"Well, Aphelios, I think we can have a talk. I should have never seen you before, right? Even if we are enemies, there is no need for you to kill me in such a situation, right?"
Dick said to Aphelios with a frown as he saw that Aphelios had pulled out a strange machete and was walking towards him.
It wasn't that he was afraid of fighting with Aphelios, but in the current situation, it was really inconvenient for him to do so.
They were still in the same team now. They needed to work together to complete the halidom task and earn contribution points. If they started to fight, no matter who was injured, it would have a great impact on the following task.
Even if Dick killed Aphelios now, the contribution points of Aphelios wouldn't be transferred to him. Moreover, there were only two of them here. If he killed him, he would be mistaken by the people of other secret forces as a provocation to them.
In that case, he would be trapped in the siege and lose the chance to complete the halidom task and obtain the serendipity.
"Yeah, we haven't met each other, but I have known you for a long time. The distance between us is too far. I have never had a chance to find you. Now, we finally meet!"
Aphelios said slowly. He pulled out a skeleton pendant from his collar.
The shiny silver pendant was in the shape of crossing knees with both hands, and a pair of ferocious bone wings were opened on his back, which was extremely evil.
Dick felt the pendant looked familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it before.

"I see. No wonder this guy had a great enmity towards me from the very beginning. It is because I had wiped out the Undead race which is related to them."
But why wasn't the chieftain of the Darkness race or an elder that entered the halidom? Why was it Aphelios who wouldn't hide his anger?
If they really want to take revenge, shouldn't they send a more experienced person to lurk beside me and kill me when I am most vulnerable?
Dick was confused about all of these. However, before he could figure these out, Aphelios had already controlled the machete. He raised his hand and slashed out a dark purple blade, which cut through the space and appeared in front of Dick.
When the dark talent was activated, Dick's figure suddenly became illusory, and then floated away like a ghost. He appeared at the back of Aphelios and reached out his hand to slap him on his head.
At this moment, Dick felt a sting in his body, and his illusory state was forcefully removed.
The sudden change made Dick's movements a little slow. At this time, Aphelios had already turned around and punched Dick's palm. Dick was thrown away and broke a wall.
The dark shackle! He actually had such a special talent! Although it was only against the attribute of darkness, it could confine the opponent's talent power, and at the same time gain the ability to use the opponent's talent of the dark system.
At the moment when Aphelios's talent was activated, Dick's talent of the Eyes of God saw his talent information for a short time.
Dick heard a faint sound coming from the wall he had just broken. When he was about to turn his head to check, Aphelios had turned into a beam of black light and rushed in front of Dick. The machete with a tricky angle stabbed into Dick's body.
Dick didn't have the ethereal skill. Because his talent of the dark system was completely restricted, he couldn't even use the phantom blade and the dark doppelganger.
The dazzling light lit up the dark room and resisted the attack of Aphelios, but it also lit up the huge magical beast, which was originally hidden in the darkness.
Dick and Aphelios were both shocked. They didn't feel the breath of the magical beast just now. When did this behemoth appear?
"Halidom Task Hint: you have activated a new halidom task. After completing it, you will receive 50 contribution points and will be transferred to the second floor of the tower."
"Task: defeat the lava magical beast matrix, or kill the lava magical beast whelp."
"Hint: after killing the whelp, the matrix will fall into weakness for ten minutes. Ten minutes later, it would chase and kill the first target it had targeted. This task is a joint task of Dick and Aphelios. After completing it, the two of you will obtain contribution points at the same time."
The magical beast, which had been integrated with darkness, was lit up with blazing flames all over its body as soon as the sound of the hint ended. In the cracks of its skin, lava slowly flowed.
It stood up and broke the wall. It was a lizard-shaped magical beast over ten meters tall.
"My God! It is at the seventh stage of the spirit level! Is this serious?"
With his mouth wide open, Aphelios turned around and ran away. The lava beast let out a terrifying roar and spewed out a mouthful of lava.
The horrifying high temperature almost evaporated the water in the human body. Dick jumped up and ran following Aphelios.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"I don't think it's a good idea. If we keep running like this, we won't be able to complete the task. This damn thing will always chase after us. How about we finish the task first and then fight?"
The two of them were chased by the lava beast. Dick turned his head and shouted at Aphelios.
In fact, Dick had the chance to kill the lava beast, but since Aphelios was right next to him, it was hard to say when he dealt with the lava beast, whether Aphelios would secretly kill him or not.
"Okay, what do you think we should do?"
Said Aphelios, rolling his eyes.
"Remove your talent, return the dark talent to me, and I'll go kill the lava beast whelp. Then the task will be completed."
Aphelios sneered. He said to Dick with scorn.
"Are you so kind-hearted to help me complete the task and even be hated by the lava beast? Do you think I will believe you? And I can also use your dark talent now. Why can't I kill the lava beast whelp?"
Dick scolded, frowning.
"The situation is urgent now. Do you think I want to help you? After killing the whelp, the matrix will be weak for ten minutes, which is the chance for us to kill the matrix. Otherwise, how can we have the chance to kill the matrix?"
He sneered and said to Aphelios.
"If it weren't for the fact that I couldn't deal with the lava beast alone, I really wanted to see you be killed by it."
With a gleam shining in his eyes, Aphelios gritted his teeth and finally made up his mind.
