Chapter 19 Lan!
Chapter 19 Lan!
"The hunter's core ability is [Raider]. With each advancement, they will be blessed with [Land of War], which allows them to complete [Hunting Ground Contract] by using the prey's blood as a medium, killing the prey and plundering a certain ability from it as [Land of War]."
He was a Tier 3 hunter, looking at the red bone chain glowing on Frass's body, which was inlaid with three bone teeth representing his rank.
"Once the 【Hunting Ground Contract】 is established, only one of the hunter and the prey can survive!" Frass calmly explained the "game" that was about to take place.
Grace looked at Fu Xiao: "Be careful, Fu Xiao! He can wield three magical artifacts simultaneously, so he probably... also possesses Magno's magic! Don't engage him in close combat easily; try to delay him as much as possible!"
Raiders?
Fu Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly... Not being able to engage in close combat makes it very difficult for him.
Now... the only hope rests on [Golden Left Hand]!
"Hold on, give me some time...please...please don't die! Fu Xiao!" Grace's face showed worry.
The hunter and prey are already in position at the hunting grounds, and Frass's first target will definitely be Fuxiao.
If I had known this would happen, I would have preferred to come alone. This mage assassin should have been targeting me.
The Domino family has decided to turn against themselves after all!
That's why he didn't ambush and kill him from the start, but instead created a goblin attack to seal his magic...
All of these prerequisites are designed to create a perfect hunting ground for oneself to accumulate the [Raiders'] [Loot].
What he wants... is probably more than just my life.
"Force Field Control!"
Grace looked at the three little ones beside her and Trish with a hint of shame...
It was her fault! She shouldn't have stayed in Bullhorn Town any longer.
This disaster in Bull Horn Town was entirely of its own making. It was an undeserved calamity for both the residents of Bull Horn Town and Fu Xiao and his group!
"Don't worry! It's not time to completely despair yet!"
Fu Xiao slowly stood up and walked in front of Grace, who was somewhat lost in thought. He tilted his head slightly and stared directly into Frass's eyes.
Ok?
Frass felt inexplicably annoyed; Fu Xiao's eyes did not show the fear he had expected.
"You guys..."
His facial muscles twitched slightly, and his expression was already somewhat distorted.
This hunt is so unpleasant! He felt absolutely no fear from Grace and Fu Xiao.
In particular... from the very beginning, no matter what Fu Xiao was doing, he kept punching with his left hand.
Although it was just a small, subtle movement, but...
That unpleasant feeling prevented Frass from experiencing the thrill of the hunt.
"Whoosh!"
The sickle gleamed silver in the moonlight...
Fu Xiao dodged the attack by leaping onto a tree branch. He glanced at Rias behind him, and the two exchanged a knowing nod.
Rias has almost recovered. In a head-on confrontation, a swordsman has a significant advantage over a mage.
He needed to buy Grace some time, and he also needed to...
[Golden Left Hand] A little time!
"In the law of the jungle, the best hunters often appear as the prey, and it's not always certain who the hunter will be."
After saying that, Fu Xiao headed straight into the depths of the jungle...
"Fu Xiao!"
With that, Grace tossed a jar of green potion into the air, and Fu Xiao caught it and disappeared into the night of the jungle.
Faced with the provocation, Frass was not angry but rather pleased, nodding repeatedly: "If the prey doesn't struggle, the hunter will also find it boring!"
Frass's eyes glowed red, leaving a red trail behind Fu Xiao in his field of vision. He didn't even glance at the people in front of him, and chased after his prey.
Grace's mind raced as she turned to Bruce, whose sensitivity to the elements might be of some help!
"Bruce! Can you sense the elemental blockage? Can you help me find the source of the anti-magic stone? The location where the elemental blockage is located is likely where the anti-magic stone is; it shouldn't be too far away!"
She only needs a tiny gap... a gap through which her magic can escape, to break free of the magic-suppressing spell.
"Okay, I...I'll give it a try!" Suppressing the dizziness from the depletion of magic, Bruce calmed down a little.
The eyes emitted a faint blue light once again…
"Lord Frass will be back soon! Until then, you must..." Emma tilted her head slightly, just about to raise her hand to cast a spell.
"We still have unresolved scores to settle!" Rias's longsword had already fallen in front of Emma.
Alice grabbed the blade of the longsword with one hand, blocking the blow for Emma, and opened her blood-red maw to pounce on Rias, tearing at her neck.
"Waltz!"
Rias spun around and rolled over Alice's back as she lunged at her. As she switched her longsword to her other hand, she activated the sword technique "Walking Dance," using the momentum of the rotation to sever Alice's fingers with her sharp sword.
The white knight's sword drew a silver arc in the air before slashing towards Emma.
Emma's pale face beneath her veil showed a hint of astonishment: "She can move so quickly? Even with the healing potion, the negative effects of the toxins shouldn't heal this fast!"
That brat… he slowed his breathing using a breathing technique while imprisoned in the water prison, so he didn't absorb much toxin while in the water… but even if he inhaled just a little bit of the dosage he used…
No, she was... enduring the numbness and pain caused by the poison?
Rias's clenched back teeth and the fine beads of sweat sliding down her forehead sent a shiver down Emma's spine.
What incredible patience!
"Ding!"
Just as the blade was about to touch Emma's face, Alice moved with the agility of a serpent, twisting her body in a way impossible for a human to achieve, and bit Rias's longsword.
Emma's expression hardened, and a blue magic ring appeared in her hand as she channeled her magic: "Wind...mill!"
"Waltz!"
The instant the windmill started, Rias unleashed her sword technique once more, kicking Alice to use the momentum to quickly pull away and dodge the windmill.
"I... I see it! A magical vacuum! Inside... that guy's stomach!" Bruce pointed to Alice, whose body had been twisted and contorted by the blows.
Sure enough, a mage, one who needs to use Magno's magic, would only carry the anti-magic stone on a cyborg.
Grace and Rias exchanged glances, and Rias nodded knowingly, gripping her sword tighter.
"call!"
As Rias adjusted her breathing, the veins on her hands, which were gripping the longsword, bulged slightly.
She didn't inherit her father's large frame from a young age, nor did she possess the same strength as him as a knight, but...
Her strengths lie in her dexterity, excellent reflexes, and masterful swordsmanship.
Ever since Fu Xiao awakened the magic ring... it's only been a day since we last met, and he's already dealing with dispatched mages and possessed powers she can't understand. The boy she grew up with has become somewhat unfamiliar.
However… she was certain that she would never, and would never allow herself to be left behind here.
Rias sheathed her longsword at her waist. Given her current physical condition, she could only use this sword technique once.
The target must be placed inside that cyborg's belly.
"Huh? Don't even think about it!"
Emma didn't know what Rias, who had sheathed her sword, wanted to do, but she felt a strange threat. She decisively raised her hand, and magic once again gathered around her.
"Spear of the Wind!"
The wind element trembled around Emma, and two spears formed from wind element instantly flew towards Rias, almost touching her at the last second...
She drew the white longsword from her waist...
"Storm!"
Rias's figure dissipated into a cloud of mist the instant she touched the Wind Spear!
