Chapter 464

"I never expected two to show up at once."

"One A-rank hero."

"One B-rank hero."

"If I could kill you both,"

"I'd receive a huge reward."

With that, he burst into loud laughter.

But soon his gaze fell upon the bat beside him.

"You thing,"

"I thought you hadn't arrived yet."

"But what's this situation you're in now?"

The lantern monster stared at the bat with confusion.

The bat sighed helplessly.

"What situation?"

"Can't you tell? I'm no match for these two."

For him to admit he wasn't a match for these two

was already hard enough.

He certainly wouldn't say more.

The lantern monster outside should've already figured it out.

The lantern monster chuckled, "No problem. I'll deal with these two first, then come save you."

Before he finished speaking,

he charged straight at Luo En.

This monster's strength was immense.

Each step he took cracked the earth.

Suddenly, terrifying flames erupted from his body.

The flames engulfed Luo En in an instant.

Luo En gazed at the flame, long as a dragon, and smiled faintly.

Though the flame's power was great,

it still couldn't reach him yet.

But Yunzhong Zhihe's face turned pale.

He could sense the lantern monster's power had reached Ghost Summit.

"Strange, why are all these monsters so strong lately?"

"Last time I encountered a Ghost Mid-level monster."

"Now I'm facing a Ghost Summit."

Yunzhong Zhihe's expression was grim.

Though he was an A-rank hero,

facing a Ghost Summit-level monster

still left him severely strained.

To handle a Ghost Summit-level monster, at least one S-rank hero must be present.

Moreover, this monster was extremely bizarre.

It looked like a giant lantern.

And its weapon was flame.

The lantern monster let out a grotesque laugh.

His body suddenly exploded.

A surging sea of fire instantly engulfed the surroundings.

Luo En and Yunzhong Zhihe were right at the center of the flames.

The flames possessed immense explosive force.

Everything around was destroyed in an instant.

The entire world seemed swallowed by fire.

Suddenly, the fire surged inward, forming a pillar of flame.

The pillar's glow grew brighter and brighter.

The temperature it emitted rose higher and higher.

Yunzhong Zhihe could barely hold on.

He felt as if every inch of his body was being burned.

Every pore was filled with searing heat.

His breathing grew difficult.

The scorching gases entered his lungs.

They nearly cooked him alive.

He thought: if he stayed here any longer, he might lose his life.

He drew a long staff from his waist and spun it rapidly.

The staff formed a screen-like barrier.

Keep these terrifying temperatures outside.

As the long rod whirled, a tidal wave suddenly appeared.

Accompanied by the long rod flying like a coiling dragon.

Push back this sea of fire.

"Leave now, while you can."

The Cloudborne Paper Crane shouted at Luo En.

Luo En instantly grabbed Xiao Yi and the bat monster beside him.

He kicked off with his legs and leapt out of the sea of fire like a cannonball.

The bat monster had thought that, with the sea of fire as cover,

he could cling to life for a while.

Then wait for the lantern monster to come rescue him.

But he never expected Luo En would take him along when fleeing.

This guy insisted on dragging me with him.

The bat monster glared fiercely at Luo En.

But at this moment, Luo En was fully focused on the situation of the sea of fire.

He paid no attention to the bat monster's gaze.

The Cloudborne Paper Crane swiftly whirled the long rod.

Like a dragon emerging into the world, using the barrier formed by the long rod, he finally escaped the sea of fire.

But multiple parts of his body were already charred.

Smoke curled from every part of him, making him look extremely disheveled.

"This lantern monster is truly formidable."

The Cloudborne Paper Crane chuckled bitterly.

"But I'll make him taste one of my rods."

Before the words were even out, he charged back into the sea of fire with his long rod.

The long rod churned through the sea of fire.

The Cloudborne Paper Crane surged and darted within it.

No wonder he's an A-rank hero.

His strength is extremely powerful.

In an instant, he forced back more than half of the sea of fire.

And at this moment, the Cloudborne Paper Crane finally locked onto the lantern monster's position.
