Chapter 145: The Second Stage of the Crystallized Elder
“Kill me!”
The crystal old man wailed in pain, and Xia Yu was secretly shocked. Why did this old man lose control of himself when he met him?
If he turns around and runs now, will the old man chase him, or will he just return to his original appearance and wait for him to challenge him again?
However, Xia Yu was just thinking about it. After the player dies, the BOSS will recover to a certain stage. That is the gameplay. If he turns around and runs away now, the BOSS will definitely chase him.
So fighting is inevitable, and he will also give corresponding respect to an old man who would rather die than succumb to the abyss.
Seeing Xia Yu attacking again, the crystal ball in the crystal old man's hand flashed a dark purple light, and then a strong wind blew, and a large number of dark purple crystal arrows attacked instantly.
Xia Yu could easily see the attack trajectory of these crystal arrows, so he just turned his body sideways and dodged the crystal arrows by a hair's breadth.
However, before he could go forward to chase, the crystal old man seemed to have anticipated that this attack would have no effect, and the crystal arrow was only used to cover up the next magic.
The next moment, countless crystal hail sparkling with ice-blue light suddenly filled the sky. This was the unique magic of the Crystal Old Man, which could continuously shoot out small soul blocks from the air and had extremely strong penetrating power.
In an instant, crystalline hail fell from the sky like a shining meteor falling in the dark night.
Xia Yu, who had been completely enveloped, did not sit still and wait for death. He waved his hand and took out a great shield of the Lothric Knight from the space. This was the great shield of the famous Lothric Knight.
Not only is there a holy emblem painted on the shield, but it has also been blessed by the high priest with a miracle, so this large shield has a high magic attribute and a damage reduction rate.
In other words, this large shield has strong magic resistance.
Crackling!
Crystalline hail fell like raindrops, and Xia Yu, hiding under Luo Qi's big shield, took the opportunity to recover his consumed energy.
Because he had the green flower ring picked up from the undead settlement, he only took a short breath to replenish his consumed energy.
While the dense crystal hail was still there, Xia Yu sneaked up. On the other side, the crystal old man was still controlling the crystal hail in the sky, trying to drown the enemy in front of him.
Xia Yu touched the crystal old man and raised his shield, ignoring the crystal hail that was hitting him.
Then, magic power burst out from his body, just like the energy of a Super Saiyan transformation. The blue magic power directly appeared on his body surface, and the crystalline hail that hit him was destroyed before it got close to him.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, veins bulged on Xia Yu's arms, and he swung his enchanted double swords down.
clang clang——!
All sounds between heaven and earth seemed to be blocked, leaving only two sword sounds. The X-shaped sword light compressed to the extreme flashed by, and before the crystal old man could prepare himself, the sword light had arrived.
The extreme sword energy passed through the body of the crystal old man, and then the sword energy continued to move forward. The explosive magic power directly turned the terrain into half hot and half icy.
The landform no longer resembled its original appearance, and the dilapidated and broken city was cut by the X-shaped sword energy, leaving gullies with residual magic.
The city and the zombies hiding inside were reduced to ruins.
Snap~
The crystal ball in the hands of the Crystallized Old Man turned into four petals with smooth cuts and fell to the ground powerlessly. However, the Crystallized Old Man, who should have been divided into four petals along with the crystal ball, suddenly burst out with dirty black mist.
The black mist stuck the crystal old man, who should have been divided into four petals, together. His eyes, which originally showed struggle, had now turned completely blood red.
"Shit! Phase 2!"
Looking at the crystallized old man who was filled with the aura of the abyss, Xia Yu stepped back and put away his swords with a grim expression. It turned out that the game could only be used as a reference. The crystallized old man in the game did not have such a ferocious second stage.
This was already his second time fighting against an enemy infected by the abyss, but compared to Guda, the Ash Judge who was corroded by human pus, the Crystallized Old Man did not have disgusting black pus erupting from his body.
Perhaps this is a different manifestation of the abyss?
The type of infection that the Crystal Elder was infected with by the Abyss was erosion of the mind, while the type of infection that Guda was infected with by the Abyss was human pus.
Hmm... maybe the origin of the Human Pus is also related to the Demon King of Lothric. After all, the Human Pus only appeared in the city of Lothric.
But there is no definite answer to these things in the game. It all depends on the soul scientist's own thinking and guessing. His guess cannot be said to be completely correct, but it cannot be said to be completely wrong either.
The ambiguous story speculation is the worldview of the soul world.
…
Before Xia Yu could think for too long, the pervasive black fog of the abyss came over him like an overwhelming force. Seeing this, Xia Yu took out his previous trophy, the Black Knight's Greatsword.
The only thing that can stand against the abyss is fire.
The Black Knight's Greatsword used to fight against Chaos Demons must have been stained with the Chaos Demon's fire, so he chose this weapon.
Xia Yu shook the oversized sword in his hand and nodded with satisfaction. The weight was just right. Let him tell the Crystal Old Man how a real wizard should fight!
"Tangle!"
Xia Yu silently recited the spell, stretched out his hand and brushed it across the black knight's sword. In an instant, the fire of the spell wrapped around it.
The fire of spells and the fire of chaos have the same origin, and the demons use the spells of the fire of chaos.
Therefore, the moment the fire of spell wrapped around the Black Knight's sword, this sword that had defeated the Chaos Demon was instantly activated.
A flame, whether it was chaos or spell, rose into the sky, and the light on the sword became brighter and brighter, like a scorching sun.
Xia Yu held a huge sword in his hand, jumped forward suddenly, rolled over, and then made a vertical slash. The blazing flames chopped straight towards the crystal old man infected by the abyss.
The fierce flames turned into a torrent, like the first light of dawn tearing apart the darkness that refused to leave, rolling forward unstoppable! The spreading abyss black fog, like the first snow poured with boiling water, quickly melted under the flames.
The originally aggressive black fog of the abyss was quickly evaporated under the flames of its own nemesis, revealing the crystallized old man who had been completely soaked in it.
Losing his crystal ball does not mean that the old man has no power to fight. He pulled out an elegant and noble crystal rapier.
However, facing Xia Yu's powerful sword moves, this stabbing sword instead caused the Crystal Old Man to be blocked at every turn, and he was unable to use his swordsmanship at all.
Xia Yu exerted force with both arms, and he performed various sword techniques with the super-large sword with great vigor. The chaotic flame on the sword also burned everything around it.
The square, which originally looked like a crystal forest, now became even more sparkling under the burning.
Bang!
In a moment of carelessness, Xia Yu directly knocked the Crystal Old Man's rapier away. He was reluctant to destroy this weapon, so he could only use his cleverness to knock it away.
The eroded old crystal man had no intention of turning around and running away. Instead, he threw himself into the arms of Xia Yu. He wanted to make the enemy in front of him also contaminated by the abyss.
But how could Xia Yu, who already knew the old man's intentions, reveal his flaws?
The next moment, the surging flames stirred up an endless gale, and the surrounding air rippled. The scorching flames suddenly condensed from the sword, turning into a giant sword condensed from flames that reached the sky.
"cut!"
Xia Yu never liked to give names to his moves, so this time he just let out a low roar and then chopped down suddenly!
