Chapter 416: 327, kill Hu Er and return to White Dove City
```
"Light fills the entire space, permeating every corner. It contains the stars and the moon in the sky, which is why the Light Rank is the strongest. The name of the Dawn-level Adventure Group is also related to the Light Rank,"
As for the moon, there's but one in the night sky, while stars are countless. No matter how numerous the starlight, it can't outshine the moonlight."
Hehehehe... This fox means to say only one thing: Moon Rank is not something the three of you at Star Rank can overcome. This iron-clad Law is one no adventurer can bypass."
A charred figure, devoid of skin and fur, ghostly appeared behind Lin Da.
At that instant, Lin Da and his two companions felt a chill rise from the bottom of their hearts, their bodies covered in goosebumps.
Tasya was facing that person, and Lin Da could see the appearance of the speaker reflected in her pupils.
Hu Er held a broken test tube-like vial in his left hand, his lips stained with a dark liquid. The liquid was highly corrosive, carving gaps into his lips and exposing his lower fangs.
A power very similar to that of a witch rose from within Hu Er.
His eyes were filled with roiling dark mist, his soles burned down to the bone, with only a layer of flesh remaining, stepping on the ground as if he felt no pain.
He was practically a "living dead"!
Lia's eyes widened as she cried out: "Stop—"
Hu Er, clutching a dagger, aimed for Lin Da's heart.
At such a distance, Lin Da had no chance of dodging. He hadn't even added a Verdant Shield for protection.
If a vital point were hit, there would be only one consequence...!
Lia felt as if something exploded in her head, her body stiffened, as though drenched in mud.
Her eyes clearly saw Hu Er, but her hands couldn't keep up. She could only watch helplessly as the skeletal Hu Er, with a fierce smile, stabbed Lin Da in the back with his dagger.
That was an intense sense of powerlessness that made her nauseous. Lia couldn't even make a sound, she just gaped.
Lin Da, directly facing Lia, saw her panicked expression and a look of surprise flashed across his eyes.
He quickly focused his attention on his Life Barrier, concentrating all his energy on his back to resist Hu Er's attack as much as possible.
But at the next moment.
"—It ends here."
From a kilometer high in the sky, a figure descended swiftly.
Like a diving falcon, its speed was so fast that the clouds turned into large "smoke rings", split apart by the descending person.
In the nick of time, this adventurer, with pale golden Light Wings and dressed in a black robe, landed between Lin Da and Hu Er.
She descended from the sky like a catkin, touching the ground without making a sound.
Her voice was crisp and pleasant, obviously that of a woman.
She appeared to be no more than one meter forty, with a pure white mask covering her face. The neckline of her black robe revealed a snow-white and delicate collarbone, with silver hair reaching her hips.
Compared to Tasya's slightly greyish hair, that of the Little Black-Robed Person was somewhat brighter.
She casually extended her right hand, yawning lazily. Anyone could see how slow her motion was.
Yet, with such a nonchalant grab, she caught Hu Er's dagger with absolute precision—rather, the dagger that Hu Er had thrust suddenly curved as if attracted by a powerful magnet, delivering itself right into the hand of the black-robed person.
This terrifying strength made all four people present twitch their eyelids.
Immediately after, the little hand of the black-robed person lightly clapped, and Hu Er was hit hard. He screamed "Ah", flying over ten meters away, smashing through several thick trees.
With that blow, Hu Er spewed blood all over, his already sparse flesh fell in chunks to the ground.
Apart from his fox head, his body was essentially reduced to a skeleton, lying on the ground barely alive.
From Hu Er's sudden uprising to being thrown, it only took three seconds.
As a result, Lin Da and the others' emotions were like a roller coaster, from the tension of life and death to shock, astonishment, bewilderment...
They all stood frozen, unable to react. Stay tuned to My Virtual Library Empire
The despondently strong Hu Er, whom the three of them combined could not defeat, was so easily thrown away.
It was as if swatting a fly were no different.
"Light Rank."
Lin Da, Lia, and Tasya all had the same thought in their heads.
Who else but the Light Rank could throw Hu Er effortlessly with a casual hit?
That overwhelming battle qi was tens of times stronger than Hu Er's!
If Hu Er gave Lin Da the feeling that there was hope to win, then the mysterious person before him, Lin Da guessed, would require the luck of all adventurers across the continent to stand a chance at winning.
Lin Da didn't know if the person was friend or foe, his gaze wary as he looked over.
Despite being short in stature, shaped like a dwarf, wearing a black robe and hood, with a pure white mask that bore no pattern on her face, under the mask were a pair of dark purple eyes.
As Lin Da observed her, she was also assessing him.
No emotion could be discerned from behind those eyes.
Lin Da had a nagging feeling that her mask looked familiar.
It bore some resemblance to the mask of Dark Shadow.
Surely she wasn't cosplaying as Dark Shadow?
Lin Da thought to himself in bemusement.
At this time, not far away, Hu Er bit down on his teeth and struggled to rise, activating his Battle Qi Twin Wings to flee.
Against the Light Rank, Hu Er had no desire to engage in battle.
But the Little Black-Robed Person was already alert to the slightest movement around her. With a cold snort, a three-meter-long blue hand materialized from the void and slapped down, pinning Hu Er to the spot!
It was the Hand of the Void, the unique ability of a Light Rank Adventurer!
The Light Rank could solidify their battle qi or magic power into a controllable Hand of the Void. It used minimal energy while its lethality was quite impressive.
