Chapter 1160 Didn’t Do A Proper Research
"How did you do it?" The girl asked a bit hysterical.
She had been monitoring Grey's movement since Grey stepped into the first room, yet she never sensed it when he altered the array.
"While we were fighting. I already knew you would sense it if you weren't distracted, so I walked in here as if I was oblivious to it." Grey chuckled, "Since you're an assassin then you should be aware of my profile, right?"
The girl looked at him, unable to speak. She did read about his profile, but this array was an ancient array she stumbled upon while on a mission. Even her seniors in the Elemental Sovereign Plane were baffled by the array, yet Grey not only managed to sense it quickly, but he could also alter it to his advantage in such a short time.
"Impossible! Where did you get the array? Speak!" She didn't believe Grey didn't know of the array.
Grey chuckled but didn't say anything. He only managed to be aware of the array thanks to the inheritance he got from this place. Although there were not too many arrays in the inheritance, there were a few, and luckily, this one was part of it. If not for that, he would've been stumped.
Of all the arrays he had seen, this was the most complex one, even the array he had to get through to collect the inheritance wasn't as complex as this one. Even if he might have been able to break the array on his own, it would've taken him at least an hour, that was enough time for the girl to complete her mission.
He couldn't help but thank the stars he was greedy and took the inheritance from the young lady from the Heavenly Fate Faction.
Ellis, Klaus, and Reynolds were the trio who came to his aid. They were the ones closest to him, so they rushed over when they received his distress signal. Grey couldn't blatantly open this area and make others hear the sound of the battle, so he had to be very subtle with it.
"Since my friends are here, it's time to end this." Grey attacked the moment he finished speaking. He wasn't in the mood to continue speaking with the girl, who knew if she was planning something else and only wanted to delay them?
Ellis and Klaus attacked together.
Reynolds summoned his Elemental Warrior and merged with it, increasing his strength to the Third stage of the Elemental Venerable Plane before attacking.
The girl tried to fight them off, but with the group fighting together, she was having a difficult time. One has to know that each of them were geniuses when it came to fighting in their own rights, fighting together against a single opponent was just overkill.
The girl managed to send Klaus flying, but Ellis attacked at the same time, hitting her from behind. She turned to block that attack, but a large blade made from pale blue flames struck down from above.
She dodged the blade, blocking Ellis' attack as well, but she was forced to take on Reynolds' lightning spear that pierced through her shoulder thanks to her quick reaction.
Reynolds aimed for her heart, but she was able to dodge it.
Grey attacked once again, striking with a lightning bolt, aiming for the head of the girl. Reynolds attacked too, aiming for her legs. Ellis was less vicious but more cunning. His attack blocked any thought of escape the girl had. There was no way she could dodge the attack of both Grey and Reynolds and face his.
Of the four, Ellis was the strongest, although Grey had the highest attack power, that was if the fusion orb is brought into the picture. Without the fusion orb, his next thing was his physical strength, but it was a tad below Ellis' attack.
While the girl was thinking of what to do. She saw a small flash, before she could even react, a thin needle had pierced the injury on her shoulder.
She felt a frightening cold spread across her entire body and for a quarter of a second, she froze.
Klaus' ice ability was almost second to none, the technique Grey gave to him made him even more deadly.
Flames rose in the body of the girl, covering her in a dome.
Grey and Reynolds' attack hit the fire dome and it fell apart.
The girl appeared before them once again, she was shivering slightly, it was clear she hasn't been able to deal with the ice in her body.
"Little girl, don't fight it, it will only get worse." Klaus snickered then looked at Grey in disdain, as if saying, 'You're being bullied by such a small girl.'
Grey could care less about Klaus' look, he attacked right away.
"She's dangerous, don't give her any chance to react."
Klaus and Reynolds attacked simultaneously, this was the first time they were fighting someone and Grey was actively telling them the person is dangerous. They've seen how powerful she was, but they didn't know if she was as dangerous as Grey was making her seem to be.
Ellis was making sure it was impossible for the girl to leave that area, keeping her contained.
Seeing Klaus' ice ability, he was a bit stunned. He was also a Water Elementalist and even had a higher cultivation stage than Klaus, but he wasn't confident in being able to use his ice ability to cause too much of a problem for the girl.
'They are all geniuses.' He sighed internally.
There was nothing else to say, each of Grey's friends were freakish people.
He used his domain to create a large water dome, keeping everyone inside.
Void was watching the battle from the side, still refusing to step in. With four people, there was no need for him to fight too, given his usual personality, he opted to watch.
The girl fought hard against Grey, Reynolds, and Klaus, but she was not getting the upper hand. In fact, she was completely overwhelmed.
The reason it was this difficult for her was due to Ellis' devious methods. Had he joined in on the battle, she would've gotten the opportunity to at least give the trio some space, but now, whenever she tried to move out of their attack range, she would be faced with a powerful attack from Ellis, and while defending it, Grey, Klaus, and Reynolds would evilly attack her from behind, making her injuries grow.
Boom!
Grey's attack hit her back and sent her flying, while she was still in the air, an ice hammer struck her towards the ground, the ice hammer was covered in lightning, a combined attack from Klaus and Reynolds.
Bang!
She slammed into the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood. Her body was riddled with injuries at this time, her eyes red.
"Aren't you people ashamed?! Attacking a small girl!" She couldn't help but scream.
"We are a bunch of shameless guys, using our superior numbers to beat you up, what can you do about it?" Klaus said shamelessly.
Grey looked at this side, trying to remove himself from what Klaus said.
"What are you doing? Weren't you the one who called us over? You even wanted everyone to come." Klaus looked at Grey in contempt.
Grey shrugged, he looked at the girl with an indifferent eye, "I don't allow people who want to kill me to live. Although it seems cruel, it's the reality of things. Since you want to kill me, then you should be prepared to die too."
The girl looked at Grey with her red eyes, to be honest, she didn't want to die, she wasn't prepared for that yet.
"I'm the one who kills people, not the other way around." She muttered.
"Sorry sweetheart, but life doesn't always go as we plan it." Klaus attacked, even before Grey did.
The girl was already almost unable to put up any form of defense against them.
Just as Klaus' attack was about to hit her, her figure blinked and she vanished.
"F*ck! She said she had five elements." Grey exclaimed.
The girl was using only three elements while fighting with him, only after the others came did she add the fire element to it. He never thought the last element was the space element.
They suddenly heard a scream from the void and the girl appeared once again, spitting out more blood. Her left arm and leg was completely gone and blood were dripping from them.
"Good job, Void." Grey said as Void came out from the same spatial tunnel the girl came out from.
Void, who hadn't made a move all this while was the one who reacted first, not only stopping the girl from leaving, but fatally injuring her as well.
The girl looked at the small black cat in shock.
"If you had done your research, you would've known I have a very powerful cat with me, a Space Elementalist cat. Your lack of research is the cause of your death." Grey said calmly.
