There were not many people on the streets of the royal city at the moment. After the siren sounded and spread throughout the royal city, most passers-by had already fled to places where they thought they could avoid trouble.
People who are still on the streets now, except for those who are absolutely confident in their own strength, are really unable to leave.
"How is the target?! Where is he now? Can you see him over there? Have you requested the magic energy location of the floating island?"
A mage was surrounded by a storm, and the wind element lifted him up to fly at a high speed about ten meters above the ground, ignoring the obstacles of the intricate architectural layout in the royal city, trying to keep up with the murderer of the Viscount.
News from everywhere came from the magic communication device in his hand, and he was also communicating with all the city guards he could contact through the communication device, trying to use his familiarity with the terrain of the royal city to target this fast and scary murderer. Complete the pursuit and interception.
"No, the floating island's magic energy positioning cannot detect this guy. The circle of black smoke around the guy has obscured all other detection methods except visual. Sir, can you still see him now? ?”
The response from the communication device made the mage very helpless. His wind element displacement spell had been driven to the extreme, and the flow of magic power around him was almost the limit that he could bear.
But no, the guy with the black smoke within the range of his magic far vision has almost reached the limit of his field of vision.
"What is the strength of this guy? At this speed...where are the reinforcements from Night Blade? Have they arrived?"
Although he didn't believe that he could catch up with the guy who was covered in black smoke and running on the ground at an exaggerated speed.
But the mage still tried to keep the murderer within his sight. The death of a viscount was not a trivial matter, and it would be very troublesome if it was not solved well.
"Too bad, there are no Night Blade teams around. Currently, only the Night Blade special operations team is performing tasks in the nearby city wall area. It is very likely that we will not be able to provide support..."
"No, their mission has ended and they are rushing here. But sir, their strength is only about the middle level of formal knights. If you can't keep up with the displacement of wind magic, it will be difficult for them to do it. .”
The response from the city guard came from the communication device. The news that there was no Night Blade team around made the mage feel cold at first. This was too unlucky. Under normal circumstances, the Night Blade action team should be distributed throughout the royal city. They were conducting patrols and executing missions, but now there happened to be no team at all?
However, the subsequent news made the mage temporarily relieved. Fortunately, the special operations team happened to be nearby, and it would be lucky if they could provide support quickly.
As for the issue of strength, the mage knows that the strength of the members of the special operations team is definitely much higher than their own level.
…
The pitch-black figure was running wildly on the street, with black smoke billowing all over it. All features and other features were blocked by this layer of black cover. Even the curves of the body were not clearly visible, making it difficult to distinguish between men and women.
But its running speed is enough to explain the problem. This is definitely a knight with great strength.
He raised his head and glanced at the surrounding sky. His eyes, which were glowing slightly in the black smoke, narrowed. The mage who had been chasing it had disappeared from sight.
I sensed the situation of the black mist on my body. I still have time to maintain it, but I have to find a place to evacuate quickly.
Once the city guards and Night Blades gathered together, and the academy began to provide spell support, it would be difficult for them to escape in the royal city, their home ground.
The luminous eyes in the black smoke flickered slightly, and the figure that had just turned a corner and was running forward suddenly stopped and sidestepped to avoid the object falling from the sky.
"Kakakaka!" Pieces of scarlet things fell from the sky. On the way down, they twisted and deformed, transforming into sharp bloody long swords. Bloody long swords of different sizes fell from the sky, covering them like heavy rain. The path forward for the noble murderer.
On the top of the building in front, Wang Yu, whose scarlet cloak was obviously much smaller behind him, was standing on the edge of the building, looking at the figure with black smoke below, his eyes calm.
The black smoke humanoid and Wang Yu looked at each other, then without hesitation, they continued to run forward, jumped up and moved quickly on the building next to them, avoiding the blood-filled cloak on Wang Yu's back that turned into a long sword of blood. the way.
