Starting With 3 S-Class Talents

Chapter 406: The City Lord of Serene Spring City

Andre displayed an unexcelled arrogance and confidence when facing the assassination team formed by Avril and the others.

In his eyes, they were a motley crew. The strongest among them, Horace was only a level 39 creature, while Avril and Angelina were two outsiders. Although their methods were unusual, their true strength did not even reach level 30. Therefore, to Andre, they were opponents that he could easily defeat!

At that moment, two more black shadows flew past. One of them stabbed at Andre like a sharp blade, while the other quickly rushed to the side of the pit where Ebenezer had fallen.

Andre wanted to go forward and stop them from taking the opportunity to save Ebenezer, but two pitch-black blades suddenly appeared in front of him from within the shadows. He had no choice but to look away and raise his arms to block their attacks.

In a split second, Andre had managed to grab the two blades in front of him. However, before he could clench his fists, the two black blades pulled away at lightning speed and slashed at his thigh. Their speed was so fast that it made Andre feel shocked.

However, Andre did not dodge the attack. Instead, he let the two pitch-black blades stab into his thigh. Sounds of metal colliding could be heard. The two blades soon bounced off Andre’s thigh. They could only return empty-handed.

The black shadow faded, revealing Guru Harson’s figure. He was an elder of the Shadow Demon Race and a level 35 creature. Andre’s body strength had far exceeded his imagination. Therefore, he had no choice but to quickly retreat to Avril and the others.

At the same time, another black shadow rushed back as well. It was Daniel. After dragging Ebenezer out of the underground pit, he quickly brought him to retreat behind Avril and the others.

Ebenezer was covered in blood, and his chest had sunk deeply. He said weakly, “I have medicine in my storage ring. You don’t have to worry about me for now. You must find the flaw in his body. Otherwise, even if we work together, it will be difficult for us to kill a level 45 creature!”

Everyone could not help but nod solemnly in response.

Avril turned to Dave and said, “You know Andre the best. Think of a way to deal with him as soon as possible. We will buy you some time!”

Dave did not expect such a heavy burden to fall on him. However, in this critical moment, he could only nod repeatedly.

After seeing that Dave had agreed, Avril immediately turned to the others and said, “Attack! But keep a distance from him. At the same time, you must control the hatred in your heart!”

Avril and Angelina took the lead and rushed out. With their god bodies, their speed and power were greatly enhanced. They were the most suitable candidates to deal with Andre!

Andre clenched his fists and roared, “Good! You all will die today!”

In the next second, Andre disappeared from where he was and appeared in front of Avril and Angelina. He raised his two fists high and swung them toward Avril and Angelina.

Avril quickly raised the huge ax in her hand to block Andre’s fist, however, Andre’s strength was abnormally strong. His hands instantly turned from fists to claws and tore the huge ax apart.

At the same time, Avril and Angelina took the opportunity to dodge left and right. They turned around and distracted Andre from both sides.

Horace and Guru Harson, who were both assassins, seized the opportunity and rushed forward toward Andre one after the other. They were looking for Andre’s flaw.

When Andre turned his head to look at Avril, Horace seized the opportunity and transformed into green light. He then raised his dagger to stab at Andre’s throat.

As Guru Harson’s attack on Andre’s thigh was ineffective, he aimed at Andre’s armpit instead. His entire body instantly sped up, turning into a black afterimage as he charged forward at high speed.

Andre naturally noticed that his true opponents with moves that could kill were Horace and Harson. Thus, he quickly retracted his gaze and looked forward. He was prepared to block the attacks of the two assassins.

However, at that moment, Angelina and Avril, who had just flown to his sides, suddenly rushed forward and grabbed Andre’s arms from both sides.

“Decay!” shouted Angelina.

A blue-white aura instantly appeared in her hands and directly wrapped around Andre’s left hand.

Previously, Angelina had tried to absorb the power of the demons but was later injured. Therefore, Angelina did not dare to use her special ability to resist the demons. Instead, she could only use a brand-new skill that was created based on her special ability. The skill allowed her to destroy and disperse the demon’s power, but not absorb it for her own use. Although it was a waste, she could weaken Andre’s power effectively!

Andre suddenly realized that his left hand was slowly weakening as if he had been anesthetized. He struggled to pull his right hand away. He wanted to repel Angelina who was on his left side.

However, at that moment, Andre’s right hand was also being held down by Avril. Furthermore, with the addition of her god of war body, Avril’s own strength was already enough to contend against one of Andre’s arms.

Andre did not expect that he would be controlled in the blink of an eye. He could not even dodge the two upcoming attacks!

In a moment of desperation, Andre could only shout in a low voice, “Demon Sea Crossing!”

A large amount of demonic aura surged up, like a long snake. It slid along Andre’s arms to attack Avril and Angelina.

