Yuan Shirui Arrives

Trapped within the magic formation, Su Ran looked at the vampire before her with neither joy nor sorrow.

Even though she appeared to have accepted reality, her expression showed no fear of the vampire.

“How did you manage to set up a double magic formation here?”

“Using magic essence within Jiangbei City should not have been able to escape the police department’s detection, especially since my location is not far from the station.”

“If that is your question, then I can only tell you that it is a gift from a god.”

As magic essence gathered at the vampire’s side, the light in his hand grew brighter and brighter, even overpowering the red light of the magic formation.

“Alright, I have answered your question. Now, go and die!”

In the next moment, the magic essence in the vampire’s hand shot towards Su Ran’s position.

The extreme magic essence was compressed by the vampire into a beam of light.

Just standing to the side, one could feel the terrifying energy it contained, let alone Su Ran, who was facing the blow directly.

Seeing that her attempt to get information had failed, Su Ran’s heart sank.

Faced with the vampire’s attack, she was not one to sit and wait for death.

Her clothes materialized like points of light, and the witch set was once again upon her.

Compared to ordinary clothes, at critical moments, it was the magic items produced by the system that could give Su Ran a sense of security.

Several ice walls rose crazily in front of Su Ran, as if they required no magic essence, buying her a little buffer time.

Su Ran stretched out her hand, and an ice crystal long rifle was constructed.

The special icicle bullets were already loaded, their target being the light beam attack that was about to break through the last wall.

With a crack, the ice wall was instantly covered in spiderweb-like fractures.

The attack that broke through the final ice wall appeared right before Su Ran’s eyes.

Bang, bang, bang.

Su Ran fired several shots in succession.

Even though the ice crystal long rifle and bullets were driven by magic essence, once activated, the cold air burst forth as if it were free.

With the Ring of Pride, Su Ran was not a normal Sequence Two who needed to be measured.

She didn’t need to consider the consumption of magic essence at all.

If the vampire had used a powerful blood magic, it might have left Su Ran with no way to resist.

But if he simply wanted to use crude magic essence as an attack, then he had miscalculated.

Five icicles collided with the light beam in succession.

In the blink of an eye, the entire space was filled with the sound of explosions.

Influenced by the two different magic essence energies, the magic essence in the air also became agitated.

Under the massive impact, the vampire’s expression changed, and he took several steps back, staring intently at Su Ran’s position.

Su Ran’s state at this moment was much worse than that of the Sequence Four vampire.

Affected by the explosion of the two energies, Su Ran could only lie prone on the ground to reduce the pressure from the blast.

Fortunately, the little dress on her body had blocked part of the explosive energy, preventing her from being blown away.

“It seems that a Sequence Four isn’t all that great.”

Staggering to her feet, Su Ran wiped the dust from her pretty face, a hint of mockery flashing in her beautiful eyes.

The vampire before her didn’t speak, but Su Ran could see a bit of anger in his eyes, as if he had been provoked by her.

The vampire turned into a red light and disappeared from Su Ran’s sight.

When he reappeared, Su Ran was met with only an afterimage.

“Pfft.”

Even with the witch set as a buffer, Su Ran still took a considerable impact.

The immense force from her chest made her blood surge, and she spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.

Compared to humans, a vampire’s physical constitution was much stronger.

Taking that kick head-on, several of Su Ran’s bones were on the verge of cracking.

Seeing that the other party had no intention of pursuing, Su Ran quickly cast a Gale spell on herself.

‘Wow, his speed just now didn’t even give me time to react and cast a spell.’

‘If I took a few more hits, I might really have to check out here.’

Su Ran wasn’t sure if the speed of Gale could outrun the other party.

This vampire was a bit strange.

Compared to a vampire, he was more like a martial artist who used magic essence to strengthen his body.

According to the nature of vampires, they shouldn’t be good at this kind of bare-handed combat.

But the other party’s attacks gave Su Ran a feeling of proficiency, at least much more proficient than his use of magic essence attacks.

Su Ran glanced at the sky above the magic formation, then continued to watch the enemy before her, worried he would launch a surprise attack from a position she hadn’t noticed.

However, Su Ran’s worry was unnecessary.

The vampire before her showed her that even when she was staring intently, his speed was still beyond her reaction time.

By the time Su Ran drove the Gale spell to try and dodge, the other party’s attack had already landed.

Su Ran, who had just left her original spot, turned pale.

While dodging the attack, her leg had been grazed by the strong wind, causing a bone fracture.

Pain instantly flooded her mind.

“Hehe, next time, I won’t give you a chance to escape.”

The vampire looked at Su Ran as if staring at a lamb to be slaughtered.

Fine beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.

Su Ran stared at the other party without saying a word.

“Become a sacrifice for the god!”

The vampire charged towards Su Ran.

However, this time, the pain did not appear on Su Ran’s body.

“That was close. I was about to go get some coffee when I felt the fluctuation of your magic essence nearby, so I came over to see.”

Yuan Shirui’s familiar figure stood in front of Su Ran.

The attack aimed at Su Ran had been blocked by her.

Magic essence fluctuations unique to vampires emanated from her body.

The magic essence fluctuations emanating from her entire body were of the same rank as the vampire’s, indicating that Yuan Shirui had also successfully advanced to Sequence Four.

Su Ran’s body relaxed.

Seeing that it was Yuan Shirui who had come, she felt exceptionally at ease.

The icicle bullets she had shot were not just five.

There were a few more that had been shot according to the flow of magic essence within the magic formation.

The purpose was to allow Jiangbei City, outside the magic formation, to detect the appearance of magic essence fluctuations.

Setting up a double formation was already the limit for anyone below Sequence Six.

To add more magic formations on top, one would have to use the time-consuming nested formation principle.

Since the other party’s answer was a “gift from a god,” Su Ran was ninety percent sure that she was only in a double formation.

“You’ve only just advanced to Sequence Four. Can you stop me?”

Hearing this, Yuan Shirui wasn’t angry.

She said leisurely, “A newly advanced Sequence Four might not be able to stop you, but dragging it out for a little longer is definitely not a problem. Do you think the security in Jiangbei City is for show?”

“Consider yourself lucky.”

After weighing the pros and cons, the vampire gave Su Ran a deep look, then turned and left.

The surrounding scenery was like a bubble, instantly disappearing into the air.

Su Ran was still near the original path.

“Xiao Ran, are you okay?”

Seeing that the other party had left, Yuan Shirui ran over to help up Su Ran, who was sitting on the ground.

“Hiss.”

As she stood up with Yuan Shirui’s help, Su Ran suddenly sucked in a cold breath.

Her leg bone had fractured.

She would probably need some time to rest and couldn’t move around carelessly.
