At this moment, Norton's fist had just slowly changed from its crimson state back to flesh color, and the terrifying fire elemental aura was also gradually subsiding.
He has once again become an unremarkable middle-aged man with stubble!
"Damn it!!!"
Ockham clutched his stomach and struggled to fly out of the cave!
But he dared not face Norton again, instead flying towards the Arbitrator: "Save me! The two of us, no, the three of us together, can definitely defeat that Norton guy!!!"
"If he dies, it will become incredibly easy for your Mercenary Guild to gradually devour the Hundred Cities Federation!"
Okami's face was full of resentment. Norton's punch hadn't held back at all; if it had been just a fraction off, Okami would have died on the spot. Even now, it would be difficult for him to return to his peak condition without several years of recovery time.
Norton floated in mid-air, coldly staring at the arbitrator, and said, "Our Hundred Cities Federation is cleaning house, and your Mercenary Guild wants to stop us?"
The arbitrator is also in a difficult position. Originally, keeping this matter hidden and secretly taking over "Ockham" would have been the best option to maximize his interests.
But now that Norton has stepped forward as the Prime Minister of the Hundred Cities Federation, it's pointless for him to try and poach talent from this powerful figure in front of him!
Norton's "Explosive Power" would be incredibly powerful even in the Odyssey plane, making some of the local supernatural families extremely wary of it, let alone on the New Frey Continent.
"Norton, how about we, the Mercenary Guild, give Ockham some face and let him go?"
"You know how difficult it is to produce a fourth-tier expert."
"Now is the time when we need manpower. He will be useful on the battlefield against the natives!"
Norton wouldn't listen at all. "Get out of the way, or I'll hit you too!"
He stared intently at Ockham, who was hiding behind the arbitrator.
Dick and the others were stunned. In their minds, fourth-tier powerhouses were high and mighty beings. When had they ever seen someone in such an embarrassing situation as Ockham?
Especially Dick, who was just begging Ockham to let him go, but now the tables have turned and Ockham is begging for mercy!
Life is indeed full of surprises!
Norton's utterly disrespectful approach angered the arbitrator, who was not a piece of trash like Ockham; in the fourth tier, he was one of the best.
"So, you're determined to fight me today?"
The arbitrator's tone became unpredictable, and the surrounding moisture was growing thicker!
This is a sign of the continuous accumulation of water!
Even the oppressive aura that Norton exuded was significantly weakened by the changes in the arbitrator.
Yang Xi stroked his chin. "A clash between water and fire elements? That's quite interesting!"
The more fiercely these Osiders fight, the more advantageous it is for the Blue Star human race. It would be best if they all died, then he would be incredibly happy to dismantle them later!
"If a battle were to break out between you and me, the implications would be entirely different!"
Upon hearing the arbitrator's words, Norton's expression became somewhat unnatural. The relationship between the Hundred Cities Federation and the Mercenary Guild was not as hostile as that between the Bernadotte Empire and the Hundred Cities Federation.
Is it really worth it to avenge my son?
Even if you kill Ockham, he won't come back to life.
But Norton quickly put those thoughts aside.
The key to his explosive power lies in clear thinking. Hesitation and timidity at this moment will only make it harder for him to improve his strength in the future, which will have a greater impact on the Hundred Cities Federation.
Although the Arbitrator's subtle and profound techniques are troublesome, they are not a threat to him!
"I will kill him today!"
With a thunderous roar, the fire elementals cheered and leaped around Norton, forming a massive vortex of flames that seemed to connect heaven and earth.
A quarter of Bright City is almost illuminated!
"That'll have to wait and see what you're capable of!"
A water elemental dragon emerged from the arbitrator's body, forming a perfect sphere around him!
In the distance, the funeral had just ended, and the numerous family forces that had not yet left all looked in this direction.
Seeing the two forces clashing with such power, they couldn't help but hold their breath.
The unexpected events surrounding the Keith family are truly one after another!
405, it still depends on me, Yang Xi, to end this!
The fierce battle between the arbitrator and Norton is an intense clash between two profound laws.
The Linglong Profound Technique is incredibly smooth, and it is extremely powerful in both attack and defense. However, Norton's Burst Profound Technique is not to be underestimated. Every time he throws a punch, it is as if a huge volcano is erupting, with endless lava pouring onto the Arbitrator's smooth bubble defense!
Although Norton is stronger, the Arbitrator is also very experienced in combat, making it difficult to determine a winner in a short time.
Chris smiled kindly at Yang Xi and the other three, shielding them from the aftershocks of the battle.
For him, these third-tier limit powerhouses are excellent "food." As long as they are transformed into the Deep Blue race, Chris can become stronger by devouring them.
Of course, the effect of the third-order limit of the Deep Blue race is limited for Chris.
The most "replenishing" group is the fourth-tier Deep Blue race.
As for the seedlings with fifth-tier potential, he currently has no way to devour them—he's afraid they'll burst from the strain.
"What are you standing there for? Let's all attack!"
Ockham glared at Chris with annoyance. Although he looked down on Deep Blue Bug, he knew that every bit of strength he had at this moment gave him a better chance of survival.
Chris squinted and said, "That's not a good idea."
He wouldn't be foolish enough to go up there. To be honest, he had only recently broken through to the fourth rank. Although he had directly devoured the Deep Blue Commander, his strength should be stronger than that of a newly promoted fourth rank.
