Chapter 284 [Lavinia's Dead Mirror]
[Frost Moon Swordsman] Carlo's possession by the devil was expected and inevitable.
Previously in the desert, Guy had introduced to Ryan in detail the "evil sword" [Da Qian Qi Ye], as well as how he had been possessed by the devil.
Guy said that swordsman is a profession with the strongest desire for killing.
Anyone who claims to be the "best swordsman in the world" is extremely conceited and believes that his own will can tame the evil sword.
This is also the reason why Guy himself was infected.
Ninety-nine percent of swordsmen in the world must have two major pursuits: famous swords and kendo.
And that "evil sword" perfectly meets these two points.
It is a magical weapon and contains the supreme sword art!
The evil sword [Da Qian Qi Ye] is said to be the sword of the "Eight-Armed Ksitigarbha" among the seventy-two divine generals. It has killed millions of lives and filled the air with resentment.
A truly magical weapon.
All magical weapons must have spirits.
(Spirit: It is not an independent will, but a bit like "artistic conception", a mysterious feeling that the weapon and the user are in harmony and integration - from Guy's words.)
The other magical weapons that have been passed down from ancient times have lost their “spirits” because they are too old.
But this evil sword is an exception.
This evil sword appears almost every few decades, and each time it appears it will cause a massacre.
Every time a living being was slaughtered, the "spirit" on the sword would be nurtured and preserved, as if it had never stopped.
The owner of this evil sword before Guy was the most famous swordsman in the southern part of the Heed Empire ninety years ago, "Okawa Ryoma". After that top swordsman was possessed by the devil, he became invincible and killed no less than 100,000 people in his lifetime, and finally disappeared...
The previous owner was a duke-level collector from the Theed royal family two hundred years ago. He used this sword to kill more than three thousand people in his dukedom, including his spouse, children, and servants. No one survived, and he finally committed suicide with the sword...
The previous owner was the legendary [Sword Master] Jon Raynor three hundred years ago...
Recorded owners date back thousands of years.
But every owner had a bad ending.
…
Ryan once asked Guy why he asserted that this [Frost Moon Swordsman] Carlo must be possessed by a demon.
Guy said that no swordsman could resist the temptation of this evil sword.
Because the "spirit" of this sword contains a mysterious "supreme sword art".
In Guy's words, even though the "Way of the Sword" that he has comprehended now is unmatched in the world, it is still not even one tenth of the sword art contained in that evil sword.
Once a swordsman gets it, he will have the feeling of "with a sword in hand, the world is mine".
It's like taking the "Divine Power Crystal", which allows the swordsman to see the feeling of a higher level of power.
It is the sword-fighting insights of the god "Eight-Armed Ksitigarbha" that have been passed down from ancient times to the present, as well as the sword-fighting insights of the sword's successive owners.
If you get this sword, you will get the "Supreme Sword Art", which is the fatal attraction for swordsmen, especially top swordsmen.
However, the "spirit" in this sword exists for killing.
Millions of souls had died under his sword, and he had even slain ancient demons at the hands of gods. The resentment, evil spirit, and death energy in them were so strong that even a person with a strong will could not withstand the impact of this negative mental force.
Therefore, it is an "evil sword".
Although they know it is evil, no one can give up the feeling of "reaching the sky in one step".
Therefore, it was only a matter of time before Carlo became possessed by the sword after he used it for the first time.
Back then, Guy massacred an entire city in this state.
…
Ryan looked up and saw the top floor of the mechanical city.
At this moment, the swordsman Carlo's eyes were red, and the fighting spirit rising from his body was no longer the light blue color of the wind system, but a red color like blood steaming. What was even more terrifying was that the phantom of "Magic Jie·Garuda" behind him was now red, and the originally majestic god became extremely weird.
The source of the weirdness came from the big black knife in his hand.
The huge black knife, which was originally as crystal clear as jade, now exudes an enchanting sharp luster, surrounded by a thick red blood mist.
The "spirit" of this magical weapon has been activated.
Carlo had a wicked smile on his face. Looking at the Great Witch Priest Mafa who had beaten him back step by step, his laughter became sinister and terrifying: "Tsk tsk, there are so many masters to kill. My sword is already thirsty for food..."
The moment Carlo chose to become a demon, the Glorious King Kipling not far away was not surprised at all, but seemed to be prepared.
At this time, several red-robed wizards behind him suddenly took out some bottles and jars and smashed them on the ground. It turned out to be the blood essence of some creature.
The blood essence was exposed to the air, and a thick bloody smell spread in the air. And with the naked eye, wisps of blood were actually absorbed by the big black knife.
With every absorption, the scarlet mist on the knife became thicker. At the same time, Carlo showed a happy expression, and the injuries on his body caused by Bazel and his men were slowly healing...
