Slaughter

Whine!

The intense concentration of qi produced a piercing shriek. The man in the black top hat clearly heard the commotion as he walked. He looked up just in time to see someone flying through the air, golden light condensing at his fingertips as they pointed at him.

The man knew he had been discovered by a hostile Reincarnator. Rather than rushing to join Flame Demon and the others who had teleported to the open sea, he rapidly spun the short wand in his right hand. Then, with a shift of his gaze, he pointed the wand at the stone-paved ground before him.

Rumble!

The stone pavement swiftly bulged upward. In an instant, a stone wall rose up.

Boom!

The Dodon Ray exploded, shattering the stone wall completely and instantly filling the area with smoke.

Bai Cangshu could sense that the extremely condensed qi had pierced through the stone slabs and penetrated the ground beyond before exploding, but the other person had already vanished.

You attacked a Reincarnator in a mission world. Based on the difference in Mental Power between both parties, you obtained the following information.

Your attack did not deal damage to GL90887121.

Bai Cangshu did not stop. He skimmed over the smoke and glided directly toward another district. Having entered this world first, he understood the island’s current situation far better than Reincarnators who had arrived later.

Sure enough, after the explosion rang out, members of God’s Guard quickly appeared from the street corner on the other side.

These Skypieans all had Jet Dials strapped to their feet, allowing them to move at great speed. They quickly surrounded the blast site from the air.

Bai Cangshu sneered and flipped onto the rooftop of a tall building.

"Reducto!"

An urgent incantation rang out, and the ground beneath Bai Cangshu’s feet rapidly exploded.

He shifted his center of gravity and leaped with the momentum. The shockwave from the exploding bricks and stones could not harm him, but this also exposed Bai Cangshu to God’s Guard again. A group of guards wielding spears took to the air and flew toward him.

Bai Cangshu had gained a rough understanding of the black top-hatted Reincarnator’s abilities. The man’s powers likely leaned toward spells from the Harry Potter world.

He was quite an unconventional magic-type Reincarnator.

Unlike ordinary spellcasters who casually summoned all kinds of elemental magic, the spells of the Harry Potter world were more like a magical network system, with every spell possessing a specific effect.

While their overall scale was not particularly great, quite a few had unusual effects.

And among those spells… the dangerous dark magic was equally troublesome.

"Avada Kedavra!"

Bai Cangshu grabbed the spear thrust at him by a Skypiean. That icy killing intent manifested into reality. From the corner of his eye, he saw green spell-light flare up, and with a flash, he pulled the Skypiean in front of himself.

Pfft!

The green spell struck the tall Skypiean. All the strength in his body instantly dissipated, and his body turned cold. Bai Cangshu released him, and the Skypiean fell straight to the ground without making a sound.

Avada Kedavra was probably the lowest-threshold instant-death ability accessible to magic-type Reincarnators.

Its cost was low, its consumption was minimal, yet it carried an instant-death effect. Unless the difference in magical power between the two sides was too great, or the target possessed a specific immunity, being hit by this spell meant immediate death.

Bai Cangshu had realized this hidden danger the moment he saw the other party’s Shaping Magic.

Bang!

Bai Cangshu sprinted across the rooftops toward the distance, casually firing the silver revolver in his hand behind him. His marksmanship was mediocre; he relied entirely on the passive effect of Knocking on Misfortune’s Door to shoot.

On the ground, Hades watched the fellow in the pink robe evade Avada Kedavra and smiled. He continuously waved his wand at the ground.

The stone pavement rapidly writhed. Great snakes made from stone and soil coiled their bodies and lunged at the Skypieans.

Hades did not take these Plot Characters seriously at all. He merely watched the fleeing Mercenary Tao with interest, pressing his wand to his throat as his voice was immediately amplified.

"Fierce Person: Mercenary Tao, is this all you’ve got?"

"Instead of coming to hunt me, you chose to run?!"

Buzz!

A powerful blast of wind erupted. Nirvana, the towering priest, shot out fiercely from the other side. He struck with his palm, and the Impact Dial on his hand instantly shattered the stone snakes with ten times the impact. The next moment, he roared as he closed in on Hades.

He grabbed Hades by the shoulder with one hand, about to exert force and shake him to death.

But Hades remained calm. At some point, the wand in his right hand had slipped beneath his arm and pointed at the other man.

Levicorpus.

Nirvana’s body was instantly inverted by an invisible force, leaving him hanging upside down in midair.

Hades patted the slightly wrinkled coat where he had been grabbed, then pressed his wand against Nirvana’s forehead.

"Avada Kedavra."

Using too much dark magic could affect one’s mind, but such negative effects were practically negligible for Reincarnators.

A flash of green light vanished in an instant. Nirvana, the tall and powerful priest, fell completely silent, his corpse still hanging in the air and swaying.

You killed Priest Nirvana and obtained 10 Dimensional Points.

Hades was a Reincarnator who had crossed the First Tier. The rewards he could gain from killing ordinary Plot Characters were already quite limited, but this notification still made him notice something.

Because he had been on the ground just now, he had overlooked certain details. Seeing these Skypieans and this priest now, he sensed a possible danger.

He stopped loudly provoking Mercenary Tao and prepared to turn around and meet up with Flame Demon and the others first.

Bang!

Light flashed behind Hades, triggering his protective talisman. He turned around and, sure enough, saw that Mercenary Tao had already dealt with the Skypiean pursuers. He had appeared atop a building again and was firing a revolver at him.

Mercenary Tao wanted to lure Enel over to deal with him…

"Protego Horribilis."

Hades looked coldly at his opponent and refused to take the bait, moving swiftly toward the outskirts of the town.

