Chapter 701: An Interesting Little One

"Report, the enemy's trail has been captured. The person coming is... the Swordsman!"

In Ellen's earpiece, the voice of a DEM staff member came through, though it was tinged with a trace of panic; clearly, they had not expected the person coming to be this god of slaughter.

"Only the Swordsman alone?" Ellen asked with some doubt.

"Yes, currently only the Swordsman's trail has been discovered!"

"Wrong, the Swordsman has always appeared together with the Nightmare. Now the Nightmare must also be in this place. Find her for me!"

"Yes!"

"Hee hee hee—"

Just at this moment, a hair-raising laughter suddenly rang out from the ears of the DEM personnel. From the shadows of the DEM building, dozens of Kurumi suddenly emerged and launched an attack on the DEM wizards. Several DEM wizards were caught off guard and had their blood splattered on the spot immediately.

"Ellen, why don't you send out the robot troops to assist us?" Jessica asked Ellen with a look of dissatisfaction.

"Don't you know? The Swordsman possesses the ability to control robots. If we send out the robots, we are just adding enemies for ourselves!" Ellen said crossly.

Suddenly, several Light Cannons struck from behind the two. But neither Ellen nor Jessica were ordinary wizards; they dodged the attacks between shifts of their figures.

"These are the robot troops stored in the underground warehouse. But how could they be activated and even launch an attack on us?" Seeing the existences attacking her, Jessica's expression changed slightly.

"It's bad, Department Head, our underground warehouse has been infiltrated by unknown personnel. The opponent has activated all the robot troops!" A voice carrying a hint of panic came from their earpieces, causing both of their expressions to sink.

Neither of them had expected that even if they did not activate the robot troops, the opponent could still seize control of the robots and simultaneously launch an attack on them.

"Quick, the two of us will join forces to deal with the Swordsman. Everyone else, go deal with the robot troops and those clones of the Nightmare!" Ellen said to Jessica beside her.

Jessica bit her lip with some resentment, but with a great enemy before them, she could not refute Ellen's order and could only follow Ellen to kill in the direction of Lingyun.

"Are you here?" Lingyun's figure hovered in mid-air, and he captured the two figures killing toward him at once. "Is it one more person this time? But, it is still of no use!"

"Clang—"

When the two Light Swords collided with Lingyun's, both Ellen and Jessica felt a massive force surging toward them. Their expressions changed slightly, and they had to retreat several steps to unload the powerful force on the swords.

"I didn't expect your injuries to heal so quickly. It seems DEM really spent quite a bit of effort for you, this Executive Director!" Lingyun forced the two back with one sword and said with a leisurely expression.

Ellen's expression sank slightly. She discovered that she seemed to have underestimated Lingyun's strength after all; at the very least, that sword strike just now was not something comparable to the force from when they last fought.

"As expected of the elite troops of DEM, this kind of combat power is worthy of praise!" Lingyun swept a glance over the battlefield, and the corners of his mouth slowly curled up.

The DEM wizards this time were indeed much stronger than before; at least when facing the siege of the Kurumi clones and the robot troops, they did not fall into too great a crisis.

"However, their opponents this time are not that simple!"

Lingyun saw two phantoms identical to him slowly appear behind him, and then they pounced toward the direction of the battlefield. Ellen's expression changed slightly; she saw clearly that the appearance of those two phantoms was exactly the same as Lingyun.

"Not good, stop them quickly!"

Ellen gripped the Light Sword in her hand and was about to chase in the direction of the two phantoms. However, a sharp Sword Qi interrupted her footsteps, and Lingyun appeared before her, smiling while holding his Long sword.

"Do you regard me as air?"

"Isn't it just a Swordsman, what is there to be afraid of? I, Jessica, am not afraid of you!" A roar suddenly rang out from Lingyun's ear, and a sharp sword pierced the air, rapidly approaching Lingyun's temple.

"Ding—"

Just as the Light Sword approached Lingyun, a thin sword appeared in Lingyun's left hand, and with one strike, it hit the tip of the Light Sword exactly. Jessica instantly felt as if an incomparably powerful wall had appeared before her Light Sword, preventing it from advancing even an inch.

While Lingyun used the thin sword to hold off Jessica's attack, Ellen on the side also launched a fierce attack. The two fought into a ball in mid-air, four swords clashing against each other, and the splashing sparks displayed the intensity of the battle.

At the same time, in a skyscraper, Xia Shi was typing rapidly on the computer in front of her. In front of her was another girl; that girl was not Tina, but Yui.

"Yui, how is the decryption going?" Senju Kayo asked from the side.

"Hmm, it's already 30% decrypted. If it weren't to avoid being detected by them and causing a secret transfer of Sister Tohka, and instead using a brute-force decryption method, the progress should be at 60% by now." There were countless data flowing in Yui's eyes. "However, I have already blocked most of the entrances and exits of this building. Once all the entrances and exits are sealed, we can coordinate with Sister Kurumi's side and directly use brute-force decryption!"

"You've really worked hard, Yui." Senju Kayo said to Yui.

"No need, this is all to help Dad. If anything happened to Sister Tohka, Dad would probably be very depressed too!" Yui shook her head with a smile, while a trace of an interesting glint flashed in her eyes. "Besides, I discovered a very interesting little one over there. Maybe we can trick her over when the time comes!"

"An interesting little one?" Senju Kayo raised her head with a trace of doubt in her eyes, but at this moment Yui had already buried her head in breaking through the DEM defense system and did not answer her question.

On the top floor, Tina had already assembled the sniper rifle in her hand and aimed the lens at the distant battlefield. With the adjustment of the scope, the situation on the battlefield gradually became clear. The moment the battlefield became clear, Tina's eyes instantly turned blood-red. At the same time, invisible fluctuations dissipated from her body, causing her whole person to hide into the Void.

"Bang—"

A muffled sound rang out on the chest of a DEM member; that was the sound of a Territory being shattered. Subsequently, a miserable flower of blood exploded on her chest. The eyes of that DEM member became dazed in an instant, clearly not knowing why she had lost her life just like that.

"Main body, there are many places in this building that have Realizers that block spiritual power. Although we can crack them, we cannot do so without alerting others." In the shadow before Tokisaki Kurumi, a Kurumi clone poked her head out and said to her with a helpless face.

Looking at this clone before her, Tokisaki Kurumi looked helpless: "I know what you want to do. I had to work hard to get that thing from Lingyun. I'll give you at most one-fifth, hurry up and take action!"

"Yes, guarantee to complete the mission!" A trace of joy appeared on the Kurumi clone's face, and then she quickly disappeared into the shadows.

"These guys, one by one, have started bargaining with me now. It seems it's time to have a good talk with them and let them know who the real boss is!"

Watching the disappearing clone, Tokisaki Kurumi sneered, her figure sank into the darkness once again, and she ran toward the next destination.
