The battle with the snake god Ige was really beyond Duanmuhuai's expectations.
After all, according to the information in the player forum, Ige is one of the three gods of prophecy, and he is also a snake god. So Duanmu Huai's first impression of it was that of a spell caster who was good at using magic and prophecy.
But when the fight actually started, I realized...this girl was actually into close combat just like me!
I saw Ige holding his hands empty, turning his fingers into claws, and clawing at Duanmuhuai wildly. It was like a Nine-Yin White Bone Claw. If it were an ordinary mortal, just being caught by Iger would probably tear him in half. However, Duanmu Huai was not afraid at all, and clenched his iron fist and blasted directly at Iger. For a moment, the two sides were going back and forth, refusing to give in to each other, and fought in a ball.
"Tear!!"
Ige swung his claws and tore Duanmuhuai's clothes directly, leaving bloody traces on his body. Duanmu Huai, on the other hand, refused to give in and punched out with this claw, hitting Ige directly in the chest.
"boom!"
Following Duanmu Huai's move of Seven Injury Fist, Ige's chest suddenly exploded, scales scattered, and his whole body moved back.
"call……………"
"snort………"
Both sides swayed, then stopped, looking at each other coldly.
I didn't expect that this old ruler would be really difficult to deal with.
Duanmuhuai clenched his fists burning with black flames and stared at Ige. Although he has wrapped his whole body in the black flames of destined death, every time Ig attacks himself, his attributes and HP limit will be weakened due to the effect of the black flames. But Duanmuhuai also had a hard time. As the snake god, Yige's body was full of venom. Duanmuhuai punched him, and even with the protection of the black flame, he was still counterattacked by Yige's venom.
In other words, from the current point of view, the two sides are evenly matched. Duanmuhuai will be poisoned if he hits Yige, and Yige will be cursed by black flames that reduce his attributes.
It's just that Duanmu Huai feels that he is more advantageous. After all, simple poisons can be resisted by physical strength, but the curse of black flame... Hehehe, do you really think that the destined death is so easy to provoke?
In fact, just as Duanmuhuai thought, Ige was also feeling uncomfortable at this moment. Duanmu Huai's punches were extremely powerful, no less powerful than those under him. Every time he was hit by Duanmu Huai's fists, Ige could feel as if his body was being hit by a heavy hammer, and even his bones were smashed. Broken look.
Not only that, the cold black flames on the opponent's body were even weirder. Every time he touched the black flames, Iger felt as if his soul was being burned. Not only that, he also felt that his physical strength was slowly weakening like burning firewood - slowly, but steadily.
Having said that...the truly powerful Old Ones are really difficult to deal with.
Duanmuhuai waved his hand and stared at Ige. In the game, players rarely have the opportunity to face the Old Ones or Outer Gods head-on, because although the players in the game are inquisitors, they are still humans after all. Seeing that the Old One will also drop SAN, and if you accidentally throw a big failure, it will collapse immediately.
Generally speaking, according to the game process, when Igor comes out, most players will choose a SAN value appraisal. If they pass it, they will pass it, but they will lose the SAN. Then they will try to stay away from Ige and then eliminate the snake people instead of provoking Ige like Duanmu Huai did.
But Duanmuhuai is different after all. He is now the God of Destruction and the God of Joy. He has enough ability to compete with Ige, so Duanmuhuai will take the initiative to provoke Ige, fight with him, and at the same time judge Ige's strength. strength. Not to mention, he still has the special title bonus he received in the first place.
[God Killer: Nothing in this world can make you surrender. Even if you are facing a god, you dare to fight with it and kill it (when facing a god, all attributes are increased by 5%, and the resistance to divine spells is increased by 10%. Attack increased by 5%)】
Hmm... This feeling should be similar to that of the evil god's demon.
Duanmuhuai stared at Ige, clenched his fists again, and glanced at the system.
[You see the snake god Ig, you will make a sanity check]
[Sanity check successful]
[Snake God Ig has seen you, and Snake God Ig will make a sanity check]
[Sanity check successful]
This is the first time that an enemy has passed his fear test since Duanmu Huai came to this world.
It seems that the old ruler does still have some ability. According to this view, it is unlikely that he will find trouble with the three outer gods for the time being.
In the world of Cthulhu, there are outer gods, old gods and old rulers.
But in fact, the Old Ones are also outer gods. The reason why they are separated from the outer gods is that they belong to the defeated outer gods.
As can be seen from the name, the old rulers - the rulers of the past, that is to say, they are no longer rulers now.
Cthulhu, who was sealed, and the snake god Ig, who is hiding underground and sleeping in front of most of his people, all belong to the old rulers - of course, if the snake people are prosperous, Cthulhu has not yet been sealed. In this era, they are the outer gods.