"You Deep Blue Clan, you know about these things too?"
Ockham's face was full of disdain. In countless planes, the Deep Blue race was the most despicable of beings.
Come to think of it, how many good things are there that can abandon their mother's body and embrace the intelligent life of the deep blue?
Chris was unfazed by Ockham's verbal attacks. He hadn't become a member of the Deep Blue race for his own selfish desires, and these guys wouldn't understand anyway.
Seeing that Chris was still standing there without anything, Ockham knew he couldn't get the guy to do anything, so he snorted and stopped bothering him, rushing back into the battlefield to assist the Arbitrator from the side.
The arbitrator was already at a disadvantage, but he never asked for help and instead chose to confront Norton head-on.
After all, he holds a high position in the Mercenary Association, and he still needs to save face.
But if Ockham comes up to help himself, then it has nothing to do with him.
The two began to cooperate without tacit agreement. The arbitrator also stopped playing defensively and started to send dragons flying out from the surface of the bubble, viciously tearing at Norton.
Norton smashed a dragon to pieces with a single punch and shouted, "Is this the kind of person your Mercenary Guild is? You don't even have the courage to fight me one-on-one?"
The arbitrator remained silent, but his methods became increasingly ruthless. He was incredibly ruthless; after all, in this world, it's all about the winner taking all, and as long as he won, who among those present would dare to say a bad word about him!
So what if we gang up on you?
Ockham had just been badly beaten, and his wounds were still throbbing with pain. He said with a face full of resentment, "Aren't you the one who bullies the weak? I've only been at the fourth rank for a few years!"
"Heh, you and I have a blood feud over the killing of my son, so how can you say I'm bullying the weak?"
The three of them cursed and shouted as the sky gradually brightened, and even the first light of dawn appeared in the distance.
The Keith family's ancestral lands were almost completely razed to the ground in this fourth-order battle.
Fortunately, because of Dick and his group's previous intrusion, the life crystals of the ancestral hall had already been packed up, and since the secret vault was underground, the loss of other houses and buildings would not have a significant impact on the Keith family.
This battle thrilled Yang Xi, but he could only obediently play the role of Duran.
He looked at Chris, who, as the "only" fourth-tier warrior who had not participated in the battle, would influence the course of the entire battle with his every move.
Clearly, both the arbitrators from the Mercenary Guild and the general councilors from the Hundred Cities Federation understood this principle.
Taking advantage of a lull in the fighting, Ockham yelled at Chris, "Aren't you going to make a move?! Didn't you say you were cooperating with the Mercenary Guild?"
Chris said calmly, "Unlike you, I cannot interfere in your battle without His Excellency the Arbitrator's explicit consent."
He added, with a deliberately cutting edge, "After all, I have to consider his dignity as a fourth-tier powerhouse!"
"Hahaha, well said! Little brother from the Deep Blue Clan over there, no matter what deal you made with the Mercenary Guild, as long as you lend a hand to this old man, I'll give you double the reward!"
Seeing that he was slowly losing his advantage, Norton was not stupid and decisively extended an olive branch to Chris. At this point, who cared whether he was a member of the Deep Blue Clan or not?
Chris was somewhat tempted by the idea, but ultimately gave up.
His stage will not be limited to the Blue Star plane. In the future, he will lead the Deep Blue race, a branch of humanity, to countless planes, allowing the civilization of the Blue Star human race to flourish in various planes.
Offending the Mercenary Guild, which spans countless dimensions, for this is extremely unwise.
He smiled but didn't say anything, standing still.
Norton said no more and focused all his attention on the battle, preparing for a protracted war.
Fourth-tier powerhouses are different from third-tier powerhouses. With the help of the profound laws, they can mobilize the corresponding elements and magic power that are free in the outside world for their own use. Therefore, it is possible for a great battle to last for seven days and seven nights!
The Amethyst Serpent and General Iron Tower have not yet shown up, it seems they are determined not to get involved in this mess.
So now, he can only rely on himself!
boom!
Norton punched the delicate bubble that the Arbitrator had placed in front of Occam, and the flames and the bubble collided, creating waves.
The surface of this delicate bubble rippled irregularly under the high temperature and impact, as if it were on the verge of collapse, but it ultimately held on!
Ockham breathed a sigh of relief. That old dog Arbitrator really knows how to use a tortoise shell defense!
Norton was not discouraged; now it was a test of patience.
Just as the three fourth-tier fighters on the field decided to play it safe, Yang Xi, who was watching from below, was not happy.
First, playing for too long is too boring; second, he has already deduced the outcome that is most beneficial to him at present.
Norton's appearance is undoubtedly related to Walker's arrangements, so his victory would be most beneficial to the Keith family.
This is from the perspective of the intelligence mission. From Yang Xi's own interests, he needs to find the profound meaning chain on the body of a dead fourth-tier powerhouse.
Therefore, Ockham is the player with the highest probability of death on the field.
After all, Norton is the strongest, and even if he can't win, he can run away. The Arbitrator, on the other hand, has a unique and exquisite skill, making it difficult for him to die.
On the contrary, Ockham, who plays music, seems to be the most vulnerable. Yang Xi thinks that taking him by surprise should have a good effect!
"Excuse me, sir, you who plays the flute."
