Rats in the sewer, you can only see them baring their teeth at you in the dark when you lift the manhole cover.
Su Lun knew that this matter would never end.
Instead of escaping and letting people find an opportunity to plot against you next time, it is better to take the opportunity this time to completely overturn the manhole cover.
What's more.
Unless he beat these guys to death with one punch, he couldn't suppress the tsunami-like anger in his heart!
Su Lun is very self-aware and knows that he is no match for Aubrey, the puppet master.
After all, there is a big difference between two levels, and the gap in law understanding cannot be made up by skills and experience. What's more, it is still a big threshold for top professionals like the seventh level.
However, it is almost impossible for the other party to kill him.
There might be some hope for other seventh-level professionals, but since he is a fellow puppet master, this old man has no chance at all.
Hearing that Su Lun was planning to kill someone in front of him, Grandmaster Aubrey's face darkened.
He had also paid close attention to the battle between the Moros city-states that was so hyped in the newspapers. There was indeed something remarkable about it.
A layman can see the fun, but an expert can see the truth.
In the eyes of him, the grand master of puppets, the numbers are astonishing and the mechanical puppets are somewhat interesting.
If you really want to talk about the combat power of a single puppet, only the gargoyle can catch your eye.
It's not that he looks down on his peers, but that puppet masters have different schools due to different emphasis.
Some factions are advanced routes that prioritize quantity, focusing on large-scale team battles; while some factions prioritize quality and are better at small unit combat!
One-on-one, Aubrey didn't think this mysterious "God of Death" was very powerful.
Probably because he was used to living in the upper class, the old man planned to say a few words.
But Su Lun didn't give him a chance to talk nonsense at all. With a double-surgery pinch, the lines of the alchemy array lit up under his feet.
"Hmph! You don't overestimate your capabilities!"
Seeing that the other party actually moved his hands, Aubrey snorted in his heart, and his movements were not slow.
He raised his hand and pinched the surgeon's seal, summoning a strange-looking puppet over three meters tall out of thin air.
This puppet is obviously very tall, but its body proportions are like an enlarged version of a dwarf, with very deformed proportions.
As soon as this puppet appeared, it swallowed Elsa next to it in one bite.
The next moment, the black magic lines on the puppet lit up, and with a flash of luster, its body turned transparent and disappeared out of thin air.
After the old man finished this move, his white eyebrows raised slightly, his expression seemed to be able to speak: Aren't you so crazy that you want to kill someone? Now let's see how you kill!
Su Lun watched helplessly as Elsa disappeared, her eyes shrinking.
Not much of a surprise.
He recognized that the puppet just now was one of the old man's famous dark gold puppets [Seven Dwarfs·Machine Killing Hidden Puppet].
As a colleague, Su Lun had to admit that the quality of this puppet was very, very high.
And this is not just a simple optical invisibility. In Su Lun's perception, the "object" of the puppet no longer exists in that space.
This is obviously a very clever space hiding technique.
The puppet has been hidden in the secondary space.
When ordinary professions encounter this situation, not only can they not find the target at all, but even a range attack cannot hurt Elsa hidden in the puppet.
It's a pity that I met Su Lun.
Not only could he clearly sense the hair-thin space gap left by the puppet to connect to this main plane, but the fluctuations of Elsa's soul could not escape his perception.
This hiding method is completely meaningless to him.
However, Su Lun didn't find a chance to kill him immediately, so he pretended not to notice anything unusual.
It happened that he also wanted to try to see how big the gap was between himself and Grandmaster Aubrey, who was known as one of the top puppet masters in the world!
Seeing that the two men were about to take action, the onlookers who had been watching the excitement fled in all directions and filed out of the exhibition hall.
And the moment Elsa was hidden and disappeared, Su Lun's spell was successfully condensed, and he shouted softly: "Puppet Secret: Puppet Theater!"
Just because of this warlock, dense threads appeared everywhere in the exhibition hall.
