He patted Terena's head and said:

"This is also what I want to tell you: the physical strain of using your brain to the fullest extent is also invisible and intangible, so remember to cultivate good habits."

Theraena's personal side quest "A Brilliant Life" completion rate +25%, current completion rate 75%.

……

Tonight, Lyon was supposed to do a divination for Langley, but he was in a hurry to get home last night (since he had to go to Iris's place), so he took Terena back to his own house first to get the more complicated divination tools.

He originally carried around small props for deception, but considering that the divination he was about to perform was about a past life that he didn't know, he decided to go all out this time and complete a complicated ritual for Langley to see, so that he could completely fool her first.

Then he asked Langley to try writing down those divinely inspired syllables, hoping he might be able to decipher some of them.

However, just as he brought Therena back to a place not far from Colt Street, an accident occurred.

Several enormous fireballs fell from the sky and landed in the middle of the street.

In the middle of the street were several adventurers dressed as warriors, some wielding swords to slash at fireballs, others dodging them quickly.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

A series of explosions pierced through countless small houses along the street, blasting out countless pieces of broken walls and wooden blocks. The shockwave swept in all directions, and passersby covered their heads and fled.

"Oh my god, the Western soldiers are fighting with our local adventurers."

"These guys are really courting death, daring to make a move in the capital."

Some onlookers started complaining from a distance.

Leon's eyes narrowed as he spotted a strange yet familiar figure, who was perched lightly on a rooftop to the side, quietly observing the adventurers' battle on the street.

Her figure was tall and lithe, with long arms reaching towards the roof. Judging from her attire, she was clearly from Xibang. Her shoes had three-colored feather patterns, her dark trousers were loose, and her emerald green top was tight and fitted.

As for that face, its features were well-proportioned and possessed a wild beauty. On its head were a pair of winding, colorful horns, and its light wheat-colored, lustrous skin reflected the moonlight like a polished gemstone.

It turns out to be Camille, the second female lead of the third part, who possesses ancestral dragon-human bloodline.

Terena noticed Leon's gaze and tightened her grip on his small hand:

"You've taken a fancy to that pretty woman?"

No, I was just looking around.

Lyon was being hypocritical.

However, he has no plans to contact Camille for the time being, as his schedule is too full lately and he cannot free up any extra time.

Furthermore, Camille's personality is quite difficult to handle. Although she is also very innocent, it is estimated that once the relationship is good, her style of action will be bolder, wilder, more aggressive, and more possessive than Ophie Marceau's.

Moreover, her future death crisis has little to do with the present, so there is no need to forcibly change her fate. Therefore, he does not intend to provoke her for the time being.

Fortunately, Lyon's house was a bit further away and wasn't affected by the adventurers' battle. Just as he was preparing to retreat, a light voice suddenly came from not far away—

"Huh, what a coincidence to run into someone like you here, Leon Belon."

The sound was very soft, and only his current agility could hear it.

Moreover, the voice wasn't Camille, whom he didn't want to provoke for the time being; it was another voice he didn't want to hear.

Mshifisu!

Lyon turned around abruptly and found a short, slender, dark figure standing quietly at the end of the street. The figure's chin was covered, and a pair of beautiful, agate-like eyes were staring intently at him, with a subtle smile in the corner of the eye.

Out of the corner of my eye, I could see a magician dressed in a silver-white suit, looking exceptionally neat, floating above the roof on the other side. It was Moriarty.

As for Durum, the other curse master of the Silver Badges, I didn't see him.

Because of the battle between adventurers ahead, pedestrians on both sides of the street were running away.

Only Leon and M'hifisu, holding Terena, stood silently like rocks beneath the tide, facing each other.

Lyon hadn't expected that after only two battles, M'shifisu not only remembered him but had also clearly investigated his appearance.

Could it be that they failed to assassinate Ophimasso and are now planning to attack themselves?

If they had been paying any attention, they would have noticed their close interaction with Ophimosa last time.

"What a coincidence! To run into two people brazenly appearing here. Aren't you afraid of being discovered by the capital's garrison and never being able to escape? You have several thousand gold coins on your bounty, don't you?"

"A small reward is nothing."

Moriarty, riding on his wand, floated down from the rooftop.

"I went to your house to look for you, but I came back empty-handed and was really disappointed. But I didn't expect to see you here. This is such a pleasant surprise."

"I am merely a third-tier cultivator. I wonder why two experts from the Silver Badge Group would come specifically to find me?"

Lyon said calmly.

He didn't run immediately because M'shifisu was very agile and far superior to the half-baked Kekeqi in both skill and experience.

Therefore, he cannot run ahead of time; if he does, he will be intercepted by M'shifisu.

"Of course, we have a big deal to discuss. How about it, would you like to come with us? Leon Belon."

"What if I refuse?"

"Then I'm sorry, we'll have to break your legs and take you away first."

Mshifisu drew his sword quietly from behind him, seemingly ready to strike at any moment.

Terena witnessed this scene and knew that it was very dangerous. She didn't say anything, but her eyes darted around as she quickly racked her brains to think of a way to help Leon.

"Heh, I'd like to see if you have the ability to do it."

Lyon took light steps and began to walk slowly.

Chapter 286 Flash Showdown

M'shifisu kept waiting for Leon to appear, but Leon just kept moving around.