His eyes briefly paused on the layer of black smoke on the surface of the black smoky figure. Wang Yu then let go of his hand on the edge of the building and quickly fell from the height of the house.
Accelerating with the help of gravity, and using the arms made of blood on the back of the house to borrow force several times from the bulge on the edge of the house, the speed was even faster.
The blood swords stuck on the ground turned into liquid again, flowing towards the place where Wang Yu fell.
Before Wang Yu, who arrived one step earlier than the black smoke humanoid, landed, he turned into several flexible bloody hands and caught Wang Yu steadily. During this period, they gathered together at a high speed and turned into a bloody cloak behind Wang Yu again.
"Huh!" Wang Yu, who landed on the ground, had already prepared his posture. He landed on his right foot, turned around, turned his left leg into an afterimage, and kicked hard at the black smoke figure rushing towards him.
"Peng!" Wang Yu fell very fast. Wang Yu, who had adjusted his posture in advance and had blood buffer, didn't even have the intention of stopping, which made the speed of his kick ridiculously fast.
Almost as soon as the black smoke humanoid rushed here, Wang Yu was already waiting for him on this inevitable road. It seemed that this guy who was running so fast sent his head directly to Wang Yu's feet.
"Crack!" However, Wang Yu's extremely fast kick was dodged. The black shadow figure did not slow down, and an iron bridge slid on the ground, directly sliding through the gap under Wang Yu's kicked leg. After passing by, the speed did not decrease much.
Wang Yu could use more than four limbs at this moment. As he spun around and kicked, the bloody cloak behind him turned into several extended tentacles and penetrated into the walls of the buildings on both sides. Driven by the fighting spirit of the bloody storm knight's secret method Below, the two walls collapsed.
The masonry wall overturned and collapsed. Just as the black figure passed Wang Yu, he was about to face the collapsed brick wall. "Bang, bang, bang!" The iron bridge and the sliding posture did not give this guy who was smoking black anything. When he had the opportunity to dodge, a large number of bricks and stones hit his body one after another.
These bricks and stones could not cause any effective damage to him, but the bricks falling on the path forward brought certain obstacles to this guy's running.
The temporary slowdown in speed gave Wang Yu another opportunity to stop him. The blood-colored cloak behind him deformed again, and the blood quickly fluidized and penetrated into the gaps between the broken masonry and piles on the ground.
As soon as the black smoke humanoid broke out of the smoke, several hard blood spears had already risen from the front, blocking his front.
Behind him, Wang Yu also ran and charged towards the black smoke humanoid. The fury of the furnace in his hand sent six ordinary bullets to the black smoke humanoid faster than himself.
The blood spear is also changing, from the limited hardness that can be created by the bloody storm knight's secret method to a tougher and more powerful blood sword that can be created by the material sword shaping method.
"Puff, puff, puff...!" Wang Yu's pupils shrank slightly as he looked directly at the black smoke humanoid running in front of him. The black smoke humanoid's arm turned into a black shadow with an invisible trajectory and swept back.
Almost six collision sounds reached Wang Yu's ears at the same time. The six ordinary bullets fired by Furnace Fury were directly swept away by this guy's backhand swing.
The ricocheting bullets maintained an exaggerated speed and flew in all directions, punching holes in the surface of the nearby building with fragments flying everywhere.
The action of waving his arms did not hinder the black smoke humanoid from continuing to run at a high speed, and jumped in front of the wall of blood swords formed by Wang Yu's blood. The black smoke humanoid paused slightly and swept forward with a whip leg.
The legs filled with black smoke collided with the blood sword, which was tougher than ordinary iron swords. What was shattered were the swords that blocked this guy. The exaggerated force and physical strength shattered the sword. The barrier created by Wang Yu broke through an opening in an instant.
Wang Yu did not give up and continued to chase. His mental power activated the Spellweaver's Book, the storm gathered, and the second-level sprint spell - Storm Foot.
