Chapter 187: Golden Little Power
...Sure enough, soul summoning was possible on the land near the Golden Tree.
...I summon myself, with no additional fee.
...Even if it was a bit forced, the Golden Tree could serve as a medium and a bridge for transit.
【Countdown: 30 seconds】
Unfortunately, time couldn't last long.
In the state of the spirit's incarnation, Bai Wei's power at this moment was not complete, only about three percent of its peak.
It's enough.
Bai Wei walked out of the summoning formation radiating golden light and snapped his fingers.
Michelle knelt on the ground, struggling to raise her head and look at the young figure at the center of the formation.
"Devil... sir?" she whispered, seemingly confirming his identity.
The figure had its back turned to her, dressed in a pure white suit with a cape embroidered with golden patterns of the Golden Tree on its shoulders. The silhouette looked like a noble and elegant aristocrat, with an unattainable air of nobility that made it difficult to look at directly.
As he took a step forward, golden light scattered, like tangible gold, gradually illuminating and covering the ground.
Golden brilliance, this monotonously bright color, after being piled up in large quantities should have seemed gaudy and unbearable.
But it wasn't the main focus, the golden color served as support, like stars surrounding the moon, enhancing the noble presence of the figure walking in the center of the golden light.
Chicken Snake, getting closer, the beast with increasingly red eyes seemed to be instinctively affected, perceiving its inevitable death under the gaze of the golden double pupils. The creature's natural instinct of fear instantly turned this advanced beast into a helpless rabbit waiting to be slaughtered.
But in the next moment, it suddenly erupted and sprayed out gray venom, desperately rushing towards them.
It wasn't because it overcame the instinctive fear, but rather it was completely driven insane by this fear, launching indiscriminate attacks on its surroundings.
Then its newly grown mouth was pierced, a sword thrusting down from above, piercing its throat. The sprayed venom was forced back like a bursting firearm, causing gray mist to pour out from Chicken Snake's eyes and nostrils.
Golden spears materialized in mid-air, dozens of golden blades piercing through Chicken Snake's body instantaneously. Finally, a spear pierced through its head, forcing its mouth shut and embedding it into the ground.
Chicken Snake was pierced like a sieve, but each golden spear and golden sword avoided the venom sac inside its body. Otherwise, if the venom leaked out, the area within tens of meters would be enveloped in a deadly poison ring.
With a flick of his finger, Bai Wei killed the Chicken Snake, barely lifting a hand.
Michelle's expression went blank. She first trembled, wondering what kind of terrifying creature she had summoned. Then, she became excited, realizing that she seemed to be witnessing a glimpse of legendary history. Finally, she relaxed because they had all been saved.
Seeing the gruesome death of the Chicken Snake, the cunning Chimera attempted to escape, but it was in vain.
Bai Wei clenched his fist, and golden chains coiled around and bound the Chimera, sending the monster to the guillotine.
One of the abilities of Golden Power is the free transformation of matter, and the weapons created by this power are as formidable as those wielded by ordinary heroic spirits.
The Infinite Armament is the first stage of Golden Power, although it is not yet complete. It is also known as Golden Little Power or Golden Power Lite.
Bai Wei can unleash the dazzling golden battle technique without any need for calculation or energy consumption. He can even learn from the techniques used by Witcher Abel to create various types of torture devices, executing his opponents with elaborate finishing moves.
The guillotine and the Iron Maiden are two execution methods that Bai Wei particularly favors. In fact, there is another method called hanging by the neck, commonly known as "hanging from street lamps." However, because many people have strong necks that cannot be easily broken, it is regrettable that the method had to be changed to methods like the wheel torture or being torn apart by five horses.
Cruelty is considered a necessary virtue for an emperor.
The title of "tyrant" was not without reason. To use evil to control evil meant gradually losing one's humanity.
Snap!
The blade of the guillotine fell, and the monster's head dropped, spraying a large amount of fresh blood. The blood stained the ground crimson, and the head slid to Bai Wei's feet.
He lowered his head and noticed that the Chimaera's irises were also crimson.
He dug out an eyeball the size of a fist, carefully examined it in his hand for a moment, and then casually tucked it into his sleeve.
[Countdown: Fifteen seconds]
There were fifteen seconds left, and the two advanced monsters had already been killed. Only trivial matters remained.
Bai Wei walked up to the icy cocoon and tapped it with his finger. The thick, shattered ice layer crumbled instantly.
