Fantasy Simulator - Chapter 189

“Damnit!” After realizing what had happened, the black-robed Apprentice felt furious and a chill appeared in his heart.

He had never thought that even though he was also a Third Rank Apprentice, he would have his mind confused by someone else for so long.

If that immense sense of danger had not appeared, it would have taken him much longer to wake up.

This was not something that an ordinary Third Rank Apprentice could do.

Using one’s mental energy to twist someone else’s senses was something that only an Apprentice with incredibly powerful mental energy could do.

If it was done to an ordinary person, it would not be a big deal, but it was incredibly difficult to do this to a Third Rank Apprentice like him.

Even a true Sorcerer would find it difficult to twist a Third Rank Apprentice’s senses.

Before this, he would never believe that a Third Rank Apprentice could do something like this to him.

However, now that it had happened, he could not refute it.

An intense sense of danger welled up within his mind.

The black-robed Apprentice instinctively wanted to struggle and change directions back to the island.

However, it was too late.

The Merfolk finally stopped holding back and opened their savage mouths as they rushed at the black-robed Apprentice.

Chaotic magic power aura shook as the Merfolk Priest was revealed. He was hiding behind the ordinary Merfolk and was waiting for his opportunity to act.

The black-robed Apprentice was forced to stop as magic power aura exploded out from his body.

No matter if he wanted to or not, he had to retaliate or else he would definitely die.

If he struggled, he would at least have a bit of hope.

A bloody battle soon unfolded.

Even though he had used up more than half of his strength, he was still a Third Rank Apprentice.

Once he unleashed his power, no one dared to underestimate him.

This scene was what Chen Heng wanted to see.

After getting quite far away from the black-robed Apprentice and sensing the noise behind him, Chen Heng shook his head.

The black-robed Apprentice had chosen the wrong person to act against.

Right when the black-robed Apprentice had invited him to go together, he had expected that something like this would happen, and he was prepared for it.

As such, Chen Heng took advantage of this.

“I need to hurry up and leave…” Chen Heng muttered to himself sensing the magic power auras from behind him.

After all, he was still in the water, and this was the domain of the Merfolk.

Perhaps the black-robed Apprentice would survive for some time, but he definitely would not be able to make it out alive.

After a while, he would no longer be able to struggle and be taken down by the Merfolk.

When that time came, the Merfolk would come after Chen Heng.

He would only be able to survive if he took this opportunity to escape while they were not focused on him.

Fortunately, because the black-robed Apprentice was making too much of a ruckus, none of them were coming after Chen Heng right now.

Chen Heng continued to move his arms and shoot forwards.

Soon, the island was right in front of him.

“Nearly there… nearly there…” Chen Heng thought to himself as he resisted the sense of exhaustion and madly rushed forwards.

After escaping for so long, even if he was a Third Rank Apprentice, he could not help but feel exhausted.

However, he could endure it for now.

The island was becoming clearer and clearer.

For some reason, as Chen Heng approached the island, a strange feeling emerged within him.

Inside his body, the violet Fortune Mark began to glow as if it sensed something.

A different feeling appeared in Chen Heng’s body, making him feel somewhat uncomfortable.

“This feeling…”

Sensing this, Chen Heng instinctively frowned. He wanted to find the cause of that feeling but was unable to.

If it was under normal circumstances, he would be able to take his time and work it out. However, right now he was just running for his life; he did not have any time or energy to focus on such a thing.

Following this, Chen Heng continued to rush onwards.

Time gradually passed.

Soon, it looked like Chen Heng would be able to reach the shore.

Behind him, the black-robed Apprentice was still fighting it out with the Merfolk.

He was quite powerful and now that he was going all-out, he tied down all of the Merfolk, so they did not have the opportunity to pursue Chen Heng.

In contrast, Chen Heng’s situation seemed quite relaxed.

It was just that as Chen Heng drew closer to the island, that strange feeling became stronger and stronger.

That feeling covered his entire body, making him feel incredibly tense.

Through the Fortune Mark, Chen Heng could sense that something unique was about to happen.

As Chen Heng thought to himself, he did not stop and instead sped up.

Time gradually passed.

At this moment, his surroundings started to go through changes.

A formless gale condensed and swept towards where Chen Heng was.

With a boom, incredibly dense light covered this area.

There seemed to be some kind of shadow rushing at him from behind, covering his entire body.

Sensing this, Chen Heng instinctively turned and looked over.

There, a massive storm was rushing at him.

Wild gales blew and torrential rain poured down as the storm sped over.

Chen Heng was right in front of the storm and was soon going to be hit by it.

“Damnit!” Chen Heng did not have much time to think before he lost consciousness.

The storm engulfed everything and rampaged forwards.

Only after a while did this storm subside.

After the storm disappeared, the heads of the Merfolk bobbed up and down as they swam about as if they were looking for something.

Evidently, they were looking for Chen Heng’s body.

For the Merfolk, a Third Rank Apprentice’s corpse was a great treasure. It could provide them with precious power and cause their bloodlines to transform and become stronger.

As such, they naturally wanted to find Chen Heng’s corpse and bring it back.

It was just strange that no matter how they searched, they could not find Chen Heng’s corpse.

………

It was as if his corpse had disappeared.

It was incredibly strange.

Despite searching for very long, after a few days, the Merfolk finally left reluctantly.

The ship that Chen Heng had been on before was now just a shipwreck lying peacefully at the bottom of the ocean.

…

The moment that the storm hit him, Chen Heng realized that this was what the Fortune Mark had been warning him about.

Facing that power, he was unable to resist at all and instantly lost consciousness.

At this moment, he began to slowly wake up as if he had slept for a long time.

He seemed to be able to hear faint sobs in the distance. At the same time, there also seemed to be cursing and all kinds of other voices.

