Lan Tianyu gave a low shout, and his right hand shot out like lightning.
The hand, brimming with immense strength, gripped Rex's shoulder like an iron clamp.
"Uh!"
Rex's body stiffened abruptly as he was captured, and a beast-like growl escaped his throat.
Without any hesitation, their combat power index also surged.
【1036……4562……7032……10569】
Rex struggled frantically, his eyes flashing with a ruthless glint.
Clearly, the Black Dragon's orders were driving him to want to kill the person who dared to block his access to the medicinal herbs.
Seeing that he couldn't break free, Rex was about to put on the Gauntlet of Ares.
"Humph!"
Lan Tianyu snorted coldly upon seeing this, how could he allow him to activate his spiritual weapon?
Just as Ares's hand was about to cover Rex's palm.
The spell [Azure] is activated instantly.
Lan Tianyu stretched out his right hand and made a grabbing motion in the air towards the direction of Ares's Hand.
hum!
A very subtle distortion or fluctuation occurred in space.
The metal glove, reeking of blood, was stripped away by an invisible force and vanished from Rex's wrist in an instant.
The next moment, it appeared directly in Lan Tianyu's hand.
The Hand of Ares brought forth a chilling, bone-deep coldness.
The malevolent energy attempted to erode his body, but it was easily suppressed by Lan Tianyu's powerful internal energy.
With his spirit weapon taken away, Rex became even more ferocious, punching and kicking recklessly in an attempt to break free of his restraints.
But Lan Tianyu's strength was like a mountain, unmoved.
The tricky part is that Rex, who has become a zombie, has lost many of his neurological responses.
It's virtually impossible to knock him unconscious.
At this moment, the pharmacy clerk finally caught up, panting.
He was overjoyed to see Lan Tianyu subdue the thief and retrieve the stolen medicine boxes.
He hurriedly bowed repeatedly to Lan Tianyu, tears of gratitude streaming down his face.
"Thank you so much, you've been a great help. These medicinal herbs are very valuable..."
Upon hearing this, Lan Tianyu waved his hand expressionlessly, interrupting his profuse thanks.
“It’s no trouble at all. You go ahead with your work. I’ll take him to the police station.”
His mind was entirely focused on Rex and Black Dragon, and he had no time to pay attention to the shop assistant.
Having said that, he picked up Rex, who was still struggling and roaring wildly, and walked into a small alley.
After confirming that no one was following him, he teleported away.
The top floor of an unfinished building.
The wind howled on the empty concrete platform.
Lan Tianyu threw Rex to the ground, and the latter immediately sprang up like a spring, growling as he lunged at him.
"Be quiet!"
Lan Tianyu's eyes narrowed, and an even stronger pressure instantly pressed down, pinning Rex to the spot, rendering him unable to move.
He walked up to Rex, ignoring the man's bestial gaze.
Extending his right index finger, a mysterious red light appeared at the tip, seemingly containing the power to reverse life and death.
"Reverse the technique!"
Lan Tianyu silently recited the mantra and gently touched Rex's dantian with his fingertips.
laugh!
Like a red-hot branding iron pressed onto ice.
The jet-black seed within the dantian trembled and twisted violently the moment it came into contact with the red light, instantly turning white.
The lifeless energy that constitutes the seed was forcibly analyzed and reversed by that tiny glimmer of light.
The pitch-black demonic energy melted away like ice and snow, quickly transforming into pure, vibrant energy.
It even nourishes and repairs Rex's meridians, which have been eroded by demonic energy.
"what!"
Rex's body convulsed violently, and the fierce light in his eyes quickly faded, replaced by extreme pain and confusion.
The cold shackles that bind the soul are being forcibly stripped away and transformed.
A moment later, the last trace of chaos in Rex's eyes disappeared, and he regained complete clarity.
He was breathing heavily, his forehead covered in cold sweat, as if he had just woken up from an incredibly terrifying nightmare.
He looked around at the dilapidated surroundings in a daze, his gaze finally settling on Lan Tianyu, who stood with his hands behind his back in front of him.
