Chapter 70: Roland City’s Terrifying Night (Part 1)

Lord Kagaule was the City Lord of Roland City. He was not an old aristocrat of Montokas, and even his title of Lord was an honorary title awarded to him by the Alliance of Saints.

But he still became the absolute Lord of Roland City. Here, no one dared to defy his Will, and he held the power of life and death over everyone in the city.

Only because he, Lord Kagaule, was a noble Mage, which was what the Galaxy Star Alliance called an Energy Controller!

The residents of Roland City should be considered quite lucky, because Lord Kagaule was not a tyrannical lord. On the contrary, he was a benevolent monarch in Roland City.

In every romantic and mysterious Mokasha Month, the Lord would hold a grand ball in his castle, inviting famous scholars, warriors, and wealthy people in the city to attend.

Today was no exception. Under the bright moonlight of Mokasha, people gathered happily, singing and dancing.

But there was something different about today. A distinguished guest came to this ball, and that was the Archmage, Saint Anthony.

Kagaule respected Saint Anthony greatly, not only because of his status as an Archmage, but also because this old man was his mentor.

The two distinguished figures only showed their faces briefly in the ballroom on the first floor. After accepting the greetings and respects from various guests, they disappeared at the stairway on the second floor. That above was the City Lord’s private space, and no one dared to intrude.

“Lord Saint Anthony, my mentor, I feel very honored that you can come to Roland City personally.” Kagaule’s tone was a bit excited. He had been an independent Mage for nearly ten years, but his reverence and love for this wise old man had not diminished at all.

“Kagaule, my disciple, I am very happy to see that while you walk alone on the path of a Mage, you have not lost your passionate and honest nature of the past. I am preparing to go to the City of Saints this time, and when passing by here, I thought I would visit my favorite disciple.”

The current Saint Anthony looked completely like a kind old man, but Kagaule knew how terrifying he was. This mentor, who was tall and had a peaceful face, had a reputation that spread throughout the Main Plane back in the day. Even in the Capital of Hell, people respected the name Anthony.

This old man, in less than a hundred years after becoming an independent Mage, added the word “Saint” before his name, becoming a world-famous Saint!

Therefore, after hearing these words, Kagaule felt extremely flattered. He quickly stood up and bowed to express his thanks.

“There is no need for such formality, my disciple. Sit down. I came here mainly to remind you! The disturbance of the Abyss is becoming more and more intense. In the coming period, many Demon creatures will appear in the Main Plane. I hope you can be vigilant.”

“Mentor, what is going on?”

“I am not very clear about the reason. Perhaps Main God Phobos will send down a clear decree one day, but not now. Alright, I am tired. You don’t need to accompany me anymore, Kagaule.”

“Yes, Mentor. Please rest well. I will take my leave now.” Kagaule respectfully exited the Archmage’s room and walked towards his study.

The ball in the hall on the first floor was still at its peak stage. People were carnivaling to their hearts’ content, but on the second floor, after being blocked by layers of walls, the sound became faint, as if it were in another world.

As the City Lord, Kagaule did not have so much time to party with people. He still had many government affairs to deal with.

He pushed open the door of the study, walked into the room as usual, walked to the seat facing the window, sat down directly, and began to read the documents submitted today.

Just like usual!

In the shadows of the study, Lin Lei restrained the aura all over his body. He slowly but firmly gripped the dagger in his hand. His heart began to beat slowly, like a volcano accumulating strength, ready to erupt.

“Oh!” The ball downstairs reached a climax. People cheered heartily. The noise was so loud that Kagaule, who had been quietly processing documents, also frowned.

Now! Lin Lei suddenly erupted. The cold killing intent and unmatched power vented out, but strangely, it was silent. Only the rushing air current was chasing the figure of Lin Lei who instantly moved.

Just when Lin Lei’s dagger was about to touch Kagaule’s back, an Energy Shield, far more concentrated and thick than Musalo’s, instantly burst out from the body of this Energy Controller, and his whole person also moved forward quickly.

