After observing the massive building in front of them, Irving turned directly to Sophia and Benjamin. "I believe we must enter this building. Although there are definitely traps inside, we cannot hesitate. The longer we delay, the greater the danger Vicky will face! We need to rescue Vicky as quickly as possible to minimize the impact of the dark forces on her."
Benjamin wholeheartedly agreed with Irving's words. As soon as Irving finished speaking, he volunteered, "Let go in alone. I'm very agile, and I definitely won't get trapped easily."
Irving certainly recognized Benjamin's abilities. However, he felt it was too risky to let Benjamin go in by himself. Irving believed that both he and Benjamin should enter together, while Sophia needed to stay outside to ensure Wendy's safety.
"Let's go in together! It's too dangerous for you to go in alone, and I believe this trap has been ticulously prepared. You won't be able to disarm it by yourself." After saying this, Irving turned his gaze to Wendy. "You don't need to go inside; just stay out here. Sophia will be with you and will make sure you're safe."
Irving's words surprised both Sophia and Wendy. They exchanged glances and then simultaneously exclaid, "Why?!"
The two of them saying this in unison felt a bit strange to them. Feeling sowhat awkward, they each turned to Irving to ask why he wanted to do it this way.
"I believe I need to act with you because my strength is not weak. If I stay outside, both of you would also face a certain level of danger." Sophia stated straightforwardly. In her view, she was certainly not weaker than Benjamin. Thus, she believed she should accompany Irving. Sophia did not think she needed anyone to look after her.
As soon as Sophia finished speaking, Wendy chid in. "Even if I don't have enough power to enter the trap with you, I can still ensure my own safety. You don't need to worry too much about while you're out there."
Though their words were not exactly the sa, the essence of their ssages was clear. Neither of them wanted to be left out of the action.
Irving felt quite helpless in response to what the two of them had said. "I know you both are very confident, but I hope you can have so faith in . The reason I made this arrangent is that I believe it is the most sensible one."
Since Irving had already made his point, Sophia and Wendy decided not to argue further. In the end, Irving and Benjamin entered the building, while Wendy and Sophia waited outside.
Wendy kept a vigilant eye on her surroundings; she didn't trust that Sophia would ensure her safety. She felt that she had to fend for herself. Sophia, on the other hand, did not pay much attention to Wendy's situation. Although she had promised Irving to look after Wendy, that didn't an she had to monitor Wendy's every move.
As soon as Irving and Benjamin entered the building, they were t with a significant threat. The mont they stepped inside, they were confronted by two massive chanical puppets that blocked their path.
The chanical puppets imdiately launched an attack on Irving and Benjamin. Irving reacted quickly, casting Gravity Swamp to successfully slow down the puppets' movent. He then raised his staff and hurled two blazing fireballs at the chanical puppets. While the fireballs didn't completely destroy the puppets, they inflicted severe damage.
Seizing the opportunity, Benjamin maneuvered around to the back of one of the chanical puppets. Using a very sharp dagger he possessed, he destroyed the puppet's critical chanism. In no ti, they managed to take down one of the chanical puppets.
The other chanical puppet, instead of engaging in a fight with Irving and Benjamin, bolted deeper into the building. The two exchanged glances and felt they should pursue it, even though they also considered that this could be a trap. Discover more stories at m,v l'e-
In a split second, they made the sa decision. Without hesitation, they both dashed after the chanical puppet. Although they moved quickly, they still couldn't catch up to it imdiately. They soon found themselves deeper inside the building.
There, they encountered soone they hadn't expected. A stooped old man erged slowly from the depths of the structure. Upon seeing him, Irving's expression darkened significantly.
"I really didn't expect you to still be alive! Didn't I eliminate you already?!" Irving shouted at the stooped old man.
Benjamin was taken aback by Irving's reaction.
At this mont, Benjamin had yet to clearly see the appearance of the stooped old man in the distance.
