Versatile Mage: Lord of the Styx, but Lord of the Living

Chapter 266 Eileen: That was exciting! Going all out!
This small team, hastily assembled from Spain, France, India, and others to hunt down the giant ape leader, was now shrouded in a long, dark curtain.

We've been ambushed!

Now that the Night Watchers have established their rule, they can't leave even if they wanted to!

Being ambushed by the mind-based attacks allowed the Great Ape Commander to launch a counterattack against them without any restrictions.

However, they couldn't bear to crush the spatial scroll and leave the treasure-hunting space directly, so they could only struggle to hold on and frantically curse the people who had ambushed them.

"Damn it, come out and fight me one-on-one if you dare!"

"Damn it, which piece of trash who has cultivated both shadow and mind magic is hiding in the shadows and plotting against people?"

They greeted him in all sorts of crude and vulgar local dialects.

In the shadows, Eileen, who had been bewitched by Lu Ran and had also used mind magic, had a flushed face and was clearly very embarrassed.

As a noble duke, she had never ambushed anyone in the shadows.

Now she's being insulted like this; she should have known better than to have intervened.

Lu Ran coughed lightly and said, "This is within the rules, and we're not related by blood or marriage. Why act like a saint?"

"Believe it or not, if I appear before them in a weakened state, they will definitely team up to eliminate me."

After Lu Ran finished speaking, he attacked without waiting for Eileen's reply!

Several giant shadow spikes shot out from the darkness ruled by Si Ye, striking each person's shadow with pinpoint accuracy.

In an instant, everyone was unable to move!

At the same time, a terrifying bolt of dark lightning exploded in the sky, crashing down on the giant ape's head and piercing it through!
One hit kill!

Everyone was shocked by the power of this lightning magic. At the same time, a million curses ran through their minds. The person behind this attack didn't even intend to give them a chance to use a spatial scroll!
Next, it's time to take stock of the spoils!
With the disappearance of Si Ye's rule, Lu Ran and Eileen were revealed.

Everyone was shocked!

Unexpectedly, the attackers were Lu Ran from Kyushu and Eileen from England!

Everyone was stunned. Lu Ran and Eileen were powerful and of noble status. Even if they were taken out individually, they could easily defeat any one of them.

These two actually launched a sneak attack?
Filled with confusion and disbelief, what's even more devastating is...

In front of everyone, Lu Ran directly pulled out the heart of the giant ape that commanded the demons, and put the bloody heart into his spatial ring.

Then, Lu Ran looked at them and said:

"Hand over the spoils. I don't need to lift a finger, do I?"

Everyone was stunned. Lu Ran not only ambushed them and stole their target, but also wanted their spoils?

Are you a human?

"Don't even think about it, even if I'm eliminated," one person said fiercely.

But Lu Ran was too lazy to waste words with him and directly used telekinesis to confiscate all the space rings on their hands.

"Now, you can head over to the treasure hunting space!"

Everyone was stunned. A heavy pressure descended upon them, and they actually felt the threat of death!
"No, don't kill me!"

Under Lu Ran's coercion, the prisoners took out their spatial scrolls one by one and activated them.

Four seconds later, they all disappeared.

Only Lu Ran and Eileen remained in place.

Lu Ran thought for a moment and divided the spoils into three parts: seven for himself and three for Eileen.

Eileen just made her move too. Even without her, I could have wiped them all out myself.

But since it had been agreed upon beforehand, this incident caused Eileen to also bear the blame, and Lu Ran readily made this suggestion.

How do you feel?

Eileen blushed, accepted the gift, and murmured softly:

"I have to say, it's kind of exciting!"

Outside, Eileen's supporters, whether joyful or worried, remained silent at this moment.

Grand Duchess Eileen, following Lu Ran, actually did something like this? It can only be said that the Grand Duchess has been corrupted.

Of course, some people also exclaimed that Lu Ran was truly remarkable, eliminating so many people at once!
Some people scoffed: "Those who were eliminated were just ordinary team members. Now that the captains of all the countries have gathered, let's see if Lu Ran will still be laughing later!"

As time passes by.

Lu Ran was lucky; he found Mu Ningxue and Mu Nujiao in succession, and they were all safe and sound.

But the others weren't so lucky.

When Lu Ran found Zhao Manyan, he was covered in wounds, having been chased and bombarded with magic by six people.

Fortunately, it was Zhao the Turtle; anyone else would probably have surrendered long ago, crushed the spatial scroll, and left.

Fortunately, Lu Ran intervened and saved him in time; otherwise, Zhao Manyan would have been sent directly out of the treasure-hunting space.

"Waaah, Brother Ran, you have to stand up for me!" Zhao Manyan pointed at the six men chasing him.

The six people, led by Pei Si, turned pale. They never expected to be so unlucky as to run into Lu Ran!

"Run! Spread the word that Lu Ran is here!" Pes sneered, then turned into a shadow and disappeared into the darkness.

Lu Ran's eyes narrowed slightly, and he sneered:

"You beat up my man and think you can just walk away?"

A swift and decisive strike!

A terrifying bolt of lightning jolted Pes out of the darkness.

Lu Ran showed no mercy, and amidst the roar of thunder, one by one, the fleeing figures fell to the ground.

Lu Ran swiftly defeated and sent away the six enemy soldiers who were targeting the Kyushu National Government team.

"Ran-ge is so fierce!" Zhao Manyan swallowed hard.

Faced with six people, he could only flee in a sorry state, while Lu Ran could easily fight six against one.

"We haven't found Xinxia yet, so please bear with it for now," Lu Ran said.

Zhao Manyan shrugged and laughed, "It's just a minor injury."

Eileen said from the side, "Lu Ran, I happen to have some restorative potions here."

Lu Ran blinked; he naturally also had recovery potions.

But it will cost a lot of money to heal Zhao Manyan's injuries.

Seeing that Eileen was being so generous because of Lu Ran, Zhao Manyan wisely shook his head and refused, indicating that he had his own reasons.

The group hadn't gone far when Lu Ran heard a sound using his mental power.

"She seems to be that blessing-type mage from the Kyushu National Government team? Let's take care of her!"

"Quick, don't let her get away!"

"Quickly, more members of the Kyushu National Government team have appeared!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Ran's expression instantly turned cold.

After briefly explaining that Xinxia was surrounded, Lu Ran immediately disappeared.

"I'll go ahead."

Another place.

Ye Xinxia's phoenix crown and cyan necklace played a role.

Two phantom images of phoenix-feathered green snakes, each capable of rivaling a powerful commander, appeared at both ends. Despite facing the combined attack of more than a dozen enemy mages, Ye Xinxia was still able to handle the situation with ease!
"My God, what level of magical artifact is this?"

"What a powerful phoenix phantom! I really want to snatch that crown magic artifact on her head!"

"Something's not right, she seems to be stalling for time!"

As everyone was bewildered, they discovered that a long night had enveloped the area.

Meanwhile, the eagle eyes monitoring this area were also blinded by darkness.

This means that Lu Ran is going to take drastic measures!
