Chapter 24
Perhaps there is a specific mechanism in place, but no silver-tier weapons have been discovered yet. It is also possible they simply haven't been revealed; these people are deeply hidden and incredibly cunning. The territory is exceptionally bustling today; with planting nearly complete in a day or two, I can finally give everyone a break.
(PS: Regarding the mention of street racing in the previous chapter, no racing, thank you. I am not the person I used to be; that racing skill was just a spur-of-the-moment addition.)
The words were cut short just as they were spoken. The mysterious light suddenly shivered, transforming into a whirlwind that surged forward. The dissipating force of the fist and the residual heat in the air were instantly swept back, swallowed entirely into the altar’s glow.
On the card was an image of a mirror, surrounded by skeletons kneeling on the ground, all performing a gesture of devout worship toward the glass.
The Desolate Seal is a formidable artifact. Previously, Lu Fan could toy with a Martial Venerable using only simple hand seals, leaving the opponent completely helpless. Now, having formed a rune array, its power is at least ten times greater.
The Ancient God refined the cards back and forth, eventually spreading them all out on the bar counter to piece them together into a single image.
The Endless City has existed since the distant past, and its bizarre lifeforms have always survived by consuming souls.
Lin Mu watched their retreating backs, pondered for a moment, then turned his vehicle around and headed toward the monitoring center.
This was not the world of the dead, so Liu Ping felt safe enough to step forward and turn the corpse over for a closer inspection.
Before Sara could even react, the Samadhi True Fire Sword pierced through her helmet and straight through her skull.
Chu Mingqiu sighed inwardly. Even someone like Aunt Tian considered it a matter of course: landlords were naturally scum, and in the city, they were capitalistic enemies.
There is no conflict between the Undying attribute and the Steel attribute. Although the probability of a secondary absorption is greatly reduced, it does not mean it cannot succeed. If he were to succeed, he wouldn't be in such dire straits when encountering dangerous lifeforms in the future.
"Wait, wait! Li Jingyun, do you hear me?!" Pandora called out to Li Jingyun and the others repeatedly, but naturally, there was no response.
Chu Kuanyuan hadn't noticed at first, but gradually he felt something was amiss. The soft, delicate body pressed against him, and a faint, lingering fragrance wafted over, causing his heart to flutter. Chu Kuanyuan began to lose his composure.
Chu Mingqiu gestured toward the playground, where a stirring march was playing. The teacher was conducting the students in their movements, signaling when to raise their hands in cheers and when to shout slogans.
As the office door opened, Zhang Junkai, the core leader of the 3D technical team, walked in.
"Stop doing these useless things! Who told you to cover for me?" Accelerator kicked the light disc protecting him, and the Mirror immediately felt he had lost control over that disc.
The resistance was quickly crushed. As the army pushed forward, the players on the island had not yet realized what was happening before they were caught off guard and overwhelmed by the sudden onslaught of NPC troops.
How this guy managed to reach the A-list and become a tabloid king, I don't know whether to call it good luck or praise him for being truly capable.
Qiu Jingye narrowed her eyes. It had always been like this; after all these years, she was married as she had wished. Yet, if that person was mentioned, her pupils would still lose their focus.
"You have come." Wang Di’s face was young and handsome. Clad in imperial robes, a boundless imperial aura permeated the surroundings, and the yellow-gold aura of an emperor swirled around him, exuding a terrifying presence.
Just then, dense gunfire erupted from the cave outside. The echo in the cavern was immense, and since our guns lacked silencers, the noise was deafening; my head was buzzing incessantly.
Tan Daqing, who had been eavesdropping outside the door, quickly left the head nurse's office and hid in a nearby restroom.
At this moment, Ye Shang and Madam Su had already hurriedly left their seats and approached Su Fengnuan, both gazing at her.
"Hmph, you can't be sure about that. After all, he's not your father." Cao Jingjing spoke whatever came to mind without much thought. She had been spoiled and arrogant for too long; with such a father, everyone gave her some face, and the consequence was a sharp decline in her intelligence and an inability to filter her words.
Thus, when Shi Aiguo asked Ding Changsheng to state his position, he was basically certain that after meeting with Qin Zhenbang, Shi Aiguo had quietly changed his mind. Unless something unexpected happened, Shi Aiguo would shift to supporting the project to be located in Huzhou.
"Kui"—this name was being pulled deeper into the consciousness of the Demon of Drought. The hazy impression of his son acted like shackles, binding his demonic nature tightly. He was gradually being tamed by Ran Tianyou's magical power, becoming able to fully comprehend and obey his commands.
Although she had just accepted the fact that Teacher Dong Muya and Ouyang Hongye had long known each other, hearing him call her "Muya" so affectionately still caught Xia Qiu by surprise. She became even more certain that their relationship was extraordinary.
"Don't move, let me check your physical condition again." Lin Yu had no choice but to use this tactic, and Liu Xiaofei finally quieted down.
Upon hearing this, Wei Mingxu slightly raised his head to look at Wei Yanxian, who sat in the high seat. But after only a moment, Wei Mingxu lowered his head again, looking at the blood staining the soles of his boots. In the dim light, the blood did not look red, but black.
After speaking, Tu Yuan cast a glance at Haruhi Yun, the culprit who had caused him to be hit by the ball.
Coach Kawano signaled instructions to Endo with hand gestures, but it seemed these secret signals had no practical effect.
"I don't know if you heard the time I mentioned; his injury also occurred five thousand years ago," Mu Jiu said.
Lin Zhixuan naturally knew the bitterness of losing her child in the womb, and the despair of learning she could never conceive again. She used to talk about wanting to give Run-ge'er a little sister, hoping she would be as lively as Nine-Jie'er.
As soon as the words fell, Ba Quan made a gesture, and five gunshots rang in Li Wudao’s ears. Immediately after, five high-explosive armor-piercing rounds whistled toward him.
Su Tiecheng was a mid-stage Qi Refining cultivator whose spiritual sense could extend outside his body. Upon entering, he naturally scanned the room with his sense, confirming that aside from the Huang father and son and a few servants standing by to await orders, there were no other living beings. The Huang family was indeed caught off guard, so he launched his attack.
"Dad, why would you say that?" Lu Qinghe tried to act spoiled toward Lu Qiang, but one glare from her father silenced her, and she dared not argue further.