"Teacher Lan~?"
Rex's voice was hoarse and dry, filled with disbelief.
Before he could ask any more questions, a long string of memories suddenly flooded back.
This was all his memory of scrambling for medicinal herbs over the past two days.
Twenty-four hours a day, they are either scrambling for medicinal herbs or on their way to scramble for them; they can't stop for a moment.
With his shrewdness, he understood instantly.
It must have been Teacher Lan who saved me!
Otherwise, you'll just become like a machine, endlessly repeating a certain command.
Thinking of this, he looked at Lan Tianyu, and felt an overwhelming sense of gratitude.
[Rex's affinity with the host: Extremely high, collection efficiency +200%!]
Lan Tianyu ignored the system notification.
At this moment, he had more important things to do.
He didn't waste any time, cutting straight to the point, his voice icy:
Have you ever seen a black dragon?
"Black dragon?"
Rex looked blank, clearly unfamiliar with the name.
Upon seeing this, Lan Tianyu realized that Rex didn't know the Black Dragon.
So, they immediately changed the description.
"It was a person wearing a black robe and whose whole body was glowing green."
"You two met once before at the Black Cat Bar."
Upon hearing this, Rex's pupils contracted sharply.
Memories surged up like a tide.
He instantly recalled the scene of his chance encounter with the black dragon two days ago, and extreme fear and hatred appeared on his face.
“I have indeed seen Black Dragon. He attacked me without warning.”
Recalling the pain of being turned into a zombie, Rex's body trembled involuntarily.
"Where did you meet him? Tell me the exact location."
Lan Tianyu raised an eyebrow and continued to press for answers.
"Let me think about it, actually I was just wandering around aimlessly..."
Rex tried hard to recall.
Lan Tianyu didn't urge him, but waited patiently.
A detailed address was not given until a minute later.
"understood."
Lan Tianyu got the address and didn't want to delay any longer.
He glanced at the still-shaken Rex, thought for a moment, and then tossed the Hand of Ares back to him.
"Wait here for me a moment, I might have something for you to do."
The moment the words left his mouth, his figure vanished in an instant.
Rex plopped down on the ground, staring blankly at the dilapidated, unfinished building.
Although he could escape at this moment, the thought of Teacher Lan's terrifying combat power immediately extinguished the idea.
Although he didn't know what Teacher Lan had asked him to do, he figured it wouldn't endanger his life.
……
The outskirts of the city.
Abandoned industrial area.
Lan Tianyu appeared silently, his gaze fixed on the location Rex had described.
Ahead lay a vast expanse of dense forest.
With a thought, Lan Tianyu used the spell "Six Eyes".
The field of vision before my eyes was instantly analyzed and magnified infinitely.
On a level that ordinary people cannot perceive.
A faint trace of extremely weak, almost dissipated demonic energy remained in the air.
"If we had arrived a day later, the terrifying demonic energy would have dissipated."
Lan Tianyu secretly sighed with relief and immediately followed the faint trace of demonic energy.
Like the most keen hunting dogs, they swiftly traverse the forest.
His speed was extremely fast, yet he moved silently, his [Six Eyes] precisely capturing every trace of residual demonic energy.
The tracking lasted for about five minutes, penetrating deep into the heart of the territory.
Finally, the trail of that demonic energy was completely severed in front of a mountain wall covered by dense vines.
Lan Tianyu stopped in his tracks, his gaze piercing through the vines and landing on the seemingly ordinary mountain wall.
There are no caves, no gaps.
The demonic energy vanished into thin air.
This indicates that the black dragon once stayed in this area.
Was this a randomly chosen location, or is there some hidden meaning here?
Lan Tianyu raised an eyebrow and carefully inspected every corner.
He soon made a discovery.
The seemingly random arrangement of several black stones on the ground forms a force field that covers an area of several meters in radius.
At this moment, he stands outside the established position.
He cautiously approached and reached out to touch the invisible force field.
The fingertip pierced through the barrier, but nothing happened.
Lan Tianyu used [Six Eyes] again to check the surroundings, but found no traps, so he went straight in.
