Chapter 327: Goodbye, Mother
Chapter 327: Goodbye, Mother
The young masters and young ladies of the Capital City were going crazy.
Lu Ran was having the time of his life!
He ruthlessly exploited the working class, filling his belly with their essence.
For others, slaying demons was about reducing threats and accumulating merits.
But for Lu Ran,
The dead demons were all vibrant and lively spirits!
The central square, already well-connected, was now illuminated by the radiant glow of the Radiant Fire Cage, painting the bodies of the demons and humans with dazzling colors.
With such brilliance, how could it not attract demons to fight?
Lu Ran even used his hidden earpiece to inform the Moon Gazing squads in the nearby streets:
"Don't hold back, let the demons come to us!"
The top students of Capital University were genuinely dedicated to bringing warmth to the countryside, not just for show.
Although Lu Ran wasn't a leader at the Divine Citizen Bureau, within Rain Alley City, Lu Tianjiao's prestige was through the roof!
Saying that he could command a hundred responses with a single call was not an exaggeration.
Moreover, the Command Center had also issued orders, requiring all forces to cooperate with Lu Tianjiao's operations.
Thus, the pressure on the Moon Gazing teams suddenly lessened!
They continued to fight, but they would let the demons be drawn to the square and no longer pursue or block them.
Lu Ran was even more delighted~
Layer upon layer of spirits surged towards him, filling his vision.
In Lu Ran's mind, the Soul-tearing Devil Sculpture of the Soul Shattering Demon vibrated again.
"Tsk, it's advanced again."
Lu Ran muttered to himself, the Soul-tearing Devil Sculpture had advanced to the Fifth Stage of the River Realm!
Unfortunately, the Soul Shattering Demon clan didn't have any ultimate techniques, and there were no more evil spells to learn after the River Realm.
It was on par with the Evil Dog clan.
Just as excellent as the Immortal Sheep faction~
If the Soul-tearing Devil Sculpture advanced to the River Realm, Lu Ran could create Soul Shattering Demon minions.
But Lu Ran already had powerful servants like the Crimson Paper Figure, Night Charm, and the Ghost General.
Summoning a Soul Shattering Demon didn't seem to be of much use?
Hmm, maybe he could lend it to the Ghost General for a ride?
Riding a horse and riding a bull,
There wasn't much difference!
The greater significance of cultivating the evil sculpture and raising its rank was the improvement of related evil spells.
This was what Lu Ran needed the most!
Common demons like the Mist Phantom, Shadow Eye Ghost, and Blood Plague Dog were almost ready.
Lu Ran could activate them at any time.
But he didn't.
In the Mist Realm, Lu Ran could activate one evil demon sculpture.
He chose the Evil Dog.
In the Stream Realm, Lu Ran could activate two evil demon sculptures.
He chose the Soul Shattering Demon and the Dark Lantern.
In the River Realm, the activation slots increased to five.
Lu Ran chose the Night Charm, Crimson Paper Figure, Ghost General, and the Sinful Mirror Demon.
And next month, during his training, Lu Ran was about to activate the Evil Sculpture · Jade-faced Snake!
Now, Lu Ran had reached the River Realm.
The activation slots for evil sculptures increased by eight!
Lu Ran wasn't in a hurry to use them.
With so many evil spells from the aforementioned evil sculptures, Lu Ran had enough to study and integrate them for a long time.
Once he obtained the Jade-faced Snake, equipped with the Purification Technique, his set of techniques would be nearly invincible from all angles.
The next step in his development,
Could be appropriately adjusted to complete the configuration of his servant team.
Ever since the last time, when Lu Ran brought the Night Charm and the Ghost General on a mission, he realized a serious problem!
Not all demons could keep up with the Night Charm's pace!
Lu Ran still remembered the massive Ghost General, crouching pitifully by the lake like a 300-kilogram baby.
All that prestige and dignity,
Were shattered by the Night Charm!
Of course, the main reason was that the Ghost General didn't have a mount.
If the Night Charm was the standard for the servant team, then they needed to be carefully selected.
The Savage Succubus was an absolute powerhouse!
Niu Zhengzheng, with his formidable strength, had also fought the Savage Succubus for a long time, eventually defeating her with his human intelligence.
So, in the servant team, "Great Chang Ying" could take up a position.
