Sanctuary Paradise

Chapter 755 Do you...like the Black Sword?

In the southern continent, there are hidden ruins in the Kaza Mountains.

"Xiao Ye, Lu Xi, cover Brother Liezhan!"

"Tianjiu! Use your ultimate skill to clear the way. Don't give this guy a chance to catch his breath!"

"Understood!" "Got it!"

Boom——! !

A deafening thunder roared from a vast underground cave filled with traces of burning and explosions. Tian Duan, the captain of the new team, shouted on the communication channel.

He suddenly stepped on the air, using the broad and heavy sword floating in the air as a stepping stone. He instantly turned into a residual image, and passed through the lightning amid the talismans thrown by his teammates behind him and the roar of thunder in the sky, and slashed at the two-headed stone dragon in front of him with a sword.

"Roar--!!"

Facing Tianduan who was rushing towards it, the two-headed stone dragon, with most of its body pinned down by the collapsed boulders and several pure white chains, let out a low roar. A terrifying red light rose in its ruby-made dragon eyes. It opened its mouth and suddenly spit out an extremely dazzling dragon breath in the direction of Tianduan.

"Drink ah ah ah!!"

Tianduan faced the dragon's breath without any sign of retreat in his eyes. He slashed at the dragon's head with his sword without dodging or evading. Almost at the moment when the dragon's breath was about to hit it, Zhengtan and Zhengyu, who served as the seniors of the two teams, rushed out from the left and right, roared and passed by Tianduan.

Boom!

A heavy crash was heard, and two main tanks from the Church of Justice pushed back the dragon's breath exhaled by the two-headed stone dragon, and sent one of the two-headed stone dragon's heads flying onto the rock wall like two cannonballs.

"Brother Liezhan!" "Understood!!"

Zheng——! !

The next moment, two clanging sounds of swords were heard. Almost at the moment when the two-headed dragon was controlled by its own tank, Tianduan and Liezhan, who had been prepared long ago, flew through the air in an instant, and the swords in their hands hit the two-headed stone dragon's neck heavily.

"Roar…!"

A dull collision sound and an unwilling roar sounded, and then everything stopped abruptly. Two dragon heads that were more than three meters long fell heavily to the ground. At the same time, a cold reminder sounded in the minds of everyone in the two teams present:

[Hint: The second-level leader unit, Kaza Ruins Guardian, has been killed, the source of the world +3.3%]

[Hint: You have obtained "Treasure Chest·Gold"]

Become!

Wow——! !

Seeing the kill prompt and the golden treasure chest floating out from the corpse of the two-headed stone dragon, the new contractors present breathed a sigh of relief. Tianduan and Liezhan, who were at the front, sat down on the ground, gasping for breath, looking relieved.

"Great, it worked!" "By the way, how many treasure chests did we get this time?"

"I don't know, but it must be in the three digits! Hehe, this is the first time I've seen so many treasure chests!"

As the boss battle came to an end, the orange-haired sun priest Ju Huoer and the other new contractors in the back breathed a sigh of relief, cheering and celebrating excitedly.

"Senior Argo, I'm leaving this treasure chest in your hands as well."

"Ah."

After a short rest, Tianduan stood up and looked at Bell who had been observing their situation on the side, and spoke. Bell nodded when he heard it, and with a thought, he put the golden treasure chest into his own treasure chest space.

As first-level contractors, Tianduan and others' personal storage spaces are basically less than 10 cubic meters. Even if the team storage space is included, it can only hold the spare equipment and various props they should bring this time, as well as some high-value materials encountered on the road. It is not enough to hold treasure chests, so the treasure chests of the two teams along the way are basically stored on his side.

This is also one of the reasons why Xin Lailai asked him to come here. After all, the purpose of these top-level third-level strongmen instructing Tianduan and others is to let them enter the hidden area to gain benefits, rather than pure training.

If the treasure chests that cannot hold the new contractors were to be wasted in order to develop the abilities of Tianduan and others, that would be a waste of time.

"Let's go, it's time to go back. Everyone has performed very well this time. I believe that you will all become excellent contractors in the future."