The desk suffered disaster immediately. It was directly turned into powder and dust by the turbulent energy flow surrounding Kagaule’s body. But Kagaule felt that the cold, needle-like killing intent behind him did not go away. Instead, it followed him like a shadow.

The speed was so fast that he had no other response measures except to continue running forward.

“Crash!” The window of the study was broken. The crystal glass fragments poured down, looking exceptionally beautiful.

But the two people who had already moved the battlefield to mid-air had no intention of admiring this scene at all. The two were still entangled in mid-air.

The ball guests in the castle garden all forgot to exclaim. They all opened their mouths wide and looked at the scene in the sky in disbelief.

In mid-air, a man glowing with a rich light floated there. He was wielding a chain of light in his hand. Surrounding him was a black shadow. The speed of this shadow was so fast that it was impossible to see the specific shape!

The chain of light of that figure was very long, and its power was also strangely great. Any object touched by the end of the chain was directly vaporized, but it could not cause any harm to the black shadow at all. Or, to be more precise, these attacks were all dodged by the black shadow!

The battle in the air lasted less than 3 seconds, but it felt like a century. The shining figure suddenly fell from mid-air, while the black shadow stepped on that figure, borrowed force to jump in mid-air, and went far beyond the crape myrtle flower wall of the castle, disappearing from sight.

“Oh God. It is Lord Kagaule! Not good! The Lord has been assassinated!” A guest who was the first to see the face of the person who fell to the ground screamed out.

At this time, Kagaule no longer had the noble demeanor he had at the ball. His face was purple and black, his eyes bulged out, and purple-black blood flowed from the corners of his mouth, nostrils, and ear holes. A dagger was deeply inserted into the back of his neck, going all the way to the hilt!

Looking at this scene, Kagaule was already completely dead while in mid-air.

“Make way, make way, Archmage Saint Anthony is here, quiet!” Someone shouted loudly.

The crowd quieted down immediately. Everyone watched this white-bearded old man walk over. Everyone knew that Kagaule was the direct disciple of Saint Anthony.

The old man’s face was ashen. He walked to Kagaule’s body and touched the dagger hilt with his hand. It carried an aura completely different from this world.

Saint Anthony was very familiar with this aura. This was the Demon aura from the Abyss!

Damn it! He was still careless. His negligence led to the death of his disciple. Saint Anthony was extremely angry, and bright electric arcs began to flash around his body.

He pulled out the dagger from the back of Kagaule’s neck, held it in his hand, and raised his other hand high. A palpitating mysterious aura spread out and quickly extended to the entire Roland City.

“Curse! I Curse all Demons in Roland City! They will be tortured by pain while alive, and their souls will surely shatter after death!”

…

Lin Lei, who was running at high speed in the city, suddenly shivered, and a burst of pain came from his chest! At the same time, the information flow of the System surged in wildly.

“The Host has encountered an Energy Dimension entanglement attack.

Attack Energy is:

The Dimension is the First Energy Dimension: Disintegration, the Second Energy Dimension: Aggregation, the Fourth Energy Dimension: Order.

The attack effect is to torture the spirit of the attacked by constantly destroying and repairing the attacked’s body until the attacked’s mental imprint shatters!

The System has suppressed the attack. To completely remove it, the Host needs to pay 10 points of Level 3 Strengthening authority and 5% of Level 3 Strengthening reserves.

Do you want to completely remove the attack?”

“Remove it, my ass! Suppress it for me first!”

Damn, who did he provoke? To be able to launch such a terrifying attack? And until now, Lin Lei didn’t even know who attacked him!

10 points of Level 3 Strengthening authority. He had just killed Kagaule and got an A-grade evaluation. The total Level 3 Strengthening authority was only 41 points. If he removed it, this trip would be in vain, and he would also have to pay 5% of the Level 3 Strengthening reserves.

So Lin Lei was not in a hurry to remove the attack. He wanted to return to the Star Alliance station to seek help to see if the Watcher Civilization could solve this problem for him.

The pain in his chest was gone now. Lin Lei took a deep breath and ran towards the hotel where Yan Siyu lived, preparing to leave the city quickly, teleport back to the Sky Shuttle, and immediately return to the Star Alliance!
