Division of Labor

The main target was lost.

Abel immediately abandoned his attack and used his calves to propel himself back to his squad.

At the same time, after drinking a bottle of holy water, the dark lines around his eyes faded slightly.

Rumble! The floor of the barbershop trembled slightly.

Something is coming... probably in the middle.

It was located where the Barber Charlie's seat had sunk.

The stone slabs that make up the ground shifted, and an opening about three meters in diameter slowly opened.

Rumble~~

A circular elevator underground is slowly carrying a giant entity upwards.

"Black Hair Creation"

Charlie, the Grand Lord's personal Barber Charlie, was an extreme individual in his lifetime. He enjoyed sewing hair into other people's bodies and conducting hair-related research in various horrific ways.

In his view, hair is alive and can be cultivated like a plant.

With the arrival of the Dark Age, he finally achieved the 'black hair cultivation', thus rising to become one of the family's important cadres.

A "Black Hair Creation" with a body reaching a height of four meters was presented to everyone through the stitching of black hair.

This monster has four heads taken from different people.

There are obvious traces of black hair stitching on the neck.

Each head had a thick, black hair about half a meter long hanging from its mouth.

Four specially modified arms

All Joints are connected with black hair. For example, the elbow between the forearm and the upper arm is completely removed and connected with black hair to increase the length, flexibility and versatility of the arm.

Each strand of black hair seemed to possess a subtle vitality, swaying gently in the air.

To kill the "Black Hair Creation," one must locate and destroy its Evil Spirit Heart.

The Lesser Demon Eye can see this directly.

Through the skin and the flowing black hair, it was discovered that there were four hearts in different locations in the body, all tightly wrapped by thick black hair.

"Four hearts, one two meters below the left chest, one three meters above the right chest, one six centimeters below the abdomen, and one heart attached to the back through mucous membrane and black hair... Be careful."

The target's black hair density is frighteningly high; proceed with caution.

"Good!"

Han Dong seemed to have no intention of participating in the battle, and continued, "You guys deal with this thing. I will find the way to the lower level, which is the barber's lair, in a short time."

To end the mission and leave this place, we must eliminate the barber.

"OK..."

After communicating with Abel.

Han Dong glanced at Mia, who was standing at the back of the group and seemed reluctant to participate in the battle.

"We'll provide 'Sedative Potions' for everyone at any time. No slacking off!"

"Okay."

Mia, who was called out by name, stuck out her tongue.

It seems she doesn't really want to fight and has a tendency to deliberately conserve her energy.

Careful!!

This isn't some anime or TV series; the enemy won't wait for you to slowly discuss tactics.

The Black Hair Creation locked onto the entire team the moment it appeared.

Because the Joints area is connected with black hair.

This Black Hair Creation's arms can extend to any length.

He swung one of his arms with all his might and slapped the person closest to him... who was none other than Captain Abel had just returned to the group.

During the swing, multiple layers of black hair wrapped around the palm, making the hand harder than steel, and powerful enough to punch a huge hole in a wall.

Smack!

The loud sound of a slap echoed throughout the barbershop.

It was as if Abel had been hit head-on.

However, the situation was different from what I had imagined.

Abel's aura changed instantly, and he retaliated by giving the black-haired arm that was slapping him a high-five.

The black-haired man's arm was struck with tremendous force and spun more than ten times around his shoulder, causing his hair to become completely tangled and his arm to become unable to move normally.

The atmosphere has changed!

Han Dong glanced at Abel Raine in the present moment.

Spiky white hair that hangs back to ear level.

His physique had become about 20% stronger, and the white aura attached to his body formed a huge bear image behind him.

"Abel... is that strong!?"

This has exceeded Han Dong's expectations.

Abel, Giant Bear Guardian, experienced a surge in power.

Undeterred by this terrifying Black Hair Creation... and continued to charge head-on at its target with heavy steps, like a giant bear.

period.

The Black Hair Creation stared at Abel, who was charging towards it, and continuously shot out large amounts of sharp black hair from its mouth and between its fingers.

However, Abel did not stop or make any defensive move, completely ignoring the black hairs that were piercing towards him.

Ding~ Ding~ Ding!

Just as the black hair was about to pierce Abel's flesh... sharp impact sounds continued to come.

All of her black hair was blocked by a transparent air barrier.

"God's Law: Void Barrier"

The spellcaster was none other than the little magician, Demps.

The two geniuses have reached a level of understanding of over 80% and can completely trust each other.

Allow Abel to advance smoothly to the target and confront the Black Hair Creation head-on with the power of the giant bear.

As for Demps, he turned to a page in the grimoire and used the book as a medium to cast spells... directly condensing "Fire Spear" in the air to launch a ranged attack.

As mentioned before, Mia's witchcraft requires a vessel.

Magic, when not confined to a 'carrier', is usually spherical, such as a fireball. (Just as pure water forms a perfect sphere in zero gravity.)

As for the Fire Spear that Demps cast, it was based on ordinary magic but with the addition of a "shaping" process, making the magic more penetrating.

Seeing this scene, Han Dong was no longer worried.

Shielding themselves from the distractions of battle, they focused entirely on searching the barbershop.

The "Lesser Demon Eye" is so useful.

With his unique perspective, Han Dong quickly identified the differences.

Hidden in a display case of human heads on the upper level of the barbershop is a secret compartment with a movable stone block.

"Mia!"

"Ah... what's wrong?"

Mia, who was about to step forward to assist in the battle, was stopped by Han Dong again.

"The stone behind this display case should be movable... I can't climb walls, so I'll leave it to you."

"Good."

Mia didn't change her form at all; she could easily climb the wall by simply placing her palms on it.

really.

The stone was easily pushed, triggering some kind of mechanism.

At the bottom of the wall directly opposite, a backup elevator automatically opens, leading directly to the Barber Charlie's private room.

"Mia, come with me!"

However, Mia, who was clinging to the wall, kept shaking her head, as if she foresaw the danger below and was unwilling to go.

"If you don't come with me... then don't ever follow me again."

"You... you're threatening them again!"

A dark figure scrambled down, and just as the elevator doors were closing, Mia climbed in.

Abel hadn't yet used his full strength, and with the help of the Calming Pendant and herbs to resist the pollution, Han Dong completely handed over the battle above to him and Demps.

He himself planned to meet with this Stuart Family executive.

After all, some of Han Dong's abilities are not suitable for use against the team unless it is absolutely necessary.

The elevator descends, and the hidden compartment closes automatically.
