"What a thick smell of blood." Li Xiang frowned. He was very sensitive to the smell of blood. The smell of [Cold Winter Claw] was mixed with dozens of different types of blood, and the mottled smell was shocking.
This ancient city was completely covered by the Death Omen Star Veil. The entire city was emitting a strange purple light, but no one came face to face with them.
It was as if they were the only two people in this huge city.
"I passed through the Door of Randomness. From what I observed, this door selected the least number of people, but it shouldn't be this small." Li Xiang thought to himself as he let Nathoro walk in front of him to scout the path.
There was no one else around them.
A Level-3 Magician wouldn't be able to completely hide in front of him.
"Hiss …" Nathoro's gasp came from the front. The usually calm werewolf princess was actually scared. Li Xiang was a bit curious and walked over to take a look.
What he saw was a pile of corpses. The broken corpses seemed to have been kneaded into a ball by a huge force and thrown here casually. He could vaguely see some human heads and black robes. It seemed that there were Magicians from the Seven Continents among the dead.
Other than that, most of the corpses belonged to creatures from another world.
Li Xiang squatted down and touched the blood on the ground with his finger. He smelled it and immediately stood up. "This smell of blood is similar to the one coming from outside. It seems to be from a creature. But why is it mixed with the smell of other blood? Strange."
"That should be a Blood Breed's Blood Fusion Monster!" Nathoro raised her eyebrows and said in a low voice, "The Blood Breed's civilization is a bit more advanced than ours. They are also one of the rulers of our world. They have always worked hard to create many strange creatures. It is said that they once used the blood and flesh of many creatures to create a monster that only has battle instincts. It is very powerful and is one of the Blood Breed's greatest weapons. "
"Blood Fusion Monster? Sounds like a summoning creature. " Li Xiang knew that there was a branch of Occult Magic called Summoning Spells. Last time, Night Shadow used Occult Summoning Spells to deal with the creatures from the Shadow World in the thunderstorm clouds.
Nathra didn't know about the player classes and the human combat system, so she couldn't join in the conversation. She could only tell him what she knew.
"The controller of the Blood Fusion Monster is usually an upper-level Blood Breed. He might even be a descendant of some prince. We should try not to provoke him … Ah!"
Before she could finish speaking, the chain around her neck was suddenly pulled. She staggered and fell to the ground in a sorry state. She was forcefully dragged away by Li Xiang.
"I … I can walk on my own."
"Don't worry. If I really encounter a monster that I can't handle, I won't fight it head-on."
I'll just abandon you.
The corners of Li Xiang's lips curled upward. This werewolf princess was much smarter than her appearance suggested. She was still a bit angry when her tribesmen were slaughtered, but she had quickly adapted to her status as a slave. This kind of person would grow quickly if she was given some opportunities and a springboard.
He had the idea of using the Blood Fusion Monster to deal with her, but it wasn't time yet.
Li Xiang activated [Sense Increase] and followed the lingering smell of the fused blood in the air to track down the Blood Fusion monster that might exist.
The Blood Breeds were no match for humans. The Blood Fusion Monster's controller had taken such a huge risk to slaughter a group of people here. It wasn't just to steal time. It was very likely that it had discovered some precious Holy Relic!
Li Xiang let go of the chain in his hand and signaled for Nathra to follow him freely. At the same time, he used his hand to draw a line across his neck. Nathra, who was still holding onto some hope, turned pale. She nodded slightly, indicating that she wouldn't run away.
She didn't dare to take a gamble. If she ran away and was caught, what would happen to her?
She had heard many stories about powerful humans from her grandfather. They were a group of powerful and perverted people. They would even skin their tribesmen and use them as cushions. Some things were even scarier than death.
Or, they would turn an outstanding descendant like her into a reproductive tool. She would have to give birth to their offspring day and night. She would have to live in a dark hell forever.
Nathra was so scared that she was trembling. Li Xiang was also surprised. He was just threatening her. How could she be so scared?
Without thinking, Li Xiang continued to follow the scent.
The Shadow Wolf's innate ability to hide was very shocking. There were a few times when Li Xiang still completely lost track of Nathra's position. However, she seemed to know this very well. Every time she completely disappeared for a while, she would immediately reappear. This made Li Xiang feel at ease.
