Chapter 121: Let's Go Wild and Kill!"
Lines of words appear in front of Loria's eyes.
[Special Event - Hidden Leader]
[With the sunlight shining, everything becomes visible. When facing threats from hidden places, the best solution is to drag them out and expose them under the scorching sun!]
[The mission has been completed, rewards generated:]
One, Healing Through Breathing.
Two, Coagulated Blood Blade.
Third, Skill Advancement Card.
Four, 5-point freely assignable attribute points.
Like the previous two special events, this event also has four rewards.
But as soon as she saw the first reward, Loria's eyes lit up uncontrollably.
Healing Through Breathing, in the games she had played before crossing over, this was an amazing skill!
After carefully reading the skill description, she realized that the situation was not much different from what she had imagined.
[Healing Through Breathing]: With the mysterious blessing, you have obtained a special ability that surpasses humans. After being out of combat for 1 minute, your health will continuously recover at a rate of 1% every 5 seconds, until it reaches 100%. Being attacked or actively initiating an attack on others will interrupt the effect of the skill.
"Wow!"
Loria was delighted.
This skill has a lot of requirements and it's not effective in intense battles, but it's still an amazing technique.
With this skill, unless she suffers a severe injury that cannot be healed in battle, she can fully recover in just a few minutes of rest.
The strength of this effect is self-evident, and it is especially attractive to Loria -
From now on, she doesn't have to give money to the hospital anymore!
"Wow!"
Miss Gold-loving Knight's eyes were filled with glimpses of gold coins.
Actually, this skill can still be used in battle to some extent.
As long as her teammates can buy her enough resting time, she can come back and beat the enemies after fully recovering!
"Let me see, this skill can still be upgraded. Aren't there skill advancement cards for this? Ah, wait... Upgrading Healing Through Breathing requires three skill advancement cards. Well, forget it."
Loria felt a little sad.
What a pity.
Since that's the case, she had to use the skill advancement card somewhere else for now.
After all, she was about to participate in a secret assassination mission, and she needed to enhance her abilities in all aspects before the mission started.
After looking around, Loria raised Kitty's Pace to level 2.
As a result, the original 10-meter displacement distance increased to 20 meters, and the cooldown time shortened from 3 seconds to 2 seconds. This was definitely a significant improvement for her, who had low agility.
When facing Sylph, if she could instantly teleport 20 meters, there was no need to push herself to the limit and use a huge jet stream to knock Sylph over.
"Just flash past her and stab her in the stomach with a sword."
Loria proudly looked at the second reward.
"Coagulated Blood Blade": The knight gathers the magical energy floating in the air, swirling it into a half-moon arc of light, capable of attacking targets up to thirty meters away.
"It's actually a long-range attack skill!"
With the upgraded Kitty's Pace, this greatly compensates for her weakness in hitting targets from a distance.
"And I also have an enchanted ring that can enchant the great sword with fire, so when I swing it, it creates a fiery arc!"
Not only is it impressive, but its destructive power is also extraordinary.
"Hiss--"
Loria couldn't help but draw in a breath of cool air.
While dealing with the people in Creek Town and the Hidden Leader, as long as she maximizes all the bonuses, she barely possesses the strength comparable to a C-class adventurer.
With this big improvement, she can proudly say that she is no longer below an ordinary C-class adventurer.
"Very well, proprietor or the sudden arrival of a strange woman, prepare to face my mighty sword!"
Loria allocated 5 points of freedom attributes, with 2 points in strength and 3 points in stamina, resulting in a D-level base strength.
As for agility, since Kitty's Pace leveled up, she wasn't in a hurry to increase it for now.
After closing the simulator, Loria headed straight to the inn.
There are still 2 hours until the action, it's time to prepare.
Loria didn't have a complicated plan to deal with the strange woman; her idea was to invite Doris to join her.
"Praying mantis catches the cicada, but unaware of the oriole behind. You think you have caught me, but in fact, I have surrounded you!"
The plan was perfect, but Loria encountered trouble in the first step.
