Chapter 768: Chapter 654: Kind of Familiar / Sowhat Easy to Kill
When Zuo Fang entered the city, the chaos within had already been brought under control by the combined efforts of the City Defense Forces and the Holy Court’s troops.
Although the awakened residents were panicked, they were not overly frightened.
The Knights Legion of Tunus Cathedral did not participate in the pursuit, after all, this was a matter for the empire’s city defense; the Holy Court’s involvent would be an overreach.
Thus, the Holy Court troops opted to ensure the safety of the citizens, and their broad backs provided a great sense of security to everyone.
As for the arrest, even though the wanted order was issued by the Holy Court, the apprehension of the criminals was a matter for the city defense.
When the ti ca, the City Defense Forces would simply take the criminals to the Holy Court to have their sins cleansed.
“How’s the situation?”
Zuo Fang asked a person disguised as a civilian.
The Sun Knight replied, “We cannot confirm yet if that girl is the one who escaped, but her stature and appearance bear so resemblance. It seems she got into an argunt with a young man, and the strength she demonstrated is not that of an ordinary person; she knows so magic. According to witnesses, that house was burned down by her.”
Zuo Fang nodded and then asked, “What about the young man?”
“His identity is still unclear for now, but it seems he has cultivated qi, and the qi he emanates is extrely forceful, unlike ordinary people,” said the knight.
“Does he use a sword?”
“No.”
Zuo Fang nodded thoughtfully once again, and as he spoke, he had already arrived at the location where the trouble first started.
It was an inn burned down to char.
And the speed of those two was extrely fast.
In just a short ti, they had gone from the west of the city to the east, creating sparks and lightning along the way, waking up half of Tunus City-State with fires burning ruins everywhere.
Besides the damage that appears to have been caused by magic, there were several walls shattered violently.
It seed as if in pursuit of soone, they completely disregarded any obstacles in their way, smashing through anything that blocked their path in a rampage of frenzy.
“The presence of Blood Qi is quite potent; the opponent is probably a high-level warrior,” said the Sun Knight with so wariness.
“Whether it’s a high-level warrior or sothing else, it’s still uncertain,” Zuo Fang replied as he picked up a chunk of smashed wall brick, rubbed the remnants of qi on it, and his expression was sowhat impenetrable.
The knight beside him did not understand, but since the leader did not continue, he did not press for answers.
Zuo Fang tossed aside the wall brick and looked toward the direction of East City District where faint sounds of battle were emanating, saying, “Dispatch n to guard all four city gates. If anyone is spotted leaving, there’s no need to chase; just take note of their movents.”
“Yes!”
The Sun Knight quickly left.
Zuo Fang still had no intention of capturing the suspects at the mont.
After all, if it were players, with their incessant and bizarre tactics, sending the Knight Order might just end up like the Calabash Brothers trying to save their grandpa, and it was still uncertain whether they would be able to keep the suspects.
After giving his orders, Zuo Fang looked in the direction of the commotion, thought for a mont, and then his figure swiftly vanished.
He didn’t possess the ability to flash instantly.
But his movent technique was like mist, moving rapidly through the city’s complex alleys until he neared the warzone, where he then halted his pace and leaped atop a high structure.
“Boom!”
A deafening sound erupted.
Another wall had been blasted apart.
The City Defense Forces attempting to approach the warzone found it hard to get close. The two individuals had elusive movent techniques. Aside from the young man who was breaking a wall at every step, the girl had disappeared long ago.
Even the young man’s speed was hard for them to match as they passively followed the two around the city.
Zuo Fang surveyed the area below; after a wall was blasted apart, his gaze quickly locked onto a dark red figure in the alley.
The figure had just smashed through a wall and then rapidly searched inside a house, indicating that the person he was chasing had likely hidden there.
But this ti, he ca up empty again.
The City Defense Forces also moved in toward the commotion, but this ti, the young man didn’t rush to retreat; instead, he abruptly looked up at Zuo Fang’s position.
Their eyes t.
The youth’s crimson gaze was fixed on the person atop the high building, and then the gleam in his pupils intensified, as if he had found an even more entertaining toy, stirring the dark red Blood Qi within him into excitent.
The next instant, the youth charged toward that direction!
A blur of extre speed left a dark red streak in the air, sloping upward from the ground in the residential area, aiming for the high-rise dozens of ters away!
Boom!
Zuo Fang didn’t dodge or flinch; a golden Protective Shield appeared around him, blocking the youth who arrived in a flash.
A ring of energy undulated on the rooftop, where dark red Blood Qi intertwined with golden Magic, and cracks began to spread across the building beneath their feet.
The youth was repelled by the shield, but he only staggered back a couple of steps before steadying himself on the edge of a wall, not knocked off by the impact of the energy.
The proximity revealed an aura of savagery and Frenzy emanating from the other party, the rich scent of blood almost spilling over.
Zuo Fang, however, was not afraid and looked him up and down with interest, “You look a bit familiar.”
For him to feel familiar with a player even within the Script Space, it must be soone he had seriously studied.
And the person’s aura was so fierce.
So, it was certainly soone he had identified as an adversary in his research, probably soone with a bit of fa in the Script Space; he just didn’t know exactly who it was.
Upon hearing this, the youth rely grinned, “You also seem quite eager to kill—that’s an exciting scent.”
“Starting with killing, aren’t you being too reckless? If you kill the wrong person, the loss can be quite big,” Zuo Fang said with raised eyebrows.
“Won’t kill the wrong person.”
“What if?”
“Won’t kill the wrong person.”
The youth kept repeating this as he extended his tongue to lick his lips, which seed to carry a hint of bloodthirst, making his lips appear even more dangerously conspicuous in the dark.
He bead, “Never kill the wrong person.”
Zuo Fang’s gaze flickered.
If he couldn’t understand after the other party had emphasized it so many tis, he would truly be an idiot.
So, this guy—whether ally or foe, he kills?
Whoosh—
A silver crossbow arrow appeared instantly in Zuo Fang’s hand, the cold light glinting off the arrowhead at the youth barely ten steps away—an attack that would be hard to evade at such a distance.
Yet the youth’s grin remained brilliant, seemingly fearless of the danger before him.
He made no move to defend himself, but instead raised his hand to wipe away the blood at the corner of his lips, his voice crisp with laughter, “Starting with killing now—are you going to do sothing if you end up killing the wrong person?”
Zuo Fang’s mouth twitched: “…”
So, he echoed the other’s tone, emotionlessly stating, “Won’t kill the wrong person.”
The youth crossed his arms, “No need to be so reckless. If you don’t want any information, it would be a big loss.”
Zuo Fang couldn’t help but roll his eyes and put away the crossbow, “What is it you want?”
“The Holy Court sent people to Black Dragon Island, right?”
“…”
Zuo Fang’s eyes flickered slightly, but he remained silent, waiting for the other to continue.
As expected, the youth quickly followed up, “I know where there is a giant dragon.”
