Do You Really Think You’re an Elephant Just Because You Stuck Scallions Up Your Nose?

Elsewhere, Nano Vajra watched Lu Su, who had not been converted by his Buddha Light, with a grim expression. "You have some skill, Benefactor."

And it was not just Lu Su. Altria and Ulquiorra had not been affected either.

The former continuously repelled the tiny nanobots around her with Mana Burst, while the latter used Spirit Pressure.

But Nano Vajra did have some strength. Both Altria and Ulquiorra could sense that their mana and spiritual power were being devoured at an extremely slow rate under the illumination of the Buddha Light.

Clearly, these tiny nanobots were not mere technological creations.

Although Nano Vajra called himself a Buddhist, he was actually notorious within this Secret Realm. After all, so-called conversion meant being drained into a mummified corpse by the Buddha Light. The deaths were incomparably miserable, with none of a monk’s compassion.

After a brief stalemate, Altria and Ulquiorra attacked together, while Lu Su remained at the Secret Realm Entrance and waited for reinforcements.

According to the plan made earlier in Ande City, the Card Masters outside would only enter after Lu Su and the other three Jade Grade Card Masters had cleared the demons around the Secret Realm Entrance.

Of course, if anything unexpected happened, Lu Su and the others would withdraw from the Secret Realm without hesitation.

But for now, the situation remained within Lu Su’s control.

As the youth considered his next move, Altria and Ulquiorra had already arrived before Nano Vajra.

Yet when faced with the weapons attacking him simultaneously, he neither dodged nor evaded. Instead, he took both attacks head-on with his body.

Bang!

As the magnificent Holy Sword swept past, Nano Vajra’s head fell to the ground.

At the same time, the emerald Spirit Spear in Ulquiorra’s hand had already blasted a huge hole through his chest.

Despite killing their opponent so easily, Altria and Ulquiorra did not lower their guard. They merely withdrew their weapons and retreated sharply.

The Blonde Girl in particular received constant warnings from her Instinct.

Then, Nano Vajra’s severed head suddenly spoke from the ground. "You should give up this futile struggle, Benefactors."

"Buddha resides in my heart. This poor monk will not die."

As his words fell, the Buddha Light in the air abruptly bloomed with dazzling golden radiance.

But what answered him was a Spirit Spear that tore through the air.

Whoosh!

Unfortunately, before the Spirit Spear could strike Nano Vajra’s head, it gradually dissipated within the endless Buddha Light.

Seeing this, Lu Su immediately came back to his senses.

To be honest, Nano Vajra’s strength had already exceeded his expectations. If it had been someone else, they would have suffered a huge loss after being caught off guard.

So they really are trying to surround and kill me.

The youth silently thought to himself, wondering why that giant Robot swordsman he had encountered before was nowhere to be seen this time.

Nano Vajra also noticed that Wormhole Ghost Sparrow and Unohana Retsu had vanished. He sighed. "I never expected you to possess such a method, Benefactor. It seems Bai Xiaosheng miscalculated this time."

Speak of the devil. Just as he said that, a blurry figure suddenly appeared beside him.

Very quickly, the figure solidified into Bai Xiaosheng.

With a grim expression, he said, "Something’s wrong. Where is Guique?"

Seeing his expression, Nano Vajra could not help but freeze. He subconsciously replied, "That female Benefactor took him somewhere unknown."

Upon hearing this, Bai Xiaosheng’s expression turned ugly. "First, first—"

He had just been about to say something when his voice began cutting in and out, as though the signal was terrible. Then his figure vanished.

Nano Vajra turned to look, only to find a Tea-haired Girl half-crouching beside Lu Su with both hands in her pockets.

It was Misaka Mikoto.

She spoke with a headache. "The other side doesn’t seem to be purely electronic equipment, so I can only disrupt the signal transmission for a short while. It’ll probably return to normal soon."

"Oh, and I can’t control that bald monk’s little bugs either."

Then she shrugged. "But there’s good news too. I tracked down where they’re hiding, though it’s too far from here."

By too far, Misaka Mikoto meant that the enemy was currently outside Lu Su’s attack range.

Hearing this, Lu Su smiled faintly. "This much time is already enough."

"Finish this quickly, or they might start getting anxious outside."

The reason the youth had summoned Misaka Mikoto was naturally because he had realized that Bai Xiaosheng had used some kind of communication method to appear here.

As a Level 5 Railgun, the Tea-haired Girl happened to possess methods that countered such things.

Hacker Expert: For Misaka Mikoto, who directly manipulates electronics, there is no program she cannot decipher and no firewall she cannot breach.

Although she was only Gold Grade, and the enemy’s methods were not purely technological, so she could only cause slight signal interference, Lu Su was already very satisfied.

Sensing that Bai Xiaosheng’s disappearance was unusual, Nano Vajra could not help frowning slightly.

Before he could ask anything, Altria and Ulquiorra attacked once more.

Seeing this, he lowered his eyes, his face filled with compassion. "It’s useless. Do not waste your efforts, Benefactors."

Yet Altria and Ulquiorra remained expressionless as they merely forced him farther away.

Thinking the two wanted to drive him back, Nano Vajra said helplessly, "Since you two are so loyal, why not convert to my Buddha and become protectors at his side? Would that not be wonderful?"

Because they had not descended for long, the demons of this Secret Realm clearly did not understand the relationship between cards and Card Masters.