When Avril and Angelina saw this, they naturally knew that it would be very dangerous if they got themselves entangled with the demonic aura. However, it was currently the best time to attack Andre. Therefore, they could only grit their teeth and persevere. They wanted to see if they would be attacked by Andre’s demonic aura first, or if Horace and Harson’s attack would hurt Andre first!

Just as Harson and Horace’s daggers pierced into Andre’s body, a large amount of demonic aura instantly wrapped around Avril and Angelina.

The moment they came into contact with the demonic aura, Avril and Angelina’s eyes instantly turned pitch-black. Traces of black blood vessels appeared on their foreheads. The color on their faces instantly faded, and they turned extremely pale!

Just as the demonic aura invaded their bodies, their hands that were holding onto Andre lost their strength completely.

After Andre regained his freedom, he did not immediately launch a counterattack against the four of them around him. Instead, he held onto his throat and armpits, which were surging with blood, and quickly retreated.

Ebenezer, who was not able to participate in the battle due to his injuries, noticed Avril and Angelina’s appearances and quickly shouted, “Not good! The demonic aura has entered their bodies, and they are about to demonize!”

After saying that, Ebenezer could not help but look at Dave, who was beside him. He urged him anxiously, “Can you find a way to restrain Andre? If this drags on, all of us will die!”

Dave was also burning with anxiety at that moment. His eyes were constantly looking at Andre’s body from top to bottom. Suddenly, he noticed that Andre’s chest and back were still covered with black scales, but his four limbs that had grown back were exposed.

Although Guru Harson had just cut Andre’s thigh, Andre’s newly grown flesh had a strong defensive ability. Horace and Harson were attacking effectively at this time. They had attacked Andre’s throat and armpit.

Dave recalled that Ebenezer had also cut open a wound on Andre earlier. He also remembered how Andre had regenerated a new arm.

After thinking about it, Dave quickly shouted, “Although he can regenerate new limbs, the parts that are connected to his main body are the weakest ones! Attack where his scales and limbs are connected, that is his weakness!”

After Harson and Horace succeeded in their attack, they wanted to take Angelina and Avril to retreat. However, when they heard Dave’s warning, they immediately rushed forward and continued to attack Andre.

After seeing that things were not looking good, Andre quickly pointed at Avril and Angelina and shouted, “Stop them!”

Avril and Angelina, whose eyes had turned pitch-black, listened to Andre’s command like marionettes. They instantly flashed in front of Harson and Horace and raised their arms to block their blades.

After seeing this, Horace and Harson had no choice but to stop immediately. They gritted their teeth and looked at Andre who was standing behind the two women.

“Hahaha, go to hell!”

Andre laughed like a maniac. He raised his hands to slap Avril and Angelina’s backs. He knew that he could not control the two outsiders completely. Therefore, after using them to buy himself some time to catch his breath, he wanted to kill them immediately to reduce their combat strength.

At that moment, a crystal spear suddenly appeared in front of Andre and blocked his palms.

Andre was shocked when he saw this. Vincent had suddenly appeared beside him. He could also see the Zerg that was chasing after Vincent from the corner of his eye.

“B*stard, you dare to touch my women? You must die today!”

Vincent used the spear in his left hand to block Andre’s palm. After letting out a cold snort, he pulled out the Return Journey of the Dead and slashed horizontally at Andre’s arms.

Andre withdrew his hands and quickly flew backward to increase the distance between him and Vincent.

In Andre’s heart, those individuals in front of him were not as much of a threat as Vincent, and Vincent was far less dangerous than the Zerg behind him.

Vincent, whom Andre feared the most along with the Zerg soon arrived at the same time.

Andre wanted to retreat temporarily.

Vincent, on the other hand, did not have the time to chase after Andre anymore. He sheathed his knife and grabbed Avril and Angelina. He quickly retreated to Ebenezer’s side.

Vincent stabbed the long spear into the ground and warned Ebenezer, “Stall for time, I want to save the two of them first!”

Ebenezer had just recovered from his injuries. He got up and nodded at Vincent.

“Don’t worry, master. Before the two ladies wake up, we will not let Andre escape!”

After saying that, Ebenezer waved his hand in front of him and said softly, “Open the door!”

A space door opened and Ebenezer instantly disappeared into it.

As the Zerg was no longer inside the space tunnel, the space tunnel had become incomparably safe. If they wanted to delay Andre’s actions, Ebenezer needed to rely on his powerful modification authority.

Vincent did not have the time to watch the battle. He quickly took out the Cup of Fate and began to absorb the demonic aura from Avril and Angelina.

Not far away, Horace and Harson noticed that the two women who were blocking them earlier had already disappeared. Their hearts were filled with both joy and worry.

They were happy that there was finally no one to stop them from attacking Andre. However, they were also worried that if there was no one to stop Andre, they would become Andre’s main opponents.

At this moment, a space door silently opened behind Andre. Ebenezer stretched out half of his body and waved his pitch-black blade arm. He slashed toward Andre’s neck.

Although Andre did not hear any sound behind him, he still sensed danger. He quickly crouched down and dodged Ebenezer’s fatal blow. He then suddenly stood up and threw a punch behind him.

