"Wow, that's impressive! But my friend, don't underestimate my immortality!"
"Even if I am shattered to pieces, the sword will never perish! The broken blade is melted in the furnace and reforged, becoming a new sword and gaining new life. How could such flames destroy me!"
Salbatre Tony once again invoked the power of the Word of Power, unleashing the full force of 'Steel Protection'.
The runes surrounding him increased by hundreds, each one gleaming with a crimson light.
Salbatre Tony's clothes melted, and his body turned a deep red, as if branded by a hot iron, but he remained unharmed.
The ground around Salbatre Tony was blackened by the fire, and the exposed steel bars of the building were melting.
Salbatre Tony, his body ablaze with flames, shouted excitedly at Lu Li:
"My friends! Let's have our final battle!!!"
Lu Li waved his hand and dispelled the flames on Salbatre Tony.
It also released the [Godhood of Flame] form.
Salbatre Tony was taken aback: "What's wrong, friend? We haven't even decided who's the winner yet! You don't think that flame could kill me, do you?"
Lu Li shook his head: "First of all, we are not friends. Secondly, it would indeed be a bit difficult to kill you with just that flame."
"Then why did you..."
"I'm getting a little tired of this, so I'm going to use my true power against you..."
"Oh?! Real power?! Wasn't what you just used your true power? What is true power?!"
Salbatre Tony looked on with curiosity and excitement.
Lu Li lightly touched the ground with his toes, and his body slowly flew into the air.
Then Lu Li brought his right index and middle fingers together.
Upon seeing Lu Li's pose, Erica's expression changed drastically. Others might not know, but she certainly did—this was Lu Li's signature move.
"Lu Li! No! Don't use that move! That move will reduce the entire city to ashes!!!"
However, it seems that the sound could not reach the battlefield because of the distance.
The others were somewhat incredulous upon hearing this, though they did believe that a god-slayer could destroy a city.
There have been instances in the past where battles between god-slayers and gods destroyed a city.
However, those were all gradual battles; they had never heard of anyone destroying a city with a single move. But soon they changed their minds.
Buzz—!
Eighteen crimson magic circles lit up above Lu Li's fingertips.
A wisp of flame was born in the center of the magic circle.
Then, the flame began to expand rapidly, growing to the size of a ping-pong ball in the blink of an eye.
call-----!
Although the fireball was not large, even those who were 3.8 kilometers away from the center of the battlefield felt a terrifying heat.
As the fireball grew larger, the heat became increasingly terrifying, and even those at such a distance found it difficult to withstand.
"not good!"
Andrei's expression changed drastically. He wasn't worried even when Lu Li used the Sunfire before, but now it was truly going to be fatal.
Moreover, it was the Sword King, Salbatre Tony, who was closest to Lu Li.
At this moment, Salbatre Tony was covered in sweat, staring in disbelief at the fireball above Lu Li's finger.
That fireball, resembling liquid magma, was formed by concentrating and compressing flames to create a near-solid state.
No, that wasn't a fireball at all; that was the sun, the real sun.
Chapter 148 I Admit Defeat
He possesses the powerful 'Steel Protection' ability, giving him unparalleled defensive capabilities.
But he could feel that even when he used 'Steel Protection' with all his might, it was still not working.
But the moment it touches the sun, it will be instantly vaporized.
And this freak is actually making the fireball bigger; is this guy a monster?
No! We absolutely cannot let this guy continue like this!!
Salbatre Tony threw away the newly formed magic sword, then immediately knelt down, raised his hands, and shouted:
"I surrender!!!"
"I surrender!!!"
"..."
Salbartley Tony's actions left almost everyone bewildered.
You are the King of Swords! How could you do such a thing?
"Aren't you going to fight?"
Salbatre Tony quickly waved his hand: "No more fighting, no more fighting."
Only a fool would keep fighting.
He may be a bit silly, but he's not really stupid.
Fighting against an evenly matched opponent of 03, that's called fighting.
Fighting a monster like Lu Li is just asking for trouble, no, it's asking for death.
Although he claimed to be immortal, he wasn't truly immortal; he had just been nearly killed by Lu Li.
If that flame had continued burning for a little longer, he might have lost the rest of his life.
If he were to be hit by Lu Li's sun again, he would be completely finished here today.
The ability of disobedient gods and some god-killers to be resurrected refers to the situation where they still have a physical body.
If the physical body were to turn to ashes, then one would definitely be dead.
He was still young, and as a king, he had a long life ahead of him to enjoy, so naturally he didn't want to die here.
Lu Li dissipated the magic in his hand.
His body slowly descended.
