(Small plus more, smaller plus more.)
"Go away!" He yelled angrily, and scorching flames suddenly erupted from Shugeyin's caught thigh, and rushed upward along the arm of the knight who grabbed his calf.
The weird green flames burned the armor and flesh together. The armor peeled off and aged, while the burned skin cracked and fell off, revealing the bright red flesh underneath.
"Hmm!" The great knight was in pain and at the same time realized that he couldn't just waste time with Shugen, otherwise his right arm would be scrapped before Shugen's calf bones were shattered by his inner force.
With exertion, the fighting energy flowed to the arm, providing further bonus to the strong muscles. With a sudden force, despite being burned by the flames, the great knight suddenly threw Shugein onto the floor below.
Shugeyin was hit to the ground below at high speed. He was still facing upward, but several eyeballs that suddenly popped up on the back of his neck had already captured the thorns appearing on the floor below.
Shaking his hand, a large amount of hair grew from Shugeyin's palm and extended towards the far-reaching wall.
The seemingly soft hair, driven by the demon's power at this moment, also became tough and powerful, piercing into the wall and pulling Xiuge Yin over.
The proliferating earth thorns below seemed to be able to observe the condition of Shuge Yin. When they realized that Shuge Yin was not falling downwards, they suddenly exploded and turned into scattered earth spears, piercing the Xiu Geyin on the wall. Gein.
Also arriving together was the fighting spirit blade shot by the great knight who had landed smoothly just now. The sharp fighting spirit blade and the hard and fast stone spear together covered all the space for Xiuge Yin to dodge.
Internal latent operation, a large amount of fighting energy was consumed at this moment, and the power of the shadow demon, which had the most flexible and changeable abilities except the smoke demon in the body, was called upon, causing Xiugeyin's body to turn into a pool of black shadow after a burst of distortion.
"Kakakaka, haha!" The stone spear violently broke through the wall, and the subsequent fighting spirit blade easily tore the wall that Xiugeyin had grabbed before like cutting tofu, but for the people who had already turned into pieces, To the shadow sage, these are meaningless.
Covering the wall and ignoring the attacks of the stone spear and fighting spirit blade, Xiugeyin moved into the shadow, and directly followed the huge gap made by the knight in the wall, and disappeared.
"Possession by evil spirits is really a powerful hidden force. The dozens of demons in the body provide this guy with extremely flexible and changeable abilities. With the great knight I have catalyzed now, it is still too difficult to deal with him. Already."
Count Enkai had a panoramic view of everything that happened in the room through the mage's eyes placed around him. The words he murmured seemed to be lamenting the difficulty of Shugeyin's power, but he did not mean to feel troublesome at all.
"Don't go up there. If he launches a sneak attack on you, you won't know how you died. Stay here and let me find him first."
After speaking out to stop the great knight from pursuing Shugein who had turned into a shadow, Marquis Enkai observed the dark room where nothing could be seen due to the broken magic crystal lamp, thinking in his heart. plan.
"Shadow Demon, it is indeed a powerful force, but that unruly demon is not easy to control. Even if it is the Grand Knight's fighting spirit reserve, how long can it support you to use its power?"
"Possession by evil spirits is indeed a powerful hidden force. Without the magic circle outside the mansion that is used to seal the power of demons, this guy's chance of winning cannot be said to be zero. But with my understanding of demons, you will eventually We are already in dire straits.”
"Huh, the damage to the bones caused by the inner dive is really troublesome. I can't fight with him. A large part of the outer skeleton has been broken. If I continue to be affected by his inner dive, my combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced. "
Xiuge has now released his shadow state and turned into a human form. He is hiding at the corner of a staircase and corridor, using the power of a high-level beholder to scan everything around him.
This kind of demon has a strong observation ability, which allows Shugein to ensure that he is not within the observation range of the Mage's Eye.
Taking out the medicine he was carrying, Xiugeyin inserted the needle into his calf, and controlled his body to avoid the life-blood inside the needle.
The fluid is repelled.
Although the potion made by Wang Yu using his own blood is not that powerful in repairing the great knight, it is also very qualified as an emergency medicine for quickly repairing less serious injuries.
Feeling that the fine cracks on the leg bones were slowly being filled and repaired by the active blood entering the body, Xiugeyin nodded with satisfaction.
"Huh, isn't it a little difficult for him? Those members of the Gate of the Abyss are not that easy to deal with, but with the Smoke Demon here, judging from Wang Yu's ability in combat, he should be able to do it."
