Chapter 507 The Guardian Leoric Shock Appears and Overwhelms All
tread!
A figure emerged from the "inner city," like a beast awakening, and stepped onto the pale marble streets of the "outer city."
The air in the entire area became heavy!
Leoric Shock (100Lv)
Short blonde hair.
Its appearance is similar to that of a human, with its body bulging and thick, with muscles as strong as steel, exuding a heavy aura that creates a chilling and oppressive atmosphere.
This is a guy who, just by standing there, makes you want to bury your head in the ground and not want to be noticed.
Only those with keen senses can perceive the thick, sticky malice emanating from the other person, as if it were a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.
“Guardian! This is nothing.”
"There's no need for you to take action. There are only three intruders, and one of them is already dead..."
A female guardian of the "inner city," dressed in a secretary-like outfit, spoke urgently.
This is not flattery, it's the truth!
It is a sign of disappointment that the Guardians have had to personally intervene.
"This 'failure' has already been defeated."
Leoric Zhen spoke calmly, as if discussing something perfectly ordinary, a certain fiery smile on his face:
"These invaders are getting more and more interesting."
"Wh...what, how...how..."
As an automaton race, they don't have complex facial expressions, but you can still hear the emotion of shock in their tone.
A "failed project" is not a big deal!
The key point is that they were defeated in such a short time; given the level of those invaders, it should have been impossible for them to do so.
"Do you still remember the original strategy?"
Leoric flashed a strange smile, revealing his perfectly aligned teeth.
The person in charge paused for a moment, then seemed to realize something, and his pupils contracted uncontrollably.
...The initial countermeasures.
It was Lord Leoric Zhen and his "butler" Imralis who planned to capture the intruders alive and find out the whereabouts of Lord Gros Hornfury.
Perhaps they didn't have high expectations, but by searching the intruder's memories, they could at least obtain some information!
--so.
Initially, the defense mechanism of the "outer city" was not intended to be activated, firstly because it was unnecessary, and secondly to prevent the enemy from identifying trap information.
Unexpectedly, Silver Olive refused Lord Zhen's order.
Unauthorized action!
She was somewhat annoyed by this, even though she knew that Silver Olive had acted so rudely and disrespectfully because of the missing Lord Gros Hornfury.
That's right!
If it weren't for Silver Olive's unauthorized actions, the intruders would likely have encountered, no, they would have inevitably encountered, Lord Leoric Zhen.
That killer move that defeated the "failure"...
A chill ran through me.
She didn't believe that Lord Leoric Shock could be defeated by such lowly creatures, but the example of Gros Hornfury's disappearance was right before her eyes.
Whoosh!
A thick arm was raised in front of his eyes.
"...Guardian."
The head of the secretary's appearance department exclaimed excitedly, "If that's the case, then you don't need to risk your life personally!"
Leoric Zhen ignored these words, his sharp, cold eyes fixed on the end of the street, as if he could see an intruder preparing to flee.
What an interesting prey!
It's been hundreds of years since we've encountered this.
"Dragon's Bloodline!"
Leoric Zhen's lower limb muscles suddenly tensed, followed by dense blue arcs of electricity spreading across his legs, unleashing a terrifying aura:
"Dragon Zen Steps!"
Bang!
The ground beneath my feet shook.
Leoric Zhen's body transformed into a straight blue bolt of lightning and vanished from the spot.
Using the "Guild Ring" would allow one to appear directly in front of the two intruders; however, having learned this the hard way centuries ago,
Even if he were 100% certain that he could eliminate the intruders, Leoric Shock would not carry the "Guild Ring".
…………
The Hundred-Bones Dragon King's mountain-like figure vanished without a trace!
The mental shock caused by hundreds and thousands of sharp screechs came to an abrupt halt, and the fog-like curse energy and the stench permeating the air also dissipated like bubbles.
It did not dissipate.
It's killing!
The view in front of Tang Zheng and his companion suddenly disappeared, and the towering "Aurora City Gate" reappeared.
"Phew, we won."
Blood vessels appeared on Zesshi Zesshi's pale face, but unaffected by the various negative effects, her weakened strength was recovering.
"Even such a powerful monster can be killed instantly!"
That's to say.
As expected of the power of the "Dark God".
Jue Si Jue Ming looked at Tang Zheng in front of him, feeling a little smug.
Didn't you see that even this man in front of you could only repel that disgusting monster, the True Dragon King, through magic?
