"Haah...haah...haah..."
The Headless Horseman used too many curse skills on Darkness, which consumed too much magic power. It was mentally weak and panting heavily.
I don’t understand!
I don’t understand it at all!
what happened?
What is going on in this town?
It’s so strange!
The great mage of the red demon clan with a brain problem who can release explosive magic very powerfully and very quickly, the high priest who can instantly purify his most proud and best curse skills, and the high priest who has endured countless curses and purifications. But the Knight of the Cross didn't suffer any pain and even enjoyed it.
Who are these people? !
"So, are you really newbies? Isn't it too strange?!!!"
I couldn't help but roar loudly.
But there was a tremor in the angry voice that couldn't be concealed.
It must be in a panic too.
Although it is not impossible to understand the confusion of the Headless Horseman, except for the goddess Aqua, everyone present is a true novice to it.
Aqua sarcastically said, "What, what? Isn't this enough? It's too weak. It's so funny!"
After hearing her words, the Dullahan's hand pointing at Aqua trembled slightly, and he couldn't help but roared at her: "You are so weird, your magic power is exaggerated, a normal person can release it so many times Purification magic?!"
It got it a little wrong.
Aqua is no ordinary high priest, she is a part-time high priest of the Water Goddess!
"Pfft--, why are you scared now? It's so funny!"
Aqua lightly covered her mouth and continued to mock.
Although she is not good at her job as a goddess, her taunting skills are top-notch. She can make Sato Kazuma furious every time, and the Headless Horseman, who is not good at words, is naturally no exception.
"How dare you underestimate me! If I get serious, I can kill all the residents of this town!"
It raised its head in its hand and glared at them fiercely, full of threats.
But I always feel like I'm just trying to hold on inside Se Li.
Aqua was not happy, she curled her lips and said: "They are just undead, how dare you be so arrogant!"
After saying that, a lot of divine power gathered in his hands.
"Hmph, a novice adventurer like you will never be able to hurt me!" The Headless Horseman was full of confidence.
"Watch the trick! Purify!"
"ah!!!"
To my surprise, it didn't flash at all.
The hit Headless Horseman howled and rolled back and forth on the ground, as if extinguishing the flames on his body. He probably didn't expect that this skill would cause such huge pain, and this skill also caused his mount Be completely purified.
"Ah, his horse is gone."
Xiao Lin couldn't help but complain.
Aqua looked at the Headless Horseman who stood up again in the smoke, and said in a panic: "Hey, Xiaolin, my skills don't seem to work anymore!"
"Yeah... indeed."
The Idiot Goddess's skills are so powerful that she almost made the Bone King ascend to heaven with just one shot. And the Headless Horseman just seems to be screaming in pain, so that doesn't mean it's more powerful than the Bone King, right?
Probably because the attributes are not completely restrained.
….
"No, no, no, no matter how you look at it, it's very effective. It screamed "yeah". "
Sato Kazuma said strangely from the side.
Aqua said anxiously: "It's completely different, okay! Kazuma, you have that knife that can kill people in one go, take it out quickly and kill it!"
"No, no, no, the Headless Horseman is dead a long time ago, and the knife has no effect on it, okay?"
Xiao Lin advised her not to do that.
This is the limitation of [Kill with One Hit]. It is very powerful in the ordinary world, but once it comes to the realm of death, it is at a loss.
Nothing can be done.
It's not a Zanpakutō after all.
In the field, the Headless Horseman is extremely troubled.
It stared closely at Xiao Lin and others, and once again questioned the soul: "You, you, you, you...are you really novice adventurers?!"
"Take the move! Holy purification!"
Aqua didn't give it a chance to explain, and magic descended on it again.
"Ahhhhhh!!!"
The Headless Horseman's cries were even more pitiful than before.
But apart from looking miserable, there were no injuries at all. After a brief roll, he stood up again.
This time, it was really angry.
Cautiously, he slowly approached Xiao Lin and the others, exuding an aura as terrifying as the abyss.
"Oops, it really doesn't work!"
"What, what should I do?"
"Is that the end of it?"
"Haah-haah-"
Aqua's purification skill couldn't cause substantial damage, Megumin's explosion magic failed to penetrate the enemy's breastplate, Sato Kazuma's [one-hit kill] had no effect, and Darkness' attack failed to hit. It will only generate electricity there.
Suddenly, the four of them turned back together.
"——Xiao Lin (Senior), use your invincible Liu Zi (Miss) to think of a solution!" x4
...Ah, ah?
Although I understand that I have cultivated an image of a reliable team leader for a long time, why do the four of you always have an indescribable sense of comedy when you talk about it together?
It's a pity that Liu Zi couldn't take action this time.
In the past, the enemies had their heads easily removed by Liu Zi and died, but the Headless Horseman removed his own head in advance, leaving Liu Zi with nothing to do.
It's yours, Headless Horseman.
"However, it's not impossible."
As he spoke, Xiaolin suddenly took action, and a shining magic burst out from his right hand, pointing at the Headless Horseman and shouting: "steal——!"
Sato Kazuma's eyes lit up.
"That's right! And this one too!"
Too many things happened just now, and he forgot about the skill that can steal the enemy's weapons. Although it may not change the status quo, he still has to give it a try anyway!
However--
"As expected, it still doesn't work..."
Xiao Lin grabbed his empty hands with a look of regret on his face.
The Headless Horseman said disdainfully: "Humph, because the level gap between the two sides is too big, your skills are completely ineffective against me."
As expected of one of the cadres of the Demon King's Army.
He has worked hard to improve his level, but the gap between them is still huge.
It seems that we will have to work harder in the future.
"Hmph, hey, you look a little different from the others, but you are not afraid at all to me who is already alert!" The Headless Horseman loudly belittled Xiao Lin, as if to embolden himself.
