Chapter 610: Chapter 610 Noise (34)_1 Chapter 610: Chapter 610 Noise (34)_1 Everything was as rembered, without any deviation.
Count Valentin, without Veheler by his side, stepped forward amidst the expectation of the crowd, trembling, and without delay, he blew the horn.
As he did, a cacophony erupted from all around, quickly swelling into a surge that ravaged the pier.
In the midst of this torrent, Fu Qian heard the confused voice of Veil nearby, not understanding why her sister seed unexcited.
It was the mont she had long awaited.
Soon, horn blasts ca from two other locations as well.
At this mont, Count Valentin, clearly not yet recovered from his exertion, was still trembling.
Fu Qian, witnessing this scene, felt an unexpected surprise.
Could it be that not only Veheler but also Ya Yu was absent?
The effect seed almost too good to be logical.
In Fu Qian’s estimation, having either Veheler or Ya Yu lured away by his earlier actions was already a satisfactory result.
After all, Hamadus had erged from the sea, making the pier an exceedingly important location.
But it was only a speculation; the truth would soon reveal itself.
Silently counting the ti, a heart-wrenching howl soon ca.
The first Transcendent fell victim, followed by the second, the third… and waves of tumultuous resonance followed suit.
At that instant, Veil, who was trying to enliven her sister, froze.
Realizing sothing was amiss, she dropped the vial she was holding and started to rush off with her sister.
However, Riet, who had been silent till now, suddenly stood still, emitting an almost frenzied voice from beneath her mask.
“Silence.”
And it was then that a sigh-like voice cut through the clamor, faintly imposing silence.
The Night Watchman Demigod, Cassandra, who was guarding the pier, made her move.
In Fu Qian’s view, Count Valentin was still trembling, not only failing to step forward and unhook the horn, but also remaining in place, shouting.
The next mont, an exaggeratedly loud horn blast ca, and Veil, who was forcefully dragging her sister away, stopped dead, adopting the sa stance as her sister.
Over at the Phoenix Palace.
Identifying the direction of the sound, Fu Qian shook his head.
So both of them had left?
However, one must look on the bright side; at least for the old n on the Lighthouse, there was no need to beco cannon fodder in the grand sche.
If Cassandra were not so impulsive, perhaps later she could have ended up in a two-on-one situation—well, ignore that last part.
Listening to the abruptly hushed lullaby, Fu Qian was certain that the Night Watchman Demigod had already rushed towards the direction of the Phoenix Palace.
Detecting the abnormality of the second horn blast there, Cassandra did not hesitate to go to her teammate’s aid.
Could this also have been part of the plan?
To run to another location to blow the horn, then lure the tiger away from the mountain?
It shouldn’t be.
Fu Qian shook his head.
Such minutiae were too prone to the unexpected to be relied upon.
If Cassandra showed the slightest patience, she would catch up just as Hamadus made his appearance, and then the operation would fail.
Fu Qian narrowed his eyes, watching ahead as the churning sea rolled, and a shadow slowly surfaced.
Until breaching the seemingly frozen waves, a majestic warship appeared amidst countless splashes.
The sa position, the sa design.
Hamadus, our dear friend, had heeded the call.
Fu Qian let out a long sigh.
During the aforentioned ergence, he had already stealthily moved through the crowd, and was now extrely close at hand.
The next mont, he leapt up without hesitation, diving into the sea and drawing out rcy.
Click!
The sound of the trigger ca, but no flas burst from the gun barrel; instead, a bright light flared in the waves beside it.
It really is the rcy gun!
Whenever the target is a living thing, not a single shot has ever been fired.
Fu Qian, not surprised, sighed and put the rcy gun away before turning to flee.
His goal had been achieved; the shot was ant to force Ariel out.
But the next mont, Fu Qian found the distance to the shore was longer than he rembered, and his leap fell short.
“Mr. Lu.”
Ariel’s sigh ca from behind him.
“I don’t understand why we must be enemies.”
This was a sign of determined intent to kill.
Fu Qian nodded to himself inwardly.
He did not believe Ariel truly harbored any regret.
After all, that creature had no emotional demands; all its words served only “purpose”.
If Ariel didn’t want to kill him, he would not utter an extra word, and seeing him flee, would surely not hesitate to start mind-controlling.
So as long as he spoke, there was no doubt that he considered himself a target, to eliminate before turning to his next task.
Just as he wished.
Fu Qian leaped again and landed firmly on the shore.
At almost the sa mont, an ethereal golden chain whip lashed out behind him, burning through the space with unimaginable heat as it passed.
Getting hit by that would be no trivial matter; truly befitting of a Divine Envoy, so many thods at his disposal.
It seed Brother Logan had been too rash last ti, preventing Ariel from displaying his prowess.
After narrowly avoiding the chain strike, Fu Qian continued his escape.
Seeing that Fu Qian did not respond and the distance between them widened once again, Ariel, silent as ever, took a step forward.
In what seed an unreasonable manner, he traversed space and stepped directly onto the spot where the golden chain had lashed.
“Believe , the council has everything you desire.”
Ariel closed the distance once more while continuing to speak earnestly.
Ding-a-ling!
However, at that mont, a clear bell chi appropriately rang out.
The golden chain in Ariel’s hand, only half-burned, instantly extinguished.
…
Not far from Ariel, Riet, wearing a mask, watched the imposing figure in the distance, desperately shaking the bell in her hand.
And Fu Qian, who had been fleeing, imdiately stopped, turned his head, and aid his gun at Ariel.
In the crisp sound, the fla finally burst from the barrel of the rcy gun.
What he had done just now was actually quite simple, pretending to flee while passing by Riet.
As a normal person, she had undoubtedly been hit, screaming at Hamadus.
And as everyone knew, the best way to counteract mind control was with a more advanced form of brainwashing; thus, Fu Qian instantly activated a Decree Residue.
As it turned out, the skill did have so rejuvenating effects. Using the poison against itself, it helped Riet to shake off her previous state.
After waking up, the terrifying scene in front of her caused her to reflexively use the Eternal Clarity Mind, enveloping Ariel within it.
The effect was surprisingly good, even better than when he used it himself.
After all, given the previous circumstances, not to ntion the risk of being affected himself, from Ariel’s behavior, he appeared almost certain that Fu Qian wasn’t truly fleeing, which is why his attacks were those distant chain whips.
In such a situation, if he suddenly produced a bell, Ariel would probably flee instantly, leaving him to be affected alone.
Now, though the Transcendent effect of the rcy gun, entering the area affected by the bell, would be dispersed, the power of the gunpowder was very real.
The next mont, Ariel finally and solidly got shot.
