Chapter 122: Chapter 122: Who is the Villain?_1

Time rolled back, everything reverted back to five seconds earlier.

Lu Yao was still wandering with her back to the park, while Mu You turned around looking towards a certain direction.

This place was precisely where the werewolf was hiding. He felt no abnormalities, suggesting the werewolf might have arrived earlier, lying in wait observing for a long time before deciding to strike.

Soon, the hook once again burst forth from the undergrowth.

This time, Mu You saw it clearly, the hook came from behind a patch of wild vegetation.

Seeing the chain claws about to hit Lu Yao, Mu You took one step forward, blocking her with his body, swiftly grabbing the chain claws. Meanwhile, the chain claws automatically closed into a loop, wrapping around his arm.

The function of these chain claws is to execute effectively, once hooked onto something, they would immediately retreat.

Thus, instead of carrying off Lu Yao, it carried Mu You towards the bushes.

At this time, the werewolf in the distance had already stood up, seeing the hook returning swiftly but the claw was empty, he immediately understood the situation and was not too surprised.

He had long suspected that this newcomer might be lying in ambush nearby, after all, in his view, this newbie is clearly a thug raised by Lu Yao to help her.

He just never expected that this person would dare to directly grab his chain claws.

"Suicidal!"

The werewolf sneered, this was exactly according to his plans, dealing with two at the same time! Immediately, he tossed a handful of powder, breaking all the invisibility effects in the surroundings.

The Invisibility Cloak no longer worked, revealing the true face of the vampire hidden under the cloak.

"Since you insist on dying for someone else, I’ll oblige you!"

The werewolf laughed loudly, holding up a curled-tip long blade in his right hand, slashing towards the incoming figure.

The chain claws’ pull was too fast, Mu You inevitably lost balance in midair, rushing forward like a kite with its string cut.

But, right when he was about to approach the werewolf, Mu You suddenly jerked the chain claws.

A tremendous force was transmitted, causing the werewolf to stumble forward a few steps, almost tripping. The blade in his hand also slashed the empty air.

The werewolf was somewhat incredulous: this person’s strength was even higher than his own?

There was no time to think further, the vampire overhead was swiftly closing in, and in his right hand, he astonishingly held that Bone-Breaking Knife.

Seeing this weapon which used to be his exclusive weapon, the werewolf was consumed by a surge of anger, and at that moment, quickly retreated a few steps.

Being the original owner of this knife, no one knew better than him about the effects of this knife, at this moment, he could only dodge its sharp front.

The werewolf immediately unlocked the chain claws, simultaneously his figure rapidly charged out.

His agility was the strongest of all his attributes, so the werewolf never thought he might fail to dodge.

However, after Mu You landed, he initiated a step, being the last to start but the first to arrive, instantaneously catching up to the werewolf, chopping his right leg with a sword, triggering the crippling effect, immediately making the werewolf’s speed extremely sluggish. Simultaneously, the ’bleeding’ effect also started, this wound could not be healed by his recovery power in a short time.

Still unsatisfied, Mu You charged one step closer, landed a knee on the werewolf’s stomach.

Using this set of adept street fighting moves, the werewolf felt as if all his internal organs shifted from the impact, crying out miserably, losing balance and falling to the ground. At this, he incredulously glared at Mu You: "This...Is impossible, how could you be this strong?"

It seemed that not only was his strength surpassed by the other party, but his speed was completely crushed as well. His attributes were all-round subdued by a newbie?

While the werewolf was dumbfounded, Mu You did not bother to talk, as he fell, the Bone-Breaking Knife entered the cooling period. He threw it away, and Vampire Claws rapidly emerged from both of his hands. One hand firmly gripped the werewolf’s right arm, making it impossible for him to move, while the other hand’s claws, at lighting speed, lunged straight into his heart!

"Clang!"

The result was a crisp sound of metal meeting metal.

His claw unexpectedly could not penetrate, as the tip felt like it had hit something extremely hard, being rebounded back, and also flipping two of the claw’s fingers back!

"Haha, did you really think that I wouldn’t be aware of how to avoid it while knowing my own weakness?" the werewolf sneered when he saw this.

Mu You took no notice of him, staring at the werewolf’s chest where his claw failed to penetrate, but it scraped through the clothes, revealing the object hidden underneath. It was a shiny black heart-guarding mirror.

"Obsidian Heart-guarding Mirror: Heart-guarding mirror forged by obsidian, extremely sturdy, can deflect three physical attacks aimed at heart, with a chance to damage the opponent’s weapon. Current remaining times 2/3."

"So that’s how it is."

Upon seeing the attributes fed back by the Omniscient Crystal, Mu You didn’t hesitate and immediately rewound time.