"I'm really bad at it. Revenge and the current situation. Did I choose revenge after all..."
His thoughts wandered for a few brief moments, and were brought back by Xiugeyin in less than two seconds. Since he had made a decision, he would definitely not regret it.
"Find Enkai, he must be in the mansion, but where."
Alert to the surrounding situation, Xiugeyin made plans for the next action. The room was filled with various magic circles. Only the observation ability of the beholder could detect these things with magic fluctuations.
The limit of his inner potential can only be to use the abilities of two demons at the same time. Choosing the beholder means that there will be serious shortcomings in other aspects. Once the difficult knight finds an opportunity, he may be affected by this. Big loss.
"Yes..." With a plan in mind, Xiugeyin bit open his fingertip with his teeth, letting bright red blood overflow from it, and then smeared the blood on the surrounding walls.
Running, Shugeyin quickly spread his blood throughout the mansion, and a certain demon in his body became feverishly excited because of these things with a strong smell of blood.
Of course, what actually excites this guy the most is the active blood that was just injected into his body, the blood that belonged to Wang Yu.
"Is this guy Wang Yu really a human being? Compared with him, he seems to be nothing more than a monster except that he has a few extra things in his body."
The cracks on the bones that were difficult to repair quickly on their own had been repaired in half while Shugeyin was running, and some of the medicine made from Wang Yu's blood still remained, and these parts were pained by the blood demon in the body. As he drank, his power increased.
Hiding from Count Enkai's observation, Shugeyin smeared the blood in his body everywhere. This behavior seemed inexplicable. What was the point of wasting his blood for no reason.
"Step..." The knight's iron boots stepped on the corridor. He and Count Enkai glanced around. The traces of blood scattered all over the corridor made the knight and Enkai frown together. .
"Is this guy Shugein crazy? What does he want to do?"
Enkai murmured. He didn't know clearly what the reason for Shugen's inexplicable behavior was, but he was very sure that Shuguein must have done it for some purpose.
"Gulu..." There was a movement that was so slight that the knight's sensitive senses could not detect it. Tiny eyeballs popped out from the traces of blood that had not completely dried up, and they turned around in the shadows in the blind corners of the knight's field of vision. , observing him silently.
"found it……"
A smile appeared at the corner of Shugeyin's mouth. In the beholder's field of vision, a small, constantly fluctuating luminous thread appeared on the forehead of the great knight, extending towards a certain direction of the mansion. That was, magic power. Traces left by fluctuations.
Since using the power of the beholder will make you very weak when facing enemies who are also great knights, then you can use the combination of the two demonic powers to directly complete the attack on the enemy hidden by Marquis Enkai without contact. Exploration of the land.
"Tick..." A drop of blood fell from the top of the knight's head. The knight with keen perception would naturally not let this thing that might be Shugeyin's attack fall on him.
With a surge of fighting spirit, the physical fighting spirit exploded and shook the drop of blood, turning it into smaller droplets and spreading around.
Some of the blood fell into places where Shuge did not go to avoid detection by the Mage's Eye.
And above these extremely tiny blood droplets, unusually tiny eyeballs emerged,
After observing the outside world, it collapsed and dissipated because the power contained inside was not enough to support its existence.
But it was enough. The mage's eye floating in the air had the same magic line as the great knight, and the direction pointed by Shugein had been determined by the power of the eye demon and the blood demon.
Based on the two thin lines pointing in the direction, and confirming where the two intersect, Shugeyin, who had done homework on the layout of the mansion in advance, quickly determined where the Marquis of Enkai was hiding.
"Sure enough, he is still the same cunning and vicious guy as I remembered him. He hid really well. I still have about two-thirds of my fighting spirit, which is enough for me to use the power of Shadow Demon to avoid detection and get there."
With a plan in mind, Xiugeyin did not hesitate to use the power of the shadow demon, which consumed extremely vindictive energy. He turned into an imperceptible shadow, passed through the gap between the door and the window, and rushed to the favor he confirmed. The place where Marquis Kai is hiding.
The fighting spirit was constantly being consumed due to the use of the power of the shadow demon to turn into shadow. Within a few minutes, the great knight's abundant fighting spirit reserve dropped by about one-third at this moment, but Xiugeyin also touched the destination. nearby.
"Huh? Something's wrong. This shadow is unnatural. Hurry back!"
