Chapter 700 Distress Signal
Chapter 700 Distress Signal
Even among the Dark Faction and the group of people Murkel had brought with him today, many didn\'t know much about each other or the strength they held. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
The only one who had some idea was Murkel himself. He hadn\'t directly fought with everyone under him. At times, one could evaluate who would win without a fight.
There were other times when some would still test the waters, and Murkel would have to show his strength.
In Murkel\'s mind, he had brought everyone for a reason, and the twins from the Tulip Clan were no different. He wasn\'t worried about them for a very particular reason.
Both Lin and Lulu then held hands, and something strange was occurring, something that the system couldn\'t quite see.
Right after, Lin swung her sister Lulu, and as they let go, Lulu picked up immense speed, traveling right toward Anna, the metal fan pointed out.
Quickly, Anna lifted her hand, and Liam came in to help, but he was too slow to do anything.
Anna was no longer using the sword she had picked up because she was focusing on the strength that her system and machine-like body would give her.
She lifted her hand again, ready to blast the attack ahead. Energy beamed out from her hand, but when it hit the metal fan, the powerful surge of Qi completely deflected it.
The fan continued forward and pierced right through Anna\'s hand from one side to the other, almost as if there was no resistance at all.
Immediately, Lulu pulled out the fan and then swung it at Anna\'s hand that was going for a strike. It was completely knocked out of the way.
Anna quickly tried to fire two blasts out of her hand, but faster than before, Lulu knocked them away, and the blasts ended up hitting the ground.
She burst forward, opened up the fan, and swung it, cutting up part of Anna\'s body bit by bit. Anna was on the defensive, and she wouldn\'t be able to keep this up for much longer.
\'How? How can this be?\' Anna thought. \'We weren\'t that much different in strength, but suddenly she\'s gotten a whole lot stronger.\'
While Lulu was fighting against Anna, Lin decided to get in the way of Liam. The two were fighting against each other.
"I need to help, so get out of my way!" Liam threw his weapons up in the air and charged forward using fist techniques.
Right after using fist techniques, with the juggling arts, he grabbed both of his swords and managed to deal a heavy blow.
All of the attacks were blocked, but the attacks seemed to strain Lin as she stopped them.
\'What\'s going on?\' Liam thought. \'Am I fighting a lot better now that the system is connected? Did it give me some type of boost in strength?\'
[Negative, it appears your opponent has gotten weaker.]
Liam was about to retort back to the system, thinking it was making fun of him, but when he blocked a strike with a single hand from Lin, he realized that it was true.
There would be no way he could block a strike from a middle-stage warrior.
"What did you do?" Liam couldn\'t help but ask, and he could see a large smirk appear just behind the fan as it was lowered in view.
"What, you don\'t like the fact that the two of us are fighting on equal grounds? Would you rather fight me like we were fighting before?" Lin asked.
She continued to strike, and the two of them seemed to be even as they blocked and countered each other\'s strikes. Yet Lin didn\'t appear nervous at all.
Once in a while, loud crashing bangs and slight grunts of pain could be heard from behind, and it wasn\'t coming from the other sister.
The two sisters were certainly unique, having special constitutions with both of them being twins.
Both were middle-stage warriors around the middle level. They were skilled and strong, but what made them deadly was something special to them that only they could do.
Temporarily, one could lend the other their Qi. It would make one of the sisters weaker while growing the other in strength, making them have the power of a high middle-stage warrior.
They had passed on just enough Qi to keep Liam busy while Lulu dealt with the more troublesome one.
"Enough playing games, it\'s time to end it!" Lulu said as she spun her body and swung her fan out. A large wave of power hit Anna, and then a force greater than she felt before hit her like a house.
She was lifted off her feet. The blow felt like it was crushing her internals, and she was pushed back, crashing right into the arena wall.
She fell on the ground, blood spilling from her mouth, and was unable to move. It would take a long time for her body to recover from this.
Yet, she still managed to move her head as she looked at the young boy.
"He\'s dead," Anna said. "And now my only lead to Zon will be gone."
Liam looked at Lin, who still had the strange smirk on her face, and when she backed away, now right in front of him was Lulu.
He went to strike forward, but Lulu knocked his hand. It felt like a small tap. With just that alone, a cracking noise was heard, and now his arm appeared to be bent out in a different way.
Right after, she lifted her leg and slammed it on top of his shoulder, popping it out and sending Liam to the floor.
"You two needed to get off your high horse. We are the Dark Faction. We didn\'t get to this position by losing to the likes of you," Lulu said as she readied her fan and started to pour Qi into it.
At the same time though, a ringing pain was starting to be felt at the back of Liam\'s neck.
