Chapter 334 Canossa is coming back
If the guys from the "Red Devil Group" had known that they would encounter such a strange pregnancy, they would definitely not choose to provoke Ryan.
But who could have thought that a fourth-level extraordinary guy would be so strong?
Killing people of the same level is as easy as killing a chicken, and he is not at all inferior to veteran strong men who are one level higher.
The leader [Blood Demon] Lyudmila has already begun to think about retreating.
Ryan's methods are so powerful that it is unbelievable.
Even though they relied on their numerical advantage, they injured him several times, but after a moment, the wounds healed strangely.
This is even stronger than their vampire recovery ability!
But isn’t this guy a Qigong master at the fighter level?
[Sky Strike], [Godspeed], [Storm Cut]... the fighter's signature martial arts, each move is perfect.
This is definitely a master-level proficiency.
But now the facts tell him that the guy is actually a healing genius?
Lyudmila couldn't figure it out, and didn't think too much about it.
He just needed to understand that if the stalemate continued, all his subordinates would be killed and he would be dead too.
He wanted to leave, but found "fine needles" in his body.
After Ryan realized that he could not kill the [Blood Demon] Lyudmila in a short period of time, he had already taken some measures to prevent the enemy from escaping.
In the entire "Red Devil Group", the only one he was not sure he could catch up with was this vampire who could teleport.
So, he used the "fine needle" that he had pulled out of Basel's body.
The evil-breaking property of this "Silver Holy Weapon" can just restrain the dark bloodline. Werewolves and vampires will suffer multiple times more damage than ordinary people.
His defense-breaking ability of [Condensing Qi into Gang] allows him to easily insert these fine needles, which are thinner than a hair, into the enemy's meridians.
Now the leader of the Phantom Thieves wants to escape, and these fine needles have already pierced him tens of thousands of times.
…
The vampire's teleportation technique is indeed a super talent for saving lives and killing enemies, but the consumption of fighting spirit is also astonishing.
The farther the teleportation distance, the more fighting spirit needs to be mobilized at one time.
Faced with Ryan's super body skills that were comparable to teleportation, Lyudmila did not dare to hold back at all. If she wanted to escape, she would naturally teleport as far as she could.
But it was during this instant that he realized that something was wrong.
The leader of the Phantom Thieves had just teleported away a long distance when he stopped halfway.
Then there was a "puff" sound, and a mouthful of turbid blood spurted out.
"Damn it...I got hit!"
The fifth-level extraordinary's super-strong perception ability made him immediately realize that the injuries in his body were developing towards a terrible outcome that could lead to his sudden death at any time.
At this time, this guy was also extremely decisive. He did not continue to run away, but suddenly turned around, teleported to the side of a subordinate, then bared his fangs and bit the man's neck.
"ah……"
The thief whose neck was grabbed seemed to know what was going to happen, and a scream echoed throughout the jungle.
Then, a horrifying scene unfolded in front of everyone. The blood on the face of the Level 3 Phantom Thief who was bitten on the neck instantly turned pale, and then his skin shrank rapidly.
But within a breath or two, the man was like a deflated balloon and was sucked dry.
On the other hand, Lyudmila, who had seemed severely injured before, instantly recovered to 80% of her peak complexion and fighting spirit.
He used this method to recover from his injuries, enough for him to teleport away.
Not far away, Ryan killed several thieves with one punch. He caught a glimpse of this scene and raised his eyebrows slightly: "The healing talent of vampires is really exaggerated..."
All the extraordinary people above level three in the "Red Devil Group" have been killed, and the remaining minions are not important.
As for the other fifth-level deputy leader, [Iron Hand] Maxim, although he was not dead yet, he had been severely poisoned.
Now he is relying on his fighting spirit to hold on. Once the fighting spirit is exhausted, he will die sooner or later.
Even if we let him escape, it's not certain that this guy can get far alive.
Thinking of this, Ryan didn't look at this group of low-level thieves any more. He took a big step and chased in the direction where the vampire fled like a bullet.
…
In fact, when Ryan encountered the main force of the "Red Devil Group", it meant that at least the leader Lyudmila was dead.
The vampires' teleportation is indeed fast enough. A fifth-level master's teleportation distance can escape the perception range of a transcendent in the blink of an eye.
But, can it be faster than the pure elemental creature Thunder Crow "Pika"?
Others can't keep the vampires, but Thunder Crow can.
Even if the lightning damage cannot kill this guy with amazing healing abilities, the paralysis effect of the attack can greatly reduce his escape speed.
Just like that, one person chased and the other escaped.
Ryan didn't even give the enemy time to recover from the damage and kept chasing him all the way.
Familiar tactics.
