Pale Emblem

Chapter 182 Fourth Level Extraordinary

At the staircase on the fifth floor of the hotel, two fully armed dragoons were on duty. They were nearly two meters tall, with strong and knotted muscles supporting their leather armor, broad shoulders and thick backs, making them look particularly strong, as if they were filled with powerful and endless strength.

It was late at night and the dragoons on duty were a little careless. The two chatted casually, not worrying at all that the enemy would launch a surprise attack on them.

The Adventurer's Home Inn is not heavily guarded, but it is located in the center of the Braun Town stronghold. Even if orcs and barbarians launch a night attack, they have to break through the outer defense line of the stronghold first, and it is impossible for them to appear in the inn all at once.

None of the dragoons expected that the enemy could be half-elves in addition to orcs and barbarians.

The hotel staircase was dark, and the two dragoons on night watch first heard a burst of light and swift footsteps coming from below.

The two men looked alert, but the power of the dragon vein made them extremely confident, so they did not immediately sound the alarm to wake up their companions who were sleeping soundly in the room.

Half-elves of thin draconic descent gain only minor enhancements to their senses, but they do have the gift of darkvision.

Soon, several unfamiliar half-elves rushed to the corner of the five-story staircase, and the two in the lead were holding shining swords in their hands.

Faced with this unexpected situation, the dragon riders still didn't believe that any half-elves would dare to rush up and attack them.

Just as one of the dragoons was about to ask, the other dragoon also put his hand on the hilt of the sword. The half-elf who was in the front suddenly appeared between the two of them, like a ghost, so fast that the dragoons could not react in time.

They saw clearly that the person coming was a half-elf with a bald head, broken ears, and a face full of hideous scars. He also exuded a hot, bloody, and murderous aura.

Then, the opponent's attack arrived.

The dragoon on the left was hit by a heavy punch in the chest. The instantaneous burst of force was like a spear that pierced through his armor and skin, through his muscles and sternum, and went straight to his heart and lungs, and finally exploded in his vertebrae, making his body hunched and bent, and even a horrifying bulge appeared on his strong back.

"Ugh!" The dragoon took two steps back and spat out a large mouthful of blood on the ground, only to find a round object rolling to his feet. It was actually his companion's head.

Immediately, a sharp arc of sword light swept across the dragon rider's neck, and his pair of yellow-brown vertical pupils quickly lost their luster and became dim, and his head fell off his neck.

Gladiator Kent took the lead and instantly killed two dragoons on duty. The whole process was smooth and neat, and he didn't even let the other side utter a word.

However, the reality was not as easy as Kent made it seem.

Kent was a violent half-elf warrior, and the implanted alchemical snake tentacles increased his physical attributes by 10%. The most important thing was that he ignited the fire of the soul, which could transform the heart of the mirror and then release the shadow of the dream. His control over his own power had reached a subtle level. His combat skills were much higher than those of the dragon cavalry who had not ignited the fire of the soul. The gap between the two was like a level professional beating an ordinary civilian, which was basically a one-sided crushing.

However, the dragoons' physiques were incredibly strong.

Just now, Gladiator Kent had used a step-and-sprint to integrate all the strength of his body, and used the breathing method taught by Victor to make his attack have a penetrating effect. He then ignited a drop of secret blood, activated the thug profession's furious strike, and delivered an instant explosive jab.

Kent had tried his best. He expected that the "instant jab" would be able to break the dragoon's body and shatter his heart and lungs in one blow, killing him on the spot.

However, the dragoon just spat out a large mouthful of blood and remained standing without falling down. He was not even seriously injured and still retained his combat capability.

Kent used his extremely sharp sword of fine gold and silver to cut off the opponent's heads with one sword, completely eliminating the two dragoons.

In addition, before being stabbed by the sword, the dragon rider activated the phantom scale talent of the dragon vein, and illusory dragon scales appeared under the skin, providing additional defense and a deflection force field.

Kent's fine gold and silver sword touched the illusory dragon scales, and he clearly felt that the sword's edge was slipping. However, he transformed the fire of his soul into the "heart of the realm", and completely understood the weak points of the illusory dragon scales. He used his arms to condense the power of the sword's edge without dissipating it, and finally cut off the dragon rider's neck.

If it were an ordinary level 5 swordsman, even if he hit the dragon rider's neck hard, he might not be able to seriously injure the opponent, let alone kill him with one sword.