The gathered wind elements gave Wang Yu an explosive propulsion, and Wang Yu's speed increased directly from zero to an astonishing degree, at least faster than the black smoke humanoid that paused briefly.
Wang Yu, whose body was slightly off the ground, felt a sense of crisis coming from his body's instinct at this moment. No, the posture of the black smoke humanoid in front of him who swept away the obstacle created by his own blood was wrong. That was not an action to continue running. That is……
Without any warning, or Wang Yu's body reacted, but his consciousness was a little slower to react, the black smoke figure appeared in front of him as if to continue running away. He turned around and punched. A series of actions were completed in an instant, and the black smoke surrounded him. Yi's fist hit Wang Yu's chest.
"Danger!" His body was issuing a warning, giving an early warning of the power of the next punch, and the ripples without the blessing of the void were also felt when the fist approached a range of one and a half meters.
There is a layer of materialized fighting spirit on the surface of that black smoke-filled fist. The fighting spirit is materialized. This guy is a great knight!
The surrounding blood seemed to be frightened by the living creatures, and they bounced and shrank back. Although most of the blood had no time to return, some of the blood was still blocked before the black smoke humanoid hit Wang Yu's fist.
The boiling, deformation, and crazy injection of fighting energy caused the rushing blood to complete a qualitative change in a very short period of time, turning from liquid into a tough long sword. Several overlapping long swords stuck together to form a A very weird shaped blood shield.
"Crack, Peng!" The layer of physical fighting spirit on the surface of the black smoke-filled fist smashed the blood shield hastily formed in a short period of time during the collision.
The hardened blood was scattered everywhere, and even flew towards Wang Yu because of the terrifying force of hitting Wang Yu, leaving several blood marks on Wang Yu's face.
But compared to the powerful blow that followed, it was nothing. Wang Yu folded his arms into a cross to protect his chest, and the fist filled with black smoke smashed the blood shield, only the outer layer materialized. The fighting spirit collapsed slightly, but the overall strength was not weak at all.
The moment the flesh of the arm collided with the fist, it was crushed and torn, and the flesh and blood were blurred.
The force that crushed the outer layer of flesh passed through this layer of buffering and was unreservedly vented on the internal bones. The hard bones of the official knight did not fare well at all when faced with the inhuman power of the great knight. .
After letting out a wail that was twisted under the huge force, it was smashed to the ground and broken. The broken bone was pushed through the flesh by the force, exposing the body surface and piercing Wang Yu's chest.
The blood on the ground that had not arrived in time was dragging Wang Yu in the same direction as the force of the fist, just to relieve as much force as possible.
The body flew backwards under the powerful punch of the black smoke humanoid knight, and hit the wall of the nearby building hard.
The whole person was embedded directly in. Under the impact, the whole building shook, and the screams of the residents in the room also reached Wang Yu's ears.
The blood was rapidly gathering towards Wang Yu. Regardless of whether it was effective or not, some protection had to be put in place as much as possible so that the great knight could not directly kill Wang Yu in the next attack.
Fortunately, the black smoke humanoid did not choose to come up and kill him, but turned around and continued running quickly.
"Huh..." He let out a slight breath and looked at the back of the black smoke humanoid running away quickly. Fortunately, the main purpose of this guy with the strength of a great knight was to escape, not to kill him. Otherwise, Wang Yu would be in trouble today. That's big.
"There's no need to chase... This guy is at least as strong as a great knight. He didn't do anything just because his main purpose was to escape. Otherwise, it would be very easy to kill you."
The blood turned into tentacles and took out the communication device, replacing the twisted and shapeless hands that could not be used for the time being. He told Edward Shire the news that there was no need to pursue it, and the mage chief of the city guard who had sent a request for assistance before. .
All the blood gathered around Wang Yu again, crushing Wang Yu's bottles containing recovery potions. The potions were mixed into the blood, and directly entered Wang Yu's body through the twisted and broken wounds on his hands, and began to repair the horrific wounds.
