Wizard: Surviving in the Steam Age with Points for Demon Hunter

Chapter 78 Blood of Chaos

However, the guards of the manor clearly noticed the commotion inside.

A number of guards dressed in dark green leather combat suits ran from the perimeter of the manor toward the main building.

Marco summoned his lantern-wielding staff and asked eagerly, "Shall we make a move?"

"Wait a minute,"

Lacey didn't answer, but instead glanced at the guards emerging from the trees, the grass, and the fountain, frowning as she said, "This isn't the kind of guard force an ordinary nobleman should have..."

"All families that can establish themselves in the Natoli district are like this," Marco said with a sneer. "Our Nascimento family alone has more than 300 guards, not including servants and superhumans."

Wei En silently calculated, "724."

"What?"

"There were 724 guards who just stormed into the main building."

Marco grinned, a hint of schadenfreude in his eyes. "The Ceres family has so many extra guards; according to the laws of Charlotten, this fine alone will be enough to make them wince."

"The city-state council and the noble committee will have plenty of room for wrangling again."

Wayne nodded. He wasn't concerned with how busy the city council and the noble council were, but rather with the secrets hidden behind the scenes by the Ceres family.

It should be noted that many of these guards are extraordinary individuals. For them, simply having gold pounds is not enough; they also need other forms of support.

For example, equipment, knowledge, and all the resources needed to improve strength.

"Young Master Rutger!?"

At that moment, Collins's exclamation echoed throughout the manor, "Catch them! We can't let them get away!"

Click,

With a sharp crack, the glass on the third floor of the main building shattered.

Then more than forty people dressed in the uniforms of the Ceres family guards jumped down and rushed towards Wayne and his group.

Lacey frowned slightly, and two axes instantly appeared in her hands. "Prepare for battle."

"Wein, take Tina and step back a bit," Marco gestured.

"it is good."

Wayne decisively pulled Tina back a few steps; he had already noticed that the panel was refreshing again.

[You are targeted by Modeste Benavides with murderous intent. Assessment: He's appeared. You know what to do, right? Reward: Survival Points +1.]

【…】

[You are targeted by Elno Vázquez's murderous intent. Assessment: This is not someone you can handle. Reward: Survival Points +2.]

Things started to go wrong.

Vázquez, are these guys with Collins?

With that thought in mind, Wayne silently connected with the ghost and the driver, and cast a spell.

Ghost: "Diagoraja!" (Undead summoning!)

Driver: "Abdul Jalil!" (The Mechanical Box!)

Two rune arrays flashed by, and Miss Zombie Shara appeared on the summoning array with a blank expression.

Meanwhile, Wayne had already reached into the mechanical door, retrieved the musket, and was rapidly loading bullets.

Lacey noticed the ripples behind her, glanced at them, and a hint of surprise flashed in her brown eyes.

Is this definitely a Mechanical Box spell?

Where...

"Where did you get such a huge mechanical door?? Wayne, is there something wrong with your Mechanical Box spell?" Marco asked, directly voicing her thoughts.

He glanced back as well, nearly popping his eyes out.

If the occasion hadn't been inappropriate, he would have already reached out and touched it.

"Uh, is it big?" Wayne's hands kept moving, and he was not sure of the difference between the mechanical boxes he had cast and the ones cast by others.

But shouldn't there be some anomalies in the Bleach version?

He had noticed that the musket was emitting a faint black aura, very weak, but clearly different from before.

This should be what it looks like after the death trait is added.

"Big, very big, I..."

"Shut up," Lacey hissed. "Be careful, there's something fishy about these people."

Her gaze was fixed on the group of people in the lead, especially on the tattoos that were showing on their necks. There was a sense of familiarity to it, as if she had seen it somewhere before.

"Marco, the light breeze."

"Something's definitely not right; there's a captain-level officer among them!"

Marco turned around and saw clearly the people rushing towards him. His eyes narrowed, and he quickly flicked his lantern. "Zack, Brue, Zack." (Light Breeze.)

Immediately afterwards, four small tornadoes appeared around him and instantly appeared on the four people.

Wei En felt a rising force from the whirlwind beneath him, making his body feel lighter.

Wow, Marco is amazing!

"These people aren't targeting us, so we should avoid taking action if possible," Lacey added.

"clear."

As Wayne gazed at the men, feeling the familiar touch of the muskets, his heart gradually calmed down.

It was as if the world around him had become quiet, and he was the only one holding a gun, facing those "enemies".

Just like the gunman seen in that illusion, he was like a thousand troops with just a gun, and no monster could withstand his single shot.

At this moment, Miss Zombie stood in front of him, leaning forward, and several black rays of light emerged from her fingernails, resembling sharp hand knives.

The two little Axis watched the guards with excited expressions, like spectators...

In fact, those people had noticed Wei En and his group long ago, but they did not slow down and charged straight at them.

"Damn ominous creature, get out of here! This is none of your business."

"Eno, stop wasting time talking to them and just charge in."

"Rush!"

Just then, Collins rushed out of the main building and shouted in their direction, "Captain Lacey, please help us stop them! We'll pay you!"

The acting was actually quite convincing...

Wern has been identified as the leader, and he is definitely connected to Collins behind him.

While they don't look exactly alike, they do share many similarities in their eyes and brows.

Brothers? Or father and son?

"Lassie, make a decision quickly, should you accept or not?"

"Acyriel".

Lacey's hands-on skills were clearly superior to her words; she raised her two-handed axe high and swung it horizontally, unleashing a massive wind blade.

Seeing this, Marco understood her choice and then drew a circle with his lantern staff held horizontally.

"Apu, Erde, Leol!" (Blood of Chaos!)

As he uttered the González language, Marco's body swelled up, and his red ponytail spread out behind his head, curling forward like a sword and piercing his cheek, completely enveloping his head.

???

Seeing this from behind, Wayne wondered what kind of bizarre transformation technique this was.

Then his body swelled up a few more times, and he became twice as tall as before.

In no time, his face changed—he had a thick red beard, wide-open eyes like copper bells, and a broad mouth and nose.

"I'm going, Lacey."

boom,

In an instant, the giant Marco was behind Lacey's wind blade and rushed into the crowd along with it.

The leader cursed, "Damn it, it's a captain-level powerhouse, Eno."

"Leave it to me, you take the rest of the men and keep pushing out."

After speaking, the man named Enoch did not stop. He wielded a scimitar and cleaved the wind blades, then slashed at Marco diagonally.

"Yenish." (Bone-crushing.)

Marco was not afraid at all. Taking advantage of his height, he swung his staff down.

Click, bang.

A gust of wind, accompanied by a violent collision, swept outwards, and those with weaker strength were even blown to the ground by the wind.

The two then clashed violently, their scimitars and staffs locked in combat.

But the gale-force winds no longer swept through; Marco had consciously gathered them together, forming several violent tornadoes that circled around them.

"die……"
