"Guild Mage? So you hired Mages for help. But do you think just one Mage can stop so many of us?"
"I'm not alone, you know."
Lu Li walked over with his hands in his pockets.
"What difference does one or two people make? Besides, you're just two brats. Hey brat, we're only here to invite Miss Alice. If you don't want to die, hurry up and get lost. Don't get in my way, or don't blame me for being ruthless."
"Lu Li, there are too many of them. Maybe we should retreat with Miss Alice first."
Erza whispered to Lu Li. The priority mission was to protect the client's safety.
"No need. Just protect Miss Alice well. Leave these guys to me."
"No! There are too many of them! You can't be reckless like this!"
She knew Lu Li was strong, but Lu Li had only been learning magic for a week after all. The opponent had numbers, and their strength was unknown.
Lu Li smiled at Erza: "Don't worry, I cherish my life very much. I won't do anything I'm not sure of."
The conversation between Lu Li and Erza was overheard by the opponents.
"Hahahaha! Brat, I admire your confidence. But isn't your confidence a bit excessive? We aren't Mages living in false peace like you; we are Dark Guild Mages living in the cruel, dark world. Far beyond what you guys can compare to."
Lu Li picked his ear: "Are you done with the nonsense? If you're done, hurry up and start."
"Stinking brat! Get him!"
Several people holding Magic Swords rushed towards Lu Li.
Lu Li curled his lips upon seeing this, muttering with dissatisfaction: "I thought it would be some interesting magic, turns out they are all Magic Swordsmen."
Magic Swordsmen could be considered the most common type of Mage, using their own Magic Power to power Magic Swords for attacks.
This kind of magic was actually quite practical, but he found it boring. He preferred some novel magic.
Erza was actually of this type too, but Erza mainly switched magic armors and weapons to fight.
Flames wrapped around Lu Li's fists and feet. After easily dodging the opponent's attack, he punched one person in the abdomen.
"Ugh-aaaaah!!"
The person screamed in pain and was sent flying by Lu Li's punch. His body fell onto the audience seats below, passing out.
"?!!"
Lu Li's attack startled everyone.
Then Lu Li moved quickly. With the enhancement of his Perception Method, he easily dodged the opponents' attacks. Punching or kicking, in the blink of an eye, more than a dozen people were sent flying by Lu Li.
"Waahhhhh! Lu Li is so amazing!!"
Alice applauded excitedly seeing Lu Li showing off his might.
"Use magic bullets!"
Seeing this, the leader shouted.
Those Dark Guild Mages reacted and hurriedly raised their hands to fire magic bullets at Lu Li.
Lu Li casually flicked his hand, slapping the magic bullets flying towards him away like hitting a volleyball.
"?!!"
"Impossible?!"
"He actually... slapped away my magic bullets?!"
The remaining Dark Guild members were all dumbfounded.
"Looks like there's no novel magic. Then let's end this quickly."
Lu Li raised his right hand and chanted faintly: "Purple Net!"
Whoosh!
A stream of purple fire erupted from Lu Li's palm, forming a net shape that captured almost all the remaining Dark Guild members in the air.
The purple flames rose, igniting everyone who was bound.
"Ugh-aaaaah!"
"Waahhhhh!" ...
Lu Li released the magic, and these people fell onto the stage like dumplings being dumped into a pot, all passing out.
The kidnapper leader's face changed drastically at this moment. He retreated backward, then rushed into the crowd below, grabbing a young woman.
"Don't come over! Or I'll kill her!"
"Waahhh! Don't!"
The young girl was instantly scared weak in the knees, her face full of terror.
"Hypocritical Light Guilds definitely won't allow innocent people to die in front of them, right? Alice! She's your fan. If you don't want your fan to die because of you, you'd better surrender obediently."
"Save... save me!" The girl looked at Alice pleadingly.
Seeing this scene, Alice immediately stood up: "Fine! I'll exchange myself for her! Don't hurt her!"
"Miss Alice!"
The surrounding fans couldn't help but be moved at this moment. They didn't expect Miss Alice to risk her life for a fan.
Just as Alice was about to go over, Lu Li reached out and stopped her.
The kidnapper leader roared at Lu Li: "Hey! Stinking brat! Do you want her to die?!"
His voice was trembling slightly; obviously, he was very afraid of Lu Li.
Lu Li smiled: "My job is to protect my client. Naturally, I can't let my client risk her life. As for you, is this necessary?"
Crackle!
Golden lightning appeared beneath Lu Li's feet.
Swish!
Lu Li's figure flashed, instantly appearing in front of the kidnapper leader.
Immediately after, his arm extended, and his palm grew larger, grabbing the kidnapper leader's head and pressing him towards the ground.
Boom!!!
The ground shattered with a loud crash.
"Cough!" The leader coughed up blood, a look of pain on his face.
A large pit appeared on the ground.
Lu Li stood up and let go. The kidnapper leader's eyes rolled back, and he passed out.
"Alright, it's fine now."
Lu Li said to the girl.
"Thank you! Thank you!"
Escaping death made the girl tearful, constantly thanking Lu Li.
Clap clap clap!
Everyone around applauded enthusiastically. This boy was too amazing. They saw with their own eyes how Lu Li defeated those Mages and protected Alice.
Alice ran over directly, hugged Lu Li with both hands, and kissed Lu Li hard on the cheek.
"Lu Li! You were so handsome!"
Lu Li was also bewildered at this moment. Having lived for more than twenty years, this was the first time he had been kissed by a girl.
Did I... just get taken advantage of?