Blood covered the wounds on Wang Yu's hands, and the flexible force reset the broken bones. The blood, which had the ability to repair itself, began to close the wounds bit by bit. The silk threads made of blood sutured the severed flesh and skin.
In about a minute or so, although it still looked bloody and tattered, the wounds on both hands had closed up. It was not like when they were first smashed by a punch, with only a layer of skin remaining. Swinging and swinging.
As for the broken sternum in the chest that was hit by the force, and the internal organs that were damaged by the shock, they have been quickly restored by Wang Yu's powerful self-healing ability and the effect of the potion.
"I'm careless. The gap between a formal knight and a great knight is really too big. In terms of physique, fighting spirit, not to mention pure strength, I can only be considered a junior formal knight. I'm lucky that I didn't die today."
With the support of his own blood, Wang Yu stood up again and narrowed his eyes slightly to look in the direction where the great knight left.
Whether it is the secret art of the Bloodstorm Knight, or the material sword-shaping art, as well as the Furnace's Fury and the Book of the Spellweaver, under this gap, there is no way to make up for the disparity in power.
"Wang Yu, how are you? Are you okay?!" Edward's figure rushed out from the side of the road, followed by Ciel, who was panting and sweating.
"It's okay, just a minor injury."
Wang Yu raised his bloody hands, and the surface of his skin was still squirming. It was the body resetting itself and connecting the broken flesh.
The blood was also surging inside to remove some debris that could not be reattached from the body. This caused a constant and terrible pain to come from the surrounding nerves, but it was still nothing to Wang Yu.
As long as it can be cured, it is a minor injury.
"Now that it's like this, don't ask Wang Yu if he's okay. It's obvious from the first glance that he is. Huh, but if the great knight is able to talk to us in this posture, it's true. Huh, you're pretty lucky."
Charles panted and patted Edward's shoulder, and placed a tarot card with some bright red hearts on Wang Yu's injured hand, in the position of • Lover.
The pale pink light covered Wang Yu's ferocious wound, and the blood and flesh squirmed and healed suddenly faster, allowing Wang Yu to repair the damage a little faster.
"Thank you." Wang Yu said, and the solid blood fragments scattered around turned into liquid again, gathered around Wang Yu, climbed up Wang Yu's fingers along the body, and re-entered the open mouth of the skull of the blood-biting ring. , return to that special space that can only hold blood.
"This ability of yours is your inner potential? When did you successfully awaken your inner potential?" Charles looked at the blood flow around Wang Yu with some curiosity, which was as flexible as a living thing.
"No, it's the secret technique of the Bloody Storm Knight, and a new method of using fighting spirit that I got in the library last time."
Wang Yu responded casually and shook his hand. The wound was not broken. It was very good. It should be able to be used normally after a period of recovery.
"The secret method of the Bloody Storm Knight? I have seen that in the big library before, but shouldn't this secret method only allow the blood to automatically stop bleeding or counterattack when a wound occurs? You are a little too flexible with these bloods."
The person asking this question was Edward. As the same knight, he had a much deeper understanding of hidden secrets and knight secrets than Ciel, which also gave him more doubts.
"No, after mastering the fighting spirit operation method of the knight's secret method, if you use it frequently, your body will turn that fighting spirit operation method into instinct. After that, you can control your fighting spirit more subtly, and you can freely control your blood. Isn’t this the secret method of your Knight of the Iron Sun?
Wang Yu was a little confused by Edward's question. Although there were some ripples in the knight's secret technique when he used it, he could still control the blood as flexibly as he did now even without the ripples.
"You mean that you can freely control the fighting spirit in your whole body, and to a very subtle extent? At the same time, the knight's secret technique has become something like instinct for you?"
Edward's tone became a little surprised, and he looked at Wang Yu with a hint of surprise.
Wang Yu nodded and confirmed Edward's statement. That's it. It's true that he and Edward have never talked about this. Is there any difference between them?
