Chapter 2432: Chapter 2427: The Prophet Is Dead (38)

The Lord’s behavior, knowing well he’d be rejected yet still coming, seemed somewhat unreasonable.

And the target they had been chasing all along, not showing up after losing protection, also seemed illogical.

Two negatives make a positive, turning the act of coming over for an awkward chat rather suspicious.

As a key figure, the Ashen Messenger, Holle, also realized something was off and promptly did a blood test on himself.

Judging from his somewhat grave expression, the blood test results didn’t look good.

”He did invite me for a drink, but...”

He even admitted in a slightly hushed voice to Fu Qian’s questions.

Though it was clearly puzzling how some things happened so quietly.

”You’ve been poisoned?”

At this point, Crystal finally paid attention to her old acquaintance, clearly not expecting such an accident.

As for the mutation on Holle’s body, her initial understanding was quite down-to-earth.

”It seems so, but at the moment, it doesn’t feel too strange... What I’m more curious about is why he’s doing this.”

Holle shook his head, indicating he wasn’t in too much trouble for now and couldn’t understand the Lord’s actions.

”Does Lord Andiel know?”

Crystal was thoughtful, looking at Fu Qian, who had taken the initiative to bring up this topic.

”Isn’t he inherently antisocial, always planning some mischief? Coming over so recklessly, not being cautious at all?”

When you don’t mention it, it’s fine, but once mentioned, the problem arises. Honestly speaking, it’s indeed suspicious, not easy to dissociate from.

Unfortunately, facing many doubtful gazes, Fu Qian remained calm, even somewhat puzzledly questioning back at that moment.

...

Logical and reasonable.

When he first came here, he heard Ballard comment on the Lord’s deeds, confirming that at the Unseen Hillock, that character was definitely not a positive one.

Therefore, Fu Qian’s rebuttal for a moment left people speechless.

However, Holle’s carelessness can’t be entirely blamed on him either.

It’s clearly not a normal time now; one could say everyone is shrouded in a dilemma of ”freedom calling”, forming an indistinct common cause against an enemy.

In such a situation, it’s easy for people to forgo some usual prejudices.

”Additionally, are you certain this falls under the Lord’s abilities? It seems quite special.”

Seeing that no one responded, Fu Qian gestured at the blood flowing from Holle.

”Not sure... but those guys often have new inventions.”

As a key figure, Holle undoubtedly has the most authority to speak on this.

After savoring it for a few seconds, he shook his head again, noncommittal.

That’s how it is.

Fu Qian thought silently.

Although he spoke like that earlier, from his perspective, there could actually be a more detailed interpretation of why the Lord would do such a thing—

Something that was within easy reach, yet he didn’t go find Catherine for trouble anymore.

Fu Qian didn’t think the Lord would lack the courage, especially when the gains could be disproportionately high... so by the process of elimination, is there perhaps no longer a need?

For instance, although obstructed by himself and failing to complete the kill at the time, some gains were still secured.

Even the methods that happened to Holle, which the natives do not recognize, are his gains.

As for the purpose of doing this, whether it’s a new direction or an evil prompted by his nature, is a new issue worth exploring.

But in conclusion, this could be seen as another significant gain after the carriage took him to this bar.

Moreover, the tense atmosphere reached its peak.

Even the most disheartened superheroes have limits, and with miscreants being bold in their presence, drinking more might lead to people disappearing.

It’s clear that Holle’s fury meter had filled up, as in a movie, he no longer could endure and was ready to flip the table and draw weapons.

The best part is that he had entirely found a suitable meddling stick, stirring the situation while keeping himself mostly uninvolved.

Keeping consistent with the previous principles, and yet contrary to Akasha’s team’s intentions.

...

”You guys are really annoying...”

Sure enough, the next moment the voice from the Ashen Messenger sounded drastically different from before.

The deep killing intent in it, if the Lord dared to appear in front, would likely be torn apart directly—

Crack!

Even if not appearing, it didn’t matter; an alien arm with hard bristles had already torn through the air and everything before it, such as Akasha’s bone claws.

Indeed, unable to find the person involved, Holle didn’t even hold back his rage to wait for an eruption, but rather directly attacked the ”feasible targets” in front of him.

Completely normal, after getting enraged, isn’t it blasting all the red names indiscriminately?

Fu Qian wasn’t even too surprised.

In fact, as a notorious outsider, he had assessed the probability of being targeted himself.

But apparently, Akasha’s bad reputation outweighed his, with a more pronounced label.

As for the Spider Queen’s reaction, it was indeed swift, almost instantaneously making defensive maneuvers.

Unfortunately, Holle’s abilities seemed evidently more characterized by physical strength.

With a crisp sound, the bone claw snapped for the second time.

Roar—

An ear-piercing roar swept through the entertainment venue.

...

It’s said that blessings and curses are unpredictable.

Previously noting Lady Crystal’s mild demeanor in not directly icing this place to drive people away seemed a blessing.

Yet, at this moment for those enjoying nightlife, that kind of encounter might have been preferable.

By the time Crystal arrived, the crowd had already sensed the anomaly, most retreated from the place, yet a few more obstinate individuals remained watching from afar.

The eventual outcome was being faced with Holle’s fierce battle cry.

Luckily, it seemed this was mainly a mental effect, without exaggerated physical impact.

In a moment, those affected were as if their souls had been roared out of their bodies, standing dumbfounded.

”It’s absurd!”

Even the main target, the Spider Queen, was inevitably impacted to some extent, unable to react in time.

Amidst the flying red hair, the remaining two bone claws met the chase with difficulty just barely blocking Holle’s onslaught.

Crunch!

The price was another snapped bone claw.

”I have no time to go mad with you here!”

Shouting angrily, this clearly reflected her intense dissatisfaction.

And utilizing the precious time bought, a phantom silk web finally formed, making her figure suddenly hard to grasp.

Akasha clearly didn’t like the fire spreading to herself, even less interested in fighting Holle here.

Though her restraining method wasn’t gentle—

As Holle roared towards the sound’s origin, leaping up, those omnipresent phantom silk threads turned into slicing blades, instantly slashing countless wounds.

However, for Holle, already in a frenzy, such injuries seemed to provoke his ferocity more—hiss!

Until an Ice Crystal Spear pierced through him entirely from behind.
