Witch Special

Just when Lin Zhenxi was worried about whether his friend would encounter an accident, the figure of the extremely ugly yellow-haired monster suddenly became illusory. First, it became translucent, and then dissipated into the air like decomposed foam. Except for the fragments of Nebel scattered on the ground, no trace was left.

This is a summon? Is it such a powerful summon?

Among the major magical organizations in the demon world, the Whirlwind Demon Society was renowned for its contract summoning. Summoners used telepathic communication to establish trust with powerful magical creatures, signing summoning contracts that allowed them to fight.

However, some former members of the Whirlwind Demon Society believed that this method of maintaining close relationships with summoned creatures was too slow to build combat effectiveness, and that those foolish elementals were not worth their time and energy. Therefore, they embarked on a different path, completely contrary to the ideals of the Whirlwind Demon Society's leader, Katie. This was to use the Ring of Domination to forcibly control elemental creatures, overriding their own will over their summons, and ruthlessly using them as mere cannon fodder and consumables.

This method was certainly not accepted by the orthodox summoners of the Whirlwind Demon Society. As a result, a fierce dispute arose between the Contract Summoning Faction and the Elf Summoning Faction due to their different ideologies, which ultimately led to the split of the Whirlwind Demon Society. A large number of summoners who advocated forced summoning and domination left the Whirlwind Demon Society under the leadership of their leader Smilla and established the "Second Covenant".

While the "Second Promise" drew away a significant number of summoners, the Whirlwind Demon Society, as the demon world's oldest summoner organization, still boasts a multitude of powerful individuals. Unlike the "Second Promise," which prioritized speed and ease, the summoners of the Whirlwind Demon Society meticulously cultivate relationships with their summoned creatures. This, in turn, makes them more likely to attract the attention of powerful magical creatures and even other powerful demons. After all, there's no rule that prohibits humans from being contracted; as long as a demon world member is willing, it's no big deal for a demon world member to contract with another demon world member.

This hideous swordsman, who had chopped Nebel, controlled by Buffon, into pieces with a few flashes of sword light, had a rather distinctive exit method. Lin Zhenxi deduced that it was a contracted summon from the Rotating Demon Society. Obviously, the strength and duration of a summoned creature were tied to the strength of the summoner. Even if such a ridiculously powerful summon could be summoned, it wouldn't last long.

This is different from Lin Zhenxi's summoning of familiars. Although Lin Zhenxi needs to continuously consume magic power to summon her familiars, as long as she does not interrupt the supply of magic power to the familiars, the familiars can stay as long as she wants. However, the summoner's summons are obviously not like this. They also have a set existence time. Especially after using a very powerful move, the summons will immediately disappear and cannot be summoned again in a short time.

That is to say, if there is no limit on the summoning time of such ridiculously powerful summoned creatures, the strength of the summoner profession will take off. How could it be suppressed by the Xiu Sect in Central Park and rely on the forest cultivated by Summoner Katie to survive?

Because she was worried about Noelni's safety, Lin Zhenxi directly turned the time-reversal image to the present. Seeing that Noelni had exhausted her magic power and failed to break through the defense of the Three Realms Alliance, and had to retreat to the Sanctuary of Birth to rest, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, Norni was alright, and the two sanctuary leaders, Rossello and Buffon, were also safe. None of these three people, who were close to her and familiar to her, were harmed in this incident, which was the best news for Lin Zhenxi.

Then, it was time to see where the two most troublesome assault teams had gone. So Lin Zhenxi once again locked onto their location and found them in a rather unexpected place.

Well, it wasn't that surprising. After all, since they had come to attack Silent City, their ultimate target was definitely not the Iron-Fisted Princess or the Giant-Fisted Prince, but the Apostle Luke, the master of Silent City. Therefore, it wasn't surprising that Lin Zhenxi would find such a group of people in the Mechanical Throne.

but……

Hey, what the hell is going on? Lin Zhenxi still found it hard to accept what she saw.

The battle of these people has ended. Everyone is healthy, not one is missing. Although there is inevitably some smoke on their bodies, this does not hinder the joy they show.

Farther ahead of the group, a short, white-bearded old man sat slumped on the ground. He wore unusual goggles with three lenses, had four arms, two thick and two thin, and wore only overalls riddled with burn holes.

