Chapter 2418
The Resentful Orphan's size wasn't large, and it was humanoid as a whole. Its speed was extremely fast, and its eyes were full of madness and hatred.
"Roar!"
The Resentful Orphan roared, and sparks emerged on all the buildings within half a kilometer, waves of heat rising.
Fire + Light + Darkness was the characteristic of the Ancient God power in Omen Town. Fire should be a characteristic that appeared later, while Light + Darkness was the initial characteristic of this Ancient God power.
The Resentful Orphan clearly wasn't very friendly. If it weren't for Su Xiao's blood aura and the black smoke swirling around the short Kiserl, the Resentful Orphan would have already pounced.
*Bang! *
The Resentful Orphan stepped on the stone building under its feet, gravel splashing everywhere. That meant this was its territory, telling the short Kiserl to get out.
"Resentful one, we're going to slaughter the Archbishop. If you're not afraid of death, you can come along."
"Roar!"
The Resentful Orphan ignored the short Kiserl. Looking at that appearance, it was ready to pounce at any time.
"Your mother was killed by the Archbishop. This is your mother's holy relic."
Su Xiao threw a skeleton toward the Resentful Orphan. The Resentful Orphan leaped back continuously. With a 'Plop!', a skeleton was shattered.
The Resentful Orphan leaped forward, slapping the ground with its claws, turning the skeleton on the ground into bone powder. The bone powder splashed onto its arm, and its body paused, looking at the bone powder drifting in front of it.
A sharp, mournful cry spread. This sound was like crying, and also like a sharp roar, very ear-piercing.
The Resentful Orphan lunged onto the pile of bone powder, wanting to hold the bone powder in its arms.
Seeing this scene, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang and Baha were full of surprise, and Baha even asked in the team channel.
Baha: "Boss, where did that holy relic come from? Did we obtain that thing?"
Su Xiao: "Picked it up on the way."
Baha: "???"
Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang: "???"
Clearly, that wasn't the holy relic of the Resentful Orphan's mother. The Resentful Orphan's reaction at this time was very intriguing.
"After the Archbishop killed your mother, he kept her remains in the church, soaking them in the 'Baptism Pool'."
"Roar!!"
The Resentful Orphan roared as if it had gone crazy. It suddenly disappeared on the spot, and when it appeared again, it was already in front of Su Xiao, sharp claws grabbing toward Su Xiao's throat.
"Kill me, and you won't see the Archbishop until you die."
The claws stopped abruptly. The Resentful Orphan tilted its head, looking at Su Xiao, a threatening low roar coming from its throat.
"So, you agree?"
"Roar!"
The Resentful Orphan slapped a stone building beside it, and the stone building instantly disappeared, the fragments disappearing into the sky.
"Very good, next stop, go find the Ghost Snake Sisters."
"Give up. Those sisters live more freely than anyone else; they are really... too embarrassing."
The short Kiserl's tone was somewhat helpless. Su Xiao didn't know much about the Ghost Snake Sisters.
"Roar."
The Resentful Orphan seemed to express agreement. It had long wanted to slaughter those sisters. As an existence occupying one side in Omen Town, being on the same level as the Ghost Snake Sisters made the Resentful Orphan feel displeased.
The attitude of the short Kiserl and the Resentful Orphan made Su Xiao decide not to look for the Ghost Snake Sisters. Those two sisters indeed didn't have much presence, and various events had nothing to do with them.
The short Kiserl was willing to deal with the Archbishop, which was reasonable. The other party had long noticed that something was wrong with the Redemption Church, so he disguised himself as a giant skeleton. This guy was waiting for the timing. Now that the timing had come, he just went with the flow and joined in. Once the Archbishop was too strong, this guy would likely retreat.
Su Xiao naturally wouldn't give the short Kiserl a chance to retreat. Once the fight started, no one would be able to leave.
As for the Resentful Orphan, it was willing to deal with the Archbishop, which required caution. If utilized well, the Resentful Orphan was a super thug; if not utilized well, this guy might be more dangerous than the Archbishop in the end.
Entering the Seventh Tier middle-to-high area, Su Xiao's pressure wasn't small. If he had already promoted to the Seventh Tier, he would definitely deal with the Archbishop first, and then deal with the Resentful Orphan, which would be more stable.
With Su Xiao's current strength, this was fundamentally impossible, so he had to find another way. As the saying goes, only magic can deal with magic. Letting the short Kiserl and the Resentful Orphan deal with the ultimate big boss of Omen Town was very suitable. At that time, Su Xiao would naturally also make a move.
The Ash Furnace wasn't urgent for the time being. If he wanted the Ash Furnace now, the short Kiserl would directly flip out. The exploration of the main quest didn't need to be rushed either. After solving the Archbishop, exploring Omen Town would be much simpler.
The only hidden danger right now was that Qiyuezhe from Death Paradise. Su Xiao had never underestimated the destructive ability of a Qiyuezhe. If he didn't solve Killer Bee, it would be troublesome if this woman reaped the benefits when dealing with the Archbishop.
