A Core Ship From The Start
Chapter 712 - Chapter 712 Chapter 523 Flame Demon Beast_2

Chapter 712: Chapter 523 Flame Demon Beast_2 Chapter 712: Chapter 523 Flame Demon Beast_2 And like this, another chase was ignited!

Of course, Duanmu Huai and Lorena took in the scene as well.

“Wow, the Golden Pupil really is awesome….”

Upon seeing Mary fleeing, Duanmu Huai spoke in awe-filled words. Mary might have not noticed it, but the moment she turned around and ran, flames on the Flame Monster exploded and targeted Mary. However, the flames, which could even burn the pitch on the floor, disappeared in an instant upon contacting Mary. Mary seemed to have not felt anything at all ……

Duanmu Huai saw the charred corpse from before, it was very clear that it was the doing of the Flame Monster. But once again attempting its same tricks led to another failure, forcing it to painstakingly give chase on its four legs…

True to say, the Golden Pupil really is the nemesis of these demon beasts.

Seeing this, Duanmu Huai nodded approval in secret. Luckily, game players didn’t discover this ability of the Golden Pupil, otherwise, they would have gone mad. You see, unless the real world is eroded to a certain stage, Evil Gods in the Subspace can only harm people through various magic and sorcery. With the Golden Pupil, they could directly resist these magic and sorcery, rendering them completely ineffective. If players were aware of this ability, they would definitely try to seize it at all costs.

After all, with the Golden Pupil, even the Four Great Evil Gods would not be a threat, they could even fight on equal footing with Nyar…

However, it is unfortunate that the one possessing the Golden Pupil was not him, but Mary.

No matter how you put it…Mary, with her strong will, is still an ordinary person. Duanmu Huai was also considering whether he should invite her to join the Tribunal.

Generally speaking, there would be no issue if Mary decided to join the Tribunal with the power of the Golden Pupil. Despite her insignificant combat strength, the Golden Pupil itself could ensure that Mary would not be affected by magic or sorcery, and the only way to kill her would be through physical attacks. However, the Tribunal is well-equipped with means to resist physical attacks.

However, compared to others, Mary is just too normal.

This isn’t a derogatory term, every member currently in the Tribunal has experienced numerous bloody battles.

Even Sherry, who originally escaped from the zombie-ridden Raccoon City.

If anything, only Mary Rose and Ekinoka, who haven’t experienced any crises, are associate members of the Tribunal. They mainly just assist Duanmu Huai in the management of Venus Island without participating in any combats, playing volleyball on the beach in swimsuits.

As for what kind of volleyball they play – this is open to your interpretation.

However, Mary Clarissa Christie is different. With the power of the Golden Pupil, Duanmu Huai would naturally put her on the front line, as the Golden Pupil, capable of exposing all illusions, made the Cunning Deception and powdered monsters powerless before Mary. Regardless of what form they take, Mary could see through their physical bodies at a glance.

As such, this is undoubtedly useful in combat.

But the question is… Does Mary herself want this?

Duanmu Huai gazed at Mary, shaking his head slightly; in his opinion, unlike Sherry who had experienced the biohazard crisis and thus developed a determined mind and high aspirations, Mary, though brave and strong, still embodies the character of a young girl. If she and her friends weren’t involved in this incident, Mary would probably not consider taking action. Furthermore, fighting on the front line against minions of Evil Gods is extremely dangerous. If Mary herself has no such intention, taking her would be equivalent to sending her to death.

Let alone a situation where the Evil Gods get the Golden Pupil by accident, that would be losing both the lady and the troops.

Let’s just keep observing.

If it were someone else, Duanmu Huai might have given up already, but the Golden Pupil is really too powerful… It is almost omnipotent. Besides having Mary chased by demons like Monk Tang, it seems that there are no side effects at all, and the benefits outweigh the negatives.

It facilitates the auto-interpretation of ancient texts.

It allows the expose of illusions.

It completely resists Subspace magic and sorcery.

If it weren’t for Mary’s own physical fitness being too ordinary, this script would fully embody Dragon Proud Sky.

Well, after everything ends, I’ll invite Mary again and see if she would like to become a member of the Tribunal.

With these thoughts, Duanmu Huai reeled in his emotions to focus on the path ahead.

“The fish has bitten the bait. Make your move!”

“Roger that, Sir Knight!”

At this moment, Mary had no clue about Duanmu Huai’s thought process. She was desperately running, running an endless stretch. Duanmu Huai had previously explained the Dark City as a spider web spun by these monsters. When these monsters intend to kill, they have to unfurl this space and trap their prey in it, ensuring they remain unscathed from outside interferences.

But the same goes for the monsters as well.

If they showed up just as the monsters began to appear, there’s every chance they might alert it. If it abandons the Dark City for reality, it becomes next to impossible to track it again due to the abundance of people in the real world. Where could they possibly search?

That’s why they relied on Mary as bait to lure them deep into the Dark City. In such a way, neither can Mary escape, nor can the monster.

Just like at this very moment!

“Roar——!!!”

Despite having four legs, the Flame Monster was no match for Mary’s running skills, a result of Miss Lorena’s ‘Sparta-style’ training. Mary’s skills coupled with her immunity to the flames due to her Golden Pupil forced the Flame Monster to chase her on its four legs akin to the Steel Monster. For a time, it did not manage to catch up.

But the Flame Monster evidently had no intentions of abandoning its pursuit. With a bellowing roar, one could see several flaming dogs split from Flame Monster’s body. With terrifying howls, they lunged towards Mary!

“Woof woof woof!!!”

Hearing the barking from behind, Mary quickened her pace. Fortunately, she spotted Miss Lorena approaching her from the distance at that very moment.

“Miss Lorena!”

“You’ve done well, Miss Mary, leave the rest to us!”

“Eh?”

Seeing Lorena approaching, Mary was initially relieved, but then she quickly tensed up. In her eyes, Lorena, like her good friend Asherica, was a small and young girl without a weapon. How could she deal with these terrifying monsters?

At this thought, Mary quickly turned around to gaze at Lorena, only to witness an utterly astonishing scene.

“Woof woof woof!!!”

Facing Lorena, the flame dogs didn’t show any signs of giving up. The one leading them leaped high in the air, mouth wide open, aiming straight for Lorena’s throat. Seeing this, Mary was instantly filled with apprehension.

“Miss Lorena, be careful!”

However, her warning was too late. A shocking scene unfolded before her gaze.

Lorena, facing the lunging flame dog, grabbed hold of the Holy Canon in her hands without hesitation. She high-handedly wheeled it overhead and smashed it forth directly onto the snapping jaws of the Flame Monster!

“Bang!!”

Followed by a muffled thud, Mary watched as the fearsome Flame Dog was instantly bowled over by Lorena’s book blow, its head bursting apart like a firework, dissolving into a burst of flame that dispersed into the air. Then, swiftly swiveling around, Lorena swung the Holy Canon like a windmill, instantly sending the remaining few flame dogs flying through the air.

“……………”

After witnessing this spectacle, Mary was left in a complete state of shock.

Could training actually yield such results??
