As Dikor's rapier blocked Moli's double axes, Kang'en and the others swarmed in, attacking from all four directions. In terms of strength, Kang'en and the other three were all Seven-Star Fiend, possessing four different Edicts of Destruction. The attack power of the Edicts of Destruction was immense, and the combined force of the four overwhelmed Moli's attack.
Dikor smiled contemptuously, turned his body, and like a gust of wind, he passed through the gap in the attack and in the blink of an eye, he had already run more than ten feet.
"You guys play, I'm not playing along!" Dikor laughed triumphantly, not even glancing at the guards opposite him, and was about to flee.
Moli's face flushed red with embarrassment and anger surged; he felt like he was about to vomit blood. Last time, he chased after him alone without success, and this time, he and five others surrounded him, yet Morrie still managed to escape easily. If word got out, his reputation would be ruined!
" Dikor, stay here!"
Enraged, Moli swung his right arm, sending the axe slicing through the air like a bolt of lightning. The axe was heavy, and Moli was strong; at full power, the axe moved faster than Dikor could dodge.
"Bang!"
Caught off guard, Dikor finally noticed the axe's attack, but he couldn't dodge it and could only barely avoid a fatal blow. His left shoulder was ripped open by the bronze-looking axe, leaving it a bloody mess.
"Great!" All the soldiers of the Prefecture Army were overjoyed at the sight, and even those who were watching the battle and the excitement looked at Moli with new respect.
The injured Dikor's pace slowed, and he stopped abruptly. He slowly turned around, holding Moli's axe in his left hand.
Dikor smiled, lightly tossing the axe in his left hand, and said casually, "Everyone says the Bloodflame Prefecture Army's Grand Commander has the strength to challenge Asura. I didn't believe it before, but now I do. However, even so, you can't capture me. Here, take your axe back!"
A flash of azure Divine Power sent the axe flying from Dikor's hand toward Moli, its speed no slower than when Moli had thrown it. Moli's expression remained unchanged; with a wave of his hand, the axe seemed to fly into his grasp effortlessly.
This axe was, after all, his divine weapon.
" Dikor, I admit, you're very strong. In a one-on-one fight, even if I could beat you, I couldn't defeat you." Moli's dark face was tense. "But this time, you absolutely can't escape! Also, let me tell you something: I'm no longer the Commander of the Prefecture Army Guard!"
As the two were talking, Kang'en and the other three surrounded Dikor again, but Dikor seemed not to notice. The wound on his left shoulder had already healed under the power of the Divine Power force. It seemed that his aura had also returned to its peak. Surrounded again, Dikor remained as arrogant as ever.
"You're not capable enough to capture me!"
Upon seeing Moli approach, Dikor's expression turned slightly serious. However, his speed suddenly increased, and his figure became blurry, making him difficult to track. Moli and the other four were all experienced in combat. They positioned themselves in five different directions, proceeding cautiously and using stillness to control movement, managing to hold Dikor back.
Dikor's rapier was like a venomous snake, striking unexpectedly from time to time. Moli, Kang'en, and the others were on high alert, carefully defending themselves, and managed to protect themselves.
The battle between the six Seven-Star Fiend was naturally quite powerful, and the small courtyard below had long since become a large crater. If it weren't for the 20,000 soldiers forming an array to block the scattered power of the six, half of the city would probably have been destroyed.
The battle intensified. On the field, Dikor's speed increased rapidly, and what was most disheartening was that his speed seemed to have no limit. At a glance, only a streak of sword light remained in flight. Moli and the others also launched powerful attacks, but they could never catch their opponent, their attacks landing in empty air, leaving everyone speechless.
More and more people gathered in the city to watch. The exciting battle was a real treat for everyone, and many even seemed eager to try it themselves.
"Forget it, I have to take action again. If this continues, establishing authority will turn into making a fool of myself!" Andrew couldn't help but shake his head, sighed softly, and appeared above the battlefield.
Having single-handedly confronted and even toyed with five Seven-Star Fiend, Dikor was in high spirits, shouting, " Moli, you might as well give up. I, Dikor, have roamed Infernal Realm for countless years. So what if countless lords and city chiefs have issued warrants for my arrest? Hahaha, Bloodflame City or not, even in Indigo City, I can come and go as I please!"
Indigo City is the capital of Indigo Prefecture and the residence of Beirut. Ever since Beirut won the title of the number one person below the Sovereign of the Blood Peak Continent, Indigo City has become the most powerful city on the Blood Peak Continent.
Moli was furious. " Dikor, I don't care what you were like before. Today, you're not leaving Bloodflame City!"
