Just as Cosmo’s dagger was less than twenty centimeters from Robin’s body, it inexplicably halted in mid-air! Then, Cosmo’s face suddenly contorted, and without uttering a sound, his eyes rolled back as he bizarrely kicked the bucket!
What caused his demise was a sword—a sword of purest white! This snow-white blade had pierced Cosmo straight through the heart, its crimson blood now dripping down the length of the steel.
(There’s a saying: He who commits too many injustices will surely meet his end! For people like them, who have done so much wrong, repayment is inevitable.
And today, it was time for them to pay for their sins!) This snow-white sword was none other than Cun Mang, the bone sword currently girded at Robin’s waist! To the utter disbelief of everyone present, Robin had executed this strike without ever glancing back at Cosmo, yet it pierced his heart with uncanny accuracy.
At this turn, the men of the "Double Axe Mercenary Group" could no longer boast; they stared with bulging eyes as Cosmo’s corpse was flung to the ground. This can’t be real, can it?
Their Vice-Commander, who had never failed an ambush, was thwarted just like that, and before even achieving his goal, he was dead—what in the world was happening? What was that white thing clutched in her hand?
Was it a sword? Why did it look so strange?
Why did that sword seem to come alive just now? What was going on?
Too many questions tormented these ignorant fools, their minds nearly shattered by the relentless barrage of puzzles. At this moment, with the sword in hand, Robin’s entire presence had transformed; an aura of peerless dominance radiated from her, mixed with a distinct, bloodthirsty scent!
Robin, originally a Necromancer, had later mastered the Nine Yin Manual, making her essence now profoundly imbued with Yin energy! From the distance, Angeliya watched, her clear, bright eyes wide open, her sensual mouth agape wide enough to swallow a walnut.
Though she had witnessed it, she couldn't fathom how Robin's thrust could have originated from that angle, nor could she understand why the sword seemed to gain a life of its own, bending its path. Why?
Was it the distance? Was her vision playing tricks on her?
Angeliya now regretted not having positioned herself closer. Fred’s regret was immense, profound.
He had never imagined this young slip of a girl possessed such a trick. If he had known even a fraction of it, he wouldn't have dared to provoke Robin, not even if given ten times the courage!
Now, in trying to back him up, two of his comrades had already perished. Even if Robin spared him, his leader, Christopher, would not let him off easily.
Fred began to cry out internally: Heavens above, Earth below, which local Earth God has taken a spite against me? Fortunately, his leader, Christopher, was entirely focused on Robin, perhaps having already forgotten Fred’s existence.
Christopher’s eyes were now bloodshot, fixed upon Robin with an expression that promised to devour her whole. When had he ever been so humiliated?
Two of his men had died right before his eyes, both meeting such gruesome ends! How could he, the leader, tolerate this?
Indeed, this was beyond endurance! Anger, an uncontrollable surge of fury, had obliterated all of Christopher’s rationality; his mind held only one thought: kill Robin!
“All of you, attack together! You must destroy her!
Anyone who dares retreat will be executed without mercy!” Christopher snarled through gritted teeth. Influenced by his emotion, the others adopted fierce expressions; it seemed they were finally preparing to get serious.
“Servants slumbering within me, please open your eyes and heed my command! Come forth, my Magical Beast—Fire Wolf!” These men were beginning to summon their contracted Magical Beasts.
“Spirit of Ice and Snow, transform into a Ripper and obliterate my enemies!!!!” “Flame, heed my call, serve me with your inextinguishable fire!!!!” “My very life, become Wind Blades, carry the resolve of no return, and sever the throats of my foes!!!!!!” “In the name of the Primordial Elements of Heaven and Earth, summon the thunder from all directions, lend me the power of the lightning from the Twelve Realms, combining thunder and lightning in blue fire and white light, sweep away all enemies!!!!!!” “……” There were quite a few mages in the "Double Axe Mercenary Group," and now they all began casting their spells. It was clear they would not rest until Robin was dead!
Vast quantities of magical elements began to condense madly before these mages; the spells were on the verge of completion, and Robin was about to face a relentless barrage of attacks. At this moment, Angeliya grew truly tense.
The scenario she most dreaded had materialized. She had not anticipated that the "Double Axe Mercenary Group" harbored so many mages and possessed so many Magical Beasts.
An assault by this many people against one individual—no one could withstand it! Angeliya wanted to rush forward, but she knew even if she intervened, it would be useless.
Furthermore, help from afar was no match for immediate danger. Her only hope now was that Robin would quickly vacate her position, thereby mitigating the impact.
Yet, Robin hadn't moved an inch. She showed no intention of dodging!
Robin clearly held these aggressors in utter contempt. Setting aside her command of Dark Sorcery, the tenth stance of her newly learned Dugu Nine Swords—the "Magic Breaking Stance"—was more than sufficient to counter these mages.
True powerhouses bear no obligation to accommodate the weak by deliberately evading! However, just as the mages’ spells were nearing completion, Zhong Shenxiu slowly walked toward Robin, murmuring as if to himself, “So many people bullying a child; this is truly beyond measureless shamelessness.
Very well, I suppose I’ll join the fun.” No one had expected Zhong Shenxiu to intervene! Since arriving in this other world, he had never crossed swords with anyone, yet now he was preparing to make his move!
Everyone saw Zhong Shenxiu, believing this little brat to be utterly foolish. Instead of escaping quickly, he was deliberately moving into the kill zone—wasn't that seeking death?
Not only the "Double Axe Mercenary Group" thought this, but even Angeliya felt that the boy was being incredibly idiotic, only adding trouble for the girl. Why couldn't he just stay put on the side?
Must he run out and court death while dragging others down with him! Seeing Zhong Shenxiu approach, the cold beauty of Robin’s expression softened considerably.
Just as Robin was about to speak, Zhong Shenxiu cut her off. “Leave all the mages to me!” Zhong Shenxiu said with a faint smile, his tone exceptionally level.
No one could truly grasp the immense weight of those words! None!