"Before dealing with the Archbishop, I have something to do."
"Nothing is more important than killing the Archbishop."
The short Kiserl stared at Su Xiao. After a moment, the short Kiserl snorted coldly, and the Resentful Orphan looked up at the sky. No one had stipulated that big bosses always had to be in a state of baring fangs and brandishing claws.
"There's a woman I need to get rid of."
"A woman? Besides you, are there other outsiders in Omen Town?"
"Yes."
"Alive?"
"Yes."
"Wait for me a while."
The short Kiserl leaped onto the giant skeleton, and the giant skeleton roared, layers of air waves spreading.
Before long, a pale little hand reached out from a nearby stone building.
"Short uncle, so cute..."
A child's voice came. Three pairs of eyes looked at the source, and the child's voice stopped abruptly. The feeling of being stared at by three big bosses could be imagined. One was full of blood aura, one had black smoke rising from his body, and the last one was crazy to the point of hysteria.
The pale little hand chickened out, shrinking back into the wall.
"Let your leafy friend find out, where is the woman in the town?"
"Okay, okay."
The pale little hand disappeared back into the wall and escaped. Seeing this scene, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang's tail wagged happily. Revenge was sweet. That meant: 'Little hand, you have today too.'
After the pale little hand disappeared, Su Xiao sat on the steps by the street, took out a few Soul Crystals, threw one into his mouth, and chewed slowly. Seeing this, the short Kiserl and the Resentful Orphan weren't surprised.
A few minutes later, the pale little hand reached out from the wall again.
"Found her, she's over by the high wall in the middle."
After leaving this sentence, the pale little hand shrank back into the wall and escaped. For the near future, she wouldn't dare to wander around Omen Town.
Half an hour later, in an abandoned mill near the Furnace Wall in the middle of Omen Town.
Killer Bee sat leaning against the wall, chewing a biscuit slowly. Oisi stood near her, her expression wooden.
At this time, Killer Bee had returned to her twenty-something appearance. She looked at a cloth bag in her hand. The ash inside wasn't much left. Before this thing was exhausted, she would lose the qualification to explore in Omen Town.
"Sixth Tier bastard, actually daring to come to Omen Town to stir up trouble."
Although Killer Bee said this, she remained vigilant in her heart. She didn't treat Su Xiao as a Sixth Tier Qiyuezhe at all.
"Immortal Man, Redemption Church, what kind of mess is all this."
Killer Bee dropped the biscuit in her hand. She hadn't explored many places, and her only feeling was that Omen Town was not only dangerous, but all kinds of events were completely clueless.
"Woof."
The sudden bark almost made Killer Bee jump. The ring on her hand spread a shockwave, and then, her eyes were both incredulous and pleasantly surprised. That Sixth Tier bastard had actually taken the initiative to find her.
"Oisi, you ambush in the dark."
Killer Bee rushed forward as she spoke, jumping out of the window. Just after landing, her gaze looked to the right side of the street.
Su Xiao was standing at the end of the street, Baha landing on his shoulder, Amu standing behind him, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang squatting beside his leg.
Seeing this scene, Killer Bee pulled out two short blades from both sides of her lower legs. Compared to long-range means, her close-quarters combat ability was stronger.
The two short blades in Killer Bee's hands were somewhat dark blue; this was poison. There was a reason for the nickname Killer Bee.
Killer Bee didn't plan to talk nonsense. She lowered her body slightly, preparing to rush toward Su Xiao. She wanted to finish the fight quickly to avoid alerting the giant skeleton big boss nearby, even though she didn't know where that big boss had run off to.
Just as the muscles on Killer Bee's legs slightly bulged, preparing to make a move, a whistling wind came from above.
*Whoosh~*
After a whimper, a behemoth fell from above, smashing into the building beside the street. A large area of houses was smashed down, gravel and broken wood splashing everywhere, smoke and dust rising.
The smoke and dust gradually drifted away. On the building ruins was a giant skeleton with only its upper body left. It was over twenty meters tall. In one of its bone hands, it was dragging a short person wearing a dark gold mask and hanging a circle of ornaments on his waist, black smoke drifting on his body.
After the sound of light stepping, Killer Bee immediately turned her head, and a dark brown humanoid monster came into view.
Madness, anger, hysteria—that feeling was like wanting to tear all living creatures to pieces. Killer Bee had seen this monster; she had seen it once from afar earlier and had immediately fled. This was the Resentful Orphan.
Killer Bee glanced at Su Xiao, then looked at the short Kiserl, and finally looked at the Resentful Orphan. Her mouth opened and closed a few times, wanting to say something, but she didn't know what to say.
"Wait!"
Killer Bee took a deep breath and then exhaled slowly.
"I say everything before was a misunderstanding, do you believe me?"
Killer Bee smiled very reluctantly. She really couldn't think of any situation that would be more desperate than now. She felt that she was a bit broken.
