The red moon returns

Chapter 497 Complete Victory
It was a big gamble, and Lynch won, but it was a very thrilling win.

In the few lightning-fast seconds just now, every moment was full of uncertainty, especially the last moment, when Lynch summoned the Hound of Tindalos, the uncertainty reached its peak.

Pure physical attacks are ineffective against hounds. If the opponent uses another dagger, it will not be considered an attack by the hounds at all. Then Lynch can only rely on death denial to withstand the fatal blow, and then find a way to escape and save himself. The summoned hounds will also chase him and Ms. Skye and bite him, causing him a lot of trouble. Fortunately, the blue light on the dagger is a symbol of poison. After adding the poison attack, the dagger can hurt the hound, so that he will be marked by the hound and become the hound's endless pursuit target.

But targeting is only the beginning. Lynch cannot be sure who the hound he summoned will target first. Skye, who has the most marks on his body, and Lynch himself, who summoned the hound, may both become the hound's first target. In comparison, the attacker with the new mark is least likely to be targeted first.

Fortunately, the opponent was strong enough, and the effective attack instantly killed the second or third level hounds. The hounds that chased after them at this time were here for revenge, and had nothing to do with Lynch and Skye, so they could only prioritize finding the attackers.

In addition, there is another biggest uncertainty, which is the opponent's reaction. If the opponent does not know the power of the hound, or simply chooses to die together, Lynch will still be stabbed in the chest, which is equivalent to making things worse.

But Lynch is willing to take a gamble. I bet that your gun... no, I bet that he knows what a hound is, that he is unwilling to die together with the dog before he is at his wit's end, and that he has no experience of being chased by a dog, so he won't be able to calmly finish off the dog.

With thorough preparation and luck on Lynch's side, the three of them won the round beautifully. The three low-level attackers were killed on the spot, the mid-level assassin who was chased by the hounds was doomed to die, and the attacker who was about to escape was reduced to ashes with the help of unexpected reinforcements.

Victory.

What’s more crucial is the sudden appearance of reinforcements.

With a casual wave of his hand, the powerful mid-level was easily crushed and turned into ashes silently. With such terrifyingly powerful strength, Lynch could guess that it was definitely a high-level, and a friendly high-level.

With this high-level expert, Lynch's still tense nerves finally relaxed a little, and at least he could take a breath.

"That was my brother, Space Milt, the apostle of the Ancient Eternal, with power level seven. Due to special circumstances as you know, he had to hide in a safe house for a long time. The situation was urgent just now, and he had no time to change his clothes. He could only meet you in such an embarrassed state. It was really rude."

Ms. Skye led the three people back to the living room. The Yisi people were still sitting on the sofa, keeping company with the corpses with a calm face. The Yisi people's body was just that of an ordinary person, without any fighting power, and it was definitely impossible for them to participate in the war. As for the Milt brothers and sisters...

"Just now, someone remotely broke through the defenses of our home, allowing several attackers to transfer directly in through space ability. It seems that they wanted to steal the Light of Miracle. I'm sorry, my brother and I have no practical experience, and our reaction was too slow, and we almost let them succeed. Fortunately, your strength and agility far exceeded our expectations. Not only are we safe and sound, but we also counterattacked successfully. Otherwise, we would not only let down our master's trust, but also you three friends."

Sure enough, this was Ms. Skye's brother, which made Lynch and Officer Natalie suddenly feel scared, relieved, and a little self-deprecating.

I didn't expect that there was a great god hiding quietly in this mansion. If the two had really had bad intentions when they first came, I'm afraid not even a trace of them would be left. And if the two hadn't won the favor of Milt's brother and sister that time, today's matter would never have been so smooth. It was just that with their low-level strength, they wanted to rescue the brother and sister at the beginning, which was really a bit presumptuous.

"You think too much. You really helped us a lot that time. My brother and I are very grateful to you."

The lives of the rich are always so vulgar and boring. There are several living rooms in the house. Ms. Skye took the three people and the Yis people to change the living room and prepare tea and snacks again. Then she explained:

"We can't do this to ordinary people. We were really in a difficult situation that day. You all saw my brother's situation. Without the shelter of the safe house, he would be targeted by countless hounds and wouldn't last for a few days. So my brother and I are very grateful to you."

???

Lin Qi thought of the blue fog that almost covered the sky and sun, which had made him lose the mood to estimate the number. A threat of this scale could not last for a few days? He realized that he had underestimated the terrifying power of the high-level.

"We are very happy to see that you have successfully obtained the Light of Miracle. It will belong to you from now on." Ms. Skye smiled, took the small medicine box handed over by Lynch and stroked it gently, "I hope you will use it well. Remember not to let it get out of control, otherwise the price of suppressing an advent-level wonder will be too high."

"What will happen if it loses control?" Ms. Skye said calmly, "It's not too drastic. It will just release the plague in our memories. If you want to suppress it, you either have to live in there for thirty-four years, or go in and dissolve the plague."

Damn it.

As an eyewitness who had seen the scene, Lin Qi was sweating profusely, and there was something wrong in the look in his eyes when he looked at the Light of Miracle. This thing was not safer than that broken mirror at all.

"Don't be nervous. Normally it's not easy to get it out of control. It's easy to contain it."

"Yeah, it's as simple as sending it to the Old Ones for safekeeping, right?"

"Oh, we are also afraid of being used by people with bad intentions, so we have to be careful. You see, what happened today proves that our worries are not wrong." Ms. Skye suddenly frowned and said seriously, "The one who broke through the defenses of our house and sent the assassin in was a high-level Soul-Separator who mastered the power of teleportation. Brother suspects it is..."

"Apostle of the Ancient Glimmer?"

"Yes, he is a follower of the Toad God Tsathoggua. It seems that you know this person?"

"It should be the one we know, named Kelvin, a seventh-level Soul Forsaken. His public identity is an official of a government-affiliated department of the Friedman Kingdom. He has caused us a lot of trouble. We just fought against him at a dance a few days ago."

"I will not do it again."

"what?"

"I mean, he probably won't have time to bother you in the future." Ms. Skye's eyes turned grim. "Not only did he behave hostilely, but he also wanted to harm our friends. It would be rude of us not to express our gratitude. I will have a good talk with him. Although it is difficult for high-ranking people to kill each other, I believe he will not have the energy to bother you for a long time now that I have targeted him."

Lynch felt relieved and happy, but he still said, "This way, Mr. Milt won't be in danger."

"This is not just my brother's business. You have to know that the deal he wants to disrupt is essentially a joint effort by Aforgomon the Wrathful, Taviel At-Umr the Ancient Eternal, and Yog-Sothoth the One of All. We are in no position to further target the people who ordered him, but we will still do our best to repay him as the executor."

Tsk, that's equivalent to making mortal enemies with the followers of Yog-Sothoth. You deserve it. You tricked me.

Lynch felt even better.

"But you still have to be careful. The opponent is stronger than you think. Even without Kelvin, there are probably other ways to continue to attack Miracle Light."

"I know, so I plan to hire a high-level bodyguard to escort us back to the Rhine."

Ms. Skye's expression was a little subtle: "Is it so easy to hire a high-level Soul Forsaken now?"

"It's okay, just trick him in." Lin Qi picked up the note on the coffee table and wrote hastily, "For example, tell him that I have learned a lot of details about the plague at the end of the Third Epoch. If you want to get the knowledge for free, come quickly. It's too late."