The Silken Shadow was also excellent.
Sister Silken Shadow's fiery red lips were a disaster for the country and the people.
Not only was she beautiful, but she was also ruthless and heartless!
Wearing a sexy, tattered red dress, she stood there with unwavering stability!
The Heaven Lock Demon could also be considered.
After all, Lu Ran still dreamed of having eight hands.
As for the already prepared Straw Demon, Ghost Moon Fox, and Bamboo Wood Demon, Lu Ran wasn't too keen on activating them.
On this night, the Evil Spear Emperor, a possible invading demon, also made it onto Lu Ran's servant team shortlist.
The Evil Spear Emperor was no joke!
With maxed-out defense and raining spears,
The key was that he was a humanoid demon with exceptional intelligence!
It was said that his intellect was unmatched by humanoid beings like the Night Charm and the Ghost General.
It made sense.
As the arch-enemy of First Rank Gods, all aspects should be top-notch.
From this perspective, the Evil Spear Emperor could not only be a servant but also lead the servant team.
Lu Ran pondered while crazily devouring various demon spirits.
Unfortunately, people couldn't see what was happening in another dimension.
They had no idea how much fun Lu Ran was having!
If the Forgetful Spring Follower Li Ruoyin was here, she would probably grab her copper coin string and fight Lu Ran for the demons.
"Phew~"
Lu Ran exhaled lightly, shaking the Eight Extremes Saber in his hand.
Looking around, corpses were everywhere.
Demons from all directions converged towards the square, and naturally, blood flowed like a river.
"Dark Lantern, Xiao Yuansi," Guan Yiren suddenly spoke.
In the night sky, several long swords deliberately avoided the four Dark Lanterns.
"I'll do it!" Qiao Yuansi hurriedly said.
The Lantern Flower Sect and the Dark Lantern clan were arch-enemies!
It was evident that the team's coordination was excellent, and they had moved beyond the level of mere survival.
The Capital City team was not only killing enemies but also sharing resources!
This was something that Deng Tian and the others couldn't compare to, as they were still at the resistance level.
"Bro, watch me!"
Qiao Yuansi said as he summoned a Mystic Fire Cage and sent it flying into the night sky.
The only flaw was that this Eight-faced Lantern's flight speed was a bit slow.
This was one of the few shortcomings of the Lantern Flower Sect—their lack of offensive capabilities.
But aside from that, Qiao Yuansi could do almost everything!
Illumination, purification, defense, marking, healing, and control.
Lantern Flower believers were the kings of support!
Qiao Yuansi's place in the small team wasn't just because of her family background.
Wang Ling shouted loudly, "Command, my action speed is a bit slow. Okay."
Slow,
was because of the Dark Lantern Spell·Yin Fire Cage, which would hinder the actions of enemies exposed to its glow.
Okay,
was because of the Lantern Flower Divine Technique·Holy Fire Cage!
Its glow could purify an area, eliminating all abnormal states within the region.
Even the smoke released by the Dark Lanterns was forcefully dispersed by the glow!
The Dark Lantern clan was completely suppressed, leaving them nowhere to hide.
As a River Realm believer, Qiao Yuansi could possess three lanterns at once.
In the night sky, there was the Radiant Fire Cage that marked living beings.
There was also the Holy Fire Cage that flew towards Wang Ling, purifying the area.
And there was an Eight-faced Lantern flying straight towards the group of Dark Lanterns.
Qiao Yuansi's heart stirred!
The Basic Divine Technique·Marvelous Fire Cage changed its nature, transforming into the Offensive Divine Technique·Blazing Fire Cage!
"Boom!"
The Blazing Fire Cage exploded with a dazzling display of fireworks.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The Dark Lanterns set off a chain reaction, exploding one after another.
Qiao Yuansi immediately turned her head and looked at Lu Ran, her eyes sparkling.
Over there, Lu Ran covered the Shadow Eye Ghost's mouth with one hand to prevent it from spitting poison.
With the Eight Extremes Saber in his hand, he swiftly sliced its neck.
The dried-up corpse fell to the ground, and Lu Ran also gave Xiao Yuansi a thumbs-up.
"Hehe~" Qiao Yuansi's eyes curved into two beautiful crescent moons.