"Do you really think that as an elder of the Night Blades, I could be so easily eliminated? I was not destroyed by you; in fact, I have gained even greater dark powers! You will pay a heavy price for this!" The old man slowly stepped into the light, and at that mont, Benjamin finally recognized him. It was the long-lost Elder Seville, who had been thought to be dead.
"This is impossible! I watched you be completely destroyed with my own eyes! Even if dark powers are incredibly strong, and even if the Night Blades have so incomprehensible spells, there's no way you could co back to life," Benjamin exclaid, his reaction even more intense than Irving's.
The threat posed by Elder Seville was far greater to Benjamin and Vicky than it was to Irving. Elder Seville had been in constant opposition to the Smith family from the very beginning.
Elder Seville chuckled upon hearing Benjamin's words. "You underestimate the great dark powers too much! Even if you can weaken the forces of darkness, you cannot stop the revenge of the shadows. I will take revenge on your behalf, representing the dark powers."
No sooner had he finished speaking than Elder Seville summoned countless black spheres around his body. Each black sphere was filled with imnse dark energy. At the sa ti, Benjamin was ready for battle, instinctively drawing his dagger.
Only Irving remained calm, gazing at Elder Seville. "You're just a phony projection, aren't you?" he said softly, directing his words at Elder Seville.
This remark caused both Elder Seville and Benjamin to turn their attention to Irving. In that instant, Benjamin realized that his actions might have been a bit too reckless. If Elder Seville was rely a projection, then he needed to keep his composure. Gradually, Benjamin's anxiety subsided, and he returned his dagger to its original position.
Elder Seville, still smiling, replied, "You can see as a projection! But in the upcoming battle, you will understand that my power far exceeds your imagination!"
After saying this, Elder Seville launched an attack on Irving and Benjamin. A torrent of dark energy transford into monstrous forms, charging toward them. Although Benjamin trusted Irving, he still felt an imnse pressure.
Benjamin still drew his weapon, preparing to fight the oncoming dark monsters. However, Irving remained as calm as ever. He didn't even take out his staff, nor did he plan to utilize the power of the Taikoo Fla Pearl. He simply observed the monsters with a steady gaze.
Irving's deanor puzzled Benjamin, causing him to hesitate and refrain from taking any rash action. When the mass of dark monsters charged towards them, they all halted in unison. The smile on Elder Seville's face vanished completely.
Irving lifted his head to look at Elder Seville and smiled. "You think you can throw into a panic with such a level of hypnosis? That's a bit overestimating your abilities, isn't it? Do you really think I can't see through your disguise?"
As soon as Irving finished speaking, he activated the power of the Taikoo Fla Pearl. Under its influence, Elder Seville's form rapidly transford, gradually becoming an ordinary mber of the Night Blades. This mber held a burning glass candle in his hand.
"So your thod of hypnosis relies on a glass candle! It seems I overestimated your strength. I thought you possessed more powerful hypnosis spells," Irving remarked, having dispelled the opponent's disguise. He imdiately launched an attack.
Naturally, Benjamin followed suit, attacking alongside Irving. The ordinary Night Blades mber with the glass candle did not appear flustered at all. He simply smashed the candle onto the ground.
The small fla atop the glass candle quickly erupted into towering flas. "So what if you see through my illusion? You can never eliminate ! Because you cannot pass through this inferno! The flas are infused with dark power. If you attempt to force your way through, you'll be consud by that very darkness!
You would never dare to take such an action!"
The ordinary Night Blades mber remained arrogant. Irving didn't refute his claims. In fact, he and Benjamin stood right in front of the raging flas.
"I indeed cannot pass through, but that doesn't an my attacks can't!" Irving declared. He raised his staff and summoned a powerful fireball. The fireball pierced through the inferno, striking the Night Blades mber behind the flas.
Almost instantly, Irving and Benjamin heard the anguished cries of the Night Blades mber. Before long, the mber was completely consud by the fireball, eting his end.
