The approaching mutant's limbs were already twitching and twisting, dancing wildly, no longer resembling a human. The large mass of purple-black flesh on his body resembled a living mollusk, stretching out like tentacles, as if trying to escape from his body.

His entire body was bound by black chains, which were covered with runes and the flesh of the annihilator, which was almost dry but still transmitted purple-black energy. Behind him was a circle of black metal rings, which provided him with a substitute for casting spells since he could no longer hold the staff.

Leon also couldn't understand how this kind of existence acted. All he saw in his spiritual vision was a spiritual line behind the enemy extending into the void behind him, which seemed to extend into the magical dimension. The same was true for the two Annihilation Knights.

When the mutant arrived, black electric balls immediately surrounded his body. He let out a sharp scream, and the magic power of the metal ring behind him increased, immediately causing his body to spew out black lightning and bombard downwards.

"Lulu! Set up a shield wall!" Li Ang immediately called Xiaoniu's name.

Alulu had already raised her shield and was observing the enemy's movements. She was still using the same shield as before, which was already scarred by battle and should have been discarded. Leon was planning to rebuild it during the interval of shipbuilding.

Facing a strong enemy, Li Ang reminded her to directly use the strongest defensive ability she currently possessed. Although this move could only be effective between the points in the phalanx, at this moment she only needed to protect her own team members.

Xiao Niu immediately introduced magic power to activate the set skills of the blue crystal armor. The water-colored armor around her body lit up, and the magic power gathered water elements that gushed out, lifting her cloak and making her fat skin look even whiter. The water elements rushed between Zoe in the magic swordsman's attire, Dorothy in the gorgeous magic attire, and Andasu in the dark leather armor, and a translucent light blue barrier rose out of thin air.

The barrier stretched upwards as the horned girl raised her arms, but because the equipment looked like decorative armor and she herself was also very surging and charming, from a visual perspective, it seemed like just a trick.

This is why we need to build a team. Newbis's power system makes it impossible for even the strongest to take care of the entire lineup alone when facing multiple powerful enemies or more complicated situations.

Black lightning struck and impacted the light blue barrier, reducing it visibly. However, this protection called "shield wall" did not look like a strong shield that directly blocked the enemy, but rather like a filter that filtered out the force. Perhaps the shield wall referred to the fact that the phalanx was composed of different nodes.

The subsequent thunderbolt encountered Dorothy's rising flower vines. Star crystals, dragon blood, sacred and thriving flower vines worked together to block the black lightning, and destroyed it through energy bombardment and its own magic devouring ability.

The vines of the magic flower were burned to varying degrees, but they regenerated immediately on the spot.

A suspended black thunder ball next to the Alien Roarer began to rotate, and was controlled by its power in the process. After rotating three times, it was thrown downwards by him. It was also silently filtered by the shield wall. The remaining power seemed much weaker and was still blocked by Dorothy.

However, then, several thunder balls began to spin together, and it was obvious that he wanted to throw them out at the same time.

Before that, Leon had completed the spiritual vision observation.

These enemies' spirituality is different from that of ordinary people. Even if their body structure is destroyed, they can still move with the help of the Annihilator's flesh and blood. Although it is definitely not as strong as Genoside's regeneration power, blind attacks are very inefficient.

He understood the key position of the Annihilator's flesh and blood in the spiritual structure, and with a piercing claw he grabbed it through the air, and the spiritual structure was instantly broken.

In mid-air, the Annihilator suddenly stopped, and its convulsing body stopped dancing.

The next moment, the annihilator flesh and blood around it shattered, and the dark chain mail also lost its strength. The buckles between them were broken by the violent magic power. The whole body softened, and the whole person fell from the air while shattering.

On the other hand, the other two Annihilation Knights were also dealt with by Ermei. Meimei was a little slower, so that Annihilation Knight still had Farina's dragon flame on him.

With the current strength around Leon, it is not difficult to deal with a few Annihilation Knights.

However, the noise of the battle here attracted the attention of people around, but the noise was too loud, so they didn't dare to go out and ask.

When Leon was dealing with the mutants, he saw that the magic flow ejected by the two extremely burly black-armored knights when they raised their swords almost created pure magic lightning blades that could chop a house into pieces. It was also because of the two "former saviors" who were there, otherwise the fight would have taken a long time, or at least some houses would have been destroyed.

Having said that, Xiao Mo's house was already shaky and almost collapsed.

Leon asked the others to stay outside, and he and Farina held up a shield above their heads and entered the house, but after a quick look around, they could only see the damage caused by the Imperial Annihilators when they ambushed and attacked. The earlier traces should have been left when they sneaked in.

Were they waiting for Xiao Mo, or had Xiao Mo already encountered a problem? Li Ang was unsure.

Not finding any information that revealed the truth, the two men came out when the house began to collapse.

However, even Lancelot escaped when he encountered the Annihilation Knight, so Xiao Mo should not have any big problems. The main reason is that the guy is good at escaping, otherwise it would not be in line with the style of the Super Lucky Group.