In other words, after the power of the outer gods was reduced or sealed, they "fallen" from the outer gods to the rulers of the old days.
As for the Old Gods, they are the gods who are hostile to the Outer Gods for some reasons. They also invented the Old Seal - that disgusting thing that the Outer Gods don't want to touch after seeing it.
In addition, the main function of the old seal is to seal the sleeping rulers of the old days or destroy the portals of the outer gods.
But...it's quite speechless to say.
That is the old god who did not protect mankind.
The gods that humans in this world believe in do not exist in the old gods at all, so what humans in this world believe in are fantasies that do not exist at all. The rest are the outer gods and the old rulers--none of them are good things. Son.
As for the old gods, they basically ignore humans.
Do you think this makes sense?
Even cats are protected by the old gods.
Humans don’t?
Not only is it a cat, look at the snake god Ig in front of you, he is also the patron saint of snakes, and Atrak is the god of spiders... So in this world, the status of humans is not as good as snakes, spiders and cats!
From this point of view, instead of going to church, you might as well raise a cat. As long as you are nice to your master, you might even be favored by Buster, the goddess of cats, and give you some benefits.
This is no more useful than going to church and praying.
Duanmuhuai currently hopes to become the patron saint of humans among the old gods, just like the cat goddess Buster shelters all cats. So strictly speaking, his Tribunal Seal can be considered a type of Old Seal - an Old Seal that only protects humans.
Forget it, that's not the problem now.
Duanmuhuai calmed down and stared at Yige in front of him. The latter's snake eyes also stared at Duanmuhuai coldly. Obviously, after testing, both sides found each other to be difficult enemies to deal with. Next, there is a competition of willpower - however, in this regard, Duanmu Huai has an advantage that Iger cannot match!
Perhaps to Ige, Duanmu Huai is just a strange old god who appears in front of him. After all, it only comes here to protect his snake people, so Ige may not be willing to fight Duanmu Huai here.
But Duanmu Huai was different. As the Grand Inquisitor, he would never let go of any alien god. Therefore, when Ige appeared, Duanmu Huai had already made up his mind to kill it at all costs. However, Iger obviously didn't know this--in battle, misassessing the enemy's determination can be a fatal flaw.
"Drink————!"
Duanmuhuai roared angrily, clenched his fist again and attacked Ige. And when he saw Duanmu Huai attacking him again, Iger's eyes showed a bit of irritability - for it, this was a completely inexplicable battle, and Iger couldn't figure it out even if he broke his head. How on earth did the snake-men clan provoke this inexplicable old god, so that they had to have such a battle.
Not to mention that the opponent's black flames were in a weird form, and a fight would do no good to him... Frankly speaking, Iger wanted to give up and leave. After all, the snake people it wants to protect don't just have a lair here, so long as they win the fight. Now it seems that they still can't win, so there's not much point in staying here.
However, the other party clearly seemed to have no intention of giving up, which made Ige quite annoyed.
Am I really afraid of you?
"hiss-----!"
Facing Duanmuhuai's iron fist, Iger also let out a hiss, then stretched out his claws and grabbed Duanmuhuai's fist.
"boom!"
The two sides collided again. Ige's right hand clenched suddenly, while Duanmu Huai took advantage of the situation and rushed forward without hesitation. He lowered his shoulders and his whole body seemed to turn into a dump truck. Crash into Igo!
"hiss---!!"
Seeing that the opponent did not retreat but continued to charge towards him, Ige was also furious. He saw it grabbing Duanmu Huai's right fist with one hand, and raising the other hand high, and pointed its sharp claws at Duanmu Huai. Huai's head was grabbed hard.
If Ige were a human, he would definitely shout at this time - this move will definitely make your brain burst out and your teeth burst out!
"Drink ah ah ah ah ah!!!"
But Duanmuhuai still had no intention of dodge. On the contrary, he continued to move forward without hesitation and rushed towards Ige.
What's going on with this damn bastard?
Seeing this, Ige was also shocked. It originally wanted to use this move to force the opponent to retreat, and then he could take the opportunity to leave this ghost place. However, what Iger didn't expect was that the other party would rather get hurt than fight with him?
Do I have such a big grudge against you? Usually the old gods and the old rulers don’t have such a big hatred! I didn’t raid your hometown, does that matter?
Although a series of thoughts flashed through Iger's mind, in the blink of an eye, Duanmuhuai had already rushed in front of him, and Iger's claws hit Duanmuhuai hard on the head.
"boom!!"
Although this blow made Duanmuhuai tremble suddenly, he did not stop, but continued forward, directly hitting Ige's chest with his shoulder!