This is another miraculous effect of this "evil sword" that can be called a magic weapon - [Drinking Blood]!
It can absorb the essence and blood of gods, restore its own fighting spirit and injuries, and fight until death.
This means that as long as there are people for him to kill on the battlefield, his fighting spirit will never be exhausted and his injuries will heal automatically.
Ryan then realized that Kipling had already taken Carlo's possession into account in the battle.
Now that the mechanical city has been sealed off and Carlo has been possessed by a demon, he is an invincible fighting machine. His limited will will make him kill his "enemy" first.
At this moment, bloody energy enveloped the entire Duke's Mansion, and the red figure holding the sword suddenly disappeared from the spot.
The next moment, Carlo appeared hundreds of meters away, raised his hand and slashed at Mafa.
There was a crisp metallic sound.
The expression of the Great Shaman of Mafa did not change at all, and he raised his hand to block the sword that was coming towards him.
But after taking the sword, he immediately frowned.
Because it was obvious that the "sword intent" of this sword was completely different from the previous one.
This is not Carlo's own power at all.
This contact made people see waves of demonic faces howling in the bloody atmosphere, as if countless souls were struggling in the sea of blood, unable to be reborn forever...
Mafa shouted, "Be careful, this sword can affect people's minds."
Although he took the sword, the sword energy did not weaken. The ten-meter-long crescent-shaped sword energy slashed out hundreds of meters in the blink of an eye, overturning the vine armor army in the distance, and then rushed into the crowd of the Knights of Light, cutting dozens of people into two pieces!
Carlo's figure disappeared again, like a gust of wind.
Wherever that bloody figure passed, there would be limbs and heads flying everywhere, and every time he killed someone, he would become stronger...
Seeing this, King Kipling's eyes were filled with indifference. This was originally his backup plan, and he even counted his own knight corps as "blood food" to feed the evil sword.
There are still hundreds of thousands of people in the city, enough to feed an "evil sword" that can kill everyone.
According to this situation, Carlo will absorb the essence of the evil sword and reach the extreme extraordinary power that this world can withstand.
At that time, no one could do anything to him, but he could kill anyone.
Once the evil sword drinks blood, no one can stop it until Carlo kills everyone here.
In the end, Kipling thought that under the restrictions of the barrier, the people from Black Dragon City would be severely damaged or even wiped out.
Rattan Armor Army?
Flying dragon?
Haha...by then they will all be killed by the sword.
When Ryan saw this, he finally understood: This was one of the reasons why .
pity.
Not to mention that this barrier couldn't trap Ryan and the others, and this evil sword was not uncontrollable.
There is still one person who can suppress this evil sword!
…
Carlo was possessed by a demon, blood shot up into the sky, and there was a huge noise.
At this moment, a figure quickly climbed up the stairs.
Whoosh~whoosh~whoosh…
He did not walk up the winding street on the top floor, but jumped up on the outer wall of the steel building. With each step, the figure rushed dozens of meters.
Before the person arrived, the waterfall of sword energy behind him already made people feel the overwhelming sword intent.
This "righteous" sword intent was like a rainstorm washing away the polluted air, instantly sweeping away the bloody atmosphere in the Duke's Mansion.
It turned out to be Guy who had been looking for this evil sword for a long time!
The sudden appearance of the swordsmanship master caused everyone in the Duke's Mansion to stop.
No one from Black Dragon City was surprised because Ryan had informed them in advance, but the people from Glory City were quite surprised.
Because at this time, as soon as Guy appeared, he immediately started fighting with the possessed Carlo.
Clang, clang, clang, clang...
The sound of swords clashing was as dense as raindrops.
Guy's impenetrable sword entangled Carlo so that he couldn't escape, and didn't give him a chance to kill someone and recover his fighting spirit!
To others, this seems unbelievable.
No one expected that a random stranger could actually stop Carlo, who was almost invincible at the moment.
The key point is... not only was Guy's mind not affected by the evil sword, his sword intent of "evil cannot prevail over good" actually forced the sea of blood behind Carlo to not wreak havoc at all, and it was suppressed little by little!
Carlo was originally a swordsman with superb swordsmanship. If he used his own strength, he could suppress Guy, whose body had not yet fully recovered.
Unfortunately, one of the “Ten Legends” has become a sword slave controlled by the sword, using the “Sword of Killing Intent”.
If there is anyone in this world who knows this sword best, it must be Guy.
Evil cannot prevail over good. Guy's sword power is what he learned from being possessed by the devil, and it is specifically designed to target all evil spirits!
He was well aware of the bloodthirsty nature of the [Great Thousand Dark Night], and he deliberately forced Carlo to a place with few people to prevent him from having a chance to suck his blood.
