Level Up in Earth Evolution

Chapter 182: "It must be Inquisitor Lucius!"

"Brother, what happened? Why did it take so much time?" Li Xin inquired with a frown, as no one was able to see outside because Li Wei blocked their views using the function of the villa.

Of course, Irene was able to see everything, but she also looked at him with a frown, waiting for an explanation as to why he became so heavy-handed.

They were nobles, and if he wanted to buy land, he needed to have a good impression of them. If not, it would be hard for him to make a purchase without revealing all his strength.

Not to mention, there were consequences if he did that, like getting hunted by the dark faction and facing more troubles like this.

Thinking of this, Irene frowned even harder as she looked at Li Wei, who was patting Li Xin and Li Yin with a smile.

"XinXin, there were some troublesome nobles, so I had to cut off their hands. That's why it took so much time," he replied with a shrug, not caring too much, leaving Li Xin and the others speechless.

"Brother, don't explain it like you're doing a normal thing. Say, how are you going to escape from the city's rules?" Li Xin asked with a pout, making Li Wei pinch her cheeks.

"No need to worry. Someone will help me, and even if they don't, I have other ways," Li Wei assured her and the others, as he was sure to deal with this.

It was definitely not in his plan to reveal his strength now, but he wouldn't just sit and watch others come to create trouble for him.

If he didn't show his strength, everyone would take him as a weakling and come after him again and again. So, it was better to just cut off the arms of a few nobles to instill fear in others who wanted to cause trouble for him.

Not to mention, Lucius wanted to use him to catch those four, so he took advantage of it to avoid personally explaining to others.

'That old geezer is really evil. He would even dare to use weak people like me. He's got no shame,' Li Wei complained, thinking of Lucius.

The old geezer had many ways to stop them before they could create trouble, but he didn't do it and waited for them to start fighting so he could throw those four in lockup again.

Li Wei didn't know the reason, but he concluded it must have something to do with the tense relationship with the church and royals.

But he didn't ponder too much and arrived in the training room with everyone.

"Miss Irene, the training room can only withstand up to level 70 attacks, so we have to suppress our strength to level 60 to avoid causing any damage," Li Wei informed before starting the spar with her.

Upon hearing this, Irene nodded.

"Okay, I will only use my strength up to level 60," she replied without any surprise, making Li Wei feel a little jealous as he didn't have control over his strength and has to use level lock skill to do this, unlike her who could do it without any external help.

'She must have a hundred percent control over her strength,' Li Wei thought, feeling depressed.

But he didn't ponder too much and arrived in the spacious place, followed by Irene, who was looking around curiously, wondering why the temperature was so low here.

"Miss Irene, the temperature is cold here because I let my clone create snow for you last night," Li Wei explained with a smile as he watched her restless eyes.

He never thought that he would meet a priestess who liked the snow so much it made him feel funny.

'Maybe there's some weird reason behind her liking the snow,' he thought, wondering what it could be, when he felt Irene's cold gaze on him.

"Humph, Li Wei, you better not laugh at me. I like the snow because of my mother," Irene replied, wrinkling her nose cutely as she saw through his thoughts.

Hearing this, Li Wei just shrugged his shoulders as he glanced at Li Xin and the others, who were standing at a distance away to watch their spar with some snacks.

'These girls...' Li Wei muttered in his mind, feeling speechless. The same went for Irene, but she didn't care too much.

"Sisters, I am about to spar with Brother Wei, so make sure to watch closely as you will learn new things," she reminded them before turning towards Li Wei.

"Brother Wei, it might be a little hard for you to fight me, but don't expect me to go easy on you because I want to teach my sisters how to fight," Irene stated with a wide smirk as she took out her sword.

While hearing her, Li Wei chuckled.

"Miss Irene, no need to go easy on me. I am itching for a fight like this," he replied with excitement as he also took out his sword.

Your journey continues on m-vle-mpyr

He was really happy to fight with her as he could learn her skills, but what he cared most about was fighting with skills, just like how he did in RPG games.

It got him excited a lot, even more than when he was leveling up and killing thousands of monsters alone.

Watching him like this, Irene felt a little weird, but she didn't care and nodded.

"Watch out, I will attack first," she stated, and suddenly her aura changed to a cold one, and her naughty smile was replaced with a serious face.

"Teleportation," she muttered in a low voice, and with a boom, she disappeared, making Li Wei narrow his eyes at her.

But before he could think, she arrived behind him, launching a simple sword attack.

However, Li Wei was prepared for it, so he swiftly blocked her attack with his sword.

*Clang!*

A loud metallic sound rang as they were both in a stalemate. However, the situation changed drastically as a kick headed towards Li Wei's crotch with speed, making him shiver.

'Fuck,' Li Wei cursed as he dodged hurriedly with Shadow Step when a notification rang, reminding him that he had learned the Multi-Thinking skill.

But he didn't have time to check as he felt a presence behind him.

'Damn, she is already behind me,' Li Wei cursed again, dodging hurriedly with Shadow Step. But this time, he unknowingly used the Multi-Thinking skill he has just acquired to prepare for her the defence.

*Clang!*

A clash happened between the swords again as Irene's eyes widened at him.

'Was he hiding his Multi-Thinking skill?' she thought, feeling a little stunned, wondering if he was hiding anything more.

Li Wei, too, found out after using the Multi-Thinking skill, but he didn't care too much, as Irene didn't know what kinds of skills he has.

However, he made sure not to use newly learned skills as he fought fiercely with her, using mage and swordsman class skills.

*Boom! Bang! Clang! Shing!*

Various sounds echoed as two figures flashed with speed inside the training room, making Li Xin and the others stunned.

"Sister Li, can you follow their spar?" Lily asked with irritation, as she could only see Li Wei and Irene for a second before they disappeared and appeared again in different places.

She was above level 50, but she hasn't gotten used to her full strength yet, so she wasn't able to follow their spar with her eyes and could only catch a glimpse when they are slow. The same went for Li Xin and the others, who were helpless.

"Lily, I can only catch some glimpses like you," Li Xin replied with a sigh as she realized her eyes couldn't even follow her beloved brother.

The same disappointment was felt by others as they realized they couldn't catch up with their leader.

This disappointment only increased further as they saw Li Wei and Irene's fight starting to heat up, as if they were enjoying it, playing tricks on each other with different skills while fighting in midair.

Li Wei didn't know all of this, but he was enjoying the fight. Currently, both of them failed to harm each other and were trying to come up with different tricks.

Irene has skills and her knowledge, while Li Wei solely relied on his MP and the newly learned Multi-Thinking skill, which helped him to cast skills simultaneously without any delay.

It was a good thing he learned the skill, or he wouldn't be able to escape the fate of getting beaten up by her.

As their spar continued, a news struck the whole city, leaving them dumbfounded.

The news was none other than the four nobles whose hands were cut off after entering Villa No.1.

However, no one was aware that Li Wei did this because not many people has seen it, and even if they knew, they wouldn't tell others, as they could see Li Wei's level is higher than he shows. It means he has a blessing, and it wasn't a good thing to offend him.

So, people could only speculate about this and reached the following conclusion.

"It must be Inquisitor Lucius!" they all thought the same thing and agreed without hesitation, not knowing Lucius almost coughed up blood after finding out the news.

"Damn boy, see what you did," Lucius cursed in his manor with an ugly expression and weary face as he didn't except the blame would fall on him.