Five seconds prior, Mu You disabled the werewolf with his usual combo, but this time, instead of attacking its heart, he moved behind it, pricking its two arms with his claws. He immobilized the werewolf in a strangulation pose and then called out to the distance, "Now!"

Lu Yao, who was standing afar, was somewhat flabbergasted.

Indeed, as agreed, Mu You had blocked the attack for her. But what happened next she couldn’t quite understand. She thought that after being grabbed by the werewolf, he would struggle to resist, injuring himself in the process of creating an opportunity for her to cast a spell. But now...

It was clear that he was solely beating the werewolf to a pulp. In just a few seconds, he took out one of the werewolf’s legs and two arms, and then using a physical restraint technique, ’strangulation’, he stuck the werewolf to the ground, looking as if he still has lots of strength to spare...

Suddenly, Lu Yao felt that even without her, Mu You alone would be capable enough to kill the werewolf without a scratch... So just what was she here for today?

Pushing these thoughts aside, Lu Yao quickly regained her composure. Not daring to hesitate, she raised her Magic Wand promptly and began Chanting spells.

The werewolf, seeing the shifting lights at the tip of Lu Yao’s Magic Wand, began to panic and screamed to its ally, "What are you waiting for? Do it now!"

As it finished its cry, a knight in shining silver armor suddenly jumped out from nearby bushes.

Mu You glanced at the Sanctuary Guard. This werewolf was clever. It had summoned the Sanctuary Guard in advance and had it positioned where the knight could launch a pincer attack on Lu Yao, killing her once and for all. Too bad Mu You had foiled their plan.

The moment the Sanctuary Guard appeared, Mu You had already taken note of its attributes.

"Level 17 Sanctuary Guard (Humanoid Summon), Strength 17, Agility 17, Intelligence 25, Constitution 81, HP 8100, Mana 2500, Abilities: Multi-target Taunt, Single-target Provocation, Shield Block, Knight Charge..."

As expected, it was a summon with high defense and low offense capabilities. Its extreme bias in Attributes considerably reduced its Combat Power, making it weaker than he had anticipated.

The moment the Sanctuary Guard appeared, it immediately made a waved gesture towards Mu You from a distance.

Provocation!

This was a targeted spell that could be used over long distances, unlike multi-target Taunt which had to be cast nearby. This skill could be used at a very far distance.

Obviously, it aimed to free the werewolf. However, when the spell was cast, there was a soft popping sound around Mu You, like an invisible bubble bursting.

And then, nothing happened.

Such targeted skills are perfectly countered by the Tenacious Light.

That delay allowed Lu Yao enough time to fully form her spell.

To the werewolf’s horror, a bolt of white lightning shot out from the tip of the Magic Wand and hit the werewolf’s chest.

After the lightning passed, there were no external injuries on the werewolf’s body, but its heart had disintegrated into mincemeat.

Only then did Mu You let it go. The werewolf crumbled, its face twisted in pain as it bled from every orifice, dying on the spot.

The werewolf was dead. That should have been the end. But the Sanctuary Guard did not stop. It accelerated and charged at Mu You.

Mu You frowned. He had a hunch and quickly picked up the Bone-Breaking Knife on the ground.

But the next second, he fell into the Sanctuary Guard’s Taunt and his body involuntarily charged at the knight.

Meanwhile, a red feather silently appeared on the spot where the werewolf had died, swiftly transforming into a ring of fire, enveloping the corpse.

In the raging fire, the werewolf’s wounds disappeared completely, and it shakily stood back up.

"Just as I thought, it also got a Phoenix Feather..." Mu You thought regretfully. However, his body was still out of control and continued to charge at the Sanctuary Guard.

Under the status of Taunt, you either need to kill the taunting opponent first, or get another person to attack you before you can shift the hate target.

Upon resurrecting, the werewolf didn’t care about Mu You or the Sanctuary Guard and straightforwardly charged at Lu Yao without a second thought.

As expected, the most dangerous one was still this woman, because she had the means to directly threaten its life!

Of course, the werewolf couldn’t deny that it had developed a hint of fear towards Mu You!

The short bout earlier made the werewolf feel like it was facing some sort of Ancient Great God, rather than a newbie. This had left a deep scar in its psychology.

What was more terrifying, however, was Mu You’s gaze!

That was a gaze that was always calm, without a tinge of surprise or joy. It was as if he wasn’t dealing with a living creature, but just a corpse.

The werewolf felt like Mu You bore an unseen demon in his soul. Hated and bloody, it remained well-hidden most of the time but would reveal itself during a fight. This made the werewolf somewhat unable to tell, who exactly was the real monster?