After the excitement of the new contractors present passed, Bell reached out and pulled up Tianduan, who was lying on the ground to rest, and looked at the people in front of him, smiling and praising them.

"Well, then I'll ask Senior Agor for your blessing."

In response to Bell's praise, Tianduan nodded slightly, thanked him with a smile, then looked back at the corpse of the two-headed stone dragon behind him that was gradually disintegrating into dust due to the dissipation of magic power, with a hint of heat and anticipation in his eyes.

Not only him, in fact, if you observe carefully, you will find that the faces of the new contractors present all have similar expressions of excitement and expectation.

Although these new contractors were not the main participants of this tea party, after experiencing the first battle, they were already looking forward to the continuation of this journey.

……

Tianmai Dragon Island, outskirts.

"Uncle Daofa!" "Yes, it looks like it's going smoothly."

"By the way, Mr. Daofa, do you know where Brother Black Sword is?"

"Fellow Daoist Black Sword? If I remember correctly, he seems to be discussing Taoism with Lady Star in the forest in the south."

A peaceful voice filled with righteousness came from a cliff near the edge of the island. On the cliff, Daofa and Mingyu were sitting opposite each other in front of a chess and card. Beside them were Bell, who had just returned from the ground, and a group of new contractors.

Brother Black Sword is with Miss Star Girl now?

Hearing Daofa's answer, Bell's expression froze suddenly. After struggling in his mind for several seconds, he mustered up the courage to continue walking in the direction Daofa pointed out, but his eyelids still twitched uncontrollably.

"With Brother Black Sword here, Miss Star Girl shouldn't dare to do anything too extreme..."

After thinking about the intimidating power of the black-haired young man in his mind and recalling the other party's previous "advice", Bell took a deep breath, a look of determination appeared on his face, and strode resolutely towards the forest in his sight.

Just as the black-haired young man said, escape is not a permanent solution. Now that we have the black-haired young man as our shelter, it is a perfect opportunity to face it.

Then, Bell's mind moved, and the next second, a clear bell sound rang from the surroundings along with the white light gathered under his feet. Then, his figure turned into a stream of light with a bang, and rushed away into the distance with a series of sharp sounds of breaking through the air.

After becoming the Judge, with the notarization of Paradise, he not only successfully retained the "Heroic Vision" ability that was awakened in the derivative world, but also underwent a huge transformation under the inheritance of the World Guardian provided by Paradise. This was also an important reason why he was able to join the top echelon with only a master-level passive skill on Dark Star.

Well, although I don't know why, Bell always feels that he uses this ability to escape more often than in other situations, especially when he encounters those who are stronger than him. But he is confident that as long as he moves towards the figure he longs for, one day he will be able to change this situation.

……

Tianmai Dragon Island, southern forest area.

Wow——! !

A sharp sound of breaking air passed through the forest, and Bell's figure landed steadily on the soft ground covered with branches and leaves, looking around.

Is this the place Mr. Daofa mentioned? I don’t see Brother Black Sword. Why don’t I just ask directly…

Boom! ! !

Bell was looking at the surrounding scene and was about to ask the black-haired young man directly when a deafening roar suddenly exploded from his eardrum, along with a trembling feeling that spread throughout the forest.

What's going on? Did Miss Star and Brother Black Sword fight? !

Bell sensed the familiar aura of star power that suddenly erupted in front of him. He paused for a moment, not caring about anything else. He took a decisive step forward. His figure turned into a stream of light and rushed straight into the depths of the forest. Then...

"Argo?"

A pleasant voice was heard suddenly, and a figure shrouded in starlight was seen falling gracefully from the side. Bell was startled and looked at the star girl who was falling from another direction beside him in some astonishment.

"Miss Xingnu, how come you..."

"Well, what's wrong with me?"

Stargirl twirled her hair with one hand and tilted her head to look at Bell at a perfect angle, letting the breeze from the woods blow her skirt around as she asked with a smile.

"No, nothing. I thought you had a conflict with Brother Black Sword."

Looking at the star girl who was emitting amazing charm in front of him, Bell was startled at first, his pupils reflecting the star girl's star-colored socks that just happened to show out from the raised hem of her skirt. Then he quickly turned his head away, coughed lightly, and answered nervously.