The girl suspended in mid-air fell down as the ice shattered. She lost her support, resembling a wingless bird, falling into Bai Wei's arms. Her dark red hair draped over his arm. The frail and sickly woman frowned, struggling to breathe.
Alena had expended a considerable amount of magic power, and her blood loss was significant. Even as a Blooded, it would take her a while to recover from anemia.
Her mind was in a chaotic state. She opened her eyes with great difficulty, and the light illuminated her vision.
She sluggishly felt the support between her shoulders and the bend of her legs.
Am I... being held?
Having lived for over twenty years, Alena rarely had memories of being lifted high and kissed on the cheek by someone.
Her unfortunate childhood and even after being adopted by Sasha, she never had the memories of a happy family like other children did. Although her aunt took care of and cared for her, it was still not the same as a real family.
She realized she was being held, and her heartbeat involuntarily slowed down a beat, nervous and unaccustomed.
Like a cat being held off the ground with its belly up.
Cats seek security wherever they go. Unless they have a high level of trust in their "shit collector," they won't willingly let their belly be exposed while lifted off the ground. If they leave the safety of the ground, they become anxious and afraid. Humans can sometimes be like cats, when our feet leave the ground and we are held up, it means entrusting our weight and safety to another person. This can make us very uncomfortable and temporarily unbalanced.
Alena was being held, she was unaccustomed. The frail girl had no strength to resist, completely vulnerable and in a state of mind that was suitable for taking advantage of.
She still didn't know what had happened to the two magical beasts, nor did she realize that she had only been unconscious for a few minutes.
When she opened her eyes, she saw a noble face bathed in sunlight, exuding a meticulously meticulous and composed demeanor, like gears of steel teeth biting together, although devoid of any emotional expression like a sculpture.
Seemingly noticing her gaze, the young man lowered his eyes.
Alena saw the other person's eyes, bright with golden irises, noble and rational, yet harboring a gentle humanity deep within.
Boom, boom, boom...
She heard the sound of her heartbeat, as if opening a long-forgotten music box. The pleasant melody echoed in her ears, unconsciously capturing her attention, leaving her in a daze, and the air seemed to carry the aroma of aged wine.
And then she was set down.
She enjoyed the princess carry from the emperor for less than ten seconds.
Because the countdown was about to end, it was too short-lived, thirty seconds were worth nothing.
Michelle, as an onlooker, saw everything clearly and was about to speak, but the young man closed one eye and said, "Shh..."
He said, "Time's up."
The golden hue was brushed away like dust, the radiance faded from gold to a dull afternoon sunlight, everything seemed like an illusion.
The young man's figure faded into the void, and the legendary phantom from history also faded into history. It was nothing more than a remnant that inadvertently emerged from the past.
Murmuring, Michelle spoke, "Mr. Devil...?"
No one responded, and she grabbed her skirt, as if she had missed something.
Setting aside these thoughts, she walked towards Alena, enduring the pain. "Are you okay?"
Alena felt like she was in a dream, but she suddenly awakened from the enchanting embrace. "I'm... I'm fine, I'm good."
She spoke unnaturally and raised her hand to tidy her hair and face, concealing her emotions.
"Who was that just now?" Alena couldn't help but ask curiously.
"I don't know either," Michelle shook her head. She instinctively lied and raised her hand to tidy up the strands of hair stuck with blood, whispering, "He just appeared out of nowhere."
Fortunately, the summoning array had been mostly consumed by the flames. Otherwise, summoning such a powerful spirit would be difficult to explain.
Alena also believed it and didn't doubt that it was her best friend. If she had that ability, she wouldn't have been beaten so badly.
She thought of the young man just now, and her pale face flushed involuntarily.
...Suspension bridge effect, it must be the suspension bridge effect.
She leaned against the wall, sighing weakly. "I was just out shopping, but I ended up encountering something like this. How embarrassing..."
"Two high-level demons, summoned by Summoning Crystals," Michelle said anxiously. "It seems like they were after you."
"I shouldn't have such a big enemy, right?" Alena hesitated. "But Capesh might be an exception."
Approximately five minutes later, a group of fully armed warriors and knights in anti-demon armor arrived at the mall. A group of strong men prepared themselves mentally, eager for a bloody battle. However, as soon as they entered, their gazes were fixed on the corpses of two high-level demons on the ground, leaving them stunned in place.
"Who did this... A wave of performance bonuses and walking second-class achievements gone."
"Seems like it was done by two female college students... Recent college life is really good."
"Why did we come here?"
"Stop talking, let's clean up the mess first!"