They were all speaking in a language that Chen Heng was not familiar with, making it so that he could not understand.

Even though he could not understand, the emotions contained within those voices were incredibly clear.

Chen Heng could sense that the sobbing voices contained despair as well as other negative emotions.

He was incredibly familiar with this.

At Griffin’s castle, he had come into contact with vast amounts of similar emotions.

As he felt this familiar feeling, Chen Heng gradually came back to his senses.

Following this, Chen Heng opened his eyes and looked around.

Not too far away, faint mental ripples spread over. They were filled with despair, terror, and unease, but among the various negative emotions, there was a trace of hope.

Hope?

“There’s someone in danger?”

Sensing the mental ripples, Chen Heng thought to himself, “And there’s someone asking for help?”

Ordinarily, Chen Heng would only choose to act after making sure there were no problems.

However, right now, he was still somewhat in a daze.

As such, he did not think too much and walked over.

Ahead was a dense forest filled with thick trees. The sound of insects could be heard, which were incredibly loud.

Soon, Chen Heng saw the source of the sounds.

A few tall monsters were standing there.

They looked somewhat humanoid, and all of them were around two metres tall. They had scales on their bodies and looked somewhat like the Merfolk that Chen Heng had seen.

In front of these monsters were many corpses.

The monsters were holding the corpses and eating them.

They mostly started from the arms, and there was a female-looking monster that grabbed an old man’s leg and began to chew at it.

Soon, she had finished eating that leg.

She threw out the remaining bones before grabbing another leg and continued to eat.

There was a young girl sitting in front of the corpse.

She wore coarse clothes and her body was dyed red with blood. She was somewhat dazed as she stared at the bloody scene in front of her.

Seeing that she was not resisting or escaping, the monsters did not immediately kill her.

Perhaps for these monsters, living things tasted better than dead things.

Even though Chen Heng had arrived here, he was not noticed by the monsters.

The gory scene stimulated his mind, causing him to come back to his senses.

His gaze gradually became sharp, and his right hand slowly descended to his waist, getting in position to draw his sword.

Ahead a monster roared.

He tossed his half-eaten corpse aside and looked at the little girl.

Being looked at by that bloodthirsty gaze, the girl trembled.

Terror and unease… all kinds of emotions flashed in her mind.

“Is it my turn now?” the girl thought to herself as the monster walked over.

Looking at the tall figure slowly drawing closer, the girl did not do anything and only instinctively trembled as she slowly closed her eyes.

Not too far away, some footsteps sounded out, attracting the monster’s attention.

This was the same for the girl.

Not too far away, she saw a young man slowly walking over.

The young man’s clothing looked quite expensive but it was all tattered now.

It could be seen that he had gone through something, and there were wounds all over his body.

Seeing him draw closer, the girl felt quite surprised.

The monsters all excitedly got up and rushed at Chen Heng without much thought.

A silver sword appeared in Chen Heng’s hand, and a boundless sword light shined out.

Chen Heng’s sword continuously slashed out, but the monsters seemed to have fallen in a daze and did not react at all.

Their bodies continued to charge forwards from the momentum and were cut down by Chen Heng.

Blood continuously flew out and splattered out.

Mental Intimidation!

The moment Chen Heng had drawn his sword, he had used Mental Intimidation.

Experience had shown that against creatures with powerful bodies but weak minds, Mental Intimidation was incredibly effective.

He was able to subdue them in just moments and killed them one by one.

Everything happened quite quickly, and in less than half a minute, the battle was over.

The girl stared at these scenes and watched as Chen Heng easily cut down those monsters.

“So… powerful…”

“Are you alright…”

After dealing with the monsters, Chen Heng slowly walked over to the girl and lightly spoke, wanting to ask about the situation here.

By now, he had completely woken up and realized something.

The place he was at definitely was not that island from before.

He had seen that island—it was a very small island, and it was not likely that there were humans living on it or any man-eating monsters.

For some reason, after that storm, he had come to this unfamiliar place.

For Chen Heng, the most important thing was to understand this place.

Only by understanding the situation around here would he be able to determine where he was.

In front of him, the girl stared at Chen Heng dumbly, not seeming to have any intention of replying to him. In fact, she looked somewhat confused.

Looking at her, Chen Heng inwardly frowned and soon realized something.

“She doesn’t understand me?”

Even though he had not heard the people here speak, he had vaguely seemed to have heard some voices, and it seemed to have been an unfamiliar language.

This was why the girl naturally could not understand what he was saying.

“Forget it.”

Chen Heng inwardly shook his head and stretched out his hand.

Seeing Chen Heng stretch out his hand, the girl was a bit hesitant, but after looking at Chen Heng, she nervously stretched out her hand and placed it within Chen Heng’s hand.

Following this, Chen Heng pulled her up and picked her up.

“There aren’t any other survivors…”

After picking the girl up and looking around, Chen Heng inwardly frowned before turning and leaving.

Since they spoke different languages, Chen Heng was unable to ask her anything.

Then again, looking at the girl, it did not seem like she would know much anyways.

If Chen Heng did not take her away from here, she would most likely die here.

As such, Chen Heng decided that he might as well bring her with him.

Chen Heng was not familiar with this area and lacked directions.

Soon, he found a creek.

Following the creek, he was able to find some traces of humans.

Of course, during this process, he discovered some strange things.

Within this forest, there were many strange monsters.

There were ones like before, which had humanoid shapes and savage faces; there were also monsters that looked like mutated animals.

What they all had in common was that they had very great attack power.

Even a mutated rat would attack Chen Heng and ignore the difference in size between them.

This was not something that ordinary beasts would do.

“Just what is with this place?”

As Chen Heng advanced, looking at the beasts he encountered, Chen Heng could not help but frown.
