Chapter 1827


    ?


    It was Mobius, who had invited Frank here, and he was pping as he approached Frank.


    "Beautiful... beautiful," he said, his ent suddenly free of stammer and smooth as if he were a Draconian.


    "Hmph."


    Frank snorted coolly. "And here I thought you''d keep hiding. Can''t resist showing your face, huh?"


    "You''re right." Mobius sighed, shaking his head. "I thought you''d all fight each other to the death over the spiritron vein and the Celestial Dew and that


    I just had to watch in secret. I really didn''t expect you to see through my ploy as soon as you came in."


    Frank chuckled icily. "So? Did youe just to tter me?"


    "No, of course not."Belongs to (N)?vel/Drama.Org.


    Mobius shook his head, his smile turning sinister and his tone cool. "I would''ve imed the bounty on your head along with the spiritron vein and the Celestial Dew, but it seems that you''re a very careful person.


    "And in that case, I''ll just have to do it myself."


    Mobius then drew a rapier from his suit, brandishing it at Frank''s face as he snapped, "Words mean nothing. Either you or I will leave this ce alive!" "Hmph."


    Frank snorted, narrowing his eyes. "Trying to bait me into fighting with my pure vigor, so that the mite eggs would hatch quicker?"


    "Exactly." Mobius shrugged-it was his trick in the first ce, and lying about it was pointless.


    He had already studied enough on the intel gathered on Frank and saw that he would not win in a fair fight.


    Things were different now, however-with the waif balm swirling in the air, Mobius was sure that Frank had brocade mite eggs in his body too.


    As such, if Frank dared to fight him with his pure vigor, he would elerate the growth of the eggs inside him.


    The more intense Frank fought and the further he used pure vigor, the quicker the eggs would hatch, and the sooner he would be devoured.


    As such, all Mobius had to do in theory was to buy time, and Frank would be dead anyway.


    "Hahaha..."


    Despite Mobius'' confident look, however, Frank was chuckling and narrowing his eyes. "And what


    Vel


    makes you think that I''d need to use pure vigor against you?"


    "What..."


    Even before Mobius'' eyes widened in shock, Frank moved, disappearing and reappearing before him in an instant.


    "So fast!"


    There was a look of disbelief in Mobius'' eyes as he recovered from his surprise, while a ck sh shot past his face.


    "Eh?"


    The ck sh stopped Frank''s outstretched finger, but it dispersed soon after.


    However, it allowed Mobius to thrust


    ne


    his rapier forward with a battle


    launching over a dozen stet


    Frank''s position.


    "I got him... wait?!"


    Mobius was watching as he stabbed into Frank, only for Frank''s figure to blur and eventually disappear as Mobius watched. "An afterimage?!"


    Even as Mobius realized that, he felt a rush of wind behind him!
