The brave Simmel wants to resign

(Oh no...!)

Just then, the entire corridor seemed to fold, the walls snapped in half, the red carpet wrapped in broken planks collapsed downwards, and dust exploded into a thick fog.

The floor beneath Yigu's feet tilted, and he grabbed the door frame beside him, hearing the sharp crack of steel bars snapping from all directions.

Unfortunately, Cheng was struck in the back by the falling beam, smashed through the floor, and disappeared into the dust below.

"Senior Libra!?"

Having barely managed to steady himself, Yi Gu saw his senior disappear without a trace, and instinctively cried out in surprise.

But at the same time, out of the corner of his eye, he saw the short, cursed spirit rushing towards him.

That's fast!!

Yi Gu quickly drew his sword, and almost instinctively, his magical power poured out from his wrist to envelop the blade.

Sizzle! ————

Before the cloth could be unwrapped, the blade tore through the straps and arced into the palm strike of the volcanic spirit.

"Um!?"

"Waaah!"

Both sides exclaimed in surprise at the same time.

The volcanic spirit's voice was clearly surprised, while Yi Gu was in pain from the surprise attack on his wrist.

Bang!!------

The clash of magical powers erupted in a burst of dark flames, and both sides retreated simultaneously.

However, the volcano only retreated less than half a step before regaining its balance and charging forward again, while Yigu staggered backward and almost fell over.

"Urika!"

Before I could think too much, the results of my training with Simmel over the past few weeks were immediately apparent.

[So worrying!]

The Queen of Curses, who had been sleeping most of the time, was awakened. A massive torrent of cursed power covered the narrow corridor inside and out, and even the volcanic cursed spirits seemed to stiffen for a moment.

Click click click...

The air behind Yigu felt as if a hole had been torn open.

The Queen of Curses emerged from the crack, her hands wider than five skeletal bones side by side, her claws outstretched, her fingertips almost touching the walls on either side of the corridor, embedding themselves in the walls, causing lime and broken planks to fall down in a rustling sound.

Instantly, radial cracks appeared in the ceiling, and the entire floor groaned under the strain.

Upon noticing this, Yi Gu's expression changed.

"Rika! Don't show it all the way through! It'll collapse!"

The hand paused for a moment, as if hesitating, but in that brief moment of hesitation, the water clock had already swiftly reached Yi Gu.

He lunged forward, his right hand, fingers together, thrusting straight into the sacrum of the face.

"!!"

He suddenly turned his head to dodge, and the knife slashed diagonally from the lower left to the upper right.

The water clock merely flicked its wrist to block, the edge of its arm striking the blade, sparks flying everywhere.

The blade of the yak bone veil tilted to one side, and the feet retreated step by step.

Clang! Clang! Crack!

The two exchanged blows for five or six rounds in the narrow corridor, their spells and hand blades flashing, leaving charred scratches and knife marks on the walls.

If it continues to be suppressed like this, there is no doubt that the sacral bone will reach its limit first.

but--

During this time, Rika was able to control her body shape and revert to human form.

【Worry too! ! 】

scandium!!!

The Cursed Spirit Rika is quite convenient, and its size can be freely changed, even reaching the size of a Bone Hand in its smallest form.

Now, Rika improves her mobility by shrinking her size to half that of the ooze pot, and engages in a battle with it.

With the addition of Rika, whose stats are extremely high, the pressure on Yigu has decreased dramatically.

—That's how it should have been.

boom!!

"Is that all?! Humans?!"

The scene suddenly froze.

The water clock hovered in mid-air, its left arm bent at the elbow and slashed backward, the elbow tip striking Li Xiang's face, while its right leg swiftly kicked forward, slamming into the slashing blade.

Fighting against two people simultaneously, the steel blade and the cursed power collided with a deafening roar, and sparks flew everywhere!

【Waaah!】

Rika was sent flying by the elbow, and even Otsuko couldn't withstand the force, his hands swinging uncontrollably upwards, causing the city gate to open wide.

"I thought there was something special about it—"

A sinister smile appeared on the volcano's head.

"Special grade?"

That's all there is to it.

Chapter 83 Flower Queen: Children, I will survive.

Even after summoning Rika, Otsuko was shocked to find that he was no match for the clepsydra.

Even in a two-on-one situation, they were countered. No, wait, this reaction... did the opponent already know that they had Rika?

The other party is—

Before Yigu could give any further thought.

Lean back, and the water clock will make your body parallel to the ground.

next moment--

boom!!----!--

The dome-shaped volcano at the top of its head spews flames like a propeller!

The crimson beam of light enveloped Rika and forced her back. At the same time, the water clock used this thrust to launch itself into the air like a missile.

The flames shimmered, the figure flickered, and in the next scene, he had already arrived in front of Yi Gu!

A single-leg kick left an imprint on the sacrum of the chest.

Click...

A dent appeared in his chest, emitting a series of clicking sounds.

"Cough!"

An uncontrollable burning sensation surged upwards from his throat, and fragments of internal organs gushed out along with blood.

Outside the hotel.

Boom! —

A sharp white light flashed, and the middle-layer glass window shattered with a crash.

Thick pillars of fire gushed out from the breach, their flames swirling and soaring upwards before exploding outwards at their maximum distance, scattering across the sky.

However...

Whether it was flying shards of glass or flames, they all fell down after hitting the extremely dark outer layer of "canopy".

"Cough... Ugh..."

Leaning against the cracked wall, brick fragments embedded in the cracks, Yi Guyou pressed his chest tightly.

The overwhelming, sweet, and pungent smell was irrepressible. Accompanied by violent coughing, blood and foam continuously spilled from the corners of his mouth, meandering down his chin, soaking his entire chin and chest in crimson.

(Oops....)

(Breathing... Adjusting breathing... Using incantation...)

This was the first time Yi Gu had ever suffered such a severe blow.

Although Simmel is very strong, he will not use his full strength against Ebony. Every seemingly terrifying attack is actually calculated so that Ebony can barely dodge it.

But things are different now.

The cursed spirit before him... clearly harbored murderous intent towards him.

If Yi Gu hadn't subconsciously used his magical power to protect his chest, his lungs would have been completely destroyed, and his heart might have even burst from the immense pressure.

He is now using his magical power to treat his wounds, but... the results are minimal.

At the same time, he also had to keep an eye on Rika's rampage caused by anger, lest the uncontrollable Rika destroy the entire building and crush him to death underneath.

tread.

As the water clock approached, Yi Gu's breathing became rapid and disordered.

Peng!

A bloodied fist slammed into his knee, urging his trembling muscles to calm down.

Get up! Get up! Get up! Get up!

The water clock raised its hand, and the flame gathered in its palm—

call--

Snapped.

They tore through broken beams, trampled through floorboards, and swept through the dust and mist!
