Order-Freedom Chapter 10: Seeing the Burning Fang Again
I was so immersed in reading that five days passed by before I knew it.
During these five days, Zhang Yun read all the magic books compiled by Kalina and learned all the low-level and intermediate magic.
Advanced magic is difficult to understand, and the system does not allow Zhang Yun to cheat, so he only learned one, relatively useless water magic.
Water flower.
Summons a powerful stream of water that erupts from the ground, blooms like a flower, and then deals damage to enemies in the center.
In fact, it is quite useful, but Zhang Yun has too many heroes who can use water magic, and the power of water magic is weaker than any other magic, so in comparison, it seems useless.
"wipe!"
"How many days has it been?"
Zhang Yun put down the magic book, stood up from his seat, stretched, and couldn't help asking.
Liuli answered obediently: "Five days...right?"
“I didn’t look closely.”
"I've been reading carefully (I've been watching you carefully)."
"Well, never mind a few days. Anyway, I have practiced my skills to my heart's content, so it's time to take a break." Zhang Yun walked to the window and looked out at the snow-white city outside the palace. Many people were walking in the streets wearing cotton coats, and there were soldiers patrolling constantly.
"oh!"
"One more thing!"
"That void creature we let run away earlier, doesn't it know how to bring anyone back?"
…
The scene changed, and the void creature that had been deliberately let go by Zhang Yun and others was now moving through the forest. Behind it were densely packed void creatures, as well as a void lord that was twice its size and covered in black flames.
“Black hole!”
Ye Ling suddenly dropped from the sky, with several black flames flying out of his body. All of them turned into black holes that were too deep to look directly at, swallowing up those void creatures that had no time to brake.
"Awoo!" The Lord of Nothingness roared to the sky and ordered the group of void creatures to launch an attack and eliminate this suddenly appearing enemy.
Ye Ling waved his hand: "Black hole. Spread!"
In an instant, the summoned black holes suddenly grew larger, like inflated balloons, and "swallowed" all the void creatures that intended to bypass the black holes and rush towards themselves.
Ye Ling waved again: "Black hole. Spin!"
Following his instructions, the summoned black holes began to rotate, like windmills blown by the wind, generating a powerful suction force that sucked in all the void creatures that did not actively crash into the black holes.
“…”
Silently, all the void creatures were annihilated to death by the black hole, leaving only the last Lord of Nothingness. Its eyes glowed red and angry moans came from its cracked lips.
Ye Ling said he didn't want to waste time talking to it, so he used levitation to get into the air, creating a safe distance, and then used a big move that required five seconds to charge.
"Dark Gate!"
The same scene appeared again. A beam of black fire fell to the ground and turned into four black holes. They pulled and tore the Lord of Nothingness into pieces like a meat grinder, and finally swallowed a part of its body.
After finishing, Ye Ling landed back on the ground, his black cloak fluttering in the wind. Only his lips could be seen on his handsome face hidden by the hood.
"alright!"
"The fifth Lord of Nothingness!"
He raised his hand, holding an ancient ochre-colored compass. The needle on it pointed steadily to the east, without the slightest wavering.
"It seems that there is only one last Lord of Nothingness left?"
"Destroy it. The remaining group of void creatures are nothing. Zhang Yun should be able to eat them all..."
Ye Ling stared at the place where the Lord of Nothingness died. The smoke there dissipated and disappeared in the blink of an eye. It was impossible to tell that a battle had ever taken place there.
actually.
According to conventional judgment.
Zhang Yun’s ability is “devouring”.
These void creatures and void lords should be left to him so that he can devour them all, so that he can improve himself and his evolutionary abilities more quickly.
However, the void creatures directly ignore the "soul binding" when killing people. If Zhang Yun makes a mistake, he will die completely. Therefore, Ye Ling is a little worried about Zhang Yun's safety, so he took the initiative to help him clean up these monsters.
However, after killing three or four Lords of Nothingness in succession, Ye Ling figured out the strength of this group of void creatures and discovered that they were really weak.
They can basically only fight in close combat, cannot attack from a distance, and cannot fly. Occasionally there is a weird one that can fly and attack from a distance, but their strength is not that good.
In other words, as long as they can fly, they can be killed one by one with long-range attacks, and it is very easy for Zhang Yun to deal with them.
This seems like it can be left to him to handle?
