Chapter 112 The Mage Who Wields a Knife
Chapter 112 The Mage Who Wields a Knife
Chaos erupted inside the tavern.
The patrons screamed and scattered, tables and chairs were knocked over everywhere, and the sound of breaking cups and plates filled the air.
However, Karen and Red Rose, who were still locked in a standoff, remained unaffected by their surroundings.
Red Rose, in particular, felt a sinking feeling in her heart when she saw another group of order maintainers rush in.
Clearly, her plan to assassinate Karen and the others not only failed completely, but she herself also found it difficult to escape.
This made her hate the young man in front of her who had seen through her even more.
Although they were both at the third rank, she didn't take this man seriously at first.
After all, she never expected that the "Intoxicating Powder," which had never failed before, would actually be ineffective.
Thinking of this, the fierce light in Red Rose's eyes intensified, and the dark red energy around her surged instantly as she swiftly unleashed third-tier blood magic with her hands!
The skin on her hands instantly split open, and streams of dark red blood flowed down, gradually forming a pool of blood on the ground beneath her feet!
The next moment, the pool of blood, as if alive, rapidly approached Karen with a pungent stench, then quickly surged up and transformed into strange bloody hands that grabbed at him!
The distance was so close that there was almost no way to avoid it!
Upon seeing this, Karen immediately abandoned her plan to dodge.
He instinctively activated the extraordinary elements within his body, condensing them into a semi-transparent barrier that covered his entire body.
First-tier magic, Hard Rock Barrier!
"You're not a warrior...you're a mage who wields a sword?!" Red Rose was stunned, her scarlet eyes filled with shock.
When she first saw Karen wearing a long sword at his waist, she subconsciously assumed that he was a third-tier warrior.
But now, seeing that magical barrier, he immediately realized what was going on.
This young man is actually a mage!
been played!
boom!
At the same time, bloody hands slammed into the barrier one after another, producing a dull thud.
Each bloody hand seemed to contain extremely terrifying power, constantly crashing down and causing the barrier to fluctuate violently and rapidly become thinner!
Click!
In the blink of an eye, the barrier shattered!
As if provoked, those bloody hands frantically attacked Karen's chest, but were forcefully repelled by an invisible force the instant they touched him!
At this moment, he only felt a series of impacts in his chest, but he did not suffer any real injury.
"That's...?!"
Upon seeing this, a look of shock flashed in Red Rose's bloodthirsty red eyes!
Only then did she realize that the young man was wearing an enchanted inner armor under his outer garment!
Moreover, the inner armor was radiating a strong divine aura, clearly an enchanted item blessed by a high-ranking divine servant!
Karen reacted instantly.
He had been wearing this inner armor ever since the church gave it to him.
However, before today, all the enemies he encountered either couldn't touch his body or couldn't activate the divine power on his inner armor.
So much so that he almost forgot he even had such an enchanted item.
However, for now, this enchanted inner armor is proving quite useful!
"Miss Red Rose, it seems your attack isn't very effective," Karen said with a cold smile.
Then, with the blessing of "Elemental Overlord", he quickly condensed a surge of lightning element in his right hand, and in an instant, a spear formed of lightning appeared in his hand!
Second-tier magic, Thunder Spear!
He hurled the lightning spear in his hand!
A blinding flash of lightning erupted, and Red Rose was sent flying by the lightning spear, smashing all the tables and chairs behind her to pieces!
She fell heavily to the ground, her abdomen charred black.
Dark red blood continued to gush from her wound, emitting a faint burnt smell.
Karen's right hand was once again crackling with blinding arcs of electricity, preparing to launch a second wave of attacks.
But at that moment, the red rose lying on the ground suddenly flashed and flew straight towards the tavern door!
At this moment, she had seen through everything!
She discovered that Karen not only had a keen eye for talent, but also, despite being a mage, she carried a longsword and even wore enchanted inner armor specifically designed to counter her blood magic…
Clearly, this man came for her!
So whether it was the poisoning just now, or the sudden influx of another group of order maintainers, it was all pre-arranged by the other side!
All for the sake of catching her!
At this moment, Red Rose had no intention of continuing to fight Karen.
She unleashed her full power almost instantly, aiming her spearhead directly at Tyron, who was still in a daze standing at the tavern door!
In her opinion, although this man was Karen's backup plan and was also a third-tier superhuman, he obviously didn't seem as troublesome as Karen!
"Get out of my way, you pesky bug!"
She let out a shriek and pounced on Tyron with the speed of a ghost!
The ten sharp claws on her hands were infused with a rich, dark red energy, like deadly weapons aimed straight for Tyrion's throat!
At this moment, Tyron was still immersed in shock and bewilderment at the huge deviation from his plans.
He was jolted awake only when the deadly chill ran through his body!
"Captain Tyronn, watch out!"
A member of the Order Guard cried out in alarm and tried to raise his shield to block the Red Rose's onslaught.
But it's too slow!
Tyron only had time to instinctively lean back and draw his sword haphazardly to parry.
clang!
puff!
The sharp claws first deflected Tyrone's hastily approaching sword, producing a piercing clash.
Then, with a swift and unpredictable movement, she avoided Tyron's armored chest and plunged her hands deep into his right shoulder socket!
In an instant, the blood magic attached to the claws suddenly erupted!
"Aaaaaah!!!"
Tyron's expression changed drastically, and he let out a piercing scream!
He was thrown backward by the immense force and fell, blood gushing from his right shoulder, the flesh and skin of the wound torn open, revealing the bone!
Moreover, excruciating pain kept emanating from the wound, and the color of the overflowing blood quickly turned dark!
Even the flesh at the edges of the wound has begun to show bizarre necrosis!
But this is not over yet!
After her successful strike, Red Rose didn't linger, moving like a ghost among the Order Keepers brought by Tyrone.
Her figure was so fast that it left afterimages. Her ten sharp claws were like ten sharp daggers, and with each flash she made, a flash of blood appeared!
"Watch out! This woman...!"
"Ah!"
Screams rang out from the crowd!
These Order Keepers originally belonged to other squads, and most of them only had the strength of the second tier.
Now, he has been temporarily transferred by Tyrion under the pretext of arresting his own members for dereliction of duty, but upon entering the tavern, he encounters this unexpected scene.
Therefore, caught off guard, three people had their throats slit and fell to the ground dead in an instant!
The others hastily put up a defense, but it was useless against the Red Rose, whose strength reached the third tier and whose speed was terrifying; it shattered almost upon contact.
In just a few breaths, the surviving Order Keepers were covered in bloody wounds.
Although they narrowly escaped death, the dark red energy from their wounds continued to seep into their bodies, completely rendering them unable to fight.
Therefore, the group knelt down on the ground, wailing incessantly.
In an instant, the area in front of the tavern transformed into a bloody hell!
Red Rose glanced at Tyron, who was lying on the ground groaning, and the routed Order Keepers, then looked at Karen, who was still standing in the hall behind her.
A cruel glint of pleasure flashed in her eyes, and then she fled without hesitation!
"Trying to leave?"
At that moment, Karen's icy voice suddenly rang out.
He had just intended to rescue the Order Keepers, but Red Rose's speed far exceeded his expectations.
Therefore, before he could make a move, three people had already fallen to the ground.
But at that moment, he seized the opportunity!
His hands shimmered with a pale yellow light, and with the enhancement of extraordinary elements, he slammed them onto the ground!
Second-tier magic, Giant Rock Prison!