He wouldn't use this trump card if there were a better way to kill the enemy.
From this perspective...
Zesshi Zesshi's lips curled up at both corners, indicating that he was very valuable.
"Next."
Jue Si Jue Ming straightened up, took a step towards Tang Zheng, and said, "We..."
"Throw the cross-shaped scythe over here!!"
Tang Zheng suddenly turned to look at Jueshi Jueshi, shouted loudly, and simultaneously activated his magic:
"Magic Without Casting - Monster Summoning - Cerberus!"
Whoosh!
A blue magic circle appeared beneath their feet.
The ferocious-looking three-headed hellhound leaped out and stood beside Tang Zheng.
Zesshi Zesshi didn't know what had happened, but their long-standing cooperation still allowed her to throw the cross-shaped scythe over immediately.
Meanwhile, on this side...
Tang Zheng quickly pulled out a peculiar short scroll made of silk from under his magic robe and tossed it to the three-headed hellhound beside him.
"Roar! Roar! Roar!"
The three-headed hellhound nimbly opened its mouth, one head biting the strange scroll thrown at it, and the other head biting the cross-shaped scythe flying from the sky.
This action has just been completed.
"Can you tell me what you, this lowly creature, are doing?"
A chilling cold swept over us.
The blue lightning bolts formed a "Z" shape, instantly passing through the deadly realms and rushing towards Tang Zheng.
So fast!
It is almost impossible to spot with the naked eye.
"Heat it up!" Tang Zheng activated the magic without hesitation.
—Boom!
The intense light covered the entire area, followed by a heat wave shockwave that erupted violently and instantly in the region.
Cerberus possesses "complete resistance to fire".
The high temperature generated by the "heating" had no effect on it, but the shock wave that was so close by still blasted Cerberus away.
Due to its position and angle, Cerberus was blasted away in the direction of the "Aurora Gate".
A violent heatwave surged forth!
Blue lightning condensed into a blurry figure in the distorted, steaming air amidst the heatwave. The opponent was not blasted away, but merely retreated from its high-speed movement.
Does it deal fire and blunt damage?
Leoric Zhen felt the scorching heat impacting his body, allowing him to instantly analyze the damage attributes of the magic.
It does not contain the negative effect of "repelling".
It's just a type of physical damage caused by a shockwave.
A momentary gap appears in the dazzling light and the shockwave of heat, where the intensity diminishes.
"Shock Fist"
Leoric Vibration moved with lightning speed. His skin, which had turned crimson due to the high temperature and was steaming hot, struck Tang Zheng with a punch.
Bang!
An invisible wave was released from his fist, forming a fan-shaped impact that covered the area where Tang Zheng was located.
"High-level teleportation!"
Tang Zheng instantly activated the teleportation, but his body remained standing in the same spot, showing no signs of moving.
Can it limit the attack power of teleportation magic?
Before I could analyze it further, the fist was already in sight.
That's too fast!
Tang Zheng was shocked, and it was too late to release another spell for defense or attack.
Bang!
The terrifying blow struck Tang Zheng directly in the chest, causing a visible burst of energy to erupt from his chest. His body was sent flying like a steamed shrimp.
"Magic Without Casting - Damage Shift!"
My vision suddenly blurred.
Tang Zheng fell awkwardly onto the pale marble floor for the first time, tumbling several times before regaining his balance.
"This level of performance is very disappointing."
Leoric Zhen grinned maliciously, glancing out of the corner of his eye at the Cerberus that had also been blasted away:
"Did you summon that monster so it could relay information to that reptile residing in 'Cloud Crystal Plaza'?"
"A pointless act!"
The supreme god-kings once said that in battle, one should prioritize dealing with opponents like magic casters who can create all sorts of trouble.
certainly.
The attack on Tang Zheng was not only because of his identity as a magic chanter, but also because the female intruder used an "impossible" trump card.
This magic caster had not used similar methods before. Assuming that the opponent also possessed a trump card of that level, it would naturally be the priority to eliminate them!
Bang!
With a stomp of the foot.
Leoric Zhen vanished like a phantom, heading straight for Tang Zheng, whom he had just knocked away.
—Whoosh!
Just then.
"Clean Throwing Gun"
A sacred spear pierced the air, transforming into a white streak of light in the sky, and flew towards them at an even greater speed.
"kindness?"
Leoric Zhen paused mid-movement, raised his right hand, and swung it sharply behind him:
"Block missiles!"
