Ambush? / People Die When They Are Killed

As for changing my mind, I won't sell.

He dared not.

After all, someone who can use Originium Arts is someone an ordinary person like him can't afford to mess with.

Under the other person's trembling gaze, Suika packed up her musical instruments and then casually bought a small portable speaker.

I bought this purely for fun.

Seeing these musical instruments reminded her of a certain Gang Leader Qiao carried a stereo system into the room.

How cool would it be to have a awesome background music during battle?

Thinking about this, she became quite impatient.

Chapter 522 Ambush?

After a wave of retaliatory spending, Suika walked contentedly out of the city.

Upon discovering that Suika was about to leave, the person monitoring her immediately reported it to the local judge.

After hearing this, the judge told them not to act rashly.

As long as we confirm that the other party has left the city, it's fine.

The trainee judges under his command thought their superior was being too timid.

When faced with an unknown individual, just grab them; there's no need for all this trouble.

In response, he said

"About ten days ago, people in the previous city had the same idea as you, and then everyone in that city was unconscious for half an hour. The person in charge of the arrest also fell into a coma and was said to have suffered very serious injuries."

Admittedly, the Inquisition needs to use combat to wash away previous losses when facing the enemy.

But if she could do that in the previous city, she can do it here too.

We are willing to do anything for our ideals and justice, but all of this is on the premise of protecting the residents here.

Don't forget, this is precisely why our Inquisition has assigned us to be stationed here.

Since that person doesn't want to take action, all we need to do is monitor them and report their actions. If the Inquisition determines that she is an enemy, it will naturally arrange for experts to hunt her down.

Instead of us and the entire town making a pointless sacrifice."

After hearing his words, the trainee judges below looked ashamed.

Indeed, they were blinded by honor and forgot their responsibilities.

The Inquisition placed them here to monitor the Church of the Deep and maintain social stability.

Facing a master like Suika who can influence an entire city, it is absolutely unacceptable to engage in combat within the city.

After all, as seen in the previous city, she has made it clear that even if there are many innocent civilians in the city, she will not hold back in a fight.

Therefore, the idea of fighting Suika in the city was never part of the judge's plan from the beginning.

Even if the Inquisition officials arrived, he would demand that the battle take place outside the city.

After leaving the city for a while, Suika looked back at the city with some surprise.

The fact that the city was monitoring him showed that the judge certainly knew his identity.

But strangely, they did not choose to go to war.

After he left, he did not send anyone to follow him.

"Looks like there are still some normal people in the Iberian Inquisition!"

Suika shook her head and sighed.

That evening, she sat on a rock, with various musical instruments floating in the air in front of her, accompanying her conducting, sometimes playing "Two Tigers" and sometimes "Cloud Palace Divine Music".

She also gained new insights into this ability while playing.

The biggest difference between ability and skill is that skill requires practice. Even if the original author uses those moves very skillfully, they still need to be localized for her.

To adapt to her fighting style.

Ability, on the other hand, is instinct added out of thin air.

For example, when it comes to music, I'm at most a listener; I can tell which songs are good and which aren't.

But after gaining this ability, he learned about all sorts of music-related things and was able to use every instrument with ease.

It's as if I've used these instruments thousands of times, and they've become second nature to me.

Before gaining this ability, I had no idea what sheet music was and couldn't understand it at all.

Now she can not only read sheet music easily, but also play various musical instruments without making any mistakes.

Most importantly, because she controls all the instruments herself, this half-orchestra is a true whole, capable of instantly playing any music she wants to hear based on her ideas.

After playing for a while, she put the instrument away.

As for those three special types of music, they require an audience, and she's not in a hurry at all.

At worst, when I get to Leithanien, I can have a good chat with the musicians there.

The next few days were very peaceful. Just when Suika thought the Inquisition had given up on capturing the child, the pursuers finally arrived.

As usual, Suika walked west along the main road and came to the edge of a dry riverbed.

There are many such riverbeds in Iberia.

Most of them were taken during periods of Great Silence.

Huge skeletons can still be seen in the riverbed. These skeletons belong to giant sea monsters. The Great Silence brought the sea into Iberia, and after the sea receded, these giants, deprived of the sea's protection, were stranded on the land and died of drought.

Their remains were left in these waterways. The Iberia initially had no time to clean them up, and later they became too lazy to deal with them. Over time, this created a scene rarely seen elsewhere.

Just as Suika was marveling at the vast difference between the scenery of Iberia and other countries, Shanghai suddenly warned her from above.

"Hmm, is there an ambush ahead?"

Suika was taken aback at first, then a glint of shrewdness flashed across her face.

After so many days, she was no longer angry.

