Looking forward to another world.

"boom!"

In the corner of the courtyard, Brian slammed into a pile of practice swords that hadn't started, knocking those swords into pieces and flying them all over the ground.

"cough……!"

Brian, on the other hand, seemed to spit out all the air in his lungs, and coughed violently, giving people the feeling that he was about to cough up blood.

Li Ge's kick wasn't too heavy, at least with Brian's physique, he wouldn't vomit blood after being kicked.

But that kick stunned Brian, and he fell to the ground, maintaining the posture of falling to the ground, and he didn't recover for a long time.

"you……"

After regaining consciousness, Brian looked at Li Ge, his eyes full of disbelief.

Not only Brian, but also the performance of the rest of the people present.

"Catch, caught...?"

Clem was dumbfounded.

"That knife just now..."

Ge Gelan also looked at Li Ge in shock.

"You actually used your fingers...to hold that knife...?"

Evileye couldn't believe her eyes.

Everyone was like this, stunned, the way they looked at Li Ge changed again and again, I don't know how many emotions have been replaced.

Even Gazef, who had seen Li Ge's strength a long time ago and was bounced off by Li Ge's [Six Lights Slash], couldn't help but show surprise. It is conceivable that Li Ge clamped Brian with his fingers just now How terrifying is the way the knife was cut.

To put it bluntly, the knife that Bryan just slashed was already difficult for even the existence of the hero domain to respond.

At the very least, existences like Gazef and Gagran, who are only one step away from the hero realm, don't think they can easily take that slash and block that slash.

That was indeed the ultimate strike of Brian Anglos, a genius swordsman who exhausted all of his abilities, and it was a stunt that even the existences in the Hero Domain would marvel at.

However, in Li Ge's eyes, that kind of stunt was not enough.

"As a gift in return, I'll give you a knife too."

Li Ge's voice sounded slowly.

"Don't blink, maybe this is the blow you should be after."

As he spoke, Li Ge slowly put his hand on the knife at his waist with a particularly slow movement.

At this moment, a deadly sense of crisis once again erupted deep in the hearts of everyone present, causing everyone to involuntarily show expressions of horror.

"Wait……!"

Especially Brian, when he realized that Li Ge was about to draw a knife on him, he couldn't help but changed his face and prepared to speak out.

But it was too late to prepare to speak out at this time.

"breathe--"

This is the sound of breathing clearly echoing in everyone's ears.

It's like the vibration of the air.

It's like the pulse of the world.

"Crackling—"

The sound of thunder and lightning surged along with the clearly audible breathing, causing waves of lightning to surge out and wrap around Li Ge's body.

"Thunder's Breath · One Shape..."

When such whispers sounded as if they sounded from the depths of the earth, all the brilliance in the entire courtyard disappeared.

It was replaced by a thunderbolt.

Lightning flashed in front of everyone's eyes.

The slash was also in everyone's consciousness, as if it had been deliberately slowed down, it was fleeting.

When the world returned to its original color and Lei Guang disappeared without knowing when, everyone realized that Li Ge was no longer where he was, but appeared behind Brian.

"Crack..."

With a slight sound, he put away the knife.

"A flash of thunder."

With his back to Brian, Li Ge spoke out in such a calm voice, calling out the name of the knife just now.

"------"

Quiet.

Deathly silence.

At this moment, everyone lost their voices, reactions, and even their souls. They just stared blankly at the scene in front of them and stopped moving.

In their minds, there was only that lightning bolt and that stunning slash, and there was no second thing other than that.

Even for Brian.

"A flash of thunder..."

Brian had no energy left to turn around and look at Li Ge, he just stood there, uttering the name blankly.

His body was shaking.

His hand holding the knife was also shaking.

The clothes on his chest were torn apart, and were cut neatly, but did not hurt the flesh underneath.

Of course, Brian knew that it wasn't because the other party couldn't do it, but because the other party was merciful and deliberately didn't hurt himself, which led to this result.

Li Ge's voice sounded again.

"If you want to make an evaluation of the entire human race, you must at least be able to swing the knife just now to be considered qualified."

"Otherwise, just because you, a person who has not even stepped into the hero realm, what qualifications do you have to judge the strength of human beings casually?"

"If you haven't seen the end point that human beings can reach, why do you think that even if you reach there, it's nothing special?"

"In the final analysis, you are just arrogant. You arrogantly think that you are already one of the strongest among human beings, so when you feel hopeless, human beings can only feel hopeless."

"As everyone knows, you are just watching the sky from a well."

Li Ge came out from behind Brian and came in front of him.

"Now you understand how strong humans can be if they really become stronger?"

Li Ge smiled at Brian.

"By the way, one of the two so-called monsters you met in the northern forest of E-Rantel was me."

These words shocked Brian's heart.

"you……?"

He opened his eyes wide and looked at Li Ge with even stronger shock than before.

"That's right." Li Ge nodded, and said very calmly: "That night, I met that vampire in that forest and had a fight with her."

"It's just that I didn't expect that you were there at that time, and because of that battle, you were reduced to what you are now."

"So, if you really want to talk about it, you will become like this, I am half of the fault, right?"

That being said, there was no trace of apology on Li Ge's face.

This is also of course.

"Who told you to be a thief at that time? Is it a retribution?"

Li Ge grinned and said this to Brian.

"It's true that you want to become stronger, but you still have to think carefully about how to become stronger, otherwise, it will be the end?"

After leaving such words, Li Ge turned around and ignored Brian.

"I'm done here, the rest is up to you." Li Ge said to Gazef, "Is there no problem?"

