Chapter 532 - 532: Not Bad
Tristan kept falling from the sky rapidly. He didn't have any ability which could help him fly. Kellian was trying to save him, but all the help he sent was being teleported to a different place
Standing in the distance, Zhu had a wide grin on his face as he was waiting for the fall of Tristan.
He didn't even bother with defense.
"Hmm?"
His snake barrier appeared behind him as an explosion took place.
"That's an interesting ability you have there," he turned to glance at Dallas. "I'm interested in you too. Keep performing, and maybe I'll give you the same offer. In the meantime, I'll watch the show."
He again looked at Tristan.
Tristan kept getting closer and closer to the ground. The distance of a hundred feet turned to fifty and then to thirty. It only decreased faster as his speed increased.
Kellian kept trying to save him, but nothing he could do was working. Even his shadows were out of bounds in this teleport.
Finally, the distance between Tristan's face and hand ground remained only five feet.
As his face reached only a few inches away from the ground, Tristan's body stopped, remaining mid-air.
"What?" Zhu frowned. He was expecting a splash and blood everywhere, but Tristan stopped, and now he was floating in the air. Moreover, no one was nearby.
Roar~
The roaring of the clouds resounded as winds increased, taking all the mist away with it, clearing the path.
The mist was removed to reveal half the Uprising Members who were still alive. The Warlock Council members were still perfectly fine; however, they also started dropping on the ground, one after another, as the winds sliced their throats.
The winds that looked ordinary didn't become grim reapers as they sliced the heads of the Warlocks.
Same wind blades attacked Zhu, but his shield appeared again as the snake hissed, protecting Zhu from the attacks.
Just to be safe, Jenilia and a few Warlocks had also cast a shield around them who had the ability to use shields as soon as they saw the strange behavior of wind.
Despite that, most of the Warlocks were dead. Only ten or so survived.
"Do we have a new guest?" Zhu smirked, noticing the strange winds. He was sure that the Uprising Members couldn't do it. If they could, they would have done it already.
"Are you alright?" A calm voice fell in the ears of Tristan as Lucifer flew to him.
"So you finally got here. About time," Tristan muttered, sighing. "I thought I was gone today."
"Can't let you die now, can I?" Lucifer asked, smiling as he landed beside Tristan.
The winds gently placed Tristan on the ground.
"Ah, the sketches were of you. I really didn't think that it was true. You are just a kid. Are you even eighteen? Becoming a leader of such Calibre at such a young age? Not bad."
Lucifer lazily ribbed his neck as he turned around.
"Killing so many of my men. Not bad either," Lucifer responded.
"Hahaha, I was just having fun. But it's good. You're here. I was starting to get bored. So let me guess how you saved that man. Did you use your wind to hold him? Even if I teleport wind, more will take its place. So it won't work, isn't it right?" Zhu asked.
Lucifer didn't answer him. Instead, he looked at the cat in the hand of Zhu and the Snake.
He couldn't help but wonder what would happen if he could take the powers of Zhu. Will he become a summoner? It wasn't the same as taking the powers of a Warlock. Summoning didn't just depend on the ability but more factors as well.
Could he still be able to summon that cat after that? That seemed unlikely since that beast was bonded with Zhu. Even if he got his powers, he couldn't summon that cat.
His summoned beast depended on his natural affinity, and it could be anyone. It could be that cat, or it could also be a random beast that was useless.
He also realized that if he turned Zhu into an undead, would he be able to control the cat? That seemed unlikely too, since these beasts weren't inanimate powers.
"Are you thinking about how you can kill me?" Zhu asked, smiling. "But what's the hurry? Let's continue the game. I'll toss him in the sky again, and you have to catch him. And you can use your wind."
"Because this time, I won't be teleporting the wind. I'll be teleporting him to random places. If you can prevent his death, you'll win. And if you can't, we'll play with someone else."
"What if I win?" Lucifer asked.
"Then I'll let all the Warlocks of your team leave safely. How's that?" Zhu inquired. He had faith in himself, so he was sure that it was impossible for Lucifer to win.
"I have a better game instead. I wonder if you're interested," Lucifer answered.
All the Uprising Warlocks had started gathering behind him.
Jenilia kept staring at Lucifer, unable to believe what was right in front of her eyes. It was actually Lucifer. She was wrong, and Jia was right. This guy had fooled her on the ship and in the car, lying to her again and again?
She didn't know what to think right now. She had considered Lucifer a good friend that was nothing more than a civilian, but it was all nothing but a feeble illusion.
Zhu patted the small cat in his hand. "What game? If you have anything better, do suggest."
"Ten minutes. You have five minutes to kill Tristan. If you can't kill him, I'll win, and the others can leave. If I win, you win, and you can go again. How's that?" Lucifer asked.
"That's even better. The fall would take less than five minutes after all. I accept."
"You won't go back on your words?"
"I won't. I promise on my dignity as a Warlock Council leader. If you can keep Tristan alive for the next five minutes, I'll let all your team members leave alive."
"Deal then." Lucifer looked at his clock. "Your time starts now "
"Heh." Zhu tapped the head of the black cat gently.
Lucifer kept looking at Zhu, whose smile started disappearing. Soon, his looks changed to a frown as his brows furrowed.
He looked at the little cat. "Little guy, stop playing with me. I don't have time. Please help me."
The cat purred innocently as she closed her eyes firmly. It glared at Tristan and tried again, ultimately shaking her head.
"What happened suddenly?" Zhu muttered. "Your powers don't work now?"
"Try teleporting me."
