CHAPTER 131: I WILL CHOP YOU TO DEATH.

Today’s seven pieces of intelligence were all quite valuable in Carlotta’s opinion. She planned to first go to the location mentioned in the fourth piece of intelligence. It required passing by the edge of a resonator monster’s territory, which wasn’t far from her current route, so she could pick up the tokens there along the way.

Holding Amelia, she moved at a considerable speed under the scarlet moonlight, then suddenly sped off.

After running for a while, Carlotta slowed down slightly. She had already approached the edge of a resonator monster’s territory.

Here, she looked at the map, carefully identified the location, and then smoothly arrived at a heavily damaged area, riddled with holes from battles.

The most conspicuous thing in the area was a giant monster’s palm print, leaving behind a massive crater large enough to hold many people.

In fact, the giant palm print crater was indeed filled with bloody remains and bones. The way these people died was extremely tragic.

Besides the corpses, there were also various residual items. Monsters were not interested in these "trophies" belonging to humans, so they were all left there.

However, to be honest, there weren’t many useful things left.

Carlotta glanced around and saw that even alchemical items were damaged. It was difficult for them to survive a resonator monster’s attack. However, the token from Sky Island, made from the bones of some unknown creature and with an unknown crafting method, was incredibly hard and showed no signs of damage.

"It seems we’re quite lucky to stumble upon some relics for free."

Carlotta said as she gently put Amelia down.

She attributes the acquisition of these relics to good luck.

The two entered the crater and collected some items. In a short while, they gathered all the usable things. However, the usable items, even when added together, didn’t hold much value, as most of them were damaged. Only the tokens were worth paying attention to.

"102 tokens, there are so many."

Carlotta couldn’t help but sighed.

No wonder the events here were included in the intelligence system; the remaining tokens were indeed quite abundant.

Then, the number of tokens in the other area should not be low either, likely exceeding a hundred.

After collecting these tokens, Carlotta looked at her rapidly increasing ranking and couldn’t help but sighed inwardly.

Rank 162: Moon 157.

This also made Amelia sigh. She felt their luck was really good, as they had obtained so many tokens without expending much effort in the token competition.

Amelia also gained more confidence in achieving a good ranking.

"Let’s keep going."

Carlotta picked up Amelia again.

This made Amelia blush slightly. She felt she could walk on her own, but Carlotta’s movements were too fast, and she was picked up before she could react.

Now that she was already being held, she couldn’t say much more.

Holding the beautiful girl in her arms, Carlotta headed towards the mountain again, her destination being the vast lake indicated on the map.

The night was vast, and the mountain wind howled.

From time to time, the roars of monsters could be heard in the mountain forest, rising and falling, howling incessantly.

Under normal circumstances, Carlotta would have to be cautious, but knowing from the intelligence that there were no powerful monsters here, she was much more at ease and could proceed at full speed.

Even if she encountered monsters along the way, she didn’t care. She was too lazy to engage with them. With the enhancement of the speed card, she was gone in a flash. Even if these monsters wanted to attack her, they couldn’t catch up. After chasing for a distance, they could only glare as she carried Amelia away.

The moonlight was hazy, illuminating the mountaintop.

A vast lake appeared, shimmering and reflecting a mesmerizing glow as tranquil as a fairy tale.

It wasn’t quiet here. As the source of water, there were quite a few monsters, but it was rare that there were no fights, and they coexisted completely.

This was not strange. Because this was the water source, the monsters, like ordinary wild beasts, would follow an instinctual rule and would not engage in killing in such a place.

When Carlotta arrived with Amelia, the monsters merely glanced at her before looking away.

Carlotta put Amelia down and said, "It seems my judgment was correct. There is indeed a vast body of water here. We can rest here for a while. If those guys dare to chase us, we’ll bury them here."

Amelia said, "You are quite confident. That’s a peak tier Listener. Without a bit of luck, they wouldn’t be so easy to deal with."

