Chapter 193 Monarch-level Dark Creatures
Chapter 193 Monarch-level Dark Creatures
"You are—" One of the commanders widened his eyes, stared at Liu Qi for a while, and then said, "I'm sorry, I don't know how to leave."
Liu Qi had no choice but to leave.
After Liu Qi left, another commander asked him a question.
"This person—."
"Yes, it feels familiar. Even though they are different people, it gives me this feeling. It was definitely the right decision not to make a move." The commander was somewhat relieved that his underlings had done a good job.
After Liu Qi returned, they immediately surrounded him.
"What do you mean?"
"They don't know how they got out, and judging from their appearance, they are indeed from the Dark Dimension. They came in because of the Nether Bell, but they are not in danger for the time being," Liu Qi said.
The group exchanged glances but didn't ask Liu Qi how he came to that conclusion.
"Let's head back and see if we can shake off these demons," said Mr. Wu. "We still need to figure out how to get out of here."
The only way is to walk, keep walking. If you don't walk, you won't know where the right place is. You can't figure it out just by analyzing.
"Liu Qi, how do you know so much? I heard you disappeared after graduation, and even Su Ming couldn't find you," Jiang Shaoxu asked softly as they walked at the back.
"Su Ming contacted me?" Liu Qi asked, somewhat surprised.
"Don't worry about that. I'm just guessing she contacted you," Jiang Shaoxu said.
"As for me—this experience was very painful. You just need to know that it won't harm you. I won't hurt you; that's my principle," Liu Qi said.
His words made Jiang Shaoxu laugh: "Why do I feel like you—how could you possibly say something that could hurt us?"
"You're even more powerful than Mr. Wu, that super-level mage."
Jiang Shaoxu was just joking. One was a mid-level mage, and the other was a super-level mage. There was no comparison between the two. They were not even in the same dimension.
There is no precedent for a mid-level mage to be more powerful than a super-level mage.
Su Ming—he didn't know if he counted, but Su Ming was clearly not himself anymore, so he couldn't be counted like that.
"Maybe. Boss isn't possessed by some Garuda, maybe I'm the same way," Liu Qi said. "What Garuda?" Jiang Shaoxu was a little confused. She only knew that Su Ming was controlled by Xiao Qing, but she didn't know that Xiao Qing's original name was Garuda.
And Liu Qi is the same as Su Ming?
Are you kidding me!
Su Ming is now someone even President Wu fears, and he can approach the level of a super-elite with a casual spell.
The reason is unclear, but Su Ming is now extremely powerful.
And Liu Qi was the same as him?
No matter how she thought about it, Jiang Shaoxu felt that something was wrong and illogical.
"Alright, don't dwell on this. It's pointless. Whether I'm strong or weak is none of your business. If I'm weak, I'll need your protection; if I'm strong, I won't hurt you." Liu Qi smiled, seemingly unwilling to discuss the matter further.
"Alright." Jiang Shaoxu could only helplessly end the topic, but the matter never truly ended in her mind.
What exactly did Liu Qi go through?
It was strange that they were in this ancient tomb. Although Mu Bai and Mu Qianjin hadn't figured out why they came in, they were clearly confused. Liu Qi, on the other hand, knew exactly what he had to do and what he should do.
He was very clear-headed, which is why Jiang Shaoxu found it strange.
Liu Qi remained silent, observing his surroundings. Due to the boundary between the Dark Dimension and the Ancient Tomb, the space here had become extremely unstable.
Significant changes have occurred, making it impossible for Liu Qi to determine the route he has taken in a short period of time.
The lighting was then taken over by Mr. Wu. His light magic could illuminate an area of about one kilometer. The number of demons in the visible range began to decrease, and they left the place where the demons had gathered.
The light didn't reach the end, and there were no road signs to guide them. They didn't know if they were moving backward or if they were just going around in circles.
Liu Qi stretched out his hand, then suddenly paused. He wanted to smoke a cigarette to relieve the pressure, but—a black line appeared on his hand.
Like a tattoo, but much more profound. Ordinary people might not understand what it is, but he is Liu Qi, and he can tell at a glance that it is a demon planted on his body.
"They've got their eyes on me?" Liu Qi murmured. He didn't feel anything from the black patterns. If he didn't actively look for it, he wouldn't even know he had this thing in his hand. Liu Qi looked up and cautiously surveyed his surroundings.
"Although those demons don't seem dangerous, it's still best to be careful. Prepare your magic, as we could be attacked by demons at any time," said Mr. Wu. He hadn't let his guard down since the beginning. In this kind of place, one's life is in one's own hands, and it's impossible to trust those demons.
Humans and demons have been enemies for countless years, so it would be a miracle if you could trust them. Although they are demons from the dark dimension, they are still demons at heart, and demons are no good.
"I feel—" Mu Qianjin began, but was interrupted before she could finish.
"They're here!" Liu Qi shouted. They were still confused about what had happened, only noticing Liu Qi's grave expression.
Then it just disappeared?
"Get out of the way! It was a demon that knocked Liu Qi away. Judging from its appearance, it's a monarch-level demon. All of you, retreat!" Boss Wu shouted. Their cultivation levels were too low to tell, but Boss Wu was a super-level mage, far ahead in every aspect.
The moment Liu Qi shouted, he saw a dark figure run out of the shadows a thousand meters away. The shadow was not large, not much bigger than a human, and about the same size as most general-level demons.
He burst out of the shadows at such speed that Mr. Wu could only see his exhaust fumes. He must have been gathering his strength for a very long time. Liu Qi was sent flying by his slap and has disappeared without a trace. He flew a thousand meters away and no one knows what his current situation is.
The demon disappeared after swatting Liu Qi away; it's unclear whether it hid in the darkness again or went to find Liu Qi.
Mr. Wu remained alert, but there was no sound from his surroundings.
"A monarch-level creature, definitely a monarch-level creature. Its speed was too fast; even I couldn't react in time." Mr. Wu's face was somewhat grim; the creature had been taken away right under his nose.
Monarch-level beings are catastrophic. Let alone a mid-level mage, even a high-level mage like him would lose half his life if struck by a monarch.
It all depends on how well the magic tool is used. A good use can save half your life, while a bad use will kill you instantly.
Liu Qi was merely a mid-level mage, and he could already be declared dead. Mid-level mages do not possess any treasures capable of blocking a monarch; the two are simply not in the same league and cannot be compared.
It's already quite remarkable that Liu Qi wasn't slapped into a bloody mist by Monarch Bio.
