526 Dream of Eternity (2/2)
”This son of a b*tch, he actually defected to the Church of Storms!” Maveti growled as mania flashed in his eyes.
Blood Brambles Hendry looked at Calm Squall and sincerely praised him, ”Fortunately, we weren't careless.”
”In fact, I didn't expect a foolish donkey like Blazing Danitz to cooperate with the Church of Storms,” Squall said calmly. ”Perhaps, the injured him was already captured by the Mandated Punishers, and he had no choice but to cooperate with them.”
Just as they were about to leave, they saw something protruding from the shadows outside the house at 15 Amyris Avenue. Something was sticking to the ground and quickly moving away.
”Blazing!” Steel Maveti recalled the scenes of his failed ambush.
”Danitz!” Hendry also recognized the man who had tried to escape with his magical powers.
Squall was taken aback for a moment before coming to a realization.
”Either Blazing Danitz wishes to use this opportunity to escape the Mandated Punisher's control, or he has other traps to use against us; however, for some reason, the Mandated Punishers were attracted, so he had no choice but to give up and flee.”
”Regardless, this is an opportunity!” Blood Brambles Hendry glanced at the Mandated Punishers who had stormed the house. ”As long as we seize this minute, we'll be able to kill and take away Blazing under the noses of the Mandated Punishers!”
Steel Maveti's hopes were momentarily raised as his eyes revealed an abnormal look of mania.
After Squall nodded, he said to the other two Beyonders, ”Take my zombies and puppets and guard this position. Once the Mandated Punishers are here, use them to create chaos and take the opportunity to escape!”
”Yes, Boss.” The two Beyonder pirates jumped off the Flying Carpet at the same time with the zombies and puppets.
The peacock-blue carpet made a turn and shot ahead of Blazing.
”Provide us support. Mainly be on guard against the surroundings. I'm worried that Danitz has other helpers,” Squall seized the moment and said to the Blood Brambles Hendry.
A smile appeared on Hendry's pale face.
”Alright!”
Without saying anything else, Squall nodded at Steel Maveti.
Relying on his advantage from being high in the sky, Maveti was able to distinguish the mostly normal shadows, determining the direction of the target.
He suddenly jumped off the Flying Carpet and landed heavily on the ground like a giant boulder. White frost condensed under his feet as a layer of cold and transparent ice quickly spread to the side.
The black shadow was immediately frozen in the corner!
With a crack, Blazing Danitz struggled to break free, ”growing” out of the shadows.
On the Flying Carpet, Hendry showed their good teamwork by dropping what he had long held in his hand. They were green leaves, flowers, and brambles.
The leaves, petals, and brambles wildly grew in size or joined together, ensnaring Blazing Danitz, making him immobile.
Squall took the opportunity to jump off the Flying Carpet and thrust a sharp scalpel in his right palm towards Danitz's neck.
Splat!
He held onto the handle of the scalpel with his right hand and circled around to the back of the target.
Danitz's head fell off and his body quickly shrank, turning into a thin, tattered paper figurine.
At the same time, Steel Maveti felt an indescribable sense of hunger bearing down on him. It was like a terrifying monster hidden in the darkness, quietly watching him.
No, it's not Blazing! Just as this thought flashed through his mind, an extremely compressed, incandescent fireball flew over from one of the rooftops, smashing towards his body.
Steel Maveti only made one movement, and that was to raise his arm in front of his body.
Boom!
The flames exploded and a shockwave radiated in all directions, blocking Squall's and Hendry's line of sight. However, they weren't flustered at all, as they had the utmost confidence in Steel.
Sure enough, Maveti only suffered from having his clothes torn and his skin covered in white marks. Apart from that, he hadn't suffered any injuries at all.
But at that moment, he suddenly saw a figure walking out of the roiling flames in the sky. It was clearly a black cloak belonging to Blazing Danitz, but it had neatly combed black hair, dark, emotionless eyes, and a thin, cold face.
The Danitz from before had always been Faceless Klein, Gehrman Sparrow, who had always been prepared for the hunt!