"Don’t worry, if we really can’t win, I’ll just carry you and run again," Carlotta said with a playful smile.

Thinking of the way Carlotta would carry her to run, which was a princess carry, Amelia’s pretty face couldn’t help but blush slightly.

Under the scarlet illumination, it was impossible to tell if she was blushing or if the moonlight was just too bright.

Amelia immediately went to the water’s edge and waved her hand, causing the Moonlight to appear gently on the water, then quickly became invisible.

Even though the Moonlight only made a fleeting appearance, its emergence startled the surrounding monsters, causing them to retreat several steps. However, as the Moonlight disappeared immediately afterward, the monsters didn’t know if they had seen it correctly.

Next was rest time. Carlotta did not choose to challenge the sky rankings because midnight had passed, and the ten challenge opportunities for today had been recalculated. She no longer needed to rush to use these opportunities.

Next, it was time to recuperate.

Monsters came and went around them. After replenishing their water, they wouldn’t linger. The roars of monsters continued to echo in the mountains.

Suddenly, a rustling sound came from behind.

Carlotta turned her head and narrowed her eyes, "They’ve finally come."

From the jungle behind, Amber’s figure emerges, her shadow stretched long by the scarlet moonlight. One hand rested on the sword at her waist, exuding a sharp aura.

Behind Amber, many figures followed, each one a Listener. Standing together, they formed a formidable pressure.

"Found you again."

Amber’s eyes were cold as she stared at Carlotta and Amelia. "Keep running, keep being mice. I’ll see how far you can run. No matter where you go, I will find you. You can try again if you don’t believe me."

Her expression was cold, and she wasn’t worried that Carlotta and Amelia could truly escape. After all, people always needed to rest, and there would be monsters and other explorers interfering along the way. How could they run for an extended period?

"I’m not running anymore."

Carlotta pulled the Rose Cross from her necklace and pointed at Amber and the others. "Next, I plan to chop you all to death."

.......

Amber led the group closer, completely disregarding Carlotta’s words. In her eyes, Carlotta was merely good at running thanks to cards infused with Wind God Stones. What real combat power could an apprentice possess?

"I’ll take their heads for Lady Parker."

Someone beside her immediately spoke up.

Amber nodded slightly, granting permission.

This was a tall man, wielding a rapier. He moved his feet, rushing forward rapidly, the tip of his sword exuding a cold glint, aimed directly at Carlotta’s head.

Carlotta gripped the Rose Cross tightly, coldly watching the opponent approach and approach. When the distance was just right, she suddenly made her move.

Elven Light, Elven Starfall, Elven Moon Devourer!

Carlotta merged the three movements into one, a destructive aura permeating the air. Simultaneously, with the enhancement of the Speed Card, she flickered and appeared before the tall man, unleashing the attack in her hand with a roar.

The next moment, under the gaze of many, the tall man’s head flew into the air, spinning several times before landing on the ground, leaving a trail of blood as it rolled away.

This scene caused everyone on Amber’s side to change their expressions drastically, disbelieving what they had seen.

How could a beginner Listener die so easily? The opponent was merely a ninth-tier apprentice!

The scene fell silent for a moment.

Carlotta said unhurriedly, "I told you, I plan to kill you next."

At this moment, no one could ignore Carlotta’s words anymore.

After a long silence, Amber slowly spoke, "You don’t seem like an apprentice at all, but in the end, you are still an apprentice."

She ordered the other beginner Listeners to retreat and form an encirclement, deeming further intervention unnecessary.

She herself would handle it.

Amber drew the sword at her waist and walked over unhurriedly. When she was within a certain distance, she swung her sword from afar.

The next instant, a crescent-shaped sword aura slashed towards them, arriving before Carlotta in the blink of an eye.

Carlotta moved her feet, dodging to the side, but the sword aura actually curved and continued to pursue her.

