I Was Contracted By The Empress As An S Rank Familiar Novel - Chapter 32
Chapter 32: Ambush
It was only after Shirley fell asleep that Pan Liang could get his own way. He deliberately exchanged tranquilizer incense from the store of the system in order to let Shirley sleep more soundly.
He did not want to make a big commotion and wake her up again.
He sensed that those people were getting closer. He stopped when he was about to meet them.
Pan Liang seemed to be stretching casually, but at this moment, his avatar had already run out of his original body.
No one would care about the little poodle. The poodle was heading toward the back of the ambushers.
As the saying went, one could only win by knowing their enemies. Pan Liang made the poodle scout out the situation.
.
With his perception ability, he could only sense the human aura and determine the strength of the aura. However, he could not accurately identify the level of the people coming here.
Hence, he thought it would be better to get the poodle to take a look.
Pan Liang had seen Shirley use magic before, and he was very envious of her. He had tried it, but he could not release magic as Shirley did.
He reckoned that the only skills he could use were the skills he obtained from the system.
He took out his Immortal Sword and activated it.
The radiance of the sword was not something that the standard magic staff in Shirley’s hand could compare to. As soon as one looked at it, one would be deeply attracted to it.
Pritt, who was hiding in the distance, gazed at the sword in Pan Liang’s hand with envy.
“This sword looks like a very powerful weapon. Judging from the workmanship, the sword doesn’t seem to exist in this world. It must’ve been brought here when the familiar was summoned.”
He was right. It was Pan Liang himself who brought it here. However, it did not belong to Pan Liang. Rather, he obtained it from the system.
It could be a weapon that came with the Immortal Sword Template, or it would not seem like an Immortal Sword.
Roy looked from behind and said, “Why don’t I see Princess Shirley? When I met her earlier, this familiar was so lazy that he did not even bother to soak in the spiritual spring.”
Pritt did not believe Roy’s words. He only gave a smile while listening to what Roy said.
“Brothers, the sword in that man’s hand appears to be worth more than 100,000 gold coins. Everyone, attack together later. We must not let them escape.”
They were still waiting for Pan Liang and Shirley to take another step forward. If Pan Liang and Shirley did, they would be completely surrounded.
Pan Liang did not move forward as if he knew that they were surrounded. At this moment, he was delighted to see his Grievance Points being refreshed in the system. He decided to wait a little longer at this place and let his Grievance Points refresh for a while.
“Hey. I’ve accumulated over 8,000 Grievance Points. If they refresh for a little longer, I’ll be able to participate in the lucky draw. You guys have to keep up the good work.”
Not long after, those people stopped contributing Grievance Points to Pan Liang, which angered him as he almost qualified for the lucky draw.
He stood out with his sword. “What’s wrong with you people? Why were you angry only for such a short while?”
Roy looked at Pritt beside him in confusion. “Boss, did he notice our presence? What should we do now?”
Disappointed, Pritt said, “What do you think we should do? We’ve already been discovered. Of course, we should go up and beat him up. He only has a sword in his hand. I don’t think he can deal with so many of us. Let’s attack him together.”
While speaking, he rushed out with his familiar.
Pritt’s familiar was a fierce tiger, which was one of the best B-rank familiars. It was because of his familiar that he became the leader.
Standing in front of the carriage, Pritt sneered and said, “Shouldn’t a familiar like you use such a good weapon? You’d better offer it to our God of Heaven Church.
“Our God of Heaven Church will protect you.”
Pan Liang laughed and said, “You want my sword, huh?”
Pritt could not help but burst into joy when he noticed how smart Pan Liang was. “That’s right. As long as you hand over the sword in your hand, our God of Heaven Church will protect you.”
Pan Liang pulled out the Immortal Sword and threw it at Pritt. Overjoyed, Pritt reached out his hand to catch the sword.
However, the Immortal Sword turned around and flew back before Pritt could touch it.
“Hey. It seems that this Immortal Sword doesn’t want to go to you guys. What do you think you should do?”
Clearly, Pritt knew that he had been tricked. He pointed to Pan Liang with his finger. “Fierce tiger, attack.”
The tiger beside him rushed to Pan Liang in an instant, but Pan Liang did not panic at all. He swung his sword and deflected the tiger’s attack.
“I’m afraid that your attacks are not enough.”
[Ding! Pritt’s Grievance Points were detected. Grievance Points +80.]
Pritt glanced at Roy resentfully. Roy had told him that these two people were very weak and not worth being afraid of. Nevertheless, it turned out to be the opposite.
Pan Liang turned to dart a look at Shirley, who was still breathing steadily and showed no signs of waking up.
He shifted his gaze to the people in front of him. “Are you just going to stare at me like this? If you don’t do something, I’m going to leave.”
Pritt gave Roy a kick. “You go and attack him.”
Roy summoned his familiar, which was a giant python.
In such a place, the giant python was slow and rather useless. If it had magic buffs, it might be stronger. From Roy’s appearance, he looked like a swordsman.
Roy held his sword and was about to rush over. Pan Liang did not have a good impression of people like Roy.
The sword flew around Pan Liang twice before it sped past Roy.
Roy’s arm was taken away, and he subsequently screamed.
His python was still rushing toward the carriage because of his order. The python’s target was the horse in front of the carriage.
This made Pan Liang furious. If the horse was killed, he might not be able to make it to the location of the mission.
At this moment, Pritt mocked from behind, “Your horse is going to die.”
Pan Liang controlled the Immortal Sword and said angrily, “I’m going to kill all of you today. I don’t want any Grievance Points. I won’t play with you anymore.”
As he spoke, the Immortal Sword shuttled among those people at such a high speed that they failed to catch sight of the sword.
All they could see was a ray of light shuttling continuously.
Meanwhile, people around Pritt kept screaming. These sounds came from all directions, which instantly made Pritt anxious.
He turned his head to look at his subordinates who were falling down. He instantly knew that Pan Liang was not like what Roy had described. Pan Liang was actually a hidden expert.
“Roy, you’re just trying to kill me, aren’t you? I’m going to take your life first.”
