Chapter 443: Chapter 0443: Scheming (Third Update Request for Subscription)
Although they were ready to take action, both of these legendary figures were not planning to wage war directly in the city area.
It’s hard to determine life or death between legends, but those mortals couldn’t bear it.
If they really started fighting in the bustling area, perhaps thousands or even tens of thousands of ordinary people would be killed or injured.
The consequences of this would lead to a full-scale manhunt by the Chris Empire, which ordinary Fifth Level people simply could not afford.
Therefore, Su Lu and Monahan, both tacitly moved to the outskirts.
“[Raven Servant]… an unfamiliar profession but… there seems to be some secret hidden within.”
Su Lu was staring at Monahan Cro across from him.
The expression of this legendary professional was solemn, waving a black crow magic wand in his hand.
He could feel that the presence of the dark element around him suddenly increased.
‘Boring… It’s truly boring…’
Su Lu curled his lips, casually waving his hand.
The Dark Domain opened, and the elemental entities within a hundred meters seemed like small soldiers meeting their general, all belonging to his domain.
That depressing feeling disappeared instantly.
“Mythic Domain? No… a simplified version?” Monahan across from him looked grim, knowing that this opponent was not only proficient in dark magic, but his understanding of the origin of darkness was far beyond him.
This mastery over the surrounding elements was almost equivalent to the Mythic Domain.
Under such unfair conditions, if both sides competed in magic, his power would have been directly weakened several times, while any dark magic cast by his opponent would be amplified!
Before the battle began, he was almost defeated!
Monahan gritted his teeth and suddenly uttered a string of characters in Ancient Hebrew:
“When darkness spreads across the sky, the Dark Raven’s feathers shall cover the world, on the bones and death, rot, and decay, the most splendid flowers will bloom…”
He read the incantation with a varied rhythm, as if reciting a poem.
But when Su Lu heard it, it was completely different.
His inspiration was greatly touched.
In Su Lu’s eyes, the sky suddenly darkened, and raven feathers fell one by one.
He saw the decay of the earth, the death of human and animal life, revealing a large number of bones.
And upon these bones, one by one, brightly colored flowers began to bloom…
At a crucial moment.
At the center of his brow, a deep purple corona emerged between reality and illusion, and the flame patterns around it seemed to be trembling continuously.
“Illusion Technique?”
Su Lu’s eyes regained their clarity, staring at Monahan in front of him: “So, your profession is not merely about using dark magic, but also about wielding illusion techniques?”
Thinking back to everything he had seen before, he already had some guesses.
This Cro family was not simple, the path of the [Raven Servant], gave him a hint of divine essence.
“I lost…” Monahan chuckled bitterly, his illusion was broken, his spirit was severely rebounded, and now his face was pale: “Since I lost, tell me your requirement.”
Legendary professionals rarely have fatal fights, they often exchange pointers, and the winner always puts forward conditions to the loser, which is the norm.
“This time, it was entirely the fault of your family’s descendants.”
Su Lu stood with his hands behind his back: “He broke the rules of the Stone Mason Guild, rashly attempted to investigate a customer’s privacy, and even tried to attack us, so I killed him.”
In fact, this could have been explained from the beginning, but it would definitely not have been as effective as it is now.
Some people, unless you beat them into submission, will just not listen to you properly.
This is even truer in the mystical side, because most professionals are highly emotional.
“If that is the case, the Kro family was the first to offend, we are willing to offer you satisfactory compensation.”
Monahan took a deep breath.
Even if his family had a justified reason, there wouldn’t be any benefits if they lost the fight.
But now that Su Lu was saying this, he has already decided to investigate this matter thoroughly once he gets back.
“No need for compensation, he has already paid the price with his life… I just hope that there won’t be a second time.”
Su Lu’s figure was surrounded by black flames, streaking across the sky like a meteor.
“Erosion Fire?”
Monahan looked at the black trajectory, murmuring to himself: “Is he the [Erosion Mage]? He admitted before that he was an unrecognized legend? Impossible…”
A fifth-level professional could not possibly remain unknown.
However, this exact thing has just happened!
“Zorro!”
Monahan memorized this name carefully, his figure slowly disappeared.
…
On the outskirts, in a carriage.
Rod was sitting in the driver’s position, still driving normally.
Suddenly, he sensed that there was an extra person in the carriage behind him.
“I’m back, and the situation has been resolved.”
Su Lu opened the window, chuckled: “After this time, anyone who is interested and investigates a little will know that you have a Fifth Level professional behind you, which will make many things easier.”
“Has your [Wandering Mage] profession been exposed?”
Rod was a bit worried.
He knew about the attention that some forces paid to high-level Spirit World professionals.
“No, I’m just an [Erosion Mage]!”
Su Lu was grinning brightly.
Once this incident is resolved, he’ll leave this world once again and continue his journey.
The appearance of the Federation Guardian and the Chris Empire put a bit of pressure on him.
With the continuous intensification of the Spirit Tide revival, the emergence of Sixth Level professionals is only a matter of time.
Even in its peak period, it is not impossible for divine presences to walk the earth!
He still lacks enough power to influence the world.
‘As soon as I get back, I’ll begin a new journey, complete the Sacrificial Ceremony of the Spirit, and break through to the Sixth Level…’
‘And in order to break the shackles of the gods, I need to start planning for the Seventh Level profession…’
‘Shewinado’s gift will soon come in handy!’
As Su Lu continuously made plans in his mind, he looked at his attribute column:
[Dark Domain LV1 → LV4]
“This way, the skills and passives needed for leveling up to the Sixth Level are fulfilled.”
He next placed his focus on his own attributes.
Accompanied by the consumption of a large number of experience points, his strength slowly increased, and ultimately stopped at 20.0 points.
“Phew…”
Su Lu felt his muscles twitching, and yet they seemed to become stronger, and it was described as iron-like bones, he couldn’t help taking a satisfied sigh: “Judging from this level, spending about 200,000 more experience points will push the attributes to the Six-Level requirement… There is no rush for this, I can take it slow, a major increase all at once, ignoring whether or not the body can handle it, even I can’t precisely control the power.”
“With all of that prepared, the only thing left is the Sacrificial Ceremony of the Spirit.”
He looked at the landscape outside the window, his expression showing some determination.
Vaguely, Su Lu already had a premonition.
Once the step towards the Sixth Level is taken, there’s no turning back.
If he can’t level up quickly, what awaits him is a fearsome backlash!