Doris wasn't very willing to go out in the rain with her, so in the end, Loria could only entice Doris with the Magic Crystal Mine.
"When the time comes, you stay outside, and if you see anyone sneaky coming to attack me, you surprise attack them from behind!"
"Hmm, yes, yes."
Doris nodded repeatedly.
She didn't like fighting, but for the promise of food from Loria, she was going to give it her all today!
Very good.
After finishing the most important step, Loria's job was to send Miss Plump Sheep to protect Luciene.
This time she didn't encounter any troubles.
The thought of being involved in a big case made Miss Plump Sheep even more eager than Loria, who was leading everything.
She proudly swung her little feet, wrapped in cool sandals.
"Don't worry, I'll make sure nothing happens to Lady Luciene!"
Luciene also showed great cooperation.
She even said she didn't need protection. Given the proprietor's temperament, if her actions were discovered, she would have been badly beaten by the proprietor. It would be better for Miss Plump Sheep to accompany Loria, as it would increase their chances of success.
Loria firmly refused.
Miss Plump Sheep is a fixed turret type of magician and not suitable for carrying out covert assassination missions.
If she were to go, a magic attack might not be able to kill those sadistic perverts, but the already fragile "slaves" would certainly suffer.
"Just leave everything to me!"
Loria couldn't wait to test out her new abilities.
After leaving Luciene's house, she put on a tight red catgirl outfit and then wore a raincoat on the outside.
At six in the evening, Loria found the proprietor who was getting ready to attend the dinner.
She followed him closely, just like the simulator had said, and noticed that the proprietor was not very alert.
Because he had revealed the existence of the extreme "terrorist organization" called the Hidden Leader, he had become a celebrity not only in the entire Province of Claren but there were also rumors that some high-ranking officials from the empire were planning to meet him and thank him for reporting the truth.
"Oh, Proprietor Perry, you're really going to make a big leap this time. And when that happens, please don't forget about us, your old friends."
"Make a big leap? What's all that about? It's just something I, as a journalist, should do."
Proprietor Perry, holding a glass of wine, spoke with polite words, but his face couldn't hide the look of pride and satisfaction.
He couldn't wait to reach for the stars right now.
However, even if the official acted quickly, it would still take several days to reach the Province of Claren.
After leaving the banquet, the happy and contented Proprietor Perry went directly to the entrance of a private club called the "Red Wine Tasting Club."
"Invitation letter."
"Here you go."
After checking it carefully, the servant standing at the door let him in.
Near midnight, there was only a dim oil lamp standing at the entrance of the club in the alley.
The light spilled onto the smooth road. Due to the light rain falling from the sky, the rainwater reflected the light, revealing a indescribable brilliance in the calmness.
"Tasting red wine?"
Loria stopped at the door.
She stared at the beautifully carved and elegant sign for a while.
Who would have thought that it concealed such nauseating evil?
"Excuse me, this is a private club. If you don't have an invitation, please leave as soon as possible."
The doorman took a step forward.
He was about 1.9 meters tall, and his muscles stretched his clothes, standing in front of the petite Loria like a little mountain.
However...
Just like that.
"Only 27 points of strength."
Loria muttered.
"Hmm?"
In the moment the doorman was stunned, Loria gently pushed him away, then kicked the door, knocking it off the hinges with a bang, smashing it against the wall behind.
Suddenly, a few sharp cries came from inside.
Loria could tell that it was a woman's scream.
It seems like this is the place.
"Miss, your actions have seriously offended..."
The gatekeeper angrily rushed forward, trying to pin Loria to the ground.
Just as he was about to reach Loria, she suddenly turned around.
The lady knight magically produced a sharp knight's dagger in her hand. With a powerful swing, and the agility bonus of 53, the gatekeeper barely saw what happened.
He only felt a gentle push, and his whole body came to a complete stop.
Wait, something's not right.
Now is not the time to stop.
We must quickly stop this strange girl, otherwise if what's happening inside is exposed, he'll be in big trouble.
The guard lifted his right hand, and heard Loria say as she turned around, "You're an accomplice too, so I don't need to be polite to you."
Accomplice?
