Infinite Puzzle City

Chapter 832 I Prefer Group Fights
"boom!!"

The intense light instantly turned the world black and white, and countless trees and rocks blocking the way vanished in an instant.

A devastating torrent of energy tore through the rain curtain, suddenly engulfing Xiao Ran's figure.

It took a good five or six seconds for the beam of light to slowly fade away.

As the beam of light dissipated, the surrounding world was shrouded in a layer of hazy water vapor, and the air still smelled of pungent coke.

"Is it gone?" Kasa looked at the half of the mountain that had almost disappeared in front of him, and his gaze couldn't help but fall on the scepter in the woman's hand.

Grade B cursed item: Blade of the Goddess of Light

This weapon, hailed as the most terrifyingly lethal weapon below A-grade, would probably have tempted him to snatch it if its usage conditions weren't so extreme.

The woman did not respond; she released her mental perception and scanned the area in front of her and even every inch of the land around her.

Only after confirming that no trace of the target had been found did they say, "Target eliminated. Notify Team 1 to prepare for Plan B."

"Ha ha ha ha."

Mars burst into laughter upon hearing this, "Good riddance, good riddance! That damned fellow, go to hell and complain to Satan!"

"Mars!"

Kasa on the left scolded him: "Stop your arrogance. Your stupidity this time almost got us killed. The data clearly states that the opponent is extremely skilled in close combat and is definitely not someone to be trifled with."

From the very beginning, Kasa disliked this idiot very much. If the organization hadn't forced them to team up, he would have killed this idiot first in any other place.

"Kasa, are you scared?"

Mars raised his head with a cold laugh, as if Xiao Ran's death had dispelled all the gloom in his heart.

Casa didn't speak, but the face under the raincoat suddenly turned hostile.

Only then did the Japanese man who had just drawn his sword say, "The mission is complete. Don't waste time here. The organization requires us to collect 500,000 souls. Let's start here."

"Wow!" Mars looked up and exclaimed, "When we came here, I thought it was an impossible mission. I didn't expect China to be so stable. Half a million people, hehe, now just a small town is enough for us to complete the mission."

Even Casa had to admit that Mars was right when he made that remark.

"It's too stable."

Compared to Eurasia, the landing of the Lost City triggered unprecedented chaos, which continues to this day.

Ironically, no one intervened.

Even now, it has become extremely difficult for the organization to gather 1.5 million souls.

It's not that there isn't enough population, but rather that the population has been packaged up and sold off to other organizations by those damned politicians.

God's right hand, while powerful enough, is not powerful enough to declare war on multiple organizations simultaneously.

So this time, revenge was just a pretext; their main mission was to plunder as many souls as possible.

"Then let's get to work, Ms. Rose! None of the three of us have the privilege of causing widespread destruction, so the killing will be left to you. We are willing to pay 3000 ghost coins as compensation. As for collecting souls, you can leave that to us."

Mars wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and shouted rapidly at the blonde woman.

Rose frowned, about to refuse the suggestion, when suddenly her expression changed drastically: "Wait!!"

As soon as she spoke, a mournful wail came from the surrounding hazy gray fog.

The surrounding mist was becoming increasingly darker at a visible speed.

"Be careful!!"

Rose realized the situation was dire and immediately raised her long staff, illuminating the surroundings with a blinding light.

However, the powerful light that could turn a football field into daylight could only illuminate a distance of about 100 meters before being swallowed up by the surrounding darkness.

"What is this??" Kasa looked around with a serious expression.

Rose looked around, but couldn't make out anything.

The Japanese man standing nearby, looking at the dark smog around them, said, "This looks a lot like the formations of our Yin-Yang Academy."

"Sakurai, do you have a way to break through?" Mars pressed.

Sakurai shook his head: "This kind of formation is an extremely profound subject in the Yin-Yang Academy. I don't have the ability to break it, but I think that with such a large-scale formation, the opponent must be nearby. As long as we kill the opponent, the formation will be broken."

The three understood what Sakurai meant.

In an instant, everyone turned their gaze toward Xiao Ran.

However, roses.

Because only roses have a wide-range killing ability.

Upon hearing this, Rose paused for a moment, then said, "5000 ghost coins!"

"You bitch, even at this point, you still want us to pay!"

Mars couldn't help but curse.

But Kasa, standing to the side, merely frowned slightly, yet still nodded in agreement, saying, "No problem."

“What I mean is, 5000 ghost money per person,” Rose added. Even Sakurai couldn't help but curse, “Baka!”

