Chapter 120: Pale Knight (Part 2)
"ah!"
In the underground hall, the monster sensed the fatal threat after its protective armor was broken by a solar ray cannon fired by Old Saen, revealing its ghostly form.
She saw old Saan, whose body was burned beyond recognition, raise the sun emblem again and scream at the top of his lungs.
The pale magic power visible to the naked eye turned into a halo and spread all around.
It was like a sonic bomb exploding, shattering all the sarcophagi on all four sides of the underground hall.
The piercing scream, with its chilling dark magic, blasted into everyone's mind, especially confusing Old Jiang for a moment, and promptly interrupted his increasingly excessive little LSP drama in his head.
It felt like being hit in the face with a stick.
Several golden talismans on his body burned out at the same time, and the Su Yi Spirit Shield condensed by the Su Yi Sutra was instantly broken. Blood flowed from Lao Jiang's ears, nostrils, and eyes.
My mind was in even greater confusion.
The chip's alarm sounded so piercing that Lao Jiang's vision went dark.
This was still touched by the scream.
He was not the monster's main target.
One AOE damage completely broke the defense of Lao Jiang, who was as weak as a chicken.
The wolf demon can still resist.
It summoned the strong wind and turned it into wind blades, bombarding the ghost. Miraculously, Hanhan was not affected at all. He roared, grabbed the battering ram, and smashed it at the ghost in front of him.
But ghosts have no substance.
The stupid sledgehammer danced fiercely, but could only smash the air.
In less than a few seconds, the pale strange flame completely wrapped up Hanhan, burning all his clothes and everything else, and the thing was also flying around in the fire.
But the naked man didn't react at all. He continued to yell and wave his hammer wildly, acting extremely brave.
"Buzz"
The noisy sound of electrical surges echoed in Lao Jiang's mind, and the personality and behavioral training passively stimulated by the chip made him sober up quickly.
Lao Jiang touched the blood under his nose and cursed harshly.
He ran to old Saen using his hands and feet, frowned after just one look, and old Saen's arms were almost burnt.
It even smells like barbecue.
The tough old man was enduring great pain, leaning against the broken stone wall, raising his hands with difficulty in the rubble, intending to use the Sun Emblem to fire another shot at the ghost.
But considering his current situation.
If he shot again, he estimated that he would be burned to death. Or, it could be said that Old Sane had prepared himself mentally before coming here this time, and he didn't even think about going back alive.
What a ruthless person!
"You are really determined to die."
Jiang Xia snatched the burning emblem from old Saen's hand.
Tossing it up and down in his hands, he said to the old hunter:
"That woman is your lover? The relationship between you two is really complicated. Is Helya Master Fleming's child or yours?
Is your last name Wang?"
"Shut up!"
Old Sarn said painfully:
"Give me the emblem. You are not a bloodline person, so you cannot use it..."
"Who are you looking down on?"
Lao Jiang waved his hands, stood up shakily, and imitated Sann, clasping his left hand and pointing the emblem forward.
"Hanhan, get out of the way!"
He shouted.
Hanhan reacted quickly in combat mode, rolling to the left.
Jiang Xia also mobilized the spiritual power in his body at the same time, and without thinking twice, he injected all the spiritual energy into the badge in his hand.
"Shua"
The scorching golden fire instantly ignited the bionic material of his left arm.
But prostheses cannot feel pain.
Lao Jiang laughed, grabbed a bottle of Soul Gathering Pill with his right hand, and poured the whole thing into his mouth.
The cursor in his left eye's field of vision kept moving, locking onto the ghost that was flashing towards him like a phantom, when the distance between the two was less than five meters.
The sun emblem, filled with spiritual power, was activated silently.
"Hey, beautiful lady, come on."
"boom"
In the basement hall, scattered beams of sunlight exploded from Jiang Xia's left hand.
Like a shotgun firing, it instantly covered all the space in front of it, dyeing the entire underground hall into a pure golden sea of fire.
The pale ghost screamed, her figure dissipating like mist, trying to avoid the attack by flashing her ghost.
But the silly monster Liu Hui at the back felt blessed at this moment.
It waved its claws, causing a strong wind to form green chains, which were then clasped around the ghost on the left and right.
Monsters are not good at casting spells.
But this wind control is Liu Hui's magical power as a demon. It is not as effective as the authentic magic, but it is flexible and easy to use, and can be used at will.
It only took the ghost a second to break free from the wind chains.
But there was no way she could avoid the shot in front of her.
The golden light flowed like water, making the monster seem to be thrown into a flaming hell. In just a moment, it completely submerged her. More miserable screams blasted in all directions without distinguishing between friend and foe.
It's simply the magic of the legendary banshee's wailing.
In the desperate moment, the wailing was even louder this time. Even the wolf demon rolled on the ground with his hands covering his ears. The magical Hanhan also showed pain on his face. He grabbed the burnt sledgehammer, hugged his head, and squatted down with his hands covering his ears.