The words of Marquis Enkai suddenly rang in the ears of the great knight. During the observation of the mage's eyes, he continuously captured multiple unnatural shadows, approaching his hiding place.
Even if the unnatural shadows at the beginning were a coincidence, if they kept appearing one after another and were close to where he was, it would be very problematic. The Shugein who used the power of the shadow demon was definitely him.
"How did he find out where I am? The only demonic power that he can detect magic is the beholder... Those blood, blood demons and beholder are used together, Shugein, I'm a little bit underestimating you. .”
Marquis Enkai thought about it, activated all the magic circles near where he was, and asked the knight to quickly return to that area.
"It doesn't matter if you come to me, there's no point in fighting with you. You already have a chance to win, right? A researcher who is just a trainee mage will definitely die without a burial place if he is touched by a great knight?"
"Oh, there's nothing wrong with this idea, but it's a pity that your power comes from demons, and I happen to be an expert on demons. I really don't understand these things very well."
Xiugeyin's body transformed from a shadow state into a human form, and he rushed down the stairs. Only one-third of the fighting energy in his body was left, which could no longer support him to continue to use the power of the shadow demon.
Moreover, the area in front is the empty hall of the mansion. The light of the magic crystal lamp makes it bright. He turns into a shadow. Not only does he have nothing to hide there, but he becomes extremely abrupt and conspicuous.
"Kakaka..." The magic circle is running, changing the floor of the hall. The earth and stone bricks rise from the ground, gather together and change their shapes.
A large number of earth element puppets that were not that big emerged from the hall, and they were so densely packed that they almost blocked Shuge Yin's path forward.
At the same time, magical radiance shimmered in every corner of the hall, and scorching fireballs rose rapidly above it, aiming at Xiuge Yin who rushed into the group of earth and stone puppets at this moment.
Shugeyin shuttled dexterously between the earth and stone puppets. The great knight was not only powerful but also powerful, his agility and perception were equally astonishing.
These earth and stone puppets, which have become smaller in size and slightly more agile in movement, are still too slow for Shugein who has the power of a great knight.
To deal with the stone arms, legs and feet that were swept away, Shugein kept moving at a high speed by sliding, squatting, and leaping, and dodged almost all the attacks of the earth and stone puppets.
Rushing into the inner circle of the earth and stone puppets, one step closer to the secret room where Marquis Enkai is hiding in the "non-existent" mezzanine at the top of the hall, and the density of the earth and stone puppets has increased again.
Several earth and stone puppets rushed towards Xiuge Yin in front. Their bodies made of earth elements stuck to each other and formed a wall of earth and stone that pressed towards Xiuge Yin, sealing the space in front of him for shelter.
The great knight's power exploded with all his strength under the blessing of fighting spirit.
The materialized fighting spirit armor was violently thrown forward. The wall of earth and stone was unable to resist the blow of Shugein, and instantly exploded into a pile of rubble.
However, at this moment, several high-level fireballs formed by the magic circle in the corner of the hall were ready and flying towards the center.
The life of the earth and stone puppets is naturally not within Enkai's consideration. These fireballs, together with the surrounding earth and stone puppets, will blow up the Shugein inside them.
"Boom" several high-level fireball techniques collided together. The conflict and collision of fire elements increased the power to a higher level. When the smoke and dust dissipated, only the remains of a large number of earth and stone puppets were left in place, without any traces of Shugein. figure.
"It's not over yet, this guy is really difficult to deal with." Enkai observed everything below with the eyes of the mage. He knew that Xiugeyin would never die so easily.
"Kacha Kacha" From the remains of the earth and stone puppet, a large number of small stones ran out from it, and the combination formed Shuge Yin's body. Although there were some charred scars on the body, there were no fatal injuries.
Just now, Xiugeyin pressed a bunch of earth and stone puppets on his body, and used the power of the stone demon to turn himself into a pile of tiny gravels, hiding directly into the bodies of the earth and stone puppets.
These puppets took most of the impact on Shuge Yin's behalf, and they themselves were only burned to the point of high temperature.
The jet-black blade full of rust and corrosion appeared in Shugeyin's hand as he jumped high, and he slashed towards the ceiling above.
The extremely strong corrosive power ruthlessly cut open the hard protective wall of the secret room, revealing the scene inside. At this time, the great knight had just arrived in the hall.
"I found you..." Shugeyin looked at the panicked Marquis Enkai, who was preparing a space spell in his hand, and cold words came out of his mouth.