"Yes, yes." Only then did Gazef react, and he continued: "This is enough, thank you, Your Excellency."

"Then I'll go back to the hotel first." Li Ge nodded and said, "If you have anything to do, come find me at the hotel."

"Yes." Gazef bowed his head towards Li Ge, and said, "Go slowly."

Li Ge smiled, nodded to the others, and then walked out of the courtyard and left here.

Only Brian was left, still standing there blankly, without responding for a long time.

It wasn't until this time that everyone present came back to their senses, and involuntarily approached Gazef.

Gazef came in front of Brian, looked at Brian standing there blankly, and couldn't help showing worry on his face.

"Angelaus." Gazef called lightly, and said, "Are you alright?"

The rest of the people also looked at Brian, worried about his state.

Under the gaze of everyone, Brian lowered his head, his shoulders began to tremble.

Just when everyone thought that Brian had been greatly stimulated and his mentality was completely out of balance, Brian, who lowered his head, suddenly laughed.

It was a loud laugh that grew from small to large, from small to loud, resounding bit by bit.

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha……!"

Brian laughed like crazy, very happy, very happy.

"So it was you, so one of the monsters at that time was you...!"

Brian was happy about it, and laughed about it.

"An, Mrs. Angles? What's wrong with you?"

Climb uttered tremblingly, seemingly frightened by Brian's appearance.

Only Gazef and the others vaguely understood why Bryan suddenly laughed so happily.

The reason is actually very simple.

"A monster of that level is not a different race, but a human!"

"Human beings can become so strong!"

"Is this the possibility of humanity, the end of humanity?"

"I'm really watching the sky from a well!"

Bryan smiled and laughed, and actually started dancing.

"That's right, only a strong man like him is qualified to evaluate all human beings. My level is not far behind!"

"It's not that humans can't become that strong, it's just that I haven't become that strong myself!"

"My efforts are not enough!"

Obviously he was talking about denying himself, but Brian didn't feel depressed at all. On the contrary, the more he said, the happier he was, the happier he was.

"My efforts are definitely not in vain, right? As long as I continue to work hard, I will definitely become stronger and stronger, and even become as strong as him!"

The eyes of Brian who said such words were particularly fiery, and the ashes and despair before had completely disappeared.

Seeing Bryan like this, whether it's Gazef or Gagran, they are finally relieved.

"Glad you figured it out, Anglaus."

Gazef was the first to offer his blessings to Brian, and smiled sincerely.

"That's right, I've finally become a bit like the Brian Anglos I remembered."

Gagaran also showed a satisfied expression.

"Stronov."

Brian was awakened from his excitement, and when he saw Gazef who was sincerely happy for him, he immediately calmed down.

After calming down, Brian showed Gazef a grateful expression.

"You invited that one just for me, right?" Bryan thanked Gazef, and said, "I really trouble you to worry about me."

"It's just a matter of little effort." Gazef shook his head, and said, "It would be a pity if a man like you was defeated. I just had this thought and gave it a try."

"But you saved me, saved my life, saved my life." Brian stared at the formidable enemy he had dreamed of defeating before him, and said solemnly: "Thanks to you, I can regain my strength again." The idea of ​​holding a knife, this kindness, I, Brian Anglos, will remember."

Seeing the never-before-seen solemn look on Bryan's face, Gazef suddenly smiled.

"In this case, let me see your knife again." Gazef said to Brian with the expression of a soldier: "I have always regarded you as a competitor, and I saw your knife just now. , I can’t wait to experience it.”

"Did you mean [Tiger's Flute]?" Brian smiled wryly at Gazef's words, and said without any pride, "If it were the same as before, I would definitely be so happy because of your words, right?"

"That knife was created by me just to defeat you."

"But now, I already know that there is a sky beyond the sky, and there are people beyond people. Compared with that knife, my [Tiger's Flute] is just a child's trick."

Such self-deprecating words made everyone present unable to utter a single rebuttal.

Recalling the lightning bolt and the stunning slash just now, everyone subconsciously agreed with Brian's words.

Admittedly, Bryan's knife is already strong and fast, but compared to that knife, it is really not 01:30 points worse.

"...I can understand how you feel."

Gazef immediately laughed bitterly along with him.

no way.

"My [Six Lights Slash] was also easily dispelled by Your Excellency Brihot. At that time, I couldn't even make him use the knife just now." Gazef sighed: "If it weren't for you , I didn't even know that that person was so accomplished in swordsmanship."

Everyone was stunned.

"You don't know?" Ge Gelan was very surprised: "Didn't you know that person is very strong?"

"I didn't deny this." Gazef hesitated to speak, and finally said something like this: "It's just that I always thought that his real ability was in magic, and he was only slightly involved in swords. "

"It wasn't until today that I realized that I was completely wrong."

Everyone could hear the deep meaning in these words.

Evileye, who had been silent all this time, spoke out in an inconceivable tone.

"You mean, he is actually a magic caster who is proficient in magic?"

These words, in exchange for the answer is extremely affirmative.

"Although I don't know how high the specific attainment is, I can be sure that Your Excellency Brihote can use fifth-level magic."

"So, he is indeed a magic caster who is proficient in magic."

"And, he has already stepped into the hero realm."

Gazef's words clearly echoed in the courtyard.

Everyone was silent for a moment.

"What a powerful person..."

Climb's whisper had already begun to carry admiration that could not be ignored.

The same is true for Brian, his eyes are full of longing.

Gagaran and Evileye looked at each other, as if they had a thousand words to say.

Li Ge Brihot, the name was deeply engraved in the hearts of everyone present, making it unforgettable.

Happy New Year to everyone~~~(*^▽^*)
