In the alley.
Half of Moria’s face was shrouded in shadow.
Zhou Huai calmly watched the prey before him.
Luo Ming.
The Calamity Spellcaster.
He was very likely the culprit who had crippled him and caused his mother's death.
Ever since the last Beast Tide in Donghai City, Zhou Huai had already noticed him.
He had been quietly developing himself, just to gain the strength to deal with him as soon as possible.
After all, without removing the curse power on him, it would always be a major hidden danger for Zhou Huai.
Therefore, this plan was also initiated for that purpose.
As for Yasuo's class change challenge, it was rely one part of tonight's plan.
"Who is Your Excellency?"
Luo Ming spoke, a hint of probing in his voice.
"I don't think I know you."
Moria did not answer.
His response was action.
Luo Ming's pupils contracted, and he instinctively retreated rapidly.
The mont he left his original spot, a claw made of pure shadow silently erged from the shadow beneath his feet, tearing at the empty space with a sharpness that could rip through anything.
Five deep scratches were gouged into the bluestone floor of the alley.
"Very fast."
Luo Ming steadied himself, a cold sneer appearing on his face.
He no longer underestimated his opponent; with a flick of his wrist, a strangely shaped staff appeared in his hand.
The staff was entirely black, its body like twisted dead wood, with a fist-sized purple crystal embedded at the top.
The crystal was not solid.
Inside, a bloodshot vertical pupil suddenly opened.
The eyeball rolled around, as if alive, emitting an eerie, heart-pounding glow.
"Since Your Excellency is unwilling to reveal your na, then I have no choice but to... send you on your way!"
Luo Ming pointed the staff forward.
"【Calamity Descent】!"
The purple eyeball instantly locked onto Moria, shooting out a grey-black beam of light.
Wherever the light passed, the air seed to be corroded, emitting a 'sizzling' sound.
However, just as the light was about to touch Moria.
Moria's figure, like a drop of ink in clear water, instantly dissolved and rged into the omnipresent shadows on the ground.
The grey-black light missed, hitting the wall at the end of the alley.
The hard brick wall, as if splashed with concentrated acid, rapidly beca mottled, decayed, and finally turned into a pile of dust, crumbling down.
"Trying to hide?"
A hint of mockery appeared on Luo Ming's face.
"Before my 'Eye of Calamity', no shadow can escape!"
He raised the staff in his hand high, and the purple eyeball began to spin frantically, its gaze sweeping back and forth over every inch of shadow in the alley like a searchlight.
Soon, it locked onto a patch of shadow in the corner of the wall to Luo Ming's left.
"Found you!"
Luo Ming sneered, and the staff swung again.
"【Touch of Decay】!"
Several grey-black energy tentacles shot out from the top of the staff, like venomous snakes, precisely striking at that patch of shadow.
However, just as those tentacles were about to hit their target.
From that shadow, a Shadow Demon Claw erged again.
But it was not for blocking; instead, it bypassed the blockade of the energy tentacles at a tricky and strange angle, heading straight for Luo Ming's body!
"What?!"
Luo Ming's face changed drastically.
He had not expected the opponent to anticipate his attack, and even play a trick of feinting to the east while attacking the west.
He wanted to retreat, but it was already too late.
In a hurry, he could only expand the grey rock shield to its maximum.
"Boom!"
The Shadow Demon Claw solidly struck the shield.
"Crack—!"
A crisp sound.
The seemingly indestructible rock shield was actually covered with fine cracks by this blow, as if it would completely shatter in the next second.
A huge impact force ca, Luo Ming was shaken back again and again, his Qi and blood churning.
He looked at his shield, his face full of horror.
How could this guy's damage be so high?!
His 【Rock Guardian】 could even withstand a full-power blow from a Level 50 BOSS.
Yet it was cracked by a single move from him?
When did such a fierce person erge in this small Donghai City?
Before he could think further, an even more fatal sense of crisis ca from below his feet.
He suddenly looked down.
He saw a pair of cold, emotionless silver eyes staring straight at him from the shadow beneath his feet.
Moria's figure had, at so unknown point, lurked beneath his feet.
"Damn it!"
Luo Ming was scared out of his wits; without thinking, the energy in his body surged wildly, and he stomped his foot hard.
