The little girl was very close to Angor, and her attack was as fast as lightning. Even though Angor's reaction speed was greatly improved, it was still not easy for him to dodge the sneak attack at such a close distance.
The inhuman hand was about to touch Angor.
Clang! A crisp sound was heard.
A dark red chain wrapped around the strange hand's wrist, causing sparks to fly out from the friction.
It was Bobota. However, his power had been reduced to the level of a beginner apprentice, and he was only able to block the chain for a split second before the chain rebounded and sent him flying back. He landed heavily on the ground ten meters away.
However, Bobota managed to buy Angor enough time to react.
Not only did Angor successfully evade the sneak attack, but he also took the chance to launch a counterattack.
The little girl was sent flying and crashed into a tree nearby. The tree snapped in half, and the girl slowly slid down and sat on the ground.
"Are you alright?" Angor quickly moved to Bobota's side.
Bobota's cloak was lifted, revealing his bony face and pale skin.
"I'm fine," Bobota whispered.
Angor used Detect Injury to check Bobota's condition. After making sure Bobota was fine, Angor looked at the culprit in the distance. At this moment, her mutated monstrous hand had turned back into a frail and pale person. She sat paralyzed on the ground, looking somewhat miserable.
However, that bone-chilling laughter still came from under her hair.
Angor could not see the girl's face because of her messy hair.
However, that horrifying laughter and the strange hand that had suddenly appeared cast a veil of terror over her body.
Angor looked at her carefully. The little girl was no longer as timid as when she was surrounded by other apprentices. Instead, she looked very strange.
Who was this person? And that strange hand … Was it a transplant? Or was it her original face?
Angor's eyes narrowed.
Level 2 cantrip, Dispel Illusion!
"A human?" Angor frowned. After using Dispel Illusion, he confirmed that the little girl's aura was completely human. There was nothing else unusual about her. However, the changes from before couldn't have been an illusion.
Angor looked into the distance. The apprentices had run away, but some of them did not go far. They were still sneaking glances at him. Angor noticed that when they saw the little girl's transformation, their eyes were filled with surprise and even fear, which was completely different from before.
It was very difficult to fake one's eyes. Did this mean that when they were facing this little girl, she did not show such a change?
As he wondered, the girl on the ground moved. She slowly lifted her head, which caused the black hair covering her face to fall to the sides, revealing a plain, white face.
Suddenly, the corners of her mouth curled up, and the sides of her mouth began to split open.
The corners of her mouth had split open all the way to her ears. One could clearly see the sharp fangs in her mouth, as well as the mangled flesh!
Not only did her face change, but her neck also began to elongate slowly. However, her skin did not seem to be able to adapt to the elongated neck, causing the skin on her neck to split open, revealing the flesh and bones inside.
White Bone extended its barbs and slithered toward Angor like a snake.
Instead of retreating, Angor moved forward and began to fight.
Angor's plan was to get rid of her body first. However, the girl's head was like a wriggling snake that kept interfering with him.
Also, he noticed that every time they made contact, he could feel a terrifying force coming from the man's body.
He did not even feel it from Zafarah.
This little girl's body was much stronger than Zafarah's!
Besides, the "snake-like" neck did not slow her down. Instead, it made her more agile and allowed her to use many unexpected tricks.
Angor was careless and got entangled by the girl. Her neck was like a white ribbon that wrapped around his waist and abdomen. He felt like he was going to be strangled if he exerted any force.
He only managed to escape by using the green runes of Forcefield.
He jumped back and landed several meters away.
"Mister, let me help you?" Gregory suddenly came to Angor's side with an eager look.
"Not now."
Angor slowly stepped forward. His aura grew stronger with each step, and the blond hair covering his right eye was lifted by the wind.
Angor began to channel his nightmare aura into his right eye.
He always wanted to use his right eye in a fight, and this was his chance.
However, just as her right eye began to flash with a faint brilliance, the little girl seemed to have felt something. An intuition of danger made her suddenly stand up and take a few steps back.
At the same time, a thunderous noise echoed in the sky.
