"A bow from the Dark Age?! Is this a replica … "Fei Yu muttered to herself.
She was knowledgeable in martial arts and could be called a martial arts expert. She recognized that this was the bow style that some of the powerful families from the Dark Age had.
The Dark Age was an era of change, and the promotion of the Heart Element Equipment impacted the ancient power system.
This did not mean that the ancient power system was not powerful. In fact, even when the first generation of Heart Element experts appeared, there were still peak experts in the ancient power system.
However, when the Heart Element experts were equipped with the Heart Element Equipment, the overall increase in strength was incomparable to that of the ancient power system.
Moreover, the ancient power system paid too much attention to the importance of bloodline, inheritance, and race. In such a power system, the number of experts in each generation was always small.
This was the fatal weakness of the ancient power system, and it was gradually replaced by the era of the Heart Element Equipment.
As for the weapons in the ancient power system, they were not inferior to the Heart Element Equipment. In fact, they were even more prominent in some aspects. However, the manufacturing process was too complicated, and they could not be mass-produced.
Moreover, talent was very important in using them.
The weakness of being unable to be mass-produced was unacceptable in the war against the Oceanic Beast Army.
Just this point alone determined the decline of the ancient power system …
The bow in Hayashi River's hand did not have the structure of the Heart Element Equipment. However, there were countless exquisite patterns on the surface of the bow.
Upon closer inspection, these patterns were actually made of energy crystals. They were embedded in the bow, and it was as if they were a whole entity, emitting a terrifying sharpness.
Pulling the bowstring, Hayashi River aimed at Marqio in the distance. To use this bow, one needed to have the strength of the peak of the Fifth Realm.
However, with [Scale Slither Arm] pulling the bowstring, it wasn't that tiring.
In the distance, just as Marqio roared and was about to activate the hand cannon again, Hayashi River's mechanical arm suddenly released the bowstring.
The slender arrow moved and turned into a blurry arrow shadow, disappearing with a whoosh …
Bang!
A sharp whistle came from the darkness. The sound was like a lion's roar. That arrow suddenly burst into flames as it flew, leaving a long trail of flames behind it.
Not to mention the others, even Hayashi River himself was shocked by the ferocity of this arrow.
He had used this bow before, but he had not been equipped with this arrow. Mossy Bone said that this kind of arrow was not easy to make, and there were very few of them in stock.
Therefore, he had always used other specially made arrows as a substitute. However, he did not expect that these arrows would be so frightening.
In the darkness, a giant flame arrow shot through the fishbone wall and shot straight into Marqio's left arm.
The barbs on his body, which were as thick as armor, were pierced through like paper, leaving a big hole in his shoulder. Black smoke rose from the hole, burning the wound and evaporating the blood that spurted out.
"Ah … this is …"
Ma Qiao screamed and clutched her wound. The pain caused by the arrow was far more severe than it seemed on the surface.
Not only that, but she also recognized this type of arrow. It was a type of long-range weapon that had caused great damage to the Sea Beast King Race in ancient times.
Immediately, Ma Qiao roared and did not dare to stay any longer. She flew up and rushed toward the city gate.
At this moment, Hayashi River looked at Fei Yu and made a gesture to politely invite her to make a move.
Fei Yu had already chased after her. She was vigilant about Ma Qiao's weapon and could not let this sea beast escape.
Lin Chuan turned his head around and looked at the timid Laknia. The girl's gaze when she looked at him was even more respectful than before. It was clear that she was scared.
"Let's go and catch that Luo Er. If you have any grievances with that person, you can vent your anger …" Hayashi River said softly.
"Ah …"
Laknia let out a soft cry and widened her eyes. She did not expect Mister to say that.
In fact, she had thought of asking Mister to make a move, but out of fear of Hayashi River, she did not dare to ask.
"Let's go."
Hayashi River raised his hand and grabbed the little girl. He activated his [Materialized Mental Energy] and disappeared from the rooftop in an instant. Like a ghost, he floated up and left the city gate, heading toward the outskirts of the Foka Tower.
…
Whoosh whoosh whoosh …
The outskirts of the Foka Tower were muddy and humid all year round. Now that it was the rainy season, the roads in the outskirts were very bad.
