At the beginning, I summoned Li Jing, who is very cold, and I will fight against Hawkeye!

Stinx and Loki disappeared into the broken space crack, and the atmosphere on the battlefield suddenly relaxed.

But the air was still filled with a strong smell of blood and lingering murderous intent.

Tren slowly put the black knife back into the scabbard. The moment the scabbard closed, the black particles on the ground also dissipated, as if they had never existed.

Thor landed lightly beside him, the black mist on his fingertips gradually dissipated, her smile was still sweet, but there was a hint of coldness in her eyes.

"Captain, they escaped quite quickly." Thor curled his lips with a hint of disdain in his tone.

Teren did not respond, but just raised his head slightly and scanned the battlefield.

All the giant warriors controlled by the bandaged woman have fallen down, their bodies lying on the ground in all directions, and their blood has dyed the entire land red.

Scar stood not far away, the huge axe in his hand still dripping with blood. There was a hint of fatigue in his eyes, but more of determination.

"It's over," Teren whispered, no emotion in his voice.

Scar nodded, walked to Teren's side, and said in a deep voice: "What should we do next? Stinkys and Loki have escaped, they will definitely not give up."

Tren was silent for a moment, looking toward the distant horizon.

The sky was still gloomy and covered with dark clouds, as if a storm would come at any time. His eyes were deep and calm, as if everything was under his control.

"They won't be able to escape for long." Teren's voice was low and firm. "Loki's power has been exhausted.

Although Stinkys has some tricks up his sleeve, he doesn't dare to confront us head-on again.

Then they will hide and bide their time.”

"Then should we press on to win?" Thor blinked, with a hint of excitement in his tone.

Teren shook his head and said calmly, "No need. If they escape, it will be beneficial to us.

Neither Stinx nor Loki will give in easily. They will definitely find a way to fight back. All we have to do is wait."

"Wait?" Scar frowned, seeming a little puzzled.

Teren's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a faint smile: "Wait for them to reveal their own flaws.

Stinkys has big ambitions, and he won't be content to stay in the dark forever.

And Loki...his hatred and anger will make him lose his mind.

We just have to be patient and they will come to us.”

Thor and Scar looked at each other and seemed to understand what Tren meant.

Thor smiled softly and patted Scar on the shoulder: "Captain is right, we don't need to rush.

Anyway, they will fall into the trap sooner or later."

Scar nodded. Although he was still a little uneasy, he never doubted Tren's judgment.

Teren's calmness and wisdom have always been the most powerful weapons of their adventure group.

"Okay, clean up the battlefield and prepare to leave." Tren waved his hand, signaling everyone to move.

Thor and Scar immediately began to command the remaining team members to clean up the battlefield.

Although the battle was over, the debris and corpses on the battlefield still needed to be dealt with.

Tren stood there, his eyes still looking into the distance, as if he was thinking about something.

Just then, a slight sound of footsteps suddenly came from the distance.

Teren's ears moved slightly and he immediately noticed something unusual.

He turned slowly, his eyes fixed on a ruin in the distance.

"Who's there?" Tren's voice was cold and low, with a hint of unquestionable majesty.

The footsteps behind the ruins were getting closer and closer, and the thin girl slowly walked out.

There was a hint of fear and uneasiness on her face, and she held a dagger tightly in her hand, but her eyes revealed a strange determination.

"I... I'm not an enemy." The girl's voice trembled, as if she was trying hard to hide something.

Teren's eyes swept over her coldly, without a trace of fluctuation.

His fingers rested lightly on the hilt of the knife, and with a little force from his fingertips, the scabbard made a slight buzzing sound.

"Who are you?" Tren's voice was low and cold, as if it came from the abyss.

The girl lowered her head and said weakly: “My name is Irene, and I am the child of a pirate imprisoned in the underworld.

I...I came to ask for your help."

Her tone sounded pitiful, as if she was really just a helpless villager.

However, Teren's eyes did not waver at all. His gaze penetrated the girl's appearance and reached the depths of her soul.

"Help?" Teren's voice was still cold. "Are you sure you are here to ask us for help?"

The girl's body trembled slightly, as if she realized something.

Her fingers tightly grasped the dagger, her knuckles turned white, and there was an imperceptible tremor in her voice: “Yes... yes.

I heard that you are the most powerful adventuring group, so... I would like to invite you."

Tren didn't answer, but took a slow step forward.

His movements were light, but every step seemed to step on the girl's heart, making her step back involuntarily.

"Captain, she looks quite pitiful. How about we..." Thor's voice came from the side with a hint of hesitation.

Teren ignored Thor and continued to stare at the girl with a dagger-like gaze: "Your acting is good, but unfortunately... it's not perfect yet."

The girl's face turned pale instantly and a trace of panic flashed in her eyes, but was quickly suppressed.

She forced a smile, her voice trembling: "I...I don't understand what you are talking about."

"Don't understand?" Tren's voice was still cold. He flicked his fingers lightly and the scabbard slid open an inch.

At this moment, the girl's body suddenly stiffened, a strange red light flashed in her eyes, and the corners of her mouth rose slightly, revealing a twisted smile.

"As expected of you, you're Teren. I can't hide it from you." The girl's voice suddenly became hoarse and low, completely unlike the weak villager just now.

Tren's eyes remained calm. He flicked his fingers lightly, and the scabbard slid open completely. The black blade emitted a cold light.

"Loki's 'deception'... was indeed a backup plan you left behind." Teren's voice was low and cold, as if he was sentencing him to death.

The girl's body began to twist and countless black lines appeared under her skin, as if something was trying to break out of her body.

Her voice became sharp and harsh: “Do you think you can see through everything? Teren, you are too confident!

As long as I get close to you, even for a moment, your consciousness will be tampered with! You can't escape at all! I will always, always keep an eye on you!"

Tren did not answer, but slowly raised the black knife in his hand.

Countless fine runes appeared on the blade, emitting a cold light.

"You are wrong." Teren's voice was low and firm. "I never give the enemy any chance."

Before he finished speaking, Teren's figure disappeared instantly.

The next moment, he appeared behind the girl, and the black knife drew a cold arc and slashed straight towards her neck.

The girl's pupils suddenly contracted. She wanted to dodge, but her body seemed to be restrained by some force and she couldn't move.

There was a flash of despair in her eyes, and her voice was sharp and shrill: "No——!"

The black knife slashed across, and the girl's body was instantly cut in half.

However, her body did not bleed, but turned into countless black smoke and dissipated in the air.

"It's a 'deception' indeed." Teren looked coldly at the dissipating black smoke, and slowly put the black knife in his hand back into the scabbard.

Thor and Scar stood aside, watching all this in amazement.

There was a hint of fear in Thor's voice: "Captain, what just happened was..."

"It was a trap left by Loki." Tren's voice remained calm. "He used 'deception' to create an illusion, trying to get close to me through this girl and tamper with my consciousness."

"This is the threat of that fruit!" Scar's face became solemn: "Fortunately, Captain Tren made preparations, otherwise..."

Tren did not answer, but turned and looked at the distant horizon, his eyes deep and cold.

"Loki... you really won't give up easily." Teren's voice was low and firm, "But your tricks won't work on me."

Thor walked up to Teren and asked softly, "Captain, what should we do next?"

Teren was silent for a moment, then said calmly: "Keep moving forward. Loki and Stinx won't give up, we must be prepared."

Scar nodded and tightened his grip on the axe. Although everything was caused by this man,

But, "Now, following you all the time is the only way out for the giant."
