Chapter 56: Arrival
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
When the five assassins saw that someone had made a move, they had wanted to go up and make a move, but when they saw that Klein had used the magic scroll, they immediately backed away again. They had all wanted the others to go up first, preferring to have others die instead of them. Unfortunately, they had all thought of the same thing, so none of the five of them went up in the end, causing the person who had sneak attacked to be injured in vain.
When the strongest person, a level-6 Great Mage, saw that the person was on fire, he immediately used a water ball to extinguish the flames on the other party’s body. At this moment, half of the other party’s body was severely burned. Fortunately, the other party had used magical power to block the attack. Otherwise, he would have already been burned to death. How could he still be alive?
“Why are you here?” This level-6 assassin asked the other party. Half of his body had been burned, and he was in a very bad mood. He looked at him coldly and said, “You’re still asking me why I’m here? I want to ask too, why the target is not dead yet. Also, when I ambushed them just now, why didn’t you all go up? Why were you just watching from the side?”
“…” When the level-6 assassin heard this, he looked embarrassed. Could he say that he was afraid of death?
“Hmph, I can’t be bothered to explain to all of you. Let me tell you, it was the leader who had asked me to come and take a look, to see if you have completed the mission,” the person said as he looked coldly at the five assassins.
“Ah? Is the leader coming too?”
“Of course, and the leader has said that if he comes and you guys still haven’t completed the mission, then you can die together with the target!”
When the five assassins heard this, their expression changed instantly. They knew that they could not delay this anymore, otherwise, they would not be able to withstand the methods of their leader.
“Let’s not delay, let’s attack together!”
With that said, the level-6 assassin activated his magical power. Instantly, his entire body burned with dark blue flames. He was also a Magic Warrior, and then he charged at Serena first.
However, he soon saw that the others were still standing there in a daze, not charging forward to kill, like him. Immediately, the level-6 assassin cursed in his heart.
These guys are still clueless about the consequences. Didn’t they hear that person say the leader is coming? They are actually still so afraid of dying. If the leader arrives, and they have not killed the target, then their outcome will not just be death, but even more tragic than death! Even if they were to be killed by the magic scroll or by the explosion of Serena’s Thunder Pearl, it would just be a matter of a moment. It would be ten thousand times more blissful than being killed by the leader.
“Watch out!”
But just as his mind was racing, one of the assassins’ gaze looked past him to behind him, and warned him loudly. At this moment, he then saw that those few people were all looking behind him, and they were clearly shocked and frightened, and there was still the other party’s warning. He immediately knew that it was not that they did not want to go up, but that they had seen something terrifying and were shocked.
He was, after all, a level-6 Great Mage. He knew that there must be someone very powerful behind him. At this moment, it was probably too late for him to run. In the urgent moment, he immediately condensed a flame shield and turned around. He wanted to use the flame shield to block the attack from behind, but when he turned around, he saw a huge phantom of the blue dragon soul pouncing directly toward him. Then, an almost invisible icy aura pounced upon him. His flame shield was instantly extinguished. Even the dark-blue flames burning on his body were instantly extinguished. Then, his entire body was instantly frozen into an ice popsicle. His consciousness was also instantly seized! At this moment, he was still maintaining a defensive posture!
When everyone saw this, they were all shocked. This was a level-6 Great Mage, yet he was killed instantly in one exchange? They did not even see who had killed him.
Just looking at the phantom of the dragon soul, the few assassins were all extremely terrified, but Serena was suddenly relieved when she saw it. She had seen the phantom of the dragon soul before, and it was the ability of Ron’s Ice Wand.
“Brother Ron’s here!”
When Klein saw it, he too became happy. However, when Howen saw it, his expression became a little unnatural, as if he had recalled some unpleasant memories.
“This is the power of a gold-tier magical weapon. A powerful person is here. We’re not his match. Run!” The few assassins had just reacted and were about to flee.
“Run now? Stay here!” a voice said coldly. Then, the phantom of the dragon soul under his control instantly pounced on the few fleeing assassins. One of the assassins turned around and smashed a fireball, but under the attack of the phantom of the dragon soul, even the magic fireball was immediately frozen and the person was also frozen to death. Then, the phantom of the dragon soul continued to attack the other assassins. When the other assassin saw that the counterattack was useless, he immediately used a Flash Magical Power. He instantly ran tens of meters away, but the phantom of the dragon soul spat out an icy breath and froze the other party to death. The next person saw that counterattack was useless and that escape too was useless. He immediately activated his magical power, and the soil on the ground seemed to ripple like a pool of water. Then, he sank into the soil. He was an earth-based Mage, and this move was his life-saving skill.
If I hide underground, I think I should be fine.
However, he did not know that the phantom of the dragon soul was virtual and not real. The phantom of the dragon soul could be seen diving directly underground. The person died directly underground, still with a shocked expression.
At this time, there was another person who had already run more than a hundred meters away. He was so frightened that he did not dare to turn around and just ran forward with his head lowered. He only hoped that the phantom of a dragon soul would not catch up with him, otherwise, he would be dead for sure. But at this moment, a figure suddenly descended directly in front of him. This person was Ron. How could Ron watch without intervening as they fled? This was the last person. He waved his hand casually, and instantly, an Icy Magic Spell struck the other party. This person was already terrified. He instinctively raised his arm to resist the other party’s magical power with his physical body, but Ron’s Icy Magic Spell directly froze the other party into a popsicle.
Klein and Howen were dumbfounded. These few assassins had been pursuing them for the past few days and had already plunged them into a desperate situation. They managed to barely survive only because they used magical items like the magic scrolls. Even so, they had been forced into a dead end. But now, with Ron’s arrival, these few assassins were all killed in just one exchange.. This was too powerful.
