Wizard: I brought the wrong system.

Chapter 244 Solution
This kind of information wasn't considered confidential; any local superhuman could easily find out about it. So Edmund didn't take any precautions and never even considered using it to blackmail Yaro.

Just like a free citizen living in a big city, when someone asks where the market is, they wouldn't think of using that question to blackmail the other person.

After all, if we don't ask you, wouldn't it be the same if we asked someone else?
Are you afraid of not running into anyone while walking down the street?
"Sir, the Mannheim market is right here..."

Edmund spoke without any warning, unaware of the awkward situation Yarrow was in.

In complete darkness, how could Yaro dare to wander around outside, or brazenly seek out superhumans for directions?
He could only stay in a safe corner and crouch down, cautiously probing outwards.

Edmund had seen the record stone about Yarrow before, and now he had been brutally defeated by Yarrow. In his mind, Yarrow was so fearless and incredibly powerful. Under this preconceived notion, he naturally did not know that such a small matter could actually stump the 'incredibly powerful' Yarrow.

So... Edmund never expected that, just as he finished speaking, an overwhelming wave of flames would suddenly sweep in!

"Demon Strike Technique - Phoenix Annihilation!"

The intense power of the abyss clung to the Fiery Greatsword, unleashing all its accumulated firepower in an instant.

"Chirp—!"

The Black Flame Phoenix let out a bloodthirsty cry.

The power of the abyss vibrated through the viscous flames, like a crushing machine made of flames, trying to grind that emaciated body into dust!
"Do not--!"

The skull, constantly fading in the flames, opened and closed slightly, emitting a desperate roar.

The firelight illuminated Yaro's eyes, casting dappled halos on his face. The black flame phoenix behind him shattered inch by inch, and the system followed closely behind, displaying experience data.

……

[Ding! Defeat the enemy, Cat-Style Fist - Climbing Tree grants 71 skill experience points]

[Ding! Defeat the enemy, Cat-Style Fist - Running grants 150 skill experience points]

[Ding! Defeat the enemy, Knight's Breathing Technique gains 86 skill experience points]

[Ding! Defeat the enemy, Solar Fist gains 354 skill experience points]

[Ding! Defeat the enemy, and the Fiery Sword Technique has gained 563 skill experience points]

[Ding! Defeat the enemy, Magic Strike skill gains 758 experience points]

[Converted into personal experience, personal experience points increased by 870]

[Remaining skill points: 1]

[Personal Level LV21: 2809/30000]

……

With over two thousand experience points, more than a single Lost One, it certainly matches the Blood Bat's strength.

Yaro nodded with satisfaction.

not bad!

"Yaluo..." Bai Lu hesitated, her delicate brows furrowed, showing great concern.

Yaro turned back and reassured him, "Don't worry, I didn't continue to mistreat him."

How can killing someone outright be considered torture?

Yaro would not let Edmund go.

He knew all too well how troublesome blood bats could be.

Unless it is annihilated directly with extraordinary power, the only option is to weaken it continuously, as before, until it can be eliminated with a little bit of power.

Such a formidable opponent; apart from Yaro, no one here can keep an eye on him.

Judging from the outcome of the previous exchange, only by activating the Magic Strike Technique could Yaro suppress him. However, without a purification potion, the Magic Strike Technique cannot be easily activated. Lacking methods of confinement, and unable to readily employ methods of suppression, it is naturally impossible to imprison him.

Release him?

That's even more impossible!
Who knows if he's telling the truth or not?

Couldn't the location he mentioned also be a trap?

Who can testify to what he said?
Will he hold a grudge and be ready to retaliate at any time?

Or it could directly attract the attention of wanted criminals?

Moreover... for human traffickers, killing them is the best option!

Yaro squinted, surveying the dim sky, and asked, "White Deer, did you notice where that crow went?"

The white deer said weakly, "Crow? I don't know? I've kept my eyes closed the whole time."

Hearing her tired voice, Yaro turned around and saw only a pair of bright, clear eyes.

The night was too deep; the few flames ahead were barely enough to illuminate the jungle.

Yaro opened his right hand, and a ball of light floated up, releasing a bright glow.

Only then did Yaro see that the white deer was still sitting on the spot, its eyes closed, and it still hadn't gotten up.

He walked over in a few steps, ignoring the commotion of the deer around him, and squatted down to ask worriedly, "Why do you seem so weak? Did he cast some kind of spell on you?"

"No, I've had too much blood drained, and my body feels a bit weak. I'll be fine after resting for a while," Bai Lu said, her eyes closed and her smooth, algae-green hair swaying as she peered around.

Seeing Bai Lu's silly look, Ya Luo couldn't help but chuckle and quickly reminded her, "Alright, you can open your eyes now."

"Okay?"

Her beautiful, algae-green eyelashes fluttered open, revealing clear, beautiful eyes as blue as a lake.

"Humph!"

Bai Lu let out a soft groan, her brows furrowed slightly, and she blinked her big eyes, looking quite uncomfortable.

It turned out that his eyes had been stung by the flying orb of light that was following closely behind Yaro.

With a slight shift in his consciousness, Yaro's light dimmed, transforming into a low, round moon.

"Where's that blood bat from before?" Bai Lu looked around and asked, puzzled.

Yaro tilted his head slightly, gesturing to the flames burning not far away: "There, that's it."

"You still killed him?" Bai Lu looked at Ya Luo's eyes with concern. "You already have a lot of killing intent in your heart. If you kill people like this, the power of the abyss will have an increasingly greater impact on your emotions."

Yaro smiled slightly: "I examine myself three times a day... I mean, I think and judge every day whether I have made the wrong choice. When we fight again, the power of the abyss may continue to have a greater impact on me, but in daily life, with rational control, I will not change much."

Yaro also noticed that his emotions became increasingly volatile during subsequent battles when he activated his magic.

The last time I encountered a harpy, she attacked with 'Phoenix Annihilation'.

This time, encountering blood bats, he actually began to enjoy the torment.

This must be because the body has been exposed to the power of the abyss too much, and it hasn't been completely dispelled. When the Demon Strike Technique is activated again, the anger in the heart is constantly amplified, and the attacks become increasingly reckless.

Yaro explained, “Don’t worry, I killed him after careful consideration, not on impulse.”

"The rational decision was to kill him?" Bai Lu looked at Ya Luo in surprise.

“Yes, after rational consideration, I think it would be better if he died,” Yaro said with a smile. “White Deer, you wouldn’t like having a ferocious beast always eyeing you, would you?”
