Chapter 143

Gravel flew as Wumusi's feet sank deep into the brick and stone ground.

Pulling his legs out, rubble fell with a 'clatter', revealing a pair of pitch-black, sinister mechanical legs.

The Tuchi Brothers looked nervously at the semi-mechanical elf blocking their path; just from the momentum of his entry, they could tell this guy was not comparable to the group in Old John's courtyard, definitely an expert who had already stepped into the intermediate tier.

The two brothers looked at each other.

Did we also scam the money of the person in front of us?

"Where are Mr. Frank and Miss Alice?"

So he was just asking for directions; the Tuchi Brothers breathed a sigh of relief, then exchanged a glance, and the two brothers pointed in perfect unison toward the inside of Old John's shop.

"They were caught by the bear man (grey dwarf) inside!"

Although the people they pointed out were wrong, the matter they spoke of was the same; one had to say these two brothers were truly wicked to the same degree.

Upon hearing this, red light flashed in Wumusi's eyes, and he immediately charged into Old John's shop.

Just as he reached the door, he saw the bear man and the grey dwarf rushing out with equally bloodshot eyes.

The people matched; Wumusi's mechanical arm lit up with magic circuits, and with one hand each, he instantly grabbed the bear man and the grey dwarf by the throat and pinned them to the wall.

"Where are Mr. Frank and Miss Alice?"

Both the bear man and the grey dwarf were races known for their strength, but under Wumusi's mechanical arm, they were held by their throats as helplessly as two infants.

"Oh... cough, cough... crack..."

Wumusi released the grey dwarf with one hand, while the other hand remained tightly clamped on the bear man's throat.

"Where are Mr. Frank and Miss Alice?"

This time, Wumusi was asking the grey dwarf who had fallen to the ground.

"Cough, cough, what?"

The bewildered grey dwarf hadn't reacted yet and instinctively asked back.

"Crack!"

The mechanical arm, glowing with magic circuits, pierced through the grey dwarf's eye socket with a sharp whistling sound, skewering the furry head like a candied hawthorn.

Flipping the grey dwarf's corpse away with one hand, the red light in Wumusi's eyes intensified as he stared fixedly at the eyes of the bear man, Beili.

This time he didn't speak, just released the bear man's neck and watched him.

Wumusi's brutal methods immediately stunned everyone at the scene; having spent many years in Fantexi City, Beili naturally knew who could be offended and who could not.

The moment Wumusi released his throat, he pointed toward the end of the street.

"Lao Fulanke and little Alice are right in the clothing store at the end of the street; they haven't left the house today!"

Wumusi looked up and immediately saw the 'Riddle Men's Clothing Store' at the end of the street; he could even clearly see Lao Fulanke's grey-haired head through the display window.

Human! Associating this with the Baron's race, Wumusi immediately knew he had found the right people!

Then... someone lied to me?!

Two sharp arm blades popped out from his two mechanical arms.

"Swish!"

Wumusi's figure appeared behind the dumbfounded Tuchi Brothers as if teleporting, and then two shocked heads rolled to the ground, a chest of hot blood staining the ground red.

Retracting his arm blades, Wumusi walked toward the end of the street with an ease as if he had just crushed two ants.

Looking at the three fresh corpses on the street, Beili's heart had never beaten so fast; it was too terrifying for a bear, and he had truly escaped with his life.

The business between his group and the Tuchi Brothers seemed as ridiculous as children playing house in front of such a person.

"Be... Brother Beili, tell me, where did Lao Fulanke meet such a person? They wouldn't have caused a huge disaster outside, would they! Should we just run away quickly?"

The one speaking was the fishman Apao from the next street, who had also been scammed by the Tuchi Brothers; he was always timid, so he had spent years hanging out with the strong and robust bear man Beili.

"Don't talk nonsense. Didn't you hear that dark elf use honorifics when mentioning Lao Fulanke and little Alice just now? Besides, where can we run to now? After the devil Beiruier arrives, even if you hide in the Fantexi River, you'll just float up as a dried fish!"

Apao shuddered at the bear man's mention of 'dried fish' and couldn't help but ask.

"Then... Brother Beili, what do you think we should do now? The Tuchi Brothers, that pair of scammers, are already dead; we can't run away!"

The bear man thought of Xie Yaoyao's joking refusal and the calmness in his eyes when he invited Lao Fulanke and the others, plus such a dark elf powerhouse paying a visit, and the bear man gritted his teeth.

Gamble on it; it's death either way!

"How would I know what to do? Let's go, go home and wait for death!"

"Ah?!"

The bear man didn't speak again, just pushed the back of his little brother the fishman and took the lead in walking home.

The neighbors in Old John's shop, who had recovered from the 'Flash Technique' one after another, also heard the bear man Beili's words, and one by one they showed looks of confusion, not knowing what to do next!

After returning to the shop, Beili immediately squatted at the door with his fishman little brother, keeping a constant watch on the movements of the clothing store next door.

And at this moment, inside the clothing store next door, just like when she first met Xie Yaoyao, little Alice was hiding behind Lao Fulanke, looking nervously at the robot in front of her.

Fortunately, like Xie Yaoyao, this robot's attitude was also very gentle.

"Mr. Frank! Miss Alice! I am here to protect you under the orders of Baron Riddle!"

Baron Riddle?

It's Mr. Tom! Mr. Tom calls himself Tom Riddle!

When he first mentioned this name, I knew it was an alias; Mr. Tom is a Chinese person, he must have just picked the alias casually after seeing the 'Riddle Men's Clothing Store' name on our shop sign.

But!

Baron?

Could it be that Mr. Tom is really named Tom Riddle?

Is everything fate?

But there's no time to worry about that now!

"Hello! I am Frank! I don't know what the Baron said?"

"The Baron ordered me to follow your commands!"

"Me?" Lao Fulanke's mind immediately conjured up Xie Yaoyao's gentle smiling face, and he was filled with gratitude. "Okay, I understand! I hope that in the most critical moment, you will prioritize the safety of this child, can you do that?"

Wumusi turned to Alice, who was peeking half her little head from behind Lao Fulanke, and nodded.

"Of course, I will protect Miss Alice's safety with my life! Baron... oh no!"

Wumusi crashed through the door and appeared outside; Lao Fulanke hurriedly followed with Alice, looking in the direction of the City Lord's Mansion along Wumusi's gaze.

A flame sword over a thousand meters long pierced from the void, subsequently tearing a huge, incomparable hole in the sky.

Then that rift grew larger and larger, and a giant devil several thousand meters tall revealed its true form!

It was the Devil Grand Duke Beiruier; he had really been summoned from the Endless Hell by Earl Graz!

With the appearance of the devil Beiruier, devils of all sizes kept rushing out of the dimensional rift from the crack in the sky, grinning hideously.

"Mr. Frank! Miss Alice! Please come with me!"

Wumusi led the two of them toward one direction without hesitation; it was the Menhu Port where the big explosion had occurred earlier.

Just as the three of them left, the bear man Beili and the fishman Apao from the bakery next door followed, muttering to themselves constantly.

"Quick, quick, follow! There's a glimmer of hope if we follow them! I knew it, I knew that kid was so calm, he must have a way!"