Uh, that doesn't seem very respectful to Lancelot. Li Ang thought to himself that he wouldn't sneeze in the Ignis airspace at this time.

"What's going on? Why is the Annihilation Knight here?" Dorothy asked.

Not only her, but others also have this question.

It was the first time for the three members of the Star Flower Brigade and Farina to see this kind of enemy. They walked to the remains of their armor and observed them carefully. Zoe poked at the armor with her sword.

The crisis has passed and the mood has gradually calmed down. Xiaomao even compared the sharp blades on his Cursed Swordsman Armor and the Hell Blade Armor of the Annihilation Knight.

"The Empire should be causing trouble everywhere. They would have done so anyway, but they are just much slower here," said Meimei.

"Just chop it off when you see it." Meluna remained calm.

"Is this the power of the Annihilator? It's really weird. Even the power of Lord Dark Dragon is not so twisted. The Star Soul is really... complicated." Farina sighed.

Alulu clasped her hands together, closed her eyes and prayed to the goddess.

"Since these guys are here, it means that the Empire has a presence in the Helm City, and a conspiracy is brewing here."

Li Ang hooked his finger. Some of the prying eyes around him were trying to get closer. He gestured for everyone to put on their cloaks and leave.

All the equipment and flesh on the Annihilation Knight will be destroyed as the power of the Annihilation Star Soul dissipates. Except for the Helmet of the Divine Eye, Leon took these things away. The others worked together to smash them with magic power, and after a simple cleanup of the scene, they quickly left.

As they walked, Leon said, "Since the Super Luck Group's main base is here, they are familiar with the Helm City and should be able to detect any changes."

"I guess the whole group or most of the main force is out on a mission," Farina said. "Xiao Mo told me last time that if the team is dispatched, they will take turns to send people to guard the place, and sometimes it will be his turn."

The Dragon Witch pondered and said, "The fact that there are Imperial forces lurking in his home might mean that he should be stationed here."

"I agree." Li Ang said.

Therefore, the most urgent task is to find Xiao Mo.

The group disappeared into the crowd on the street, the people who came for the ceremony serving as cover. Feeling no one was following them, they put away their cloaks and walked back into a nice restaurant.

Of course we have to eat. After a busy day and walking, everyone is hungry. It is okay to discuss things while eating.

This time, Meluna sat down at the table calmly. Leon thought about how she had just participated in the battle and helped, so he didn't want to drive her away, but he just didn't allow her to sit next to him.

While ordering food, Leon asked Farina about Xiaomo's situation in the Rudder City and introduced this old friend to others.

Xiao Mo's full name is Duncan Morales. His profession is a thief, or a wanderer. This seems to be a dishonorable profession, but in fact it is a positioning of a professional who has some abilities of professions such as scout, stealth, assassin, ranger, etc. but is not proficient in any of them.

Morales's fighting skills are naturally good, otherwise he would not have been recognized by his old friends and joined the top four group. However, his attack range is not very prominent. He is mainly good at sneak attacks, and he is much weaker in grappling and fighting.

He is naturally friendly to shadows and can hide and move around in them, being very slippery.

Li Ang thought there was a high possibility that he was fine, but he just didn't know where he was.

While Farina and I were thinking silently, the food was served on the table and everyone started eating.

The shipbuilding plan that they thought was going to be a happy one was interrupted by the Empire again. The girls were all indignant, especially Zoe.

"Why are they everywhere?" the kitten said viciously while gnawing on the meat and bone stick.

Yes, why? Leon thought, this might be the performance of the Empire as the biggest villain in the early and middle stages of "Newbis Fantasy".

Their table was relatively quiet, but the tables next to them were very lively. Most of the people chatting here were passengers who had come to the Rudder City in the past few days, discussing the exciting performance of the airship racing training competition.

Everyone was eating when suddenly a man came from not far away and approached the table directly. He was not a waiter. He was wearing casual clothes, but he was wearing a mask, which was very suspicious.

Andasu, who was closest to him, stood up immediately, turned his wrist, and the chain blade was ready to stab out.

"Oh oh oh, wait a minute, friend, friend."

Li Ang felt that the voice was somewhat familiar. Andasu frowned and stopped attacking.

"As expected of all of you who won the Silver Arena, as expected of all of you who are Platinum Aces, your demeanor has truly risen to new heights."

The visitor looked at Andasu with admiration in his eyes, without any negative connotations.

Although she was already very eye-catching then, after trimming her hair and freeing herself from the spiritual curse, she now stands out from the crowd just by her looks.

After Mengze Island, she showed an inexplicable charm. If she looked more like a beautiful boy before showing her girlish shyness, it is difficult to mistake her for a boy now. Even if you don't look at her, her beautiful figure makes it impossible to make a mistake.

It was as if he knew Andasu.

"That voice," Zoe stood up and pointed at the person who came, "You are that loudmouth Ade!"

"Exactly... Oh, what do you mean exactly, little miss? This is how I appear in your memory."

