According to my memories from my previous life, the hall upstairs was where the commander was located.

Alvin didn't think much and ran upstairs.

As he expected, there were several bodies of dead guards lying all over the place along the way. The wounds were on the neck or back, and it was obvious that they were killed by Valeera.

He could vaguely hear the sounds of fighting and screaming, and his heart sank as he quickly ran towards the direction of the sound.

When he rushed into the commander's hall, the scene before him made him gasp.

There were several guards lying on the ground, having been stabbed to death by Valeera, but Valeera herself was also covered in wounds. Her cloak was tattered and thrown aside, and she was only wearing a set of highly revealing leather armor, which was basically stained red with blood.

Covered in blood, Valeera is like a Valkyrie on the battlefield, exuding a unique charm.

At this moment, the girl was holding two daggers and confronting Blackmoore, like an angry wild cat.

Blackmoore was a tall, burly warrior, wielding a massive battle axe and moving with steady, powerful movements.

Each of his attacks was like thunder, forcing Valeera to retreat again and again.

Although Valeera was agile, she seemed a little overwhelmed by Blackmoore's powerful strength.

Her dagger drew streaks of cold light in the air, trying to find Blackmoore's weakness. Every strike was precise and deadly.

However, Blackmoore's defenses were impenetrable, and Valeera's attacks had little effect on him.

Soon, Valeera's strength began to wear thin, so she changed her strategy and kept a distance of 8 yards from Blackmoore.

Valeera's poisoned dagger made Blackmoore very angry. He felt numb all over, and his legs felt as heavy as a thousand pounds, so he couldn't walk. He could only move his heavy body slowly towards Valeera, but the distance of eight yards was just beyond the reach of Blackmoore's battle axe. At the same time, Valeera was waiting for her strength to recover a little before going up to fight him again.

Blackmoore suddenly sneered, and when the effect of the poison was about to end, he suddenly stepped back, avoiding Valeera's fatal thrust, and then roared loudly and let out a shrill scream. Valeera was stunned by the roar and began to lose control of her weak body.

Blackmoore didn't give Valeera time to think. He suddenly intercepted her from a distance and swung his battle axe. Valeera barely avoided it, but her ankle was still grazed by the axe blade. Blood splattered all over her in an instant, and the girl could no longer move quickly.

She gritted her teeth and showed a pained expression, but she still did not retreat.

"You useless thief!" Blackmoore taunted. "I sent you to kill someone, but you didn't get the kill, and you dare come back and attack me?! Today I'll show you how powerful the Syndicate is!"

Alvin and Valeera were both stunned, and then they suddenly realized.

It turns out that Blackmore is indeed a member of the Syndicate gang, and it was he who used Maloxus' life to force Valeera to assassinate Alvin.

"You beast!" Valeera roared, brandishing her weapon and rushing towards Blackmoore.

Blackmoore sneered and met Valeera's attack.

The two men clashed fiercely, with swords flashing and sparks flying.

Valeera's daggers were versatile, but Blackmoore's strength and defense made it more difficult for her to gain an advantage.

Suddenly, Valeera's figure became blurred. She mobilized all her strength and used quick movements to dodge Blackmore's attack.

Alvin took one look and realized that she had activated the "dodge" skill, and shouted that something was wrong.

Blackmore had a malicious smile on his face.

"Stupid thief, wait and see how I suppress you!"

A fierce gleam flashed in Blackmoore's eyes as he launched a deadly attack, his battle axe arcing through the air towards Valeera.

Valeera dodged quickly, but Blackmoore's speed and strength exceeded her expectations.

The battle axe struck her shoulder hard, and blood spurted out.

Valeera screamed in agony as the immense force sent her flying, slamming heavily against the wall. Her face instantly paled.

She struggled to stand up, but the pain from the wound made it almost impossible for her to move.

Blackmoore sneered as he approached, a cruel glint in his eyes. "You think you can defeat me? How naive! I'm going to show you today that a warrior can defeat a thief with his eyes closed!"

Valeera's eyes were filled with unwillingness, but her body could no longer support her. Her breathing became rapid, and blood continued to flow from the wound, staining her clothes red. Her fingers tightly grasped the dagger, but her strength was rapidly draining away.

She could only watch as Blackmoore grinned and raised his battle axe high above her head.

At this crucial moment, Alvin was already taking action. He took a deep breath, concentrated his mind, selected the "Holy Fire" skill icon in his mind, and began to chant the spell. His voice was low and firm, and golden light gathered in his hands, gradually forming a blazing pillar of fire.

"Holy Light, please destroy my enemies!" Alvin prayed in a low voice, raised his hands high, and a golden pillar of fire fell from the sky and hit Blackmoore directly.

Blackmoore was caught off guard and was struck by a pillar of golden fire, which instantly engulfed his body. He screamed and tried to struggle, but the power of the flames was too great and he was quickly reduced to ash.

Valeera looked up in surprise and saw Alvin standing not far away with his hands raised high, the golden light gradually dissipating in his hands.

Alvin was originally full of anger at Valeera for not following the orders and acting alone, but when he saw Valeera's weak appearance, his anger instantly dissipated, replaced by deep worry.

He gasped, raising his hand and waving at Valeera.

"Thank you, Alvin." Valeera whispered, her voice full of fatigue and gratitude. Her face was still pale, and her eyes flashed with a complex and inexplicable emotion.

"Although I really want to kick your ass a few times, we have to escape before the guards come back." Alvin said with a wry smile.

Before he finished speaking, his palms were already emitting a soft light, the light of a powerful healing technique.

Valeera's wounds healed quickly in the light, and her skin became smooth again.

The light seemed to carry the power of life. Wherever it went, scars disappeared and pain dissipated.

Valeera looked at her body in amazement, as if she couldn't believe the miracle before her.

"Let's go!" Alvin said without question, then pulled Vali up and picked her up. The princess-carrying posture made her cheeks flush, and she looked a little reluctant.

"Put me down, I can walk by myself!" Valeela struggled, her hands constantly pushing against Alvin's chest, trying to break free from his embrace. But Alvin's arms held her tightly like an iron hoop, not allowing her to resist.

"Be obedient. You were just hit on the ankle. Even if I use healing magic to heal this injury, you can't do strenuous exercise now!" Alvin ordered in a low voice.

But Valeera still refused to give in and started doing somersaults in Alvin's arms, which made Alvin furious.

Suddenly, Alvin lowered his head and gently kissed Valeera on the forehead.

The kiss was like magic, calming Valeera instantly.
