From Beast Abilities to Sect Grand Master

Chapter 181 Paper Man

[Ding!]

[Detected soul with malevolent intent incoming!]

[Terminate person with malevolent intent for 500 vengeance points.]

The scholarly officer stepped to the side, dodging Lin Fan's claws.

"I admire your bravery, having the guts to come up against someone who's at the peak of Core Formation Level," the scholarly officer said.

He turned the brush pen upward with the brush facing up and smashed it down onto Lin Fan's back.

Thud.

Lin Fan's Primordial Earth Bastion blocked the attack.

The next moment, Lin Fan swung his arm to the side, trying to use his claws to open the scholarly officer's abdomen.

Whoosh.

A gust of wind came as Lin Fan's claws went past the scholarly officer as he stepped back.

Lin Fan turned toward the scholarly officer and lunged at him again.

When he got near, he saw the scholarly officer take out an umbrella made of paper.

The umbrella opened and blocked his path to the scholarly officer.

Screech.

To his surprise, his claws couldn't get through the umbrella and gave out a screeching sound.

It was as if the umbrella was made of hard metal.

"I see why you have the courage.

"Such a pity, if only everyone in the Quan Dynasty was half as courageous as you.

"I wouldn't have to spend my time in this godforsaken castle facing the cold and the barbarians."

The scholarly officer kept talking as he turned and blocked Lin Fan's advances with his umbrella.

Lin Fan had had enough, and he lunged at the scholarly officer again.

As usual, the scholarly officer directed his umbrella at Lin Fan.

But this time, Lin Fan turned into a mist and went through the umbrella.

The next moment, Lin Fan appeared behind the scholarly officer.

Lin Fan went for the scholarly officer's neck with his claws.

A glow immediately emitted from the scriptures on the scholarly officer's armor.

Soon after, the scholarly officer was engulfed in a white glow.

He thought the hammers would hinder his movements in close-quarter combat, but the ability of the scholarly officer forced him to use them.

The illuminated Ember Wolf went at the scholarly officer.

Seeing the Ember Wolf coming at him, the scholarly officer hurled more paper men at it.

But the paper men couldn't do anything as they were burned by the heat and fire of the Ember Wolf.

When all the paper men were burned to ashes, the scholarly officer quickly took out his paper sword and stabbed at the Ember Wolf.

The same thing happened with his paper sword; it burned and crumpled into ashes.

Thud.

The Ember Wolf tried to take a bite at the scholarly officer's neck, but the scripture on the armor glowed again and blocked its attack.

Lin Fan immediately followed up and smashed at the scholarly officer's head with his hammer.

Thud.

Thud.

Thud.

He smashed and continued smashing until the glow of the armor slowly dimmed as the power in the scripture of the armor wore off.

Finally, the armor could not provide any protection anymore, and his hammers smashed onto the head of the scholarly officer.

Every hit from the hammers made the scholarly officer stunned for a moment.

But as a veteran, the scholarly officer's survival instinct kicked in, and with muscle memory, he leaped back.

Dang.

Lin Fan missed as his hammers hit the ground, making it into a small crater as the rocks cracked with the impact.

He lunged at the scholarly officer again.

When he came up to the scholarly officer, he could see that the scholarly officer smirked and then opened his mouth.

Shouting very loudly, "Help me!"

Lin Fan quickly stowed his hammers and covered the scholarly officer's mouth with his hand.

Knock.

Knock.

Knock.

"Officer, is everything all right in there? I think I heard something."

The patrolling soldier who heard someone shout within came over and checked on the officer.

The scholarly officer tried to cry for help but could only make some muffled sounds.
