The Human Giant - Chapter 391: Dangers Appearance!

Martial Grandmasters are the highest realm of power that is achievable by humans. A height of power that was unachievable by thousands of hopeful martial artists, yet only one will achieve it. Martial Grandmasters were extremely rare at the height of power that mortals could reach. They could be considered to be the trump card by large organizations.

After being a martial artist for so long and having seen numerous immortals and demons, Yoze had only ever seen one Martial Grandmaster. Yet, today, he finally found another Martial Grandmaster who was once again his enemy.

“Am I a magnet for attracting powerful enemies?” Yoze muttered, yet his allies, who were in shock, didn’t notice.

“Are you certain? If we are facing a Martial Grandmaster, then it truly is over. We should just grab Evi and Mr. Light and leave.”

“Hopefully, this Martial Grandmaster is in a good move and lets us go.” Suzanne hastily asked as she grabbed hold of Yoze’s arm so tightly her knuckles turned white.

“I’m certain it is.” Yoze nodes with certainty.

Suzanne’s heart dropped deep into the abyss as the faint hope that appeared in her heart went out. Just as she was about to speak, she heard Yoze continue.

“It’s either that or we are fighting a demon or, maybe, even an immortal. That would be much more exciting, but none of you will probably survive with an intact body.” Yoze’s hand reached up to stroke his chin but stopped halfway when he remembered he was still in his blood armor.

“Why do I feel you would have preferred to fight a demon or immortal?” Suzanne’s eye twitched when she heard the slight excitement in Yoze’s tone.

“Because I would! Each demon and immortal has a body full of treasure!” Yoze thought to himself but was quite silent since he didn’t think Suzanne and Gilan would appreciate his true feelings.

As Gilan watched Suzanne freaking out at the mention of a Martial Grandmaster, she felt the terror in her heart explode. Even though she was only an ordinary person, she knew how powerful Martial Grandmasters were and even knew a few due to their fame.

But it was only when she felt the utter terror coming from within Suzanne’s soul that she realized that the people she already thought were powerful beyond comprehension were nothing in front of Martial Grandmaster. Yet, judging from how calm Yoze appeared and strangely even a bit excited, she didn’t know whether to feel afraid or follow Yoze’s lead and stay calm.

“Anyways, trying to run away from a Martial Grandmaster is useless. Especially a Martial Grandmaster who might specialize in speed.” Yoze said after waiting some time for Suzanne to calm down.

He placed his big hand on her shoulder and could sense her rapidly beating heart, which showed signs of irregular movement.

“Your heart is still damaged from your earlier attempt to blow yourself up, and while the effects of the blood pill I gave you can still last for 40 minutes, if you continue fighting, you might drop dead,” Yoze said after examining Suzanne’s heart.

“…” Suzanne remained silent as she knew what Yoze said was true.

The damage she had caused to her heart from her haste injection and removal of all her blood resulted in her heart suffering from numerous tears. If not for her powerful physique, she would have died already. Even then, if she continued to perform such heart-intensive activities for 20 more minutes, her heart might collapse, resulting in her death.

Due to the hope that she could kill Jilque with the help of Yoze, she decided to ignore her situation and continue fighting with everything she had. Yet that hope that kept up her fighting spirit vanished when she had to face a Martial Grandmaster, an opponent that no amount of Blood Masters could hope to beat.

“Take Gilan with you to Town and find Mr. Light and Evi. Take them to another town while I deal with the Martial Grandmaster.” Yoze continued in a serious tone.

“You can’t be serious. Yoze, you just said that we are fighting against a Martial Grandmaster whom we have no hope of winning against, so why would you choose suicide.”

“As the person who has saved my life and has the most potential I have ever seen, you must live. After a decade or two, you will become a Martial Grandmaster and be able to fulfill my dream in my stead.” Suzanne deeply frowned when she heard Yoze wanted to stay behind.

She grabbed onto Yoze’s armor with all her strength, causing it to make creaking sounds as if it was truly made out of metal. Making it clear that she wasn’t going to just abandon Yoze and allow him to kill himself just for her to survive.

Just as Yoze was about to explain to Suzanne that he wouldn’t die and instead viewed this new Martial Grandmaster as an even better training dummy for his martial arts skill, he heard the sound of bells. This time, they were accompanied by a sense of death, causing both his original heart and blood heart to tighten.

Gritting his teeth again, Yoze pulled both Suzanne and Gilan into her embrace, and being more prepared for it, he managed to pour in all his inner vigor into his blood armor to increase his defenses in time.

Just as the sound of bells reached them and got so loud that they could turn people deaf, Yoze saw the rapidly approaching cluster of blue spiritual energy. Yet before he could track it, it split into three similar-sized clusters with a burst of speed.

All three clusters of blue spiritual energy disappeared as the feeling of danger in Yoze’s heart exploded. More than twenty nearly irresistible attacks hit Yoze from all angles, causing even his strengthened blood armor to dent with each attack.

What caused Yoze’s pupils to shrink was that he smelt a thick sense of oil as he felt spiritual energy invading his body.

Without a second to think further, the sound of all the attacks finally caught up to them and helped strengthen the attacker’s final hit, sending him flying at more than 300 miles per hour.
