In the hall, the adventurers from Nanyan City glared angrily at Linda, their eyes dry but refusing to blink or moisten them.
It seemed that as soon as they looked away, they were at a disadvantage.
"A bunch of useless trash! At a time like this, you still have to rely on me!"
"Pique's lackey," the buck-toothed man cursed inwardly.
Taking advantage of Linda's inattention, he slipped upstairs to ask for help.
The members of the Chaoyang Group were all there.
Before long, a middle-aged swordsman with a sword at his waist and short brown hair walked down with a gloomy face.
"Young Master?"
The swordsman helped Piqué up, and seeing the tears and snot on his face, a flash of contempt crossed his eyes.
But even this kind of trash is the leader's only son.
We must injure Pique; we absolutely cannot let him leave so easily.
"Devi, quick, help me teach that kid a lesson! He not only humiliated and beat me, but he also stole my Ike!"
Pique hid behind Dewayne and shouted in a show of bravado but inwardly weak voice.
"Young Master, please rest assured that those who offend the Zijingshi family will pay the price."
With Devi's words, everyone in the hall showed a relieved expression.
At least they don't have to go after Linda anymore.
"Devi, let that kid see the difference between Moon-rank adventurers!" a burly man laughed heartily.
The gap between levels cannot be bridged by a few skills.
However, there is one thing that is unknown to everyone.
Only one night had passed since Linda killed Auguto.
The distance between Namam City and White Dove City is quite far, and it took Linda a whole day to fly there.
In other words, most of the adventurers present did not know that Linda had defeated Auguto. Their impression of Linda was limited to "the genius adventurer who defeated [Riki-Oh] Slo".
"【Earth Rhythm】Devi, a Moon-rank swordsman who has been famous for more than ten years, seems to be level 43! His innate skill "Earth Rhythm" allows him to sense the opponent's movements in the first instant and counter them."
"You despicable ultimate pervert, I'm going to record your embarrassing moment and submit it to the Nanyan City Gazette!"
"What gives you the right to be so arrogant, you mere newly promoted Moon Rank?"
The crowd waved flags and cheered for Devi.
The two people at the center of the incident, Linda and Aiko, didn't seem worried at all.
When Ai Ke saw Linda shake off her hand and stubbornly prepare to stay, she was slightly taken aback.
The competitive nature among males is difficult for female adventurers to understand. However, in public, Eko is willing to submit to Linda's will.
She tiptoed and whispered in Linda's ear, "That person's name is Devi, Moon Rank 43, and his innate skill is..."
Ai Ke told Linda all the information about Devi at once.
"Hmm, nothing to worry about."
Linda nodded and said, "If it's Commander Lores, then it'll be a bit tricky."
"Hehe, the air is dry in summer, and adventurers are prone to getting angry, especially young people."
With his right hand resting on the hilt of his sword, Devi sneered, "Let me, Devi of Earth Ripple, cool you down."
"Go and teach that brat a lesson!" Pike said with disgust, wiping the blood from his face.
"It's on."
Devi gave a low shout.
Swoosh—
In an instant, the earth-yellow battle aura erupted.
Devi moved with incredible speed, leaving behind a trail of afterimages, and his terrifying aura rose like a small mountain from the ground.
The large chandelier on the ceiling was blown about by the strong wind, swaying in all directions!
But Linda remained calm, and a flash of light appeared in his hand, revealing a purple longsword engraved with a demonic serpent.
He used the longsword, still sheathed, as a club, and struck Devi with it.
"What is that?"
The overwhelming magical power that rushed towards him caused Devi's expression to change drastically!
If his fighting spirit were a small mountain, then Linda's attack would be no different from a mountain-splitting axe.
Devi had a premonition that his lifeline was already a flickering candle in the wind.
Linda's speed was as fast as lightning. Devi felt a sharp pain in his chest, followed by a cracking sound of bone breaking. A broken bone fragment seemed to have pierced his internal organs.
With all his energy focused on attacking, Devi had no time to reinforce his defenses. When attacked by Linda's sword sheath, he was like a sandbag being tossed about by a rhinoceros. He immediately coughed up blood, flew backward, and crashed into the wall with a loud bang.
In the hotel lobby, the large silver chandelier creaked and swayed, its creaking not yet subsided.
The instigator, however, remained silent and was the first to stop.
Everyone stared in astonishment at what was happening before them.
Devi's body was half-buried in the wall, with only his legs showing. Next to him was Pique, who was pale-faced.
"What happened? What's going on?"
A middle-aged man with slicked-back hair held up a recording stone and muttered something.
He wasn't the only one who felt confused.
All the adventurers in the hall were completely bewildered.
Devi, a level 43 [Earth Wave], was sent flying by a single sword strike from a captain who had just been promoted to the Moon rank.
Is this normal?
No one could have predicted that the battle would end in just one second.
The person most shocked at that moment was Devi himself.
Devi, clutching his chest, crawled out of the wall, coughing up blood as he looked warily at the purple longsword in Linda's hand.
Legendary weapon.
Only legendary weapons can bridge the level gap between the two!
"Devi, are you sure you can do it?" Pick asked, trembling.
"Young Master, please shut up."
"I said angrily."
If he had known Linda had a legendary weapon, he would never have gotten involved in this mess!
This weapon can grow stronger along with its owner. In time, Linda's Phoenix Tail Flower Adventure Team may become a force on par with the Bauhinia Stone family.
