The pistol fell to the ground and made a crisp 'click' sound. The two people in the alley remained motionless and fell into a state of confrontation.
However, after just three seconds, the man in shades was the first to break the stalemate. More than a dozen wind blades flew out from behind him and swept forward at a speed of at least 100 meters per second. At the same time, he was also entangled by the wind. He slid a thin sword out of his left sleeve and stabbed at Li Mochen's vital parts silently like a venomous snake.
The latter's figure was like smoke, flashing and teleporting at high speed in the narrow alley that was less than four meters wide.
The two people's speed was similar, but Li Mochen's figure was obviously more agile. He moved up and down, left and right, almost without any leverage. It completely defied the laws of physics, and his movements were always unexpected.
What made the man in shades even colder was that the young man opposite him seemed to have the ability to predict. Often, the moment he made a move, the target would have already made a corresponding dodge in advance.
Just three seconds after the two of them fought, the wind blades that had been slashed out for nearly 40 times finally stopped.
At this moment, the Dragon's Vein, which had been hiding in Li Mochen's hood, suddenly spat out a ball of crimson flames. The man in sunglasses subconsciously raised his sword to block the attack, covering his face.
However, in the next moment, a bright sword light that was so fast that ordinary people's eyes couldn't catch it at all also shuttled through the air. Without giving the man in shades any chance to dodge, it hit his neck.
The seal mageweath on the training sword worked, and it didn't penetrate his throat. However, the man in sunglasses could clearly hear a series of muffled cracking sounds coming from his cervical vertebrae. Then, his entire body was thrown up by the huge impact. He flew all the way to the entrance of the alley 25 meters away before falling heavily to the ground.
The man's eyes were still filled with disbelief. He was actually able to support his body despite his cervical vertebrae being broken. He stared at Li Mochen with resentment and unwillingness for a long time. It wasn't until three seconds later that his head hung down and he breathed his last.
At that moment, Li Mochen wasn't having a good time either. His chest was undulating, and his breathing was extremely heavy, like a broken bellow. What made him even more uncomfortable was the stinging pain coming from his right arm.
He had yet to fully recover from the internal injuries caused by the overload of his sword in the arena a week ago, and now he was repeating the same old mistakes.
But Li Mochen had no other choice. After all, his opponent was a level-eight Shadowman, and was only two steps away from being a Lawless One. Even though he was a peerless Immortal King of the Original Sky Realm, he would not be able to remain relaxed when fighting with such a weak body. Without entering the Tianxin Divine Reflection state, he had no choice but to pay the corresponding price.
However, before Li Mochen could even adjust his aura, his expression changed slightly as he looked at the entrance of the alley. There should have been no one there, but now there were two men in suits and leather shoes.
— Were they the two lawyers from before?
This thought flashed through Li Mochen's mind. He unhesitatingly pulled out the alloy warhammer 3541 from his sword bag and pointed it at the entrance of the alley.
The two of them immediately turned pale and raised their hands high in the air.
"Hey, buddy, don't be so nervous, okay? We have nothing to do with this guy on the ground. We were just passing by. We can testify for you. You were fighting back in self-defense, right? "
Li Mochen's expression was cold, and his eyes were as cold as ice. "Get in here, ten steps!"
The two of them were too far away, out of the range of the illusion runes at the entrance of the alley.
The two of them were clearly hesitant. It was only when Li Mochen impatiently released the safety that they began to tremble with fear. They nervously took ten steps inside, using the smallest strides possible.
Li Mochen did not care. "Can you give me an explanation? Why did you turn back? "
"My apartment is here, behind you."
The one who answered Li Mochen's question was a younger man. He pointed behind Li Mochen and said, "We came back to get something. Just now, some documents were left in my rented apartment. Buddy, you don't have to do this. Judging from the scene, it was legal self-defense. You just need to give a statement to the police. If you don't have a suitable lawyer, we can help you. "
Li Mochen, on the other hand, thought that it was no wonder that his runes had been useless. Since these people were going home, the psychological suggestion effect of his runes was as good as none.
Ignoring the young man's nonsense, he continued asking, "I guess you have a car?"
The two of them fell silent again. About three seconds later, under the pressure of Li Mochen's increasingly cold gaze, the middle-aged man said helplessly, "Yes, it's parked in front of the grocery store next door."
"Very good! Can you please drive the car to the entrance of the alley? If not you, give your key to the person next to you. "
Li Mochen's lips curled into a smile. "You'd better hurry. I don't have the patience."
…
"What's the situation?"
On a seven-story building nine hundred meters away, Jeremy Burt of the Heaven's Eye Detective Agency reached the top of the building with just a few leaps. "Since I've been called back, the alarm should have been lifted, right?"
"More or less. Our magic tool can no longer detect any signs of life from that guy."
The person who answered was a young woman in camouflage clothes and a military vest. "Student André is still where he was. He seems to be having a friendly conversation with two passers-by."
"So he's dead?"
Jeremy felt his scalp go numb. "Cool! It took me less than a minute and twenty seconds to walk back and forth. That's a level-eight Shadowman. "
"My expression was the same as yours just now."
The woman in the military uniform had a complicated expression. "Actually, from the moment that unlucky guy chased him into the alley, the battle ended in a total of twenty-seven seconds. I feel that this classmate Andre is so strong that it's beyond common sense. "
"Do you have a video? I think we can sell it for a good price. "
Jeremiah's eyes lit up. "That guy, Dwight Payton, will definitely be generous. Even if my good friend isn't willing, we can still count on Mr. André Wildenstein, who will become famous and successful in the future. "
"Then you'll be disappointed this time, Boss. The angle here isn't good, and there are too many buildings between us. We can't see what's going on over there. That little guy is more vigilant than we thought. "
"Why do you say that?"
Jeremy looked curiously in the direction of the voice. It was a burly middle-aged man who was pointing at the thermal imager. "You'll know when you look at the image."
Jeremy immediately focused, and his expression changed slightly. "Our student André, he's not dead, is he?"
"Our magic tool shows that he's still alive," the woman in the military uniform replied with a bitter smile.
The woman in the military uniform replied with a wry smile, "I think he used an ice-type spell to freeze the surrounding walls. You know, thermal imagers are useful, but they have their limits. "
“shit! That's really a smart guy. "
Jeremy cursed. Then, he thought of something and raised his binoculars again.
At the entrance of the alley nine hundred meters away, a Dalamu limousine was driving out.
"I'm guessing that he's planning to destroy the evidence. That's what a smart person would do."
The burly man sighed in admiration. "Although it was self-defense, there are too many accidents once he enters the police station. Mr. Burt, he's really smart. "
