Chapter 323: The Three Beasts with Different Attitudes
Hearing Li Ang's words, Merlin showed a smile that was awkward but polite: "... our joke is quite good, Your Excellency."
Everyone was still in a hostile state; how could they start discussing recruitment matters? Besides, he still had some professional ethics.
"I am not joking."
Li Ang appeared very serious. He felt that hanging out with him had much more of a future than hanging out with the Counter Force; after all, describing the Counter Force as short-sighted was an insult to the idiom.
Unfortunately, he wasn't a protagonist of a cultivation novel; he couldn't just shake his body and make the opposing Heroic Spirits bow down, especially when there were five Grand Servants and three Beasts.
Hearing this, Merlin didn't say anything more. They had accepted a commission from the Counter Force this time, so no matter what, they had to continue executing it.
Of course, if they were forcibly converted by the opponent later, that couldn't be helped, right?
With the delay caused by the group of Servants, Nemo had long since driven the Nautilus to escape.
Li Ang didn't care about this; after all, what was truly important wasn't Chaldea, but the Counter Force that had been pulling strings behind the scenes.
Even without Chaldea, They might have come up with something else to complete the 【Pruning】.
Fortunately, he already had a rough idea of how to let this world escape the fate of 【Pruning】, and by then, the Counter Force shouldn't be able to stir up any trouble.
The reason he brought Arthur and the others here today was just to collect experimental data and see if he could capture a few more Grand Heroic Spirits.
It was just that he didn't expect that after not seeing them for a while, Chaldea would come up with new tricks.
Thinking of this, Li Ang looked at the group of Chaldea Servants not far away.
'Beasts, huh.'
His gaze flickered; the evils of humanity born from civilization were indeed excellent experimental subjects.
The only pity was that only Draco could be counted as a complete Beast on the opposite side, while Kiara Sessyoin and Tiamat could only be counted as a small part of their main bodies.
Just as Li Ang was thinking this, Draco moved.
As the crimson magic sword burned with raging flames, seven giant red dragons manifested behind this Beast of 666.
【Seven-Headed Beast Crown】.
Seven-colored radiance flickered on the pitch-black armor, and Draco's momentum began to climb steadily.
The Beastly aura from the enemy of humanity made the four Grand Heroic Spirits other than Merlin frown slightly; this was discomfort brought about by their very essence.
Perhaps they hadn't expected that as Heroic Spirits protecting human history, they would one day join forces with such an existence.
The next moment, amidst the roar of the red dragons, Draco flashed in front of Li Ang, wielding her magic sword.
The scarlet sword light swept across the sky, staining it with an ominous color.
Just a probing strike already far exceeded the combat power displayed by ordinary Heroic Spirits.
Violent winds overflowed, scattering the surrounding clouds.
Draco looked at the pitch-black shield blocking her sword edge, her expression unchanged.
As the Beast of Revelation, she had sensed something even more malicious beneath Li Ang's gentle facade back when she first saw him.
That was a monster capable of destroying a planet.
During their brief exchange, this trait became increasingly obvious in her eyes.
Thinking of this, the tall woman in pitch-black armor said coldly: "You truly surprise me."
As her voice fell, she took the initiative to end the stalemate and retreated.
This, of course, wasn't Draco being cowardly, but...
The seven giant red dragons symbolizing the end of the world surrounded Li Ang, then spat out seven brilliant breaths.
BOOM—!
The terrifying energy annihilated everything in the vicinity in the blink of an eye, yet the group of Servants belonging to Chaldea showed no joy on their faces.
After all, if the enemy this time were so easily eliminated, they wouldn't have been in such a sorry state earlier.
And just as they expected, Li Ang was unscathed in the face of Draco's attack.
A pitch-black sphere wrapped him entirely; the Truth-Seeking Balls, which were already incredibly hard, had their defensive power raised to an outrageous level after being reinforced by the Primordial Runes.
Then, under everyone's gaze, a grayish-white bone spike shot toward Draco at extreme speed.
Draco's pupils, which looked like molten lava, suddenly constricted; she felt an extremely dangerous aura from this bone spike.
Without the slightest hesitation, she immediately swung the magic sword in her hand, and a scarlet sword glow burst forth.
However, to her shock, the sword light she swung collapsed at the first touch of the grayish-white bone spike.
"What!?"
Caught off guard, Draco barely moved her body to avoid the vital parts.
As the grayish-white bone spike grazed her left arm, a deathly aura instantly lingered around the wound.
At this moment, this Beast of 666 finally realized the essence of that grayish-white bone spike.
Instant Death.
Fortunately, as a Beast, she naturally possessed resistance to Instant Death.
But even so, Draco still felt her left arm gradually losing its proper function.
At this time, Li Ang's voice, filled with a hint of helplessness, rang out: "The speed is still too slow..."
All-Killing Ash Bones were indeed strong; the only drawback was that the speed was too slow, making it difficult to be effective in normal combat.
Even though he had launched a sneak attack just now, it still allowed Draco to avoid the vital parts.
Seeing their own side fall into a disadvantage, the several Grand Heroic Spirits could no longer hold back and immediately prepared to support the other, despite the awkwardness in their hearts.
"Sorry, everyone, you'll have to defeat me first."
