What did a boss want after painstakingly making an appearance, displaying its majesty and uttering its lines?
Of course, it wanted an earth-shattering battle. It would be best if the sky fell and the earth cracked, the mountains and rivers collapsed, and it would not stop until one side was dead.
However … Glace only had the lines of a boss, but she did not have the aura of a boss.
As for her current situation, it was even worse than that of a boss.
"Boom!!"
The cliff collapsed. Glace flew out from it and fell heavily to the ground. She rolled on the ground several times before she stopped. Her face was pale and her clothes were ragged. She looked like a passerby being chased by a monster at the beginning of a movie.
"What's wrong? Weren't you shouting very loudly just now? Let's continue! "
Fangzheng strode out from under the collapsed cliff. He held the shield axe tightly in his right hand. First Flame surged up, making him look like the Terminator who had been reborn from the ashes and was chasing down an unarmed passerby.
"Ugh …!"
Hearing Fangzheng's voice, Glace insisted on standing up. But just as she raised her fan, she saw Fangzheng make a gesture. Then, dozens of magic missiles appeared out of thin air and whistled towards her.
Extreme Magic Missile Storm!
"Whirlwind Zero Form, Counterforce Moonflower!!"
Faced with the magic missiles whistling towards her, Glace gritted her teeth and raised the fan in her hand. The movement of her hand sped up several times in an instant. Waves of light shot out to meet the magic missiles. But Fangzheng just sneered and snapped his fingers again.
"Boom!!"
At that moment, the sky began to turn gloomy. Thunder roared and thick dark clouds rolled and gathered, then turned into a huge fist that smashed towards Glace's head!
Extreme Wrath Punch!
"Ahhh —!!"
This time, Glace finally failed to defend against Fangzheng's attack. She screamed and was sent flying backwards, then fell heavily to the ground. But although Glace looked to be in a sorry state, Fangzheng could see that Glace's HP had only dropped by a third.
How strange.
Although the HP bar was only a reference, in the real world, there was no such thing as having to reset the HP bar to kill someone. However, Glace's situation was obviously abnormal. She had just taken a blow from Fangzheng's axe and was hit by several consecutive evocation spells, especially the Ultimate Wrath Punch, which was a level-9 evocation spell. Even if she didn't die from it, she would be crippled. However, it only took away a small portion of Glace's HP.
Of course, it wouldn't matter if the opponent was a Boss, but the problem was that Glace's current performance didn't match her HP. To put it bluntly, if the others were small fries in front of Fangzheng, then Glace was also an elite small fries. Although she was an elite, she was still a small fries.
But her HP … Why did it feel like a mid-late stage Boss?
This was very illogical.
Since the strategy was strange, he decided to look at the strategy guide.
Thinking of this, Fangzheng stretched out his hand.
"Order of Omniscience!"
Soon, the pitch-black Book of Omniscience appeared in Fangzheng's hand. He quickly flipped it open. Then, an introduction about Glace appeared on the originally empty page.
"I see."
Seeing this, Fangzheng raised his eyebrows, then looked with interest at Glace, who was struggling to get up with her face covered in dirt.
"So you're not a human. No wonder I was wondering why you're so durable."
"— — — — —!"
Hearing Fangzheng's words, Glace's expression suddenly changed.
That's right. According to the records in "Order of Omniscience", Glace belonged to a race called Soul People. The characteristic of this race was that there was no distinction between life force and magic power. For them, life force was magic power, and magic power was life force.
To put it bluntly, they had no HP, only MP. Therefore, Soul People did not have any level restrictions, but the more MP they had, the stronger they were.
That was why what Fangzheng saw before was not a HP bar, but a MP bar.
No wonder it took so much effort to fight her. To put it bluntly, she was a condensation of magic power, so her resistance to magic power was naturally high.
But now that he knew how to fight her, the next step was much simpler.
Fangzheng stretched out his hand and quickly waved it in the air. Soon, a bright and dazzling ball of light appeared and surrounded Glace.
"W-what's this?"
Glace's expression changed drastically when she saw the silver ball of light spinning around her. She hurriedly raised the fan in her hand and wanted to do something, but the next moment, her body suddenly went limp and she collapsed to the ground.
"How could this be? My power? "
"Haha …"
At this moment, Fangzheng could clearly see that Glace's HP (or MP) was rapidly decreasing, and she had obviously fallen into a panic.
That's right, this was the defensive level-9 spell released by Fangzheng — — Radiant Extraction!
This spell could create several silver-white balls of light and guide them to absorb the spells or magic power cast by the target. For others, this might simply be absorbing MP. But for the Soul Race, where MP equals HP, this was simply asking for their lives!
"Counterforce Moonflower!"
"It's useless."
The attack released by Glace did not have any effect at all. On the contrary, the flying blades of light disappeared into the air almost instantly.
"How, how can this be?!"
Glace paled at the sight of this. She had never imagined that her attack would be completely nullified by her opponent.
"It'll be much easier to fight once I figure out your race."