He shot up into the sky.
And the mont his feet left the ground.
"Bang!"
The ground at the spot where he had stood exploded, and countless sharp shadow spikes burst out of the earth, forming a deadly jungle.
If his reaction had been a tenth of a second slower, he would probably have been pierced like a sieve by now.
In mid-air, Luo Ming panted heavily, cold sweat streaming down his forehead, his drunkenness long since scared away.
He looked at the figure slowly erging from the shadows below, still feeling a lingering fear.
Too bizarre!
This guy's fighting style was like a true shadow, pervasive and impossible to guard against.
If he continued to fight, he feared he would truly fall here today.
Thinking of this, he no longer dared to linger in battle for a mont.
He turned and transford into a streak of light, fleeing desperately towards the Tianyu Guild headquarters.
As he flew, he fumbled in his spatial ring for his phone and dialed a number.
"Beep... beep..."
The phone rang for a long ti before it was finally answered.
From the receiver ca a slightly indifferent male ◆ Nоvеlіgһt ◆ (Only on Nоvеlіgһt) voice.
"Late at night, what's up?"
Luo Ming shouted anxiously into the phone.
"Guild Master! Save !"
"I'm being hunted!"
On the other end of the phone, Sun Tian, the Guild Master of Tianyu Guild, was in his study, handling docunts.
Hearing Luo Ming's plea for help, he frowned slightly.
"You're being hunted?"
"Where? What's the situation?"
Luo Ming had no ti to explain and impatiently interrupted him.
"Now is not the ti to talk about this!"
"Quickly send people to support ! That guy is very strange, I'm no match for him!"
"I'll send you the location!"
With that, he hurriedly hung up the phone.
Listening to the busy signal from his phone, Sun Tian's expression instantly beca serious.
Luo Ming was the top combat power in the guild, second only to Li Qiu, and his Rank had long since broken through Level 50.
In this small Donghai City, there was actually soone he couldn't handle?
Who exactly was the opponent?
Sun Tian did not ponder too much.
Luo Ming's value could not be lost.
He imdiately dialed another number.
The call was quickly answered, and a sowhat lazy young male voice ca through.
"Hello, Boss?"
"Waking soone up in the middle of the night, don't you know that's very impolite?"
Sun Tian ignored his complaint and was concise.
"Li Qiu, sothing happened to Luo Ming."
"It's in Donghai City; I'll send you the location, go check it out imdiately."
Li Qiu on the other end of the phone let out a scoff.
"Luo Ming?"
"Boss, aren't you making too much of a fuss?"
"With his strength, in this small Donghai City, how many people can touch him?"
"I bet he's probably just drunk again, making a scene sowhere."
Sun Tian's tone was unchallengeable.
"His tone just now sounded very anxious; it didn't seem faked."
"You should still go, just in case."
Li Qiu sighed impatiently, rolled over in bed, and mumbled.
"Boss, it's not saying this, but you just spoil him too much."
"That guy, relying on his rare profession, acts high and mighty in the guild all day, causing a lot of trouble."
"If you ask , he should have been kicked out long ago."
He paused, then changed the subject, his voice taking on a hint of playfulness.
"It's fine if you want to save him."
"But..."
"It'll cost extra."
Sun Tian's expression remained unchanged, as if he had long anticipated he would say that.
"One million."
"Once it's resolved, the money will be in your account imdiately."
"Alright!"
Hearing this, Li Qiu instantly perked up and abruptly sat up from his bed.
"Don't worry, Boss!"
"I'm going right now!"
"I guarantee I'll bring him back to you without a single hair missing!"
With that, he hung up the phone.
In the dark bedroom, Li Qiu stretched, then casually picked up a black trench coat from his bedside table and put it on.
He walked to the window and pushed it open.
The cold night wind, mixed with rain, blew in, making his hair a little ssy.
The next second.
He leaped out of the window, dozens of ters high.
His body plumted rapidly through the air.
Just as he was about to hit the ground, a loud Dragon roar echoed through the night sky.
A huge Silver Dragon figure broke through the clouds, like a silver lightning bolt, precisely catching his falling body.
The Silver Dragon flapped its wings, stirring up a gust of wind, carrying him rapidly towards the coordinates at the other end of the city.
