Chapter 176 The Unexpected Warrior

Four 'reserve apostles' with combat power close to the glory level were all knocked down in less than two minutes. Luo Qiu did not think that he had done anything remarkable, but the same could not be said for the 'Valkyrie' and the 'Glorious Knight'.

Although they all knew how powerful Luo Qiu was, his performance just now was still too astonishing. The power he displayed was simply not on the same level as that of humans.

Luo Qiu ignored the Valkyrie and the Glorious Knight who were shocked by him, walked up to Bernie, hooked his finger, and said, "Next, you are the only one left, are you ready?"

"If it was me yesterday, I would have turned around and ran away." Bernie seemed to have calmed down. "But now I have the divine relic with me. Even you are not qualified to fight me."

The glittering golden armor seemed to give Bernie great confidence. He raised his magic sword and said indifferently: "No matter how powerful your attack is, you can't hurt me. I believe you should know this best."

"Junior, let me teach this guy a lesson first." Aiqier came over at some point and grabbed Luo Qiu who was about to use the 'Hand of Stealing Air'.

"You are so brave to bully my companions wearing only a broken turtle shell. You really have the guts." Aiqier looked very angry. She had been enduring Bernie for a long time and would feel unhappy if she didn't vent.

"Please go ahead." Luo Qiu did not stop her.

Although Aiqier's level exceeds the limit of the Golden Armor of Thorns, Bernie's magic sword just restrains her. However, it is still easy to teach Bernie a lesson.

“Holy Light Wheel!”

Two huge rotating light wheels were suspended on Aiqier's hands. Aiqier moved her wrists and the two light wheels flew towards Bernie, as if to cut his body in half.

"A pointless attack."

Bernie took the initiative to face the Holy Light Wheel, which was just in time to replenish the magic power lost by his magic sword.

"What?" Bernie discovered something was wrong the moment the magic sword Kruvim came into contact with the Holy Light Wheel.

The holy light wheel released by Aiqier is not an ordinary holy light wheel at all. The magical power contained in it is almost the same as that of great magic.

Bernie could easily break high-level magic, but big magic required some effort. Two big magics came one after another, and the huge pressure made him almost breathless.

The arms holding the magic sword were shaking and the muscles were sore. Bernie gritted his teeth and held on, allowing Kruvim to absorb the magic power of the Holy Light Wheel.

Although Aiqier is scary, Bernie feels that Luo Qiu is truly unfathomable. If he fights him, he must use Kruvim's power to the limit to have a chance of winning.

"Absorb my magic power? Then I'll give you a few more to absorb to your heart's content."

Aiqier formed a strange hand seal with her hands, and a half-human-sized magic circle appeared in front of her. Aiqier covered the magic circle with one hand, and slightly stimulated the magic power. Hundreds of sharp arrows of light flew towards Bernie.

"Steel armor is indestructible!"

In front of Bernie, a sturdy figure appeared. Although he was covered in wounds, he still launched a defensive fighting skill and used his body as a shield to block in front of Bernie.

"You woke up so quickly?" Even Luo Qiu was surprised. He thought that Greg would sleep for at least half a day after being hit by him, but he didn't expect that he woke up in such a short time.

This time Luo Qiu had indeed misjudged.

Greg had already gone through all kinds of training on his way to becoming a master of physical training. In order to strengthen his physique, his willpower had also been honed to be extremely strong, more than one level higher than those of the same level.

After waking up, Greg saw Aiqier performing hand seals. His warrior instinct made him sense a great threat from Aiqier, so being a straightforward person, he didn't even think about whether Bernie, who was wearing the divine relic, needed his help. He rushed directly in front of Bernie and used his body to block Aiqier's magic for Bernie.

Although Greg activated his defensive fighting skills, he was still not immune to Aiqier's magic. One after another, the sharp arrows of light penetrated his body, and in a moment, he was shot into a sieve. "Bernie, be careful." Greg grinned with difficulty, saying only these four words before slowly falling down.

This time, he really couldn't stand up again.

Greg's blood dyed the ground red, adding a bloody atmosphere to the martial arts training ground. The moment he fell, Bernie also completely devoured the magic power of the Holy Light Wheel.

He walked over to Greg's body, silent.

Greg's behavior was beyond everyone's expectations. No one would have thought that this big man would choose to sacrifice himself at the critical moment. Even Bernie himself was a little surprised.

He originally thought that his absolute control over these prospective apostles should make them hate him, but some things always happen unexpectedly.

Greg's death calmed Aiqi'er's originally angry heart a lot, and she suddenly lost some interest. She stared at Greg's body for two or three seconds, turned around and said to Luo Qiu: "Junior, I'm tired, I'll leave it to you next."

"You are really willful." Luo Qiu shook his head.

The current mess seemed to be thrown to Luo Qiu to clean up.

"You don't look sad?" Luo Qiu discovered a problem.

After Greg's death, Bernie seemed to feel a moment of pain, but then he immediately returned to his usual cold self, as if the person who had just died was just an irrelevant passerby.

"Why should you be sad?" Bernie asked back.

"I am the man who will become the king in the future, the future king of the human kingdom. On the way to becoming the king, it is normal to step on thousands of dead bones. Why should I be sad because of the death of one person?"

Bernie's words were shocking, and his cold tone didn't sound like a joke at all.

The members of the Valkyrie and the Brilliant Knights glared at him.

As adventurers, they value their companions in a way that others cannot imagine. For adventurers, their feelings for their companions even surpass those for their relatives, because they entrust each other with every adventure, and the feelings they put into their companions are also unimaginable to others.

Bernie's move undoubtedly put him in the opposite direction of all adventurers.

"Huh?" Bernie swung his sword, deflecting an arrow shot from behind, and looked at the attacker with a frown.

Einbert nocked another arrow, all the fighting spirit in his body gathered towards the bowstring, preparing to use that terrible arrow.

"Don't waste your energy." Luo Qiu stopped Einbert's behavior.

Bernie was wearing the golden armor of thorns, which meant that no matter how Einbert attacked, it would be in vain and a sheer waste of energy.

"Idol, help me give him a good punch!" Einbert said hatefully.

"Don't worry, I would do it even if you don't tell me."

"I've been here for so long, and this is the first time I really hate someone so much from the bottom of my heart."

Luo Qiu's voice gradually became colder.
