"Honored Tumor Knight?"
William, who had been imrsed in extre pleasure, returned to normal in an instant, and even his complexion grew poor.
Although he had not established contact with Cancer Palace, he still had quite a good impression of it, not to ntion that his important partner was still there.
Moreover, according to Jin’s potential, it was entirely possible that he had already completed the path and been promoted to a knight.
"Mr. Art, your nose seems quite sensitive... Can you directly determine the number of people present here?"
William could not directly inquire about Jin’s information. If Art were made aware of their relationship and Jin was truly among the squad, given his endless malevolence, he would inevitably exploit this knowledge.
He might even celebrate William’s appointnt as the chief of the new circus departnt by presenting a human head cake made from Jin’s skull.
"Two n and one woman,
If I had to describe them, they’d roughly equate to smoked dried cheese baked with elephant at, slightly rotten black pepper pork sausages, and a plump, juicy stewed deer hoof.
It’s a rather decent squad, especially since one of them emits a notable tumor aura."
However, they lacked the skills of your moon friend—they couldn’t find the circus tents on their own and could only follow the scent left by the audience to locate the general encampnt.
But, well~ Since they’re folks from my hotown, naturally, I should go out and receive them, shouldn’t I?"
The ntion of two n and a woman gave William a start,
"Mr. Art, may I accompany you to have a look?"
"This isn’t just about having a look~ Any potential threat to the circus must be eradicated. Are you suggesting you want to celebrate with slaughter?
Still, those Honored Tumor Knights, though no threat to , are quite dangerous for you.
Furthermore, once you go out with , you represent the circus. If your performance is poor, I might have to kill you."
"Alright."
"I’ll go too! After all, the remaining number of audience mbers is no longer sufficient to support the subsequent performances." Catherine, who usually disliked causing trouble, also took the initiative to follow.
...
[Water Tumor Mountains]
A wild boar, its abdon covered in tumors, dragged them on the ground to increase its stability,
A sickly sika deer with tumors branching off its antlers,
And a massive Mammoth, its hair concealing a dense mass of ancient tumors. Unlike the forr mounts, despite its gigantic size, it moved with no lack of agility.
The tumor-ridden mounts carried their masters in search of the highest peak.
Seated atop the sika deer, the slim female knight pulled out a tumor roulette from her waist, the root pointer fixed here, confirming that all the climbers had disappeared at this spot.
The only red lips visible beneath the female knight’s helt moved as she spoke:
"All the climbers disappeared upon reaching here. I suspect there’s a hidden subspace channel sowhere on the peak.
Combining the clues we’ve gathered on the way and the state of that incompetent City Lord of Water Tumor City, I surmise that with a high probability... it’s that circus hidden here.
Captain Yuno, I suggest we halt the investigation and report the situation here to Cancer Palace and let the Lord decide."
As the woman theorized,
A sigh escaped Captain Yuno atop the Mammoth, his armor retro and his helt adorned with a tusk design;
he nodded in agreent.
If it were really the circus here, the three of them would stand no chance against it.
Disregarding the boss behind the circus who could match the Lord and might even predate the Origin era in unknown existence, just the exiled carrier of the malignant tumor was trouble enough for them.
Without full certainty, Captain Yuno decisively decided to leave.
"Hurry up and go! If it is indeed the circus, that disgusting fellow might’ve already slled the stench of our pus."
Just as he took control of the Mammoth to descend the mountain,
Two cards flew out from the narrow gap in an unknown plane, circling at high speed and locking onto the man upon the Mammoth.
"Captain, watch out!"
The female knight, proficient in perception, instantly gave a warning.
However, Yuno did not make any move to dodge or assu a defensive stance,
Instead, he took a deep breath in, his already large body expanding to twice its original size as his face split to reveal a quadrilateral mouth bristling with fangs.
Roar!
The roar shook the surrounding mountains, and cities far away could clearly hear the bellow, even feeling the discomfort of their flesh pierced by the sound waves.
The roar’s energy impact sent the card flying out, landing on the nearby ground, corresponding to the Big Ghost Card and the Small Ghost Card.