Aubrey squinted at the silk threads covering the entire exhibition hall. Although he was not afraid, he also praised: "Your puppet secret skill is indeed interesting. Even in the guild, few people can match it. Unfortunately, the level
The position gap is too big and cannot be compensated by skills!"
As he said this, he performed the same instant pinching technique with both hands, "Reproduction and Undressing!"
No matter what, those ignorant juniors always question the strength of the Puppet Masters Guild as being inferior to some "god of death" who came out of nowhere.
Let him, the president, rectify the name of the union today.
As soon as the Warlock Seal was completed, Aubrey's face looked like a mantis, and he grasped the void with his hands. A large amount of black metallic luster threads suddenly spurted out from his ten fingers: "Puppet Secret Technique: Thousand-Blade Lattice House!"
Su Lun narrowed his eyes slightly when he saw the old man's method of controlling silk.
This is the mythical breeding equipment [Lepid-Winged Stone Cicada's Silk Glands] which is just as effective as his own [Weeping Witch Hair].
The mythical insect, the scale-winged stone cicada, has been extinct for hundreds of millions of years. Thanks to the deep organization of the Puppet Masters Guild, an atavistic species was found from nowhere and refined into a breeding costume.
The silk thread produced by this colonial clothing is extremely tough and can carry high-level rune inscriptions.
After being engraved, it can be compared to a sharp blade.
Although the thread cannot be elementalized, it can cut through almost any obstacle blocking the thread with its sharpness.
The fighting methods of fellow puppet masters are similar, and their attacks must be controlled within range.
"Puppet Theater" versus "Grid House".
In an instant, the threads of both parties were entangled together, trying to compete for control of the threads in the exhibition hall.
But it was obvious that Su Lun was at a disadvantage as soon as they met him.
Those black threads were like sickles, easily cutting through the light blue witch's hair.
In the same quantity, the quality of Su Lun's silk thread is far inferior to that of the seventh-level Grand Master Aubrey.
It's a pity that the quality is not enough, I can just make up for the quantity.
Intelligence showed that Aubrey's carefully refined natal iron wires only numbered in the tens of thousands, but Suellen's witch hair was endless.
Cut off one hundred, and he still has ten thousand, one million!
He has unlimited dark spiritual power provided by [Isaac's Alchemical Heart], which is enough to support his wanton use of silk threads.
The witch's hair is condensed into bundles, and the strands are bundled into bundles.
It was disconnected and reconnected, and the black threads were constantly entangled.
Aubrey's black iron wire cut through iron like mud, cutting into the wall of the exhibition hall, as if cutting into soft mud. In a very short period of time, the battle between the two top puppet masters relied on the silk thread to quietly cut into the wall.
The entire three-story exhibition hall was cut into pieces.
"Boom~"
Houses collapsed and rubble fell like a thunderstorm.
Two figures appeared on the ruins.
Aubrey was also surprised when she saw her thread being tangled.
He looked at the endless threads and then realized: "It turns out that it is fused with a super high-grade energy-producing equipment. No wonder it can support such an exaggerated number of puppet controls."
Ordinary people would waste their spiritual energy like this, and they would not be able to hold on for long before their spiritual energy would be exhausted. But this guy not only showed no signs of exhaustion, but instead it was growing more and more.
Aubrey really took this test seriously.
Legends are legends, and most of them are exaggerated.
Witnessing the methods of the "God of Death" for the first time, Aubrey, the great master, also felt a strong sense of threat.
This is still a wrestling match with a big gap.
If we were professionals at the same level, it would be hard to say what the outcome of this silk control competition would be!
He knew that it was impossible to defeat the person in front of him with silk thread alone, so he raised his hand and grabbed it with his fingers, and two large dwarf puppets, both over three meters tall, appeared next to him.
The ability of top-level professionals to control the battlefield is definitely not as full of loopholes as that of low-level professionals. Once an opportunity is found, the opponent will not be given time to react.