The two fought further and further away, and in the blink of an eye they were out of the main battlefield of the Duke's Mansion.
The devil suddenly appeared on the battlefield, but peace was restored in an instant.
Before a "big devil" is formed, Guy has strangled it in its infancy. Kipling, the instigator in the distance, has a very ugly expression on his face.
He never expected that someone would suddenly appear and ruin his plan.
At this time, the high-level warriors of Black Dragon City, such as the Great Witch Priest of Mafa, did not give them any chance and attacked them fiercely again.
The high-ranking warriors of Glory City looked ashen.
…
The battle in the Valentine Duke's Mansion had already entered a fierce stage. But in fact, except for those top fighters who were still struggling to hold on, the Glory City side had actually begun to show signs of one-sided defeat.
"Black Wind Territory" is a wasteland hunter city after all. Although there are less than 100,000 troops in the mechanical city, there are still more than 300,000 territory residents and temporary residents in the city.
Originally, once mobilized, at least another 200,000 combat forces could be gathered. In a life-and-death battle, there might still be some chance.
But because of the previous broadcast...
Oh no!
It was the broadcast that was still being played in the territory on a loop. After it stated that the expedition war launched by "Black Dragon City" had nothing to do with ordinary people, the free hunters had no interest in joining the war.
The wounded soldiers who were carried down from the upper battlefield of the mechanical city with broken arms and legs screamed in agony, which made people panic. The exaggerated movement in the upper part of the mechanical city, everyone knew that it was the top extraordinary people fighting fiercely...
Unless you are stupid, no one would dare to step forward at this time.
…
On the streets leading to the upper floors of the mechanical city, troops continued to surge upwards. Gradually, the attack turned into defense, and the brave and combative Coleman warriors rushed from the Duke's Mansion to the knight camps on the second and third floors with unstoppable force.
"Commander, the second floor intersection has been lost. Those barbarians are too powerful..."
"The York Street intersection was also lost..."
"All the brothers of the Eighth Regiment are dead. What should we do now?"
"Shut up! Don't you see that His Majesty the King is fighting to the death? Charge..."
“…”
There was defeat everywhere and the fighting was extremely brutal.
A group of Coleman vine armor warriors with an average level of more than three are fighting against a legion of knights with an average level of less than two. The combat power of the two is not at the same level at all.
This is still a huge gap that marks the watershed for high-level transcendence.
What's more, there is an equipment gap.
They collapsed at the first charge and scattered at the first touch. The hundred-man regiment of the Rattan Armor Army could easily break through the thousand-man knight regiment of the Glorious City.
Every time they charge, they die. Now the knights of the Glory City are afraid of charging.
Everyone knows that if you rush forward, you will die.
The morale of the army naturally plummeted...
The mood of panic spread rapidly among the people of Glory City.
…
The possessed Carlo Guy was restrained, and although the outcome could not be determined for a while, this was definitely bad news for the Glorious City.
A legendary fighter has been restrained, not to mention the most powerful swordsman. This means that the remaining top-level extraordinary fighters will be under greater pressure.
As time went by, the balance of victory had completely tilted towards their Black Dragon City.
Ryan guarded Wu Duo and fought off several groups of guys who wanted to launch a sneak attack.
The flying dragon army was indeed invincible. She commanded such a group of big guys to fly around in the sky and provide support everywhere. The flying dragons spitted out phlegm, and even high-level extraordinary people were instantly reduced to ashes...
At this time, there were almost no enemies who would attack Udo. Ryan was a little bored and looked up at the fierce battlefield in the Duke's Mansion.
There, the fifth-level transcendents have also begun to suffer casualties. If this continues, the battle will probably be over soon.
Now the defeat of Glory City is certain, and they are restricted by the barrier, so they cannot escape.
Either fight or die.
Good.
But things are not that simple. The City of Glory has been operating in the Alcolon Mountains for decades, and its foundation is definitely not as simple as it seems.
He had previously learned from Master Kavo that there was a magical weapon in the treasure house of the City of Glory - [Lavinia's Undead Mirror].
Seeing this, Ryan raised his eyebrows and muttered to himself: "Kipling was able to use Carlo's demonic possession into the battle, so he will probably use that thing too..."
However, once that thing is used, it can be really "crazy".
…
Ryan was just wondering what kind of mirror it was that would make Master Kavo come here in person, and the next second, King Kipling did not "disappoint" him.
Knowing that the defeat was irreversible, Kipling Winster, standing on the top floor of the Mechanical City, took out a silver mirror with white bones carved on the back.
At this moment, a long sigh of disappointment was heard.
"Why……"
Master Kavo, who had never appeared, finally showed up.