"You give me... I... gulp gulp gulp..."
Halfway through speaking, the guard suddenly grabbed his own throat with both hands.
But even so, his head still couldn't be controlled and it slid down uncontrollably until it fell to the ground with a thud.
Splash!
Blood splattered, and the remaining body fell in the rainwater.
Loria couldn't see this scene anymore, she walked into the club with a sword.
Maybe because the cries in the club were too loud, the guests who came to play were all immersed in cruelty. It wasn't until she stood in the middle of the living room for a few seconds that someone finally realized something was wrong.
"Who are you?"
There were women in the wine tasting club.
However, none of the women here had a complete body, and they were either naked or wearing extremely provocative and revealing clothes.
And this woman who suddenly appeared not only had a intact body, but also wore a thick raincoat. As soon as she took off her hood, the dripping water formed a small puddle on the ground.
"One, two, three..."
Loria counted without paying attention to anyone else.
According to the simulator, there should be 31 victims here.
Actually, even using the word "victims" is not enough to describe the miserable experiences of these "slaves".
They were already suffering in the training base, and even after being sent here to serve guests, they still can't get any kindness.
With just one glance, Loria saw several "slaves" tied up with ropes, dripping with red wax, and some sensitive parts either being clamped or pierced with needles.
Further away, several "slaves" were suspended, enduring tortures such as whip lashes, riding wooden donkeys, and being roasted by fire.
Twisted pain and blood blossoming like flowers revealed their animalistic nature without hiding anything.
The more the "slaves" showed pain, the more excited the people in the club were.
It seemed they gained some sort of satisfaction?
As he counted, the person who had just been swearing pulled out a sword and angrily walked towards Loria.
"I see you're getting tired of living. Since you've seen everything, don't blame me for being rude!"
Tormenting one person is tormenting, tormenting one more person is still tormenting.
He raised the sword, and suddenly came a shout of anger.
"Go away, don't bother me."
Along with the shout came a fist that was almost like a phantom.
Bang!
The person holding the sword flew backwards like a bullet, directly denting the thick wall.
Everyone looked closely and saw that his chest had a hole, it seemed impossible for him to survive.
"Someone's been killed!"
It's unclear who shouted first, but most of the customers scattered and ran away. Some came running out of a room with their pants pulled up, still carrying a branding iron around their waist. However, a few people angrily charged towards Loria.
The messy situation made Loria have to stop counting.
Oh well.
Let's take care of these people first before considering other things.
She put away the knight's short sword and replaced it with a much taller sword than her.
With one swing, the two people standing in front of her were cut into two pieces, blood splattering the ceiling and floor, and the strong smell of blood made a customer vomit directly.
"Vomit? How can you still vomit? Why didn't you vomit when you saw their terrible condition earlier?"
Loria grabbed his neck and lifted him up.
"I, I, I..."
The person was so scared that he couldn't even say a complete sentence.
In a fit of anger, Loria threw herself down and shattered his head.
The extremely violent scene of slaughter was unheard of by everyone present.
They used to torment people slowly with tools, unlike Loria who either cut their bodies in half or smashed their heads.
Several customers rushed to the door, only to see a flash of red in the room before they could celebrate their lucky escape.
There was no alley outside the gate, only a flaming sword.
Boom!
Flames surged wildly, and with one swing of the sword, the walls were turned into powder, while several customers hit by the sword were burned to charcoal.
"You... demon, you're a demon!"
Loria walked expressionlessly towards a customer who had fallen to the ground.
The customer kept moving back and went straight towards a badly chopped body.
He accidentally touched the broken intestines and before he could feel disgusted, Loria cut off his leg with a sword.
"Ah-ah!"
The screams were deafening.
After the sound of shrieks, Proprietor Perry, who was huddled in a corner against the wall, began shouting wildly.
"Don't kill me, don't kill me! I can give you anything you want, just please don't kill me."
The rest of the people followed suit, begging for mercy one after another.
Loria's face was surprisingly calm.
She noticed that the faces of those slaves were even calmer than hers, showing no joy because someone came to save them.
