"Light permeates the entire space, penetrating everywhere. It includes the stars and moon in the sky, so the Light Rank is the strongest. The origin of the name Dawn-level Adventurer Group is also related to the Light Rank."
There is only one moon in the night sky, but countless stars. No matter how many stars there are, they cannot outshine the moonlight.
Hehehehe... I only mean one thing when I say this: the Moon Rank is not something you three Star Ranks can defeat. This ironclad rule is insurmountable for any adventurer.
A charred, hairless figure appeared like a ghost behind Linda.
In that instant, a chill ran down the spines of Linda and the other two, and goosebumps covered their entire bodies.
Tasia was facing the person, and Linda could see the speaker's appearance through the reflection in her pupils.
Fox held a broken test tube-shaped medicine bottle in his left hand, and dark black liquid remained on his lips. The liquid was extremely corrosive, leaving his lips chipped and cracked, revealing his lower molars.
A power remarkably similar to that of the witch rose from within Fox's body.
His eyes were filled with billowing black mist, and his soles were burned to the point of exposing white bone, leaving only a layer of flesh and blood. He walked on the ground as if he felt no pain.
He looks like a "living dead"!
Leah's eyes widened, and she cried out, "Stop—"
Fox held a short knife and thrust it toward Linda's heart.
At this distance, Linda had no chance of dodging; he hadn't even cast a Verdant Shield on himself.
There's only one consequence of being hit in a vital spot...!
Lia felt as if something had exploded inside her head, and her body stiffened, as if she had been drenched in mud.
Her eyes clearly saw Hu'er, but her hands couldn't keep up. She could only watch helplessly as the skeletal Hu'er, with a sinister grin, thrust a short knife into Linda's back.
It was an intense, nauseating feeling of powerlessness; Leah couldn't even make a sound, she could only open her mouth wide.
Linda, who was facing Lia, naturally noticed Lia's flustered appearance, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.
He quickly focused his attention on his own lifeline, concentrating all his energy behind him to defend against Hur's attack as much as possible.
But in the next moment...
"—That's the end of it."
A figure descended rapidly from a height of over a thousand meters.
Like a swooping eagle, he moved with such speed that the clouds turned into huge "smoke rings" as he passed through them.
At the critical moment, this adventurer with pale golden wings and dressed in a black robe landed between Linda and Fox.
Like a willow catkin, it fell from the sky without making a sound.
The person's voice was clear and pleasant, clearly belonging to a woman.
She looked to be no more than 1.4 meters tall, wearing a pure white mask on her face, with her delicate white collarbone showing at the neckline of her black robe, and long silver hair reaching her hips behind her.
Compared to Tassia's slightly grayish long hair, this little man in black robes was much brighter.
She casually stretched out her right hand, lazily as if yawning, and anyone could see how slow her movements were.
But with such a casual grab, he precisely caught Hu'er's dagger. Or rather, the dagger that Hu'er thrust out was deliberately curved, as if attracted by a powerful magnet, and actively delivered the dagger into the black-robed man's hand.
This terrifying strength made all four people present twitch.
Immediately afterwards, the woman in black gently clapped her small hand, and Fox was struck hard. With a scream of pain, Fox flew more than ten meters away, crashing into several thick trees and breaking them in succession.
Struck by this heavy blow, Fox was covered in blood, and the little flesh and blood on his body fell to the ground again.
Apart from the fox's head, the body was basically just a skeleton, lying on the ground, barely alive.
From the moment Hu Er leaped up to the moment he was knocked away, only three seconds had passed.
As a result, Linda and the others' emotions were like a rollercoaster, from the tension of facing life and death, to shock, surprise, and doubt...
They all froze on the spot, unable to react.
Even the combined efforts of the three of them couldn't defeat the incredibly powerful Fox, who was so strong it was almost despair-inducing, and he was so easily knocked away.
It's practically no different from swatting a fly.
"Light Rank".
Linda, Lia, and Tasia all had the same thought.
A casual strike can defeat Flying Fox; what else besides the Light Rank can it do?
That overwhelming fighting spirit was dozens of times stronger than Hu Er's!
If Linda felt that Fox was a worthy opponent, then this mysterious man would probably have to borrow the luck of every adventurer on the entire continent to have any hope of winning.
Linda, unsure whether the other party was friend or foe, looked over warily.
This person was short in stature, resembling a dwarf, dressed in a black robe, wearing a hood, and with a pure white mask without any patterns or decorations on his face.
Behind the mask were a pair of deep purple eyes.
As Linda was observing her, she was also sizing herself up.
You couldn't read any emotion in the other person's eyes.
Linda felt that her mask looked somewhat familiar.
It bears some resemblance to the mask of the Dark Shadow.
Surely it's not like they're cosplaying as Dark Shadow, is it?
Linda thought to herself, rather strangely.
At this moment, not far away, Fox gritted his teeth, got up, spread his battle aura wings, and prepared to escape.
Facing the Light Rank, Fox had no desire to continue the fight.
But the little black-robed woman had already caught wind of everything happening around her. She snorted coldly, and a three-meter-long blue hand materialized in the void, slapping Fox Er to the spot!
It is the unique ability of Light-Rank Adventurers: [Hand of the Void]!
The Light Rank allows one to solidify their battle aura or magic power into a controllable void hand, consuming very little energy while possessing considerable destructive power.