She also realized that the blood debt she incurred by killing the Seaborn and villagers was for people like Gerald who wanted to live a good life.

Not those organizations or groups.

However, just like she said before in Gensokyo, although she won't go looking for trouble, she won't be polite if someone makes her uncomfortable and insists on causing her trouble.

After all, a person dies when they are killed.

Therefore, if you want to kill yourself, you must be prepared to be killed.

With a flick of her head, two iron chains slid off the corner. She grabbed one in each hand and fastened them to her wrists, then dragged the chains toward the ambush zone.

The sound of chains dragging on the ground echoed, sending chills down one's spine even in broad daylight.

After entering the encirclement, Suika stopped directly in the middle.

"I've already delivered myself to your doorstep, isn't it a bit impolite of you to be hiding in the corner?"

Suika scoffed.

Upon hearing Suika's words, the people lying in ambush knew they had been discovered.

"How dare they! They injured our men and, knowing we were lying in ambush here, still dared to come in on their own."

"So you probably already know what I mean by having him bring it!"

"I'm giving you a chance: leave... or die!"

Suika glanced around; the newcomers were about as strong as the guy from before.

Including his subordinates, there were about a hundred people scattered around.

With this level of fighting strength, Suika wasn't afraid when she first came out of Lungmen, let alone now.

She exuded an imposing aura as she spoke.

Under the terrifying aura emanating from the Ghost King, even the weakest ordinary soldiers fainted instantly.

The two judges who were still awake, along with the Inquisitorial Tribunal beside them, looked at Suika with fear in their eyes.

They never expected that their opponent, without even making a move, would almost wipe out their entire group simply by relying on their imposing aura.

Chapter 523 When a person is killed, they will die.

As soon as Suika's gaze swept over them, most people felt a chill run down their spines.

Some people who were not firm enough took a few steps back.

"Leave now, and no one will get hurt!"

Considering that Iberia did indeed need the Inquisitors to catch the Church of the Deep's traitors, Suika didn't want to push things too far.

However, her good intentions did not lead to things going in the direction she hoped for.

A few seconds later, the judge standing at the front raised his gun at Suika.

"I don't know what happened before, and I don't care."

All I know is that you have offended a judge and desecrated the dignity of the Church.

You must receive the punishment you deserve!

"Let's do it!"

As he finished speaking, the gun in his hand fired, and then Suika's forehead made a "ding" sound.

The bullet slid off his forehead without causing any injury.

She could have dodged, but she didn't, because there was no need.

The moment they made their move, she had no intention of letting these people live.

The scorching heat rose around us, and even though it wasn't yet April, everyone felt as if they were facing the sun directly.

A crisp sound came from the sand and gravel underfoot; it was the sound of the sand and gravel being broken down by molecules under high temperature.

Just moments before, at the instant the gunshot rang out, Shanghai, carrying her handbag, flew into the air with lightning speed.

After all, she could feel Suika's anger, and she didn't even dare to imagine how explosive the damage Suika could cause in her rage would be.

It's best to stay away anyway.

Shanghai's assessment was correct.

When she turned around, the dried-up riverbed had become a living hell.

This purgatory is not an adjective, but a noun.

Ghost Fire [Ultra-High-Density Phosphorus Calamity Art]

At this moment, it unleashed its destructive power to the fullest extent.

The description of this move is. "Shaking the earth, lava projectiles erupt from the ground. The lava projectiles will split and scatter several times, burning everything within a wide area to ashes."

However, the Suika usually only uses the most basic fraction, which is to increase the temperature in conjunction with increasing the density.

It has never been fully released.

This time she didn't hold back. After realizing that the conflict between the two sides could not be resolved, she slammed the iron chains on her hands onto the ground.

After the terrifying tremors, the riverbed was torn into countless fragments, with lava flowing among them. Every now and then, the lava would suddenly erupt and burst open, splashing scalding hot lava in all directions.

In a mere instant, nearly a hundred people behind him, including the judge, were killed or wounded in less than five seconds.

They didn't even let Suika make a second move.

The man who shot Suika had half his body torn apart by the chains; he was arguably the only one who "died" at Suika's hands. The rest of the followers and guards all perished in the lava.

Exhaling a breath of scalding hot air, Suika's inner rage dissipated with the deaths of these people.

She waved to the Shanghai skyline, then ignored the dropping temperature around her and continued walking westward.

A day later, Carmen arrived with another judge.

Looking at the mess on the ground and the barely recognizable corpse, the two fell silent.

The judge felt a sense of relief at that moment.

When he and the deceased came to pursue them together, in the town where Suika had stayed, the other party chose to come first, while he stayed behind to wait for Carmen's arrival.
