Tassanya grinned.
At this moment, she was no different from a monster; even her grin revealed no hint of a smile.
Then her whole body burst into flames, and she let out a deafening dragon roar.
As her power erupted completely, the flames around her grew hotter and brighter, and everything around her seemed to be distorted and burned to ashes in the flames.
Lundel's dagger was slashed once before it was burned by the intense flames. A spark spread from his sleeve to his entire body, instantly igniting a raging fire.
Amidst his agonizing screams, he tried to hide in the shadows beneath him, but found he couldn't; the firelight had completely exposed his figure, so he could only run towards the shadows in the corner of the wall.
Now they're finally preparing to escape.
He had just been clinging to a last glimmer of hope, wanting to try his killer move, and if it didn't work, he would run away again.
Tassanya witnessed this scene. She was indeed no match for Lundel's speed. The Shadow Man profession might not be the best in terms of offense, but it was definitely shameless when it came to escaping.
Once he disappears into the shadows, he could appear hundreds of meters away in any direction.
But she's not the only one here today.
And Leila too.
"Roar roar roar————"
A thunderous roar echoed, and Lundel's fleeing figure suddenly stopped.
The image of that enormous, pure white creature that he had just seen appeared in his mind instantly took over his thoughts.
Although it only lasted less than a second, it was enough for a battle of their caliber.
Tassanya had already reached Lundelor's side, grabbed his arm, and slammed him hard to the ground.
boom!
Lundel landed face-first on the ground, his head bleeding profusely from the impact.
wow-
The fluorescent powder that had been prepared beforehand poured down from Tassanya's other claw, covering Lundel.
This marked the end of the battle.
at the same time.
At the entrance of the alley not far away, the wall of forbidden spells crumbled.
Mirail was revealed standing in the wall, with Bodeika dying at her feet.
The illusory figure in front of Miler had faded to the point of being invisible and was about to disappear. Meanwhile, Bozelica's muscular body was covered in conspicuous knife wounds and blood.
"Fortunately, I didn't hold anyone back."
Miler then saw Leila and Tassanya after their transformations and smiled as she spoke.
She reached out to Bodjelica, trying to grab her.
But at that moment, a bottle of black potion suddenly appeared in the hand of the previously dying Bojelica, and a smile appeared on her face behind her broken glasses.
It was a smile of mutual destruction.
Milair's eyes suddenly narrowed.
She immediately threw the dagger in her hand, trying to stop Bojelica from drinking the black potion.
But with just a gentle squeeze, the crystal bottle containing the potion shattered, and a thick, black mist of medicine erupted and swept out.
Bojelica's body, which was originally covered in wounds, was instantly restored to its original state, and was even twice as big as when she had used her full power.
Except for her head and neck, her muscles bulged all over her body, her blood vessels dilated and visible, and streams of black liquid surged in her veins. When she opened her eyes, they were completely black.
Looking at Milair in front of her, she simply waved her hand gently.
A black gust of wind was unleashed from his hand, heading straight for Milair.
Miler's expression changed. At this moment, she was in a weakened state after using her skill and had no chance to dodge such a fast-moving gale.
Moreover, this gust of wind was so fast that it was impossible to completely track it; its speed was even faster than Milair's peak.
At this point, Bojelica was clearly no longer in the lower fourth rank.
Just as Milair was watching helplessly as she was about to be hit by this terrifying blow, her pupils trembling, a figure flashed and blocked her way.
"If you get hit by this attack, you should lose your ability to fight immediately."
The familiar figure slowly spoke:
"If it's just Leila and Tassanya fighting two against one, the odds are about 50/50. Tassanya still has the ability to summon a dragon phantom, but Leila has an advantage in terms of bloodline. Otherwise, a fourth-tier upper-level fighter against two lower-tier lower-level fighters would probably have a 90/10 chance."
"But we can't blame you for that. After all, no one would have expected that this vice commander would have a bottle of fifth-tier alchemical potion."
"So, even with its flaws, I'm still willing to give you full marks for your performance this time, Milair."
After speaking, Luo Xiu smiled and looked at Miler, who was being protected behind him.
Just as he was speaking, Bozelica opposite him had already waved her hands, unleashing gusts of wind, but he easily blocked them all, and even had the energy to joke with Miler.
Miler was speechless. Her eyes were filled with Luo Xiu, who had suddenly appeared in front of her. His tall figure stood in the boundless night, as safe as the city wall, and she was the only resident of this city.
She has always been a very insecure person, which is why she wants to climb up the social ladder and strive to become someone she can rely on.
