Chapter 127 The Sad One-Eye
Chapter 127 The Sad One-Eye
It was spectacular to see a group of mages, under the leadership of Atlantis, launching unified attack magic. Quantitative change can also lead to qualitative change. Wind blades, fireballs, water balls, ground spikes and various energy attacks broke out at the same time, like an energy rain, but this rain was not gentle at all. It swept in like a storm and could not be resisted at all. Seeing this, Tiffany realized how terrifying Xingluo was. Training the loosely disciplined mercenary group like an army was such a right step.
The one-eyed man's eyes were bloodshot as he watched helplessly as these brothers who had been through thick and thin with him died tragically at the hands of a bunch of low-level wizards. However, every time he tried to rush out to rescue them, he was beaten back by Xingluo's terrifying magic.
The only remaining eye was full of bloodshot, and it stared at Xingluo with red eyes, wishing to eat him alive. Soon the battle was over, and with the joint efforts of the Red Bearded Dwarf and the Sky City Mercenaries, this dirty attempt to steal Xingluo's "private property" was unsurprisingly thwarted.
Xingluo was somewhat wary of Duyan. After all, he was an Earth Knight. If they really let him charge into the crowd, although they could win, they would also suffer heavy losses. So Xingluo kept an eye on him all the time, and as soon as he made a move, he would use several space magics to block his movements.
Looking at the corpses lying all over the place, Xingluo walked leisurely to the opposite side of the one-eyed man and stood still, less than 15 meters away from him. This distance made him eager to make a move. With a flash in his eyes, he secretly urged his fighting spirit. Tiffany screamed and covered her mouth. She didn't expect that Xingluo would give up the distance advantage of the mage and take the lead in closing the distance with the opponent. Atlantis also frowned slightly, wondering what Xingluo was going to do.
"Why do you want to attack these dwarves? Who gave you the courage to attack them? You should know that if even one dwarf escapes, you will face the revenge of the entire dwarf race."
The one-eyed man frowned slightly and suppressed the urge to attack. "Who are you and why did you save these dwarves?"
Xingluo ignored him and continued, "These dwarves are my people. If you touch them, you are touching me. I won't bully you. I'll give you a chance. Let's fight. If you win, you can leave. We will never stop you. If you lose, tell me why you attacked the dwarves and what happened..."
The one-eyed man's expression moved slightly as he looked at the young man so close to him. He sensed again and again that he was indeed at the level of a great magician. He estimated the distance and felt relieved. As long as the opponent did not rush at him, he was still confident of winning. After all, his experience of life and death was definitely better than that of this young boy.
"How can I believe that you are telling the truth, and won't go back on your word and rush in after losing?"
Seeing that the other party finally gave in, Xingluo secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "This is easy. Let's swear an oath with a magic contract." After saying that, he pulled out a scroll from the space ring. The scroll exuded a faint golden color, and waves of pressure emanated from the scroll. It was obviously of a high level. One-Eye naturally recognized this scroll. It was a contract scroll commonly used on the continent. It had extremely strong binding force. Unless those rare old men, no one could break the oath and get away with it unscathed.
Seeing that the opponent was still willing to challenge him despite having such an advantage, he sneered inwardly. He was indeed still a child, ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth. He also didn't know which family he was from. He had such great talent but his brain was not very good.
One-Eye nodded slightly, and didn't say much. There was no need to hesitate about such a thing. He and Xingluo swore at the same time, as if an invisible chain was wrapped around their souls, causing Xingluo to frown slightly. Fortunately, the discomfort disappeared in an instant.
Xingluo glanced at the one-eyed man with a playful look on his face and said expressionlessly, "Okay, let's get started."
As soon as Xingluo finished speaking, Duyan raised his fighting spirit to the extreme. This was a battle that concerned his life, he dared not be careless. The dark green fighting spirit waves enveloped his body, and a sword was infused with fighting spirit, emitting a faint green light, and rushed towards Xingluo. A sonic boom exploded from the place where his sword passed.
Tiffany clenched her fists in worry, wishing she could rush forward immediately. Alvin and Attis also looked worried.
Xingluo glanced at the other party indifferently, and terrifying magic fluctuations began to surge. When the other party's sword chopped over, many girls around exclaimed. Seeing Xingluo being hit by the sword, and Xingluo seemed to have no time to dodge, even the one-eyed man curled up a sneer at the corner of his mouth.
But then the One-Eye frowned slightly, and the knife fell without any hindrance. The knife only hit the shadow of Xingluo who was still in place. At this time, a violent magic wave appeared behind him. He turned around hurriedly and swung the knife out first. With a loud "bang", blood spurted out of the One-Eye's mouth, and his body flew sideways until he hit a tree, then stopped.
Seeing this, the people around him relaxed slightly. After all, the other party was an Earth Knight, of the same level as Xingluo. Atlantis stared at Xingluo and thought to himself, "As expected, he is the rarest space magician, invincible at the same level."
Xingluo walked towards the One-Eye Man leisurely. The other party lowered his head and his expression could not be seen clearly. He was breathing heavily. Xingluo was about to speak when a Dou Qi slash burst out from bottom to top. The One-Eye Man, who was panting just now, had already rushed over and flew towards Xingluo with the Dou Qi blade.
Xingluo frowned slightly, this guy was indeed cunning. He had held back because he wanted him to tell the whole story. He didn't expect that this guy was so tricky. He was much stronger than those kids in the academy. Just these few unhesitating killing moves were enough for those kids to suffer. Fortunately, he had fought with many cunning monsters and walked between life and death several times. Otherwise, it would not be worth it to die in frustration without being able to use his skills.
Xingluo's space shield blocked the opponent's Dou Qi blade, and then the air cannon sprayed out, and Duyan was hit directly. He felt as if his whole body was hit by a big stick. The Dou Qi armor was shattered, and the Dou Qi wall was also broken. He groaned and hit the tree again. This time the sound was much louder than the last time. Many leaves were shaken off and he spat out a mouthful of blood. After a long time, just when Xingluo was about to make up for it, Duyan spat out a mouthful of blood with broken internal organs, "I lost."
Xingluo took a look at the other party's condition and said, "In that case, let's fulfill the contract." At this moment, a strong magical wave came, and the one-eyed man had to tell the whole story obediently. Apart from that, he couldn't even commit suicide. This was exactly the effect Xingluo wanted. The reason why he was so close to the other party before was to give the one-eyed man a chance of winning. Only in this way could the one-eyed man sign a contract with him with confidence. He was afraid that other forces would target the dwarves, and he didn't want to let others know the whereabouts of these dwarves so early.
The whole incident was revealed to Xingluo under the constraints of the contract, but his voice was a little intermittent, probably because of his serious injuries. It turned out that this guy was a robber in the past, specializing in killing small groups of merchants nearby. Not long ago, one of his men suddenly presented him with a piece of valuable ore, so he became interested in this group of dwarves who exchanged precious ore for some food. Although his men together could defeat this group of dwarves, he was afraid that the Dwarf King would know about this, so he found some helpers to ensure success this time.
Who knew that Xingluo suddenly appeared from nowhere and killed them all. Xingluo asked a few more questions and found out that the other party had come out in full force this time, and in order to keep it secret they did not say where they were going. The other families only knew why they came here when they arrived. In other words, as long as the One-Eye was killed, no one would know about this anymore.
Xingluo was relieved. The reason why he went through so much trouble was to eliminate the trouble forever. Looking at the other party's miserable appearance, he said, "You shouldn't have provoked me."