Old Jiang, who faced the attack head-on, was in an even worse situation.
Sound waves work on both the mental and physical levels.
The sea of consciousness that had just been opened up in his mind, the glowing world of thought began to sway, and he was hit by the sound waves and smashed hard against the wall behind him.
In theory.
This ghost's fatal blow can completely shatter Lao Jiang's soul.
After all, he is just a mortal who hasn't even reached the stage of practicing Qi.
But Jiang Xia's end was not as miserable as expected. He fell to the ground, and the black silk armor on his right hand was emitting a warm light.
Apparently, at the moment of being attacked just now, Lao Jiang used the large amount of spiritual energy released by the Spirit Gathering Pill to activate this magic weapon.
It was made by Chu Qiao, a genius from Mo Shuang Mountain, and "delivered" to Jiang Xia by him personally. It was named "Sixteen Leaves of Green Silk", a name that fits Brother Chu's literary and artistic complex that has nowhere to go and overflows from his heart.
There are two modes: attack and defense.
The attack was the Qingsi Sword Net that Liu Ruyi used that night.
Defense is the sixteen-leaf spirit shield that Jiang Xia has activated now.
The scattered yellow leaves, like an illusion, shroud the old river. The leaves are very delicate, just like the real ones, like the fallen leaves in autumn.
The circles wrapped around Lao Jiang are really artistic.
It’s not just good-looking, either.
The dispersal of leaves is just an illusion of spiritual power.
Its real function is all-round protection, not only protecting the body but also the soul.
A magic weapon is a magic weapon.
Even though it is only a low-grade magic weapon, its effect is still amazing.
Lao Jiang endured the monster's banshee's wailing head-on, but he felt dizzy and his ears and nostrils were bleeding again, and his spiritual world was in a mess.
He was injured and in a very bad state.
But not fatal.
“Ah!”
The ghost with its whole body burning was like a rag on fire, being burned by the scorching flames every minute and every second, as if it was coated with a layer of gold.
But in her original form, she was hit head-on by the Sun Emblem, a sacred relic that was designed to target ghost-type monsters, putting her in a desperate situation.
In less than two seconds, one third of her body was burned.
Due to the monster's ferocious destructive instinct, she did not choose to retreat at this moment. Instead, she howled, stretched out her burning hands, and pounced on Jiang Xia again.
Lao Jiang was now lying under the rubble, looking very miserable. The spiritual power in his body had been drained, and it was not enough to throw out a Su Yi spiritual shield. But apart from spiritual power, Lao Jiang had other means.
"Ma'am, you are very irritable when you wake up."
He looked at the burning ghost rushing towards him and rudely spat a mouthful of bloody saliva to the side.
The chip in the brain issued a command, and the left arm prosthesis was immediately raised to an extremely precise angle, full of the cold beauty of an industrial product.
The bionic material on the prosthesis had been completely burned in the previous shot, and the prosthesis now showed its most primitive posture.
The silver-grey metal was shaped into a streamlined appearance, like a human arm, with a very sci-fi joint disc, and a part of the outer iron shell had been melted.
But it does not affect the work.
The five fingers made entirely of steel were spread forward, and the four high-energy capacitors in the arms entered overclocking operation. All the energy was poured into the remote discharge module in less than a second.
A faint blue light appeared on the arm.
Strands of bursting arcs of electricity danced on Jiang Xia's five fingers like tiny lightning.
"You may be in love with me, but alas, I have no interest in old women."
A rogue smile appeared on his bloodstained face, with his sharp white teeth showing. At the moment when the ghost pounced on him, tens of thousands of megaamperes of electricity shot out from his fingertips.
Like a halberd thrown by a god, blue lightning illuminated the messy underground hall, and the moment the electric arc pierced through the air, it hit the burning ghost.
This pure energy attack, like an oncoming war hammer, hit the ghost's body, knocking her back and causing her burning spirit to dissipate faster.
"boom"
Muffled gunshots rang out from the side of Jiangxia.
Old Saan endured the pain, used his burnt arm to grab an elegant dark red shotgun that he took out from somewhere, and fired a shot at the ghost in front of him.
This thing is amazing.
The first bullet caused the underground hall to shake violently as it was fired, and the burning body of the ghost was shattered into pieces amid the crisp sound of the stone ground collapsing.
Fragmented.
The flames burning on its body dissipated in the air, but the lord-level monster was still not dead. Instead, in its last flash, it dragged its tattered ghost body and howled as it pounced towards Jiang Xia again.
Such a close-range attack made it impossible for Old Saan to pull the trigger of the gun in his hand. With the power of the holy weapon in his hand, the next shot would kill the Ghost Knight.
But it will also turn Jiangxia into a pile of minced meat.
Be careful when using a weapon to kill a rat.
The Pale Knight seemed to hate Jiang Xia so much that the hatred flashing in his black eyes made Jiang Xia feel as if a basin of water was poured on him on a cold day, chilling him to the core.
Hatred is indeed steady.