Kent, whose combat skills and weapons and equipment all surpassed his opponents, also admitted that the dragoons were more brutal than him.

Although the battle was very short and the two dragoons died under Kent's sword before they could even utter a cry, the noise caused by the collision between the two sides still woke up some of the enemies who were resting in the room.

Victor dodged and instantly passed Kent, rushing straight to the sixth floor. Herman and Dalina followed closely behind. Kent didn't have time to say much, just simply reminded the Ranger Sisters and Harvey and others, and also rushed to the sixth floor.

"Pay attention, these dragoons are not simple!"

Harvey directly broke into Room 4 where the weapons were stored; the smelly Livdel guarded the stairs alone; the huge Mowgli faced the corridor directly; and Ruth and Jessica picked up the long swords left behind by the dragoons respectively, and used the enemy mark on the enemies who walked out of the room to check the situation one by one, which made their mental strength highly excited, ignited the secret blood, and activated the surge and frost power.

Even without Kent's reminder, they had to try their best to eliminate the enemies on the fifth floor in the shortest time possible so that they could go to the sixth floor to support Victor.

On the other side, the air currents surrounded Victor's whole body, allowing him to ignore the air resistance and move as fast as the wind. In just half a second, he reached the sixth floor of the hotel.

The corridor on the sixth floor was dark. People in the rooms on both sides had already gotten up, but they had not yet had time to open the door to see what was happening outside.

Victor kept walking, and because of his speed, he flew towards the wall opposite the corridor the moment he rushed out of the stairs. He stepped on the wall several times, and the wind element infused his body. He seemed like a ghost without form, having overcome the pull of the earth's force, and actually drifted on the wall and the ceiling of the corridor, and landed lightly and silently in front of Room 11 in less than a second.

The spiritual attribute of up to 19 points gives Victor a low-key but extremely important passive talent - controlling the mind.

To put it simply, his mind is far sharper than that of ordinary people, and with a perception attribute of 22 points, even if Victor has not yet ignited the fire of his soul, the actual situation is not much different from igniting the fire of his soul.

Therefore, under the coordination of the Dominance Mind talent and the Wind Walk talent, Victor can move freely on the walls and ceilings of the corridors, and even achieve a 360-degree wall rotation. On the other hand, the Dominance Mind also helps Victor integrate hearing, smell, vision, touch, and the association of time and space, so that Victor can know everything that happens within the range.

At this second, the vicious Herman and the burning Delina had rushed into the corridor on the sixth floor; the gladiator Kent followed closely behind, holding a fine gold and silver sword in his hand, and ran with all his strength to Room 2 at the other end of the corridor, which was the deputy commander's room; in Room 4 at the corner of the stairs, the two dragoons were the first to react. They took their weapons and were about to go out to check; there was movement in Room 9, Room 6, and Room 3. As for Room 11 in front of Victor, Commander Walker and a young woman inside had just woken up, which could be judged from the changes in their breathing rhythm and the difference in body odor.

The next second, a half-elf on the fifth floor let out a half-wail before dying, as if a pair of huge hands had suppressed his scream.

The image that emerged in Victor's mind was that a dragon half-elf from Room 7 on the fifth floor was the first to go out and was immediately attacked by Ranger Ruth. The long knife with frost power cut his skin, immediately causing mental damage that froze and slowed him down. Then, the huge Mowgli came forward to finish him off, using his terrifying strength to crush the dragon rider's head with his bare hands.

This half-wailing sounded like an alarm bell, and all the private soldiers and dragoons on the fifth and sixth floors woke up.

Commander Walker, a level five swordsman, reacted very quickly. He sat up from the bed in an instant and reached out to grab the weapon on the bedside.

At this moment, Victor outside Room 11 was about to break the door violently. However, this wooden door was remodeled, with a very thick hardwood door panel, reinforced with iron sheets on the outside, and three bolts on the inside. Victor, who was in an affinity state with the wind element, really lacked the strength to successfully break the door in one go.

However, Victor now has the most powerful means of attack - the Blue Blade!

The wind element gathered and compressed on his sword blade, and began to shine with a blue glow. It was the embodiment of the void wind element, representing the power of the law of space, possessing extreme speed, armor-piercing, sharpness, and the power to cut objects.

