"Who are you?" Jiang Fengtao stared at Lu Shi, who had emerged from hiding, and asked through gritted teeth.
"The one who'll take your life." Lu Shi replied casually, raising her right hand and shooting three Shadow Nails toward the door.
Three Shadow Nails pierced the chest of the burly man who was drawing a star map, blood splattered, and the man fell to the ground.
[Killed a low-level human mage, soul weight 46G, automatically absorbed]
Standing next to the big man, Zhang Ye hurriedly hid in a corner, trembling with fear.
...
"Useless trash." Jiang Fengtao cursed angrily, raising one hand and unleashing a wind blade.
The wind blade, accompanied by a whistling sound, flashed past in the confined space and slashed straight at Lu Shi's face.
bite.
The illusionary gold appeared.
The wind blade was deflected and landed on the ground, disappearing without a trace.
"Master, are you satisfied with the upgraded shapeshifting gold's defensive capabilities?" Little Scissors asked, showing off.
"good."
Lu Shi responded softly in her mind.
Tick-tock.
The black high heels touched the ground, a blue light shone, and the body moved as fast as lightning, rushing straight towards Jiang Fengtao.
The black tassels on her clothes fluttered behind her like a cat's tail.
In the confined space, Lu Shi, possessed by flames, preferred close-quarters combat, as this was the only way to make the most of the physical training he had undergone over the past few days.
Dragon-shaped flames flickered on Lu Shi's right fist, and the dragon's head fiercely bit at the defensive magic weapon that had risen from Jiang Fengtao's body.
A fiery dragon hovered above the defensive artifact, then coiled and compressed it. Finally, the flames converged, instantly shattering the artifact into fragments. Amidst the cracking sounds, Lu Shi's left fist, wreathed in phoenix flames, struck once more.
Jiang Fengtao cried out in surprise, his feet flashing with blue light as he retreated.
Phoenix flames grazed his right cheek, charring half of it and blowing off his top hat, revealing his bald head shaved off by the strong wind.
Lu Shi took a breath and did not continue the pursuit. The flame possession was also dispelled from her body. Although her body had been greatly strengthened by the continuous dragon and phoenix flame possession, she was also a little overwhelmed.
Jiang Fengtao covered his right cheek, pointed at Lu Shi, and couldn't speak for a long time.
Lu Shi completely ignored Jiang Fengtao's clamor. After a brief moment of respite, she pointed with her right hand, and flames mysteriously erupted from Jiang Fengtao's body.
"ah!"
Jiang Fengtao, who had no defensive magic artifact to resist, cried out in pain as flames raged over his body, gradually turning it black.
"It's over now," Lu Shi said sharply, preparing to deliver the fatal blow.
Before she could make her move, a flash of silver light appeared on her body, and she vanished from her spot.
The little scissors actively released spatial movement.
Crackle, crackle.
A loud bang came from where Lu Shi had been standing, and the space itself was visibly distorted.
If Lu Shi hadn't moved, she probably would have been squeezed into a twisted shape.
"Wow, they actually managed to use a spatial teleportation artifact to dodge spatial compression. That's really unexpected!"
The man in black who had been sitting on the side watching the show stood up, the afterglow of the silver star map still lingering in front of him.
"Another spatial magician." Lu Shi marveled at the other party's skillful spellcasting; he seemed to be a master.
Okay, I'll focus on dealing with you later.
First, address the established goals.
Lu Shi turned to Jiang Fengtao and snapped his fingers.
【ignite】
Just when Jiang Fengtao thought he had escaped a disaster, he was putting out the remaining flames on his body. The flames on his upper body had been extinguished, and he was dealing with the flames on his lower body.
But the remaining flames around his waist suddenly exploded, blasting Jiang Fengtao in two, and his lower body was completely pulverized.
"Ah!" Jiang Fengtao's upper body twisted on the ground, leaving a trail of blood. His hands clawed wildly at the ground, and he kept letting out painful growls, like a dying beast.
Lu Shi stopped looking at him and turned to focus on dealing with the man in black.
The man in black glanced indifferently at Jiang Fengtao, who was struggling and dying on the ground, shook his head, and said mockingly to Lu Shi:
"I don't know who you are, but finding a like-minded partner isn't easy. You're blocking my way, so I'll take your life. Sounds reasonable, right?"