After taking two steps, a broom appeared beneath him. Bai Cangshu’s gaze shifted, and the next moment, he leaped high into the air and rapidly flew toward Hades.

Hades sneered inwardly, abruptly turned around, and raised his glowing wand.

Avada Kedavra!

Bai Cangshu twisted his body in midair, revealing a grim smile only then. Though Avada Kedavra had many advantages, its weaknesses were also obvious.

The spell’s projectile was not fast, and it had no piercing or tracking effects.

It could be understood as a firearm with immense destructive power but only average projectile speed.

The wariness Bai Cangshu had displayed was all an act. Even when he could not defend against gunfire, he could completely ignore the shots of a single person. Why would he fear this spell now?

An instant-death spell was completely meaningless if it could not hit its target!

Buzz!

In midair, Bai Cangshu abruptly activated Third-Order Instant!

The surrounding air instantly blurred, unleashing terrifying sonic booms.

Boom!

The instant the sonic boom cloud appeared, Bai Cangshu had already slammed directly into Hades.

Bang!

Hades was sent flying as though struck by a train. The sound of his talisman shattering rang out alongside the breaking of spells and bones.

Blood poured from his mouth and nose as an item appeared in his hand, which he was about to crush.

But the air around them let out a piercing shriek sharp enough to tear eardrums apart. His right hand suddenly froze, and only then did his vision slowly refocus. A blurry figure condensed into shape before him.

How was that possible…

He had just been sent flying by the other party’s full-force collision. How had the man caught up to him again…

The muscles across Bai Cangshu’s body were drenched in blood. Fourth-Order Instant had begun causing extensive damage to his muscle tissue, but his body was healing at the same time.

His speed had now completely surpassed the speed of sound. His body, expanded to over two meters tall, seemed to have stretched out as well, resembling an incomplete afterimage. With one hand, he gripped Hades’s right hand, preventing him from tightening his grip around the item.

Crack!

With a hard squeeze, bones shattered, and the item vanished with them. Another wand appeared in Hades’s left hand. To Bai Cangshu, the spell-light gathering upon it seemed to move in slow motion. The two were now in the air, like high-speed fighter jets trailing white exhaust flames as they shot straight out of the town toward the open sea.

Boom!

Their straight flight path suddenly exploded above the beach. The sharply altered trajectory tore through the air, producing flower-like contrails.

A figure crashed violently into the sandy shallows.

The defensive spell around Hades was physically broken, and the healing magic of his robes was passively triggered as well.

His consciousness, which had nearly gone dark, quickly returned. He saw a figure descend from the sky without even splashing a drop of water.

Hades finally understood that this Fierce Person: Mercenary Tao was not the "fraud" Flame Demon had described.

Damn it, this guy really was an expert…

He quickly retreated. The Portkey took too long to activate, leaving no opportunity to use it at close range against a martial arts expert like this. He gripped his wand in his left hand again and continuously waved it at the beach and sea.

Sand dragons rolled, sea dragons surged. Shaping Magic was the most convenient magic for battle and also the magic he used most smoothly.

Hades kept retreating, but Mercenary Tao merely watched him, head tilted and a cruel smile on his face.

Suddenly, Hades stepped on something. His foot slipped, his center of gravity tilted, and his vision opened up.

Not good!

Boom!

A piercing rush swept toward him. The sand dragon and sea dragon between them were both smashed apart. His opponent charged with the brute force of a wild beast.

Hades’s heart stirred.

Buzz!

Bai Cangshu threw a punch. The air shattered inch by inch, and those fragmented contrails flew from his fist like a white dragon. But Hades’s body suddenly twisted and instantly disappeared.

It was Apparition!

Bai Cangshu turned around and, sure enough, saw the other man appear on the other side of the beach. He stepped forward again.

Boom!

All the sand on the beach seemed to be jolted into the air at once.

Screech!

Amid the scorched smell of the air, Bai Cangshu transformed into a blur of speed once more and appeared behind Hades, who had just reappeared.

Hades was in immense pain. A large chunk of flesh had been torn from his shoulder.

Apparition was an extremely convenient teleportation spell. Skilled wizards did not even need a wand to cast it. However, it could only transport the caster to a destination of which they had a strong mental impression, and it had a distance limit. It was also dangerous to cast. If one’s concentration was insufficient, the terrifying result could be losing a part of one’s body.

Hades normally never failed when casting this spell, but at this moment, his luck was terrible.

Furthermore, Hades had only just entered this world and had very few locations firmly imprinted in his mind. Bai Cangshu knew this was the best time to kill him.

Crackle…

The sound of lightning began to ring out. Enel could descend at any moment. Bai Cangshu no longer hid anything. As his body fully expanded, his heartbeat accelerated to a terrifying pace.

At that moment, Bai Cangshu felt the air’s viscosity again. He felt that he could completely step on that viscous air to change direction.

Amid his high-speed movement, Bai Cangshu began to grasp the mysteries behind the other moves of the Six Powers.

The hairs on Hades’s back stood on end. Feeling the air howl like the wailing of ghosts and wolves, he could no longer worry about Apparition failing. He recalled the place where he had first entered this world and cast the spell again.

"Apparition!"

Pfft!

Bai Cangshu watched space begin to twist, but he paid it no heed. Armament Haki covered his right hand as the black Magic Spear erupted again, stabbing directly into the center of the vortex.

Splurt!

Blood sprayed out, and the twisted vortex instantly vanished, taking Bai Cangshu’s right arm with it.

As blood gushed from Bai Cangshu, he seemed unable to feel any pain at all. Instead, he laughed Exhilaratedly.