Not long after, without him having to do anything, Lyudmila was finally severely injured by the fine needle during a teleportation and fell to the ground with a bang.
Although his vampire physique prevented him from dying completely, he lost the ability to escape.
Ryan didn't kill him either, because his teacher Irubek had long wanted a high-level vampire to study their physiques.
He put on the "anti-magic handcuffs", carried the guy on his shoulders, and then went to the dense forest to clean up the battlefield.
As he expected, the deputy commander, Iron Hand Maxim, did not escape very far. His body, dead from the poison, was found in a valley more than ten kilometers away.
At this point, the main force of the "Red Devil Group", a large group of phantom thieves that had been rampant in the Sid Empire for a long time, was almost wiped out.
…
A few days later, outside Black Dragon City.
"I've only been away for two months, and the city has changed so much..."
Ryan looked at the huge city in front of him, and a hint of emotion flashed in his eyes.
In the original Black Dragon City, there were only 10,000 people from the Coleman tribe and tens of thousands brought by Ymir from Omar, a total of no more than 50,000 people.
The Black Dragon Territory now has a population of over 100 million and has become a megacity covering thousands of square kilometers.
Not only the main urban area, but also the suburbs and satellite cities.
Although the main part of Black Dragon City is not a mechanical city, there are also many steam equipment in the city, which are large steel mills, workshops, military factories...
Looking around, you can see tall chimneys spewing out white smoke, indicating that this is a prosperous and bustling city.
Because of the need to guard against tides of zombies and beasts, cities are surrounded by high walls.
On the city wall there are soldiers in neat formation.
Ryan didn't ask for any special treatment and just queued up to enter the city.
Because he was carrying a person on his shoulders, the guards at the city gate asked him detailed questions.
Bringing a wanted thief into the city naturally requires a clear explanation.
As soon as he took off the mask, those people immediately recognized his identity.
"Yes... Lord City Lord!"
"The city lord is back!"
“…”
Not only did he shout, but the city defense troops immediately stood at attention and saluted him.
"Look, that's the leader of the Crimson Phantom Thieves, [Blood Devil] Lyudmila!"
"Oh, the city lord has caught that damn thief!"
"Haha, I told you, those thieves who want to cause trouble won't be able to keep going for long... No one should think of destroying the stability of our Black Dragon City!"
"That's right! The city lord is mighty!"
"The city lord is mighty!"
“…”
Ryan's return to the city not only caused a stir at the city gate, but the news of his entry spread like wildfire, and soon residents flocked to the city, each with an excited look on their faces, as if they were "chasing a star".
As long as you are a permanent resident of Black Dragon City, everyone knows Ryan.
because……
Now there are statues of him in almost every branch city and square in Black Dragon City.
Originally, there was only one statue in the main city, but after discussion in the parliament, Metternich proposed a suggestion that a large number of statues of Ryan should be built in Black Dragon City to resist the spread of evil god beliefs in Glory City.
He proposed an idea. The reason why the followers of the evil god spread their faith so quickly was because they used secret methods.
The second reason is that because the people in the Ice Ridge Wasteland have no worship or belief, they are easily brainwashed by an unfamiliar belief.
Finally, the parliament discussed it and felt it made sense.
But now that the problem has been found, we must also find a solution.
The solution proposed by Metternich was to artificially create a "leader belief" in Black Dragon City.
Let the people of the territory have something to believe in so that they are not easily shaken by the followers of evil gods.
And the city lord Ryan is the most suitable candidate.
The emergence of Black Dragon City has enabled a large number of civilians to have enough food, clothing, equality, and even a wealthy life.
After enjoying the various benefits of Black Dragon City, the refugees from other noble territories were all grateful.
Therefore, the spread of Metternich's concept of "leadership faith" is also easy for people to accept.
Under the deliberate propaganda and guidance of municipal officials, a kind of...national belief culture gradually took shape.
It was like chasing a star, and it was extremely fanatical. The people in the territory had a concept in their minds: it was because of Ryan that Black Dragon City existed; it was because of Black Dragon City that they had the wonderful life they had now.
The residents naturally supported Ryan, the elusive city lord, from the bottom of their hearts.
Moreover, every time a new city is built, there must be a statue of Ryan in the most central square of the city.
As the city expanded, more and more statues appeared and people gradually got used to them.
Children and old women may not remember the name of Prime Minister Ymir, but they will definitely remember Ryan's face and his name.
…
When Ryan entered the city, the people lined the streets to welcome him and gave him thunderous cheers.
He handed the captured vampire thief over to the city guard, then boarded a steam locomotive and headed towards the central city.
The area of Heilong City is now very large, and the city has built a relatively complete transportation system, with rail trains connecting various urban areas.
