The seven Hell Hounds opened their mouths and fired their [Fireball] skill towards Tang Li Xue who was still standing in the middle of their siege.
Tang Li Xue also did not stay silent. Seeing that the current situation was getting worse for him, Tang Li Xue decided to run towards one of the Hell Dogs!
'Damn it! Are you all a pack of dogs or a pack of wolves ?! How can you all work together so neatly?!'
Tang Li Xue decided not to use the [Ethereal Form] this time because in the [Ethereal Form] she would receive twice the damage from the elemental attacks and the [Fire Ball] Hell Dog was an element attack the fire!
Tang Li Xue also opened her mouth and fired her [Fireball] towards the Hell Hound in front of her.
BOOOOM~~!
The two fireballs collided and exploded, although Tang Li Xue's [fireball] was slightly weaker than the [Fire Ball] Hell Hound because her current strength was lower but she managed to neutralize the Hell Hound's attack.
Fortunately, he had already replaced his [Ice Bolt] skill with their [Fireball] skill with the [Mirror of the Moon] before. Otherwise he would not have been able to neutralize the Hell Hound's attack with the effect of a fireball explosion.
But there were six more fireballs fired towards him from 6 different directions!
Tang Li Xue ran at full speed along with her [Sprint] skill activated towards Hell Hound whose attack she had neutralized earlier.
Six fireballs chased after Tang Li Xue at a speed faster than his running speed!
Tang Li Xue started swinging her body to the right and to the left, her running manner changed from straight to a zigzag pattern. His high agility stats gave his body such high flexibility that he could easily change his running pattern without reducing his speed at all!
BOOM UP! BOOM UP! BOOM UP! BOOM UP! BOOM UP! BOOM UP!
One after another the fireballs almost hit it but in the end failed and landed randomly nearby then exploded!
Sometimes it exploded behind him, and the others exploded beside him! However, Tang Li Xue was still untouched by all those fireballs!
Tang Li Xue arrived in front of one of the Hell Hounds but she still did not slow down her speed at all!
Hell Hound placed his fighting position, preparing to fight with Tang Li Xue directly.
However, the Hell Hound would never have thought that since Tang Li Xue had almost hit him, he immediately used the [Jump] skill and made a high jump above the head of Hell Hound!
Tang Li Xue instantly activated [Ethereal Form] as she used the [Jumping] skill, she made it seem as if she had completely disappeared in front of Hell Hound.
The Seven Hell Dogs were puzzled by Tang Li Xue's sudden disappearance and they looked around warily trying to find where Tang Li Xue was.
Unfortunately, Tang Li Xue had already decided not to play around with all of them anymore…
'With all this commotion, all the guards standing guard outside should be aware that something has happened here and they might come over soon to check this room out ... I need to hide for now! It's not like those dogs can tell the guard about me, is it? Hehe…'
Tang Li Xue sneaked back quietly to where she was before and used [Fireball] once again to burn the Hell Hound body she had killed before.
'Better to play it safe than sorry! It would be bad if those guards realized that there was an intruder sneaking in here!'
Tang Li Xue activated her [Ethereal Form] back and ran deeper into the Pill Storage Room.
.....
Not long after, as Tang Li Xue had predicted. There were dozens of guards patrolling into the Pill Storage Room to check what was going on inside.
The sound of Hell Hound barking and their fireballs exploding everywhere was so loud that something like this was bound to happen.
BAM~~!
"YES, CAPTAIN!!!" All the guards answered in unison and started following their captain's orders.
However, no one realized how nervous their captain really was…
'Damn it! If something bad really happened or something was missing from this Pill Storage Room, my head would probably be off my neck the next morning! I hope nothing bad happens here…'
After spending 10-20 minutes searching in every corner of the Pill Storage Room, they still did not manage to find anyone inside.
"Report, Captain! There was no one inside but we found one dead Hell Hound dog! That hellhound died in a fire!" One of the guards saluted and said to his captain.
"Are there any pills missing from this room?" The guard captain asked again.
"No, Captain! But we found some shelves falling on top of the five Hell Hounds leaving them unable to move and injured! But after we counted, nothing was missing! All the pill bottles also remained intact, nothing was broken! We've also helped Hell Hounds out and treated their wounds!"
The guard captain heaved a sigh of relief when he heard that and said: "so nothing is lost or broken...Good...everything is good...then what about the dead Hell Hound? Did you find out the reason why he died?"
"Yes, Captain! In addition to the burns, we also found some bite scars and indistinct scratches from the corpse of Hell Hounds! We suspect he died because.." The guards were hesitant with what he wanted to say.
"SAY!" The guard captain shouted.
"We suspect it died because they were fighting amongst themselves!" The guards began to sweat profusely.
The guard captain frowned but this Pill Storage Room was like a safe. Other than one sturdy door filled with locking mechanisms and arrays, there were not even windows or vents here so how could an intruder enter and exit here secretly as he wished.
Moreover, there was nothing missing at all from this room so the only conclusion was the Hell Dogs fighting amongst themselves and accidentally killing one of them??
But all of these Hell Hounds were elites handpicked by ferocious beast trainers and received intensive training for many years.so how could they fight amongst themselves like today ?! That doesn't make any sense at all! This possibility is also very slim!
The guard captain had a severe headache about this, but he was completely unable to find any other reason since the Hell Dog had died from the fire or the bite and claw, he said, not because of weapons or human attacks!
In the end, the guard captain decided to ransack the entire Pill Storage Room several times before ordering his 2 units to guard this Pill Storage Room from the outside!
Well, he definitely did not trust his subordinates enough to order them to guard inside the Pill Storage Room that was filled with precious pills.
"Remember! Don't enter this room without my permission! Especially the thick iron door inside this room! Never touch it! You understand?!" The guard captain gave a stern warning to his subordinates before leaving them and continued his work of patrolling outside the residence.
The guard captain actually did not know what was actually stored inside that thick iron door. After all that was not the case since he did not have enough authority to go in there. His boss just warned him not to touch him.
'Well, that's none of my business! With all the high-ranking locking arrays and dangerous inscriptions engraved on that thick iron door, I was absolutely sure no one could get through that door without the right keys and secret clues… Haha...” The guard captain laughed and continued his duties as usual.
…..
…
.
Unfortunately, the guard captain's guess was wrong this time because he would never have thought that there was a certain fox with the divine ability to pass through all material objects directly without touching it!
And Tang Li Xue who used her [Ethereal Form] to pass through the thick iron door earlier was actually in a very severe predicament right now!
Cccssssss~~!
'HOT! VERY HOT!'
