Volume 2: The Church of Light Chapter 255: The Ability of the Wood King
"good."
Xu Shen nodded.
Then they saw a little elf that had stopped flying on Lou Haiyin's shoulder suddenly approaching, first circling around Xia Jingxiang, and spitting out some saliva from its devilish little mouth.
The saliva stuck to Xia Jingxiang's body, making Xia Jingxiang's own breath much weaker.
Then.
The elf flew sleekly in front of Xu Shen, but seemed to be flying too close, so it braked hastily, hesitated for a moment, and then circled around Xu Shen and spit out saliva.
After doing this, it quickly shrank back behind Lou Haiyin.
When Lou Haiyin heard the elves whispering in his ears, he couldn't help but look at Xu Shen, and then gently comforted the ferocious elf on his shoulder.
Xia Jingxiang couldn't see the elf, she only saw Lou Haiyin's actions. Her eyes moved slightly, but she didn't say much.
After concealing his breath, Xu Shen did not stay any longer and took the two of them into the abandoned residential area.
The three of them escaped into the ruins, their vision penetrating layers of buildings. The elves surrounding Lou Haiyin dispersed and searched everywhere, and soon some of them returned.
Chattering, he pointed the direction to Lou Haiyin.
Lou Haiyin nodded and was about to tell Xu Shen when she saw Xu Shen walking in the direction the elf pointed. She was stunned, then thought of Xu Shen's terrifying perception, smiled bitterly in her heart, and quickly followed.
Following the route pointed by the elf, everyone went straight forward. Not long after, they saw the Wooden King standing on the roof of a real building, looking around.
Xu Shen stopped immediately and hid with the two of them behind a tree.
Only from a deeper level of the Xu world can one see through the Xu trees.
Not long after , a figure suddenly came quietly from another place, stepped on the ruins in the void, and came to the floor to meet them.
The man was wearing a black robe and a mask. He talked to the Wood King for a few words before taking off his hat.
Xu Shen saw a strange young man with a fair complexion and a cold expression.
"Can you hear what they are saying?" Xu Shen asked Lou Haiyin.
Lou Haiyin whispered, "I'll ask the elf to find out."
The elf beside her suddenly flew over.
"Be careful, don't alert the enemy." Xu Shen said.
Lou Haiyin nodded slightly, and the elf that flew out lowered its figure, shuttled through the ruins and woods, slowly approached the other party, and eavesdropped carefully.
Although Xu Shen could see and hear things in the deep world of ruins, his vision and hearing were within normal ranges, and he simply ignored the barriers of the world of ruins.
Therefore, this kind of long-distance monitoring... unless he lets Mo Wei come forward.
But Mo Wei is not a particularly secretive existence, and if one has a high level of mental strength, he can still be detected.
A moment later, Xu Shen saw Mu Wang handing a box to the man in black robe.
After a few more words, he turned and left.
The elf hiding nearby quickly turned back and whispered in Lou Haiyin's ear.
After listening carefully, Lou Haiyin said to Xu Shen, "They were handing over something. The man in black robe was from the inner city and seemed to be his leader. He didn't listen carefully to the specific content of the conversation."
Having said that, she rolled her eyes at the playful elf.
The elf felt a little aggrieved, but its hideous and ugly appearance made its grievance seem very gloomy.
Xu Shen's eyes moved slightly, and the time was almost the same as he calculated.
Looking at the Wood King who was leaving in another direction, Xu Shen thought for a moment and said to Lou Haiyin, "Follow the man in black robe. Don't lose him. We will meet later."
Lou Haiyin asked doubtfully, "You want to go?"
Xu Shen didn't answer, but took Xia Jingxiang away.
This reaction made Lou Haiyin realize that he shouldn't ask too many questions.
She immediately ordered the elf to carefully follow the man in black robe.
The playful and indecisive elf was also scolded by Lou Haiyin and sneaked away again.
…
…
whoosh!
Mu Wang's figure quickly shuttled through the floors of the dilapidated community.
The buildings in reality did not pose any obstacle to his body. Recalling his previous humility, he snorted in his heart. After finishing the things here, he would also apply to be transferred to the inner city.
Whoever wants to stay in this damn place can stay there.
puff!
Just as Mu Wang was thinking, there was a sudden sound of breaking wind.
A flying needle came instantly and smashed the blocking leaf into pieces.
Mu Wang was suddenly awakened from his thoughts, his hair stood on end, and he activated his ability almost subconsciously.
With a loud bang.
The flying needle that was shot towards his forehead suddenly turned when it was half a meter away from him, changed its trajectory, bent to the other side, and hit the ground.
King Mu suddenly raised his head, looked in the direction where the flying needle came from, and shouted, "Who!"
whoosh!
A few more flying needles shot over.
This time, King Mu was prepared. He allowed the flying needles to approach, and with his surrounding power, the trajectory of the flying needles changed instantly and scattered in all directions.
There seems to be an invisible energy shield around its body.
A figure walked out from behind the tree, it was Xu Shen.
All previous attacks were ineffective, making Xu Shen realize that there was no way to solve the problem without showing up.