Seizing the opening in the secret room, Xiugeyin rolled directly in. Fighting energy burst out on the soles of his feet, he sprinted on the ground, and pounced on Marquis Enkai who was preparing to transmit the spell.
The great knight had just arrived at the hall. Marquis Enkai was just a trainee mage. His knowledge allowed him to use space spells, but his rank meant that he needed a long time to prepare for spell casting.
And the great knight Shugein, who was only five meters away from him, could kill him several times in this time.
"Death!" Xiugeyin roared angrily, and the anger of more than ten years gathered on the long sword in his hand at this moment. The blade of fighting spirit bloomed instantly, and the dazzling sword light shot out of the sky, the blade of fighting spirit.
Marquis Enkai was just in the middle of casting the spell. He couldn't dodge the fighting spirit blade that was shot out at such a high speed, right...
The action seemed to be in fast forward. The spell model in his hand was completed almost in an instant, and the filling of magic also ended at the same time. Marquis Enkai's figure blurred, and he reappeared beside the great knight.
"This is! A strange object, a time-made hourglass?!" Xiugeyin's face darkened, and the killing blow that gathered all his strength was in vain.
Forcing himself to calm down, he immediately realized what happened to Marquis Enkai.
His time was accelerated, and the only one who could do this was the strategic-level rare object recovered by the royal family, the time-made hourglass.
"Is it an accident? I'm sorry. Some people in the royal family think you should die. Although the Blade of Night needs to exist, you will no longer be the leader. Therefore, this rare object can be regarded as their investment in me."
Marquis Enkai looked at Xiuge Yin who jumped down from the secret room again and raised his sword towards this side with a smile, and said.
"You should know very well what the royal family is thinking. Including the arrival of the God of Fear, all of this has been planned. It is an excellent opportunity for cleansing, isn't it?"
"Both you and I are both chess pieces, but your route is leading to death."
Looking coldly at Shougein who raised his sword, Marquis Enkai muttered some strange syllables softly as he spoke.
"..." Xiugeyin didn't reply. He just used his fighting spirit and rushed towards Marquis Enkai who was protected by the great knight behind him.
"Woo!" Then Xiugeyin took a step forward and fell to the ground, letting out a muffled groan. The fighting spirit in his body seemed to be drained out in an instant, violently.
The pain is transmitted from the vortex of fighting energy.
All demonic powers are out of control, and they, at this moment, are destroyed.
"How..." Xiugeyin gritted his teeth and tried his best to activate his inner potential and possess the evil spirit, but he couldn't do it.
Insufficient fighting spirit, injured body, and all the demons going berserk at the same time made him lose control of his body. He didn't understand how these demons could attack at this moment, even though there were no problems before.
"Hmm... It seems like what I thought. The reason why you were able to make these demons obey is that you deceived them. You told them that as long as you die or you kill me, you will let them go free and return to hell. Plane."
"I just told them the truth, Devil's Word, you can't do it, but I can. If you die, they in the body will also die, and you want to let them go. I was the one who made it possible for you to infiltrate. It can’t be done either.”
"Only I, the one who put them into your body, can truly release them."
"You tell me, who will they listen to, me, right?"
Marquis Enkai showed a sincere smile and looked at Xiugeyin who was struggling on the ground but unable to do anything because of the demon's passion in his body. He asked this sentence with mockery.
"Okay, kill him."
Marquis Enkai didn't talk nonsense anymore. He was struggling to survive in front of him, with only anger and unyielding eyes in his eyes. He was disobedient.
It's time to get rid of this hidden danger that has worried him for many years. No matter how good the work is, if it threatens him, he will eradicate it without hesitation.
The great knight stepped forward quickly, raised the long sword in his hand, pointed it at the head of Shuge Yin who could not move, and stabbed it with all his strength.
"Dang!" There was a harsh collision sound. What the sword pierced was not Shugeyin's head, but a luminous transparent shield that could not withstand the power of the great knight and broke immediately.
A tarot card slipped out from the gap in the armor on Shugein's chest, a broken, upright chariot.
Xiugeyin and Marquis Enkai's eyes widened at the same time. They didn't understand when that thing appeared there.
After the shield of the Chariot Tarot card blocked the attack of the great knight for a moment, another shining Tarot card followed the first tarot card and slid out of the Shugein armor, the Star.
Space fluctuations were generated, the long sword was thrust into the air and pierced into the ground, and Shugeyin's figure disappeared as the tarot cards were shattered.
