Chapter 1019: Chapter 772: Can’t Help It, You’re Too Fast (Part 2)
With Reiger’s strength, even if he causes trouble on the territory of the Istar Clan, he can at least protect himself, without worrying about getting into trouble.
Even if the Istar Clan has the trump card of "Level Ascension," with their strength, they couldn’t possibly deal with Reiger of today.
On the contrary, if the Freyja Clan encounters Reiger and a conflict arises, Reiger’s situation becomes more dangerous.
Lv.8 one person.
Lv.7 one person.
Lv.6 two people.
Lv.5 four people.
A total of eight first-level adventurers, including [Mighty Warrior] Ota, who has stepped into a new realm. Even for Reiger, facing this group would be quite challenging, wouldn’t it?
As for peacefully coexisting... that’s impossible.
Both sides are rival factions. Since they’ve met, it’s impossible not to have a conflict.
If the conflict turns into a struggle, Reiger might really be in danger.
Understanding this, Finn immediately made a decision.
"There’s no other way, send someone to assist Reiger."
Upon hearing this, Grace and Revilia nodded.
"Who should we send?" Revilia asked, "Ais, Bert, and Angel are still in the underground city, and among the clan’s leaders, only us three, Theona, Theone, and Raul are left."
"I’ll make a trip." Grace stood up and said, "Since [Mighty Warrior] is over there, sending those few youngsters might not be enough to hold the ground."
"Then you go, and take Theona and Theone with you," Finn decisively said, "With the three of you assisting Reiger, I believe Ota won’t dare to act recklessly."
"Be careful." Revilia solemnly said, "Ota and Allen have already leveled up, so even with Reiger, there’s still a possibility of encountering danger."
"Don’t worry." Grace grinned and said, "Just right, I also want to test the strength of those two now."
After speaking, Grace left the office.
Soon after, with Grace, Theona, and Theone leading, a group of members with a minimum level of Lv.4 gathered at the entrance of the clan’s headquarters.
"Set off!"
Fully armed, Grace commanded, and the group immediately rushed out towards Fengyue Street.
...
Flames still surrounded the street, accompanied by black smoke, creating a scene of destruction.
The once bustling Fengyue Street has now fully turned into a sea of fire under the fierce attack from the Freyja Clan, becoming ruins, with blazing fires and scattered rubble everywhere. The sight of broken walls and ruins was everywhere, while screams and wails continued to wreak havoc here.
Adventurers belonging to the Freyja Clan were still faithfully carrying out the orders of the main god, exterminating anyone obstructing them from destroying Fengyue Street.
Especially for those combat prostitutes, even if they tried to escape, the Freyja Clan’s adventurers wouldn’t allow it, relentlessly catching up to those combat prostitutes one after another and mercilessly cutting them down.
One-sided ravaging continued, allowing the taste of blood and fire to spread everywhere.
"Boom!!!"
Suddenly, a roar sounded.
That was the sound of a building collapsing.
It wasn’t detonated by the Freyja Clan’s magic guide using magic but was knocked down by two figures fiercely battling.
Two figures transformed into streaks of light shot in from afar, fiercely battling while knocking down buildings along the way, revealing their forms amidst the thunderous sound and billowing dust as they arrived on the street.
"What, what is that...?!"
"It’s Deputy Commander Allen!"
"Is someone fighting with Deputy Commander Allen?"
"It’s him...!"
Freyja Clan adventurers, who were one-sidedly ravaging the Istar Clan’s members, were first shocked in their hearts, then stared in astonishment at the two figures revealing their full appearance.
They charged out from the sea of flames, knocked flying the ruins, and upon entering the street, immediately charged at each other. One had a cold expression, the other exuded killing intent, and they struck at each other without hesitation with their weapons.
Instantly, a shower of sword light and silver spear shadows appeared.
"Clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang...!"
Amidst the fierce sound of clashes, the crystal long sword and silver long spear sliced through the air, drawing out countless cold arcs and trajectories, fiercely colliding in the air.
Under that rapid assault, the crystal sword blurred unrecognizable, while the silver spear transformed into a flash, weaving a storm-like attack, striking against each other and bouncing apart, causing sparks to scatter endlessly.
"[Limit Breaker]! You little...!"
Allen, wielding his spear like a flash, attacking so fast that the gunshot couldn’t be seen, was furious at his assault not hitting once, the spear tip repeatedly parried and deflected by Reiger—his expression was one of frustration.
Known as "The City’s Fastest" adventurer, both in movement and attack speed, Allen was the best in Orario, often piercing enemies before they even saw his spear tip’s trajectory. Never had he returned empty-handed like this before.
Previously, except for Ota who deployed "Complete Defense," no one could counter his assault so thoroughly.
Now, a newcomer adventurer once despised by his past self was flawlessly blocking his attacks, inciting immense anger in Allen.
"Don’t rush."
Reiger, whose eyes sparkled with transparent light, calmly spoke.
"We’re just getting started. If you’re angry now, you’ll be furious later."
Saying this, Reiger wielded the Fool’s Sword with a speed rivaling Allen’s, slashing a vast array of sword light, countering Allen’s flashing spear attacks, deflecting and parrying them.
"Wind Breathing·Sixth Form·Black Wind Smoke!"
Suddenly, Reiger unleashed a wind-based slash, allowing the slash to merge with diffusing sword Qi, sweeping towards Allen.
"Boom!"
Under the sharp invisible slashes, all of Allen’s flashing spear attacks were blown away.
The sharp slashes flew out swiftly, slicing towards Allen, seemingly eager to split the cat-man youth in two.
"Hmph!"
Despite his grim expression, Allen moved smoothly, leaping to narrowly evade the incoming slash like a phantom.
"Swish——swish——swish——swish——swish——"
The cat-man spearman demonstrated his speed to the fullest around Reiger, trailing countless afterimages as if splitting into numerous clones, astonishingly swift.
Before long, the silver spear transformed into countless flashes, persistently stabbing towards Reiger, intending to pierce him with countless holes.
"Indeed, the city’s fastest."
Reiger squinted his eyes shimmering with translucent light, altered his breathing, and whirled the Fool’s Sword in all directions.
"Moon Breathing·Five Forms·Moon Essence Disaster Vortex!"
The massive vortex-like blade wind rose from Reiger’s body.
"Clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang clang...!"
The penetrating flashing gunshots were all deflected by the vortex-like blade wind, even knocking Allen—advancing towards Reiger’s rear—off-track with the circular moon blade in the slash trajectory, flipping over a pile of rubble, causing fragments to fly up.
"Always using these useless techniques...!"
Allen’s face twisted, fists tightened on the silver spear.
This had been yet another failed attempt to charge forward. The conceited cat-man youth felt a heavy burden from battling Reiger, his sharp eyes revealing a trace of apprehension.
"Can’t be helped, you’re too fast."
Reiger generously offered this commendation.
He too felt challenged by Allen’s extraordinary speed.
