Chapter 273: Chapter 273: Raid_1

As evening approached, everything appeared normal in the base when Fu Qian met with Yuan Shan and the others.

Yet, one could keenly sense a thread of tension brewing beneath the seemingly ordinary atmosphere.

It seemed Yuan Shan had given specific instructions, as the old man at the gate did not give Fu Qian a hard time, confirming his identity and letting him in directly.

Arriving at Yuan Shan’s office, she and Logan had been waiting there early.

When it came to looks, Logan was significantly lacking, Fu Qian thought as he glanced at Logan seated with dignity.

Compared to Yuan Shan beside him, although he was more powerful, he still fell short in terms of outward charisma.

“You’re here.”

As Fu Qian entered, Yuan Shan greeted him with a slight nod.

“Is it really just the three of us?”

Fu Qian didn’t beat around the bush and found a seat to sit down.

Logan clearly disliked Fu Qian’s manner, keeping his eyes and mind inward since Fu Qian walked in without giving him a moment’s attention.

“For this kind of battle, those below a Demigod are nearly useless.”

Yuan Shan revealed a complex smile.

“I will arrange for the others to stay on the periphery, mainly to maintain order.”

“Understood.”

Fu Qian did not say much else.

“When do we start the action?”

“After dark.”

This time, Logan answered in a low voice without waiting for Yuan Shan.

After dark?

Fu Qian looked up at the window, the sun was just a sliver left.

“Is there a special reason for that?”

He turned back to Yuan Shan.

“Yes.”

As expected, Yuan Shan nodded.

“Second Phase entities are called Divine Envoys because at this level, they can establish special connections with conceptual entities and receive their favor and blessings, sometimes even allowing them to briefly descend upon them.

“Based on your description and observations over the last couple of days, Ariel’s power seems to be related to light or the sun, hence we’ve chosen to act after dark.”

There was such a consideration? Wouldn’t midnight be even better then?

This one really can’t wait even for a moment!

Fu Qian marveled inwardly but offered no critique.

After merely another ten minutes, Logan stood up and once again brought out that fierce-looking mask.

From this angle, one could see inside the mask, its uneven surface stained with blotches that resembled dark red bloodstains.

The twisting tentacles around the edges trailed all the way to the mouth area, where they finally twirled and entwined together.

Taking a deep breath, Logan lifted the mask and put it on his face.

Almost instantly, a heart-stirring song in the form of invisible ripples, swept through the entire space.

The embedded wails within the song scattered one’s thoughts, making it feel like countless tiny insects were crawling in one’s head.

Standing here was exaggerated enough, the impact on Logan must only be even greater.

Fu Qian watched the irritable old man intently.

Even as a Quasi-Divine Envoy, Logan seemed slightly dazed after putting on the mask, but fortunately, he quickly adjusted.

On the other hand, this wasn’t necessarily a bad thing.

If the adverse effects were so significant, then the corresponding shielding effect must be of the same caliber. No wonder he was so confident about battling above his level.

Putting on the mask now was probably to acclimate in advance.

After all, when it really came down to fighting, such rash action would only give the enemy a chance to slap you dead.

“Let’s go.”

In Yuan Shan’s solemn gaze, Logan finally stabilized his mental state and said in a hoarse voice.

Interestingly, perhaps influenced by the mask, his voice had a special rhythm to it, like reciting poetry.

“Let’s go.”

At Yuan Shan’s words, Fu Qian relaxed and nodded to her.

…

It didn’t take long for the trio to arrive outside Ariel’s manor.

Yuan Shan’s people had confirmed that the target had been home all day and hadn’t gone out.

Under the cover of night, everything inside appeared normal.

After quietly scanning the area, Logan didn’t speak; he took the lead and jumped in.

The moment he landed, golden-red patterns rapidly spread across his body, and the upper half of his clothes disintegrated into ash.

At the same time, four additional arms stretched out from under his ribs in every direction.

All of this happened in complete silence.

The next moment, Logan’s body turned into a streak of light, colliding with the corner of the mansion at an inconceivable speed.

This was the epitome of a top-tier bruiser!

Fu Qian watched with admiration, following the plan they had made earlier, he and Yuan Shan flanked from a distance.

Amidst the screams of the manor’s servants, a brilliantly bright torchlight appeared in his perception, followed by shaking.

Boom!

The next moment, Logan’s body burst out from the other side of the building, relentlessly chasing after a familiar figure.

Ariel, whom they hadn’t seen for days, now had one shoulder completely collapsed, and a huge gash was torn across his chest, from which he spat out a mouthful of white-hot liquid.

Ariel must have been in a state where he was concealing his presence and couldn’t evade in time when he sensed Logan’s ambush, consequently suffering a great disadvantage in the hurried process.

It had to be said that although Logan’s strategy was simple and crude, it was still quite effective—charging in with full force for a surprise attack.

But, after all, an opponent at the Second Phase Divine Envoy level couldn’t compare with Logan’s physical prowess, specialized in physical combat, yet their vitality was also extremely strong.

After dodging Logan’s subsequent pursuit, Ariel’s body shone with a brilliant white light, quickly becoming ethereal.

Limbs, joints, torso…

In the blink of an eye, Ariel’s body turned into clusters of blinding balls of light which overlapped and connected with each other, forming a somewhat bloated figure.

His head transformed into a flaming golden fire, with faint, ghostly features floating above it.

The next instant, dense golden patterns emerged on his body.

[SAN Points decrease by 1]

Even at such a distance and with mental preparation, upon seeing these patterns, Fu Qian still felt his mind sway and lost a point of SAN Points.

Logan, who was facing it up close, would have received an even greater impact, but his actions showed no hesitation.

Taking advantage of the time Ariel took to transform into his Mythical Form, Logan once again caught up to him.

The Siren’s Tears Veil was truly terrifying!

With ample preparation, Ariel’s counterattack was rendered totally ineffective.

Fu Qian watched on, clicking his tongue in admiration.

Logan’s six arms swung in unison, their crevices becoming increasingly reddened, and using the surging divine power, he was actually able to directly touch Ariel’s body which had already become ethereal.

The next instant, a large chunk was torn from Ariel’s body.

It had to be said that with prior preparation and protected by artifacts, the slight gap in their levels was bridged, and Logan now had an absolute advantage.

Fu Qian could even feel that Yuan Shan beside him was eager to make a move.

However, at that moment, boundless light erupted from Ariel’s shattered body.

A tremendous sea formed of light that seemed able to dispel all darkness, engulfing everything around it.
