Chapter 774: Call to Arms
Two people stood on the balcony of one of the tallest spires of the church. They were Clear Mirror and Dust, who wore a black cape in Goldthread’s body.
Azure Dragon stared at Luqi, watching out for Judge and refraining from making a reckless attack. He shouted, “Why would you serve the Godbearer Cult, Luqi?”
“I’m not Luqi, but Clear Mirror.”
“As expected, you’re another overtaker prime. Have you taken over Luqi’s body?” Azure Dragon speculated.
“Yes.”
Dust looked down at them and raised her voice. “This lure isn’t meant for you. Why must you intervene in something that’s not your business?”
“We’re here for revenge, Dust. This is our business.” Liu Qingying stared up at Dust with a smile, but her eyes were cold like blades.
“Oh, isn’t it Miss Liu?” Dust sneered. “You really are a good friend of Ba Qiuchi’s. She talked about you all the time and said you were a real beauty. How I dream of having your body, only I had another mission to complete. Lucky me. You came to me on your own.”
“I don’t see the need. Do you?” Liu Qingying curled her lips and spat venom in the most gentle tone. “Your skin suits your soul perfectly.”
“Hahahaha!” Dust burst out laughing suddenly, either enraged or simply amused.
Hiss, hiss, hiss—
Colorful lights flickered under Dust’s cape. Not long after, the cape bulged and fluttered as dust of countless energy particles rushed out from under the cape.
The cape fell off and got swept away by the cold wind. Dust’s sparkling particles wrapped around her form, her figure wavering like an illusion. Her voice turned androgynous and staticky too, like it was modulated.
“Liu Qingying, my soul is beautiful.”
“Cut the crap.” Dead Pig’s eyes blazed with hatred. “Kill her and avenge Little Ba.”
“Of course.” Azure Dragon formulated a rough plan. “I’ll deal with Clear Mirror on my own. Don’t get any closer to him. I’ll leave Dust to you...”
“Up there! Fire!” Surnamed Li again foresaw the next ten seconds.
Everyone started and quickly looked up. It turned out that Dust and Clear Mirror had merely shown themselves to draw their attention. At some point, a thin man in a black tank top and jeans had appeared, hovering above them.
But then a tall, wide figure appeared in time, blocking the ten currents with her strong, tall, and curvy body.
It was the slaughterer prime, Tia.
Her wild long blue mane flew backward. Her light gray-blue skin was smooth and sturdy, resembling the surface of a polished metal statue. Scales covered the vital parts of her body like armor, protecting her from lethal attacks.
Azure Dragon considered the woman calmly and concluded: she was strong, but far from his level.
Tia had reached the same conclusion. She knew she was not Azure Dragon’s match.
She had long heard about the strongest fighter on paper among the awakeners. Even the pride monster Sir Jin at his prime might not be able to defeat the man.
And Tia, facing Sir Jin in his old age, only stood a forty percent chance of winning.
“I knew things weren’t going to go well!” Tia shouted angrily. “These people aren’t any easier to deal with than the Divine Scion.”
Perhaps we’re all going to die here tonight.
Tia kept that to herself.
Clear Mirror had independently come to the same conclusion. He quickly made the decision. “Plan B.”
“Okay.” Tia then shouted to the hovering Tokoos. “Shorty To, call to arms!”
Tokoos was hurling purple fireballs at the enemies below without rest. While they posed little threats like small hand grenades, they were enough to delay the humans to maybe create an opening for Clear Mirror to use Judge.
As soon as he heard Tia, his heart sank. I suspected that Plan A would fail, but fuck, it failed way too quickly!
Tokoos was frustrated, but it couldn’t be helped. The enemies they faced were too strong for them.
Pressing his hands together, he created an insidious-looking purple fireball that drew the eyes and hurled it toward the night sky.
Boom!
Two seconds later, the fireball exploded into a sparkling purple firework and lit up the sky, as well as the entire Aurora Town.
