In less than ten minutes after Lin Huang left, two silhouettes arrived at the battlefield where Lin Huang and the skinless monster were fighting at almost the same time.
It was an old man and a skinny man.
The old man was only about 1.6 meters tall and had grizzled hair. However, his eyes were bright and full of expression as he carefully observed his surroundings.
The skinny man was about 1.8 meters tall and he looked like he was in his thirties. He had a long face that did not look good and he looked gloomy. His gloomy expression did not mean that he disliked anyone. It was just that he was born that way.
"Isn't your disciple with you?"
"He's at the back. The energy wave from the battle disappeared just now. I thought he was a burden, so I came first. "The old man did not even turn his head as he looked around.
It was obvious that the both of them were familiar with each other. There was no need for them to be polite when they talked.
"I knew it. That guy has just leveled up to imperial-level. He likes to join in the fun," the skinny man said casually.
"He thinks that he can go anywhere in this land as soon as he leveled up to imperial-level. He'll suffer sooner or later, "the old man said unhappily. The old man said a few words in dissatisfaction before changing the topic. "Let's not talk about him. What do you think of this battlefield?"
"We didn't find any dead bodies. Apart from the battle traces, there were only two piles of flesh. We can't tell what the two piles of flesh are at the moment. We'll only know after the forensic examination. However, from the battle traces and the remaining energy, it's similar to what we sensed when we were on the way here. There were five people who participated in the battle. Two of them were extremely powerful. Their final attack was comparable to a purple gold-rank. The other three should be fighting two against one. Their abilities are slightly weaker … "
"Yes, what you said is similar to what I've observed. When the energy wave stopped, the defense system's alarm was automatically deactivated. The final outcome of the battle should be that the monster was killed by the sniper and the carcass was taken away. "The old man nodded.
"We can't rule out the possibility that the monster went into hibernation again after the sniper was killed. Since the monster managed to sneak in, it means that it has the ability to fool the defense system. It's possible that it could do it again. "
"That's possible, but the probability is low. I'm more inclined to believe that the monster was killed. If it's what you said, it's not difficult to find out more about it. Let's see if anyone with a combat strength of yellow gold-rank or purple gold-rank has gone missing. "
As the both of them were chatting, the imperial-level powerhouses arrived one after another.
After the alarm was lifted, there was actually no need for everyone to rush over. However, almost everyone still chose to come over. They all wanted to see the battle between the Purple Gold rank powerhouses.
Some people thought that the person who hunted the monster might not have left, so it would be good to get to know him.
While everyone was still searching for clues, Lin Huang had already returned to his hotel room.
After recalling Charcoal back into its card form, he got Kelly to release Yi Zheng from the mini world.
When Yi Zheng came out, he saw Lin Huang who was covered in blood.
"Are you okay?"
"I'm fine." Lin Huang smiled and shook his head.
He suffered some injuries, but with his Divine Regeneration ability, he quickly recovered. Only bloodstains remained on his clothes.
"Where's the imperial-level? They wouldn't chase him all the way here, would they? He knows that we're staying here. "Yi Zheng thought that Lin Huang had escaped from the imperial-level, so he felt that the hotel was not safe enough.
"Don't worry, he's dead."
"Dead?" Yi Zheng was stunned and looked at Lin Huang in disbelief.
"Yes. He's really powerful. I almost used all my trump cards to kill him, "Lin Huang said simply and did not plan to explain further. He did not even plan to tell Yi Zheng that the imperial-level was not a human but a gold-rank monster. It was not that he wanted to hide his ability, but it would take too much effort to explain.
Upon hearing this, Yi Zheng knew that he shouldn't ask any further. After all, it involved Lin Huang's trump cards. Even if they were friends who trusted each other, there was no need for them to know.
Thinking about the independent space that Kelly had brought him to, he gave up on the idea of asking.
"Are you sure you're alright?"
However, he was still worried about Lin Huang's condition. The bloodstains on his body did not seem to be caused by an ordinary flesh wound. Lin Huang must have gotten himself injured trying to save him.
"Take a look yourself."
Seeing how worried Yi Zheng was, Lin Huang sighed and took off his shirt, revealing his naked upper body. There wasn't a single scar on his streamlined muscles.
"I have a regeneration secret skill. As long as I have enough Life Power, I can recover no matter how serious the injury is."
"Don't worry about your combat strength being sealed. The person who sealed you is dead. In less than an hour, the seal in your body will be completely broken and your combat strength will be fully recovered. There's an underground auction tomorrow night. Go back to your room and have a good rest. "
After sending Yi Zheng off, Lin Huang burned his bloodstained clothes and took a shower to wash off the bloodstains on his body.
While soaking in the bathtub, he took out two palm-sized God Figurines.
One of them was a feline with a grimace skull on its head. It had a slender body and leopard fur all over its body. It looked like a specimen made from a small animal's carcass.
The other one was a snake-headed hoofed monster with black scales all over its body. It looked like a sculpture made of black metal.
Lin Huang had never seen these two monsters in the monster guide.
Lin Huang could elevate to immortal-level rank-3 after refining the two God Figurines. However, he knew that it was not the right time yet.
Firstly, it was difficult for him to explain to Yi Zheng how he could elevate his combat strength by two ranks in a day.
Secondly, he knew that the Wanbao Auction had been paying attention to his current identity. The elevation of his combat strength might bring unnecessary trouble to him.
After recalling the two God Figurines, he sank into the water slowly. He closed his eyes and began recalling the battle earlier.
It was Lin Huang's homework every time.
Each time he fought, he would recall the entire battle process in his head. He would dissect and analyze all the details of the battle. One was to find out what he had done wrong so that he would not make the same mistake again. The other was to analyze his opponent's strength to see if there was anything that he could learn. Besides that, he would look at the entire incident from an angle other than the battle to see if there was a better solution.
The images kept popping up in his head …
From Yi Zheng being kidnapped to saving him, to the intense battle with the imperial-level, to the monster revealing its true form, summoning the God Figurine's Combat Souls, and finally summoning the Life Palace.
Each of the scenes was replayed in his head quickly. All the details were shown one after another and replayed repeatedly.
"In reality, I had the chance to kill him when he revealed his true form before summoning the God Figurine's Combat Souls and the Life Palace. I had the chance to kill him before he summoned his Life Palace. Unfortunately, the two chances were gone in a blink of an eye. I missed them both …
"The Dragon Flame skill that I used with Charcoal was great. The effect was great too. I managed to kill five of his Combat Souls at once.
"Nobody can withstand a demigod relic's attack with their body. Even a demigod can't do that. His substitute was able to withstand my attack with its body because of the combination of the substitute and the demigod armor relic. Such a secret skill should be a derivative of the Substitute Skill. Fortunately, I managed to figure out the secret of the skill in time. I knew that the demigod armor relic wasn't with him but with the substitute. In the end, I made the right decision and killed him with the clone.
"Now that I think about it, it was indeed too risky to make that decision. If I made the wrong decision and he was wearing a demigod armor relic, not only would the attack fail to kill him, but it would also destroy the dimensional portal. It would be equivalent to sending myself to a dead end. After all, the increase in combat strength would only last for three seconds … "
Before he was done analyzing, a couple of images flashed through Lin Huang's head all of a sudden. He opened his eyes and sat up in the bathtub.
