709 Metropolis of Death (1/2)
Facing an opponent who was detailedly analysing him, Aldaris's pupils contracted slightly as he issued a cold smirk.
”So what?”
”Nothing really.” Old Fat sinisterly inferred.
”Yuan Zhan has divulged that once stabbed by 'Mage-Nemesis', if one tries to pull it out of his own accord, 33% of one's health would be forcibly deducted! With such massive damage, a person stabbed by it normally wouldn't proactively try to pull the dagger out. However! I will recommend to Marissa that once she is stabbed by your dagger, she should pull it out at once. Because for a ridiculous property of shaving off one's health substantially just by pulling out a dagger, such a property definitely possesses a long cool down! Otherwise, many powerful storyline characters would've be slain by you long ago.”
”Marissa...” an ominous premonition welled up in Aldaris's heart. ”You and Marissa are actually teaming up to deal with me???? Then what about Zi?”
”You still have the time to worry about Zi? Don't worry! Though Zeus needs to pin down Skull and cannot be present, but this time, Fu Lyanna is personally acting to finish her off!”
***********
Meanwhile, this was when Zi had unleashed her 'Dragonforce Grip', and was about to viciously grip Sable's neck.
Yet out of the blue, a tiny black spot formed in front of Zi. That black spot then rapidly expanded into a fist sized black hole.
A dark red blood flew out from the hole, and swiftly stretched into different forms as though a pen was writing with blood ink. Ultimately, it formed into two words.
Danger! Escape!
Eventually, the blood fell to the ground. Instead of dissolving in, it remained congealed like a ruby.
Witnessing this scene, the exceptionally decisive Zi proceeded to ignore Sable, and immediately turned to flee. In a flash, she disappeared from Sable's line of sight.
Yet a hundred metre away, she was abruptly stalled by an invisible barrier.
”Is it the 'Chains of Corrosion'? You ultimately couldn't resist coming?
In this instant, a dense baleful aura emanated from Zi's countenance coupled with a jade like arrogance.
She bit her lips forcefully.
Without hesitation, she raised her pair of silver rapiers!
Raising them up high.
One could vividly observe. The pair of silver rapiers were ignited! Broiling with fiery silver radiance!
Putting it simply, Zi wasn't willing to waste her precious energy and strength here, and blatantly chose to combust the horcrux of her twin formidable weapons!
With this method, their might inevitably soared. Of course, the side effects was extremely obvious. A weapon that could ignite its horcrux would inevitably drop a grade from that. Yet most importantly, it held a definite chance of being destroyed!
A dazzling brilliance erupted from Zi's hands. Then, one could hear few miserable echoes from afar.
In a heartbeat, all of Zi's surroundings turned pitch black. Nevertheless, the obstructing invisible barrier became visible. It was unexpectedly lines of astronomical metallic chains. The total length of metallic chains interwove together could possibly stretch for millions of miles. The chains were coated with a bright shining luster.
Following that, Zi released a torrent of thrusts; chiselling of inches after inches of metallic fragments and finally opened a way out.
A way to live!
Zi's body blurred, and soon disappeared into the distant desert.
**********
The raging winds were screaming.
Zi gazed into the distant ruins, which were currently hailed as the 'Metropolis of Death'.
There was still ten kilometres before reaching the Metropolis of Death. In spite of that, intense waves of dreadful aura could already be felt sweeping against her skin; prompting the hairs on her skin to stand on end.
If it was a normal day, Zi absolutely wouldn't venture in. This was because even with her current prowess, it would still be exceedingly tough to ensure a safe retreat after entering.
Alas, she didn't have a choice.
The 'Chains of Corrosion' appeared once again; signifying that the Metals Professor, Fu Lyanna, was hot on her heels.
There was a massive contrast between this woman's malicious thoughts and her outward appearance. She harbored a twisted belief – Only by executing all females who were more beautiful and intelligent than her, could she become the most intelligent and beautiful!
Upon thinking of her, Zi spitefully curled her lips. In her eyes, the Metals Professor, Fu Lyanna, was a total loser. Regardless of personal strength or external allurement, Zi held overwhelming superiority over her.
Nevertheless, Fu Lyanna was now completely Zeus's woman. This meant that she definitely didn't come alone.
If she were facing Fu Lyanna alone, Zi held utmost confidence of suppressing her completely. Instead, with the addition of an assistant, Zi would inevitably be defeated.
Though nothing abnormal was occurring behind her yet, Zi remained exceedingly clear. Her pursuers were capable of closing the gap with frightening pace!
This was due to her deep understanding of Zeus. Once he acted, he was bound to make an all out effort!
Hence, Zi was fleeing towards the danger district of the dinosaur disaster zone without hesitation!
The Metropolis of Death!
To the haughty her, she'd rather die to the jaws of terrifying beasts, than allow the members of Glory Party to terminate her life!
******************
Two minutes elapsed since Zi passed by this area. Soon, a few bulky or skinny figures came rapidly racing through. After a temporary pause, they rushed off towards the direction Zi had fled in without a shred of hesitation.