With the blessing of the void wind element, the sharp sword in Victor's hand pierced through the wooden door like a hot knife cutting butter. With just a downward stroke, it easily cut off three thick door bolts without any obstruction at all.

Commander Walker had stood up. Candles had been lit in his room all night. The bright candlelight allowed him to see a sharp blade shining with blue light piercing through the thick door. He was stunned.

Although he was well-informed, he had never encountered such a situation before.

Walker immediately felt a chill when he saw the sword that pierced through the door with a bright blue light pointing at him.

The next moment, a blue light flashed like lightning, and Walker, who was only 6 meters away from the thick wooden door, had no time to dodge. The void wind element with tiny arcs of electricity pierced his chest, and then expanded into a violent wind element. The turbulent blue-black airflow tore the body of the swordsman from the inside out, and set off a terrible storm in the room.

Victor easily killed a level five swordsman through a door. There is no doubt that he is now a level four transcendent!

He pushed open the damaged door and saw the messy room and the broken body of Commander Walker. The attack of the Void Wind Elemental was accompanied by a powerful lightning force, so the wounds of the broken limbs were basically charred by lightning, and not much blood flowed out. Walker's head was still intact. He looked to be in his fifties, with gray hair and beard, and a frozen look of astonishment on his face.

Victor and Walker of the famous Yinpanjiao family had never met each other before, and they had no grudges against each other. It was just because their positions were sharply opposed that he had sufficient reason to kill this strange swordsman.

There was another half-elf female survivor in the dark room. She was naked, about 27 or 28 years old, beautiful, healthy wheat-colored skin, firm breasts, hips, long legs and thin waist, and a graceful and attractive figure. At this moment, she was holding her breath and hiding under the broken bed, trying to hide her figure in the darkness after the candle was extinguished.

To be able to survive the turbulent airflow of the wind element, she must be a professional and an agile type, able to react quickly and use the furniture in the room as cover, so she only suffered minor injuries.

Victor was confused, he thought killing the woman would be the wise choice, but Aunt Sarah once taught him that he should not commit unnecessary killings, especially against women and children who posed no threat.

An unarmed woman without even a piece of clothing on her body, even if she is a professional, does not pose a threat to Victor.

So, what is the right choice?

Victor was very conflicted. After all, he was less than three years old when his secondary personality awakened. Although he was much smarter than ordinary people, he still lacked life experience.

Moreover, Victor, who is in the wind element affinity state, has a fickle temperament, is proud and easily angered.

The Dragon Vein bartender in the lobby on the first floor had previously scolded Victor's private female slave, so he decided to kill Commander Walker and his dragoon minions with a frontal attack.

Now, Victor didn't want to kill this female professional.

On the one hand, he had just killed Walker and vented his anger; on the other hand, the proud ice-blue-eyed Victor disdained to attack the weak half-elf female.

However, it would also be foolish to let the other party live to tip off.

The clever Victor immediately thought of a way to resolve his troubles. He deliberately walked into the house in the dark, pretending not to notice the female professional, providing her with an opportunity to attack him.

Once this female professional attacks Victor, she will no longer be a weak woman who poses no threat and can be killed with reason.

Sure enough, when Victor bent over with his back to her, the female professional couldn't help but touch a dagger on the ground. After she got the dagger, her nature changed, from a harmless half-elf woman to an enemy ready to backstab.

Victor raised an eyebrow and turned to finish off the despicable enemy.

At this moment, a dragoon whose whole body was covered in flames in the corridor screamed in pain and jumped around uncontrollably. He was rushing back and forth in front of the door of Room 11.

The firelight allowed the female professional to see Victor's handsome face like a god. The attraction from deep in her blood made her lose consciousness for a moment.

With a clang, the dagger she had just picked up fell to the ground.

Victor was stunned. The enemy who was planning to attack him from behind had dropped his weapon and turned back into a weak, unarmed woman.

The burning Dalina was harvesting the dragon riders ignited by supernatural flames. She passed by the door and found a naked half-elf female in the room who was confronting her master?

So, the alchemist, whose evil nature was prevailing, rushed into the room, grabbed the female, bit her neck, and sucked her blood in big gulps, plundering her life and soul, and solving her master's troubles in the process.

Victor let out a breath, a relaxed smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, he turned and rushed out of the room to join the battle against the enemies on the sixth floor.