Angor was surprised when he saw the girl's body elongating. Her legs turned into long bone tails, which made her look like a centipede with a thousand legs.
The centipede's appearance was beyond Angor's imagination.
While Angor was still in shock, the girl quickly dived into the ground.
Angor quickly raised his guard to prevent the girl from coming out and attacking him.
But to his surprise, the girl did not move toward him. Instead, she moved to a spot about ten meters away from him, which was filled with the aura of death.
The ground suddenly loosened, and the hideous girl crawled out of the ground and bit at the silent Zafarah.
Her small mouth instantly turned into a bloody maw and swallowed Zafarah whole. Then she dived into the ground without hesitation. The ground shook, the centipede moved, and many trees were toppled. Finally, she disappeared into the distance.
After a while, Gregory turned to Angor and said, "Mister, she … she left."
"I saw her."
Angor was puzzled. The girl suddenly attacked him, gave up, ate Zafarah, and ran away. What did that mean?
Angor did not understand.
But he was here to deal with Zafarah. Now that Zafarah was in the hands of that horrible monster, he would not have a good ending.
As for the little girl, she was full of mysteries. Angor did not want to cause trouble, but since she attacked him first, he had to be careful.
At least he needed to know where she came from.
Angor stomped on the ground and dashed a kilometer away.
On the ground, a dozen apprentices were trying to run away. They all panicked when Angor landed in front of them.
"I don't have any grudges against you. Don't worry, I just have a few questions that I need you to answer for me. "
Angor's voice was calm. After witnessing his strength, the apprentices knew that even if they worked together, they would not stand a chance. After looking at each other, they finally calmed down.
"M-Mister, what do you want to say?" It was the only female apprentice who stepped forward. She tried to keep a calm face, but the corners of her eyes seemed to be twitching because of the effort.
"You saw what happened just now. I want to know, the little girl you were chasing. Who is she? "
The female Apprentice thought for a moment before explaining: "We also do not know her origins. We met her in the Thorns Ridge …"
Angor took a moment to get some information about the little girl. They met her at Thorns Ridge.
Thorns Ridge was located in the southeast, not far from the Frigid Ruins. It got its name because it was full of black thorns.
These apprentices volunteered to stay in the Abyss Stronghold City to look for opportunities and breakthroughs. They set off from Black Rock City and wandered around the Abyss Stronghold for half a year.
Half a month ago, they met the little girl at Thorns Ridge. At that time, she was in the center of Thorns Ridge, bound by countless black thorns. Her blood was almost sucked dry, and she looked very weak.
Whatever the reason, they saved the little girl and brought her all the way to the Frigid Ruins.
According to the little girl herself, her name was Izu.
Izu admitted that she had forgotten a lot of things. She only remembered her name. Due to her young age and the fact that she was a potential Bloodline Acolyte, everyone took good care of her.
Originally, everything had been fine. However, just one day ago, an unforeseen event had occurred.
For some reason, they had all fallen asleep last night. When they woke up, all the resources they had on them had disappeared. And the little girl, Izu, disappeared along with them.
At first, they didn't suspect that Izu stole them until someone found traces of Izu outside. They also saw their space capsule on her waist, which led to a series of events.
"Izu lost her memory", "She used to be a nice girl", "She changed for some reason", and "I don't know what happened to her."
It could be seen that they originally had a good impression of Yi Su. They were all shocked when they saw Izu's change.
"Is there anything else you want to add?" Angor looked around. Everyone shook their heads. Angor's gaze finally landed on an apprentice wearing a green robe with tree patterns.
It was the only apprentice from Gravity Forest here.
His forehead was sweating, his face was pale, and his eyes were avoiding Angor's gaze.
"What about you? Do you have anything to add? "Angor approached the apprentice and asked.
The apprentice shook his head. "I-I don't know. I don't know anything."
The female apprentice who spoke to Angor first spoke up. "Mister, he joined our team a few days ago. He didn't know much about Izu."
Angor nodded. "It's fine if you don't know anything about Izu. You can talk about something else. Like Zafarah? "
