"Aaaaaahh..."
A shrill scream echoed through the night sky. The three-sword man and the gaunt man, who were fighting, turned their heads at the same time to look in the direction of the female archer, and a look of horror appeared in their eyes!
There...is another enemy there?!
Rooftop.
The female archer's eyes had completely turned black. She knelt on the ground in agony, her hands uncontrollably tearing at her scalp, as if trying to expel something from her mind.
Blood trickled down from her head. She opened her mouth wide and vomited a large amount of black blood. Her body darkened at a visible speed.
"Aaaaaah... What... What did you do?!"
She clutched her head in anguish, then suddenly looked up at Lin Qiye and let out a roar!
Lin Qiye stared at the female archer's miserable state, his brows furrowing slightly as he reached out and touched his chin.
"The Darkest Corruption is very ineffective against intelligent beings... The higher the intelligence, the harder it is to corrupt. At my current level, I can only control cats and dogs at most; its effect on humans is quite limited..."
Just then, a sharp light suddenly flashed in the female archer's eyes, and her surging spiritual power erupted, causing the darkness in her eyes to recede like a tide!
She stood up abruptly, then staggered and fell backward.
Lin Qiye groaned and took several steps back, holding his forehead with his hand and frowning deeply.
"Mental strength can break free from the erosion of darkness. The higher the opponent's realm, the greater the backlash against me. She must also have the mental strength of the 'Pool' realm, otherwise that attack just now would have knocked me unconscious..."
"It seems we cannot rashly use the Darkest Corruption technique on people to control their minds."
The female archer fell straight down from the roof, but as a former member of the Night's Watch, even though she was seriously injured, she was still agile!
With lightning speed, she pulled an arrow from her quiver and pierced the solid wall, abruptly slowing her descent!
Then, relying on the inertia generated by the natural swing of his body, he rolled twice on the lawn at the bottom of the building, barely managed to stand up, and quickly drew his bow and nocked an arrow.
Whoosh—!
An arrow shot out, carrying terrifying power, and accurately flashed towards the spot where Lin Qiye was standing!
Lin Qiye raised his eyebrows slightly, as if he had completely predicted the trajectory of the arrow. He gently tilted his head to the side, and the arrow grazed his hair and passed by his ear, but failed to harm him in the slightest.
The female archer was completely dumbfounded.
Lin Qiye held the black box in one hand and gently pressed his top hat on his head with the other. The wind blew against the corner of his clothes, and a faint smile appeared on his lips.
He took a step forward and gently jumped off the roof.
Unlike the female archer, he didn't use anything to slow his descent. Instead, he free-fell, his toes lightly touching the building walls a few times. Like a midnight ghost, he floated lightly across the six-story distance and landed steadily on the ground.
This series of movements was as smooth as flowing water, like a black cat jumping down from a cabinet at home, elegant and effortless.
This is the [Starry Night Dancer] of the "Pool" Realm.
"Finally... I can jump off the building now." Lin Qiye thought of the embarrassing scene when he had to run down the stairs to catch the Nanta Snake Demon at school that day, and laughed self-deprecatingly.
"Are you... a human or a ghost?!" The female archer's scalp tingled at the sight, and without saying a word, she turned and ran into the winding, complicated street behind her.
As he ran, he reached into his quiver to take an arrow, nocked it, and turned to shoot it at Lin Qiye with incredibly fluid movements.
Whoosh whoosh!!
Several arrows flew out in succession, but Lin Qiye calmly dodged them, like a leisurely stroller, easily avoiding all the arrows.
The perception and dynamic vision brought by the hundred-meter-long [Mortal Realm], combined with the [Starry Night Dancer], are no joke.
Seeing this, the female archer gritted her teeth and simply pulled out three arrows, nocked them on her bow, aimed, and shot them!
Three arrows flew through the air in a triangular pattern, completely blocking all of Lin Qiye's movement space. The arrow tips were like a large net, covering Lin Qiye.
Lin Qiye pressed down on his top hat, and an extreme darkness spread out in all directions from him.
The next moment, the three arrows were firmly embedded in the darkness, unable to penetrate even an inch!
Lin Qiye could catch hundreds of missile fragments in half a second, so catching these three arrows was a piece of cake.
He waved his hand lightly, and the three arrows simultaneously changed direction and shot towards the female archer!
However, since the arrows were not fired from the female archer, they did not have that much kinetic energy. In addition, given his kindergarten-level shooting skills, the three arrows had long since gone astray.
Female archer:...
Lin Qiye sighed and decided to kill her to silence her, so as not to expose his extraordinary shooting talent.
He lightly pressed his finger on the handle of the black box, and with a soft click, a sheathed straight knife popped out from the side of the black box!
Lin Qiye reached out and gripped the knife.
Clang—!
With a crisp hum, the straight sword was drawn.Lin Qiye narrowed his eyes slightly, gripped his knife in one hand, and approached the female archer like a ghost, his speed completely different from before.
The female archer pursed her lips and fired several arrows in quick succession, but Lin Qiye easily dodged them all.
Under the flickering streetlights, Lin Qiye's figure was like a ghost. His pale blue blade left a straight mark on the dim street, and he arrived in front of the female archer in an instant.
The female archer's pupils suddenly contracted!
A flash of blade light appeared, and blood splattered everywhere.
Lin Qiye walked past the female archer expressionlessly and sheathed his sword.
Thump!
The female archer, her throat slit, fell to the ground.
The pool of blood gradually spread.
Both were at the "Pool" realm, but Lin Qiye only needed one knife to kill her, and only needed to strike once.
This is not only a gap in the forbidden ruins, but more importantly, a gap in the types of troops.
If the battle between the madman Cao Yuan and the three-sword man was like a berserker beating an assassin, then her encounter with Lin Qiye was like a fragile archer encountering an assassin, utterly powerless against Lin Qiye's superior agility.
As for the chubby guy and the skinny man... perhaps this is the war between Doraemon and Gian.
Lin Qiye picked up the black box from the ground, slightly raised his black top hat, looked into the distance where the explosions were coming one after another, and sighed helplessly.
"I'll have to beat that crazy black guy back later, what a hassle..."
He shook his head, picked up the two black boxes, and strode into the night-covered streets....
Meanwhile, on another tall building several hundred meters away.
Leng Xuan slowly moved the sniper scope away from his eyes, staring in the direction Lin Qiye had left, a faint smile appearing on his lips.
"Not bad."
