Chapter 324: Chapter 222: Encountering the Night Witch Again! Slaying a Powerful Foe! Epic Reward

"Damn it!"

The fatal wound caused bloodshot veins to spread across Morais’s eyes. The two Thunder Swords in his hands flared with a blinding light as he angrily slashed at Su Xuan.

The thunderous force of the attack compelled Su Xuan to dodge swiftly, evading the sharp blow.

After temporarily forcing Su Xuan back, Morais looked down at his chest, where a gruesome, bloody hole gaped.

Although he was a Law Enforcement Knight and had long been prepared to sacrifice his life for his duty, he had never imagined he would fall to such a young opponent.

"COUGH, COUGH! To think I’d fall because I underestimated him..."

Morais coughed up a mouthful of blood. Not even the most skilled Priest in the Star Kingdom could save his life now. Only death awaited him.

As his words fell, a brilliant golden light burst from the wound on Morais’s chest.

Seeing this, Su Xuan’s expression instantly turned grim.

’Knight’s Whisper!’

He had seen this move before. It could instantly restore a heavily injured body to peak condition.

However, the cost was immense, as it also signaled that the user’s life was about to end.

"But I’ve lived long enough," Morais muttered to himself. "As long as I can bring you back to Lord Tyres, it will be repayment for his kindness to my family!"

As he finished speaking, the golden light in the wound gradually transformed into blue lightning, rapidly mending the injuries on his body.

Morais’s aura surged at that moment, growing even more powerful than before.

"You won’t get the chance," Su Xuan said calmly, then lightly snapped his fingers.

In an instant, dozens of Magic Arrays materialized in the sky, tightly encircling Morais.

He hadn’t stood by patiently while Morais was healing. He had already begun silently casting the Super-tier Magic—Elemental Burst.

With the Elf Queen’s three blessings, his Elemental Damage was amplified by 500%. Combined with the Fire Element boost from the Thunderfire Staff and the 200% Elemental Damage increase from the Elf Mother Tree’s baptism, the Super-tier Magic he was now unleashing possessed an unprecedented level of terrifying power.

Instantly, the dozens of Magic Arrays erupted with multicolored light as immense Elemental Power gathered within them.

The intense Elemental fluctuations made Morais’s face turn pale in an instant. He couldn’t fathom how a human could not only transform into a Half-Dragon-man but also possess the Power of a Vampire.

He had even assumed Su Xuan specialized in close combat, never expecting his Magic to be this astonishing as well.

"Vanish."

As Su Xuan’s voice faded, the countless Magic Arrays burst into brilliant light, like fireworks being ignited all at once!

Scorching flames, raging winds...

All kinds of Elemental Powers erupted from the Magic Arrays, completely devouring Morais’s body.

"No—!"

Morais let out an indignant roar, his hoarse voice gradually fading amidst the torrent of Elemental Power.

When all the Elements gradually subsided, Morais’s figure vanished completely, as if it had been erased without a trace.

Only a lightning-bolt-shaped Crystal Stone, shimmering with a mysterious blue light, remained, quietly floating in midair.

[Killed Star Knight Morais. EXP +200,000!]

"Whew~"

Su Xuan took a deep breath. He had used all his trump cards and finally, just barely, defeated the Level 78 Star Knight.

The moment the battle was decided, Mare Rhine separated from his body, returning to her original form.

She crossed her arms, her eyes twinkling with excitement, and said with a smile, "Human! My Power is amazing, isn’t it?"

"Yeah..."

Su Xuan was about to force a smile in response to Mare Rhine.

The next second, however, as his All Attributes returned to normal, the weakness from his depleted Magic Power hit him instantly. Su Xuan’s mind spun, and his body involuntarily tilted forward.

"President!"

The Elf Sisters hurriedly caught Su Xuan, one on each side, just as he was about to collapse.

Rosaline also rushed to Su Xuan’s side, her eyes, as brilliant as a starry sky, staring at him in utter disbelief.

’So strong!’

She had never, ever imagined that her Guild President could unleash such astonishing power. It far surpassed everything she had previously known about Su Xuan.

The image of the somewhat weak Guild President she once held in her mind was instantly replaced by that of a valiant and heroic Warrior!

"Was the toll too great?"

After a brief moment of confusion, Su Xuan gradually regained his senses.

"Human, it’s perfectly normal that you can’t handle my Power!"

Mare Rhine said with a triumphant smile, "I’m no ordinary Giant Dragon, you know. My Power of Destruction is far greater than you can imagine! And that was just my weakest form. If I get the chance, I’ll show you my other, more powerful forms!"

"I’d actually look forward to that."

Su Xuan replied to Mare Rhine, raising an eyebrow with a hint of interest.

’So [Multiple Combat Forms] can be used like this? That’s a bit unexpected.’

Seeing Su Xuan’s expectant gaze, Mare Rhine proudly puffed out her chest, thoroughly enjoying the moment!

Of course, she didn’t tell Su Xuan that she had only acquired these powers after her rebirth. In other words, the source of this power was actually Su Xuan himself; she had merely provided her body as a vessel for it.

"What’s that?"

Su Xuan’s attention was drawn to the blue, lightning-bolt-shaped Crystal Stone left behind after Morais’s death. He walked over, bent down, picked it up, and examined it closely.

[Thunder Crystal (Epic): A crystal imbued with Thunderous Might. Can be socketed into a weapon to amplify Thunder Element power by 100%! Absorbs 50% of Thunder Element Damage!]

"A decent haul."

Su Xuan satisfyingly placed the Thunder Crystal into his backpack. This Crystal Stone was a perfect fit for his Thunderfire Staff!

However, socketing this Epic Level Thunder Crystal into the Thunderfire Staff seemed to require the skills of an Advanced Blacksmith. It looked like he would have to seek the help of that Player named "Hong" again.

Speaking of which, the very first friend he had added since starting the game was this Player named "Hong."

Although they had never actually met, Su Xuan was very curious about this mysterious friend.

"Let’s head back."

After putting away the Thunder Crystal, Su Xuan was about to activate the Teleportation Array to return to the Guild.

He had killed two Star Knights here and needed to leave as quickly as possible to avoid being discovered by Prince Tyres’s forces.

"CLAP, CLAP, CLAP~"

The sudden, crisp sound of clapping made Su Xuan’s body stiffen slightly, but he didn’t stop activating the Teleportation Array, lest his escape route be cut off.

Along with the applause, a familiar, clear female voice rang out leisurely:

"How truly astonishing, Guild President Su Xuan. I never thought you’d be able to defeat Morais, the Thunder Knight ranked tenth in the Star Kingdom. It would be such a pity if you couldn’t be of use to me."

Hearing this, Su Xuan stopped what he was doing and turned to look.

The Princess with the sinister golden light glinting in her eyes had appeared before him once again...