This is clearly numb, isn't it?
After all, they didn't even feel afraid.
Loria walked briskly up to Proprietor Perry, grabbed his collar, and exclaimed angrily, "It seems like you're itching to go to heaven?"
"No, I won't go to heaven. I just want to stay alive!"
Proprietor Perry's body kept twitching.
He had also trained before, and it was because of his training that he knew how terrifying Loria, who could smash someone's head in an instant, was.
Loria suddenly asked, "Do you remember how many people you have abused?"
"Um..."
Proprietor Perry's face revealed a hesitant expression.
"It seems like there's been too many of them, so much so that right now, you can't even remember how many crimes you've committed." Loria smirked mockingly, "So I have no need to show any mercy."
She raised the big sword with her right hand alone.
Proprietor Perry immediately started struggling frantically, "No, no, don't kill me. If you want money, I have plenty of it. If you want women, I can even give you my wife. You want... *gasp*..."
His body suddenly stiffened.
Loria swung her sword, shooting a half-moon arc of flame, directly turning one of the customers in the corner into ashes.
"Ah, ah, ah!"
This wasn't a cry of anguish, it was a death knell.
Next.
Loria swung her sword again, this time severing the arms of a person who was holding a nail and hammer.
Right after that, he was directly stabbed by the needles sprinkled by Loria and turned into a hedgehog, not even sparing his eyes.
Proprietor Perry's mouth suddenly opened wide and could no longer shut. He could clearly hear a scary honking sound coming from inside, as if something was blocking his throat.
The next one.
The next one again.
Loria, right before the eyes of Proprietor Perry, ruthlessly hacked down each and every customer around.
The flowing blood covered Proprietor Perry's shoes. Faced with the unusual and scorching attack, his legs were trapped in relentless cramps. As the cramps continued, it seemed like even his eyes began to twitch.
"Help... g-g-g..."
"No one will come to save you. Enjoy the feeling of slowly approaching despair."
Loria noticed that Proprietor Perry's pants had become wet. She sneered.
Can't handle it at this level?
When she killed the ninth customer, several customers who knew they were doomed stood up and decided to fight to the death.
But before they could rush to Loria's side, they were all abruptly intercepted and severed at the waist by the soaring Coagulated Blood Blades.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh--
Blood splattered all over Proprietor Perry's face, making his already twisted visage look much more terrifying than a carefully made-up horror mask.
When Loria turned her head to look at him again, she realized that he had died of fright. His eyes bulged out, as if someone had forcefully squeezed them, and his mouth was wide open, twisted enough to fit an egg in.
"Useless waste."
Loria threw the body into a pile of rotting meat.
Most of the people from the Church of the Goddess of Madness and Indulgence liked perverse play only because they had been brainwashed. However, these people were clearly not brainwashed, yet their level of perversion was no less than that of the Church of the Goddess of Madness and Indulgence's followers.
Loria raised her sword and killed all the remaining customers.
After finishing everything, she didn't hurry to gather information, but walked past the numb "slaves" and went to the door.
Calculating the time, the unfamiliar woman should be coming.
Sure enough, she only waited for a few minutes before she saw an unfamiliar woman approaching from a distance.
"You?"
The unfamiliar woman hesitated for a moment, then took out a weapon.
But this time, she encountered trouble that she was unable to defeat Loria, who had defeated her in the simulator and managed to escape.
Without hesitation, Loria closed the distance in ten meters with a Kitty's Pace, and then slammed her sword on top of the unfamiliar woman's head.
Immediately after, as she was engaged in combat with the unfamiliar woman, Doris, who had been lying in ambush behind, suddenly jumped out. She didn't throw a punch, but directly rammed into the unfamiliar woman's waist.
Caught in intense pain in her waist, the unfamiliar woman couldn't dodge Loria's Coagulated Blood Blade, and was instantly split in half, unable to close her eyes in death.
"Don't worry, I will soon have the Treasury Secretary come and keep you company."
Loria kicked the body of the unfamiliar woman away with one foot, spat twice, and then left.
It's time to go search for the criminal records of these people.
