Sequence Beyond: My Wife is a Mysterious Boss

"Ammunition is being used up too quickly."

The woman in the leather jacket landed at the edge of the field.

She quickly shoved the empty double-barreled musket back into its holster.

With a swift movement of his hands behind his back, two tactical straight knives, each about a meter long and gleaming with a ghostly blue light, appeared in his hands.

Leaning forward, two blue trails of flame shot out from the soles of his shoes.

Using this thrust, she transformed into a blur, actively facing the ten-meter-tall power-body.

Two dark blue blades crossed in the air.

The right fist, swung with the power of the secret body, was sliced ​​by the blade.

Two extremely deep cuts were left on the tough skin.

The high-frequency vibrations attached to the blade forcefully sliced ​​through the hard body.

But the next moment, the power-wielding body unleashed a sweeping left leg strike.

The immense force compresses the air, creating wind pressure that is visible to the naked eye.

Unable to gain leverage in mid-air, the woman in the leather jacket crossed her two swords in front of her.

boom.

She flew out like a kite with a broken string.

It tumbled twice in the air before landing, carving two deep furrows, each over ten meters long, into the bluestone slab before finally stopping.

The woman in the leather jacket shook her slightly numb arms, her gaze towards the power-wielding figure growing even more fervent.

"That's awesome! Let's do it again!"

"Stop."

Aye's voice suddenly rang out, stopping the leather-clad woman who was about to charge again.

The woman in the leather jacket glanced at him and pursed her lips.

"Boring..."

The blue flames on the soles of his shoes died down, and he relaxed, slowly walking back to A-Ye's side.

Ah Ye looked down at the hole in his chest where the dark short sword had pierced him.

The edges of the fabric were stained with the blood he used to fight back.

He frowned and reached out to tear off the piece of cloth.

"A perfectly good haute couture piece, ruined." His tone was tinged with regret.

Then, he looked up at Lin Bai.

The arrogance that once filled those dark red eyes had faded considerably, replaced by a gaze that scrutinized its own kind.

"Your puppet is special."

"My Blood Explosion, not just any Tom, Dick, or Harry can stop it."

He took two steps forward and stopped at a relatively safe distance.

Lin Bai didn't reply.

From the shadows beneath his feet, a dozen black shadow tentacles emerged from the dark figure.

Like a snake, it moved silently across the ground, protecting Lin Bai in the middle.

The Power Body merely withdrew its fist, its massive body still positioned horizontally in the middle.

The dark red lava patterns flickered in and out, as if they were breathing.

"Continuing to fight won't benefit anyone," A-Ye shrugged. "Want to get to know each other?"

Lin Bai looked at him, confirming the seriousness in the other's eyes.

"Lin Bai." After a pause, he added, "Alchemist."

As soon as she finished speaking, Honglian burst out laughing.

"You say you're an alchemist?"

"Have you ever seen an alchemist summon a ten-meter-tall, muscular monster to engage in close-quarters combat?"

She ejected the bullet from the gun she hadn't finished firing, and the two dark gold-colored shell casings fell onto the bluestone bricks with a crisp, clinking sound.

Ah Ye didn't seem to care much about Lin Bai's profession; he straightened the collar of his trench coat.

"Night Owl, noble vampire." He bowed slightly, performing a standard old-fashioned aristocratic salute.

"From the Dark Moon Realm."

Honglian stepped forward, bumped her shoulder against Yexiao, and stood casually.

"Red Lotus, the Witcher." She raised her chin.

"From the Holy Light Realm."

Lin Bai's eyes froze when he heard the last three words.

He didn't care about the Dark Moon Realm or the Holy Light Realm.

My attention was completely drawn to the words "vampire" and "witch hunter".

In any normal worldview, putting these two words together always results in a fight to the death.

One is a vampire, and the other specializes in killing vampires.

"Vampires." Lin Bai's gaze fell on Night Owl's pale face. "And witchers."

His gaze then shifted to the pair of silver muskets on Honglian's legs.

"You two, teaming up?" Lin Bai's tone carried an undisguised absurdity.

It felt like watching a wolf and a sheep sitting at a table, plotting how to steal a bear's honey.

Night Owl sensed the surprise in Lin Bai's tone.

He didn't feel embarrassed at all; instead, he smiled.

He stretched out an arm, wrapped it around Honglian's waist, and pulled her tightly into his embrace.

Honglian leaned against Night Owl's shoulder, placing one hand skillfully on Night Owl's chest.

He even poked the hole that had been punctured earlier with his finger.

"What?" Night Owl raised an eyebrow, a hint of smugness in his dark red eyes.

"Isn't it obvious?"

Lin Bai: ......

This is not just not obvious, it's downright inhumane.

It's not just about forming teams.

These two are actually a couple?

A bunch of things to complain about flashed through Lin Bai's mind.

The Witcher falls in love with a vampire?

What if I accidentally pull out a silver cross and stab my husband to death while I'm sleeping at night?

Or is this some kind of fun?

Ning Wei, standing behind Lin Bai, also looked dazed.

She didn't know what vampires were, nor did she know what a witcher represented.

But she could sense the completely opposite, even mutually repulsive, energy fluctuations emanating from the two people.

One is extreme darkness and blood, the other is destructive purity and fire.

These two types of people hugged each other, and surprisingly, they didn't explode on the spot.

"Alright." Lin Bai was too lazy to care about other people's private lives.

With a wave of his hand, his ten-meter-tall power-body transformed into countless points of light, instantly converging into his body.

The oppressive atmosphere in the arena immediately decreased by half.

But he did not retract his Dark Body.

We still need to be on guard.

"Since you don't want to fight anymore, let's get down to business." Lin Bai's gaze passed over them and looked into the depths of the arena.

"What's going on with this place?"

When Night Owl saw that Lin Bai had taken in that big guy, he knew that this was also a way of making a statement.

He released Honglian and took out a pocket watch from his trench coat pocket to look at it.

"We got in two hours earlier than you." Night Owl stuffed the pocket watch back into the pocket.

He then gave a wry smile.

"What happened... I don't know!"

......

Night Owl spread his hands, and the hem of his trench coat swayed.

A hint of helplessness shone through his dark red eyes.

"The walls have been smashed, the ground dug up. This godforsaken place isn't even home to a bug."

"Otherwise, we wouldn't have treated this thing as an enemy and destroyed it the moment it appeared."

As he spoke, he glanced at the butcher on the ground.

Lin Bai's gaze swept over the towering black stone pillars around him, finally settling on Ning Wei, who was standing to the side in a daze.

He raised his chin and gestured towards the center of the arena.

"Let's go take a look."

Ning Wei swallowed hard and jogged forward.

Ning Wei squatted down in the center of the field.

He carefully felt along the seams of the bluestone bricks with his fingers.

The stone bricks have a smooth surface, but a thick layer of dark grime has accumulated in the grooves at the joints.

He drew his dagger, scraped off a little powder, and smelled it.

It's very faint; it's been too long and has completely dried up.