With this idea in mind, Ye Ling bypassed those lone void creatures and instead specifically looked for the group of Void Lords, eliminating them first.
After all, although the Lords of Nothingness cannot fly and do not have any powerful long-range attacks, they are bound to the existence of the soul in the world. If Zhang Yun does not have his own "black hole power", he will not be able to kill the opponent at all.
If the opponent kills you, a hero, with one sword, you cannot be resurrected, and you die immediately... With this situation, Zhang Yun's mentality will definitely collapse when fighting them!
but.
What a coincidence.
The person killed by Ye Ling this time was the "messenger" that Zhang Yun had deliberately let go to attract reinforcements.
Now that the messenger has been killed, they have lost their source of intelligence and the void creatures have lost their leader. They can no longer be controlled and have no idea that they need to find Zhang Yun first.
If there are no void creatures attacking, where will Zhang Yun get the upgrade experience?
Good intentions led to bad consequences!
However, it is not Ye Ling’s fault. After all, he does not have the strange ability of the “system”, so he cannot figure out the true power of Zhang Yun and Liuli.
…
"Veronica, how's your patrol going lately? Have you found any traces of the Void Creatures?"
Zhang Yun walked to the rooftop of the palace. Veronica was standing on the edge of the rooftop, looking at the city in the distance. The Book of Divine Artifact transformed into a yellow nightingale, flying around him.
She turned around and said, "I set up several sensing arrays near the capital, but I didn't find any Void Creatures. It seems that they didn't come here... However, although I didn't find the group of Void Creatures, I did find someone that Lord Zhang Yun knew."
Zhang Yun asked, "Who?"
Veronica said calmly: "Scorching Fang!"
Zhang Yun said "hmm" in confusion, and then he understood. This guy should have left a few main believers who were hidden very deeply, and relied on their sacrifice to descend again to his own shadow.
And it must have come here to see me, to discuss the original deal, and to cooperate in fighting against the Outer Gods.
Zhang Yun thought about it and felt that Burning Fang should have agreed to cooperate. After all, it honestly pushed all its believers out to die without any resistance. It was simply a model player who gave away heads.
But the bird Quinn did not follow the rules. He rebelled on his own and took advantage of the "door" opened during the battle in the royal capital to pull himself in.
So!
Seems like there's nothing wrong with seeing it?
After thinking about it, Zhang Yun said, "Come on, Veronica, take me to find it. Just use teleportation!"
He turned around and said, "Liuli, come with me. The three of us will be enough. You don't need to call anyone else."
"Okay, Master Zhang Yun."
"Yes, Brother Zhang Yun."
The teleportation was very efficient. In the blink of an eye, the three of them arrived at an abandoned town outside the city. Burning Fang sat casually on the roof of a wooden house, looking at Zhang Yun and others who suddenly appeared without any surprise.
"Burning Fang, how long have you been waiting here?" Zhang Yun walked forward and greeted him naturally, as if he were an acquaintance.
After all, this Burning Fang was quite to his liking, so there was no need to speak ill of it or pretend to be indifferent.
Burning Fang jumped down from the roof: "Not sure, it should be ten days, maybe twenty days?"
It said, "Alas, I was defeated and sent back to the ancient battlefield not long ago. I dare not enter the capital... Fortunately, you found me here, otherwise I don't know how much time I would have wasted."
Zhang Yun touched her nose and said, "Fortunately, Veronica took the initiative to ask to go out of the city for inspection, otherwise you might not be able to see me even if you waited for dozens of days..."
Burning Fang: "Hmm?"
Zhang Yun coughed twice: "It's okay, tell me, did you come to me to continue discussing cooperation with me?"
Burning Fang nodded and said, "Well, all of us in Ajid have unanimously decided to cooperate with you and follow your orders..."
"Quinn, it's just that its personality is different from ours. It's too serious, so it suddenly attacked you and didn't tell us its plan..."
Zhang Yun waved her hand: "No need to explain, I know that the bird didn't bring anyone else with it when it flew here, it was obviously its own idea."
and.
I saw it from Veronica's perspective at the time, too.
Most of you ancient evil gods did not resist, only a few of you were stubborn and wanted to fight Veronica head-on, but you were still rushed back to the ancient battlefield by Veronica's super-level magic.
Burning Fang asked, "What is your decision?"
Zhang Yun touched his nose and asked, "Do you know what's going on outside? What are the movements of the Outer Gods? What are the appearances of the Void Creatures?"