"Tch, come on, let me show you what's reasonable."
Lu Shi raised her fists, and the dragon and phoenix flames that had just caught their breath reappeared behind her, gradually wrapping around her fists, and the flames blazed up, extremely dazzling.
"Might makes right."
As he spoke, he slammed both fists, imbued with dragon and phoenix flames, at the man in black.
"hehe."
Without hesitation, the man in black raised one hand, and a silver light barrier appeared.
Bang bang bang.
The fiery fists, shaped like dragons and phoenixes, kept slamming against the light barrier, the loud noises echoing throughout the small room.
"It is a disgrace for a mage to use melee attacks."
The man in black let out a mocking laugh. His right hand continued to maintain the silver light barrier, while his left hand shone with black light, incessantly drawing intricate star charts.
"What kind of defensive magic is this? Is it spatial?" Lu Shi pounded on the light barrier, asking Little Scissors in her mind.
"It seems like the Space system has merged with another system, but I can't tell exactly what it is," Little Scissors replied truthfully.
Lu Shi felt that the time for the flame possession was almost up, and the star map that the other party was drawing with his other hand was also almost finished.
If even a level 10 Flame Potion can't penetrate this light barrier, then fire attacks can only go this far.
However, when it comes to violence, I still have... Lei.
This other violent elemental system seems to have been neglected for a long time.
Then, little one, set it on fire...
[You begin meditation. After burning your soul to a weight of 28G, your lightning magic reaches an advanced level. Your Lightning Strike and Thunderclap spells are upgraded. You also learn a new lightning magic skill, Heavenly Punishment Lightning.]
[You continue meditating. After burning your soul to reach 46G, your lightning spells remain at a high level, but you have become more proficient in casting them. Through long-term, unremitting practice, you have developed a basic affinity for lightning.]
Lightning type (advanced)
Magical Skills: Lightning Strike, Thunderclap, Divine Punishment Lightning
Basic affinity with lightning magic: Slightly increases the power of lightning magic and allows you to attach lightning magic to attacking magical artifacts, giving them lightning-based destructive power.
Compared to fire, lightning's affinity only appears at higher levels. It seems that in terms of innate talent, lightning is indeed inferior to fire.
However, it will arrive eventually, though it may be late.
That's good.
In the blink of an eye, the illusory dragon and phoenix flames behind Lu Shi disappeared.
Seeing this, the man in black continued to draw with his left hand while keeping his right hand still, only making mocking noises.
"Haha, has the Flame Possession effect ended?"
But his laughter stopped.
He saw a purplish-black light emanating from Lu Shi's body; compared to the previous pure purple, she was clearly more electrifying now.
"High-level lightning element? How is that possible? You were just..."
The man in black's expression changed completely.
Lu Shi waved her hands, and a complex purplish-black star map slowly unfolded in front of her.
[Divine Retribution Thunder]
A bolt of purplish-black lightning, as thick as a bucket, shot out from the star map, the destructive purple lightning striking the silver light barrier directly.
The silver light barrier shattered under such a powerful blow, and silver fragments scattered towards the man in black, covering his entire body and coating his face and body with a layer of silver.
The man in black was so badly affected by the magic that he coughed up blood.
But his left hand continued to draw.
At the same time that Lu Shi unleashed the second bolt of divine punishment.
The black star map is finally complete.
The small room suddenly turned completely dark.
Only the purplish-black light of the newly unleashed divine lightning illuminated the area, but after striking the man in black, the light vanished without a trace, leaving the room pitch black.
"Damn it, it's the Shadow Society's tricks again," Lu Shi cursed inwardly.
Immediately afterwards, the voices of the men in black came from all directions.
"Darkness knows no bounds. This is my domain."
Accompanying the sound were countless shadow spikes shooting towards Lu Shi.
"So what if it's a domain?"
Lu Shi proudly raised both hands high.
The black and white light converged in the left and right hands.
A giant Tai Chi diagram is presented.
It wrapped her whole body.
Ding ding ding.
Countless impact sounds emanated from the Tai Chi diagram, yet they caused no damage whatsoever.
"How do you know eighty unique skills? Who exactly are you?"
The man in black exclaimed in shock.
"To deal with darkness. Now, I have a better way."
Lu Shi paid no attention to the astonished question from the man in black, and thought to herself:
"Little Commander, upgrade... Light element."