Two puppets, one red and one blue, appeared beside them for a moment, and the two puppets suddenly opened their mouths.
One breath of black flames, and the other spit out a mouthful of foul-smelling green water that corroded the air into white smoke.
"The Secret of Fire·The True Flame of Hell!"
"Secret Water Technique: Great Water Dragon Technique!"
Two elemental pythons condensed from the same sixth-level spells shot out instantly and rushed towards Su Lun.
Wherever the two giant pythons, one water and one fire, passed by, all threads and broken walls were instantly burned. They violently left two terrifying burning tracks on the ground.
A closer look reveals that the two puppets of the old man are not using ordinary elemental spells, but are attached spells blessed by cursed objects.
One is inlaid with [Heart of Dark Flame Demon], and the other is filled with [Venomous Viper Venom Sac].
These two elemental puppets themselves are cursed objects with super curse properties, and the spells they cast also carry additional fire poison and water poison damage.
This requires a real person to cast the spell, which is a more complex spell seal, and the starting hand is half a beat slower.
This is one of the career advantages of a puppet master.
They can use puppets as a carrier to solidify various spells, reserve energy in advance, and use them almost instantly in battle.
The puppet is very sophisticated, but in the eyes of Su Lun's omniscient eye, there is no secret at all.
What's more, he himself is also a top puppet maker. He can almost instantly identify the working principle of his opponent's puppet with just one look.
The moment he saw this quasi-seventh-level puppet, he not only felt powerful, but also felt extremely emotional in his heart: rich and rich.
Whether you are strong or not is another matter. If you are rich, you are really rich.
A more sophisticated fourth-level puppet would cost tens of millions of liso in materials. The cost of these two quasi-seventh-level puppets would definitely be a jaw-dropping figure.
Some of the accessories are very old, obviously they are antiques passed down from the line of elemental puppet masters.
Money is fighting power. In the professional field of puppet master, this is extremely true.
Two sixth-level spells were enough to turn Su Lun and a large area near where he stood into ashes.
Su Lun had no intention of moving at all. He grabbed it with his fingers and a huge puppet with bat wings appeared out of thin air in front of him.
The gargoyle raised his hands in front of him, and two whirlpool black holes quickly condensed in his palms.
The old man's puppet is very strong, and Su Lun's gargoyle is not bad either.
Two giant elemental pythons with a diameter of several meters surged towards them, and before they had time to show off their ferocity, they were swallowed up by the huge suction force of the black hole in the space in the hands of the gargoyle.
Almost at the same time, Su Lun's back felt a slight chill, and he felt that the "wind" around his body was suddenly trapped.
Another sixth-level spell [Alchemy of Wind·Wind Realm Binding Lock]!
Even without looking, Su Lun knew that the puppet hidden in the sky had taken action. The moment his attention was attracted by the two spells in front of him.
This is [Wind Roar Puppet], one of the seven elemental dwarfs.
This wind-based confinement spell made the air within the area as sticky as glue. Even though Su Lun was so powerful, he suddenly felt more and more difficult to move.
Normally, this kind of triangle killing tactic where the puppets cooperate with each other is enough to make a fifth-level or sixth-level professional feel angry on the spot.
Unfortunately, for Su Lun, who has mastered spatial displacement, this control technique has no limiting effect.
With a slight movement, he dodged the murderous wind blades that were coming one after another.
The next moment, the energy fluctuations in the black holes in the gargoyle's hands surged again.
Looking again, the two previous sixth-level spells were returned intact.
The giant python of water and fire swept towards Master Aubrey who was not far away.
This is an instant spell and a range attack. Although its power is relatively low among sixth-level elemental spells, it is extremely fast and extremely difficult to avoid.
Aubrey watched the spell he sent rushing towards him, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
Only experts can understand that this is not a simple backlash technique, it contains the control of the three elements of space, water and fire.
This gargoyle puppet is not simple!
After all, the old man did not choose to dodge in panic. He just raised one hand and held the palm of his hand in front of his body.