Fangzheng put down his left hand, raised his shield and axe, and walked over.
That's right, Glace was a Soul, a race that lived on MP. This meant that all the skills she released were magic.
So as long as he cast a magic nullification boundary, this woman would be useless.
"Looks like you're not from this world. Let me ask you, why did you attack me?"
"Ugh …."
Glace, whose magic power was being absorbed by the silver-white balls of light, could no longer stand steadily. She slumped to the ground, gritted her teeth, and glared at Fangzheng.
"If I don't kill you, our world will perish! To protect our world, you must die! "
"So, in other words, your world also has a Tide?"
"That's right … Everyone in that world is desperately resisting the Tide …."
As she spoke, Glace staggered to her feet and clenched the fan in her hand again.
"I'm also a dependent that protects an important world from the Tide, the Hero of the Fan! I will definitely not fall here. This battle will not end before one of us dies! "
"If that's the case."
Fangzheng had already walked up to Glace. He raised the shield and axe in his hand.
"Then, go to hell."
With that, Fangzheng swung the shield and axe down at Glace, and changed its path midway.
* Clang!! *
A pitch-black scythe suddenly appeared in front of Fangzheng. Fangzheng pricked up his brows, and the shield axe in his hand chopped down without any change in momentum. Accompanied by the sound of a violent collision, a figure flew back with a scream and fell to the ground. Glace shrieked when she saw that person.
"Larku!?"
"Ouch …. Ouch, ouch, ouch …."
The person on the ground was a man with short red hair and an adventurer's costume. He was holding a pitch-black scythe in his hand and was standing up from the ground. Upon hearing Glace's cry, the man named Larku revealed a bitter smile.
"Really, Sister Glace, what the hell are you doing? You came to another world to challenge the Four Holy Heroes. Aren't you looking for death?"
"But if we don't eliminate the Four Holy Heroes as soon as possible, our world will …. Ugh …."
But before Glace could finish her words, she collapsed to the ground again. Obviously, she didn't have much MP left at this moment.
"Glace!"
Upon seeing this, the expression of the man named Larku changed slightly. Then, he looked at Fangzheng.
"It's not nice to say this, but can you let me take her away?"
"According to her, you're also a hero from another world?"
"That's right. She and I are dependents from the same world, the Hero of the Scythe."
As he spoke, Larku raised the scythe in his hand.
"I'm sorry, but Sister Glace is an important companion of ours. I must take her back!"
"Then let's see if you have the ability to do so!"
Fangzheng swung his shield and axe again.
"You come and go as you please? What do you think this place is? Since you're here, don't leave! Prepare to die! "
Following Fangzheng's cold snort, golden vortexes of light appeared in the sky behind him. Countless weapons emerged from them and aimed at the man in front of him.
The next moment, a rain of swords rained down.
"Oh no!"
Looking at this scene, Larku's expression changed drastically. He hurriedly swung his scythe and rushed toward Glace. At the same time, countless sharp blades flew down and stabbed at the red-haired man in front of him.
"Haaaahhhhh!!"
Facing the flying blades, Larku spun his scythe and deflected them. But he had no intention of stopping. Instead, he continued to rush toward Glace, who was trapped in the radiance refinement.
However, Fangzheng would not let him succeed so easily!
"Go to hell!"
Facing the Hero of the Sickle who was charging at him, Fangzheng mercilessly brandished his Shield Axe again and slashed forward. The Hero of the Scythe brandished his giant scythe and charged forward. At the same time, he shouted.
"Tilly!"
Just as Larku shouted, a woman with long blue hair tied into a braid appeared from the side. She raised her hand and aimed it at Fangzheng. The wristband on her wrist shone with a colorful brilliance.
"Power of gems everywhere, respond to my request. Show yourself!"
Invisible magical power instantly condensed and turned into scorching flames that rushed toward Fangzheng. However, facing this sudden attack from behind, Fangzheng didn't even turn his head. His movements didn't stop at all. He continued to swing his axe and deflected the scythe of the Hero of the Scythe. Then, he clenched his left hand into a fist and punched the abdomen of the Hero of the Scythe.
"Argh! “
Along with a scream, the Hero of the Scythe flew backward again. At the same time, the scorching flames hit Fangzheng's back.
But at that moment, a magical radiance suddenly flashed on Fangzheng's body. Then, an emerald brilliance suddenly erupted and sprayed out in a fan shape. It was like a gale that directly extinguished the flame magic released by the blue-haired woman and wrapped her in it.
"Crack! “
The moment she was enveloped by the emerald brilliance, the outfit on the blue-haired woman's body and the wristband she wore immediately shattered and disappeared. The blue-haired woman screamed and hurriedly hugged her body and squatted on the ground.
"Tilly! “
Seeing this, the Hero of the Scythe tried to get up again. But before he could do anything, chains that appeared out of thin air immediately bound the three of them tightly.
Holding the chains in his hand, Fangzheng looked at the three of them with an indifferent expression.
"From now on, you are my captives."
