Chapter 497: Could Not Take It Anymore

“Visiting relatives? Who are your relatives? Do they live nearby?”

The Dark Elf stopped Linus and looked at him up and down. The Dark Elf remained suspicious. He frowned and continued asking, “Your relatives live here too? Do they live on this street? What do they do? What are their names?”

Linus noticed that the Dark Elf was thorough with his questions so he decided to take a gamble. He bet that the Dark Elves who looked like hooligans knew little about their own neighborhood so, as long as he said that his relative was from the neighboring neighborhood, he should be able to pass the interrogation.

Linus said with a calm face, “I only visited Rebirth City once when I was young. I could only vaguely remember my relative’s house, which is two streets away from the entrance of this alley. I hope that you can be merciful. After I meet up with my relative, I will bring a gift to you as a gesture of appreciation!”

Linus was reasonable. His response was neither servile nor overbearing. He lied cleverly without leaving any suspicion behind.

The Dark Elf that stood in front of Linus sneered and said, “Your relative’s house is two streets away from the entrance of this alley? That is my house and I have never seen you since I was born! Why exactly are you doing here? Are you a spy sent by a foreign race?”

Linus immediately realized that things were not looking good for him. It was not a big deal that his lie had been exposed but if they suspected that he was a spy sent by a foreign race, then that would be a big problem.

At that moment, Linus was a Fire Elf so he could not pass any scrutiny by the Dark Elves. If his identity is exposed, it would attract the attention of all the Dark Elves. They would then attack him together.

Linus said to the Dark Elves in front of him in a deep voice, “Please, I really have important matters to attend to. After so many years, I really can’t remember the location of my relatives’ house. I hope that you can give me a clear indication of how I can enter this place!”

At the same time, he secretly put his right hand behind his back. He was prepared to take out a spear or a magic staff from his storage ring. He planned on defeating any Dark Elves that stood in his way.

After all, Linus had the strength of a level 40 creature and he was also the High Priest of Dark Yuan City so he was strong enough to deal with the group of hooligans.

After hearing Linus’s words, the Dark Elf, who was blocking his way, immediately sneered and said, “The city is too chaotic right now. We can only do our best to keep the peace. This alley has long been closed to outsiders. However, if you must come in, you have to leave some belongings for your brothers as payment for their hard work. After all, we also have to eat and live!”

After Linus heard what he said, his right hand relaxed because he realized that the Dark Elves in front of him were just taking the opportunity to rob him of some property. They were not real patrol squads. As long as they took enough money, they would not pay attention to his real identity.

“Okay, then I’ll leave you some money for your hard work. As a thank you for guarding this alley and protecting my relatives and family!”

As Linus spoke, he took out a large bag of coins from his storage ring and tossed it to the Dark Elf across from him.

As the High Priest of Dark Yuan City, Linus had brought almost half of Dark Yuan City’s wealth with him before he left the city. This was to ensure that he would be able to deal with the difficulties and obstacles along the way.

As long as he could solve the problems with money, then he would not have any problems!

If his problems could not be solved with money, then he would resort to force.

After the Dark Elf received the money pouch, he opened it and counted the coins inside. He was extremely happy. It seemed that Linus’s wealth had far exceeded his imagination!

The insatiable Dark Elf strode toward Linus and said greedily, “I didn’t expect you to be a fat sheep! To be able to take out so much money so easily can only mean that you must have something even more precious on you. Take out all the treasures you have with you and let us examine them!”

Linus’s heart was filled with both anger and helplessness. He had traveled to Rebirth City to complete the mission that Vincent had entrusted him with. He did not want to reveal his strength and identity before the investigation, thus, he could only try his best to suppress the anger in his heart and not let it explode so easily.

Linus had no choice but to take out another bag of coins from his storage ring. He handed it over to the Dark Elf.

Linus’s tone was filled with suppression as he asked, “This is all I have with me, can I go now?”

However, the Dark Elf who walked over did not even glance at the money bag in Linus’s hand. Instead, he raised his hand to grab his wrist, eyeing the storage ring on his finger greedily.

The Dark Elf sneered as he looked up at Linus and said confidently, “Storage ring? This thing is priceless! Only some high-ranking officials in the entire city can afford it! I want this thing!”

Although he was greedy, he was not a brainless Dark Elf. In the entire Rebirth City, those who wore storage rings were not ordinary elves!

