Chapter 482 Murder, Defection!
Chapter 482 Murder, Defection!
As the earth dragon turtle grew stronger, its size also increased.
Xiao Yu encountered a big problem.
The current earthworm is over ten kilometers long and wide.
If it were to walk on the ground, it would be as enormous as a moving continent.
When it travels, each step it takes causes a minor earthquake.
Forests were razed to the ground, mountains and rivers were trampled... ruins were everywhere.
Wherever the Earth Dragon Turtle went, it brought disaster comparable to a full moon night, plowing across the continent time and time again.
This world is already bad enough!
Xiao Yu didn't want the world to become increasingly devastated because of him.
It's already like this at only the ninth rank. What will it be like when the Earth Dragon Turtle advances to the tenth rank?
It's simply unimaginable; there's no need to wait for some century-long catastrophe to arrive!
Because this earth dragon turtle will become the most dangerous creature in the world!
Finally, after discussion, everyone came up with a solution.
During the daytime journey, Xiao Yu would have the Earth Dragon Turtle use its earth-遁 (earth-遁 is a type of escape technique) to burrow underground and continue traveling.
Its massive body merges into the ground, just like swimming, and will no longer damage the continent.
The only things exposed are some ventilation pipes that provide oxygen to the people living in Dragon City.
With the glowing trees releasing oxygen, the people of Longcheng will not feel suffocated.
In the afternoon, when the earth dragon turtle stopped to rest, it burrowed out of the ground again.
……
Inside a dilapidated stone house in the city of government offices.
"Captain, I don't need you to save me!"
Agatha suddenly opened her eyes, sat up from the stone bed, and screamed.
Once I regained consciousness, I quickly sorted through the events that had just transpired in my mind.
Because of the mission's failure, the Second Elder was going to use extreme punishment on them.
She and Captain Sanlo will both have one hand cut off and be fitted with a mechanical arm.
In the end, however, the captain chose to shoulder the burden alone!
She was seriously injured and fell into a coma, and was taken back to her home.
"Ah Sangluo! You bastard, it's always the same! Who told you to meddle in other people's business!"
Agatha's pretty face contorted with rage. She cursed and stormed out of the house.
But the next second, her forehead hit the threshold, and she fell to the ground.
Previously, he was severely injured by the Second Elder's palm strike and would not be able to recover in a short time.
"You idiot, I'm all grown up now, I won't let you take all the blame for me anymore!" Agatha cursed, struggling to get up again.
Several years ago, it was the captain who sacrificed himself and took on everything for her.
This time, she will never let history repeat itself!
Even though she now has great difficulty walking.
But... after taking a few deep breaths.
Agatha immediately activated her wind-elemental talent and quickly headed towards a certain location in the Mechanical City.
Sangluo was taken away yesterday.
Agatha was terrified that she was too late.
With that in mind, she sped up again.
"Are they finally going to make their move?"
At this moment, in a spacious room of over 100 square meters, Sangluo stared at the ceiling, looking dazed.
Around the room, lamps made of burning animal fat illuminated the space brightly.
If you look closely, you'll see that there are bloodstains everywhere.
There was also an extremely strong smell of blood, which made people want to vomit.
The entire room looked just like an execution ground.
Sangluo was lying on a dark iron bed.
His limbs were firmly chained, making it impossible for him to move.
These chains are made of black iron and are indestructible; even a seventh-level cultivator cannot break free from them.
"Captain Sangluo, relax, don't be so nervous..."
Several people were surrounding the iron bed. The head of the Punishment Hall patted him lightly on the shoulder to reassure him, "Don't worry... I'll be quick, one cut and it'll be over!"
This is an elderly man with white hair and a kind smile on his face.
As he spoke, he casually waved his hand.
Several people immediately stepped forward and held down Sangluo's right arm and right leg.
The white-haired old man gripped a large knife, brandished it a couple of times, and then brought it down with a sudden chop.
As the greatsword was about to fall, Sang Luo smiled bitterly to himself and slowly closed his eyes.
Since getting these mechanical hands and feet, his strength has indeed increased considerably.
But... he also completely lost his left hand and left foot! He is no longer a complete person!
Such pain is something that those who haven't experienced it simply cannot understand.
But the next second, with a 'clang', the old man's broadsword flew out of his hand.
Immediately afterwards, a ghostly figure rushed in.
"Agatha? It's you! How dare you trespass into the Punishment Hall of the Mechanical City?" The white-haired old man first looked down at his empty hands, paused for a moment, and then shouted, "Are you trying to rebel? Seize her!"
"Fine, I'll fight you to the death!" Agatha shouted.
She once again unleashed the power of the wind, pushing her speed to its limit, and instantly appeared in front of the white-haired old man.
The head of the Punishment Hall was only a sixth-level expert.
Facing a wind-type speed awakener, they didn't even have time to react.
He was killed with a single blow.
The guards were all terrified when they saw this.
They immediately surrounded Agatha, intending to capture her.
"Agatha, are you crazy? Don't worry about me! Go away!" In his moment of despair, seeing Agatha rush in suddenly warmed Sangluo's heart, and he felt that his efforts had not been in vain.
This is the little sister I watched grow up.
He even risked betraying the city for his own sake, but he didn't want to implicate the other party.
Because he could tell that Agatha was clearly injured and was just putting on a brave face.
"Enough with the nonsense!" Agatha ignored her and used her talent again.
After a few more stabs, the remaining men all fell into pools of blood.
However, Agatha herself was also slashed, and her injuries worsened again.
His already pale face became even paler.
"Agatha, hurry up and go!" Sanlo urged again.
Someone has already rushed out to report the news.
And since this place is not far from the Elders' Hall, the Second Elder will soon find out.
It probably won't be long before experts come to besiege them.
"Captain, I'll take you away!" But this time, Agatha did not obey.
She struggled to her feet, found the key on the white-haired old man, put Sangluo down, and ran outside with the others.
"Oh, you're so foolish!" Sangluo turned to look at Agatha and gave a wry smile.
Although he was freed from his restraints, he had previously been injected with a paralyzing toxin.
Now, in his weakened state, he is unable to resist and can only let Agatha lead him away.
"I've had enough! The worst that can happen is death!" Agatha sneered.
The two bickered as they forced themselves to hurry out of the city.
Agatha not only stopped the execution, but also killed the head of the Punishment Hall.
Such behavior is a complete descent into a path of no return!
The only way for the two to survive is to escape the mechanical city immediately!
"Agatha, how dare you! You actually killed someone and defected!"
