Chapter 17 - Chapter 17

Rey moved as fast as the wind, running past passers-by, and people could only see a blurry shadow.

Seeing that he was almost there, his figure stopped suddenly.

The reason was that there was a little girl whose feet got stuck in the crevices of the rocks, tears hanging in her big eyes, and she tried her best not to cry.

Not less than a few seconds.

Rey walked over and helped her lift the stone. The stone was quite heavy and required both hands to hold it. She didn't know how she got it stuck.

"Thank you, big brother."

The cute little girl looked up to him with a kind smile on her face.

"You're welcome."

Rey was about to put down the stone when he suddenly felt a chill in his waist.

The little girl took out a long knife from somewhere in her hand and was stabbing him with the blade.

Rey was shocked and immediately turned around.

If he hadn't been prepared and his strength had improved a lot, he would never have been able to avoid it this time.

The girl's long knife missed the target at a slight distance, and she seemed to have anticipated the possibility of Rey escaping the blow.

The long knife whirled her body and struck with the second blow.

"flash".

The dazzling light delayed the little girl's attack, making it impossible to find Rey's specific location.

"Wind wall."

A wall made of cyan wind blocked the long knife.

Rey took the opportunity to throw away the stone and distance himself.

Magic double cast instantly.

With today's combat power, this is a technique that only Rey, who has mastered primary magic, can achieve.

He looked at the little girl from a distance.

Her little face was tense, exuding a faint murderous aura.

The pure killing intent he felt for the first time made his hair stand on end.

The next moment, the girl rushed towards Rey at an astonishing speed.

(So ​​fast!)

The opponent uses magic to strengthen physical strength, and Rey can do it, but it consumes a lot of money, and he cannot fight for a long time.

Now that the other party has used it, he naturally can't hold back. Judging from the fluctuations in magic power, his level is higher.

But what surprised him was that the opponent's speed suddenly accelerated, only a little slower than him.

Rey calmly caught the girl's movements, pulled out his sword, and the golden light suddenly appeared, and he used all his strength as soon as he struck out – Light God-style swordsmanship.

The girl's eyes widened slightly in surprise, and she forcefully took back the long knife she was preparing to attack with.

Her petite body jumped up lightly. She jumped up to dodge, grabbed a branch, and easily climbed up the tree with a horizontal bar movement.

Retracting and releasing the sword freely, Rey kicked the ground hard, jumped up with wind magic, and flew straight towards the girl.

The girl took her hands back into her arms and threw out a few throwing knives.

Rey drew his sword in the air and slashed horizontally.

There was a sharp sound of metal colliding.

The girl jumped down from the branch, and Rey stood where she was just now.

The branch couldn't bear the weight and broke. Rey fell down and used wind magic to resist the impact.

The girl calculated the right moment for him to land, came closer, and swung the long knife at Rey's body.

Rey looked indifferent, resisted the attack with his long sword, and slapped it out with his free hand.

This palm hit firmly.

As she flew out, the girl tilted her head slightly and blew into Rey's neck with her mouth, holding a bamboo flute-like tube in her mouth.

Feeling the stinging pain in his neck, Rey frowned.

His strength was much higher than that of his opponent, but the girl almost never faced him head-on. She suffered from her lack of combat experience, and he was hit by a poisonous arrow.

With trembling hands, Rey used light and water magic to suppress the poison, while the girl picked up receptors in the air and re-established her attack stance.

The girl rushed over again, and Rey seemed to be unstable due to poisoning.

The next moment, the girl slashed Rey's face with a long knife.

However, Rey's speed increased by several per cent again. He leaned back to avoid the attack and swept the girl's body with his legs while the long knife brushed her face, causing the girl's body to lose balance.

He grabbed the girl's wrist, took away the long knife, and threw her up. The girl's back hit the tree.

What Rey didn't expect was that the girl would spin her body in the air.

While adjusting her balance, use her feet to absorb the impact.

She kicked the tree trunk hard and flew out like a spring, leaping towards Rey at a faster speed. The silver light was cold, and it was her spare knife.

Her combat intuition and ability to adjust are like a beast, which is admirable.

but.

(Sorry, the strength gap is really too big.)

Frontal attack was her biggest mistake.

Wind magic was attached to the whole body in advance. Rey turned his body sideways, grabbed the girl's arm when she flew over, used an over-the-shoulder throw, and slammed the girl to the ground.

"Whoa!"

The girl's back was hit, and she let out a painful cry. Her limbs lost strength, and she let go of the knife in her hand.

Rey kicked the long knife away, sat on the girl unceremoniously, and pushed her down.

"I just have one question: who sent you here?"

Stared at by Rey's cold eyes, the girl showed deep fear.

"No, no, if the mission fails, I will die. I will die, no, no."

The girl shook her head desperately and kept struggling, but she couldn't exert any strength, so she could only cry helplessly.

"Hey, calm down."

Rey tried to reassure her.

"Woo woo woo, save me, Mom, save me. I don't want to live in this world anymore; I want to go back to Earth."

Rey heard a message that was impossible to ignore.

This world, Earth.

Wha, what do you mean, she came from the same world as me?

Rey put the sword into its sheath and suppressed the few murderous intentions.

His mind was a little confused.

The girl was emotionally unstable and couldn't communicate at all, so he knocked her unconscious.

In order to make her lose the threat when she wakes up, Rey removes the knife and poisonous needle from her body.

On the way, he discovered that the girl was wearing a collar – a slave collar – on her neck, which was covered by clothing.

This is troublesome; her life is in the control of others.

Perhaps it was precisely because of this that the girl had to kill him.

Although there are many things I want to ask, the matter has not been resolved yet, and I don't know what's going on with Kai.

He took the girl to the door and knocked on the door, but there was no response at all.

Rey forced his way in, walked into the room where he had eaten yesterday, and breathed a sigh of relief.

Kai was tied up, and his mouth was sealed with tape. His nose was bruised and his face was swollen, but he was still alive.

Rey put the little girl aside and then untied the rope from Kai, who looked at the little girl with fear in his eyes.

Then he reacted again, full of shock.

Such a powerful girl was defeated. What kind of strength is Rey?

Kai couldn't help but feel a little lucky. Fortunately, he didn't make Rey angry before; otherwise, he would be gone if he saw him unhappy.

By the way, are there missing people?

Kai jumped up and said, "Brother, where's Lynn? I was beaten and then tied up. Have you seen Lynn?"

After getting a negative answer, Kai immediately rushed to the other room, while Rey followed the faint sound to the other door.

What is this place for?

He thought for a moment and then opened the door.

What caught the eye was the girl's delicate skin, covered with white flowers, which was really dazzling.

Lynn's hands and feet were tied. She seemed to have been taking a shower, so the rope naturally had no shielding effect.

The two looked at each other. Lynn's face was as red as boiling, while Rey looked around as if he hadn't seen anything, preparing to leave.

"Ugh!"

Lynn moved her body, attracted his attention, and signalled for him to help.

Rey sighed; he wanted to pretend not to see it, but Kai misunderstood him again.

No way.

He closed the door and walked towards the girl.
