468. Locke's Past
"That's a good response." Pyrus laughed a few times, "But, ah, I only used thirty percent of my strength......"
Almost as soon as he finished speaking, Billus's figure broke free from Sean's lock on one side slightly, and the knife he held in each hand was swung cross-fertally towards Sean's head - like a pair of scissors. Whether it was speed or strength, this attack of Pyrus was full of impeccable shock, and even the air was faintly vibrated by the swing of his twin blades.
Just listen to the sound of "bang".
The Black King in Sean's hand was already on the attack track of Pyrus's twin swords, just blocking Pelus's attack. Immediately after that, he saw the wrist of Sean's right hand move, and the Black King swirled slightly along Sean's right hand, which shook the power that Pyrus blessed on the double swords, which made Pelus's pupils shrink suddenly. But Sean's counterattack didn't stop there, his left hand clenched his fist slammed forward, hitting the Black King's sword horizontally, like the last straw that broke the camel's back, completely shaking Pelus's double sword apart.
Then, Sean's right hand flicked forward, and the tip of the sword was pointed at Billus's throat once moreβonly this time, it pierced a little deeper, and not just through the epidermis.
This wound already made Pyrus feel uncomfortable even swallowing saliva.
"So now, how much strength do you use?" Sean raised his eyebrows and laughed coldly, "But no matter how much you use, it doesn't mean anything to me, because I haven't even used half of my strength." β
Pyrus stared at Sean, but there was no fear or anger in his eyes, only a more fiery and intense fighting intent in his eyes.
For this kind of look. Sean couldn't be more familiar.
To be honest, he didn't like these kinds of battle maniacs. Because their obsession with fighting is simply a kind of never-ending madness. In order to fight against the strong, they will constantly entangle. Even make some actions that go against common sense and convention, and even worse, they will sacrifice their souls in order to be able to fight with the stronger ones constantly, and completely become a killing machine.
Sean couldn't be sure which one Pyrus belonged to.
But he knew that he had shown enough strength in front of Pyrus, which would only make Pyrus pester himself even more. So Sean has already begun to consider whether to kill Pyrus directly here, because he really doesn't have much of a mood to entangle with this kind of battle maniac.
"Interesting!" Pyrrhus let out a burst of laughter, not caring at all about the wound in his throat being ramped by his own rampant laughter.
Sean's brow furrowed even tighter.
"I used half of my strength just now. But since you're able to ......"
"I'm not interested in how much strength you've used." Sean's voice became extremely cold, and murderous aura began to emanate from his body, "But if you want to strike again, then be prepared to fight to the death." β¦β¦ I'm not going to be merciful. β
Pyrus's face showed an even more fanatical look, and his body even began to tremble slightly. This was not a trembling of fear, but because of being stimulated by Sean's murderous aura, the whole person began to tremble with more excitement, and his eyes began to glow with a burst of red light.
Sean held the Black King's right hand and increased the grip of the hilt, and his eyes had become unusually cold. Ready to directly clear the trouble of Pyrus on the spot.
"Pyrus!"
But at this moment, Egger suddenly roared, and the awe-inspiring momentum also erupted directly from his body, turning into a violent air flow erupting. Countless grasses were under the impact of this air current. They flew up and scattered in the air.
Bilus, whose eyes were red, glanced back at Egger, his eyes just as cold. His face looked very annoyed. Although his sanity was still there at the moment, the violent killing aura in his heart had already begun to rise. The breath that emanates from the nostrils is even clearly visible as hot white gas.
"Don't forget the rules!" Egg said coldly, not afraid of Pyrus's condition at this time.
It seems that Iger's words are indeed very effective. So much so that Pierus's eyes soon gradually reverted from bright red to their original pupil color. However, the indifferent look on his face was completely different from the temperament of the battle maniac just now, and the difference between the front and back was almost like two people - at this time, Pyrus was more like a humanoid killing machine, completely emotionless, and in his eyes, there was probably only killing at this time.
"Unfortunately, now doesn't seem to be the time." Pyrus retracted his gaze, then looked at Sean, the corners of his mouth lifted slightly, revealing a smile, but this smile seemed to exude an inexplicable cruelty and tyranny, "But...... I look forward to fighting you! β
"I'm not looking forward to it at all." Sean said lightly, "I've never been interested in responding to the challenge of the mortal. β
"Huh." Pyrus chuckled, but didn't say anything more, but turned to look at the others, waved his hand, and then left with the others.
Sean stared coldly at the departing back of Pyrus.
In Sean's eyes, this back was almost full of flaws and empty doors, and it was basically difficult for any assassin to resist in the face of such an enemy. However, Sean knew that this was a trap, and Pyrus was luring him to take the lead. Although he didn't know how Pyrus would fight back, he believed that if he made a move at this moment, he would definitely not kill Pyrus, but would probably put himself in a dangerous situation.
"Why are you stopping me?" After Pyrus had left completely, Sean turned his head to look at Iger and asked in a cold voice.
"Because this is a floating island." Egger's voice was equally tough, "I don't know what the rules of your earthly people are. But on the Floating Island, although he and I are at odds with each other, and can even be said to be at odds with each other, it's just that now I'm on the same side as him, so it's impossible for you to fight him in front of me anyway. β
"So, if I had fought him just now, you would have teamed up with him against me?" Sean raised an eyebrow.
