471: Continuous attacks
Chapter 470: Consecutive Blows
Ten minutes later, Dick and Isurna arrived at the crime scene.
The originally magnificent Investigation Bureau reception hall had been blown into ruins, filled with black smoke, and even the ground had several extremely deep cracks.
Isurna was a little surprised, after all, the building materials here were not ordinary, all using various high-grade composite magic stones.
Such terrifying power was definitely not what a Magical Vehicle should have; it was more like a magic bomb weighing tens of tons!
Apricot Lilli must have added something, otherwise, even a military pickup truck would probably have difficulty crashing through the Investigation Bureau's gate.
This was also at Dick's instruction; he wanted Apricot Lilli to act high-profile.
Although Ivan, who had awakened the Blacksmith's destiny, was not as talented as Apricot Lilli, he could develop various mysterious magic tools.
The previous Soul Cluster Device was an example; Ivan could greatly threaten the girls and had to be eliminated as early as possible!
At the same time, Ivan's death could indirectly increase Dick's status, killing two birds with one stone.
Just as Luca III said, Superville's national destiny was prosperous, and it was full of talents, especially under the influence of uncertain fate!
Matt, An Lei, Ivan... one after another, talents who awakened the Hero's destiny emerged.
This generation of the Superville Empire was far stronger than the Superville Empire of the past ninety-nine generations!
In response to the many variables, Dick had to prepare accordingly, lest Luca III truly unify the continent.
At this time, the fire had been extinguished, several warning barriers were set up around, and a dozen on-duty Investigating Officers were receiving emergency treatment.
Since this was in the Royal Capital's Inner City, no matter what accident occurred, it could receive a rapid response from the relevant departments.
"Strange," Isurna squatted down, picked up a rune fragment, and asked in confusion, "Why did all the magic devices around the Investigation Bureau fail..."
"After all, she's called the Divine Machine Witch, isn't she?"
Hearing this, Isurna sighed helplessly. She knew what Dick meant; magic devices below God-rank were almost equivalent to nothing in front of Apricot Lilli.
Originally, Ivan was highly anticipated. As a similarly gifted Blacksmith, he Matt have been able to strongly counter Apricot Lilli.
However, reality was cruel. Ivan, who was still lively in the Royal Palace not long ago, was assassinated by Apricot Lilli in the blink of an eye.
"Indeed, all the fully automatic magic protection devices on Master Ivan also failed..."
Dick pried a square magic device from Ivan's charred body fragments and shook his head, "For example, this shield generator, its magic core was destroyed, completely scrapped."
Isurna felt a sense of powerlessness; Apricot Lilli's methods were too outrageous.
Making magic devices fail directly... she couldn't understand the principle at all, it was almost like a miracle.
"Dick, can we... truly catch her?"
Hearing Isurna's heartfelt question, Dick did not answer directly, because he could not lie.
"No one can predict the future, but I will definitely do my best."
"Mm, I believe you!"
Isurna was very satisfied with Dick's answer, turned around, and continued to survey the scene, intending to look for more clues about Apricot Lilli.
Meanwhile, in the indoor training ground of the Superville border military camp.
Jack lay on the cold anti-magic stone ground, his face ashen, his eyes staring blankly at the ceiling.
His entire body was covered in bruises, sword wounds, burns... but compared to the physical pain, the mental suffering was even more tormenting.
After Dick and Isurna left, Jack and Xiao Nai sparred a total of more than a dozen times, and he was always completely dominated.
His flashy Ancient God Mind Flow was completely vulnerable under Xiao Nai's fists and feet that broke through all techniques with pure force.
Not only that, after losing to Xiao Nai, Jack, in order to regain his confidence, successively challenged Mina, Alice, Cecilia...
The result was without suspense; the more Jack fought, the more despairing he became, the more he collapsed. The more he fought, the more he doubted life.
As long as Mina stood still and raised her shield, he couldn't break through until he was exhausted, and she would then send him flying with a shield bash...
Alice was even more exaggerated, conjuring various high-power magic spells with ease, demonstrating what ultimate firepower coverage meant...
As for Cecilia, Jack didn't even see her before a dagger was pressed against his throat; he lost in the speed he was most proud of...
Leon was another matter; an Elf who was almost two hundred years old and a Level 69 Swordsman prodigy. It was reasonable that he couldn't beat him.
But what about the girls who were also from the Amyria Empire?
Jack remembered clearly that just a few months ago, everyone started at roughly the same point, and he was even at a higher level.
How could they go to the Eternal Frost Forest and not only all be around Level 50, but also have terrifying combat power, not just useless level-grinders?
The more Jack thought, the more depressed he became. The blows he had suffered these past few days were too numerous, and he was almost suffocating.
If he didn't regain some confidence, Jack had no doubt that he would completely go mad.
"Beyoncé Milaine... go find that female Orc from the Li Huo Rabbit Clan, she's not even Level 40 yet..."
Recalling Dick's encouraging words today, Jack cheered up again, intending to go and spar with Beyonce.
Jack desperately wanted to win one match, just one would be fine; he yearned to prove that he was not the weakest prodigy.
"Good eyes, I like men who yearn for victory like you!"
Suddenly, a rough voice came from the training ground entrance.
Jack looked over following the sound and saw a muscular man completely wrapped in bandages. He seemed to be severely injured, with blood still oozing from many places on his body.
"You are..."
"Matt Krumm, a man determined to become a God of War!"
Hearing this, Jack just gave a polite greeting, then packed his things and prepared to leave.
He had only been here for a few days and didn't know Matt, just seeing him as a passionate Superville soldier.
"Wait," Matt called out to Jack, his voice filled with excitement, "Let's have a showdown between real men!"
"But you..."
Looking at Matt's appearance of being severely injured and not yet recovered, Jack felt a little soft-hearted, worried that he Matt accidentally kill him later.
Clang!
However, Matt directly slammed the training ground door shut, locked it, and even crumpled the key into a small ball and threw it aside.
