The situation was completely beyond "my" expectations. Perhaps he possessed some quality destined for success, or perhaps luck once again favored Ma En. In the end, he killed Diel without paying any terrible price.

Even "I" must admit that Ma En is indeed somewhat extraordinary. It seems that there are some invisible and intangible things secretly helping him. Perhaps this is fate.

Although believing in fate is a ridiculous act, there are indeed certain fates in the world that "we" live in, and these fates are often spread by Ma En and his kind.

Now it seems that some fate aggregations are very fond of Ma En. In fact, it is easy to imagine that the madman who fantasizes about saving the world must like Ma En very much, so he is destined to be sheltered by her power.

However, as the story progresses, his connection with the world-saving madman will become weaker and weaker. After all, no matter what, this is "my" territory, not to mention that "I" also borrowed Ma En's room.

Even she can't go too deep.

And she is not the only one who can create fate.

Back to the story, our protagonist Ma En walked to the body of the person he killed...

Ma En landed lightly in front of Diel's corpse, looking at the helmeted woman standing at the bottom of the canyon and the minced meat scattered around her feet.

The figure bathed in flesh and blood was like a bloodless and cold demon god, exuding a terrifying and cruel aura.

In front of her, Diel had no power to fight back.

Although it seemed like the helmeted woman made many movements, in reality, Diel only lasted a few seconds from the attack to his death.

This move was too fast. If Diel didn't have the ability to recover, requiring them to attack several times in a row by turning, the battle would have ended in the blink of an eye.

This simple and crude combination was stronger than Ma En imagined. No one could unleash such terrifying power without the other. The helmeted woman was strong, but lacked mobility and speed.

Theoretically, Ma En could accelerate anything to such a terrifying degree, but the problem was that he couldn't find materials with such strength to use for attacking.

Even if ordinary solid objects could be accelerated to that degree, they would be crushed first when they hit their enemies, losing their destructive power in the process.

You must know that their target is a terrifying creature with dragon scales all over its body.

The pungent smell of flesh and blood drilled into Ma En's nostrils, causing him to frown slightly, but his tone of inquiry remained habitually gentle:

"Is Diel dead?"

"Ah, yes." The cold mask seemed to reflect the warm sunlight falling through the branches the moment the sound came out, and the cruel aura instantly dissipated. "It would have been dangerous if he had been given more time."

Their move was strongest when they ambushed, because they didn't give their opponents any time to react or prepare in advance, which is why they were able to kill Diel smoothly.

If he had brought a few more bottles of elixirs, he might have really found a way to deal with this move.

Of course, he couldn't have had more elixirs. Five bottles was already a somewhat "unreasonable" number.

Ma En nodded slightly, then asked with concern:

"Are you feeling unwell anywhere?"

The power of this combination exceeded his imagination, and the duration was a few seconds longer than they had initially expected, so he was also a little worried about whether it would cause any harm to the helmeted woman.

But she shook her head easily, saying with a bit of a smile:

"Don't worry, my body is very strong, I can still withstand this much power. However, if we want to use this move to deal with the dragon, we still need to make more preparations. After all, Diel's physical strength is far lower than that of that magical legendary creature."

As she spoke, she casually patted the pieces of minced meat on her body, as if she was patting off dust from her clothes.

Then, she continued confidently:

"But this combination is very successful in actual combat. It seems that we are really suitable to work together. If we study it more carefully, we may be able to defeat many strong people we couldn't defeat before."

Ma En also agreed with her view, but he did not echo it:

"The important thing is to find a way to deal with the dragon."

As they spoke, the figures of Selie, You Yue, and Yan also appeared around them.

You Yue's face was full of surprise, as if she hadn't expected Ma En and the helmeted woman to kill Diel, who was chasing them, so easily, or as if she hadn't expected them to be willing to do so.

Selie's eyes were slightly calm, but she couldn't hide the surprise in them. Even though she had a strange trust in the suddenly appearing Ma En, the development of the situation exceeded her expectations.

"You really did it?" You Yue asked truthfully without hiding anything.

The helmeted woman shrugged confidently:

"We have completed what we promised. You shouldn't have any thoughts of going back on your word, right?"

You Yue didn't have such thoughts. She didn't think it was a wise decision to go back on her word at this time, but she glanced at Selie, waiting for her to make a decision.

Selie had already made a decision:

"Of course, we will help you find the dragon."

Even if she didn't consider that inexplicable feeling, she felt that she should cooperate with Ma En and the others. After all, they had now become allies with a common enemy, and the ogre expert might not let it go.

So, in theory, cooperating with them was the best choice. If she could have thought of a few reasons to escape alone before seeing this battle, then she no longer had those reasons now.

Because this battle had proved that as long as they followed them, they really didn't need to worry about the ogre expert anymore, because Ma En and the helmeted woman seemed to be fully capable of dealing with him.

Just as the few of them had made plans to travel together, they didn't notice Yan in the corner at this moment.

The young man's face didn't reveal much emotion at this time, but his heart was struggling frantically like a torrent. Seeing that they didn't pay attention to him, intense fear also blocked his chest.

Yes, the few of them killed Diel and could just leave.

But what about him? Although he called himself a genius mage, he didn't think he could easily get rid of the revenge of those terrifying mercenaries, and they would definitely come to him.

If he couldn't tell them Ma En's whereabouts, he would only suffer the most terrible torture.

Life is worse than death.

To be honest, at this moment, this fear had overwhelmed the young man's mind, causing a slight resentment towards Ma En and the others to slowly arise in the depths of his heart, and also laying the groundwork for future changes.

The arrogant young man knew very well how to survive at this moment. He had to put down his dignity and beg the few of them for help. Unlike the last request, this time the situation was truly out of his control.

Just like "we" once said, the young man grew up in a terrible environment. Hidden beneath his arrogance was a kind of sensitive and fragile inferiority complex. In his eyes at this moment, the few people's indifference to him seemed to carry a kind of almost absurd contempt.

Therefore, when he spoke, he felt a kind of inexplicable sense of shame:

"Everyone, can you take me with you? Maybe I can help you with something? Of course, I don't need any reward, as long as you can continue to provide me with protection."

Ma En showed him a gentle smile and said:

"Of course, we would take you even if you didn't say so. After all, we dragged you into this mess, and the matter of reward is actually..."

No, Ma En, who had never met many people in his life, did not have the ability to give such a comprehensive answer.

These were the words that the young man truly heard.

Yan looked at Ma En, who glanced at him coldly, seeming unwilling, but ultimately revealed a bit of pity for him after careful consideration:

"Okay, we can take you, but you have to be careful not to cause trouble."

"Okay," the young man said humiliatingly.
