Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Mike and the human-form Tree Monster King looked at each other. Both of them had a thought in their hearts.
This divine-tier expert was a little strange!
Mike frowned. He was afraid of his guess. However, Mike still could not help but think about it.
“This person is really a divine-tier expert created by some mysterious organization. Then how many experts at this level does the enemy have?!”
Mike’s expression was dark. He was thinking that after this matter was over, he really had to go and investigate.
Then, he said to the Tree Monster King, “Let’s attack together and try to leave one alive.”
‘The Tree Monster King nodded and said, “Alright.”
The two of them looked at each other and attacked at the same time. That divine-tier expert was instantly flustered.
Mike punched the tube that had been inserted into that person’s body. However, to his surprise, he discovered that the tube was actually undamaged. Instead, the skin and flesh around it had actually sunk in.
Mike was shocked again. This was because he discovered that that person’s body was ice-cold. It did not seem like a temperature that a living person should have. Even if it was a High-level expert who could adjust the temperature of the body, Mike had also never seen a few people who could adjust the
temperature to such a level.
A crazy thought appeared in Mike’s heart. “Could it be that he is no longer a living person?”
The person continued to attack, and the Tree Monster King’s attacks landed on him. However, he did not seem to feel any pain as he continued to attack the Tree Monster King, It frowned and looked at Mike.
Only then did Mike come back to his senses. He joined the battle, and the two of them suppressed the person in an instant.
Eve spat out the tube in her mouth. She frowned, and when he looked at his opponent again, there was some doubt in her eyes.
She asked, “Are you a human or a ghost?”
At that moment, with a long whistle, Akari stood proudly and stepped on the wind and snow to join the battle.
The divine power of the battle instantly changed from four against three to three against six. Crow Beast looked around and frowned. Countless crows appeared, and he instantly escaped from the illusion and said to the others, “Find a chance to break out.”
The person who was battling with Eve did not continue to fight. He pushed back Eve with one move and then immediately retreated.
The person who had been severely injured by the snow mountain giant earlier also used a secret technique and instantly escaped.
Only the person who was being held back by Mike and the Tree Monster King frowned. He wanted to escape from the battle, but he was held back by the two of them and could not break free.
Eve and Akari rushed over, and the four divine-tier powerhouses surrounded the person.
Crow Beast walked to the boundary and saw this scene. He frowned and muttered softly, “Explode!”
The person’s body instantly expanded and then began to expand crazily. The four divine-tier powerhouses saw this and quickly retreated.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The sound of the explosion shook the world.
Bang!
That person turned into a cloud of blood fog and dissipated in midair.
Mike slowly descended from midair, his expression extremely unsightly.
If it was not for his timely reaction and the fact that he had transferred the divine-tier expert who had self-detonated into space, the entire Snowstorm City might have been turned into ruins by this explosion.
Even so, the aftershock from the divine-tier expert’s self-detonation still caused an avalanche. Fortunately, the mountain giant had activated his divine power and stabilized the avalanche. Otherwise, the Snowstorm City would still have been buried under this natural disaster.
A snow-white fox flew over. It circled Mike and said unwillingly, “That’s right. You’re very strong. No wonder that guy, the Dark High Priest, was still thinking about you before he left.”
Mike chuckled and said, “Heh, he understands me.”
The fox nodded in satisfaction and said, “Not bad, not bad. You really know how to praise yourself. I won’t hold it against you for wanting to capture me in the past.”
Mike’s expression stiffened and he smiled bitterly. “It’s been so many years. Why are you still thinking about this?”
The Demon Fox looked at Mike in surprise and asked, “Why? You can capture me and roast me to eat. Can’t I hold a grudge?”
‘Mike’s face was red. He wanted to explain something when he heard the Demonic Fox say, “I’m not joking with you anymore. Let’s get down to business.”
Mike also became serious.
The Demon Fox said, “You all fought with those guys just now, Tell me what you think.”
Mike nodded and said, “Then I’ll go first. The Tree Monster King and I fought one of them. We found that person very strange. He didn’t even look like a living person.”
“Oh?” The Demon Fox frowned. He said: “What do you mean? Tell me in detail?”
Mike gave Demon Fox a detailed description of the man.
Demon Fox frowned. He looked at Mike and said, “If it’s really like what you said, then this matter should be taken seriously. We don’t know how those people were created, nor do we know how many Dark Magi are at that level. If we really start a war with them in the future, we might suffer a huge loss at
the beginning.”
Mike nodded and said, “You’re right. That’s why we should go out and investigate. If that kind of monster is really man-made, then we must pass this information to the central region in a timely manner.”
The Demonic Fox said, “Then, do you have a candidate?”
Mike smiled and said, “There’s no need for a candidate. I’m the candidate myself. I came to the Otherworld this time to investigate the specific powers of the Dark Magi. I discovered that the mysterious organization is secretly creating divine-tier experts. This is something unexpected.”
Demon Fox said, “Then you have to be careful.”
Mike nodded and said, “Initially, I was quite worried about the safety of Snowstorm City. However, the moment the four of you appeared, I immediately felt relieved.”
Demon Fox looked at Mike and smiled. “You’re still the same.”
Mike told Akari about some other matters before finally leaving Snowstorm City.
Mike set foot on the land polluted by the power of the undead once again. He had a headache. He did not know how to infiltrate the Dark Magi, he also did not know where he should go to investigate this man-made creature.
Mike looked at the low depression in the distance and shook his head. He decided to go to the dungeon first.
Mike found out the location of the dungeon from Akari.
He looked at the gray sky and could not help but feel a little depressed.
Mike flew close to the ground. Although he flew slowly and his spiritual energy detection range was reduced to within 100 meters, there was one advantage. It was very difficult to be discovered, even by experts of the same level.
After passing through the snow-white forest and the verdant grassland, they arrived at the dense forest of the Dark High-level Kingdom.
Mike stood on the ruins, looking at the golden tiles and the vermillion wall. Although everything in his sight was dilapidated, they all showed the former prosperity of this land.
This was the former site of the Dark High-level Palace, the place where Elinda used to live..