Not only that, but the outskirts were also very dangerous. Apart from the ferocious beasts, there were also dangers lurking around …
Luo Er sprinted in the dark. His feet were covered in mud, and his body was covered in moss and mud. It was as if he had rolled around in a swamp. He looked extremely pathetic.
Ever since he had obtained the title of nobility, Luo Er had not been in such a sorry state. He was usually very careful about his appearance. His attire, behavior, and even the way he spoke were all extremely strict.
He had even looked for the most famous teacher in the Great Star Ao Prefecture, the etiquette teacher who had taught the princes, and studied hard for several years.
Now, he was a standard aristocrat in all aspects. This was an identity that he had dreamed of since he was very young.
However, in this escape, he had long thrown away the etiquette of aristocrats. His life was more important, so to hell with aristocratic etiquette.
Escape!?
Run …
Luo Er panted heavily as he sprinted through the wilderness. He calculated the distance. He had to maintain this speed for at least another two hours before he could completely leave the Foka Tower. Only then would he be safe.
"Is this the right direction? Yes, there's no mistake … "
In the dark, Luo Er could still distinguish the direction clearly. After all, he had come from the military's special forces and had received the most rigorous training.
Especially when it came to identifying directions, he had even received pointers from the military's experts. It could be said that he had received their teachings.
A face flashed across his mind. It was the expert who had given him pointers, the future star general. He could be considered half a teacher when he was in the special forces.
Every time he used this method of identifying directions, Luo Er would think of this person. There would be a twisted feeling of pain and happiness in his heart.
This half a teacher of his, the future star general, the guy that he had never been able to catch up to, was pushed into the deep abyss by him …
"This bastard?!"
Luo Er shook his head violently to expel this face from his mind. He gritted his teeth and said, "Do you think I've failed this time? Hmph … As long as I successfully return to the Great Star Ao Prefecture, everything will return to normal. A loser like you can only look up at me miserably from the ground … "
Suddenly, Luo Er slipped and fell uncontrollably. No matter how hard he tried to maintain his balance, he still fell forward and ate a mouthful of mud.
Fog started to appear around him. The temperature suddenly dropped and the sound of waves came from afar …
"What's going on?! This is … "
Luo Er suddenly stood up and looked around. Through the thick fog, he could still see the white sea in the distance.
He was not far from the coastline of the White Nightmare Sea …
This is impossible?!
Immediately, Luo Er shook his head and blinked hard to see if he was hallucinating.
Along the way, he had been very clear about the direction. He was clearly heading towards the Foka Plains. Why did he end up at the coastline of the White Nightmare Sea?
Moreover, it had only been less than an hour. With his speed, it was impossible for him to travel so far.
"Something's not right!"
Luo Er immediately became alert and took precautions. He realized that he had stepped into a trap similar to an illusion.
He was not surprised at all. The Foka High Tower was filled with experts tonight. There was nothing strange about experts proficient in mental energy.
"I don't know who you are. I am Viscount Luo Er of the Sea-Ao Empire. If you are a being from the mainland, please come out and talk. If you want money or other things, we can discuss … "
Viscount Lowell looked around vigilantly as he called out in a measured tone.
However, what responded to him was a roar. This was the roar of a sea beast. Along with this roar, a ferocious aura swept over.
For Luo Er who had fought on the frontlines, this aura was all too familiar. This was the unique aura of the sea beasts at night. Anyone who had experienced it once would not forget it.
Hearing this, Luo Er did not panic. Instead, he heaved a sigh of relief. He took out a seal that looked like a shell and said, "So you are a friend from the sea beasts. That means you are one of us. This is the seal of the royal sea beasts …"
Holding this seal, Luo Er was still making hand gestures. This was a strange etiquette unique to the royal sea beasts.
Instantly, the ferocious aura around him receded like the tide. Luo Er could not help but heave a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he had deliberately learned this etiquette when he was working with Ma Qiao. With this seal, ordinary sea beasts would not dare to do anything to him.
Luo Er knew the internal situation of the sea beasts better than anyone else. The hierarchy among the sea beasts was much stricter than on land.
Even the strongest sea beasts had to give the royal sea beasts enough respect.
This kind of situation was rare on land. Even if it was the royal family of a large empire, if they did not have any real power, the top powerhouses would not care about them.