Although Ebenezer failed, he did not hesitate at all. His body instantly shrank, and he hid back into the space door.

Andre could not help but feel even angrier when he saw this. However, he did not have any chance to catch his breath. This was because Horace and Harson had once again approached him and swung their blades at his shoulders.

“Sky Demon Shadow!” shouted Andre.

His entire body instantly became transparent. The attacks slice through his body, but they did not cause him any harm.

Harson and Horace could feel that they had not struck Andre’s real body. They instantly sensed danger and quickly retreated to Vincent’s side.

After a series of intense exchanges, Andre was only stabbed twice. He did not suffer any fatal wounds. However, Vincent’s side was not doing well. Avril and Angelina almost became demon puppets. It could be said that they were at a complete disadvantage.

Andre looked at the assassins who had gathered around Vincent and glanced at the Zerg that was running toward them from afar. He could not help but feel happy as he raised his head and laughed loudly.

Andre said with confidence, “Hahaha! You won’t be able to kill me today. I will use the terrifying power of this Zerg to kill you all one by one!”

Everyone could not help but look troubled. They subconsciously turned to look at Vincent who was behind them. Vincent was focused on removing the demonic aura in the two women’s bodies. He was not affected by the current situation at all.

Guru Halson could not help but ask, “What should we do now? Why don’t we temporarily avoid the sharp edge and retreat first?”

“No, we must kill Andre today. Otherwise, it will be difficult to kill him after he has recovered to his peak condition!” said Horace with a determined look.

Ebenezer, who had re-emerged from the space gate, and Daniel, who was beside him, had lost their minds. They could only look at the two elders who had different opinions silently.

Dave suddenly said, “Horace is right. If we let Andre leave today, it will be a disaster for the entire Elf Race. Therefore, we must leave him here at all costs!”

Horace turned to look at Dave and could not help but nod silently in agreement.

Regardless of Dave’s background and beliefs, his spirit of sacrificing everything for the Elf Race had long been recognized by Horace.

Although the previous peace talks with Dave were all because of Vincent’s threats, Dave had truly won Horace’s support over time.

Horace said to Dave in a righteous manner, “Alright, then we’ll risk our lives to keep Andre here for the sake of the elves!”

Guru Harson could only shake his head helplessly when he heard this. Although he did not approve of this method, he was saved by these individuals, so he could only sacrifice his life to accompany a gentleman.

However, just as everyone reached an agreement, a shadow suddenly appeared above their heads.

Everyone raised their heads in surprise and discovered that the sun had been blocked. Following that, the darkness was like the end of a drama. It blocked out all the light in the sky above Bright Moon City.

Everyone’s line of sight was instantly obstructed. On the opposite side, Andre had turned into a blurry black shadow. At the same time, the Zerg that was rushing over from the distance had also turned into an even bigger shadow.

Horace asked with a blank expression, “What’s going on?”

Dave’s expression was unsightly as he said, “This is a high-level spell from the Demon Race. However, I didn’t see Andre performing the powerful spell earlier.”

Guru Harson could not help but frown when he heard this. He asked, “He has already evolved into a demon. It shouldn’t be difficult for him to cast a spell quickly, right?”

Dave shook his head and said, “That’s impossible. The more powerful the demon’s spells are, the harder it is to conceal the spell-casting movements. But Andre didn’t do anything just now, so he shouldn’t have the chance to cast spells, unless…”

“Unless what?”

Ebenezer could not help but ask after Dave stopped mid-sentence.

Dave took a deep breath and slowly said, “Unless it’s a spell secretly cast by other demons or high-level Dark Elves!”

Everyone was shocked when they heard this. At the same time, they also heard Andre shouting from afar.

“Who is it? Who secretly locked down Bright Moon City?”

Andre’s tone was unusually uneasy and irritable, which made it easy for everyone to hear the fear in his heart. It also proved that he was not the one who had set up the spell.

At that moment, a melodious voice came from afar and said, “Demons were born from the myriad realms. Young demons were born by gathering foul air. Earth demons were born by gathering the negative emotions of all living beings. Sky demons were born by condensing the dark side of the myriad realms. My Lord Gajero is the only sky demon in the world. His believers can obtain the core of the Demon Race by sacrificing themselves and becoming earth demons! Andre, I didn’t expect you to be the first Dark Elf to take this step. Congratulations!”

As the calm and genial voice was heard from afar, Horace and the others, as well as Andre, noticed a figure slowly walking toward them from outside of Bright Moon City.

It was not until she walked in front of them that everyone saw that she was a tall and thin Dark Elf. She held a high priest’s staff in her hand and was wearing the City Lord’s formal attire.

After seeing her attire, Dave sucked in a breath of cold air and exclaimed, “She’s both the City Lord and the High Priest. There’s only one Dark Elf in the entire Dark Elf World who holds both positions. She’s the City Lord of Serene Spring City, Jessica!”