This was just the beginning. Amber continued to swing her sword, and in an instant, brilliant light erupted before her. Large swathes of sword aura were unleashed by her, dense and numerous, completely surrounding Carlotta and displaying terrifying lethality.

At a critical moment, Amelia intervened.

As mana surged around her, she made a move, and more... The sword aura appeared in the void!

She directly replicated the sword aura knight path from her memory of Amber, causing a large amount of sword aura to howl and rush towards Amber’s sword aura.

The sword aura she constructed with memory magic was smaller in size, yet equally tough and swift. Upon colliding with Amber’s sword aura, it exploded with a roar, causing the sword aura of both sides to cancel each other out.

The sky full of sword aura was actually dispersed in a short time by Amber’s methods.

"Oh?"

Such a scene caused Amber’s heart to tremble slightly, and she looked deeply at Amelia.

What was going on? An apprentice who could contend with a Listener, and now she encountered two of them?

What was the origin of these two?

Amber keenly felt that something was wrong. Apprentices of this level, could they have an incredibly formidable background behind them? If so, had she completely offended them by pursuing them all this way?

’I can only kill them all. No matter what background they have, if they die on Sky Island, who will know?’

Amber’s eyes showed an increasingly cold killing intent.

Although Amelia had used sword aura to block sword aura, breaking her sword aura, which surprised her greatly, that was merely the most ordinary sword aura she had unleashed with her sword aura knight path.

Not all sword aura was so easy to deal with!

Amber raised her sword high, and the sky was filled with starlight. She then slashed forward, and a sword aura dotted with starlight appeared, this was Star Brilliance Sword aura.

She continued to raise her sword, absorbing the moonlight from the sky, and then slashed forward, unleashing a crimson sword aura, this was Moon Brilliance Sword aura.

The two sword aura were directed at the two women respectively. Before they even got close, they made Carlotta and Amelia feel an uncomfortable sensation of their bodies being torn apart.

Amelia made the first move, condensing sword aura again and slashing towards them. However, several strands of sword aura collided with the Star Brilliance Sword aura and shattered like butter hitting a carriage, posing no obstacle whatsoever.

She tried to directly construct the same Star Brilliance Sword aura, but found that the construction failed. This sword aura was too profound, making it impossible for her to construct it for a while. Her understanding of Star Brilliance Sword aura in her memory was too superficial.

With no other option, Amelia had to construct other things to block the Star Brilliance Sword aura, be it shields or rocks, constantly creating obstacles, only then managing to dissipate the Star Brilliance Sword aura.

On the other side, Carlotta also made continuous moves, her sword light dazzling, and she managed to break the Moon Brilliance Sword aura.

Amber watched calmly throughout this process.

"I have a general understanding of your strength. It’s truly impressive. Perhaps even a middle tier Listener would have a hard time against you. Unfortunately, you happened to encounter me."

Amber was very confident, believing the outcome of this battle was already decided. These two girls were definitely not her match.

Even blocking a single Star Brilliance Sword aura and Moon Brilliance Sword aura was so difficult, what about many Star Brilliance Sword aura or Moon Brilliance Sword aura?

Although she couldn’t unleash such special sword aura as freely as ordinary sword aura, unleashing many special sword aura of this level simultaneously was not a problem.

Amber raised her hand, and the starlight descended, filling her body, making her appear somewhat hazy.

Seeing this, Carlotta and Amelia quickly retreated, moving towards the lakeside.

As the battle ensued, the surrounding monsters scattered. The large lakeside was only occupied by their respective groups.

Upon reaching the lake, Carlotta and Amelia immediately stepped onto the Moonlight, which was already in a stealth state. To the eyes of others, they suddenly disappeared.

"Where did they go?"

The Listeners who followed Amber changed their expressions, looking around, not knowing what had happened. Had they let them escape again?

Amber, however, looked deeply at the spot where Carlotta and Amelia had disappeared. Magic swirled in her eyes, enhancing her perception, and she finally saw the existence of a behemoth.
