Chapter 575: Andrea's Warning
Chapter 575: Andrea’s Warning
Using the Exploding Clothes Technique to strip Alfonso of all his equipment was to prevent those items from activating any resurrection effects.
Some of those excellent pieces of equipment had effects that allowed the wearer to avoid death once.
Naturally, the cautious Ling Zhan wasn’t going to miss any chance to eliminate Alfonso without risk of revival.
After executing Alfonso, Ling Zhan calmly walked off the stage.
Bang!!
“Damn it!”
Dos, watching this scene, couldn’t help but slam his fist onto the armrest of his chair.
His eyes were now filled with darkness.
Moments earlier, he was smiling with joy, but the situation had completely flipped.
This was classic hubris turning into grief.
The other fourth-tier powerhouses beside him had already fallen completely silent.
At that moment, they realized…
It seemed all their previous joy now looked utterly ridiculous.
It wasn’t just that they were laughing at Ling Zhan’s misfortune; it was also that they were laughing at their own side’s seeming victory.
Because no matter how many people their champions killed, unless they killed Ling Zhan, their entire operation would ultimately be considered a failure.
The whole point of organizing this event was to create a legitimate opportunity to kill Ling Zhan.
If not for this match, killing Ling Zhan on the front lines would be extremely difficult.
But now…
Ling Zhan’s strength truly exceeded everyone’s expectations.
Especially for those who had not personally witnessed Ling Zhan’s power—at this moment, they were all deeply worried.
“I said before, if you don’t target this man early, it’s already too late by the time you decide to go after him!”
“Back during the Demon Purge, I wanted to go there myself to kill him, but you all thought it wasn’t necessary, that it would be overkill.”
“Now, do you still think my intentions were excessive back then?”
Andrea crossed her arms, looking at her silent comrades, her expression cold.
Ever since the failure of that new recruit exchange match, the Empress of the Night had been contemplating how to make that man suffer until death.
To her, it wouldn’t be overkill, considering how he’d disgraced her.
During the later Demon Purge, she had wanted to go herself.
But Jiang Huo had stopped her, insisting she participate in targeting the fourth-tier powerhouses of the Dragon Kingdom instead.
In hindsight, that was a valuable chance to kill Ling Zhan.
But there’s no such thing as a remedy for regret.
Now Ling Zhan…
Had grown to the point where he was unmatched below the fourth tier.
And he possibly still had methods to kill fourth-tier powerhouses!
How could they fight him?
Hearing Andrea’s words, Karakto’s face darkened, and he forced a smile, “Empress of the Night, you’re still speaking too soon!”
“As you saw, Alfonso was capable of seriously injuring Ling Zhan. Even with ‘Temporal Rewind’, Alfonso could have won if he wasn’t careless.”
“Alfonso lost only because he was careless.”
“Besides, we still have a few prodigies left to fight!”
“Exactly!”
Dos, the Vice President of Bloodhammer Guild, nodded in agreement, “And our other successor is far stronger than Alfonso!”
“She will definitely kill Ling Zhan with ease!”
The successor Dos mentioned was a woman with a face that looked as if it had been stitched together—her name was ‘Agnes’.
Alfonso didn’t even dare raise his voice in front of her.
It was clear just how formidable this woman was!
And unless something unexpected happened…
She would very likely be the next President of Bloodhammer Guild.
“Alright, I’ve heard that excuse before, and yet you’re still saying it.”
“If that’s the case, let’s continue to watch.”
“But I must remind you all, if the plan fails, make sure you have an exit strategy!”
“Whether it’s to forcefully take down Ling Zhan or retreat entirely, decide now!”
Andrea shook her head.
In truth, she had lost all confidence.
“Andrea, is that guy really so powerful? Enough to make even you, a level 100 fourth-tier powerhouse, so wary?”
Tarina, who had been murmuring, couldn’t help but ask.
“Would you believe me if I said he almost defeated me?” Andrea retorted.
At these words.
Tarina shook her head, smiling, “You must be joking. That’s funny…”
“I’m not joking!” Andrea emphasized again.
Tarina looked at Andrea’s serious expression, and her smile slowly faded.
This…
He almost defeated Andrea?!
No way…
Is it really that shocking?
A non-specialist…
Almost defeated the Empress of the Night, a level 100 fourth-tier powerhouse?
This can’t be real!!
“And it was when he was only in his twenties!”
“He used some strange method to lower all my attributes to match his!”
“I couldn’t even use my skills, only my talents!”
“And even my talents were weakened due to the attribute suppression, making them ineffective against him!”
“More importantly… most of my equipment was destroyed by him, including a holy artifact that is still being repaired to this day, nearly shattered back then!”
Andrea spoke calmly, recounting some of the events from that battle.
Fortunately, no other fourth-tier powerhouses arrived back then!
If they had, she would have surely died!
After all, her attributes had all been lowered to a level in the twenties.
Listening to Andrea’s words, Tarina grew more and more serious.
Unbelievable…
Truly unbelievable!
Ling Zhan nearly killed Andrea!
And at level twenty-something!
If this got out…
Who the hell would believe it?
Perhaps it was because the truth was too shocking that Andrea hadn’t shared these stories until now.
Only after witnessing Ling Zhan’s power did she decide to speak up.
After all, at this point, they would surely believe her.
“Also…”
“You should be careful. If you find yourselves affected like me—where your attributes are forcibly lowered—think about whether your combat skills are strong enough!!”
“If they’re not, defeating this non-specialist in hand-to-hand combat is nothing but a pipe dream!”
Andrea reminded them again.
“This…”
The group exchanged uneasy glances.
Combat skills?!
Was she referring to fighting without any skills or talents, relying only on physical prowess?
That would be extremely difficult!