In an instant, a yellow barrier appeared in front of him.
The two powerful spells exploded outside the barrier, not injuring Aubrey at all.
Seeing this, Su Lun murmured in his heart: "Tsk, tsk, I finally used the realm."
The output of the puppet masters is sufficient. Even if they do not participate in the battle, they can still make up for their lack of combat power through various puppets.
On the contrary, self-defense is a big shortcoming.
Therefore, the field of understanding of this puppet master is [Field·Absolute Barrier], which is specially used for standing and output.
With this method, the old man would not be able to defeat Su Lun in a short period of time, even among professionals of the same level.
This was also one of the most important reasons why Su Lun felt that it was impossible for him to kill him.
But there are also gains and losses.
Since it is a defensive field of understanding, the attack methods brought by the level are also greatly reduced.
Aubrey also lost the means to effectively kill Suellen.
Just being a puppet is enough for others.
For Su Lun, the threat is far less great.
The two used silk thread to fight the puppet for two rounds, which lasted only a moment.
Now, they paused for a moment in silent agreement.
Su Lun held the black scythe in his hand, looked at Grand Master Aubrey, who was covered in golden light, and said, "Master Aubrey, if you only use some means, I'm afraid you won't be able to stop me."
Although he said this, Su Lun didn't mean to look down upon him at all.
Regardless of spell casting speed, silk thread manipulation skills, combat timing, and puppetry understanding, this old man is worthy of the title of Grand Master of Puppetry.
He said this just because he wanted to see the true ability of this great master within a limited time.
Legend has it that the old man is at his strongest after the "seven dwarfs" all appear together.
Now it's just one or two percent.
Aubrey listened and said nothing.
He looked at Su Lun in front of him, his eyes becoming more and more solemn.
I also admit in my heart that this is indeed the case.
Although he couldn't defeat him, he didn't seem to be able to see anything that could definitely kill the person in front of him.
Colleagues know each other best. After a fight, Aubrey knew that although the guy in front of him was not of a high level, his understanding of puppetry was definitely one of the handful of people at the top of the pyramid in the world.
The potential threat is huge!
Such people cannot be kept for personal use, so it is best to eliminate them.
At this moment, Aubrey really became murderous.
Su Lun didn't give the old man much time to think.
It's one thing to see the tricks of his peers, but he hasn't forgotten that his purpose is to kill people.
At this moment, he took out the rune black umbrella.
Then he pulled out several [smoke puppets]. Once activated, the puppets would open their mouths and spit out thick smoke.
Not long after, the ruins of the entire exhibition hall were covered in thick smoke, making it impossible to see even one's fingers.
This method was not intended to completely hide the perception of a seventh-level professional, but Su Lun did not want his method to be seen by the reporters and the crowd who were watching.
Until now, he is not particularly anxious.
Because he was sure in his heart that before he killed Elsa, there was a high probability that some people would not see high-level professionals intervene.
Suellen and Grand Master Aubrey fought in the exhibition hall, and the exhibition hall collapsed in an instant.
Moreover, the noise of the fighting became louder and louder, gradually spreading to the entire neighborhood.
Thick smoke filled most of the block, and there were only a few figures inside.
"Bang", "Bang", "Bang"
The sound of gunfire, the sound of swords clashing, the sound of magic explosions, and the sound of thread cutting all mixed together.
It was obviously just a battle between two puppet masters, but it felt like a gang war.
The elements of the entire neighborhood were in chaos.
The mounted policemen on patrol have discovered the situation here, but no one of these first- and second-level patrolmen dared to approach, and they hid behind bunkers one by one.
"Quickly notify the General Police Department that a large-scale fight occurred on Chateau Street, involving high-level professionals. The number of participants is unknown and they may be armed with heavy weapons!"
The noise of the fighting is getting louder and louder, and the crowds watching the excitement are getting farther and farther away.
At this time, an inconspicuous steam car had already arrived on the high ground not far from Chateau Street.
