Volume 2, Chapter 78 – Annoying Illusions, Might as Well Get Serious

“BOOM!”

A tremendous noise echoed throughout the smoke-filled estate.

Hmm??

I, what is this??

By the time Moande came to his senses, his body had been sent flying and embedded in a wall. Having taken two charged iron fists from the twins at once, both sides of Moande’s face had cracked and fallen off, gradually revealing the soft mechanical structure beneath the artificial skin…

However, rather than concerning himself with the damage to his body, Moande was clearly more concerned with the fact that he had been sent flying.

I, I was just sent flying by two little brats?

Those two children, they’re barely ten years old?! Their power is at most level three!

Although he hadn’t deliberately activated his shield or mobilized spiritual energy to counter those two punches, this body of his was a synthetic incorporating Paradise Manor’s latest technology! Even without defending, a mid-level Divine Martial Realm expert’s strike shouldn’t be able to do this to him!

How could those two girls have such strength!!

What exactly do they eat to grow up like this?

Ailiya being able to block his strike with Divine Martial Realm strength was already incredible enough?

How could these two little ones be even more outrageous?!

T, T…….

Such physical qualities?

Perhaps this precisely proved that these girls contained Primordium within them!

Perhaps only the power of Primordium could enhance physical qualities to such an extent.

—”Yes! That must be it, there’s no mistake! It must be that!”—

Thinking of this, the spiritual energy within Moande erupted once again, pale white flames mixed with spiritual energy instantly spreading in all directions from his body as the center, directly shattering the surrounding walls.

Moande’s legs also once again stood firmly on the ground.

However, just as this First Celestial Augur Knight was about to get serious about dealing with Ailiya and the others, he suddenly discovered that the surrounding environment had undergone a dramatic change.

The burning ruins were gone, replaced by cherry-colored mist limiting his vision.

“Hmm? Another illusion?… Illusions created by mental attribute can be quite troublesome at times… hmm?!!”

Just as Moande was grumbling with displeasure, a silver figure suddenly attacked from in front of him—it was Ailiya, wielding twin swords, and the girl’s blade was pointed directly at Moande’s brow.

“, ……”

With a contemptuous smile, Moande raised his spear, piercing Ailiya’s abdomen.

However, the next moment, Moande frowned because he didn’t feel the impact of hitting his target.

“An illusion?”

Indeed, just as Moande had expected, the figure of Ailiya before him quickly dissipated, turning into countless cherry-colored particles, vanishing without a trace.

And just as Moande was distracted by this, the silver-haired girl suddenly appeared from the side, once again swinging a sword at Moande. After the swing, she disappeared back into the mist.

But this time was clearly different from before, Moande’s right arm was directly cut with a huge gash.

“Hmm?! That one was real?”

Before Moande could figure out the situation, another figure attacked from above.

Although Moande used pale white flames to engulf it, when the flames dissipated, there was nothing inside. Clearly, this time the attacker was again an illusion.

Before Moande could curse, yet another figure attacked from behind.

“Again?!”

Thus, in just a few dozen seconds, Moande had consecutively destroyed more than thirty of Ailiya’s illusions, while Ailiya, using the cover of illusions, continuously attacked Moande’s body. Although most of the time, she was blocked by Moande’s terrifying reaction speed and rich combat experience, Ailiya still successfully cut Moande’s body three times.

Once on the arm, once on the thigh, and once hitting Moande’s neck…

After being knocked away by Moande’s spear once again, Ailiya retreated into the dense fog. But this time, she didn’t immediately continue attacking, but knelt on the ground, continuously gasping for breath.

“Huff, huff, huff…”

Clearly, creating such vast illusory mist and large-scale illusions had consumed too much of Ailiya’s energy. Not only that, Moande’s strike just now… although Ailiya had successfully blocked it with her twin swords, avoiding being pierced through the chest, Moande’s powerful Divine Departure Realm aura had still traveled through the spear’s vibration and hit Ailiya.

Not only fracturing the girl’s right arm, but also causing her to involuntarily cough up blood.

“……”

It hurts qwq…….

My arm, I can’t move it anymore…

Feeling the piercing pain from her right arm, Ailiya couldn’t help but show a pained expression.

Indeed, trying to fight against a Divine Departure Realm was too forced…

However, “Should be able to hold for a while…”

Thinking of this, Ailiya gritted her teeth and no longer attacked Moande, but withdrew from the mist, rushing toward the twins’ direction.

On the other side, after being tricked three times by Ailiya, Moande scanned the surroundings with an extremely vigilant gaze. While destroying Ailiya’s illusions, he was also guarding against the real body that might be hidden within the illusions.

“Hmph, maintaining such large-scale illusions consumes a lot of energy. Let’s see how long you can last, girl!”

Moande said coldly.

However, not long after, after kicking through another of Ailiya’s mirror images, Moande’s brow immediately locked in concern.

“Something’s wrong!”

Twelve doppelgangers already, and that girl still hasn’t attacked?

Could it be…

Using illusions to delay me? Then taking the opportunity to escape with the other two brats?

That’s right, that girl isn’t stupid, after testing so many times and finding she can’t kill me, she would definitely try to escape!

“Cunning creature.”

In an instant, flames of anger continuously burned in Moande’s heart.

Looking around at the surrounding mist, Moande’s eyes narrowed slightly.

Using a synthetic body to fight, what he perhaps hated most were mental attribute ability users.

After all, in this state, he couldn’t rely on his body’s extraordinary sensory abilities to break illusions. Although he could use powerful spiritual energy to shatter the illusion… but now? He could only exert early-stage Divine Departure Realm power, and Ailiya’s illusions were far stronger than Moande had imagined.

Now, it was difficult for him to shatter this illusion.

And even if he shattered it, there was no guarantee he wouldn’t fall into another one later… The power in this body, after such exertion, wasn’t much left…

Moreover, time seemed to be running out.

That Divine-Graced Maiden? Moande didn’t have much hope.

If Xi Xuan dealt with Su and returned, all his efforts would be in vain.

“No, the Primordium is right before my eyes, how can I be held up by such trivial things?! No, absolutely not…”

Biting his lip tightly, Moande’s expression gradually became ferocious and terrifying.

Heh, anyway, the Terran Malevolence is already dead.

No one is watching him.

Might as well…

Thinking of this, Moande grinned ferociously, raising his hand to directly pierce his own chest, activating the teleportation formation hidden within his chest as a final trump card.

—”In that case, I’ll personally educate Lianna’s stupid daughters.”—

Using a synthetic body every day, he was also tired of it.

As Moande activated the device in his chest, an unusual and terrifying aura silently spread within the mist.

However, what Moande didn’t know was… everything he did in the mist was being silently watched by a certain large crimson eye.

At this moment, on a certain ignored pile of ruins nearby, a pink octopus was watching the red-haired man in the mist while munching on a golden apple.

After seeing him activate the teleportation formation, the octopus emitted a smug and punchable laugh.

—”Hehehe~”—

The next moment, following the guidance of the plan, the pink octopus raised a tentacl

e, quietly drawing a circle behind itself.

Another spatial rift silently opened…