Burning Fang was confused: "What?"
Zhang Yun explained: "Let me put it simply, after you were beaten back to the ancient battlefield, something went wrong."
"Now the Outer Gods have discovered that there is something wrong with this world, mainly with me... and they were planning to send people to investigate, but suddenly a group of monsters from another world appeared and held the Outer Gods back, so the Outer Gods never showed up."
"But this group of monsters not only attacks the Outer Gods, but also treats humans, inheritors, you and me, and all other living things as enemies. They attack everything and eat any energy body."
"And they have the ability to resurrect. They can't be killed directly. Some special methods are needed, but I haven't figured out the specific details yet."
Burning Fang frowned: "Did this happen?"
Damn it!
Isn’t it enough for Zhang Yun to be resurrected?
Are they actually going to release new undead monsters into our little world?
And it sounds like there are quite a lot of these things, not only in our world, but other worlds controlled by the outer gods have also been invaded?
Zhang Yun said: "This is just a general situation. I don't know the details. The main reason is that I have been training in the capital recently and have no time to study this group of enemies."
Burning Fang: "..."
No, big brother, you are so strong, why do you still need to practice?
Why not spend some time to investigate the details of these enemies?
Aren’t you afraid that they might be as troublesome as you?
Zhang Yun saw Burning Fang's silence and explained, "However, although I didn't investigate personally, I entrusted the Ocean Goddess to help check the details of those monsters, especially to steal information from other Outer Gods to see what's going on with those high-level void creatures that are immortal."
Burning Fang was a little confused: "Sea Goddess Siren?"
Zhang Yun nodded: "Yes, she is also my...partner. I don't want to be wiped out by the Outer Gods because of my identity as the inheritor, and she wants to restore order in the world, so she fights against other Outer Gods."
Burning Fang: “?”
Zhang Yun continued, "You don't need to care about her thoughts. They have nothing to do with you Ancient Evil Gods anyway... No, it should be said that her thoughts are very beneficial to you Ancient Evil Gods. You should have had the opportunity to become allies."
"It's a pity that you, the Ancient Evil God, don't take humans seriously at all, and won't allow the inheritors to obtain the same status as you, so she doesn't want to cooperate with you completely."
Burning Fang didn't react: "What do you mean?"
Zhang Yun said: "What I mean is, don't kill people, don't treat the inheritors as enemies, and don't mess around. It would be best if you could lead everyone to practice and fight against the foreign gods together. The Ocean Goddess would have released you a long time ago."
Burning Fang: "..."
Zhang Yun said, "Anyway, the past is over. Even if we kill all of you now, we can't restore what you have destroyed... So you should do your best now, listen to orders, don't mess around, fight against the Outer Gods together, and liberate this world."
"I can release you and give you space to survive on this land."
“But if you are stubborn and still want to be high and mighty, killing and doing things recklessly, or even betraying us, then I will not give you a chance.”
"By the time……"
"It's not as easy as shutting down the ancient battlefield!"
"Instead, I will kill you directly and make you disappear from this world forever, never to appear again."
When Zhang Yun threatened, Liuli sensed the murderous intent in his heart, so he tacitly released the power of the void, which turned into an invisible whip and gently whipped the back of Burning Fang.
"!!!"
What's this!??
What the hell!?
Being lightly touched by the power of the void, endless fear arose in the arrogant heart of Burning Fang, just like an ant facing a huge evil dragon that is a hundred meters long. It is impossible to look directly at it, and it is indescribable. Only the final despair is left.
At this moment, Burning Fang clearly realized that the existence that "touched" him with this unknown force was definitely a terrifying existence that was dozens of times more powerful than himself, and even several times more powerful than his master Ajid.
As long as she wanted to kill herself, she could definitely kill herself, and there was no chance of resurrection for herself.
This is even more terrifying than the method Zhang Yun used to kill Quinn.
Also faster.
Burning Fang swallowed his saliva: "I...I know!"
"I will definitely convey your meaning to the other members of our kind. Whether you are willing to release us or not, they will never do anything to disobey you and will completely obey your orders!"
"Including my master Ajith, he will definitely obey you and fight against those foreign gods!"
Zhang Yun: “?”
What’s going on?
Why did this boy's attitude suddenly become so respectful?
Even dragging his own master into the water?
