Sword God in a World of Magic

Things were becoming dangerous right now. Shang was pretty sure that the Plague Rat wouldn't care about the Thunder Horse's mark.

Shang immediately ran for the coastline to the Tide Serpent Zone, hoping that he would reach it before the Plague Rat got to him.

The black shadow of the Plague Rat tore through the Abominations at insane speeds. It was probably killing over ten Abominations per second, which was absolutely ridiculous!

BANG!

Shang released an Ice Blast, jumping over the lake in front of him.

At that moment, Shang felt like danger was approaching.

BANG!

Shang released a Fire Blast above him, shooting him into the lake below him.

A moment later, a black shadow passed over him. This had only been a casual attack from the Plague Rat, which hadn't even been targeted at Shang.

However, that would have been more than enough to kill him.

As soon as Shang's body entered the water, a bit of lightning shot over his body.

Shang knew what that meant.

Something very powerful had just inspected him.

Shang's Darkness Vision extended towards the coastline, and he saw the black shadow of the Plague Rat throw a short glance at Shang.

But without hesitation, the Plague Rat turned away again and focused on the other Abominations inside its Zone, leaving Shang in the lake.

When Shang saw that, he released a sigh of relief. 'Guess I'm no longer your problem, huh?'

'But honestly, this was way too close!'

Shang heard more explosions coming from the Plague Rat Zone, and he really hoped that no one connected the appearance of the Abominations to him.

'This time, it can be attributed to coincidence. Nobody will probably connect it to me. However…'

Shang narrowed his right eye. 'If I keep just randomly showing up at places where Abominations appear, it won't take some genius to figure out that I am connected to their appearance.'

'Sure, getting an Abomination to strengthen my body is a great boost to my power, but every time I summon them is playing with my life.'
