PDLP Chapter 233 Scar Man
Chapter 233 Scar Man
The three stone spirits simultaneously brought good news, proving that the stone monsters were no match for them, and the stone spirits also displayed their prowess.
However, the stone monsters were no pushovers either. They outnumbered the stone spirits, who were not as powerful as Lin Tian and his group. Under Wen's attack, they quickly succumbed to the onslaught.
"Miss Shi, they..."
Seeing this, Adeline was also very anxious. She was very excited when the stone golems were summoned, but because there were too few of them, they were quickly overwhelmed by the stone monsters, which made Adeline nervous again.
You can't do this!
Adeline was about to complain, but she shut her mouth the next second because the Stone Mother raised her hand again, and with a flash of light, another group of stone spirits appeared. This time, there were more than ten of them! Several times more than before.
After their initial numerical disadvantage was overcome, the Stone Spirits began to gradually expand their advantages. Stone Phosphorus acted as a warrior, responsible for front-line resistance; Stone Cangcang acted as a damage dealer, constantly using quartz to smash others; and Stone Shuangshuang acted as an assassin, continuously unleashing flying kicks from the sidelines, hitting their targets with every kick.
Meanwhile, Lin Tian and Shi Gan's side also frequently reported good news. These three were all formidable figures, and it would be extremely difficult for the group of stone monsters to kill them.
In a short while, most of the stone monsters in the four caves had been eliminated, with only a few remaining to put up a stubborn resistance. However, to Lin Tian's surprise, even so, the stone monsters showed no intention of escaping and pounced on Lin Tian and his companions as if they had gone mad.
But Lin Tian wouldn't hold back. He swung his long staff and instantly swept down a large group of them. With the last stone monster falling, Lin Tian and his team successfully won the battle.
"Why did you stop?"
Lin Tian woke Adeline, who was in a daze. Adeline immediately turned to look at her host, her eyes filled with panic.
Fortunately, Lin Tian didn't mind Adeline's sudden stop. He simply let her continue casting spells after clearing out the stone monsters.
Adeline breathed a sigh of relief. Lin Tian had clearly seen that she wanted to run away at the last minute, so she was inevitably a little guilty. Now that Lin Tian wasn't pursuing the matter, she was naturally relieved. After all, if Lin Tian had wanted to stop her, with the formidable strength he had just displayed, she might not have been able to escape.
Next, Adeline continued to manipulate the magic circle. After the magic circle ended, Lin Tian received both good news and bad news.
The bad news was that there was no trace of psionic minerals in this cliff. The good news was that, apart from this cliff, there was only one other cliff left to explore. Lin Tian breathed a sigh of relief. Whether there were psionic minerals here or not would soon be revealed.
After helping Adeline pack her luggage, Lin Tian and the others stepped out of the main cave and headed towards the last cliff face.
...........
"Boss, they're out!"
On a high rock on the cliff not far from Lin Tian and his group, dozens of people were eyeing them menacingly.
The leader was a man with a scar on his face. Judging from the aura emanating from him, he was clearly a Gold-ranked individual.
Beside him stood a man with a rooster-like hairstyle, who, judging from his posture, was clearly the scarred man's second-in-command.
The man with the chicken head was dressed rather lightly, wearing only a leather vest on his upper body, revealing his thin skin, which didn't look good.
Moreover, there was a deep claw-shaped scar on the man's chest, clearly indicating that he had been injured by someone.
"It seems the stone monster couldn't stop them."
The two listened to their subordinate's report together. After the subordinate reported Lin Tian's movements, the scarred man didn't speak, but he spoke first.
The scarred man didn't respond, and judging from his expression, he seemed somewhat dissatisfied with the chicken-headed man.
The pimp knew what his boss was unhappy about, so after a few seconds of hesitation, he turned and apologized to the scarred man.
"I'm sorry, boss, it's my fault that we didn't finish that job. I didn't expect that woman to be so strong! Those claws were so sharp, my wound still hurts!"
The scarred man glared at him, after all, he had sent the pimp to pick up the goods, but not only did he fail to do so, he also got into a fight with a woman and lost the fight.
This was truly an insult to the reputation of his Sand Gold Gang. He was so angry at the time that he almost wanted to replace this second-in-command. However, he has now come to a realization. He knows that the Chicken Head Man is quite strong, so he can't be blamed for losing. He has also recently heard about the woman's exploits. He heard that several high-ranking members of the Freedom Society have lost to her. She is indeed quite formidable.
Having figured it out, the scarred man patted the chicken-headed man on the shoulder, signifying his forgiveness. He then picked up where the chicken-headed man left off, saying:
"Although those stone monsters are not strong individually, their combined strength is enough to make even me fear them. I was a little surprised that they survived being surrounded by stone monsters, but I can only blame myself for underestimating them."
"But since that's the case, they've also been through a major battle, and I'm sure their strength has been greatly depleted. If we go forward now, they won't be a match for us."
As the scarred man spoke, his eyes filled with confidence, as if he felt that Lin Tian was already fish on a chopping board and that he was determined to get him.
"What the boss said makes sense."
Seeing that his boss had forgiven him, the chicken-headed man breathed a sigh of relief and quickly echoed his boss's words.
"Hmph~ That's natural."
"However, even so, we still can't let our guard down. After all, this is someone we were specifically ordered to kill. If we fail..."
"I see."
The man with the chicken head was the scarred man's confidant, so he naturally knew who the scarred man was talking about, and a hint of fear appeared in his eyes when he saw this.
Have you prepared what I asked you to prepare?
"Ready! Ready!"
As he spoke, the man with the chicken head reached into his pocket, and a scroll quickly appeared in his hand.
Tear it apart!
hum~
The scroll activated, and a layer of light and shadow enveloped everyone, making their figures transparent until they could only see each other.
"This is a concealment scroll that I bought at a high price. It was made by a professor from the Arcane Academy. Even a Gold-rank mage wouldn't be able to find out where we are, let alone those guys."
Hearing the chicken-headed man's words, the scarred man nodded in agreement. In terms of magic scrolls, the Arcane Academy was the authority, and the scrolls made by them were trusted by superhumans.
However, seemingly remembering the chicken-headed man's past offenses, the scarred man still felt uneasy, so he put his arm around the chicken-headed man's shoulder and said:
"Will this time be okay?"
"Won't!!"
"That's what the chicken-headed man said confidently."
