Chapter 176 Came With A Vengeance
Alvin's intention today was clear - to kill David. He didn't consider his subordinates as opponents capable of challenging him. Leaving Arnold alive was simply a way to let David witness his true power. Otherwise, he would have easily crushed him with a single move.
Arnold wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and still wanted to charge forward. David sternly said, "You are not his match. His target today is me. Take this time to heal your wounds. Leave the rest to me."
David took a step forward and stood in front of Alvin. In the previous battle, he had already roughly deduced Alvin's attack style - using his ability to manipulate fire for offense. He could even give consciousness to the flames, allowing them to follow his intentions. Moreover, the flames he summoned could serve both offensive and defensive purposes.
This ability surprised David, but as he looked at Alvin, the smile on his face grew even stronger. It was this young man before him who had nearly caused him to die at the hands of Alexander. Even the eighth-level corpse butterfly he had painstakingly cultivated ended up losing its life because of him. This ignited a burning rage within Alvin's heart, considering David an unforgivable individual.
"Captain, look! Is that person... Alvin?" Inside the Phoenix Rising Squad's base, Shirley exclaimed in astonishment as she looked at the screen displaying David and the elderly man across from him. Hearing Shirley's words, Duane quickly approached. As he looked at the familiar figure on the screen, he immediately confirmed that it was indeed Alvin.
"How could Alvin end up fighting David?" Duane felt a hint of confusion in his heart. With a furrowed brow, he continued to gaze at the two figures on the screen.
As Alvin's anger burned within him, a blue flame suddenly erupted from the ground! This blue flame resembled a tsunami, constantly devouring the surrounding air.
"A blue flame?" David looked at the flame, his heart tightening. He carefully examined Alvin's figure - the hunched back, the gloomy aura...
David's eyebrows furrowed suddenly! He had seen these scenes in the memories of the butterfly. This figure, this aura, he would never forget. It instantly reminded David of the tragic fate of the butterfly. It turned out that the mastermind behind it all was this unforgivable individual.
"It was you who turned the butterfly's father into a rotting spider parasite and transformed her into a corpse, right?" David clenched his fist secretly and asked coldly. He would never forget the plea of the butterfly before her death. He also swore to avenge this unfortunate father and daughter.
Upon hearing David's question, Alvin Adrian glanced at him strangely and said, "It was you who chopped off her father's head. Have you forgotten? If it weren't for me, they would have died in this world long ago. I gave them a new life, and you killed them. You are the murderer who killed them!"
Alvin grew angrier as he spoke, and the blue flame continued to lick around him. David only sneered at Alvin's words. He killed the butterfly's father and daughter? If he hadn't helped them find release, they would have forever been the other party's puppets. Was that kind of miserable existence considered a new life?
David laughed coldly. He raised his head and stared at Alvin with icy determination. Then, he took a slow step forward and said to Alvin, "Save your repentance for when you meet the father and daughter in person!" As he spoke, the Blade of Space manifested in his right hand.
Without waiting for Alvin to speak, David charged towards him. He wasn't the savior of this world, but when it came to fulfilling his promises, he had to follow through. It was his motto in life!
David came with great momentum, and the Blade of Space in his hand resonated, accompanied by the sound of space shattering and tearing inch by inch. "Since that's the case, I'll send you to hell as well!"
Alvin roared in anger, and his dragon-headed cane transformed back into a molten form as he charged towards David. The Blade of Space clashed with Alvin's molten cane, producing a crisp sound!
David gripped the blade with one hand, his gaze icy as he stared at the culprit who had killed the butterfly's father and daughter. He then retracted the Blade of Space and swung it with force once again. "Boom!" The Blade of Space unleashed a 20% critical hit, striking the molten cane with another resounding roar! After receiving this critical hit, the molten cane was slashed open, and droplets of molten lava began to flow out.
Alvin quickly stepped back and once again slammed his cane heavily into the ground. Instantly, the molten lava that dripped onto the ground began to rapidly expand and transform, forming the shape of a fierce tiger in the blink of an eye. This molten lava tiger let out a deafening roar and leaped high into the air, pouncing towards David!
At that moment, the team members behind David were shocked and stunned in place. They hadn't expected this old man to be so formidable, capable of transforming molten lava into the shape of a tiger and manipulating it in battle. This raised the tension in each of their hearts, especially Sally, who looked at David with worry, fearing that he would be harmed by the approaching tiger.
Without hesitation, David drew Mandy and pricked his index finger, allowing droplets of blood to fall onto her. "I leave this beast to you!" he said to Mandy before tossing her into the air.
Instantly, Mandy rapidly expanded and immediately engaged in combat with the molten lava tiger. Meanwhile, David opened a portal in space and charged towards Alvin. He had already decided to eliminate this damned individual immediately!
As Duane watched Mandy and the molten lava tiger battle each other on the surveillance screen, his mouth twitched. He couldn't understand David's thought process. How could he allow his beloved Mandy, in her straw body, to fight against the molten lava tiger? Wasn't he asking for trouble?
Duane would feel heartbroken even if he used the scarecrow once, but now that his precious doll was in David's hands, it seemed he didn't care at all?
Duane couldn't help but curse David's ancestors in his heart, but he also keenly sensed that Alvin was determined to kill David. It seemed that they harbored deep-seated enmity, and the only way to resolve it was by killing him and extinguishing his burning hatred.
This made Duane furrow his brow once again. Until now, he didn't understand why Alvin regarded David as his enemy. Could it be because of some secret? Duane thought of the faint silhouette beneath the camera that day. It made his heart skip a beat! If his speculation was correct, it would have fatal consequences for him.