She was even more afraid of the Origin Gun in Li Xiang's black robe.
Twelve consecutive shots had instantly killed all of her tribesmen. This would be a shadow that would haunt her for the rest of her life.
Li Xiang was very satisfied with her awareness. If she could continue to be so smart, he wouldn't mind giving her a good ending.
The two of them finally arrived at their destination ten minutes later.
Although it was called a destination, it was more like a gathering.
This was a large empty space. However, because of the Death Omen Star Curtain, if they were slightly further away, they would lose sight of others.
A group of black-robed people were gathered in the middle of the empty space. They were all human magicians from the Seven Continents. They held weapons with serious expressions and stood back to back. It was as if they were guarding against something or scouting something.
In such an environment, the advantage of [Increased Sensory Perception] was fully displayed. The magicians had to be close to each other to maintain their vision. However, Li Xiang still had a good range of vision.
"There are Level-3 and Level-2 magicians." Li Xiang counted. There were twelve of them. The leader's figure was very familiar.
He gestured for Nathro to stay put and wait for his orders. He then moved closer to her.
The disgusting smell of the Blood Fusion still lingered in the air. This meant that the Blood Fusion monster was still nearby.
"Everyone, be careful. Don't spread out. That monster's attack speed is very fast. If you are dragged away, even I can't save you." The leader reminded his companions in a low voice. "The vampire controlling it should be here too. Find him. We must get that Holy Relic."
"Yes," the others agreed in a low voice.
Hearing the leader's voice, Li Xiang immediately understood why it was so familiar.
That person was Yan Kui!
When Hunter had rushed into the camp of the aristocratic families to kill them, he had been injured by Li Xiang with a special bullet. Then, he had returned to the Seven Continents and spread the news that Li Xiang had the Heart of Disaster.
He was Bai Ya's right-hand man and also a famous member of the younger generation in General Shogun's faction.
He was also a Level-3 magician. It seemed that he had come prepared this time.
Since the leader was Yan Kui, Link was not in a hurry to do anything. He just watched quietly.
The magicians led by Yan Kui were fully focused. They were alert of the Blood Fusion monster that was hiding nearby.
The twelve magicians sealed off the surrounding area and waited quietly for the Blood Fusion monster in the purple mist to make a move.
Li Xiang and Nathra hid at the back. They ensured that they did not enter the range of the magicians while monitoring the situation.
Just then, Li Xiang suddenly heard a voice. It was coming closer and closer. The voice sounded familiar, but he could not remember who it was.
"Come to me."
Li Xiang was shocked. His hair stood on end. He immediately entered battle mode. His aura spread out in the purple mist. Fortunately, he retracted it in time and was not discovered.
After using [Sense Increase], he could sense further than normal people. However, he could not hear very far away.
The source of the voice was very far away from Li Xiang. He could not tell the exact location of the voice.
After that, he did not hear that familiar and strange voice again.
Just as Li Xiang was distracted, the twelve magicians started fighting the Blood Fusion monster in the purple mist.
Thick tentacles stretched out from the fog, with disgusting suction cups attached to them. They opened and closed, swallowing and spitting out dark red blood.
"Be careful. This blood is very corrosive." Yan Kui bent his body and instantly activated three strengthening spells. His body under the black robe swelled up. His muscles became firm and his body almost doubled in size.
Last time, he had used this move to successfully block Li Xiang's special bullet. It was obvious that after strengthening, Yan Kui's Physique had reached an unbelievable level.
He could take a hit from a special bullet without much damage. With such a Physique, ordinary origin substance guns could not even break through his skin defense.
Under Yan Kui's command, the others activated their own spells in an orderly manner. This was the first time Li Xiang had seen a group of magicians perform magic up close. The magic particles in the air fluctuated continuously. As the magic circuits materialized, the magicians revealed their ultimate moves one by one and easily dealt with the incoming tentacles.
Among the strengthening, support, and general spells, the strengthening spell was the most practical. It was also the most effective in battle. Magicians who had a large number of these spells were very powerful. Yan Kui and the other two standing at the front were this type.
Another Level-3 magician had a total of four strengthening spells. Two of them increased Physique, and two of them were battle-type spells. The spells bombarded the Blood Fusion monster hidden in the purple mist and made it howl.
