Chapter 769

Name:Inhuman Warlock Author:
Once Uzuki located the wrist of the man, the rest was easy for him. He could easily locate the throat of the man from his wrist. 

The man himself was stunned, not expecting him to be caught. For a moment, he didn't even register what had happened. 

A fist came like lightning, crashing on his weak throat, shattering all the bones in his neck, killing him in an instant. 

Uzuki felt blood on his fist. He understood that he was successful. The guy was killed. 

Arthur also noticed the splashes of blood flying everywhere. It didn't take him long to understand what was happening. 

"Someone infiltrated the city."

He didn't directly jump inside the battle, keeping an eye from a distance. He didn't know how many people there were, but he was sure that if he joined, they were going to run. It was going to be really hard to find them after they left. 

Instead, he contacted Kellian and informed him what was happening. He also sent their location along with some visuals. 

Arthur didn't want others to know that he was here. Unfortunately, the mist of Uri was everywhere. He instantly senses the arrival of Arthur. 

He informed Jian, tapping his shoulder. He pointed towards Arthur in the distance. "They know already. We need to leave. If I'm not wrong, we'll be surrounded from all sides soon. It's not worth it."

'That's Arthur... He can Teleport directly here. He isn't joining the battle; that means he wants to wait until everyone is here.'

Jian understood what the plan of Arthur was. He also understood how risky it was to stay here. Killing one Warlock wasn't worth it if they were going to be surrounded from all sides.

He signaled everyone for a retreat. 

The remaining four Warlocks stepped back and started running. 

"Running?" Uzuki asked, sensing the footsteps. 

He wiped the blood from his knuckles and opened his eyes as he started running after the sound of footsteps. 

He couldn't follow them for long as he soon lost them. They were too fast to run away. 

He stopped after losing their track. "Cowards."

Arthur appeared beside him. "Did you really have to come? You scared them. If you hadn't come, I would've killed the rest of them as well."

"We shouldn't be overconfident. Don't fight them alone. You have no idea about their skills. You just came here, after all. Still, I didn't even expect them to notice me so fast. Now that they ran, it's going to be really hard to find them."

"We wouldn't have to worry about finding them if you hadn't arrived. I would've taken care of all of them. Anyway, I don't think it's that hard to find them."

"What do you mean?" 

"I mean, I didn't go to find them. They came to kill me instead. If I'm not wrong, they're trying to take us off one by one. They'll come to us. We don't need to go to them."

"You mean they were assassinating everyone after entering the city. They must've killed quite a lot before reaching here."

"Kellian, they ran away. You don't need to come here now. But I have some bad news. It seems that they might've killed quite a lot of us."

"Can you check how many of us are still alive? Whoever is alive, tell them to stay alert and return to the base. I'm coming with Uzuki."

...

Lucifer was stuck in one problem, but before he could get out of it, his problem only got bigger. He escaped the grasp of Atlantians only to be swallowed by a black hole. 

Not a single person knew about his current situation. His friends didn't even know what had happened to him. They still thought that he was safe and soon going to return. 

....

In a distant place, another black hole appeared in the middle of nowhere. 

As far as the eyes could see, there was only darkness. There was no oxygen to breathe and no land to stand on. There were only stars as far as the eyes could see. 

The body of Lucifer came out of the black hole, floating in the endless space. All the vast amount of energy that was swallowed by the black hole also came out, assaulting the body of Lucifer. 

Still, in his senses, Lucifer used his winds to push him further away from the destructive energy while casting a barrier around him to protect himself as much as he could. 

Despite moving as fast as he could, he still couldn't avoid the destructive energy. It reached close enough to swallow him, only for him to teleport at the last moment, appearing a thousand meters away from the destructive energy. 

He still didn't stop moving back, as the destructive energy was moving fast, destroying everything in its path. 

Only his fingers had come in contact with the energy, and it actually disintegrated with just the lightest of touch. He didn't know what it could do, but if this energy could destroy his entire body just like his fingers, he didn't believe he could even recover. 

How could he recover if his entire body was torn to the smallest of atoms? 

He did everything he could to protect his body from that chaotic energy that not only contained the essence of his lightning but also some of his decay. 

Finally, after tens of teleportations, he could relax. The destructive energy had stopped moving further, and it started disappearing. 

Lucifer sighed a breath of relief as he started looking around. 

He could see multiple stars in the distance but no planet that seemed like Earth. 

"I am floating in space? How did I even get here? The Time core again? Or something else?"

He tried to find a sane logic as to how he ended up here, soon noticing the black hole in the distance. 

"That thing! That brought me here! It should also be able to send me back!" 

He started flying towards the black hole, avoiding the remnant specks of the destructive energy that hadn't fully disappeared. 

He flew as fast as he could, teleporting as many times as he possibly could and as far as he could, intending to read the black hole which had started getting smaller.

"No! Don't close!" He roared, putting his entire strength, not to miss the portal. He didn't even know if he could get back home if the Portal closed. 

By the time he reached the portal, the portal was only a few millimeters wide.. He extended his hand towards the portal at the last second.
