Chapter 2093
Su Xiao turned his gaze to look at Elsa. Elsa stopped in her tracks; without anyone to cover her, turning her back on an enemy was a certain death sentence.
"I hid 300,000 silver coins somewhere in Heru City."
Elsa took off her hood. Beneath her clothes, fine cracks gradually spread across her skin; she was preparing to perish together with Su Xiao.
Su Xiao stepped toward Elsa, but stopped after only two steps. He tilted his head to look upward, which made Elsa's heart skip a beat—her time was running out.
"What are you looking at?"
The corners of Elsa's lips curled up; under the night sky, she had a mysterious, glamorous allure.
Su Xiao ignored Elsa, as if something above had caught his attention.
"Look over there."
Su Xiao pointed to the somewhat reddish full moon in the sky, which made Elsa even more confused. Suddenly, a sound of wind being torn apart came from behind her.
*Puchi! *
Sharp claws pierced into the back of Elsa's neck. Baha, having dived down behind Elsa's head, spread its wings wide and pulled with force, snapping Elsa's spine.
The last scene Elsa saw was a brilliant flash of a blade, followed by darkness.
"A wizard's brain is truly abnormal."
The Boundary-Breaking Thread shot out from Su Xiao's cuff, coiled around an Epic-grade treasure chest, and pulled it back into his hand. As for what he had been looking at earlier, it was merely to attract the enemy's attention and create an opportunity for Baha.
Although the wizards' abilities were not flashy, they were extremely powerful and unfathomably mysterious. Su Xiao felt a sense of crisis from both Morn Di and Morn Elsa; a moment of carelessness could lead to a disaster.
Of course, as long as Su Xiao didn't reveal any flaws, these three wizards had no chance of defeating him, just like now.
Su Xiao walked toward the east side of the block, where the sounds of fighting could already be heard.
*Boom! *
A figure crashed into the clock tower, falling onto the street along with some rubble.
"Cough, cough..."
Morn Di shook his head and climbed up from the ground; by now, his face was covered in blood.
A figure standing three meters tall walked out from the shadows. Cold air billowed from the bull horns on its head—it was Amu. Or rather, it had been lying in ambush nearby to prevent anyone from the Morn family from escaping.
Could Morn Di reflect damage? Amu didn't care at all; the thing it feared least was being beaten. Moreover, most of Amu's attacks were blunt strikes, and the damage reduction effect of the Winter Bloodline, along with the internal defense of ice energy, meant the damage it sustained was much lower than imagined.
Su Xiao, Amu, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, and Baha surrounded Morn Di. Morn Di sneered and lunged directly at Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, because Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang looked the weakest.
Two minutes later, Morn Di was planted head-first in a small alley. Morn Di was also unlucky; of all people to provoke, he had to target the squad's key protected object, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang.
With this, the Morn family's plan was shattered; they were intercepted and killed before they even saw Caesar.
In the alley, Morn Di was bound by chains made of ice. This guy's ability was somewhat similar to Hidan from the Naruto World. Unlike Hidan, he didn't have an immortal body, but his ability was more comprehensive than Hidan's; he didn't need to obtain the enemy's blood. Whoever hurt him, he could reflect the damage he sustained back to them with several times the intensity.
"Caesar, is..."
Before Morn Di could finish his sentence, Amu gave him a hammer blow, which made Amu grunt, as if he had been punched by an invisible force in the chest.
"Two questions. After you answer, you can die."
Su Xiao squatted in front of Morn Di, signaling Amu not to continue attacking.
"Hahaha..."
Morn Di laughed gloomily. With a mouth full of blood, he looked up at Su Xiao and said, "Are you questioning the authority of the Morn family?"
Su Xiao took an Alchemy Raven out of his storage space. After activating it, he threw the Endless Darkness Collar to the raven. After conveying the final order to the raven, he cut off the mental link with it.
*Click! *
The Endless Darkness Collar was locked onto Morn Di's neck. As soon as it activated, Su Xiao crushed the Alchemy Raven.
With a *bang*, the raven exploded, and a formation made of blood appeared, gradually evaporating into the air.
"Even if I die, I will not..."
The Endless Darkness Collar activated. The luster in Morn Di's eyes faded, and his head hit the ground with a *thud*.
Five seconds later, Su Xiao removed the Endless Darkness Collar from Morn Di's neck.
"Ah!"
Morn Di let out a strange cry. Seeing his expression, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang's dog face went blank, and it thought to itself that it was over.
"What is the Old God?"
Su Xiao had heard the term "Old God" more than once. The Sorrowful Maiden was favored by the Old God, and the reputation shop could exchange for the Old God's ashes to summon the Old God to assist in battle.
From multiple clues, the Old God stood on the side of humanity and Heru City. They sacrificed themselves, letting the scorching sun burn them to obtain the Holy Silver that could absorb darkness.
Su Xiao felt that it was precisely the appearance of Holy Silver that gave the Light of Hope, Nia, the possibility of opposing "them," although Nia ultimately failed.
"Old God?"
Morn Di looked at Su Xiao with eyes full of confusion.
"That's right, Old God."
Su Xiao frowned; he felt that Morn Di was not quite right.
"Old God! Old God! Ha, haha, hahaha..."
Morn Di twisted his body. Looking at him, if he weren't bound by ice chains, he would have started dancing awkwardly.
"..."
After Su Xiao sensed for a moment and confirmed that the influence of Morn Di's ability had disappeared, he smashed a fist into the opponent's head.
"It hurts, Ignati, why did you hit me!"
Morn Di glared at Su Xiao with eyes full of anger. Su Xiao was now certain that Morn Di could no longer reveal any useful information.
"Kill him."
Su Xiao stepped out of the alley. Amu came before Morn Di and smashed a hammer toward his head...
Walking out of the alley, Su Xiao looked around. The sound of the battle just now was not small, but it didn't attract anyone from the Wizard Society. Clearly, the Wizard Society's management of Heru City was very lax; as long as no major incident occurred, the "Wizard Society" would not intervene.
Checking the Reincarnation Paradise prompt, killing the three wizards yielded a total of 4.2% of the World Source. This was even with the bonus of the Morn family member title. As for the treasure chest, he only obtained one, an Epic-grade treasure chest (47%). Although the quantity was small, the quality was high.
After Amu arrived, Su Xiao no longer felt a shortage of manpower. Therefore, he let Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang continue to keep an eye on the Morn family. The members of that family all lived within the Wizard Society; it was unlikely he would take the initiative to wipe out that family.
As long as the Morn family sent people to assassinate Caesar, Su Xiao would intercept and kill one if one came, and a squad if a squad came.
Moreover, once Caesar made a name for himself, he would use his identity as a guest of the Wizard Society to sell magic potions within the society. Su Xiao didn't believe the Morn family dared to make a move inside the Wizard Society.
Amu and Baha were responsible for Caesar's side; this was the second layer of insurance.
Returning to the Sleep House, Su Xiao sat under the chandelier. He rolled up the sleeve of his right arm. He had only killed three wizards, yet the "darkness" was already spreading to his forearm. Fortunately, the Sorrowful Maiden could clear the "darkness."