Although it was a little hard to believe, Lin Zhenxi recalled the conversation between him and Rossello about the Apostle Luke, and he could clearly see that the frail old man with a white beard in his eyes was actually the founder of the Silent City, the "Light of the Demon World" widely respected by the demon world, and the creator of the ninth apostle, Luke.

After all, Luke's physical characteristics are too obvious, three eyes, four arms, all of which can correspond to this white-bearded old man.

But he's an apostle. Shouldn't he be a peerless powerhouse, terrorizing the demon world? Frankly, Lin Zhenxi didn't see any trace of power in this white-bearded old man. Aside from those two distinctive features, he looked just like any other old man in the community, strolling leisurely with a cane.

As a dignified apostle, even if he had been defeated by that team that seemed to have a strategy, he should not act so weak.

I don't understand.

In front of Apostle Luke, there was a plump woman with purple hair combed into a side ponytail, wearing a navy blue long-sleeved shirt and a black short skirt. She was the only lady who left a deep impression on Lin Zhenxi when she first met the Arad & Celestial Alliance.

Now the woman was talking to Apostle Luke, but Luke didn't seem to have much interest in talking. He only shook his head and nodded occasionally. Most of the time, it was the woman who was asking Luke questions.

What are they talking about? Lin Zhenxi was a little curious, but the images she saw through the Dimensional Talisman were silent. If she opened the space door directly, the noise would be too loud.

Just as the negotiations between this woman and Luke seemed to have reached a stalemate, a cross-shaped rift suddenly appeared in the space beside them. Then, the ugly, red-skinned, yellow-haired swordsman who had previously chopped Nebel to pieces with one strike, causing Lin Zhenxi to worry for a moment that Norni would also be chopped off by the same move, emerged with a strutting gait.

Seeing this ugly swordsman, Luke's expression finally changed significantly. He stood up reluctantly, trying to straighten his back to make himself look less embarrassed.

Negotiations began again, but this time, with the intervention of the ugly swordsman, Luke's attitude seemed to soften a lot, which could be seen from the smile that began to rise at the corner of the purple-haired woman's mouth.

At the end of the conversation, Luke turned around and walked shakily to a device in the room that was still glowing. He bent down to open the toolbox inside, rummaged through it, and took out a small glass ball that was shining with purple light.

In the purple light of this glass ball, one can vaguely see a grinning face with only eyes and a mouth. It looks about 70% similar to the "black nightmares" that Lin Zhenxi had seen in the teleportation hall of the "company".

When the ugly guy saw Luke hand the glowing glass ball to the purple-haired woman, he nodded with satisfaction, then drew the sword from his waist and split the space in front of him with two swishes, opening a cross-shaped space crack, and walked away very casually.

Who is this guy? He is so arrogant when he appears and leaves. Doesn’t he know that he will be struck by lightning for showing off?

After the purple-haired woman got the ball of light, she raised it above her head and smiled as she showed it to the members of the attack team behind her who had made great efforts. After seeing that their efforts had finally yielded the desired results, everyone's faces showed satisfaction and relief.

Even Luke, who had been trying so hard to straighten his back, couldn't help but bend down again. Although the eyes behind his goggles were dim, he seemed to have taken off a heavy burden and felt much more relaxed.

It looks like a family-friendly finale?

Lin Zhenxi did not feel sad for his colleagues in the Silent City who were killed by this group of people. After all, Lin Zhenxi was not familiar with them. As long as the familiar Noel, Rossello and Buffon were fine, it would be enough. At most, there would be one more Becky.

Anyway, where is Becky? Becky is such a cute little girl, no one would be cruel enough to kill her.

However, just when everything seemed to be over and everyone was relaxing, a dark shadow suddenly rushed up behind Luke, who had just bent down again, at a speed that no one else could react to, and thrust the dagger in his hand fiercely into Luke's chest.

The enormous force directly lifted Luke's skinny body from the ground, but because the dagger that pierced his body just pierced his vitals, he hardly struggled and stopped moving.

Everything happened so quickly, and the impact was so strong, that no one could react. The man swung Luke's body off his sword, shaking off the blood stained on the sword. He then reinserted the dagger into the scabbard at his waist, raised his hand to smooth down his dazzling silver hair, and a somewhat disgusting, businesslike smile appeared on his face.

Luke is dead.