However, as Linus was an outsider, it was not unusual for him to have one.

As Rebirth City was in chaos, rich individuals and nobles from other places would not travel to the city so easily. Only nobles or robbers outside the city would have the ability and qualifications to sneak into the city with storage rings to take advantage of the chaos.

Linus looked more like a poor noble who only wanted to spend money. He did not show the slightest bit of anger. Such individuals were the easiest to bully, and they often had treasures with them!

At the same time, this speculation further fueled the Dark Elf’s arrogance and greed!

However, Linus was not without temper. After seeing that the Dark Elf in front of him getting greedier and greedier, he could no longer suppress the anger in his heart!

Before Linus could speak, the Dark Elf saw the golden mask that Linus was hiding under his robe. He could not help but say excitedly, “So the real good stuff is on your face! I’ll take the mask too!”

As the Dark Elf said this, he quickly removed the mask from Linus’s face.

However, the moment he removed his mask, the Dark Elf froze on the spot. This was because under the golden mask was a disfigured face that retained the characteristics of a Fire Elf!

“You, you are not a Dark Elf! Who are you? What are you doing here?”

The Dark Elf held Linus’s wrist with his left hand and the golden mask with his right hand as he stuttered.

“I’ll tell you when you’re dead!”

Linus’s eyes were cold as he roared. He clenched his right fist and pushed the Dark Elf’s hand away from his wrist. The storage ring on his hand flashed and a long spear appeared in his hand.

The Dark Elf did not have the courage to resist. He immediately turned around and shouted at the others.

“Run!”

At the same time, he quickly slipped into a house.

When faced with danger, he chose to hide in the place that he was most familiar with. This was the natural instinct of every living creature. The Dark Elves were no exception!

However, how could Linus give those Dark Elves the slightest chance to escape? Before entering the Rebirth City, Linus had already made preparations in his heart.

After entering the city, he tried his best to conceal his identity. However, once exposed, he would have to kill anyone who knew his identity and silence them!

After all, Linus had the strength of a level 40 creature, and his strength far exceeded that of other elves of the same level. Although he did not know that all the apostles had been killed by Vincent, at the very least, he knew that all the apostles were still outside of Serene Spring City and Devil Flame City. It was impossible for them to rush back in a short period of time. In that case, he would hardly meet any opponents in Rebirth City.

Therefore, once he made his move, he had to deal with all the Dark Elves involved at lightning speed. Only then could he ensure that his mission would be completed smoothly!

Linus was extremely determined. From the moment he decided to make his move, he did not hesitate at all. He thrust the spear in his hand forward and pierced through the Dark Elf’s chest in an instant. At the same time, he lifted him high into the air.

The Dark Elf was already dead when he was lifted up. The golden mask in his hand slid down automatically and fell straight down from the sky.

Linus retracted his spear, raised his hand to catch the golden mask, and quickly put it on his face. He then raised his head to look at the other Dark Elves. He looked like a Grim Reaper who had climbed out of hell.

The other Dark Elves who saw their leader being killed on the spot were scared out of their wits. They were so scared that they had forgotten to run. They stood still on the spot, their legs trembling. Strange sounds could be heard from their throats. They did not even have the chance to beg for mercy.

“Noble Fire Elf King! Please forgive me for killing so many elves today. After all, if we want to save all the elves, we have to destroy some of the scum of the elves first!”

Linus carried a long spear on his back and chanted a prayer to the Fire Elf King. He then slowly raised the blood-stained spear in his hand and aimed it at the other Dark Elves.

At that moment, Vincent, who was far away in Serene Spring City, suddenly heard Linus’s prayer.

This was because the other party was not praying to him directly, but was instead praying to the Fire Elf King. This made Vincent particularly curious.

Thus, he entered a meditative state. As he meditated, he saw Linus brandishing his spear and killing several Dark Elves in front of an alley!

After peeking into Linus’s memories, Vincent finally understood the cause for it. He could only express his helplessness. After all, if Linus did not do this, the operation to save the elves would not go smoothly.

Those Dark Elves deserved to die!

However, Vincent did not keep quiet. Instead, he conveyed a message to Linus.

“All the apostles are dead. Once we find evidence of the demons’ crimes, rush over to Serene Spring City immediately!”