Letting out a sigh, Luo Er was about to say something when suddenly, he felt a sense of fear. Before he could react, he was hit hard and fell to the ground.
Crack …
The sound of bones breaking came from his body. This heavy blow had broken at least half of Luo Er's bones.
"This is … it's you …"
Luo Er screamed and looked around in horror. He did not know who the attacker was.
However, this kind of attack was too familiar. It could be said to be unforgettable.
On the hover train, he was silently hit and then admitted to the hospital …
Luo Er's memory of that attack was too deep. Now that he was hit hard, he immediately reacted.
"Hehe …"
Around him, the fog became thicker. A soft laughter sounded, faintly discernible. When it entered Luo Er's ears, he widened his eyes in horror.
He was also very familiar with this voice. Wasn't this the little girl who had escaped?
The little monster who made him unable to eat or sleep?
The person who attacked him was in cahoots with this little monster?
…
A series of thoughts flashed through his mind. Luo Er's heart was filled with horror. He rolled and wanted to take the opportunity to escape. However, another invisible blow smashed half of the bones in his body. In the midst of his screams, he lay on the ground and wailed like a dead dog, unable to move.
In the distance, Lin Chuan and Laknia stood quietly and stared at Luo Er, who was struggling on the ground.
Beside Luo Er, the Blue Kitty squatted. The latter raised its huge right front paw and slapped Luo Er's body repeatedly, as if it was swatting a fly.
No matter how Blue Kitty slapped him, Luo Er ignored it. He lay on the ground and used all kinds of words to beg for mercy.
There was actually no fog around him. What Luo Er saw was a spiritual illusion set up by Hayashi River.
Through the enhancement of the Seventh Armor, his spiritual energy spread out and could easily affect a Level Five powerhouse.
Luo Er's strength was still far from a Level Five. Moreover, he was fleeing in panic, so he was easily affected.
Bang bang bang …
The Blue Kitty slapped him several times and shattered seventy percent of the bones in Luo Er's body. Other than his skull, his spine was still intact, but his limbs and ribs were cracked. Just a slight movement would cause unbearable pain.
Whoosh …
The little Blue Kitty scuttled back into Hayashi River's pocket. It was a little tired of slapping. Using a phrase it learned from television, hitting this kind of trash was dirtying its paws.
Hayashi River looked at the little girl and said, "Go and vent your anger."
Laknia looked at this young Mechanic but did not step forward. She had rehearsed countless times in her mind. If one day, this bastard Luo Er fell into her hands, how she would torture this bastard!
However, when it really came to this moment, she did not know how to act. Should she use her own spiritual energy to twist this bastard's head into a ball of paste?
For such a bastard, this kind of ending, the little girl felt that it should not be like this …
Looking at Laknia's expression, Hayashi River patted her head and said, "Don't kill him. This kind of guy, it's too easy for him to die so easily. After you vent your anger, leave the rest to me. Go … "
"Okay …"
Laknia nodded. She looked at the awed Mister Cat, then at Mister Cat, who had a cat's head exposed. She bowed and walked forward.
Looking at the little girl's back, Hayashi River nodded. After tonight, the knot in Laknia's heart should be relieved a lot.
"She was born with powerful spiritual energy. It would be a pity if such a talent was wasted. After tonight, she might be able to learn the contents of the [Blood Spirit Ritual] …" Lin Chuan muttered.
At this moment, Luo Er's scream came from not far away. Under the pressure of the little girl's spiritual energy, his body was completely distorted and bent into a strange arc.
Seeing this, Hayashi River's expression changed. It seemed that his expectations were still too optimistic.
Blue Kitty had already rushed out, slapped the little girl down with a paw, and carried her back.
"Meow …"
Little Blue Kitty was very angry. It pointed at Laknia. How did it usually teach her? Why couldn't this little girl control her temper?
Hayashi River shook his head and did not say anything. He sent Fei Yu a location.
Soon, when Fei Yu arrived, she was a little speechless when she saw Luo Er's miserable state.
"Miss Fei Yu, you still have to be careful. Don't accidentally kill him. That'll be a big loss for us …" Hayashi River warned seriously.
Fei Yu: "…"
Even if Luo Er recovered, he would be very miserable.
