The black-robed man standing behind everyone, seeing this scene, felt his scalp tingle.
They hadn’t anticipated an unexpected incident today, with a troublemaker disrupting their operation. It seed they wouldn’t be able to kill Xu Yourong before them.
So they decisively fled.
In the instant they turned around.
They found a white-haired, green-eyed woman wearing tight clothes with a gun at her waist blocking the alley entrance.
The black-robed man casually brought out a card.
【Desperado – Fenis】
A half-human, half-chanical monster with chanical arms and tal eyes appeared before them.
He held a clumsy but oppressive Gatling gun in his hands, and frantically pulled the trigger at Alice.
The Gatling gun spun a few tis, then emitted a dududu… intense fla spitting sound, extrely harsh, with flashing red light illuminating the entire alley.
The bullets were extrely powerful.
The solid wall was easily penetrated as if it were paper.
The kinetic energy of the bullets did not diminish, continuing to penetrate another wall, gradually turning red-hot as they friction with the air.
Unfortunately, the scene they imagined of Alice being shot full of holes did not occur.
Alice was seen moving extrely fast, surpassing the Desperado’s firing point.
Even when bullets hit her body, they didn’t cause her harm, easily deflecting off the smooth surface of her skin, shooting towards other places.
This ricochet phenonon was often seen on her body.
“This card…”
The black-robed man witnessed everything before him, unable to believe that she could resist bullets with just her physical body. This was clearly no ordinary card.
In a daze, Alice approached the Desperado.
The Desperado wanted to counterattack, raising his chanical arm for a heavy strike.
However, he found that Alice’s palm suddenly emitted a continuously flashing thunder, which then penetrated his body. A deafening thunderous roar burst out from within him.
The Desperado instantly turned into a card.
“Quick, use transfer cards!”
The black-robed man shouted to his subordinates.
He also took out his escape card, a silver-level card with a lightning pattern on the cover.
This was the 【Flash】 that Uncle Paul had used earlier, almost a standard card for every Evil Card Master mber.
“It’s already too late,” Luo Sheng said calmly.
Because in his hand was a glowing card 【Space Lock】.
That’s right, Luo Sheng was using a gold-level card beyond his level, the space lockdown card seized from Black Jack.
Using a card that’s a whole tier above one’s level consus an terrifying amount of spiritual power. This card used up nearly one-tenth of Luo Sheng’s spiritual power.
For him, who was accustod to using exclusive cards, the consumption was undoubtedly enormous.
After all, one use of a gold card consud enough spiritual power for him to control ten epic-level exclusive cards like Alice.
The black-robed man looked at the card in his hand and said with a strange expression: “How did Black Jack’s card end up in your hands?”
“Guess?”
Luo Sheng’s face revealed a smile, like a kind and gentle gentleman.
But the black-robed man felt his scalp tingle. He could sense the terrifying aura emanating from Luo Sheng.
Behind this guy’s smile was hidden an extrely powerful killing intent. If Evil Card Masters were demons, then he was the lord of the abyss, a terror that devours everything.
The black-robed man said in disbelief: “You… couldn’t possibly have killed Black Jack!”
“He wasn’t killed by , but you will be killed by .”
Luo Sheng, like an assassin wearing a clown mask, appeared before everyone’s eyes as he spoke.
An Evil Card Master drew the samurai sword at his waist, continuing to make a futile resistance. He was pressed down by Luo Sheng’s single hand, while molten steel appeared in his other hand.
Under everyone’s surprised gaze, it pierced through the Evil Card Master’s heart.
After the Evil Card Master before him lost his vitality, he randomly selected the next lucky one.
The black-robed man wanted to resist, preparing to bring out his own card for a fight to the death.
The mont he moved, a cold gun barrel was already pressed against the back of his head.
Before he could act, Alice pulled the trigger.
Bang!
With a crisp gunshot, the black-robed man’s spiritual jade shattered, and he fell straight to the ground, the life force in his body rapidly disappearing.
