Chapter 277: Kill and Steal
The old man’s s.p.a.ce magic was suppressed by the Swamp Hydra.
Even fire magic was no match for it.
Now, he wanted to fly into the sky and use the advantage of the airs.p.a.ce to create a fighter jet, but he was still suppressed.
Although the Swamp Hydra’s body was huge, it was extremely fast under the support of the wings of fire and wind.
The huge snake’s body contracted slightly and it shot out like a sharp arrow.
The wind and fire wings with a 100-meter wingspan were just buffs, not real wings.
The Swamp Hydra stretched its body in the sky to its heart’s content. Under the instinct of the snake-like creature, it coiled around the old man with a swish.
Then, nine heads circled over, like a bouquet holding the old man in the middle.
The nine heads opened their b.l.o.o.d.y mouth and revealed their sharp fangs.
“No, you can’t kill me!
“I’m a fourth-level Beastmaster specially hired by the city lord. I’m young master Morgan’s teacher. If you kill me, you can’t leave Sky City.”
“You came to Sky City to ask for help, right?
“I can see that your female companion is injured.
“Let me go, and I’ll help you get her healed. I know many important people in the city.
“Even the bishop of the Church of Light can do it.”
The old man finally realized his fear and began to beg for mercy.
Locke was currently fighting with Hathaway.
Hathaway, who had tasted the sweetness, regrouped and rode on Locke’s body, crazily twisting her waist.
She was like a beautiful snake.
At this moment, Locke was not in the mood to care about the old man’s life or death.
He originally came to empty city to help Hathaway detoxify, but looking at Hathaway’s current condition, the poison did not seem to be very powerful.
If the old man did not mention Hathaway, Locke might have let him go.
However, when he mentioned Hathaway and said that Hathaway was injured, the old man had sentenced himself to death.
He knew that Locke came to Sky City to ask for help, but he still deliberately instigated Morgan to look for trouble.
If Locke did not kill such a villain, he would be letting himself down.
The nine-headed swamp monster sensed Locke’s intentions and no longer hesitated.
Nine gigantic snake heads pounced down from the sky. With a single bite, half of the old man’s body was torn apart.
With the host dead, the Twin-headed Chimera’s figure appeared.
Although it was also a rare mature stage Battle Beast that was close to tier 5, under the chaotic attacks of the nine-headed Swamp Hydra, there was no room for it to retaliate.
Along with mournful screams, a shower of stinky blood rained down.
Bang!
A huge blue snake head fell to the ground, with two horns on its head.
Si, si!
A huge black snake stuck its head out from the clouds, bit the blue snake head, stretched its neck and swallowed hard.
Soon, the old man and the Twin-headed Chimera were eaten clean.
As a fourth-tier Beastmaster, he was also a well-known figure in Cloud City.
However, he was killed by a young boy who had just entered the city.
Other than a rain of blood, there was nothing left.
From the beginning to the end, Locke did not even know the name of the old man.
“Oh my G.o.d, he really killed him.”
“He dared to kill the people of the castellan’s mansion, he’s dead for sure!”
“I heard that young castellan Morgan was also injured by him yesterday.”
“I also heard that he injured was in ‘there’. When he was sent to the church, ‘there’ had completely rotted away. His life was saved, but his ‘thing’ was cut off.”
“Si! he even dare to injure young master Morgan. How audacious.”
“Could it be that he doesn’t know that young master Morgan is the only son of City Lord Reid? City Lord Reid is a fifth tier Beastmaster!”
“That’s right. I’ve seen this youth before. Although his appearance is extraordinary, he’s only fifteen or sixteen years old.”
“Even if his luck is heaven-defying and he obtained a top-grade Battle Beast, he’s lucky enough to have an old man as his opponent. He’s definitely not a match for City Lord Reid.”
“That’s right. City Lord Reid’s raging flame lion is a rare light-type Battle Beast. Even in the entire Church of Light, it’s a top-grade Battle Beast.”
“Sigh, do you think that our Cloud City will be peaceful in the future if young master Morgan’s thing is cut off?”
“No matter who marries a beautiful daughter-in-law, they don’t have to worry about being targeted by young master Morgan. They don’t have to worry about being kidnapped by Morgan and be ruined by him.”
“If that’s the case, this young man can be considered to have eliminated the evil in our Cloud City.”
“Shut up! Be careful of what comes out of your mouth.”
The surrounding people witnessed the fierce battle and discussed animatedly.
Some rushed to the city lord’s mansion to report the outcome while others secretly cursed the old man for dying well.
Even the bishop of the Church of Light was alarmed.
“Oh, you mean there’s a new youth in the city who has a Divine Light Dragon in his hands?”
“Reporting to the bishop, yes.
“I’ve seen the Divine Light Dragon enter the city with my own eyes. There’s a young girl on the back of the dragon. It should be someone from other places who came to seek medical treatment.
“But the Battle Beast that hit young master Morgan was not the Divine Light Dragon but a strange big snake.
“At the beginning, this giant snake was just an ordinary black snake. When the guards of the castellan’s mansion went to capture it, it somehow turned into a giant snake with nine heads.
“The nine-headed snake has many spells of different attributes. It’s very powerful.
“The old man chose to fuse with the Battle Beast. In the end, he and the Twin-headed Chimera were both torn apart by the giant snake and swallowed.”
The attendant who came to report the battle scene explained in detail, even to the point of every spell.
However, there were some spells that he did not recognize. He could only describe the appearance and destructive power of the spell, but he could not name them.
“There’s such an amazing youth in the world.”
“This old thing relied on his own Spatial Movement and went around doing whatever he wanted. He even dared to bully the nuns in our church.
“Now that we’ve finally met a tough opponent, it’s good that he’s dead!”
The bishop said with hatred. It was obvious that he had been angry with Morgan and the old man for a long time.
Due to the status of City Lord Reid, he had been holding back.
“Pa.s.s down the order. Find the young man and get in touch with him. Find out his background.
“If possible, recruit him into the church.
“Even if you can’t recruit him, try to buy his Divine Light Dragon.
“I don’t want to use force, but since the Divine Light Dragon has come to Cloud City, it must belong to the Church of Light.”
The bishop had just finished scolding Morgan for his misdeeds. In the blink of an eye, he had started to have thoughts on Locke’s Divine Light Dragon.
In the end, this was still a world where the strong preyed on the weak.
The Divine Light Dragon was too precious.
If Locke did not have any background and was just a lucky kid, then it would be best for him to be recruited into the church of light.
If Locke had some background, then he could only attack from behind.
He had hurt Morgan’s life and City Lord Reid would not let this off easily.
It was a good opportunity to make a deal with Reid.
He could use the recovery spell, but the price was that no matter what Reid thought of, he had to get the Divine Light Dragon.
“Yes, your subordinate will make the arrangements now!”
The attendant quickly responded and stepped back.
Anyone who could become a bishop of a city was a ruthless and decisive person.
This kind of killing and s.n.a.t.c.hing of treasures was already familiar to him.
