Dire Ghost Mask?
Wutuo narrowed his eyes and carefully examined the figure below the mountain.
For some reason, the figure felt both familiar and unfamiliar to him...
Wutuo said expressionlessly, "Betrayal is something that only exists after one has pledged allegiance. I have never belonged to Eastern Continent, so how could I be accused of betrayal?"
"The Adjudication Court treated you well."
The Dire Ghost said quietly, "Even if you wanted to leave Nagano, all you had to do was say so. Why fabricate excuses and cruelly kill the last innocent teammates who traveled with you?"
"...Sorry, but you seem to care a lot about these ants?"
Wutuo smiled. "Actually, I never wanted to do this. They insisted on seeing me off, so in the end, I had no choice but to kill them."
Wutuo's original plan had been to apply for a solo assignment outside the city and use the opportunity to leave Nagano.
But some teammates had insisted on following him, and he could not shake them off.
In the end, time was tight. He had no other choice but to kill all those teammates... Only then could he successfully board the giant ship bound for Southampton City.
The moment those words were spoken.
Both atop and below the mountain, silence fell.
A fierce wind swept through the night as the Dire Ghost suddenly charged up the mountain at astonishing speed.
The next moment.
The black night over the barren mountain was lit up. The Holy Sun Barrier Wutuo had set up in advance was triggered, and countless scorching rays enveloped an area of a hundred meters.
The Dire Ghost, who was rapidly ascending the mountain, began to burn all over...
Yet he showed no intention of stopping. He crashed into the Holy Sun Barrier with ferocious momentum