"Support: Realm Seal." In the crowd, a Level-2 Magician girl cast the first support-type magic spell. A thin layer of barrier spread out, enveloping the entire area.
Li Xiang had seen this spell in the magic library before. It was a trigger-type spell. The magician condensed the magic particles they could sense into a barrier and set it up in the surroundings, forming an invisible barrier.
As long as someone passed by and touched it, it would create a large ripple and expose their position instantly.
Not many people learned this kind of detection and trigger-type spell. After all, it had to occupy a magic pit and consumed a lot of resources and weight. It was not very useful in battle. However, when the girl used it, it was very effective in coordination with the group of magicians.
Ripples appeared in several places not far away. Yan Kui immediately knew where the enemy was hiding. He gripped his battle axe with both hands and shouted loudly. His figure flashed and jumped in one of the directions.
So fast. Even with improved eyesight, it's still hard to see his movements. As expected of a Level-3 magician. Li Xiang was secretly impressed. His peak speed was 78m/s, which was still a distance away from the 100m/s standard speed of a Level-3 magician. Yan Kui was one of the best Level-3 magicians. His instantaneous speed just now was probably over 120m/s, which was really shocking.
Even his reflexes were not enough for this kind of speed.
Yan Kui swung his battle axe down and collided with a few tentacles. Yan Kui felt his body suddenly become sluggish. The battle axe seemed to have chiseled into a ball of meat paste. He knew that he had seen through the enemy's concealment. Delighted, a red light flashed on his left glove.
Raging flames burst out from his fist.
This was another magic spell, and also the last one he could use.
His weight could only support him for four spells at a time. Yan Kui was talented and strong. He was also one of the best Level-3 magicians. The only downside was his small weight.
The crimson flames drew a terrifying arc in the air and blasted a crack in the purple mist.
The giant Blood Fusion monster that had been hiding behind finally revealed its true appearance.
Seeing its true appearance, everyone felt their stomachs churn. Even Li Xiang, who had trained many times, felt very uncomfortable. It was a kind of complete mental pollution.
The Blood Fusion monster roared. Its stomach was open, and its intestines and organs spilled all over the ground.
The pungent smell of mixed blood came from its body. It seemed that it had swallowed many creatures and was now forcibly combining their flesh and blood into its own body to evolve into such a monster.
Yan Kui's battle axe fiercely dug into its body, making a piercing sound of meat paste. However, the Blood Fusion monster did not retreat at all. Its wriggling flesh stuck the battle axe. Then, dozens of tentacles shot out from its body and stabbed towards Yan Kui's body.
The wind was as sharp as a knife, and it was extremely painful when it hit his face. After getting close to the Blood Fusion monster, Yan Kui realized that this thing was not a living creature. It did not know pain, nor did it know whether it was dead or alive. It only knew how to move according to its master's orders!
He decisively gave up on the battle axe and somersaulted backwards. He dodged the tentacles at a speed that was hard to see with the naked eye and floated to the side.
In just a short while, the Blood Fusion monster hid in the purple mist again.
However, soon, ripples appeared in a few places. Even with such a powerful summoned creature, the Blood Clan member could not withstand the combined attacks of the twelve magicians.
This time, the Blood Fusion monster was not so lucky. Before it could hide properly, it was dragged out by the magicians. It was like a moving ball of meat, twisting its body and struggling.
"Careful!" Yan Kui's eyes were sharp and his hands were agile. He sensed a trace of inexplicable danger.
Unfortunately, his warning was still a beat too late. The Blood Fusion monster suddenly screamed and exploded after being bombarded by countless magic spells.
The others around them did not expect it to explode. At that moment, the ball of meat expanded to the extreme. The terrifying force of the explosion scared even Li Xiang.
These people were finished.
Li Xiang did not even need to look at the result.
The moment the ball of meat exploded, the accumulated blood and venom all sprayed out. It was a really strong corrosive liquid, and all of it penetrated the magicians' bodies.
They screamed incessantly as their bodies quickly dissolved. Their bodies were as soft as cotton candy and melted.
While they were in chaos, a gray figure quietly leaped from the side.
Unfortunately, she had underestimated this auxiliary magic spell. After a few steps, the ripples spread out again.
