Chapter 98 - Chapter 98: One Against Three

Roy immediately shattered a bottle of Orchard Curse he carried, and a faint aroma of wine wafted through the air.

Pimier swiftly dodged behind a nearby tree.

The other two also pulled out alchemical masks, covering their noses and mouths, with even their eyes shielded by goggles to prevent mucous membrane absorption.

"Be careful of his hair! It's the Hair Demon Physique, and it seems to have a strong metallic property mixed in!" Canilla warned.

Sure enough, Roy's hair suddenly elongated, spreading and flailing wildly.

Like chains, strands of his hair extended in all directions, resembling frenzied tentacles.

Pimier and the others skillfully avoided them, but their followers rushed forward, with several burly men grabbing hold of the hair.

Each of them possessed the Life Energy of an advanced knight, instantly suppressing the hair's activity.

Pimier quickly chanted an incantation, and white, tooth-shaped Wizardry Energy from the Bone Tooth Spell shot out.

Canilla hurled an Alchemy Bomb.

Koqiade, meanwhile, conjured frost in his palm and suddenly thrust it forward, forming a Frost Orb the size of a human head, brimming with dense energy.

It was bone-chilling, with frost so intense it felt oppressive.

This was the elemental form of Wizardry Energy.

If it hit, it would instantly freeze a person's blood, rendering them completely immobile.

"We've got him!"

Seeing Roy unable to move, the three of them simultaneously showed expressions of excitement and triumph.

"You're done for now!"

Hearing these words, Roy, trapped and seemingly immobilized, curled his lips slightly, his strikingly handsome face revealing a faint trace of mockery.

An Invisible Force Field rose around his body, simultaneously blocking their combined assault.

The howling bone teeth, the violent explosion, and the icy frost...

All were repelled by the Invisible Force Field.

"What is that?"

The three of them were shaken, their faces filled with shock and anger.

Soon, their expressions turned to a mix of greed and terror.

"It must be a treasure from Chalkland!"

Suddenly, a white light erupted from Roy's hair.

Earlier, he had silently adjusted the conductivity of his Hair Demon Physique.

The Levitating Magic Orb hidden within his hair suddenly appeared, and as lightning flashed, a Lightning Beam shot out, scattering electric sparks everywhere.

The followers who had grabbed his hair screamed in agony.

Roy seized the opportunity to break free from their grasp.

But he soon realized that, despite their screams, none of them had lost their combat ability.

A peculiar Wizardry Energy surged within their bodies—Lightning Resistance Potion! And it was of a high grade at that!

They actually knew about this...

Ah, Pimier had fallen victim to this trick before.

Without time to think further, the tips of Roy's hair, like tentacles, coiled around each of them, their ends sharpening into spear-like forms before thrusting in!

This was a further advancement of the Animation Art.

The Life Energy infused within it granted nearly 10 degrees of force, almost matching the natural free energy he could manipulate with his Mental Strength, reaching the upper tier of apprentice-level spells.

The sudden counterattack caught all the followers off guard, killing them instantly in a single moment!

The Life Energy of a Grand Knight erupted abruptly, and Roy moved like lightning, striking back.

"Ah!"

Canilla was the first to scream.

His strength was inferior to Pimier and Koqiade, so Roy targeted him first.

Roy reached out, and a long strand of his hair automatically detached, forming a spear several meters long.

This was one of the properties of Aquinas magic gold.

After absorbing enough blood from the crimson pond of the Humanoid Angel, it had already gained the ability to transform at this level. Combined with the Hair Demon Physique integrated with the "Animation Art," it could be said to change freely.

And this information, Canilla had not been able to collect before.

He was instantly pierced by the spear, clutching his stomach as he hastily retreated.

But Roy remained close to the ground, swiftly chasing after him.

In a matter of moments, he thrust the spear several more times, lifting the terrified Canilla into the air.

Canilla was instantly severely injured!

At that moment, with a thud, a long sword pierced through Roy's back.

Turning his head, he saw that it was Koqiade.

"Hit!"

With a hint of excitement, he watched as the sword plunged into Roy's heart.

But moments later, a look of shock appeared on his face.

Because what flowed from Roy's body was not the normal blood of a living creature, but the artificial blood of an Alchemical Lifeform, transformed by the Wizard Body!

"This is Blood Mercury!"

Koqiade's pupils dilated violently, instantly understanding what was going on.

Roy's expression remained indifferent, emotionless as he looked at him.

After filling with mercury as blood, his heart had become a mere decoration, no longer playing any role in blood circulation.

He was not affected by this strike.

Roy's hair extended backward, wrapping around Koqiade's sword and arm, then spreading to his neck.

"Wait, I surrender! I surrender!"

Koqiade hurriedly shouted.

"Please, don't kill me. I'm willing to pay a ransom to atone for this offense!

If that's not enough, I'm willing to become your vassal, to serve and follow you!"

But what greeted him was not mercy, but the coiling of hair like a python.

Without turning his head, Roy's hair crushed his throat and twisted his cervical spine.

Then it pierced his chest, shattering his heart.

Even entering through his mouth and eyes, it penetrated his skull, scrambling his brain!

Why do they all...

talk about ransoms?

I don't quite understand your pirate culture from another world, that's my fault.

But...

you probably don't understand me either!

Roy sneered inwardly.

With a thought, the Levitating Magic Orb above his head erupted with energy.

A Lightning Beam shot from behind, striking Pimier, who had seen the situation turning bad and tried to flee!

Pimier's body trembled violently.

He had indeed taken a resistance potion, or perhaps he was wearing a corresponding talisman.

Despite the stiffness and numbness in his body, he forcefully turned around and punched at Roy.

Surging Life Energy condensed in his arm, gathering in his fist, and suddenly exploded.

This was a long-prepared strike.

It seemed as if even the air was ignited, the intense expansion causing a high-pressure explosion, with dust and dirt flying everywhere.

Pimier's expression was fierce, slightly panting as he watched.

But moments later, the dust settled, revealing the figure within.

Roy's body stood like an iron pillar, unmoved and unharmed.

At the critical moment, he had once again used the Aegis Stone to block the attack.

Without a word, Roy grabbed the iron spear formed from his hair and thrust it through Pimier.

As the spear passed through his body, strands of hair formed barbs.

Then, with a forceful pull.

Rip!

Like the sound of cloth tearing, the entire heart was pulled out and shredded!

Pimier's eyes widened in shock.

"Damn... it!"

His life force gradually dissipated, and he ultimately died completely.

However, his abnormally unusual right

arm still exuded a sense of vitality.

Only then did Roy realize that the Wizardry Energy Radiation, which had previously seemed like the Source of Magic, was emanating from it.
