Lightning bolted straight into the sky, piercing through the dark clouds and converging into a pillar of lightning that reached the heavens.
But from within the dark clouds, countless golden iron chains spread out, winding down from the lightning pillar, causing several fragments to crack from its body.
Below, lightning spread like a tide, and within the deep and astonishing sea of lightning, an unknown terror was brewing, as if a giant beast would burst forth at any moment, devouring all living beings around it, tearing the sky apart like lightning.
"This duke has such great luck; he must have other methods he hasn't used yet."
Xiao Han stared at Duke Vayne, who was several miles away. He burned a bundle of lucky clover in his hand. His fortune-telling technique had finally succeeded once, allowing him to peek into the fortune of an extraordinary person.
Only after leaving the battlefield did he have the opportunity to analyze the opponent's condition.
Its bright red demonic eyes, surging with blazing flames, attempted to ignite the thunderous tide of fortune.
But as soon as a small spark appeared, it was extinguished by a wave, having no effect whatsoever.
After all, it's already difficult enough to glean even a glimpse of someone's fortune, let alone try to burn away their luck.
Raise your hand, spread your slender fingers, aim at the target, and with a swift grab, a rainbow waterfall bursts forth.
[Theft] is no longer valid.
[Theft] is no longer valid.
[Theft] is no longer valid.
After three consecutive failures, Xiao Han drank the potion and kept a wary eye on the enemy.
"The extraordinary are beyond common sense and far beyond people's understanding. Skills below the gold level are not very effective."
"Bishop Nord became a newly promoted transcendent being because he was also a Demon King, and through special methods..."
"No, it should be pseudo-gold. Strictly speaking, it is not a true superhuman. That's why it fell into the evil god's trap and was restrained by Minise and me."
Xiao Han's thoughts raced like lightning, sparks of inspiration colliding and exploding, leading him to deduce what he believed to be the truth.
"Um, so Evelyn was... willing?"
Xiao Han looked stunned. He felt a pang of guilt as he thought of the sacred object he had once taken from the paladin, which was still kept in his room closet as a souvenir of a friend.
And Anna almost used it as a bath towel... The blue and white striped "towel" was indeed a bit strange.
Putting aside the alluring curves (driving), Xiao Han focused his attention on the important matter at hand.
"I have a feeling that he still has a backup plan, so we can't be careless."
Xiao Han narrowed his eyes, wondering whether he should turn the tables and kill the Duke.
The opponent's Golden Path is restricted, preventing them from unleashing their peak combat power. If Lonely Mountain and Giant Warrior join forces, it's not impossible for them to rival a superhuman.
He possesses the Serpent Wing Ring, which was effective against the Nord Bishop, allowing him to control death with full force, but this does not mean it will be useful against true superhumans.
This time, he relied on his overflowing luck and the power of Lonely Mountain to fight against the superhumans, putting him in a passive and defensive position, and even the Giant God Weapon was almost taken away.
A counterattack would be too risky, with little chance of success.
Besides, even if they can't win, they can escape. This is their territory, and they definitely have plenty of teleportation methods.
"Bang!"
The giant black spider crashed into an invisible wall and bounced back.
Beneath the ground, a mysterious force has imprisoned the ability to burrow into the earth, causing the giant to extend its sharp claws and stab at the invisible wall.
The solitary mountain, carrying immense kinetic energy, crashed into it, causing lightning and flames to explode and cracks to appear on the walls.
"Bang!"
The worst has happened: the Gates of Worth are sealed, and escape is impossible.
Duke Vayne, being shrewd and calculating, activated a contingency plan left by her predecessor to prevent outsiders from seizing the Colossus.
Inside, Duke Vayne can come and go as she pleases, but the enemy is unable to advance or retreat, forced to take the beating and finds themselves in a passive position.
This was originally a measure to guard against superhumans, but it just so happened to block Xiao Han and the others' retreat, which was an unexpected surprise for the Duke.
"Little Fox City Lord, will you choose to break it down by force, or wait for a magician to dismantle it?"
Minnie frowned, finding this invisible wall troublesome. She touched the communication device in her pointed ear and said.
"Let's take down that guy who's chasing us for the electricity bill first," Xiao Han replied domineeringly, and downed a bottle of iced lemon tea, feeling great.
Upon hearing this, Minise was slightly taken aback. After a moment of silence, she said, "Are you confident? Lord City Lord, please forgive my bluntness, but superhumans are not easy to kill. The best outcome is that we can repel them, but we cannot kill them."
"Don't worry, it's like entering a boss level that you can't exit. You can't get out until you defeat the boss."
Xiao Han pressed down on the hilt of his sword. The sharkskin-like texture was imbued with golden power, nourishing the divine weapon within its sheath. He sighed, "There's no better way. Outside this sealed wall, there might already be traps laid while we're breaking through, or even other superhumans appearing."
"Trust me, try it first, cut off that electricity bill collector first, it's a wise move to solve a problem."
Xiao Han looked serious and solemn, deeply feeling that this Duke was indeed an old dog, setting up step by step to make it impossible for the enemy to escape.
"Okay, little fox."
Minnie responded, a cross-shaped glint in her eyes, exceptionally bright against her dark red pupils.
At her call, everyone prepared for battle and used various means to assist the little fox who was the main participant in the battle.
But the sky darkened, signifying the arrival of a lightning-type mage.
A layer of golden light flowed like water, and a surge of lightning emerged, revealing a huge monster with flashing lightning and covered in scales. It looked like a Tyrannosaurus Rex wearing lightning armor.
Just as the fortune-telling predicted, beneath the thunderous tide lies a great terror!
