Chapter 13 Pursuit
The sky was already somewhat cloudy, and the fall of the bell tower attracted a large number of soldiers of the republic. They quickly surrounded the ruins.
"Hey, what's going on here!" Haruka was the first to arrive at the scene.
"Kuro-no-kenhime-sama, there seems to be a fierce battle here, and since it's night, we don't know exactly who fought here. β
"The magic I felt before ... It should be right here. He crossed the soldier's blockade and landed lightly among the rubble, the ruins seemingly crushing a man as the perceptual magic unfolded.
"Wind powerβ" As he cast his spell, a sudden gust of wind blew away the rubble around him, a faint glow beneath the wreckage of a massive building. Yao raised his sword and swung out his sword qi, and the wreckage was instantly cut in two, collapsing and sliding to the sides, revealing a white wing, while Yimu was hiding under the wing, looking fine.
"Teacher Yimu, are you alright?" Haruka stepped forward and grabbed her, only to see the white wings instantly collapse into countless shiny white feathers, and then dissipate in the wind.
"I'm fine, but let that guy run away. Im's face didn't look good, and maintaining angelization would put a huge burden on her body, and it could be seen that she was very tired.
"Who is that guy?"
"The people of the Adventurers' Union. β
"Adventurer, why would you fight that guy?"
Yimu put his head to Haruka's ear, "This guy is now suspected of being President Cronin's murderer, do you understand?"
"This... β
"He shouldn't have gone far yet, you should be able to catch up and kill him, right?" Yimu squeezed Haruka's hand tightly.
"Kill? β
"Someone has to take responsibility for killing the president, and if it's found out that you did it, you should understand the consequences without me telling you, right?"
Haruka nodded silently.
"The other party's name is Calant, and he has a special skill that can forcibly steal other people's magic, so try not to use magic if you can, and with your ability, you can kill him even without magic, right?"
"Understood. He turned and picked up the weak Im and sent her to the soldiers.
"Teacher Yimu, please take care of you, I'll go track down the prisoner. With that, he unleashed his flying magic and leaped into the air, quickly capturing a target moving at high speed as the wide-area perception magic unfolded.
"Where are you!" Haruka shook off his arm, and the pitch-black Yaqi Orochi armor instantly pierced his body, and after he took a deep breath, he disappeared in the air.
"The Dark Knights of the Temple... I didn't expect such a tricky guy to be here. Callant muttered to himself unconsciously, shuttling between buildings through stealth magic. This time I came to Argos City, and I was appointed by the president of the trade union, in order to find out the news of the meeting between the Chamber of Commerce and the king of Altinia, but I didn't expect the temple to be involved, and it was also involved in the killing of President Cronin, what kind of entanglement is there between these three forces? Thinking of this, he couldn't help but shake his head, the information he has now is too little, and he can't draw any conclusions at all, so it's better to leave here first and make another plan.
"I'm catching up with you!" a voice suddenly appeared beside him. Obviously he was in a state of stealth, why would there be someone!? He was stunned when he suddenly felt a killing intent from ahead.
"Bang-" The sneaking wall was suddenly blasted open by magic, and a large hole was opened in the thick wall.
"What people ... Karant jumped up the wall, and under the dark sky, a girl in pitch-black armor could be seen pointing a sword at her.
Haruka didn't mean to talk to the other party, afraid that he would be soft-hearted and unable to kill the killer, so from the beginning he planned to kill the other party with all his might.
"Aren't you going to give your name?" Seeing that Haruka ignored him, Calante drew a silver whip from behind him, and the moment the whip was thrown out, Haruka was already gone.
"What?!" Callante was completely unaware of what was happening, and felt a huge force hit him in the abdomen, and the whole person flew out, slamming into the building behind him, smashing a circular depression into the wall.
"Plunder!!" Seeing that he couldn't keep up with the other party's speed at all, he supported his body and quickly activated his skills, and three skills instantly refreshed in his mind, super recovery - five senses super strengthened - Sword Master.
"Tsk-tsk, is this considered a lottery?" Under the effect of super recovery, the pain in the body gradually disappeared, and the wound began to heal quickly.
Haruka, on the other hand, stopped not far away, apparently his three skills were taken away by the other party.
"It's a really powerful passive skill, and it has been active even if you don't release it. Calante slowly stood up.
"Can you plunder skills that you don't actively release? Haruka looked at each other.
"Looks like you already know what I'm capable of, did the female Templar tell you about it?"
βγγγγγγ β
"Looks like you've got it. Callant threw the whip in his hand to the ground, and in an instant the whip seemed to dissolve into a long sword. "I didn't expect you to have such three powerful skills, let me try the power of the Juggernaut. He waved the sword in his hand and rushed towards Haruka.
"Bang-" After losing the enhancement of his five senses, Haruka could barely keep up with the opponent's movements, and with the blessing of the Sword Saint, Haruka couldn't stop the opponent's attack at all, and was forced to retreat again and again, if it weren't for the Yaqi Snake to offset most of the damage, Haruka would hardly be able to hold on for even a second.
"Damn... I'm really going to die if I go on like this... Haruka didn't seem to have any more options, but at this moment, something incredible happened, and the skill of the Sword Master appeared again in his mind......