At this moment, a ray of light appeared on the horizon. Dawn had arrived …
Looking at the city silhouette of Foka Tower in the distance, Hayashi River sighed. This trip to Foka Tower had indeed reached his expectations.
However, there were too many things that were involved. Who knew what shocking secrets would be revealed after these things were sorted out.
…
The next day.
After a night of chaos, Foka Tower's main army gathered and surrounded the strongholds of many forces in the city.
Then, a series of news broke out. The chaos that happened last night not only involved the invasion of sea beasts, but also many forces plotting to assassinate Lieutenant General Philon …
This shocking news shocked the upper echelons of Foka Tower. Many people were shocked, knowing that Lieutenant General Philon was going to settle the score.
However, the major forces that were involved in this matter were unable to refute it, because the evidence was irrefutable.
When the sea beasts invaded, several major forces caught wind of the news and immediately formulated an emergency plan to add fuel to the fire and kill Lieutenant General Philon.
After all, Lieutenant General Philon had been the chief commander of Foka Tower's main army for too long.
Originally, many people wanted to wait for Lieutenant General Philon to retire before making other arrangements. However, they did not expect to receive news that he was going to break through to realm seven.
This was great news for the army fighting against the sea beasts. However, it was bad news for many forces and organizations.
Since the sea beasts wanted to assassinate Lieutenant General Philon at all costs, why couldn't they give it a push …
This kind of thinking eventually led to the chaos last night.
Of course, there were many other factors that were not exposed.
While cleaning up the city, Lieutenant General Philon also severely condemned the Blood Spirit Race through the Foka Tower. He angrily complained about their actions last night and demanded an explanation from the royal family of the Blood Spirit Race.
The Blood Spirit Race was dumbfounded when they received the news. They were not on good terms with the Eastern Continent, but sending so many realm seven powerhouses to assassinate Lieutenant General Philon would not bring them any benefits even if they succeeded. Wasn't this a retarded plan?
Thus, the royal family of the Blood Spirit Race, which had always been the public enemy of the Eastern Continent and never responded to accusations, issued a solemn statement this time. They said that this matter had nothing to do with the Blood Spirit Race and asked the Foka Tower to investigate.
The Foka Tower scoffed at the royal family's statement. There was even a report that pointed out that the Blood Spirit Race denied this time because it was too embarrassing for them to fail.
After all, so many realm seven powerhouses had attacked, but they had all been killed in the Foka Tower. This was a humiliation that no force had the face to admit.
There were even photos attached to this report. They were taken when the battle in the Eastern Continent was ending. Although the photos were censored, it was clear from various analysis that the fellows in the photos were the powerhouses of the Blood Spirit Race.
In response, the Blood Spirit Race issued a stern protest, saying, "This is slander. The Blood Spirit Race demands a thorough investigation …"
Then, a war of words began to form. The popularity of the matter continued to soar on various forums, and the spearhead began to point out the origins of these "Blood Spirit Race" powerhouses.
Soon, this news began to spread to various countries in the Eastern Continent. Some people jumped up in fright when they heard this news, their faces pale.
"No, the true identities of these people must not be exposed!"
"What should we do? If their identities are exposed, I'm done for. We must seal off the news … "
"Contact Lieutenant General Philon. Quick! Go … "
At the same time, in the palace of the Great Star Ao County, in a large hall, an effeminate and handsome man roared angrily, but he didn't dare to make a sound. He smashed everything in front of him into pieces.
…
Soon …
In his office, Lieutenant General Philon received a piece of paper from Mr. Gu. On it was the compensation that Mr. Gu had requested.
Sweeping a glance at this piece of paper, Lieutenant General Feilong almost choked on his breath. He raised his head to look at Mr. Bone and thought to himself, 'This compensation is too ruthless. This is practically digging out the other party's heart.'
"This is only the compensation that I'm requesting. If this person is unwilling, the identities of these disguised 'Blood Spirit Race' will be exposed immediately …"
Mossy Bone nodded slightly and looked at Lieutenant General Philon with a smile. "Of course, Lieutenant General Philon can request more compensation. After all, we suffered great losses last night. "
Lieutenant General Philon looked at the contents of this piece of paper, rubbed his chin, and grinned. This was right. Since he had the other party by the throat, he could not ask for less.
