1017 Compensation

Dylas had a dark expression, but he remained silent.

‘If I cause trouble without any evidence, Mafa Merlin would be able to use it against me and the other forces would be unable to back me up. Damnit, those b*stards from Sky City are actually siding with Mafa Merlin… Just wait and see, this isn’t over!’

Dylas didn’t say anything, but one of his subordinates sneered and walked to Lin Yun before directly flipping the table Lin Yun was using for his calculations.

Lin Yun’s intense calculations were immediately interrupted and the runes roaming within his eyes slowly dissipated as he raised his head.

After raising his head, Lin Yun looked at the man in front of him with a startled and angry expression.

Before he could say anything, Dylas’ subordinate raised his head and sneered at the startled Lin Yun.

“Mafa Merlin, you dare to act as if you didn’t hear anything! Damn scoundrel, you’ll be done for if you don’t give us a satisfactory explanation today!”

This sudden event roused all the alchemists immersed in calculations. The three alchemists from Sky City were appalled as they looked at Dylas’ subordinate.

Raphael’s calculations were also interrupted and he glared at Dylas’ subordinate with shock and anger.

Dylas’ subordinate didn’t feel anything, and while Dylas felt something amiss, he still sneered at Lin Yun, “Mafa Merlin, you have to give us a satisfactory explanation today!”

Lin Yun suddenly calmed down, and thought aloud, “A satisfactory explanation? Good!”

Dylas’ subordinate disdainfully sneered, “Andlusan country bumpkin, if you aren’t taught a lesson, you…”

Dylas’ subordinate didn’t have time to finish his words as a Hell Vine suddenly grew under his feet. The arm-thick Hell Vine rapidly extended and bound Dylas’ subordinate in an instant.

Sharp thorns were growing all over the dark red vine. It was like a snake as it took less than a second to wrap around Dylas’ subordinate, the sharp thorns piercing his skin.

The Hell Vine was like a snake constricting its meal, and the sharp thorns were like knives piercing that mage’s body and slowly cutting his flesh.

Blood leaked out, but not a single drop fell to the ground, it was all absorbed by the Hell Vine.

This sudden situation stunned Dylas, and he promptly roused his Dark Night Cloak to protect himself.

“Mafa Merlin, f*ck, what the hell are you doing!?”

Bone cracking sounds echoed before he could finish his words. The Hell Vine was like a bloodthirsty snake. Under Lin Yun’s rousing, that subordinate’s blood was completely drained and his bones were then turned into fragments.

After a gorgeous meal, the Hell Vine dropped the crippled dried corpse and disappeared underground.

That was the guy that had flipped Lin Yun’s table. He had died in an instant, his mana, blood, and even his soul had been cleanly sucked dry by the Hell Vine, under Lin Yun’s control, and treated as fertilizer. After digesting his soul, the Hell Vine could turn into a plant magic beast. It might even be able to form a restricted death area.

Lin Yun expressionlessly raised his head and looked at Dylas.

“You want an explanation? I’ll give you an explanation.”

Cold sweat trickled down Dylas’ forehead and he involuntarily took a step back.

‘Damnit, damnit, that guy actually dared to make a move against us? He actually dared to kill someone from our Shadow Tower? Isn’t he afraid of our Shadow Tower’s retaliation?

‘There are so many people here, he absolutely can’t conceal it, the Shadow Tower will definitely retaliate against him. Does he really dare to attack me?’

Dylas wasn’t as confident as before when it came to facing Lin Yun’s attack. Cold sweat trickled down his back as he recalled Lin Yun’s previous burst of power comparable to the power of a Heaven Rank powerhouse.

And how could the others not notice this sudden burst of mana fluctuations and that person’s death.

Dedale rushed to the scene and frowned as he looked at the corpse.

He hadn’t stopped Dylas from going to ask with his subordinate, he was exhausted after the three battles.

But he hadn’t expected the situation to reach this stage.

“What’s going on?” Dedale asked.

Dylas promptly hid behind Dedale and pointed at Lin Yun with shock.

“It’s that damned guy! I only wanted to ask what was going on, yet he killed a member of the Shadow Tower and wants to kill me now!”

Dylas’ acting like a thief shouting thief made Lin Yun’s eyes flash with killing intent and his body emit fierce mana fluctuations.

At this time, Raphael seemed to have recovered and promptly rushed over, pulling Lin Yun to his side first.