"I told you, you can't keep me here with your abilities. If you want me to stay, your lord will have to step in!" Dikor replied with a smile.
"Since you insist, I'll grant your request. Moli, you all step aside." Dikor's smugness didn't last long before a voice chilled him to the bone. Everyone looked up and saw a figure in a black robe appear above the battlefield.
"Lord of the Bloodflame Prefecture!" Everyone recognized Andrew's identity; almost everyone present knew about his battle with Digelunsi.
"Haha, that guy Dikor is finished!" Among the audience, some who had a grudge against Dikor gloated. Moli and the others quickly retreated to the side after hearing Andrew's words. However, none of the five were very happy. After all, failing to defeat their opponent in front of their leader despite being outnumbered was too embarrassing.
The moment Andrew appeared, the bustling battlefield fell silent. Everyone stared at this not-so-tall figure, their gazes filled with a mixture of awe, fear, envy, and disdain.
Dikor's body stiffened for a moment. He hadn't expected the lord of the manor to actually make a move. However, he was a lone bandit and didn't feel much fear.
A person like him wouldn't even flinch in the face of death.
"Greetings, Lord Lord!" The 20,000 guards around him all bowed their heads and knelt on one knee. Moli five companions also bowed and paid their respects, their attitude extremely respectful.
Andrew nodded slightly and turned to Dikor. His gaze put immense pressure on Dikor.
After a moment's thought, Dikor bowed slightly and said, "Greetings, Lord." Though it was a formal greeting, Dikor still made no attempt to hide his arrogance.
Andrew looked at him with a sense of admiration; regardless of other qualities, this man was at least a brave man.
" Dikor, sixteen years ago, you injured a squad of my guards, didn't you?" Andrew asked in a deep voice.
Dikor smiled. "That's right, I did it. I, Dikor, am a man of my word, and I will never deny what I've done."
Andrew nodded and said, "I must say, you're quite bold to hide in Bloodflame City."
Dikor said proudly, "You flatter me, Lord. It's nothing. What surprises me is that you were able to find me. You know, back in Indigo City, I injured the city guards just like that, yet I escaped unscathed."
Andrew scoffed. This guy was too arrogant. Without reaching their level, he would never understand how terrifying Beirut was.
"Fine, let's leave aside your past deeds and just talk about your crimes in Bloodflame City. Injuring a guard and showing contempt for the city lord are the most deserving of death. I'll give you two choices: surrender or take one of my moves." Andrew stood with his hands behind his back, exuding an imposing aura.
Dikor's expression changed slightly, but he quickly raised his eyebrows and said resolutely, "The Lord of the Manor underestimates me. What difference does it make to me between the two choices?"
"Oh, so you've decided to fight to the death? Heh, there's a difference between the two options, you'll see in a moment. Alright, since you won't choose, I'll choose the second option for you." Andrew said with a smile, as if he didn't even notice Dikor.
The rapier in Dikor's hand trembled, emitting a melodious sound.
"Alright, regardless of anything else, I'll take the Lord's attack first!" He looked around, his heart filled with the determination to die. Facing a Lord, five Seven-Star Fiend, and twenty thousand soldiers, if they weren't in the city and the soldiers couldn't launch an attack, Dikor would have been captured long ago.
Andrew hummed in agreement and waited a few seconds. Suddenly, he called out softly, "Ready? Coming!"
Dikor's face was calm and still, his eyes fixed on Andrew, his whole body tense, and his blue Wind Divine Power condensed into a veil.
"Come on!" Dikor roared in his heart.
Andrew chuckled softly, moved slightly, and suddenly disappeared from Dikor's sight.
"What? This speed..." With his rich combat experience, Dikor immediately realized that his opponent's speed far surpassed his own.
"It's so fast! I can't even see it!" Despair suddenly welled up in Dikor's heart. He had always thought that his speed was unmatched even by Asura expert. However, today he finally realized that his vision was too narrow.
"Boom!"
Before Dikor could react, a deafening roar came from above. Immediately afterward, an overwhelming pressure descended upon him, engulfing him. This power was so strong that even Dikor, who had never known fear, turned deathly pale.
Under pressure, Dikor certainly wouldn't sit idly by. With a surge of Divine Power, he thrust his rapier upwards while simultaneously flying downwards, hoping to dodge the attack. However, the pressure wasn't simply downwards; it sealed him off from all sides.
Dikor felt immense pressure from all sides, leaving him nowhere to escape, unable even to thrust his sword forward...
"Is this Asura powerhouse is? It's a pity I only learned about it today..." These were Dikor's last thoughts before he closed his eyes.