"Pfft, I see. Well, I really have to thank you for thinking so highly of me, Argo. You actually think I have the courage to clash with a monster like that?"

Upon hearing this, Xingnu chuckled, revealing a beautiful smile on her face. She smiled and walked towards Bell and said:

"The noise just now was just caused by Lord Black Sword using my star power to test his spells. I was afraid of being affected, so I had to take refuge outside the forest. However, I didn't expect to meet you, Lord Argo. It seems that we are really destined to meet."

The star girl smiled and said, unknowingly she had walked in front of Bell, lifted her hair, looked down at Bell who was about half a head shorter than her, chuckled, lowered her head to the ear of the white-haired boy, and whispered:

"By the way, Argo, you just rushed over so nervously. Can I understand that you were worried about me?"

"I……!"

Facing the sudden attack from the Star Girl, Bell's face suddenly showed a trace of nervousness and panic. He subconsciously wanted to take a step back to distance himself, but because his feet were full of soft fallen leaves, he suddenly stepped on empty air, and his figure suddenly stumbled, and then...

"Hmm? Lord Argo is really careless. He actually revealed such a flaw? Could it be... that he deliberately lured me into doing this?"

Suddenly, a snow-white arm dotted with starlight embraced Bell, who fell backwards due to missing a step, and the posture of the two suddenly changed into the classic posture of the prince saving the princess in a fairy tale.

Bell's breathing froze for a moment, and he had to try his best to turn his gaze away, ignoring the scent of hair falling on his face. While avoiding the star girl's gaze, he said stiffly:
"Um... Miss Star Girl, can you let me go first? I came here this time to... to find Brother Black Sword!"

"Oh, is it so?"

Hearing the white-haired boy mention the word "black sword" again, the Star Girl narrowed her eyes unconsciously, staring at Bell's face, and uttered a soft "oh". A hint of danger flashed in her eyes that were as gorgeous as the starry sky.

"If that's the case, I can let Lord Argo go, but you have to answer a question for me first."

Answer a question from the other person?
Bell heard this and glanced at the other person's eyes. His heart skipped a beat and he subconsciously wanted to find an excuse to get away with it. However, he found that he could not break free from the restraints of Star Girl, who was a LV.20 fighting master. So he could only nod his head stiffly and stammered:
"No... no problem."

"very good."

Hearing this, Xingnu showed a satisfied smile on her face. She stared at the white-haired boy in front of her, staring at his ruby-like clear pupils, narrowed her eyes slightly, and spoke word by word:

"Argo, let me ask you..."

"Do you... like the Black Sword?"

"???"

……

Tianmai Dragon Island, deep in the southern forest.

"Ah sneeze!!!"

"Tsk, why did I feel like someone was talking about me just now?"

"Hmm... maybe Bell is being entangled by Star Girl and Saint Ji again, and is asking for help from you, Lailai, in his heart?"

"Is that so? Well, there's nothing we can do. I'm busy right now, so Bell can only rely on himself. Besides, we just asked Star Girl for a batch of star power, so it's a bit inappropriate to interrupt her now."

A huge sound of airflow swept in from deep within the forest. In an area that had been sucked into a vacuum due to gravitational turbulence, a black-haired young man was staring at the instrument and the data on it with shining eyes, completely ignoring the girl's reminder in his mind.

"I suddenly feel that the person Bell admires is Lailai. You are so pitiful..."

Ling Yuzi, who was assisting the black-haired young man in conducting various experiments in the soul space, sensed the other party's thoughts and couldn't help but sigh.

"Well, let's be honest, it seems to be true. Okay, don't waste time, hurry up! Try the next spell model quickly. I have a hunch that it will work this time!!"

"Laile, you said that half an hour ago, and you almost destroyed the equipment."

"Well, I just want to explore boldly. Well, come and give me a hand, I'm ready!"

So, after a brief exchange, the black-haired young man, who had a very clear understanding of his own position, looked at the instrument in front of him without any guilt, and continued to immerse himself in it with excitement.
