NIKKE, Swordmaster Ark Succubus Daily

But unexpectedly, Niki suddenly rushed towards her and punched her in the face.

EH leaned back and barely dodged the punch, the force of which stung her face. She quickly retreated, maintaining a safe distance.

"..."

EH never expected that the other party would try to double-cross them.

When Li Zuo saw that the other side was fighting amongst themselves, he wondered if he could escape, but when he saw that Number 5 next to him was still facing him without moving, he had no choice but to give up.

"As expected, all Nikis are lowly..." Hannah drew her pistol from her waist, smoothly cocked it, and fired at the Niki. However, the bullet bounced off the Niki without leaving a trace.

"How is this possible? This is the special pistol used to execute Niki." Hannah couldn't believe that a mass-produced Niki could have such powerful performance.

She fired several more shots, but the result was the same as before.

“What you’re doing is breaking the rules,” EH said to Niki, number 3.

“Because you stole the goods,” Nicky #3 replied, “so I chose the backup plan: to steal your money too.”

"Me?" EH laughed in exasperation. "If I stole your goods, why would I even come here?"

Number 3 lowered his head and thought for a moment before replying, "Because we agreed to meet here."

After hearing what Number 3 said, Li Zuoyi couldn't help but exclaim: "Are you really a genius?"

Just then, he noticed that someone else had entered the bar, and a girl with a sweet smile stood behind EH.

Hannah scoffed and complained, "Viper, you're too slow!"

"Sorry~ I had to get a new arm, which took a little longer." Viper smiled even more broadly at the mass-produced Niki models and said, "Something interesting seems to have happened."

Number 3 replied nonchalantly, "None of your business."

EH didn't want to know about their affairs and said, "Why do you think I stole the goods? What evidence do you have?"

Number 3 raised his arm and pointed to the snake behind EH, saying, "Because she stole the goods."

EH turned to look at the viper and said, "It's you?"

"I ran into them on the way and just helped them carry their heavy bags," Viper said with a smile. "But I had something to do and was in a hurry to leave, so I forgot to return them."

"Where's the goods?"

"It's still with me~"

EH sighed helplessly, turned around and handed the black card to Number 3, "Now that the goods have been received, here's the money."

Number 3, holding the black card, checked the amount of credits on it and said to Numbers 4 and 5:

"Transaction complete, let's go back."

Li Zuoyi realized something was wrong. If they were to keep up with their speed, it probably wouldn't take them long to get out of the outer area.

Even if Anik could help locate them, the reinforcements wouldn't be able to catch up.

"Could you leave that man here before you go?"

The smile on Viper's face froze when she saw that Krau had actually appeared directly through the gate, instead of proceeding with the original plan to capture EH.

Although she really wanted to ask why, her relationship with Krau hadn't been made public yet, so it was better not to reveal it casually for the time being.

"..." EH was surprised to see her again. "Were you turned into Niki?"

"Hmm." Krau's expression was indifferent, showing no concern for the fact that he had died in the past.

When asked by Krau, number 3 simply replied, "No."

Li Zuoyi was surprised to find that the only person who came to his rescue was Niki, dressed as a rebellious young girl, who seemed quite unprofessional.

"I understand." Krau put his hands in the pockets of his black jacket with its shoulders drooping and said to Li Zuoyi, "The opponent is too strong. I'm just an ordinary Niki with no special abilities. I can't save you."

Li Zuoyi sighed, "Then what are you doing out here...?"

"Give my boss an explanation for giving that last-minute order to cut in line."

Krau didn't want to do it, but she received an order from Shuen at the last minute, so she had no choice but to come out and pretend.

"Hehehe, what an annoying boss..." Li Zuo's lips twitched as he watched Number 5 walk towards him, but there was nothing he could do.

His reaction surprised Krau; she had expected this human to berate her for sacrificing herself to save him.

'Boom! '

The ceiling shattered, and a figure descended from the sky, landing between Li Zuoyi and Number 5.

Li Zuoyi recognized the figure in the smoke and dust: "Peony!"

"Brother, I'm here to save you."

Peony spread her arms, blocking the young man, and said to Number 5, "This time, I won't let you take him away."

Chapter 41 This is the power of love

The abandoned bar has become ruins.

“Sakura, be careful not to let number 4 get close, she seems to be good at throwing techniques…” Li Zuoyi turned to the other side and said, “Rosanna, watch out for number 3’s punches, try to disrupt her offensive rhythm as much as possible, don’t let her lead you around…”

He then added, "Peony, watch out for number 5's waist twisting, especially her high kicks..."

Li Zuoyi is helping them analyze their respective opponents, hoping to make up for the gap in physical performance.

Just after Peony blocked his way, Sakura and Rosanna arrived, and the battle horn immediately sounded.

The others, however, left immediately when they sensed something was wrong.

But in a dark corner not far away, Kura exclaimed in admiration, "That man is quite capable. The way he commands Niki so skillfully, could he be the commander?"