The surface of the Big Ghost Card imdiately sprouted tumors,
while from the surface of the Small Ghost Card, black liquid oozed out, and tentacles drilled forth,
At the sa ti, a youth appeared, his face hidden behind a needle-studded mask within the hood.
Before Art, corresponding to the Big Ghost Card, had fully materialized, a voice squeezed out from his swelling, distorted vocal cords:
"Isn’t that Yuno! I rember you... Back then, during my banishnt ceremony, you, as a new recruit representative, were guarding the outer gate. I could tell at a glance that under your bulging belly, you had an impressive number of hair follicle tumors.
Just as I thought, look at you now, already a team captain and even bestowed with special armor.
That roar just now was quite powerful!"
As Clown Art’s disgusting visage ca into view, with his exaggerated hooked nose sniffing around in the air, all three people under their helts had an uncomfortable expression on their faces.
William’s gaze imdiately focused on the female knight on the back of the Sika Deer, relieved that it wasn’t Jin.
Booming voice emanated from the Mammoth’s back, "Art, we three are just following the trail of Water Tumor City’s disappearance and found this place. Seeing as it’s your circus ’handling business’ here, we have no intention of interfering and are preparing to leave now."
"Ah? Why leave~ I haven’t tasted fresh, benign tumors in a long ti! Yuno, you should understand
quite well;
mountains ford of tumors like these can easily be assimilated by . You know very well whether you can escape."
A tongue covered in tumorous bumps slithered, licking around the corner of his mouth.
"Dense Fear Syndro" spread out at this mont,
A paralyzing sensation instantly swept over the three people’s bodies, even the mountain surface started to bulge with nurous granular structures.
Right then,
A Mammoth suddenly reared up, exerting trendous force! As the mountain tremored, the granules on its surface were directly flattened, and the fear syndro in everyone’s hearts was also erased by a large margin.
Accompanied by a sound similar to tribal drums and a bass chorus.
A silver fra decorated with fangs erged above the Yuno Knight’s head, the end shaped like a Mammoth skull, the interior solution mixed with hair and pus.
Not only that,
but an ancient series of numbers were also inscribed on the silver fra - [98].
When Catherine saw such numbers, she imdiately stepped back, leaving Art at the forefront.
"Wow! Yuno, you actually made it onto the Silver List, ranked ninety-eight! No wonder you have such courage, not afraid of
at all!
Back when you were on guard, I could clearly hear your fast heartbeat out of fear, hahaha!"
Yuno took the initiative to suggest, "Art, I’ll stay here and duel with you, letting my two companions leave. How about that?"
Art placed one hand behind his ear, pretending not to hear clearly, and counter-asked, "Eh? I didn’t hear wrong, did I? Let them leave and report the situation here to the Cancer Palace, then have that old woman co and annihilate ?
I’m not that foolish!
I’ll duel with you alone;
I’ve not tried to kill a patient from the Silver List for a long ti... Your two teammates, let them be dealt with by my teammates.
Run quickly, children, or you’ll get caught in the crossfire."
Art made a shooing gesture and Mammoth Yuno also gave his teammates a knowing look.
"I will do my best to hold Art off. The two people by Art’s side are clearly of lower strength, but you cannot afford to linger! Prioritize escape and report the situation here to the Lord as quickly as possible."
"Understood."
The Wild Boar and the Sika Deer imdiately turned and dashed away.
William and Catherine, however, did not move, but were engaged in a verbal negotiation.
Catherine eyed the exceptional Sika Deer, "I’m chasing the woman, the man riding the Wild Boar is yours, William."
"No, let’s switch... I have not yet completed the path;
let
take the weakest one."
"Fine~ It’s just that I don’t want you to get too close to other females. Since that man is about to die, I’ll let you have him!"
After dividing their tasks, Clown Art’s palm landed on their shoulders,
Crack, crack!
The Water Tumor Mountains swelled with two pus-filled bulges that engulfed the two, quickly transporting them to the inevitable path down the mountain.
Ever since the circus chose to open in the Water Tumor Mountains,
This mountain range with tumor attributes had already been eroded by Art;
its inner layers filled with his malignant tumors, the entire mountain range under his control, able to preemptively warn of any potential threats.
"Co on, show
what you’ve got, little Yuno," said Art.
