For a full ten minutes, it continued uninterrupted.

Every last gargoyle outside the windows and the swarming monsters were completely incinerated into ashes.

Lynn panted heavily, pulling a blue potion from his medical kit and gulping it down in large swallows.

The mental energy he had just expended and the physical exhaustion were instantly and effectively relieved.

[Ding! You consumed a mental energy potion, and your mental energy has been significantly replenished!]

Since this was his first house call.

Lynn had practically brought every type of potion available in the shop.

After all.

To leave a professional and favorable impression on the client, thorough preparation was naturally essential.

Lynn smiled slightly, removed the Arm of Dragon Breath, and said, "Let's go! They've been reduced to ashes!"

Just as Lynn was about to step forward.

He immediately spotted Bai Yi approaching with a face full of (✪‸✪) expression.

Lynn instantly broke out in goosebumps all over.

"What's wrong? In heat or something?"

Bai Yi (✪‸✪) said: "Brother Lynn, can I touch that weapon of yours? It's so cool! Really, really cool!"

Lynn glanced at him, taking in his desperately eager expression.

He could probably guess some of the reasons.

Perhaps because he had lost his own, he had developed a rather fanatical admiration and pursuit for certain thick, sturdy, and rigid objects.

"Here."

Lynn was very generous.

"Thanks, Big Bro!"

Bai Yi reached out joyfully to take the Arm of Dragon Breath, but the moment it touched his hands, its weight immediately crushed him to the ground.

He was utterly astonished.

So heavy! So robust! So massive!

And judging by its weight, it must be at least several hundred pounds!

As expected of Big Bro, truly amazing, to be able to wield such a thing so effortlessly and with such ease, so strong!

Bai Yi (❁´◡`❁)* stroked the fierce exterior skin and blood vessels of the Arm of Dragon Breath, as if it wasn't Big Bro who had just displayed such divine power here, but himself!

"So cool!"

...

A few minutes later.

The two passed through the corridor, and the moment they turned the corner, Lynn instantly reached out an arm to stop Bai Yi, who was struggling to drag the Arm of Dragon Breath along.

Lynn narrowed his eyes instantly and said, "Trouble ahead!"

Bai Yi trembled all over and quickly looked toward the passageway leading deeper into the Ancient Castle.

The light was dim, with only faint candlelight flickering within.

And right there in the shimmering, uncertain glimmer, at the end of the passage, he saw a long shadow.

A chilling wind whistled past the hem of that shadow's garments.

And at that very moment.

The shadow swiftly shua shua shua darted through the passage, then abruptly stopped dozens of meters ahead of them.

Clang—

A great sword was suddenly brandished.

And Bai Yi immediately got a clear look at the shadow's appearance, his face instantly turning pale.

Because it was a tall knight.

[Knight Commander's Body]

[Race]: Evil Spirit Puppet

[Attributes]: None

[Introduction]: In life, he served as the Knight Commander under Count Camell, a powerful knight skilled in swordsmanship. During his lifetime, he won first place in multiple knight tournaments. His swift and fierce sword techniques instilled fear in all enemies who dared face him.

He wore a suit of decaying armor, had a head full of pale white hair, gaunt and sunken eye sockets, and rotting arms oozing with pus and blood.

Clearly.

After falling into this world, this powerful knight had also become an undead entity.

Shua—shua—shua—

The massive blade danced, stirring up gusts of wind around them.

Those sharp sword techniques and dashing posture all indicated that he had been a noble and powerful knight in life.

Bai Yi watched the knight with a grave expression, his lips trembling slightly.

The dazzling techniques filled him with fear.

Clearly.

This knight was on a completely different level compared to the previous monsters.

Just the imposing aura emanating from the blade slicing through the air made one feel chilled to the bone. This person must have been an incredibly powerful warrior in life.

Clang—

The blade was thrust fiercely into the ground, then he hoisted it onto his shoulder. The knight looked down dismissively at Lynn, crooking a finger at him, and said coldly:

"If you wish to harm Lord Camell, then... you'll have to step over my corpse... first!"

His voice was extremely penetrating, commanding authority without anger, evoking an indescribable sense of dread.

Bai Yi trembled even more, sweating profusely.

This was clearly!

A puppet with extremely formidable strength!

If this were a dungeon-crawling game, he'd at least be a minor boss guarding an area!

He swallowed hard, fearfully sneaking a glance at Lynn, who had his dead-fish eyes wide open, his heart quivering uncontrollably.

Big Bro... how is Big Bro going to deal with this knight?

Using this dragon arm?

It feels too cumbersome, and the wind-up time is too long;

probably not suitable for this kind of sudden encounter.

Does Big Bro have any other powerful magical artifacts?

This knight.

Just one look tells you he's the really strong type, not easy to handle!

And just as he was burning with anxiety.

Lynn, with his dead-fish eyes wide open, said, "You want to duel with me?"

The knight pointed his sword at him dismissively and sneered, "Those who trespass on the Earl's domain shall be slain without mercy! However, I am willing to grant you—a chance to challenge me!"

He flourished his blade.

Lynn, with dead-fish eyes wide open, said calmly, "So, can we start now?"

The knight moved his head nonchalantly, shua shua shua flourishing his sword, and sneered:

"Fine! Since you're in such a hurry to die, I'll oblige you. But you'd better understand, in life I was known as the Hundred-Man Slayer, having killed countless, won five knight tournament championships, my swordsmanship and spear techniques were the best in the kingdom. Ignorant youngsters like you, I could crush a dozen with one hand!"

Bang—

A gunshot rang out.

[Ding! You have slain the Knight Commander's Body. You have gained 50 experience points.]

A bullet hole the size of a pinky finger appeared on the knight's forehead, dark blood gushing out. His gaze went vacant, his voice cutting off abruptly.

Thud—

Right before Bai Yi's shocked eyes, his body fell heavily backward.

Bai Yi (꒪Д꒪)ノ said: "Th-this... this..."

"..."

Silence fell all around.

Lynn calmly blew the smoke from the gun barrel and shook his head, saying, "What era is this still, waving swords and spears around? Ridiculous."

Saying so.

Lynn hoisted the chainsaw onto his shoulder and strode forward.

"Let's go!"

Bai Yi stood there dumbfounded, looking at the knight's corpse on the ground, then at Brother Lynn calmly walking ahead with the chainsaw on his shoulder.

This... this...

This isn't the kind of duel I imagined!

0ДQ!

Is this a joke?!

One shot and it's over?!
