As Abigail, I caused trouble in infinite space.

Chapter 137 The First Battle

At noon, as usual, Shu Ouma carried his lunchbox to his secret little base, a sealed-off area where no one usually came. He thoroughly enjoyed the feeling of being alone.

But today, there are other people here.

Shu Ouma arrived at his secret base, where he saw a burly man in knight armor who seemed to be searching for something in the room.

"you......"

Shu Ouma couldn't help but cry out. At that moment, the burly man turned around and saw his fierce expression. Shu Ouma showed a look of fear.

"Hmm? Could you be Shu Ouma?" The burly man's rough voice reached Shu Ouma's ears.

"I am Shu Ouma, why do you know me?"

"Damn it, this isn't what we agreed on. Has something changed?" The burly man scratched his head, looking somewhat troubled.

"that......"

"I'm asking you, have you ever seen a girl? A girl in a red dance costume. As for her name, I remember it was Yuzuriha Inori."

Upon hearing the burly man's question, Shu Ouma shook his head.

"No one usually comes here. You mean Yuzuriha Inori, could it be...?"

"This is really troublesome. Could it be that Yuzuriha Inori has already been captured by the other side? But judging from the situation, it seems that they are also looking for her. Where could she have gone?"

The burly man continued talking to himself, completely ignoring Ouma Shu, who stood in front of him with a troubled expression.

"Excuse me, are you referring to Ms. Yuzuriha Inori, the singer from Egoist? I'm a fan of hers. Do you know Ms. Yuzuriha Inori? Could I meet her?"

At this moment, Ouma Shu, slightly excited, loudly asked the burly man a question.

The burly man turned his head to look at Ouma Shu.

"You brat, stop talking nonsense. I don't know Yuzuriha Inori. I'm just here to find her at someone else's request. Since that little girl isn't here, I'm leaving. Also, here's a piece of advice: go back quickly and don't wander around for the next few days. Otherwise, you might die."

After saying that, the burly man walked past Ouma Shu and prepared to leave, but at that moment, he suddenly made a dodging motion.

"Get out here, you sneaky thing!"

However, even though the burly man shouted like that, no one appeared in front of him.

"Invisibility? That's quite a troublesome ability."

The burly man muttered to himself, and just then, he suddenly kicked backward, and a small figure appeared in front of him.

This small figure is none other than Xu Lili.

"Oh, you're from the opposing team, right? I didn't expect you to be a little girl. Judging from your upgrade path, you're probably an assassin type. To be honest, an opponent like you is quite troublesome, but now that you've revealed yourself, don't blame me, you can just die right here!"

After saying that, the burly man jumped up and slammed down towards where Xu Lili was. However, Xu Lili dodged the attack with a slight backward jump.

Furthermore, after dodging the attack, they concealed themselves and disappeared from the burly man's sight.

Suddenly, the burly man took out a bag of what looked like sand from his pocket and threw it around.

Just then, Xu Lili appeared behind the burly man.

"Little guy, you probably don't know this, but in the previous world, I was almost killed by an invisible monster. So now, to deal with those invisible guys, I always keep some developing powder on hand. Can't be invisible now, hahaha!"

The burly man laughed loudly, but Xu Lili didn't seem flustered. She looked at the developing powder shimmering on her body and then revealed her figure.

"Oh, are you planning to fight me head-on? Assassins are all doomed in the light, but I am a legitimate warrior, a knight. Do you want to fight someone like me? Then, I will grant your wish."

"Brutal charge!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the burly man charged towards Xu Lili like an angry wild boar.

Faced with the burly man's charge, Xu Lili attempted to dodge by sidestepping, but the burly man nimbly changed direction and continued to charge at Xu Lili.

Just as Xu Lili was about to be hit by the burly man, even Ouma Shu, who was watching from the sidelines, was so frightened that he shouted, "No!"

However, something unexpected happened to the burly man. Xu Lili nimbly bypassed his charge and slashed him in the back with her knife.

Clang...

The burly man stopped at the sound of metal clashing and looked at Xu Lili with a smile.

"My armor is impervious to blades and spears. You think you can harm me by dodging my attacks? Today you will die here. Ah! Earthshaking Strike!"

The burly man jumped high into the air, clenched his fists, and then slammed them down forcefully in the direction where Xu Lili was.

thump...

The loud noise echoed in the dilapidated room, and the floor where Xu Lili was standing was cracked. As for Xu Lili, she was naturally not hit by this heavy blow.

Xu Lili jumped up to dodge the attack and threw a dart. The dart flew towards the burly man's exposed head. The man quickly tilted his head to avoid the dart, but it was too late. The dart grazed his face, leaving a bloody gash.

"You've got something, kid. Looks like I'll have to get serious when I fight you. Ah............!"

Immediately, something seemed to have changed about the burly man; his physique appeared to have grown considerably larger.

"Take this! A furious strike!"

Suddenly, the burly man's speed increased dramatically, and in the blink of an eye, he was in front of Xu Lili and threw a punch at her.

Xu Lili quickly used her twin swords to block in front of her, but she still couldn't withstand the enormous impact of the force, and she was sent flying.

In mid-air, Xu Lili quickly adjusted her body and landed on her feet, but she still slid two or three meters after landing.

However, at that moment, the burly man rushed over again and threw another heavy punch at Xu Lili. This time, the burly man's attack missed.

Xu Lili's body moved like a nimble kitten, twisting her body to dodge the burly man's attack, and taking advantage of the moment when the man's old strength was not exhausted and new strength had not yet been generated, she launched a series of attacks on him.