Seeing that Lu Li had deactivated the dangerous object, Salbatre Tony breathed a sigh of relief and stood up with a grin.
"My dear friend! What kind of power was that you just used? How could it be so terrifying? Just seeing it made me feel like I was going to be burned alive."
"..."
Lu Li thought that this guy was not only a bit silly, but also a bit shameless. He had called him a friend before, but now he was a close friend. He couldn't be bothered to pay attention to it.
"That's not power, that's magic."
"Magic? Can magic really be that powerful?!"
Salbarth Tony looked surprised.
He has a high talent for swordsmanship, but his talent for magic is zero, and his physique means that he cannot store magical power in his body.
Becoming a god-slayer was an unbelievable coincidence.
He was possessed by the spirit Saint George and fought against different gods.
Finally, St. George's spirit was killed by the god-king Nuada, and after Tony regained his self-awareness, he defeated Nuada with his sword and usurped his power.
He became a god-slayer.
After becoming a god-slayer, he discovered that the magic he couldn't learn before was only so-so in terms of power and had no effect on him at all.
"It depends on the person. I'm good at using magic, but you're not."
"..."
That's true. He's not exactly powerful; he can't even use magic. But could you please not be so blunt?
"But my dear friend! Your strength is truly astounding, even more so than that woman's."
"That woman?"
"It's that Luo Hao from Jiangnan."
"Luo Hao of Jiangnan... I'd like to meet him sometime."
Lu Li remembered that Erica seemed to have once said that she was the god-slayer of China in this world.
To be honest, he still felt a bit strange about the Chinese world in the anime world. He wanted to go, but he was also a little hesitant.
We're clearly from different worlds. Let it be. If I have the chance, I'll go; if not, then so be it.
He is satisfied with his current life; after all, it's not the real China, so whether he goes or not doesn't really matter.
Then Salbartley Tony started asking Lu Li all sorts of questions, like a curious child.
This was the first time he had ever lost so badly. Although he looked fine on the outside, he was already half dead. Even though he was a god-slayer, it would take him a long time to recover.
A short while later, Erica and the others all arrived.
"Tony? How are you?"
Andrei asked Salbatre Toni.
Salbatre Tony waved his hand and said, "It's nothing, it's nothing, I just lost half my life."
Andrei, who knew Tony well, immediately knew that Tony was indeed seriously injured, otherwise he wouldn't have said such a thing.
Andrei turned his gaze to Lu Li, bowed, and said, "Thank you for your mercy, Lord Lu Li."
He could also see at this moment that although this Seventh Demon King had only recently become a Demon King.
But this seventh demon king is definitely the strongest demon king.
From the very beginning, he easily suppressed Tony, which can be described as a complete and utter domination.
Especially the power that was finally revealed; even without it being unleashed, he could feel how terrifying the magic's power was.
"It's nothing, I was just trying to scare him a little. He was already injured but he still kept pestering me. Does he really think he's immortal?"
This duel was originally intended as a friendly spar, and he would even spare the "King of Swords" out of respect for Pandora.
"Thank you so much! I will discipline him properly from now on!"
Upon hearing this, Andrei felt even more grateful to Lu Li. No wonder Lu Li had just extinguished the flames; he had discovered that Tony was seriously injured.
"Hey! Andrei! How dare you speak like that? I am the king! The king!"
Salbatre Toni was very dissatisfied with Andrei's remarks. He was a king, and it would be very embarrassing for him to say such things in public.
"Lord Lu Li, please forgive my poor hospitality. I will take Tony away now and will not disturb you any longer."
Tony is injured, so it's best for him to rest and recover as soon as possible.
Lu Li nodded, and Andrei immediately pulled the Sword King away.
The Sword King called out reluctantly, "My dearest friend! I had a great time this time. Let's fight again next time!"
Lu Li ignored it. Although fighting the Sword King was quite enjoyable, once was enough.
He'd rather spend that time fighting with Erica in bed than fighting with a man.
Chapter 149 That's Love
“Lu Li, this is my uncle, Paul Brantley, who is also the commander of the Magic Society, the Copper Black Cross.”
"Your Majesty, it is an honor to meet you."
Paul Brantley bowed and then knelt on one knee.
"Lord Lu Li, I, Paul Brantelli, humbly request that the Magic Society, the Copper Black Cross, be added to your ranks!"
Upon hearing the other person's words, Lu Li looked at Erica.
Erica seemed to understand the meaning in Lu Li's eyes and explained, "Lord Salbatre Tony is the leader of the Southern European Magic Society Alliance, but we, the Copper Black Cross, have not yet declared our allegiance to Lord Salbatre Tony."