"Give!"

Kasa's face darkened. Even for professionals like them, this was no small sum; it would take two or even three side quests to earn it.

"Pay first!" Rose opened her arms.

The three men's lips twitched a few times, and finally they paid the money while cursing.

After the three of them received 15,000 yuan in ghost money, Rose finally smiled and said, "I guarantee this money is well worth it."

The next moment, she raised the [Blade of the Goddess of Light] high in her hand.

"Privilege 2: Light Domain"

The runes on the staff flashed, and a blinding light suddenly burst forth again, but this time the light did not gather, but exploded violently!
As if the sky had been torn apart, countless fine beams of light, like a dense rain of arrows, burst forth wildly from the tip of the staff!

Suddenly, it looked as if a dazzling miniature sun had risen above the dimly lit hill!

boom! boom! boom! boom! boom!
The light tore through the dim black mist, emitting a sharp crack, and mercilessly splashed in all directions. Wherever it passed, rocks and vegetation were evaporated, forcibly dispersing the surrounding black mist. Its range continued to expand, and it was about to completely tear apart the gloom that shrouded their heads.

Such a wide-ranging attack was a sweeping operation with virtually no blind spots.

Mars, Casa, and Sakurai could only feel envy.

They possessed B-grade cursed items, but their power was far inferior to the long staff in Rose's hand.

However, at that very moment, when billions of rays of light crisscrossed, as if a storm of light were sweeping across the land.

Suddenly, a booming sound came from the black mist in front of them.

"Boom!!"

A deep, resonant bell rang out, and in an instant, billowing black mist surged in from all directions like a tidal wave. The black mist that had been swept away by the bright light was instantly restored to its original state, and rolled in like a tsunami.

This scene immediately took all four of them by surprise.

Before they could react, the entire black mist completely engulfed them.

In an instant, the sky, the surroundings, and even the ground beneath their feet were all shrouded in black mist, and the soil beneath their feet was also covered by a layer of pitch-black liquid.

"how so??"

Rose was taken aback; this had never happened before.

"It's simple, it's because you're not strong enough."

Xiao Ran's voice came, and the four of them looked in the direction of the voice. In the dark world in front of them, Xiao Ran was sitting on a coffin, like a god who ruled this world, scrutinizing their faces.

At this moment, Xiao Ran's gaze swept over the four people, and then locked onto the long staff in Rose's hand.

As a B-grade cursed item, this thing's destructive power is indeed stronger than expected.

In modern terms, this thing is a bit too powerful.

In terms of destructive power alone, none of the B-grade cursed items in my possession can achieve such power.

If I had to say something, it would be that Wu Man's [Ten Thousand Food Cauldron] has the potential to compete.

But as Xiao Ran said, although this staff has extremely strong destructive power, unfortunately, its owner, Rose, is too weak.

It didn't even manage to unleash the full potential of the item.

Not only is her strength lacking, but her thinking is also not sharp enough. If she could use her special divine judgment again and concentrate her power, she could completely tear a hole in the curse she had set up.

But precisely because of her arrogance, or rather, because of the misleading influence of the little idiot next to her, she actually dared to completely crush her own aversion to evil, which was simply a pipe dream.

Xiao Ran only needs to burn a few more pieces of joss paper to replenish the lost Yin energy and completely pull them into his curse.

This was also to prevent the four guys from escaping.

They wanted to find out more about them.

Kasa's face darkened as he looked at Xiao Ran, who had appeared before him. He turned to Mars and asked, "You've fought him before. What other information do you know? Tell me quickly."

Upon hearing this, Mars's face turned green, and he stammered, unsure of what to say.

He had no idea what kind of intelligence he was talking about.

Xiao Ran's slap just now shattered her Water Soul, and if she hadn't noticed quickly, her soul might have been obliterated.

Mars, who couldn't even withstand a single move, was at a loss for words for the moment.

Looking at Xiao Ran alone, he opened his mouth and said, "He's all alone, there are four of us."

Hearing this, Casa, Sakurai, and even Rose all felt an urge to kill this idiot. Why are you spouting nonsense when you're supposed to give me some information?

However, Xiao Ran shook his head at this moment and looked at Mars: "Sorry, I've never liked fighting alone. I prefer ganging up."

As Xiao Ran's voice fell, several figures emerged one after another from the shadows behind her.

Six Eyes, Green Skeleton, Wu Dang, Butcher, Sanli, Archer, and Painter all walked up to Xiao Ran in unison.
