Chapter 513: Repentance and Punishment
"Come out!" Just from a single passing glance, Hugo sensed someone hiding nearby. He leaped into the air, his hand touching a spot that immediately opened a hole. Through this opening, he also reached the floor below. Before his feet even touched the ground, he waved his hand toward the direction he sensed, and the debris left from the battle transformed into countless "scalpels" that shot out, nailing themselves densely across the floor and walls, heading straight for the figure in the corner!
"Divine protection for the faithful!" A white light erupted from the corner. Under its illumination, those scalpel-like sharp weapons lost all their force and clattered to the ground. Then Serin, dressed in his distinctive attire, stepped out and addressed Hugo, "Sir, there's no need for such intense anger. We are all trapped in this dungeon and should be watching out for each other."
Hugo turned around without wasting words. He swept a hand across the wall, and from beneath his palm, two Spring Ropes shot out, swiftly darting forward to flank Serin from both sides.
Those two Spring Ropes were aimed at binding him, and they were covered in uneven patches of black and gray.
"Be careful!" Xu Huo was in the corridor opposite where Serin had emerged. Seeing this, he shouted a warning, "Those black spots can kill!"
"Filthy things!" Serin deftly dodged the Spring Ropes. As they passed by him, he pulled out a bottle and splashed its contents onto the ropes. With a sizzling sound, the sections of rope that got wet began to foam with white bubbles. By the time the ropes retracted back to Hugo, the black-gray pathogens on them had vanished.
Hugo frowned, looking seriously at Serin. "Are you with that woman upstairs?"
"You mean that beautiful lady wearing the butterfly mask?" Serin put away his bottle. "I have not had the fortune of knowing her."
Hugo waved a hand dismissively upon hearing this. "Then step aside. I'm looking for that kid who's hiding."