Xu Yourong watched him cleanly and efficiently dispose of these Evil Card Masters.
Her expression was strange, as if it was both within and outside of her expectations, in short, difficult to fully comprehend.
Luo Sheng confiscated their cards, the bodies were placed into virtual space through Dongfang Muqing’s Azure Feather, and all the harvested cards were kept on himself.
As for the dark and polluted cards.
They were packaged in the sa way, to be handed over to the alliance later, because these cards could be exchanged for money, it would be a pity to discard them.
He was quite shrewd.
This battle had brought another windfall.
Although the levels of these Evil Card Masters were not high, with the confiscated cards averaging at silver 2-star, the quantity was substantial. The cards from several Card Masters added up to at least 120 usable cards.
“What do you plan to do now?” Luo Sheng asked Xu Yourong after cleaning up the alley.
“Hmm…”
Xu Yourong fell into deep thought.
She originally didn’t want to think about these things.
Unfortunately, the current situation had reached a point where she had to consider it.
Then she looked towards the gray sky, her eyes carrying a hint of confusion and chaos. Luo Sheng, who had always thought her to be very strong, saw her looking helpless for the first ti.
Even when she was seriously injured and near death due to his attack in the chanical City, she didn’t appear this helpless.
At this mont, Xu Yourong’s deep pupils were glistening with crystalline dew.
Her soft right hand gripped her ash-stained left arm, gently leaning against the exposed red brick earthen wall. Her black outfit had also beco tattered in this incident, leaving behind battle marks.
The long, jet-black assassin’s suit was also damaged, revealing large areas of her snow-white skin, smooth and delicate.
She slowly crouched down, burying her head in her arms.
No sound of crying was heard.
Luo Sheng just quietly stayed by her side, not saying anything.
He didn’t know if she was shocked, or perhaps it was because the previously tense environnt had suddenly disappeared, allowing her to relax completely, thus causing her to exhibit this state.
After nearly 10 minutes.
Xu Yourong finally cald her emotions, but outwardly she didn’t reveal any emotion.
Finally, she looked at him and said: “Don’t you want to take
in? Or like a bad guy, use the life-saving grace to bind
with the ‘repay with my body’ trope?”
Luo Sheng only felt amused, but still asked questioningly, “You still took my previous words of ‘taking care of you’ to heart, but are you willing to ‘repay with your body’?”
He recalled the events that had happened in the chanical City before.
He had verbally promised her that if sothing unexpected happened, he would take care of her.
Unexpectedly, today his words ca true, and he really had to take care of her.
Luo Sheng always felt like he was getting a free bargain. At least, an excellent woman with two spiritual jades and genius potential was, no matter how you look at it, a rare helper.
He had always been considering whether to establish his own force, and now with an additional helper, this matter would proceed much more smoothly.
“I don’t know, I know you won’t abandon .” Xu Yourong extended her fair and lustrous delicate hand.
Luo Sheng grabbed it without hesitation, pulling her up.
“Don’t worry, I will keep my promise. Anyway, I’m not at a loss, being able to see a beauty day and night, at least it’s mood-lifting.” He half-joked to ease the heavy atmosphere.
And he stuffed half of the previously confiscated cards into her arms.
“These are for you. There are many assassin cards inside, consider it your first alimony paynt.”
Xu Yourong nodded at his words.
Then she took out a contract card and handed it to Luo Sheng, “Use this card.”
Hm?
Luo Sheng looked at the card before him in confusion, it was a special blank card.
Xu Yourong continued: “This is a contract card. After we sign the contract, I will be your person… You need a helper, a loyal helper. If we sign the contract, you won’t have to worry about
betraying you.”
“Where did this card co from?”
“You’ll know after signing.”
“Aren’t you afraid that I might do bad things to you?” Luo Sheng asked in return.
Because the general content of this contract card was that after signing, both parties would be bound together, one servant and one master, just short of binding their lives together.
Xu Yourong didn’t answer his question, but instead dripped her blood onto this contract card.
“It’s your turn.”
