Chapter 131 Retrieving the Magic Core
Chapter 131 Retrieving the Magic Core
As soon as he finished speaking, the Shadow of Death, who was originally standing next to Jack, turned into a black shadow and attacked quickly.
This speed surprised Lin Li, but he was just a little surprised that a dark type could have such speed.
Lin Li also turned into a purple shadow, and his speed was not slow at all. The two of them quickly fought each other.
This time it was Shadow of Death who was surprised, exclaiming, "You are actually a legend."
Lin Li looked at the shadow of death and his expression became more serious.
The opponent's strength was definitely legendary. No wonder he just vomited blood after being hit by his chain lightning.
What a pity! I should have hidden the sword under the quilt and let him get chilled to the bone as soon as I came up.
Lin Li saw that he was always doing sneaky things, such as prying windows, opening locks, and setting off smoke. He thought that the person Jack was looking for this time was not very powerful. He didn't expect that he was actually a legend.
Jack put on a fire shield while the two were fighting. Hearing Death Shadow's exclamation, he was also very surprised. He felt that a fire shield might not be enough, so he put on a layer of rock armor.
I thought that with the Shadow of Death and my own magic support, I would be able to defeat a master of both combat and magic. You have to know that legends are legends.
But no one would have expected that Lin Li was already a legendary warrior at his age.
No wonder those Black Wolf guys died so cleanly.
Jack had not fought with anyone since he became the store manager in Carter. But he had not lost his combat experience from his youth. After putting up a shield for himself, he immediately gave assistance to the Shadow of Death. His movements were quite swift.
Lin Li clenched his right hand, condensing the lightning element into a long sword. He summoned the Thunder Dragon to protect his body and activated the Thunder Transformation. He rushed directly towards Jack.
In this situation, of course, the mage should be killed first. Although the Shadow of Death is a bit stupid, its combat ability is not low, and its speed is not much slower than Lin Li.
With the help of magic, Jack can also be protected.
Although Lin Li's Thunder Transformation could not directly increase his strength by one level like before, it still suppressed the Shadow of Death so much that he had no strength to fight back and could only passively defend.
Even though the Shadow of Death had Jack's magic assistance, he was still far behind Lin Li in pure strength.
His right hand was fighting with the Shadow of Death with sword, while his left hand was not idle either, fighting with Jack with magic.
The room is too small. It's a bit cramped.
By now, all the furniture in the room had been destroyed. The sound of fighting had spread. Other people in the hotel were awakened from their dreams and ran out one after another.
Finally, the wall could not bear the weight anymore and a large piece of it was blown away with a loud bang. I don’t know if it hit the people who had just run away.
Jack and Shadow of Death saw a hole in the wall and fought while retreating towards the gap.
At this moment, neither of them had the intention to kill Lin Li, and being able to leave safely was already all that was fine.
Jack, in particular, had already regretted his greed. He knew that the person who could produce the dual-element legendary magic core was somewhat extraordinary, but looking at the age of the person on the other side, it was probably an accidental acquisition. Since he was going to sell it, it naturally couldn't be someone from a big family.
But he didn't understand how he could meet a rare genius who was good at both combat and magic. Such people were rare in the Western Continent, not to mention the Aojin Empire and the Yunyi Empire. The key point was that his strength was so strong that he had already broken through to the legendary level at such a young age. It was a bit too much to say that he was not simple.
Shadow of Death also regretted that he should not have accepted this order. He wanted to kill a young man for 4000 gold. Isn't this a pie in the sky, giving money to himself? Who would have thought that he would be dealing with a legend who practiced both combat and magic? This business was a big loss. The starting price for a legendary target was gold.
Lin Li naturally understood the intention of the two to retreat. Although he had been in an advantageous position and suppressed the other party, he could not defeat them for a while. The main reason was that the store manager had not spared any attack magic since he had helped the assassin. He used all shield spells, and his main focus was defense. Although his casting speed was not as fast as Lin Li's, he had a lot of scrolls.
The moment the two jumped out of the room, Jack shouted, "Keep me safe, 1 gold. As long as we hold on until the city guards arrive, we'll be safe."
This sentence made the Shadow of Death stay. As a killer, if he missed the target, he would definitely not stay if he could retreat.
As for the employer's life? Sorry, it is neither within the scope of the task nor the scope of the profession.
I originally came here alone, why did you have to come along?
However, Shadow of Death thought that the 1 gold was still worth it. This was the royal city, and the city guards were very responsive. They would be there in no time.
All three of them fell on the street. Lin Li did not attack directly. Instead, he looked at the store manager and said with a smile: "Manager, why don't you return the magic core to me? I don't need your life."
"Hmph, the city guards will be here soon, you better think about how to escape."
"In that case, I will take your life."
Lin Li made a sprinting gesture. Then he shouted: "Thunder!"
The Shadow of Death and Jack were originally staring at Lin Li intently, and when they saw Lin Li making a sprinting gesture, they were already prepared for defense.
But they didn't expect Lin Li to be so fast. Lightning flashed in their eyes, and Lin Li was gone.
By the time Jack reacted, he had been knocked into the air, and the shield on his body had naturally been broken. He didn't know where he was injured, but he knew that his whole body was in pain. He quickly activated the scroll of the flame shield in his left hand.
As soon as the scroll was activated, there was a bang, the shield shattered again, and he was smashed directly to the ground. The last thing he saw was a figure like thunder.
Lin Li took the ring and staff from the store manager's hand, and checked carefully to make sure nothing was missing. He threw a fireball at the body.
After checking the contents of the ring, the magic core was indeed inside. This was a freebie. Lin Li smiled and left quickly.
As for the Shadow of Death, although this killer is a bit stupid, Lin Li admits that he is indeed capable.
The moment he launched the thunder, he merged directly into the darkness, then activated the legendary skill Shadow Shuttle and disappeared from Lin Li's sight.
Lin Li did not chase after him, mainly because he could not find any trace of him.
The shadow of death was hiding in Lin Li's room. His heart was beating wildly. He was terrified. "What speed is this? My eyes can't keep up. Fortunately, the other party's target was not me. Otherwise, I would be the one to die."
The shadow of death did not dare to move. After Lin Li had walked for a long time, the fear completely subsided. He said to himself: "Fortunately, I ran decisively."
"It turns out that they are right to ask for a 50% deposit first. I have to find two very gentle girls to help me relieve the pressure."
"Well, it's decided. I won't take any orders this month."