In the middle of the night, she often had nightmares, dreaming that she had gone from being the deputy commander to having nothing, returning to that slum, living a life of hunger and being despised.
And on this special night, after what just happened.
She thought that perhaps she wouldn't be afraid of nightmares anymore.
She even began to look forward to the next nightmare.
Will there ever be a figure that suddenly appears, enters her dream, and, just as she wished as a child, reaches out a hand to her, huddled and trembling in the slums?
"Hey, do you want to come with me?"
Chapter 142 Count Bar and Count Larry
Night had fallen over the alley. At this moment, some people in the surrounding buildings had been awakened by the sounds of fighting and were crouching in their dark rooms, looking out the window.
A colossal white creature, a crimson-scaled monster, and many human figures.
No one in the building dared to make a sound, for fear of attracting the attention of those "monsters" outside the window.
Alley entrance.
Milair was still immersed in Luo Xiu's sudden appearance, lost in her fantasies.
Only after Luo Xiu's figure disappeared and flashed to the side of Bozelica, who had undergone a transformation after drinking the fifth-order alchemical potion, did Miler awaken from her daze and look at the battle between her master and the monster.
Although she was very confident in Luo Xiu's strength, Milier couldn't help but worry, after all, her opponent had already drunk a fifth-tier potion, making him far stronger than usual.
But soon she realized she had been overthinking it. The clash between Luo Xiu and the mutated Bozelica could hardly be considered a battle.
It was a complete one-sided beating.
In her vision, Luo Xiu's punches and kicks were so fast that they were impossible to catch with her eyes. She could only feel the afterimages of his fists and feet violently slamming into Bojelica's body. Each blow caused her body to tremble violently, and black blood gushed out incessantly.
On the other hand, when Bojelica's massive arms slammed into Luo Xiu, it was like a three-year-old child throwing a punch at an adult, not even making Luo Xiu pause for a moment.
In just a few seconds, Bojelica was already beaten so badly by Luo Xiu that she was unable to fight back and lay on the ground, barely alive.
Luo Xiu casually punched her on the head, knocking her unconscious, then grabbed her thick neck and dragged her back to Miler's side.
"Master is too strong..."
Milair spoke with excitement.
Beside them, Leila and Tassanya reverted to their original forms and dragged their respective opponents over.
"Owner."
Tassanya and Leila spoke in unison, both very happy to see Luo Xiu.
Tassanya knelt on one knee, while Leila ran up to Luo Xiu. She wanted to hug Luo Xiu's waist, but hesitated and raised her head, her face flushed.
Luo Xiu smiled and picked Leila up with one arm:
"Everyone did a great job tonight, let's go home."
"Yes!"
The three of them responded in unison.
The group carried the three unconscious "spoils" toward Mammon Street.
After navigating through a maze of streets, Luo Xiu looked around at the silent, dark houses and said:
"The battle just now was quite loud. They must have used some methods to minimize the scale of the battle and prevent anyone from noticing it."
“A few months ago, Pozelica asked the Knights of the Order of Curi for a batch of sleeping potions, saying it was to treat her insomnia. Her tolerance to the drugs has always been relatively high, so even though the amount she asked for was a bit too much, no one noticed anything unusual.”
Milair began:
"I guess she used this batch of sleeping pills before tonight's operation. Their original plan was for the three of them to take me down as quickly as possible, but something unexpected happened."
Luo Xiu nodded:
“Sleeping potions alone probably won’t be enough. Milair, the power within you carries divinity, and the roar it creates when it appears will suppress many other forces, which will definitely weaken the effects of the sleeping potions. Some people should have already woken up by now.”
After thinking for a moment, Milair said:
"There shouldn't be any major problems. After we investigate everything tonight, the Knights will naturally come up with a reasonable explanation to appease the residents tomorrow."
“I’m not worried about the residents, but I’m afraid other people have noticed it too.”
Luo Xiu spoke softly, stopped in his tracks, and looked towards a shadowy spot to his right. There was a dilapidated wooden plank there, which seemed to have been used by nearby residents to partition off an area for storing household garbage.
In the dead corner formed by piles of garbage, Luo Xiu sensed a certain power fluctuation.
Such energy fluctuations were not limited to one place; they were scattered throughout the surrounding area.
Although tonight's battle may not have alarmed the entire city of Kanriel, some observant individuals certainly took notice.
None of these people showed up directly, presumably because they all had their own concerns and plans.
Perhaps there is some kind of balance among those hiding in the shadows, which is why they haven't come out to influence the course of the battle.
But since they didn't show themselves, Luo Xiu wasn't too concerned about the reasons behind it.
