His whole body was sent flying backward.
But before he could catch his breath, he felt a sticky force follow through, accompanied by a strange aura of power, and a punch landed heavily on the guy’s chest.
With a “puh,” a mouthful of old blood spurted out.
Loki was slammed heavily against the wall.
After all, belonging to the professional sequence of the most durable Black Knights, the fellow launched another attack the moment he was severely injured.
Just as Leonard Churchill threw his punch, he inwardly regretted that it was a pity.
He estimated that the strength of the punch was less than one-tenth of his state in full victory, so it was normal that it didn’t kill the opponent.
However, from the moment the guy was forced to retreat, he had already lost the last bit of chance to kill Vera Williams.
Leonard Churchill’s sticky force clung to Loki the whole way, utterly overpowering him with skill.
Previously, at Master Barre Shepherd’s place, it wasn’t just Air Skill he learned, but also fighting techniques.
Although Leonard Churchill’s current strength fell far short of his opponent’s, no matter how the opponent exerted force, he was always able to stick and hit.
There were no martial skills that consumed too much Curse Power, just some clever little techniques that were just right.
If it were a fighting game, you might see a string of combo values like “× 26,” “× 27,” “× 28″… pop up.
(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})
Once the combo connected, it wouldn’t break unless the opponent died.
Captain Loki was like a human-shaped punching bag, enduring the hits passively throughout the fight.
He wanted to counterattack, but not a single move caused any substantial damage to Leonard Churchill.
Since Black Knights have extremely tough bodies, Leonard Churchill could only gradually accumulate injuries to kill him.
With every hit, Loki would cough up fresh blood, and his Body Protection Curse Power flickered like a flame in the wind, growing weaker.
Leonard Churchill’s punches and palms landed on the guy as if they inflicted real damage, even through the Leather Armor, each strike inflicting heavy injuries.
And this was merely a fraction of the capabilities of Overlord Fist. It could pierce not just Armor but also Air, Breaking Strong, and all defensive measures.
After about sixty continuous hits, Loki’s Body Protection Curse Power suddenly burst, and Leonard Churchill’s hand chopped down on his neck, accompanied by the crisp sound of breaking bones.
This Second Tier Black Knight was dead on the spot.
Leonard Churchill, watching the Extraordinary Traits seep out from the body, finally relaxed with a slumped sigh.
He glanced at the panel: (Curse Power Value 34/34441)
Almost completely depleted.
Still, it was a narrow escape without incident.
….
The entire killing process appeared to involve over a hundred moves, yet it lasted less than a minute.
Vera Williams, who had been observing from a distance, couldn’t understand the martial skills used, only seeing a blur of punches and palm strikes before the newly turned assassin, Loki, lay dead and bloody on the ground.
Vera Williams could no longer describe the shock she felt inside.
Though she guessed Leonard Churchill might be a master, the extent to which she couldn’t comprehend his moves was simply incredible.
He seemed… he seemed to be much weaker, so how did he win?
It was an absolute domination on the levels of fighting skills and martial arts.
“Huff… huff… huff…”
While devouring the Extraordinary Traits from the corpse, Leonard Churchill breathed heavily.
Vera Williams hurried over and asked, “Mr. Leonard Churchill, are you alright?”
Leonard Churchill shook his head, “Just a bit drained, it’s a minor issue.”
He heard footsteps outside the door and glanced once more at the corpse on the ground. Without the leisure for more words, his eyes sharpened, and he said sternly, “You can’t stay in the apartment anymore. Come with me.”
The reason he dared to stay here earlier was because he was certain he could take down the Insider.
Now with his strength depleted again, he couldn’t ensure that he could handle another unforeseen incident.
Moreover, the most important point was that the trouble Vera Williams had stumbled upon seemed to be quite significant.
If she continued to stay in the apartment, she’d be like a fixed target, inevitably attracting endless troubles.
Those troubles were of the kind that even Leonard Churchill in his prime wasn’t sure he could handle.
Only by leaving could they have peace.
And only then could Vera Williams’s safety be maximally ensured.
As well as allowing outside observers to analyze the entire incident.
Vera Williams, after a brief thought, also immediately understood his intention and nodded trustingly, “Mhm!”
But without any experience in traveling alone, especially in such a complex and dangerous situation,
She looked at Leonard Churchill, asked with a slight unease, “Should I bring anything? Um… Should I inform the Commerce Guild?”
“No need! Just come with me,”
Leonard Churchill shook his head.
This was no time for idle chatter.
Having regained a bit of strength, he directly pulled Vera Williams to the window.
Before the lady, who had never climbed a building, could react, he wrapped his arm around her slender waist and leaped down with her.
In mid-air, Vera Williams covered her fluttering skirt while the darkness concealed the blush on her face.
The two silently left without discussing their destination, which would certainly worry the people of the Commerce Guild.
However, Vera Williams’s “sudden disappearance” could ensure the safety of the guild members even more.
With her missing, certain people behind the scenes, unable to find any information, would not dare to act rashly and might even treat the Rose Chamber of Commerce’s apartment as a point to lie in wait.
In this way, the people in the apartment would be safer.
Rather than like today, when Vera Williams and the guards were together, dying in droves.
What they needed to do now was to hide well and not show their faces.
Leonard Churchill grew more curious about what big secret lay hidden behind this incident.