"Boom!!!"
At this moment, Iger felt a powerful impact coming from his chest. The cold black flames seemed to turn into a cold air that penetrated into the bone marrow, directly rushing into it, making Iger feel as if his limbs were all at this moment. It completely lost its strength, and even its soul seemed to be frozen by this strange flame!
Because of this, Ige released his right paw holding Duanmuhuai's fist, and at the same time, he was pushed up into the air by Duanmuhuai. At this moment, the only thing Ige could see was Duanmuhuai's face with a ferocious smile.
"Kou Jie, Kou Jie, Kou Jie, Kou Jie, Kou Jie, watch your move, Iger, I will kill you to ashes! Go to hell!"
As he spoke, Duanmuhuai clenched his fists and aimed at the snake god in front of him, and then...
"Ola-o-la-o-la-o-la————-!!!!"
Countless iron fists suddenly blasted out, hitting Ige's unprotected body directly. This time, it could no longer resist the bombardment of Duanmuhuai. It only felt the pain everywhere in its body as if it was about to explode. At this moment, Iger finally felt fear, which he had not experienced for a long time... No, maybe it was it. For the first time since becoming the Old One, I felt the fear of death and destruction!
Gotta get out of here! Must leave! Otherwise you will be killed!
However, that's where Igo's thoughts ended.
The next moment——time stopped.
At the same time, Duanmu Huai punched out again.
“Euler——————!!!”
Accompanied by roars and roars, Duanmu Huai's right arm shot forward like a battering ram, directly piercing the chest of the snake god Ige, completely penetrating its body.
Then, time started flowing again.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu""
Feeling the pain in his chest, Ige screamed miserably, but it was meaningless. At the same time, black flames burst out from its open mouth, eyes, ears, and even wounds. In the blink of an eye, Completely enveloping Ige. After a while, when Duanmu Huai put down his hand again, there was only a pile of black ash in front of him that no one could tell what it was.
"this…………………"
Looking at the scene in front of them, Lorena and Mary were also stunned. They didn't expect Duanmu Huai to be so cruel. He even tried to take a blow from the other party, but also wanted to go up and beat the other party to death...
“——————!!”
However, before they could react, suddenly, a shrill scream suddenly sounded and spread throughout the cave.
"Hey? What, what's going on?"
The sound was so miserable, as if something was being tortured, and it also startled Lorena and Mary.
"Don't worry, it seems these snake people are dead."
Duanmu Huai said calmly, as if to confirm what he said, and then the girls saw the cocoons hanging on the ceiling of the temple split open, and then one by one the snake men jumped out. At first, the girls thought that these snake men were trying to avenge their gods, and they immediately became vigilant. However, next, a scene that they did not expect happened.
I saw that the snake men who crawled out from their cocoons after hibernation did not even look at the intruders in the temple. On the contrary, they held their heads tightly and rolled on the spot as if in great pain. Then, these snake men were seen. As if going crazy, he hit the altar directly——and then died completely like this.
"Hey? What's going on? Mr. Duanmu?"
Seeing these snake people scrambling to die, Mary was also shocked. She had read in books that lemmings would jump into the sea without hesitation and commit suicide under the leadership of their companions, but why did these snake people commit suicide?
"It's simple. The gods they believe in are dead, so they are almost dead."
Duanmuhuai shrugged his shoulders. The gods protected by races are like this. Once a god dies, the race it protects will also be hit by the pain of the god before his death. Although this is not intentional, the pain when a god dies is also It's not something ordinary creatures can resist. Therefore, those snake people who can't stand it will naturally go crazy and die when their SAN value is cleared.
In just a moment, the original screams gradually disappeared. Duanmuhuai also summoned a bunch of puppets and ordered them to immediately observe the surroundings to see if any fish had slipped through the net. At this time Lorena and Mary also came to him.
"Excellent, Lord Knight, you are not injured."
"Yeah, I was really shocked when I saw Mr. Duanmu fighting that monster just now..."
"Don't worry."
Duanmu Huai waved his hand.
"It's just a minor injury, it won't kill anyone."
Moreover, he is not without gains.
Thinking of this, Duanmuhuai looked at the system panel in front of him again.
[It was detected that the player killed the snake god Ig]
[Players obtain echoes of the old rulers]
[Players obtain the special skill "Omen of Eppolieta"]
[The Omen of Eppolieta: The remnant of the mysterious truth, a part of divinity, a secret technique that can summon part of your limbs into the form of the Old Ones in a short period of time]
"Um……………"
Looking at the system introduction in front of him, Duanmu Huai fell into deep thought.
What will this become?