At that moment, Altria suddenly retreated, while Ulquiorra shot into the sky.

Nano Vajra was immediately puzzled by what they intended to do, but he was not foolish enough to remain standing still.

Whoosh!

But in the next moment, a terrifying sonic boom came from the clouds. A ghastly green Spirit Spear suddenly descended from the sky toward Nano Vajra.

"This poor monk said it was use—"

The bald man had just started to speak when he sensed an aura from the Spirit Spear far more terrifying than before.

This was Ulquiorra and Altria’s tactic.

Since the enemy had displayed remarkable recovery abilities, they would use an explosive attack to erase him, along with his so-called Buddha Light, from this world.

After all, during the earlier battle with Liu Wenyi, Ulquiorra had not used Thunder Spear.

Therefore, Nano Vajra had no defense whatsoever against this attack.

Boom!

The suddenly spreading spiritual energy instantly swallowed Nano Vajra’s location. The once-powerful Buddha Light looked incomparably dim before the explosion created by Thunder Spear.

Violent tremors continuously spread outward from the center of the explosion.

In the shadows, Liu Wenyi, who had fought Ulquiorra before, could not help knitting his brows. He was considering how he could block such a terrifying attack.

"I didn’t expect that outsider to be hiding such a method." The young woman beside him shook her head slightly. "Those three beasts are probably finished."

"And—"

The young woman stopped speaking and turned her gaze toward the golden beam shooting into the heavens in the distance.

"Tch, that kind of attack."

Hearing that, Liu Wenyi nodded. Then an interested expression appeared on his face. "But compared with all that, I’m more interested in that woman."

He meant Unohana Retsu. As a fellow swordsman, he felt an eager thrill upon encountering worthy prey.

Unfortunately, she had used an ability to take Wormhole Ghost Sparrow somewhere unknown, preventing him from seeing the rest of the battle.

Who would have thought that the young woman would roll her eyes at that moment? "Are you sure an old-school swordswoman like that would have anything in common with someone like you?"

According to the records, when Martial Arts Armaments first appeared, they had caused a tremendous impact in their world.

In the end, the reformists who embraced the innovation of Martial Arts Armaments had naturally won. Otherwise, they would not be here now.

Liu Wenyi did not care. He chuckled. "Ah, what matters is having a heart that loves the sword."

The young woman was instantly speechless, not knowing what to say.

Within the battlefield, the explosion created by Thunder Spear was gradually dissipating.

A moment later, Nano Vajra, whose body had already been mostly destroyed, stared at Ulquiorra in the sky with a gloomy expression.

But just as he prepared to say something, a terrifying aura that made him feel as though he had fallen into an ice pit pressed down from a distant place.

"Excalibur!"

Lu Su had naturally prepared a backup plan in case Nano Vajra survived.

After Ulquiorra released Thunder Spear, Altria had already begun unleashing the Holy Sword.

However, against someone like this, the Blonde Girl did not even need to release the Holy Sword’s restraints.

At that very moment, Bai Xiaosheng, wearing a sour expression, appeared before Nano Vajra once more.

After seeing the other’s utterly miserable state, he froze. "Eh? You—"

Before he could finish, he followed the bald man’s gaze and looked behind himself.

Then there was no then.

The golden torrent swallowed everything.

Sensing that Nano Vajra’s aura had completely disappeared, Lu Su shook his head slightly. "Now we just wait for Sister Lie to deal with that flea."

In the underground space, Bai Xiaosheng stood before the light screen with a blank expression. Only after a long while did he gradually regain his senses.

Thinking of what had just happened, his face twitched uncontrollably. "…No wonder I couldn’t detect anything."

"I—"

The scholar grew angrier the more he thought about it. He casually wanted to smash something, but when he saw the servers around him, he suppressed his anger.

He only felt incomparably stifled.

More importantly—

"I’m the only one left." Bai Xiaosheng’s face twisted bitterly. "I should hide here for now. Once things die down, I’ll find a way to recruit some more helpers."

He no longer held any hope that Guique would survive. After all, even Nano Vajra, the legendary toughest fighter of their world, had been killed by the enemy.

The reason he was so upset was naturally that all the helpers he had painstakingly recruited had been wiped out in one go.

As a voyeurism enthusiast, there were quite a few people in this world who wanted him dead.

Unfortunately, Bai Xiaosheng did not know that Misaka Mikoto had already found his address.

Once Lu Su’s side was free, he planned to pay this peeping freak a visit and give him some warmth.

In Ande City, Cui Dazhu and the other two were anxiously watching the Secret Realm Entrance before them.

After entering the Secret Realm, the three had discovered that Lu Su was not with them. At first, they thought it was merely an accident.

But after the demons around the other Secret Realm Entrance had been cleared, they prepared to go support Lu Su.

Yet after entering and exiting several times, they discovered that they would only appear in the other Secret Realm and could not enter Lu Su’s Secret Realm no matter what they did.

At that point, even an idiot would know something was wrong.

Little Brother, you have to hold on.

Cui Dazhu thought miserably, then prepared to try once more to enter the Secret Realm where Lu Su was.

Just then, a figure gradually emerged from the Space Rift.

After seeing the newcomer’s face clearly, Cui Dazhu and the others were delighted.

"It’s safe inside. Lord Lu Su asked you to enter."

It was Ulquiorra.

Yet upon hearing his words, Cui Dazhu and the others froze.

"Huh?"

Why did this seem—

A little different from what they had imagined?