"Yes." Iger admits dryly. "That's the rule of our Floating Island. β¦β¦ Even if there is any contradiction in private, once they are on the same front. Then they can only be companions and comrades-in-arms. β¦β¦ If you don't want to cause trouble for Levi and Alyssa, there are some rules you'd better follow. β
"What if...... Did I just kill you all? Sean stared at Egger. He asked in a deep voice, "In this way, won't there be no witnesses?" β
"Yes, if that's the case, it's true that no one can hold you accountable." Egger's face was very calm, "But...... With Pyrus here, you can't do it. β¦β¦ That guy is different from the average person. β
"Oh?" Sean raised an eyebrow, "What's the difference?" β
"He's a descendant of the mad god."
Sean's pupils shrank slightly. His face also looked a little solemn: "No wonder you give him such a high evaluation." If it's just that kind of strength, I don't think he has the strength to fight you. β¦β¦ However, if there is mad god blood in the body, it is a different matter. β
Iger didn't say anything more.
Sean looked in the direction of Pyrus' departure, lost in thought.
In Sean's eyes, the Floating Island was originally just a large map that had never been explored. However, as he came into contact with Iger and Pyrus, he gradually discovered that the situation on the Floating Island was more complicated than he had imagined.
One thing is certain, though, and that is that the Floating Island is indeed a huge treasure trove.
Here, he had already met the legendary Astral Assassin. I also saw people who used heavy swords, which can be classified as strange weapons, and who had the blood of gods flowing in their bodies, and even saw the unique discipline and military literacy of Floating Island. Either way, it's a very unique treasure to the Earthworld, and it can be said that the entire Floating Island is a huge treasure.
Sean sighed lightly, "That assassin just now." What's going on? β
"You mean...... Locke? Egger was stunned for a moment, and then his face became a little unnatural, "That's ...... It's a long story. β
"I have a lot of time." Sean wasn't going to let go of the clue.
"Okay." Looking at Sean's serious eyes. Iger could only sigh helplessly, "Locke...... It used to be the pride of our Floating Saint Academy. In his time. The so-called top ten of the academy is a joke at all, even if it is a collection of top ten. Nor will it be Locke's opponent. β
"Is he that strong?" Sean was a little confused.
He had fought Locke just now, although his combat skills were indeed too much beyond the level of normal people, and only Sean could realize his attack intentions, but he was obviously not very strong in other aspects. Whether it's strength, agility, or stamina, Sean is able to hold him down, and the only thing that bothers Sean is his unique ability to disguise - if it weren't for his True Eye, Sean wouldn't have been able to catch his tracks.
He ...... Injuries. Iger sighed, his voice was a little helpless and sad, "It's been five hundred years since Locke became famous. β¦β¦ He stepped into the realm of legends very early, and all along, he has always been far ahead of his peers in terms of talent and ability, and his contemporaries are not without geniuses, but they can't hold their heads up in front of him at all. β
Hearing Egger's words, Sean also sighed a little in his heart: This is simply a life that has been opened.
"There are some planes in the Black and White Holy Land that were accidentally discovered by the students of our Holy Academy during their training and practice. However, because no one has ever explored these planes, they are full of certain dangers, and it is not even easy to establish a stable spatial teleportation channel. Egger continued, "But ten of the pioneering planes that have now been completely stabilized were built thanks to Locke's great efforts. β¦β¦ For this reason, he even had a record of being seriously injured and nearing death. β
"He was injured this time, and his foundation was damaged, which led to the damage of his strength, right?" Sean asked.
As Iger said just now, Locke broke through the legendary realm a long time ago, but when he fought just now, Locke only had a lower sanctuary. In this case, it is usually because of the damage caused by the unrecoverable Yan zhΓ²ng, which leads to the destruction of all aspects of the body's functions, and the strength of the body is reduced. This kind of unexpected situation, even for the players who were in the game at the beginning, is a very serious loss - after all, this is a major level down, not just a level down.
From this, you can imagine how severe this is for the loss of NPCs - there were many high-level players or RMB players in the game who suffered this kind of damage, which led to these characters and pets becoming almost no different from waste. Of course, it is not impossible to recover, but the value of restoration is more expensive than buying a new one, and not many players would choose to bear the cost of restoration if it were not for reasons such as true love or uniqueness.
Therefore, Sean can understand Locke's mood at that time.
"And then?" Sean asked.
"And then?" Egg smiled bitterly, "And then all the glory was gone away from Locke overnight. β¦β¦ At that time, Locke had been recuperating for five years, and when he reappeared in front of others, he was nothing more than a person from the Bronze Realm. Later, many people who had been ridiculed and humiliated by Locke came to the door and took revenge on him. β
"I didn't think that's going to happen to you on the Sky Island." Sean sneered, obviously sarcastic about what Iger had just done to prevent Sean from killing Pelus.
Iger was well aware of this, but he didn't respond to it, but continued: "Later, Locke suddenly disappeared from everyone's eyes. β¦β¦ At the time, everyone believed that Locke couldn't stand the humiliation and chose to commit suicide. Many people have lamented this. β¦β¦ However, unexpectedly, not only did Locke not die, but also regained the strength of the lower Sanctuary, which seemed to be a bit tricky. β
"You said Locke became famous five hundred years ago."
Unexpectedly, not only did Locke not die, but also regained the strength of the lower Sanctuary, which seemed to be a bit tricky. β
"You said Locke became famous five hundred years ago."
Things are looking a little tricky. β
"You said Locke became famous five hundred years ago."
"You said Locke became famous five hundred years ago."
Unexpectedly, not only did Locke not die, but also regained the strength of the lower Sanctuary, which seemed to be a bit tricky. β
"You said Locke became famous five hundred years ago."
Things are looking a little tricky. β
"You said Locke became famous five hundred years ago." (To be continued......)