The man pulled off his mask, and saw that the corner of his mouth was injured and cracked, so he really needed to cover it. But because he was not wearing a mask and his hairstyle was not as wild as it was back then, he was not recognized at first. He was the host of the fighting arena in Shining Wilderness, "Hao Zui Zui Zhong De".

"It's you." Li Ang said to him.

"A heroic leader who fought against demons. Unfortunately, the guild won't let us reveal the situation, so I can't spread your story."

Huo Zui Mou De bowed and said with a smile, "Wouldn't you like me to sit down for a moment?"

"sit down."

Ermei looked at the man curiously. He was used to big scenes and smiled at the two of them calmly. "Hello, Captain Xinghua has recruited a new pair of sisters. It's really progressing rapidly."

"This... well, let's just leave it like this."

Li Ang didn't intend to explain further. He extended his hand to ask them not to say anything in front of outsiders and asked, "Why are you here?"

Reed spread his hands and gestured to the crowd around him: "Is this even a question?"

"Haven't you seen enough of the authentic racing before? Why are you coming here to try your luck?" said Andasu.

"Ha," Hunchback slapped his thigh, "Of course Platinum Ace looks down on those weaklings. So do I! But people have to eat, after all."

The man talked about his situation after he and the Star Flower Troupe left.

Leon didn't expect that he was from the island country of Makena and was also a reporter. He felt that the Flashing Field had the primitive beauty of the Sabrum airspace and thought there might be big news, so he went to investigate. However, he didn't know that the kings didn't want to be inquired about. He didn't run fast enough and fell into the sand nest.

After a series of untold experiences, he was noticed by King Platinum because of his eloquence and was thrown into the arena as a host on an island where the entire population was illiterate.

He worked like this until recently, when King Platinum fell and the guild reorganized the Shining Fields, and he became unemployed. Of course, he couldn't go back to the newspaper he worked at. When he went to Makena to inquire, he found out that the newspaper had already closed down. It was because it liked to let reporters go to dangerous areas that it was brought down by the angry families of the reporters.

Fortunately, King Platinum had left him some benefits over the years, and with the bribes from those who needed him to speak well of them, he had no worries about food and drink, but he just couldn't rest, so he wandered around.

"Well, I heard there was an airship race going on here, so I came to check it out."

Huo Zui De finished his words with a smile, then suddenly turned angry and slammed the table. Seeing Andasu frown, he quickly smiled and said, "Don't be offended, Platinum Ace, I'm really angry. But okay, although the racing here is amateur, the participants are enthusiasts and do know a little about Platinum Racing. That host is awesome, he actually plagiarized my name!"

Li Ang then remembered that the host wearing the Soul Peak cloak did call himself "Reard". Was it taken from here?

"What do you mean?" Reed tilted his head and said to Andasu, "Should Platinum Ace go and teach them a lesson?"

Andasu moved her lips and looked at Li Ang again: "Master, make the decision."

Li Ang could see that Bai Lang wanted to compete.

During the Platinum Race, he personally rode with her and saw an Ann who was different from other times. At that time, she was fierce and wild, and definitely lived up to the name of White Wolf.

Perhaps that was her true self beneath her usual calmness and composure.

"This matter—"

Li Ang had just opened his mouth when the power suddenly went out in the entire restaurant and the hall was suddenly shrouded in darkness.

The people around cried out in surprise, and there was a sound of breaking dishes. The diners who had originally thought that it was just a power outage were suddenly startled and started clamoring in the darkness.

"Someone is deliberately causing trouble."

Based on his experience, Li Ang judged that the commotion was not simple and reminded those around him to be careful.

A dark shadow rose in front of him, and a voice that was somewhat strange yet somewhat familiar came from it.

"Leon, Farina, follow me."

292. Core Tunnel

"Xiao Mo?" Farina responded.

Her voice made Leon sure that the person coming was indeed his friend Duncan Morales, whom he had not seen for many years, although he had already released his magical perception to use a truly useful identification method.

"Let's go first," Morales said.

Leon felt a veil of shadow envelop him. This was Xiao Mo's shadow manipulation ability, and it was much stronger than before. It felt like being covered by a veil, and the original world was now blurred.

Everyone walked out of the restaurant. Xiao Mo's blurry figure led the way in front. Only his beast-eared back and brown tail, which were used for heat dissipation, could be seen clearly. He walked in the shadows cast by the houses, looking vague and ethereal, as if he did not really exist, but just an illusion caused by dizziness.

With skills like these, it would be extremely difficult for the Empire to catch him.

He led Leon and others around the metal-structured houses and alley corners of the Rudder City, turned the handle at a place similar to a pipe gate, and a secret door quickly opened on the wall next to it under the mechanical operation. He hooked his hand to signal and entered first.

The structure inside the passage was somewhat like a ventilation duct. Xiao Mo led the way with a lantern. After walking a little further, they found a staircase going down. After walking up dozens of steps, the road turned into a metal platform.

Although it was extremely dark all around, everyone could feel from the wind that this was a wide space.

And from the steps walking down from here, it can be seen that this is clearly the interior of the island of the Ship Rudder City.

"here it is?"