Although it's a hammer blow to the air, it's as if the attack is against an invisible wall, forming a semi-transparent barrier. This skill can block all flying objects and attacks.
The expected situation of withstanding the attack did not occur!
The sacred spear pierced through the barrier and struck Leoric Zhen precisely in the chest with a muffled "bang".
pain!
It wasn't the kind of intense pain, but rather a piercing, tearing sensation.
Leoric Zhen stared in astonishment at the "Cleansing Throwing Gun" embedded in his chest, a profound sense of humiliation welling up within him.
He actually got hurt by a tiny crawler!
"You—you damned bug!"
Leoric Zhen's eyes widened, his bloodthirsty gaze sweeping over the Deathly Desperate figures behind him. "Since you wish to die, I will grant you death."
"Come on then, you bastard!"
Zetsuki, his eyes bloodshot, charged forward, laughing maniacally, a longsword appearing in his hand at the same time.
"How dare you hurt him! I'll kill you too!"
In addition to carrying a cross-shaped scythe, she also has a spare weapon.
"Inferior creatures!"
Upon hearing the desperate cry of death, Leoric Zhen's killing intent became almost tangible, and he vanished from his spot in an instant.
A flash of blue lightning!
Before Zetsuki could even react, she saw Leoric Zhen appear menacingly before her.
Wow, so fast!
A punch came flying in.
Without any extra techniques, pure force crushed the air in front of the fist, and the resulting shockwave flattened the skin on Zetsuki Zetsuki's face.
Will...die!
"Perception of Possibility"
"Possibility Beyond Perception"
"Extreme Avoidance"
A fleeting sense of death.
This caused Zesshi Zesshi to unleash an astonishing reaction, turning his head to the left.
puff!
Leoric Zhen's fist grazed along Zesshi Zetsumei's right cheek.
Even though he managed to dodge it, the destructive force of the punch still managed to scrape off half of Zesshi Zesshi's left cheek.
Flesh and blood were shredded by the force of the punch, turning into a blood mist!
Before I could even register the excruciating pain, the difference was too great…
She knew who the monster in front of her was!
Madness flashed in Zesshi Zesshi's heterochromatic eyes as he swung his longsword, aiming at the armpit of his opponent's fist from below with an extremely precise angle.
However!
Leoric Zhen's fist transformed into a claw in mid-air, instantly pressing down on Zesshi Zesshi's right shoulder and grabbing it forcefully.
"Click!"
Zesshi Zesshi's left shoulder was crushed to pieces, and his right hand, which was wielding the sword, was rendered useless on the spot.
bang
Leoric's attack didn't end there. With a cruel, bloodthirsty smile, he raised his right leg and, using his knee as a pivot, viciously slammed it into Zetsu Zetsu's chest.
If this blow lands squarely, death is certain!
"Shield of Impure Impact!"
Jue Si Jue Ming let out a deafening roar.
The crimson-black energy emanated from itself, creating an unstoppable force that not only blocked Leoric Zhen's attack but also sent him flying.
Hiss—hiss—
Leoric Zhen's legs scraped against the ground, making a screeching sound.
Clang~
The longsword fell to the ground.
"Huff... huff..."
Jue Shi Jue Ming gasped for breath, biting his lip hard. Large amounts of blood streamed down his face along with his sweat, and his right hand hung limply, dripping with blood.
Looking ahead at the figure that had been briefly forced back.
A bitter smile crept into Jue Si Jue Ming's heart.
The exchange just now!
In the blink of an eye, she had been brought to the brink of death twice; this was definitely the strongest enemy she had ever encountered.
It's not the magical power of characters like the Platinum Dragon King or Tang Zheng!
Some naturally strong individuals often have inherent flaws, such as being too physically gifted and being completely accustomed to winning by overwhelming others with sheer strength.
at this point.
Whether it was the former Zetsu Zetsumei, the captain of the God-like team, or those Dragon Kings, they were all used to this style of fighting.
And this kind of opponent.
Most people tend to underestimate clever tricks or deceitful maneuvers, and are complacent about improving themselves through hard work.
Simply put, there is a lack of competitors of the same level.
Jue Si Jue Ming had long realized this, and through his battle with Tang Zheng, he further understood his past arrogance.
Therefore, they had already begun to proactively improve their combat skills and techniques.
But at this moment!
The exchange just happened in a split second.
Zesshi Zesshi knew perfectly well that she had been completely outmatched in both strength and skill.