In the carriage, two people silently observed the battle not far away.
They were not surprised, as if they had foreseen it.
"It came so quickly. It took such a short time to confirm the clues and found Elsa. That guy's intelligence ability is really strong."
"Don't be too surprised. The 'Dawn Group' previously robbed a void resource being developed by the North Sea Fleet in the secret realm of the North Sea. The Dawn Group has a large amount of void materials in their hands, and that person is now probably fused with some kind of high-quality void material.
The displacement ability is very strong. However, none of this news has been spread, and it is not known to outsiders."
""
The conversation was between a man and a woman.
If Su Lun were here, he would naturally be able to recognize the man at a glance as William, the eldest son of the Raigadi family.
But the woman had her face covered in a cloak, so her face couldn't be seen.
William frowned when he saw the exaggerated battle, and murmured to himself: "I didn't expect that I couldn't kill him last time, but it would cause me such a big trouble."
Thinking about it, he asked the cloaked man next to him: "Can that guy really kill Elsa under the protection of Grandmaster Aubrey?"
If the cloaked man hadn't vowed that it would work, he would never have believed such an outrageous plan.
After all, Grandmaster Aubrey is a well-known strong man in Lingdun, and he wouldn't be able to do it.
Hearing this, the cloaked man said calmly: "The prophecy shows that Elsa will definitely die today."
After a pause, she added: "If you know my identity, you know that I have a mortal feud with that person. So you don't have to worry about my selfish motives."
William listened expressionlessly and seemed to agree with this statement, "But, even if he can kill Elsa, he will definitely be able to enter the game?"
The cloaked man responded: "Before, I just guessed that he had a special ability to obtain information, and I was not 100% sure what it was. But now I have concluded that it should be something similar to 'undead interrogation' or 'mental hypnosis'
' has the ability to get the information he wants directly from people's consciousness. Otherwise, he would not have been able to come so quickly. This is 80% related to his second-level death talent. That kind of talent is too rare and popular.
If there is too little information stored, it will be difficult to know the specific abilities.”
William's expression became even worse as he listened.
The suspected double-S talent made him, the first heir of the Raigadi family, feel extremely threatened.
This person must not be allowed to stay!
The cloaked man seemed to have read William's thoughts and continued: "But it doesn't matter how talented he is. He will die this time."
When talking about Su Lun, there seemed to be a kind of hatred in the woman's tone.
She added: "It's not enough to kill the eldest lady of the Bach family. Once the old guy from the Rodriguez family dies, things will be completely settled this time. By then, if he is caught, he will definitely die if his identity is not exposed. Once that happens,
If you expose your identity and survive, the marriage will inevitably fail, and you will die in the end. But the marriage between your Lei Jiadi and the Lance family will still continue, and Master William will naturally be able to achieve his wish. And once the old guy from the Rodriguez family dies, Lu will die.
The British political situation will inevitably be in great turmoil, and several major members will also be in fierce internal strife. Then the opportunity for the Raigadi family will really come, and it may not be able to completely change the pattern of the empire."
Upon hearing this, William narrowed his eyes slightly, and although he did not speak, his eyes became firm.
After watching the battle for a moment, the cloaked man added: "But before Elsa is killed, official high-level professionals must not be allowed to intervene and stop it."
William nodded: "I have already made arrangements. The alarm information from the Linton Police Station has been intercepted, and no high-level professionals will go there in a short time."
Having said this, he pondered for a moment and said in a complex tone: "I hope that guy is as capable as you said, and can kill Elsa."
At the same time, in a luxurious mansion in the wealthy area north of the Locovalen River.
A bearded middle-aged man wearing flowery pants excitedly knocked on the study door and shouted: "Oh, my baby girl, there is some breaking news!"
The servant opened the door and the bearded man walked in quickly.
This slovenly guy is none other than Bartolo Lance, the "Tulip Duke".
In the study room, Ekaterina was reading a book leisurely. She saw her father walking in with high spirits, and then she turned her head and glanced: "Oh???"
