Chapter 338: Chapter 338
Simply put, fame can make the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall develop faster, which in turn accelerates his own progress.
Killing Fred is not a problem; on the contrary, it is a good thing. ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ꜰʀᴏᴍ novelFire.net
Above the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall, several B6 Level flying transport vehicles had just come to a stop when several figures leaped down, all landing in the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall. This caused the vagabonds on the street to be both startled and curious.
"What’s going on? Why have people from the City Defense Corps come?"
"Damn! Those few look like captains of the City Defense Corps!"
"Why would such important figures come to the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall? Could something major have happened there?"
Many apprentices familiar with the situation in Chasing Light City and members of other forces couldn’t help but gasp when they saw the figures landing in the training ground of the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall.
Besides dealing with monsters outside the city, the City Defense Corps has another task of maintaining order within the city.
Under normal circumstances, it would be impressive to have a captain-level expert dispatched, but now there were no less than three captains of the City Defense Corps present. Such a large-scale operation hadn’t been seen in Chasing Light City for decades.
"Is this the place where Bone Forger Realm experts fought?" A Half-Scale Race woman in dark red Tier Two Battle Armor surveyed the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall and couldn’t help but ask the Three-Eyed Race bald man beside her.
"Drone detection showed that there was a duel between Bone Forger Realm martial artists here, with significant fluctuations. Initial assessments of qi and blood indicate at least a middle-stage Bone Forger Realm martial artist." The Three-Eyed Race bald man nodded, his expression very serious. "But for some reason, the activity has stopped now, and no other Bone Forger Realm experts have been detected by the surrounding drones. They should not have left."
"In any case, let’s be cautious. Since that person had the guts to make a move within the city, they must be formidable," the Ape Race one-eyed man reminded. "If someone escapes later, it will be a big embarrassment for us three."
The Half-Scale Race woman and the Three-Eyed Race bald man also nodded and carefully followed the one-eyed man into the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall.
As the captains stationed in Chasing Light City, each had high-tier extreme Bone Forging Realm strength. If the martial artist engaged in combat escaped while they acted together, it would definitely be a blow to their reputation. It might even affect their chance to stay as the city defenders in the future, as decided by the City Lord.
As they cautiously proceeded to the Intermediate Training Room of the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall, the sight of the shattered remains inside increasingly confirmed the intensity of the battle. The combatants were undeniably powerful, definitely holding middle-stage Bone Forging Realm strength.
Upon seeing Lin Qi and Donna inside the room, the three of them immediately focused their full attention, remaining on high alert.
"Was it you two fighting just now?" the Half-Scale Race woman asked Lin Qi and Donna, while her mechanical device began scanning them to verify their identities.
"No," Lin Qi shook his head and pointed to the Sub-demon Race man lying on the ground, "Just now, this Sub-demon Race man came to my martial arts hall to assassinate me. Donna is our guest here and has also recorded the events that took place."
"Assassination indeed," the Half-Scale Race woman nodded, aligning with their earlier assumptions. She then praised, "Hall Master Lin, you are quite impressive. It’s rumored that you’ve just entered the Bone Forging Realm, yet you managed to defend against an assassination by a Bone Forger Realm expert."
"Since the assassin is taken care of, let’s just verify his identity and head back." The Three-Eyed Race bald man didn’t show much warmth towards Lin Qi.
The Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall had recently been in the limelight, even stepping on the corpses of monsters the Three-Eyed Race Defense Corps had dealt with to rise to power, making the bald man have a poor impression of Hall Master Lin.
Just as the Three-Eyed Race bald man was about to leave, the Ape Race man who was investigating the assassin’s identity suddenly spoke up.
"You two, get over here quickly! Something big has happened!" The Ape Race man stared intently at the Sub-demon Race man on the ground and exclaimed in alarm, "This man is the Four-Armed Blade Demon Fred!"