….
But the person who was belittled smiled and looked harmless.
Looking at the blue sky, he said to the Headless Horseman: "Well, the weather is really nice today. It would be great if we could have a water gun fight. Mr. Headless Horseman, do you like playing with water?"
"Haah...what did you say all of a sudden?"
Probably the Headless Horseman couldn't understand Xiaolin's out-of-the-box thinking at this time.
But Xiao Lin didn't speak. He just suddenly held the index and middle fingers of his left hand together in the shape of a gun, and shouted an onomatopoeia.
"——biu!"
A stream of water shoots from the fingertips towards the Headless Horseman.
"X-Xiaolin-senpai?!"
Sato Kazuma screamed in surprise. He thought Kobayashi would have some good way to turn the tide of the battle, but he didn't expect it was just a basic water flow magic.
When facing a cadre of the Demon King's Army, no matter how you look at it, it seems ridiculous, and it may even anger the other party.
However, it was such a ridiculous small flow of water that made the Headless Horseman move towards him in fright.
Jump to the side, fearing that your body will get soaked in water.
"W-what are you doing all of a sudden?! You don't think this small stream of water has an effect on me!"
the Headless Horseman roared.
But Sato Kazuma's clever little mind discovered a blind spot, and he excitedly shouted to the magicians in the distance: "That is the weakness! The Headless Horseman is afraid of water!"
"That's it."
Xiao Lin raised his lips, looked at the Headless Horseman with malice, and said with a bad smile: "Mr. Headless Horseman, I ask you again, do you like to play with water? Biu! biu! biu!"
The water gun kept shooting at the Headless Horseman, forcing him to dodge.
"You, you... are such a despicable person!"
"Thanks for the compliment."
He was not ashamed but proud. He made pistols with both hands and kept firing water guns at the Headless Horseman. Other magicians followed suit, shooting clear water from all directions.
As the amount of water flow increases, it becomes more and more difficult for the Headless Horseman to dodge. In the stalemate, it will definitely be the one who loses miserably in the end.
After thinking about it, I already had the idea of escape.
However--
"Don't even think about it."
There was a flash of purple light, and while it was dodging the oncoming water, Xiao Lin's figure instantly appeared on its side and rear and struck boldly.
The Headless Horseman hurriedly turned around to block, and the big sword and the long sword collided in mid-air, sparks bursting out.
"Hey, a sneak attack is too much!"
"Alas, haven't Mr. Headless Horseman ever heard of a righteous assault?"
Xiaolin flashed back and forth around it.
The weapons continued to collide in mid-air, forming an effective suppression. However, the Headless Horseman could dodge in time every time. It was very troublesome for the head in the sky to have an overview of the whole situation.
Shout to your companions in the distance.
"Sato-kun!"
"learn!"
Sato Kazuma raised his long bow and fired at the Headless Horseman.
——Sniper!
Generally speaking, ordinary arrows cannot harm it, but it exposed its own weakness of no resistance to water, coupled with the weakness of being unable to dodge in mid-air, resulting in Sato and Sato, who had learned attribute arrows before. It was really shot down with a water arrow.
"Hey Hey Hey--"
Sato Kazuma picked up the head of the Headless Horseman who had an arrow in his forehead. The sinister and hateful smile on his face made the Headless Horseman feel bad. For a while, he couldn't figure out which of them was the devil.
….
"In that case——"
The Headless Horseman tried to make a final counterattack, and Xiaolin also took the opportunity when its defense was negligent to insert a long sword containing high-quality water attributes into its chest.
"How, how could...?!"
"I told you not to succeed."
While Xiaolin increased the water attribute output, he shouted to the goddess who was still playing happily: "Aqua, you did it!"
"I've been waiting for a long time!"
Aqua also looked at the Headless Horseman with bad intentions. If it weren't for the sacred power that was constantly gathering in her body, would Kobayashi doubt that she was really the goddess of water?
"I'll throw it!"
"——Holy purification!"
As Sato Kazuma turned over the Headless Horseman's head, Aqua poured huge divine power into the Headless Horseman's body, and was completely purified after a brief struggle.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!"
The Headless Horseman roared and disappeared into the air.
…
After a short silence.
"Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh!!!" xn
"done!!!"
"We succeeded!!!"
"To be able to defeat the Headless Horseman or something like that is unimaginable!"
The adventurers cheered.
The entrance to the town turned into a sea of excitement.
After successfully defeating a powerful enemy, Xiao Lin was not excited at all and shook his sword in disappointment.
no way.
Just like RPG games, no matter how difficult the boss is, once you know its weaknesses, you will defeat it easily. Defeating the enemy by relying on attribute restraint will make you feel no sense of accomplishment.
This is also a common problem with this type of game.
Sato Kazuma asked curiously: "Senior Kobayashi, you don't seem too happy that the Headless Horseman was defeated?"
"Well, how should I put it...I feel sorry for Mr. Headless Horseman."
It didn't do anything wrong.
I originally followed the Demon King's order to investigate the Novice Village, thinking that the adventurers here were just a group of novices, so I wanted to leave them alone. I never expected that Megumin would be blown up by Megumin's explosion magic every day, so she had to leave the castle. It came out to give a warning, but even though it had done nothing wrong, it was still punished.
"Poor Headless Horseman, may there be no red demons and stupid goddesses in heaven, n...Aqua!"
"Don't say such horrible things, Kobayashi-senpai!"
Sato Kazuma could already imagine the torture the Headless Horseman would have if he met Aqua again in heaven.
"But I will make good use of your bounty."
In a daze, Xiao Lin seemed to hear the Headless Horseman's thanks.
——I thank you!
