Dark Magus Returns

Chapter 698  The Power Of A System

Lin and Lulu were two Pagna warriors who were indistinguishable from each other; it was clear they were twins, and each of them were as strong as the other. This wasn't good news for the opponents they would be going against.

Anna had picked up a sword from one of the dead on the ground and was now using it to fend off against one of the Pagna warriors. She was using mainly techniques from the Light Faction.

"Half Moon Block, Saber Strike, the Crescent Falls!" Anna said to herself with each move.

Her attacker was using a metal fan as her weapon, swinging it fast and fiercely. Lulu would open and close the fan, opening it up when using it more defensively to block attacks and closing it to use it more like a sword.

The two were continuously clashing, and from the look on Lulu's face, Anna could tell she was getting annoyed.

"What's wrong?" Anna replied back. "Is everything you're doing not working? Well, that's a shame, right?"

Another strike came forward, and with a half-moon block, Anna swung and hit the fan again. Once in a while, she would attack, but Lulu could tell that something felt off about the attacks, almost as if they weren't fully committed.

She blocked another strike and then heard a scream coming from her side.

"That kid is useless," Anna said. "He is not deserving of the system. Why would it be handed to someone like him?"

While Anna was going up against Lulu, Liam was going up against Lin. Unlike Anna, who was able to block strikes and have an even fight, the same couldn't be said for Liam. He was using the skills recommended by the system, but it wasn't enough in their fight. As he blocked certain attacks, the Qi from Lin's strikes would overpower Liam.

In the end, his arm had been knocked away, along with one of his swords skidding across the ground. Right then, he went to block another strike of his own accord but was too slow, and the metal fan had struck right into his thigh.

Quickly, Lin pulled the fan out and then spread it, flicking the blood onto the floor.

"You might have done well against the Light Faction student, but that's all they are—students. I can tell you're still in the initial stage. No matter what moves you can copy, you won't be able to beat me with just that alone." Lin charged forward; she wanted to finish the fight quickly.

Seeing this, Liam reached out his hand and used the special effect to draw both of his weapons in. It reached his hand, but it was too slow. Lin had already moved her fan, aiming to strike and bash his head in.

Just before it reached, a sword was thrown and struck the fan. It was a fierce throw that caused Lin's entire arm to jerk back and miss the target completely.

When Liam looked at who had thrown the sword, he could see Anna had allowed the fan to cut through her arm. It had stopped around an inch in, having cut through her clothing, and blood was dripping down her forearm. While in her other hand, there was no longer a sword.

"I need answers from you, so stop messing around and losing your fight. You only have one person to deal with," Anna shouted.

After saying those words, a red light could be seen underneath her clothing. She quickly pushed through the metal fan and then started to strike at Lulu.

She delivered powerful punches at fast speeds, yet there were no Qi strikes, only the sound of heavy fists hitting the fan each time a strike was blocked.

Lulu eventually became frustrated and went to strike with her fan again, but in the middle of her strike as her arm was raised up, Anna was already on the inside. She hit her wrist, avoiding the fan completely, and with another fist, struck her straight in the stomach.

A heavy hit caused Lulu to be knocked off her feet and skid across the ground.

"The system, although clever, is still ultimately directed by you," Anna said. "It's something that is constantly learning. If you're going up against an opponent you have never faced before, then do what you can to learn everything your opponent can do. Learn their skill set and moves, and then the system can adjust to fight back even better than before."

"You are a warrior with Qi and the system, and it seems you're just using your Qi to fight, and not the powers of the system."

Liam was wondering what she meant by that. It was clear this woman was the same as him, but the power of the system with no Qi? If Anna was using no Qi, how did she just send a middle-stage warrior flying like that?

Thankfully, Lin, who was going up against Liam, was worried about her sister and jumped to her side. Although the attack was a clean hit, it wasn't that bad.

"She's telling the truth," Lulu said as she took a deep breath. "There was no Qi in that strike, which is why my internals are fine. This is like fighting against a human beast with strong powers. I don't know how she's so strong with no Qi."

Anna moved over toward Liam at this point as well.

"You should know right; a lot of your body, it's no longer human," Anna explained. "Just look at your leg."

The wound on Liam's leg had healed; it wasn't going to affect him like before, and it was the same as Anna's arm—it had healed completely as well.

The healing speed was almost just as fast as the Hybrids, only they weren't hybrids; something else was going on in their bodies. Upstodatee from n(0)/v𝒆/lbIn/.(co/m

"The main components of your body still exist," Anna continued to explain. "However, you and I are completely different."

"I am not from this world; therefore, I am not able to use Qi. Yet you, young man, are a person from the world of Pagna with the system.

"I don't know the effect that Qi will have on the nanobots in your body, but if it can strengthen me like this—"

Anna rolled up her arm and showed the red glow that was appearing on part of her body. It ran down several parts of her arm.

Seeing the glow, Liam remembered the man who was with him; he also had all these strange glowing points on him. Although he was also wearing a strange robotic flexible type of suit unlike Anna.

"Maybe with your Qi, you have the potential to grow even stronger than me... but I predict that is far in the future."

Now that the two twins were okay, both of them looked ready to attack, and although Liam was interested in learning more, it hadn't helped him.

"Stronger in the future is not stronger now. Even if I analyze all of their movements, I'm just not strong enough to block their Qi," Liam said.

"I didn't want to do this, but we'll just have to work together." Anna placed her hand on Liam's shoulder, and that's when he could see a message appear.