Bartolo excitedly shared the information he had obtained, saying: "I just got the news that that kid is fighting Aubrey from the Puppet Masters Guild in Queens, and it's making a huge noise."
His expression was like that of a melon-eating crowd who was eager to watch the fun, without any awareness that he was a grand duke.
Hearing the name "that boy", Ekaterina instantly knew who it was.
But her expression didn't change at all, and she just asked lightly: "Because of what?"
Bartolo said: "It seems that he heard that one of his disciples was kidnapped by the little girl Elsa of the Bach family. The boy came to ask for an explanation, and the old man Aubrey happened to be there, and the two started fighting.
.”
"oh."
As Yekaterina listened, her expression changed slightly.
Her eyes scanned another line on the page, and after thinking for a moment, the doubts in her crystal eyes suddenly became clear, as if she had guessed something, and then she said: "It should be for our Lance family. Someone with a motive is probably
This is the method of Archduke Raphael and Young Master William."
Bartolo chuckled, obviously he had guessed it.
And I know this is to destroy the marriage.
However, this doesn't seem to be important.
Bartolo was more interested in watching the excitement and asked: "My dear, are you not going to help? If he is caught, he will definitely die this time, and there will definitely be big problems in the marriage."
"No need."
Ekaterina seemed uninterested.
She played with two bright purple meteorites in her slender hands and said lightly: "He must be confident if he dares to do it."
Hearing that his precious daughter was not going, Bartolo's interest in watching the fun suddenly dropped, "But what if that kid thinks you are the reason for him to dare to attack? If you don't go, wouldn't it be bad?"
Yekaterina raised her eyebrows and glanced, shook her head slightly and said: "I may be one of the reasons why he took action in Linton. But I definitely cannot be the only one. Don't worry, he is not so easy to be plotted."
Bartolo pursed his lips and seemed a little bored: "Oh, that's it."
He tilted his head and thought for a while, but still couldn't hold back his curiosity, and the burning fire of gossip in his eyes lit up again: "Anyway, I want to go see the excitement. Tsk, tsk, when I beat that kid before, I just thought
It's so impressive. I didn't expect him to be able to compete with that old man Aubrey after not seeing each other for a few months. He's progressing very quickly. No, I have to see this excitement."
Seeing that her father was about to go out, Ekaterina did not forget to break the cold water and said: "I say father, you will probably be disappointed. I think when you arrive, there is a high probability that you will not see the excitement. He
Since we take action, we will definitely kill the person before anyone intervenes."
Hearing this, Bartolo was a little unhappy, and said in a sour tone: "Hey, hey, hey, dear girl, I have never seen you so confident in your father! That kid is really what you said, and here he is.
Okay, where is the best place?"
Ekaterina rolled her eyes at her father and was too lazy to explain.
Thinking of something, the Grand Duke muttered again in a very unprofessional manner: "Oh, it seems that he was beaten lightly last time. No, I have to go see him!"
The chattering in my ears continued, like a bee buzzing.
Naturally, I can’t read the book anymore.
Ekaterina looked at her father with a helpless expression, not knowing why he wanted to accompany her to watch the fun.
She then stood up and said, "Well, let's go and have a look. There should be more follow-up. Just being a Marquis of Zishan obviously doesn't have enough weight. He chose to take action in the city, probably because he wanted to make the matter bigger.
Let those sewer rats see the light of day."
Bartolo was immediately happy.
"Oh, let's go quickly! Maybe we can catch the exciting part. Hahaha, let's go, let's go. I just asked the butler to arrange the car, so it's just right to go down now."
""
"I said Katyusha, when are you going to come from behind the scenes to the front? Dad can give up your position to you. Then I plan to complete my dream trip. Oh, being the head of the house is really boring."
"Soon."
"Then you have to hurry up. Otherwise, dad won't even be able to catch the tail of youth. There are so many beautiful scenery on the journey, waiting for your dad to encounter by chance."
