Volume 1 Jade Chapter 23: Nowhere to Escape
Chen Lun stripped off the helmet of a heavily armored guard, revealing the person inside.
It was a deformed face covered with tumors, hideous and ugly.
He was still breathing faintly, and even though he was seriously injured, he was not dead.
"Sure enough, they are all weirdos created by the Red Apple Church using diluted mysterious substances..."
Chen Lun said secretly.
Like the Rot Hounds, which are creatures of the underworld, the Red Apple Church also experiments on living people.
The monster created has infinite strength and tenacious vitality.
It can be said that this kind of weirdo is no longer considered a human being, but should be considered a supernatural creature.
Without self-thinking and personality, one is like a beast.
Chen Lun suddenly raised his foot and stepped down, crushing the heads of the two monsters.
[Kill the Red Apple Church's heavy armor guard and gain 100 experience points] *2
Turning around and looking at the place where the fat monk was before, it was empty.
Chen Lun chuckled.
"Can you escape?"
"Escape! As long as I escape to the shelter, I won't die!"
Under the purple moon night, Stulton ran wildly on the deserted street, panting.
He ran out the back door of the churchyard and headed straight for the asylum in the town center.
Along the way, he kept praying to the golden goblet in his arms.
But even though the blood in the cup was almost spilled, there was still no response.
At this moment, a wild cat crossed the street and almost tripped Stulton.
"damn it!"
He cursed angrily and continued running forward.
But he suddenly discovered that more wild cats appeared in the middle of the road ahead.
A pair of green eyes stared at him, making his heart almost stop.
Ta-ta-ta-ta…
The sound of boots stepping on the cobblestone road came slowly and clearly from behind.
Stulton turned sharply.
I saw the cloaked man who appeared out of nowhere and was slowly approaching me.
He shouted, whether to give himself courage or to attract other people's attention.
Immediately, Fatty took out the crossbow, aimed it at Chen Lun and pulled the trigger.
There was clearly no arrow loaded in the crossbow, and he did not draw the string, but a scarlet arrow flew out of the crossbow, leaving a straight red line and flew towards Chen Lun.
call out--!!
Chen Lun became alert when he took out the crossbow from Stulton, but when the crossbow arrow shot at him, he still failed to react in time.
The crossbow arrow is too fast!
Chen Lun could only turn sideways suddenly to avoid the fatal part, allowing the crossbow arrow to just grazed his arm.
The red line brushed against the scales, creating a spark and then disappeared into the air behind Chen Lun.
There was a small cut on his arm, but strangely, not a drop of blood came out.
[You are attacked by [C-rank Monster Greedy Tongue], HP -12]
[You are in a state of extreme hunger, and your health limit is temporarily reduced by 23]
Suddenly, a strong feeling of hunger arose.
Chen Lun felt weak and seemed to have to have a big meal right away.
Even if there was a live cow, he would tear it apart and eat it alive.
The wound on the arm began to worsen, and the surrounding flesh and blood seemed to be bitten by an invisible big mouth and disappeared without a trace.
Fortunately, there was not much mysterious power attached to the wound, and the disappearance of flesh and blood soon stopped.
It was as if the invisible big mouth had quietly left.
Chen Lun endured the pain as he watched this scene, and became more alert to the crossbow-like [weird creature], guarding against Stulton's continued shooting.
But after the fat monk pulled the trigger once, he collapsed to the ground as if exhausted, breathing heavily as if he was short of oxygen .
The crossbow and the golden goblet fell to the side, and blood slowly flowed out of the goblet.
Chen Lun secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this.
"Well... He is just an ordinary man. The cost of using [Weird Items] is too high. He can't bear it a second time."
His thoughts flashed through his mind quickly, and he rushed towards Stulton.
But at this moment, the blood spilled on the ground suddenly boiled and melted into Stulton's mouth and nose like a hundred rivers flowing into the river.
“Ugh… Ugh!!”
Stulton's whole body was twitching, as if he was in unimaginable pain.
call!
His body suddenly leaped up and pounced on Chen Lun, who was the first to arrive.
Clang! Swish—La! !
Five pitch-black claws scratched across Chen Lun's raised arm, creating sparks with the scales.
"Sinner! How dare you attack the Red Apple Church!"
The voice that came out of Stulton's mouth changed, like another person, old and deep.
Veins were exposed on his face, only the whites of his eyes were left, and his teeth were bared, revealing a ferocious expression.
"What's there to be afraid of..."
Chen Lun kicked him away.
"I will also dig up the graves in your church and burn it down!"
"heresy!!"
The possessed Stulton no longer looked like an ordinary person. He pounced again, waving his claws like a monster.
During the battle, Chen Lun discovered that the opponent's strength and agility had been forcibly increased, making him very difficult to deal with.
laugh--!!
The sharp claws scratched the ground, sparks flew, and several deep claw marks were left.
Chen Lun narrowly avoided the claw attack and stretched out his hands.
The snake-like arms wrapped around the opponent's arms, making its most dangerous claws unable to move.
Stulton frowned, feeling something was wrong.
Immediately afterwards, Chen Lun's snake-like arms stirred violently, and the sharp dark golden scales cut through, instantly tearing off the claws.
Phew!
The fat monk took a few steps back, raised his broken arm that was bleeding, and looked grim.
“What kind of extraordinary ability is this…?
Damn you rat man! Whose grave did you dig? Or some kind of alchemical potion?"
Looking at this guy constantly imagining things, Chen Lun laughed secretly.
"Wait until you die, and then you'll know if you go down and ask in person."
"How dare you blaspheme Rose!?"
Stulton shouted angrily.
“Ahhhh!!”
He began to scream wildly, and the flesh on his face peeled off on the spot. In a moment, he became a bloody and skinless animal head.
“How shameless.”
Chen Lun made some comments.
"die!!"
Stulton attacked again, his speed increasing dramatically.
The beast head bit hard, and the air exploded with a loud noise.
Chen Lun bent his neck to avoid the fatal attack, turned around and punched him in the face.
BANG!!
Stulton's body tilted.
Chen Lun raised his body and thrust his elbow again, which fell from top to bottom like a war hammer, hitting the back of his head.
BANG!!!
Stulton fell face first, shattering the stone slab and sinking deep into it.
His body twitched a few times and then stopped moving.
Chen Lun stared down at the corpse. He heard the crackling sound of bones bursting and an inexplicable sense of crisis arose.
He dodged back suddenly.
The next moment after he jumped, Stulton's body swelled up instantly and then exploded like a bomb!
Boom! !
Blood rained down, along with bones and viscera fragments, ending the battle on the desolate street.
Fortunately, Chen Lun dodged quickly enough and was not affected by the explosion.
Otherwise, with this power comparable to that of real explosives, you would still be injured.
Gurgle...
Stulton's beast head, which had lost its human appearance, rolled to Chen Lun's feet.
His only remaining eye moved and locked onto the figure of the cloaked man, his eyes filled with anger and a hint of madness.
"You scum of the History and Ritual Society, this battle is not a defeat for our religion, but a prelude to the trial of you sinners."
"Oh, then come find me quickly..."
Chen Lun kicked the head with the toe of his boot.
Then he looked down at the eyeball and met its gaze.
"I'll be waiting for you in Emerald Town. If you dare come, I'll smash your brains to the ground."
"damn you……"
The beast head wanted to say something, but was suddenly kicked away.
