879 Life over Money Part 2 (1/2)

Grade-12...

Saleen took out his family badge without any second thoughts. Gloria had obviously taken him for an ancient human. A grade-12 creature would be able to reduce him to dust with just any of their skills.

His only choice at that moment was to be the first to act.

Even the Crystal Finger did not seem all that reliable to him anymore. The skill was able to be evaded easily by a grade-10 blue ice maiden. Saleen did not believe for one second that the Crystal Finger would be enough to kill the grade-12 angel of fear.

The Crystal Finger's effective range was too short. The angel of fear would be able to reach any target within ten yards with that double-edge blade of his.

Saleen believed that the angel of fear would be powerful even in ancient times, as humans back then would have also have wracked their brains to subdue one such creature, instead of destroying them outright. Money or life, Saleen came to his own conclusion with it.

Having money yet without life was the greatest tragedy there was.

Nailisi continued killing pests on the second floor. She had little idea of what was going on. There was only the crisis alert going about in her mind, which she was not able to dispel.

The water puppet stopped helping Nailisi and made for the third floor with Saleen instead. It saw Saleen levitating in mid-air, with a badge the size of his palm in his hand.

Saleen's Elemental Eye allowed him to see more than one-hundred miles away. There were no tall buildings nearby but the military depot. Saleen had already readied himself to launch an assault when the angel of fear was still twenty miles away.

He was not sure of the absolute limit of his family's badge's range of attack. Since the magic cannon from the second dynasty that he acquired could wipe out anything it shot at within ten miles, twenty miles should not have been the limit for his family badge.

”Oh, Angel of Fear, whatever riches you have with you, I want no part of it!”

Saleen continued using Figaro's magic formula to calculate the angel of fear's route, getting ready to launch one lethal attack. The angel of fear turned his head all of a sudden twenty miles away, looking at the crystal tower. Saleen was shocked, but quickly recomposed himself. The crystal tower only allowed for the ones inside to look out, not the other way around.

”That thing definitely reacted to my family badge. The badge definitely poses a threat to him.”

Saleen unleashed the power within the badge without second thoughts. A streak of thick blue electrical discharge burst out from the badge. There seemed to be hundreds of thousands of magic beasts howling within the badge, which then turned to a continuous, thundering boom.

The lightning hit the angel of fear within the blink of an eye. The speed that it all took place startled even Saleen himself. The blue electrical discharge's diameter expanded to fifteen yards to twenty miles away, yet the power remained all the same. The eight yard tall angel of fear was literally swallowed by the attack. The thundering boom with the blue streak reduced his soul to dust.

The powerful grade-12 body turned to dust in the electrical attack.

Saleen laughed his lungs out. He saw the angel of fear being reduced to dust the size of elemental particles. It was more dead than dead. The stress within Saleen's mind cleared, and he turned around ready to kill the pests again.

There was a sharp pain on his back just as he turned. It was the kind of pain that came from the depths of one's soul.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please clickfor visiting.

He turned around furiously, and saw another angel of fear appearing somewhere about thirty miles away. The other one was also eight yards tall and held a seven yard double-edge blade in his hand. A buzz was heard from within Saleen's mind, and his hair stood on end.

”There is a second angel of fear!” He could not use his badge again after using it once. Even if he was to give it his all, and had all the help he was able to get from sorcerers around him, he would have still needed about three months to charge the badge full. ”I just used up all the power of the badge, and now a second angel of fear shows up. What the hell am I supposed to do?!”

Saleen's Elemental Eye was able to see clearly that the second angel of fear was making for the crystal tower slowly. That one was also naked, yet a female one. Large breasts were on the naked torso, and beneath it, the familiar ferocious and horrifying face.

The female angel of fear stared at the crystal tower. There was then a hole the size of a basin in the window of the third floor. The angel of fear's eyes saw right through the hole and landed on the Saleen's face. Saleen felt like the skin of face was being pricked. If it had not been for the Devil Mask acting as a barrier, Saleen felt his face would have been all bloodied.

”Master, subdue that thing!”, Gloria shouted.

Saleen simply called Gloria back to the water elemental badge. She was of no help going against a grade-12 creature. Having all of the blue ice maidens unleashed and acting as a barrier might have bought him three to five seconds.

”Is there any way to get out of this? Saleen began recollecting in his mind the equipment he had with him. ”Maybe a grade-10 magic scroll? This is a grade-12 angel of fear! This Imperial City of the Abyss is indeed something scary. Grade-12 monsters already appeared, and that was just the outskirts! Should I run? Use Nailisi's Twelve Notes of Purgatory? That thing is only good for trapping creatures below grade-10, and Nailisi herself is not even grade-10. If I throw this thing in there, the purgatories might end up being torn apart. There would truly be no way out then.”

Saleen's mind raced to think of a way out, as he unleashed all grade-9 elemental stone statue soldiers to the first floor, keeping the way into the second floor completely blocked.

”Nailisi!”, Saleen shouted.