If the Capital City was hell difficulty,
then Rain Alley City was a beginner's village.
What was even more terrifying was that in this beginner's village, there were max-leveled big shots by her side, and divine weapons protecting them.
Qiao Jin knew that her mindset was wrong.
But she couldn't help it!
Beside her brother, she hardly felt any sense of crisis.
Qiao Yuansi had even fallen in love with this place, or more precisely, with the feeling of being by Lu Ran's side.
Mom didn't belong to her alone.
Mom belonged to Sword One, to Sword Tianque, to the Capital City.
But her brother,
seemed like he could be hers!
"Brother Ran!" Niu Zhengzheng laughed heartily, "Weren't you saying that Rain Alley would educate every arrogant person?
It's almost 11 o'clock."
Guan Yiren's stern voice rang out, icy cold: "Shut up!"
Niu Zhengzheng's laughter abruptly stopped: "Uh."
But Lu Ran smiled.
He knew that Niu Zhengzheng had no ill intentions.
After all, everyone was wearing cameras, and Niu Zhengzheng's words were only bringing trouble upon himself.
So, this brute was straightforward and outspoken.
Moreover, after killing for a few hours, his battle intent was boiling, his emotions were high, and he spoke without thinking.
"Eh?" Qiao Yuansi suddenly exclaimed.
Everyone looked in the direction she was pointing, following her small hand, and then looked up at the night sky.
"Ah?!" Wang Ling's whole body shivered, his eyes shining!
What did he see?
Evil Demon·Evil Spear Emperor?!
This rare evil demon was even uncommon in the Capital City!
Was it a coincidence?
Or was it an advance party?
Was the Evil Spear Emperor's clan really going to invade Rain Alley?
The five cameras simultaneously focused on the night sky, stunning countless people in Great Xia.
The comments surged like a flood:
"Holy sht, so cool? Why him?"
"It's an evil demon, and it dares to call itself an emperor. Don't be a bstard, kill its mother!"
"Kill it, General Ran! From now on, you're Emperor Ran!"
"General Ran, smash the cup as a signal! Let's rebel!"
Lu Ran was unaware of the commotion in the live stream, as his attention was now fully on the Evil Spear Emperor.
The Evil Spear Emperor looked like a young man, quite handsome.
He had a pair of pure black eyes, with no whites, eerie and chilling.
He held a golden long spear, wore a luxurious black and gold brocade robe, had his long hair tied up, and wore a dark gold crown.
His noble aura was overwhelming!
His domineering presence was intimidating!
Evil Demon Clan·Evil Spear Emperor!
"Brother Ran, Command!" Wang Ling quickly said, "Can I..."
"Go, go! Brother, you go take the Skeleton's position." Qiao Yuansi directly ordered.
Wang Ling didn't say another word and thrust his spear towards the night sky!
Divine Technique·Cloud-cutting Spear Art!
"Clang! Clang! Clang!"
Countless spears transformed into a fierce torrent, piercing towards the night sky.
"Hmph." The Evil Spear Emperor coldly snorted, stepping on a black cloud, and flying horizontally.
Evil Spell·Evil Cloud Fogstep!
At the same time, he pointed with his golden spear.
A mass of dark clouds gathered in the night sky, churning violently.
Countless black mists formed long spears, emerging from the clouds with their tips hanging over everyone's heads.
It made people's scalps tingle!
Evil Spell·Evil Cloud Spear Art!
This was the evil spell that the Evil Spear Emperor's clan was compatible with in the River Realm·Third Stage.
And because the black clouds spread and flowed unpredictably, it was difficult to determine at first glance whether this spell was River-grade or Stream-grade!
Qiao Yuansi's face changed: "Dodge, quick, dodge..."
A figure arrived with the mist, flashing past.
Before Qiao Yuansi could finish speaking, she was already in Lu Ran's arms, teleporting to the edge of the square.
In an instant, the two of them left the area covered by the dark clouds.
She reached out and touched her abdomen, gripping her brother's arm.
Qiao Yuansi never cursed.
But at this moment, her heart roared:
What the fck! This is fcking safety! Goodbye, Mom.
Goodbye, Immortal Scenic Garden.
From now on, I'm a Rain Alley person.
During the double period, friends, please give more monthly votes, thank you!