"Isn't Kula going to participate?" The jackal stood beside Kula, watching their battle with a hint of eagerness.

"No, I'd be torn to pieces the moment I went into that kind of battle. You're not allowed to go either."

"I understand!" The jackal nodded obediently.

However, even though the man informed each of the mass-produced Nikis about their fighting habits and potential weaknesses, Sakura and Rosanna were still completely suppressed by Number 3 and Number 4.

The performance gap is so large it's despairing.

Krau was a little curious about which Niki these mass-produced replicas were copied from.

Only the peony, at best, looks reasonably 50/50.

But after watching for a while, Kula felt something was wrong.

"That woman named Peony is acting strangely; she's gradually being able to keep up with the opponent's movements..." she said疑惑地, "Why does it seem like she's getting stronger as the fight goes on?"

'Boom! '

Sakura's physical damage was eventually too severe, and she could no longer move with the agility she once had.

Seizing the moment when her steps faltered, Number 4 pushed off with his foot and accelerated towards her.

Oh no, at this distance... Sakura tried to back away, but was still pulled closer.

Number 4 wrapped his arms around her waist, quickly moved behind her, and slammed her into the rubble with a German back throw.

“Cherry blossoms!” Rosanna exclaimed.

"Don't get distracted!" Li Zuoyi shouted.

However, Rosanna was still accidentally hit in the head by a straight punch from number 3, lost her balance, and fell down.

Although she managed to stand up, she quickly fell down again; she was no longer able to fight.

Number 3 and Number 4 finished off their respective opponents and walked towards Peony, who was fighting Number 5.

The situation couldn't get any worse... Li Zuoyi knew that if Number 3 and Number 4 joined the battle, Peony would definitely die.

at this time.

"I surrender! I'll go with you!" Li Zuoyi raised his hands and walked towards Mudan and Number 5. "Stop fighting."

"No!" Peony gave up on arguing with Number 5, stepped back to the young man's side, and blocked his way.

The mass-produced Nikis also stood still and did not pursue.

After all, he had already said he was surrendering.

Li Zuo glanced at the cherry blossoms that had been smashed into the floor and Rosanna who was still struggling to get up, then fixed his gaze on Peony's battered face and said:

"If you keep fighting, you might die."

"but……"

"Didn't I already say that?" Li Zuoyi walked past her and headed towards number 5, saying, "Don't force yourself to take on responsibilities that aren't yours."

However, she still tugged at the hem of his clothes.

"peony……"

Li Zuoyi tried to persuade her, but she suddenly said, "I like you."

"what?"

"I love you!" Peony shouted, closing her eyes and venting her emotions, "I love you ——————!!!!"

Krau, who was in the corner, opened his eyes wide and then sneered.

Love between a human and Niki? Ha, what a joke.

How could a human possibly fall in love with Niki?

Krau couldn't wait to see Peony be abandoned by that man.

"so!"

Peony pulled Li Zuoyi back, opened her eyes, looked into his eyes, a blush rising on her cheeks, and said:

"It is my responsibility to protect the people I love! This is my responsibility!"

It's not about forcibly taking on responsibility!

Although Li Zuoyi really wanted to say that they had only known each other for a day, and that it would take at least two more days... his attention was focused on Mudan's scarlet eyes.

Those eyes were like Marian's eyes, which had been corrupted.

Even the peonies have been eroded?

How is this going? !

"After I felt it, I felt like I had regained my strength!" Peony said with a smile, "Let me protect you."

Facing the three mass-produced Nikis, she pulled the stunned man behind her:

"I will not hand him over to you."

Number 5 came to his senses: "They clearly said they were surrendering, how despicable."

Li Zuoyi quickly said, "Be careful, Peony."

At this moment, number 5 had already raised his leg to kick at Mudan. Based on the data from the previous battle, Mudan should have a hard time defending against it.

but……

Peony effortlessly grabbed number 5's ankle, so easily that even she was surprised.

Without overthinking the reasons, she immediately accepted herself as she was now, thinking, "It seems I really have become stronger."

Peony exerted force, and the seemingly indestructible size 5 ankle shattered, making a crisp sound like crushing a paper-shelled walnut.

Seeing this, Number 3 and Number 4 immediately went to provide assistance.

Releasing her shattered ankles, Peony dodged the attack that seemed as slow as a snail to her, and directly grabbed their heads, forcing them to slam their foreheads together.

'Bang--!!!!'

The violent impact caused Number 3 and Number 4 to go limp and pass out.

Number 5, who was still conscious on the ground, crawled away, but was grabbed by the hair by Peony, who was squatting down, and shoved into the floor tiles, whereupon she also fainted.

"Brother... I, I did it?" Peony looked at her hands, feeling incredulous.

Li Zuoyi immediately cupped her face in his hands, staring into her eyes, "Are you alright?"

"I'm fine, don't worry." Peony didn't expect him to care about her so much.

Li Zuoyi saw that the crimson in her eyes was fading and the color of her pupils was gradually returning to normal.