"Useless little kitty. As long as you can't break through my armor, you can't do any harm to me, hahahaha!"

After saying that, the burly man tried to hug Xu Lili, but she jumped back and dodged him.

Standing at a distance, looking at the burly man's full armor, Xu Lili frowned. She didn't have any particularly powerful attack methods; her enhancements were mainly focused on agility. And it was clear that this burly man's enhancements were more advanced than hers.

Considering that continuing to fight this burly man would be pointless, and that Yuzuriha Inori didn't seem to be there either, Xu Lili made a quick decision and turned to retreat.

Seeing Xu Lili turn and leave, the burly man chased after her, but by the time he got there, Xu Lili had already disappeared.

"That's why I hate these agile guys. If I can't beat them, they all run faster than rabbits, and I can't catch them. Forget it, let's go back first. At least I know that one of the enemy is an agile assassin."

After saying that, the burly man left the sealed-off area. As for Ouma Shu, who was still in the room, that was no longer something the burly man needed to worry about.

Hiding in a corner of the room, Shu Ouma witnessed this brief exchange of blows, though the fight didn't seem particularly intense. But for Shu, an ordinary student, it was still quite a shock.

After the two of them left, Ouma Shu emerged from the corner.

"What exactly is going on?"

Shu Ouma muttered to himself, but no one could answer him.

"Oh no, time is running out."

At this moment, Shu Ouma realized that he didn't have much time left to eat lunch, so he quickly ate the bento he had brought and left this place, which was somewhat dangerous for him.

Finally, he turned and took one last look at his secret base.

This might be the only time I'll ever experience something this thrilling.

Shu Ouma thought to himself.

...............

At this moment, outside the door of a house, several soldiers followed the trail of blood to this place.

boom......

One of the soldiers suddenly kicked the door open.

Inside the room, Xu Tianyun was studying a book when she suddenly heard a loud bang. Xu Tianyun immediately put the book away and turned to look at the soldiers who had rushed into the room.

"Tell me, where did you hide the fugitive?"

Among the soldiers, a bald officer wearing glasses looked at Xu Tianyun and asked him a question.

"What fugitive? I don't know what you're talking about."

Just as Xu Tianyun finished speaking, the soldiers behind the officer raised their guns.

"Stop making excuses. The bloodstains have already spread outside your room. There's no doubt the fugitive is in your house. Speak up, harboring a fugitive is a serious crime, punishable by desecration. I'll give you three seconds, 3, 2, 1..."

Listen, the officer began the countdown, and Xu Tianyun had no doubt that these ruthless bastards would kill her on the spot.

As the countdown was about to end, Xu Tianyun suddenly grabbed a water glass from the table and splashed it at the soldiers, quickly chanting:

"Water spirit, heed my call, transform into a sharp, unwavering force to pierce my enemies! Water Arrow!"

As Xu Tianyun finished chanting the incantation, the water droplets scattered in the air suddenly transformed into tiny spikes, which then shot towards the soldiers.

These spikes weren't very powerful, being just a low-level spell, but even so, one of the soldiers was riddled with holes because he couldn't dodge in time.

"Damn it, shoot!" the officer roared, and the soldiers didn't hesitate to aim at Xu Tianyun and fire at him. However, Xu Tianyun had already jumped out of the window and left.

"Wind spirit, heed my call, transform into gentle hands to lift my body. Featherfall Technique!"

As the wind blew, Xu Tianyun's body suddenly slowed down and slowly floated to the ground.

"Why are these officers at my door? And what's with the fugitives? Did they discover I stole the Void Genome?"

Xu Tianyun didn't know exactly what had happened, but one thing she knew was that she had to run. Although she had learned some low-level spells, she wasn't very skilled at using them. She had only managed to catch them off guard just now. In a real fight, these soldiers could kill her with just one shot.

"What bad luck. I was hoping to make a fortune quietly by following the plot without being discovered, but I didn't expect to be exposed so quickly. I never underestimate any government agency."

He fled through the streets, soldiers in pursuit. Every now and then, the soldiers would fire at Xu Tianyun, but according to the law of "smoke indicates no injury, escape means no bullets," these soldiers truly failed to hit Xu Tianyun even once.

However, during the escape, Xu Tianyun realized something: he was, after all, just an ordinary person, and even with some magical abilities, his physical strength was still inferior to that of a soldier. He was already panting, but the soldier's speed showed no signs of slowing down.

"Fire spirits! Hear my call, transform into mighty flames to repel my enemies. Fireball!"

As soon as she finished speaking, a fireball appeared in Xu Tianyun's hand. Without even looking at the direction of the soldiers behind her, Xu Tianyun threw the fireball behind her and then turned into a small alley.

At the same time, he continued chanting: "Dark elves! Hear my call, shroud me in darkness. Shadow!"

As the incantation was finished, a layer of darkness enveloped Xu Tianyun's body. Xu Tianyun quickly hid in a corner, almost completely blending into the shadows.

The soldiers chased into the alley and passed right through it, completely unaware of Xu Tianyun hiding in the corner.

Watching the soldiers leave the alley, Xu Tianyun breathed a sigh of relief. Only after she could no longer hear their voices did she emerge from the shadows.

At this moment, Xu Tianyun was in a very bad state. He was covered in cold sweat. He had just used so many spells in a row, and the magic power consumed by maintaining the Shadow Spell at the end had left him in a state of magic exhaustion.

Clenching her fists, Xu Tianyun said with some resentment:
