Chapter 148: Chapter 128: Can't Overlap No Matter What! (Two-in-One Mega Chapter)_4

"Swoosh!"

Suddenly, a sharp arrow struck his steed right beneath him!

With the horse's neighing, its leg kneeling, the Night Watchman Messenger was tossed off its back.

The attackers were cunning, ensuring nothing went wrong by shooting the horse instead of the man directly.

"Swoosh!"

Right after that, another arrow from the dense woods at the side aimed at the Messenger who had just been thrown into mid-air.

"Thud!" The arrow penetrated the flesh!

With a scream, the heavily fallen Messenger struggled to get up.

But as he lifted his head, he saw two men who looked like mercenaries come out from the dense forest, grinning with satisfaction.

"Thinking of sending a message? Heh heh!"

"Just go back to the embrace of the goddess honestly!"

...

North of Flashgold Town.

The same scene unfolded on the road leading to the Habsburg estate!

The ambush on the Night Watchman Messenger resulted in the failure to deliver the request for help.

-----------------

Flashgold Town.

In the church square.

"Quite an impressive Transcendent feature, is it some kind of defense enhancement?" the black flame monk spoke, his speech slow and his voice calm, exuding an indescribable elegance as if he were a nobleman.

But Rein didn't answer his question; instead, he took advantage of the moment to turn his head and quickly said to Matteo, "Matteo, you guys attack from both sides, go and rescue first!"

Understanding Rein's intention, Matteo immediately led a dozen or so Night Watchmen, smashing through the church windows on both sides and attacking the black flame monk who was conducting the ritual from various angles.

Though their arrows were easily blocked by the protective black flames of the black flame monk.

But he couldn't move, becoming a live target. Sёarch* The NôᴠelFirё.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

This made rescuing the civilians possible.

Apart from the many who had been unconscious due to the dark energy, most people began to climb the windows to escape.

This occurrence vexed and hastened the black flame monk performing the ritual.

At this moment, he couldn't give up, as the blood sacrifice ritual was about to be completed. Even though many had escaped, the sacrifice's quality would only be slightly inferior and still acceptable. However, if he gave up now, the entire ritual would fail.

This was obviously unacceptable.

"It's almost there!"

"Once I free up my hands, all of you bastards are going to die sooner or later!"

"But with the Angel Envoy's strength, to be tangled up by the opponent, this really is unexpected!"

Through the shattered windows of the church, Matteo immediately spotted Rein's mother Emma, which startled him!

"No way! Rein is currently fighting a formidable enemy; although we might not be much help, we definitely can't let Rein's mother get injured!" This was Matteo's first thought upon seeing Emma.

The next second, Matteo seized the opportunity to rush into the hall, quickly fleeing while protecting Emma.

Meanwhile, the black-robed figure, called 'Angel Envoy', was clearly incensed by Rein's dismissive attitude.

With a tip of his foot, the entire person rapidly closed in on Rein!

Rein instantly activated 'Limit Break', immediately increasing his Strength, Agility, and Constitution by 35%, and he attacked the black-robed figure with a Leap Slash.

The black-robed man rapidly used his giant scythe to block.

"Clang!!"

A grating sound of metal striking metal filled the air.

The opponent's strength was immense; Rein's Jump Slash, despite his running start, was solidly countered without the figure taking a step back.

This made Rein frown, and he thus abandoned his initial idea of going all out with his big move.

After all, if he exhausted himself and the opponent still withstood it, then he, left with 'aftereffects', would be meat on the chopping block — doomed for sure.

Therefore, he had to find the opponent's weakness before unleashing his big move to take the opponent down in one fell swoop.

"Clash and clang!"

The level 6 Giant Bear Sword Technique indeed helped Rein a lot.

Even though the opponent's Strength and Agility exceeded his, not by much, with Agility just a notch better than his, while Strength was two notches higher.

So, Rein, using the smooth Giant Bear Sword Technique to constantly deflect and counter, managed to fight quite impressively.

However, noticing the chaos of the people fleeing in the hall, the black flame monk fighting Rein seemed to grow a bit impatient.

His strength and speed were above Rein's, but he could not seem to take Rein down all at once.

The black-robed man lifted his giant scythe into the middle, apparently about to release a move similar to the 360-degree black flame shockwave he had just used.

Previously, when Rein was killing those squire-knights, he hadn't taken note.

But this time, fully focused, Rein quickly noticed a slight pause in the opponent's move transitions.

Good opportunity!

"Whoosh!"

Rein's blade slashed through the opponent's black robe, cutting into the abdomen.

But suddenly, an exceptionally strong resistance surged through Rein's hands. This feeling... Discover more content at m,v l'e-NovelFire.net

It was as if he were using the Glimmering Greatsword to cut through ten layers of thick cowhide soaked in oil!

The smiling visage beneath the black robe's hood became visible, and then the giant scythe heavily chopped down at Rein, while a black flame tornado spiraled outwards in a 360-degree direction!

"Clang!" Again, Rein was hurled several meters away, but with a quick roll, he minimized the impact.

However, his body was once again wrapped in tendrils of black flame, subjecting Rein to another bout of scorching pain.

If not for 'Iron Skin lv2,' those two hits might have cost Rein more than half his life!

Indeed, only with layered armor does one live longer!

And with the opponent's cloak ripped by Rein, a large portion of flesh underneath, covered by the black cloak, was exposed.

It was a ghastly pale substance, similar to wrinkled skin!
