventually had to use brute force to break it. The heavy armor fell to the ground, and he wore a gray tight-fitting suit. He jabbed his longsword into the ground and looked up at Song Jian, shouting, “Divinely Favored One, do you have any interest in coming down to listen to me…”

Just as his words fell, a sharp wind came from behind, and Robert’s face changed. A bitter smile appeared on his face.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh-

A dozen tree roots pierced through, like spears, from Robert’s back, directly penetrating his body and emerging from his chest.

Black-red polluted blood flowed out of Robert’s mouth, and the ghost fire in his eye sockets flickered;

“This, perhaps, is destiny…” Robert sighed, his knees buckled, and his body lost all strength. His hands hung weakly, and if not for the roots of the Bloody Hellish Poison Tree supporting his body, he would have fallen to the ground by now;

At the moment after Robert’s death, the monsters besieging Song Jian’s manor seemed to suddenly wake up from their slumbers and scattered with roars;

Watching the remaining few dozens of monsters, a smile appeared on Song Jian’s lips;

System: Congratulations to player Song Jian for successfully creating the Safe House “Level 1 Manor”! Main mission completed, mission evaluation greatly improved;

System: Congratulations to player Song Jian, killing [LV10 Roaming Zombie-Robert], completing side mission “Guardian’s Demise”, and obtaining side mission reward [T-11 High-explosive Hand Grenade Blueprint].

System: Congratulations to player Song Jian, level up to 10, opening player chat channel! You can communicate freely with other players in the player channel;

System: Congratulations to the player for completing the main mission and being able to leave the game. You have three hours left in the game. When the time is up, you will be forcibly removed from the game;

After Robert’s death, a golden light burst out from Alex, the Bloody Hellish Poison Tree, and his level increased to Elite Level 7; recovering his vitality by devouring more than a dozen monsters outside the manor;

At this point, Alex’s bleeding had increased from 1 point/second to 3 points/second. The longer it stayed away from the Spirit Field, the more vitality it would lose;

“I don’t know what else Robert would have said in the end…” Song Jian appeared beside Robert’s corpse, looking at the body lying on the ground, deep in thought;

Next to Robert’s corpse, there was a blue-quality long sword, a Skill Book, and a revolver-like firearm, also in blue-quality;

“Two blue-quality equipment, one Skill Book. The drop quality of Robert, this Level 10 Elite Boss, is quite high!” Song Jian was a bit surprised, but just as he was about to bend down to pick up the items, several roots suddenly drilled out from the soil, and in a flash, swept up the three items, dragging them into the mud;

“Damn you!” Song Jian was furious;

Level 10 Elite Bosses had already died by the walls today, over five of them. But they were all lacking, dropping only green-quality materials, which were all devoured by Alex anyway. The items dropped by Robert were considered a bigger harvest this time, and in the end, they were snatched by Alex first;

Alex strode back to the manor, ignoring Song Jian’s angry gaze, returned to the Spirit Field, his thick legs transforming back into countless roots plunged into the soil, and his hands slowly spreading out to form umbrella-like branches. The face formed on the trunk also slowly disappeared, returning to a somewhat eerie-looking big tree;

“You, you…” Song Jian was speechless for a moment while pointing at Alex, who had resumed his tree form. Feeling a suffocating sensation in his chest, he wanted to vomit blood. It took him a while to regain his composure and shift his attention to the system prompts;

Main mission completed, side mission completed;

However, this side mission seemed to have skipped many steps, jumping straight to the final kill, omitting much of the process;

“It’s a chain mission, and the final reward is just a blueprint. It’s a bit too simple…” Song Jian, rubbing his chin, looked at the “T-11 High-explosive Hand Grenade Blueprint” in his inventory, deep in thought;

Looking up, he saw the towering tower in the center of the city, hundreds of meters high. That was the place where Robert, once the city’s guardian and now a Level 10 Elite roaming zombie, had fallen;

The second round of the side mission only required reaching the Tower of Falling, to search for clues about Robert’s whereabouts;

“It seems 1 should go there again. Maybe there are some good things left there…” Song Jian gazed at the tower in the city center, thinking to himself;