But here’s the thing…
Jiang Xia is not a T!
“Stay away from the boss!!!”
Just as Jiang Xia was about to be grabbed by the neck by the ghost, the whistling sound of breaking wind finally rang out amid Liu Hui's scream, and a silver halo spun and hit Jiang Xia in front of him.
Another bald naked man jumped over, roaring.
Hanhan swung his big weapon like a heavy artillery falling to the ground, shattering the stone slabs and standing between Jiang Xia and the ghost. He reached out and grabbed his new weapon.
It was the double-edged spirit-infused battle axe that the pale knight had held in his hand.
This hideous thing requires an ordinary person to hold it with both hands, but Hanhan held it with one hand and chopped the ghost head-on with the axe.
This thing is a spirit-possessed weapon.
Although Hanhan had been crippled by someone before and lost all his spiritual practice, leaving only this good body, Hanhan still knows how to perform basic operations such as mobilizing spiritual energy.
As he chopped with the axe, a milky white light covered the blade of the axe. Ignoring the illusion of the ghost, he chopped the monster in front of him with an axe.
"Buzz"
A violent wind also blew up in the basement hall, and the stupid monster, who was tortured by both enemies and friends, finally finished "reading the bar".
Liu Hui jumped up and raised her paws high.
The blue wind twisted at high speed in its claws like a Rasengan.
It was compressed and shaped quickly, and a moment later, with a roar from the wolf demon, it took a step forward and threw the ball like a javelin thrower.
The spear condensed by the blue whirlwind...
No.
This would be called Dragonlance or something more appropriate.
The horrifying sharp thing flew through the air and landed accurately, piercing Ghost's chest from behind and pinning her to a higher stone wall in the underground hall.
It was like a giant's heavy punch.
The dragon spear shaped like a hurricane pushed the ghost all the way back with the howl of the stupid monster, and directly shattered the ground between the underground hall and the surface.
The remaining aftermath rushed out of the ground and easily destroyed more than half of the crumbling castle. The gathered power of the strong wind broke through the thick ground, allowing the sunlight above to shine into the cave through the broken hole.
In the shattered underground that looked like it had been hit by an earthquake, green wind blades were still erupting.
Liu Hui obviously used some secret technique.
The moment this hurricane dragon spear, which was like a natural disaster, was thrown out, the wolf demon fell to the ground as if it had been drained dry.
Sticking out tongue, panting.
“Boss… I used my innate magical power for you… I couldn’t use the wind control for a long time… I suffered heavy losses, you have to pay me more!
At least forgive my debt for half a year!"
Liu Hui's tired voice rang out over the communication line, and Jiang Xia, who was protected in the corner by the naked man holding up the collapsed stone wall, twitched his mouth.
He really didn't know how to evaluate this honest monster.
How did the elders of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect train it?
"I will forgive your debt for one year. You will be awarded the title of Outstanding Employee of the Month. You will also receive generous bonuses and allowances."
Jiang Xia replied.
After a few breaths, as the shaking of the ground subsided, he stood up again with the help of Hanhan.
He glanced at the naked Hanhan, and his eyes fell on Hanhan's crotch.
Wow, what an astonishing length.
My own Hanhan is really well-funded.
Noticing Jiang Xia's gaze, Hanhan felt a little shy. He turned his body, covered his crotch, ran over, picked up the long hood that Liu Hui had dropped, and wrapped it around his waist.
He picked up the silver double-edged axe again, protected Jiang Xia, and walked towards the broken pit in front of him.
Old Sarn was already in the pit illuminated by the ray of sunlight.
This witch hunter with a story was half-kneeling there, and the ray of sunlight shining into the dark underground also enveloped him with a literary atmosphere.
And before him was a ghostly monster that was dissipating in flames.
Jiang Xia was very familiar with that kind of flame.
That is the fire when the monster is about to die.
They will be reduced to precious ashes by this fire.
Perhaps at the moment of death, the monster seemed to regain its sanity. Jiang Xia stood at the edge of the pit and saw the monster reaching out and touching old Saen's cheek.
Because of the distance, I couldn't hear clearly what they were saying, but in the last moment, the ghost of the very feminine lady had most of her body covered in flames.
In the flames, she stood up and kissed old Sarn gently on the corner of his mouth.
He turned his head again.
Her beautiful face was full of apology and she nodded to Jiang Xia as if to apologize.
The next moment, the fire lit up.
Everything disappeared, leaving only a pile of ashes in front of old Saan, and smoke and dust flying all over the sky. The dust with spots of light veil swirled around old Saan.
It means that everything that just happened is true.
Jiang Xia also saw it. Old Sane was kneeling there in agony, holding in his arms the beautiful woman who had disappeared. At this moment, this iron-blooded old man was as melancholy and painful as an innocent boy who had lost his beloved.
There were even faint tears in the eyes of this old man who had lost everything.
Tsk tsk.
Is this a magical version of Ghost?
Really good at playing.
Really exquisite.