Not long after, Ryan returned to the core area of Black Dragon City.
After getting off the bus, he went to the City Hall alone without disturbing others.
The Prime Minister's secretary was Ymir's former personal maid. She looked at Ryan and bowed respectfully, wanting to greet him: "Lord of the City..."
Ryan smiled and waved, then quietly walked into the office.
In an elegantly decorated office, a beautiful figure is busy flipping through documents behind a desk.
Hearing the subtle sound of the door opening, Ymir naturally knew who came in. She looked up at the man holding the dessert box in his hand, and a gentle smile appeared on her pretty face.
She stood up and said, "I heard that you captured Lyudmila from the Red Devil Group?"
From the moment Ryan entered the city, the information had already reached the Prime Minister's office.
"Yes. I happened to encounter it while practicing in the west, and I solved it."
Ryan walked over and put the pastries in his hand on the table, then walked around and stood behind Ymir, put his arms around her slender waist, and kissed her on the side of her cheek.
Ymir could naturally feel the burning heat right behind her.
After not seeing each other for two months, thousands of words turned into a round of intimate whispers.
"Okay, this is still an office, don't do anything stupid..."
After a while, feeling the increasingly rude hands, Ymir broke free from Ryan's arms.
“…”
Ryan shrugged.
He knew that Ymir would definitely not let him mess around here, so he gave up.
At this time, Ymir looked down at her clothes, rolled her eyes at Ryan, and said angrily, "You, you are really rude..."
Only then did she realize that the hand that had been roaming around her body without any courtesy had quietly opened the silver buttons on her dress and untied the belt that bound her slender waist, exposing a large area of her snow-white flesh to the air.
While tidying up her slightly messy court dress, she asked, "How was your training this time?"
"It's about the same as expected. The Divine Strength Realm has been fully developed, and the Dou Qi has been condensed to the extreme that can be condensed at this stage..."
Ryan opened the box of pastries, took out a piece, and handed it over as if feeding a deer.
Perhaps because there was no one else in the office, or perhaps Ymir seemed to have gotten used to this kind of intimacy. She was still adjusting her skirt with her hands, but she stretched her neck and gently took a bite of the pastry with her mouth.
"Um……"
She made a thick nasal sound from her mouth and seemed to be enjoying this delicious dessert.
After hearing what Ryan said, she said, "Your speed of advancement to the extraordinary level is really frighteningly fast."
At this point, Ymir glanced at Ryan and said quietly, "When I was at the fourth level of the Transcendent Realm, it took me several years to stabilize my realm. I didn't expect that in just one year, you would reach the threshold of the fifth level again."
This is a royal family that has never lacked resources for cultivation since childhood. If it were someone else, it would be hard to say how long they would be stuck at the fourth level of transcendence.
"The [Condensing Qi into Gang] that Grandpa Andrew taught me has given me a lot of inspiration. I have now reached a very subtle level of control over my fighting spirit..."
Ryan had nothing to hide from Ymir.
At this time, he raised his hand, and ten thin lines emerged between his ten fingers.
Those thin threads fluttered in the air like willow branches, and the magical thing was that Ryan actually controlled the silk threads to pick up the pastries on the table remotely!
"you……"
Seeing this scene, even Ymir, who knew Ryan very well, was shocked and exclaimed: "It's only been two months, and you can actually do this?!"
She was very clear about the details of the secret technique [Condensing Qi into Gang], and she was also very clear about the difficulty of practicing this secret technique.
Her great-grandfather said it himself that he practiced hard for decades before he achieved the level of "controlling objects with Qi".
But I didn't expect that Ryan could do it this year?
But at this moment, a small accident happened.
The piece of cake seemed to be out of control and fell down.
Ryan shrugged and explained, "My fighting spirit is not yet condensed enough. I will probably have to break through to the fifth level of transcendence before I can do whatever I want. By then..."
When he said this, a sharp light flashed in his eyes.
But he didn't say anything about being invincible. Instead, he smiled wickedly and said, "By then, I should be able to beat you..."
"You really are..."
Ymir rolled her eyes at him in annoyance.
It was obvious that he understood that this guy was up to something bad when he said "I can beat him".
Maybe he wanted to satisfy some of his evil desires in bed?
…
"You have now reached the Great Divine Realm, and you should also start preparing for the fifth-order law condensation."
"yes."
“…”
At this time, Ymir seemed to have thought of something, and a smile appeared on her lips. She said meaningfully: "Kanosha has finished her work in Sid, and she should return to Black Dragon City in the next few days. She will be surprised to hear that your extraordinary realm has improved so quickly..."
Ryan: “…”