She spoke casually, but she didn't underestimate Lyon.

"What, aren't you going to use your most proficient phantom-transformation movement technique?"

Mshifisu, carrying a fifth-tier magic sword, slowly approached.

"You are joking. This is the capital, my territory. Do you think I'm afraid of outsiders like you?"

Lyon slowly walked to the side of the street and responded with a smile.

"Heh, how do you know we haven't done any business with Wangdu?"

Moriarty smiled faintly. He didn't rush to cast a spell. Instead, he leaned against a pillar and casually awaited the duel between Leon and M'shifisu.

A group of adventurers are already causing trouble here. If he suddenly casts a spell, it will definitely create new variables.

Here, we'll wait for M'shfisu to make his move, and he can then use the trap magic he set up in advance to take care of things.

In the crowd, Lyon and Msifisu grew closer and closer.

As he drew closer, a hint of doubt flashed in Mshifisu's sharp eyes.

This guy never used Flash.

How could he remain so calm?

While the speed of flashing is indeed very fast, the control of distance and timing is very important. If you flash too early, you will miss the opportunity.

Especially for skilled players whose Flash speed reaches a certain level, the difference in Flash speed over short distances is not significant.

It's like shooting two arrows at the same time, one fast and one slow. But it's not easy for the fast one to hit the slow one without any prediction.

If she teleports there in advance, Leon will definitely have the opportunity to teleport to another location, which will force her to spend some time playing hide-and-seek.

Therefore, what M'Shifisu was waiting for was to judge Leon's landing point the instant he flashed, so as to strike first and intercept him with lightning speed the moment he landed and could not quickly flash again.

This is also the most efficient method.

Now that Lyon is choosing to walk slowly, it doesn't meet her expectations.

This guy knows exactly what I'm capable of and what I'm thinking.

This thought involuntarily arose in Mshifisu's mind.

Msifisu and Leon met twice. The first time, she noticed Leon's gaze on her outside Ophimaso's camp. She planned to use the fifth-tier combat skill, Chasing Gale, to get rid of this person who might expose her location.

As a result, he blocked the fifth-tier combat skill, but the impact only knocked him into Ophimaso's tent, and it seemed that it did not cause any real damage.

Although this move is mainly for pursuit, it is still a very lethal move.

A man who clearly doesn't seem to be of high rank can not only anticipate my counter-tracking and escape in advance, but also withstand my fifth-tier combat skill without serious damage.

From this, she realized that although this person was of low rank, he was a master.

In that fleeting glance, she remembered Leon's face.

Well, it's a rather rare face among humans.

The second encounter was on the main road of the 41st floor. At that time, they were about to complete their assassination mission against Ophimasso when this person suddenly interfered. He used a powerful and fast intermediate fire magic to intercept Moriarty, a great master, for a period of time, allowing Ophimasso to quickly recover his strength, which led to their failure.

At that time, one could also see this person interacting intimately with Ophim Marceau.

Therefore, the Silver Badges realized that they might be able to lure out Ophimaso from this silver-haired magician and complete the mission again.

M'shifisu also realized that this person's incredibly fast intermediate magic might be quite effective against his agility.

That's why she was so cautious this time.

However, there's nothing we can do if we just keep stalling like this.

"We can't wait for him any longer. Waiting for the capital's garrison to arrive will only waste time. Since that's the case..."

She narrowed her eyes and suddenly flashed away when Lyon was about five meters away from the corner of the wall!

call out!!!!

She appeared beside Lyon with incredible speed.

At the same time, Leon, who had noticed M'shifisu starting to appear, also suddenly transformed into a shadow, swiftly moving across the ground and flashing towards the outside of the street.

He immediately unleashed the fifth-tier Instant Shadow Step, which he had just mastered!

Destination: Granny's Mansion!

This is the closest position among his allies.

There are several experts there, such as Machilu, Elis, and Hamra. With their help, things will definitely be much easier.

As for Britta and Ophimaso, they are located in more remote areas. Although they have more power, they obviously cannot help those in need.

Even if his strength has now progressed to the point where he is confident he can fight a master like M'shifisu, he wouldn't rashly make a move here; the risk is too great.

call out!!!!!

M'shfisu had anticipated the outcome of his first flash chase and immediately gave chase in an instant.

In the next instant, he intercepted Leon's path and raised his sword to stab the shadow on the ground.

The shadows roamed again, skirting her figure and continuing their journey.

"A single phantom transformation can last for more than 5 seconds!"

Mshifisu's expression changed slightly.

According to her estimate, Leon's base speed was slightly faster than half of hers, but with the added benefit of his long-duration Shadow skill, he could quickly close the gap in agility with the stealth and flexibility of the shadow.

In addition, this person's reaction speed far exceeded his movement speed, so much so that M'shifisu instantly realized that he probably couldn't even catch him while playing hide-and-seek.

After seven or eight such chases, the two sides had already roamed to the next street.

A gentle breeze emanated from Moriarty, who maintained an upright posture as he flew into the sky, looking down and observing the two below.

"Moriarty, bomb!"

During the chase, Mshifisu shouted.

"Huh? With your agility being almost three times the limit, you still can't stop him?"

"Enough talk, this terrain isn't suitable for me!"

This is also the truth from Mshifisu.

Lyon's phantom teleportation can obviously hide in various street shadows, making him difficult to find.