"It's you?!"
When King Mu saw Xu Shen's face, he was stunned for a moment, and then became a little angry. How dare this guy follow him and attack him? !
Previously, Xu Shen killed six leaders of the association in one breath, which made him furious, but he kept Xu Shen because he considered that he still had value to use. Unexpectedly, this guy became more and more daring and even dared to ambush him!
"You are simply tired of living!"
"Perhaps."
Xu Shen looked calm as he slowly walked towards Mu Wang: "Maybe I'm still not used to taking orders from others, so I just need to be the boss myself."
"You want my place?"
King Mu was so angry at Xu Shen's words that he laughed coldly, "It depends on whether you have the ability to do it. Don't think that you can challenge me just because you can deal with those crooked people. My previous tolerance of you was purely a waste of waste."
"I've known for a long time that you are at the binary limit, and it's been many years, but unfortunately, you don't have the courage to attack the king. In the final analysis, you are just a coward." Xu Shen said.
The Wood King sneered, "How many people in the entire Termite City can reach the limit of the second state? Why should I pursue such an illusory thing and risk my life? This is not cowardice, but knowing the current situation and knowing when to advance and retreat!"
Xu Shen said softly, "The black-robed man who communicated with you earlier is from the upper echelons of the inner city, right? From the Moonlight Religion?"
King Mu narrowed his eyes and said, "Since you have seen it, you still dare to attack me? Let's not talk about whether you can win. Even if you win, do you think you can replace me?"
"Why not?"
Xu Shen approached as he spoke: "All they need is an obedient dog. As long as the dog can guard the house, do you care what breed it is? On the other hand, if it can't guard the house, no matter how good the breed is, it will be disposed of."
"You want to be this dog, but you are not worthy!" Mu Wang sneered. He felt that Xu Shen's words were harsh, but he knew he could not refute them.
However, he knew that sooner or later he would break free from the dog chain around his neck.
But now, before he could break free, Xu Shen couldn't wait to grab it, which made him feel ridiculous and ironic.
"I really can't argue with you."
Xu Shen smiled and said, "After all, you have been trained to be too obedient."
"Shut up!"
Mu Wang was too lazy to talk any more. He suddenly took out a pistol from his pocket and shot at Xu Shen.
Although the Ruins-Breaking Spear cannot threaten the second state, it may be able to force out Xu Shen's abilities.
His ability would be more effective at close range, but when he was chatting nonsense with Xu Shen earlier, he saw Xu Shen was also close, so he was cautious and decided to test it out first.
Bullets were fired one after another, Xu Shen's figure swayed slightly, a demon mask appeared on his face, and the trajectory of the bullets could be clearly seen.
He knew what the Wood King was afraid of, so he would not use his abilities to resist.
Seeing Xu Shen's Ghost Moon Mask, King Mu's expression changed, his eyes became more serious, and he said, "It turns out that I was able to get out in the first place thanks to the Jiang family, humph!"
"Anyway, it's not up to you." Xu Shen said.
His figure is getting closer.
The Wooden King was slowly retreating.
But when Xu Shen's speed was increasing, Mu Wang suddenly sneered, dropped his gun and drew his sword, and instead of retreating, he advanced and suddenly rushed towards Xu Shen.
Even though he could see that Xu Shen's abilities could only be used in close combat, he believed that his abilities were stronger!
As for the perception ability exposed by Xu Shen in the meeting, he did not take it seriously. When Xu Shen had killed 6 commanders in a row before, his body movements and speed could not be summarized by the perception system.
"Um?!"
As they approached, the expressions of both of them changed slightly.
Xu Shen felt an invisible force field in front of Mu Wang, pulling him in. His body involuntarily wanted to revolve around it, and his steps were a little out of control.
As for his ability to defeat the powerful with the small, it was blocked by the invisible force field and could not penetrate.
Even the abilities seemed to be swirling around the Wood King.
However, King Mu felt that his ability seemed to be bitten by something and suddenly weakened a little. Although it was not obvious, it was an unprecedented experience.
Bang!
Xu Shen drew his sword instantly and slashed down with the double sword. The violent force slashed on the force field around Mu Wang, but the force changed direction instantly, causing Xu Shen's body to tilt. The sword tip slashed on the ground, leaving Xu Shen's side exposed.
King Mu immediately rushed over angrily, trying to cut Xu Shen in half.
But the next moment, Xu Shen's figure moved backwards in a strange posture, as if something was carrying his body and flying backwards.
He narrowly avoided the knife.
It was the Xu lock that pulled Xu Shen away.
After keeping some distance, Xu Shen stared at the Wooden King in front of him.
The leader of Termite City, who serves as the Light Chaser, is indeed not a simple person.
This ability... is very strange.
“It seems that you are only this level…” King Mu looked at Xu Shen, who had a serious face, and sneered: “Although I am easy to talk to in the guild on weekdays, that’s because I am too lazy to bother with you guys. Even if all the leaders in the guild attack at the same time, I can solve it quickly…”
"Don't think you can underestimate the Two State just because you killed six commanders."
Mu Wang strode towards Xu Shen with a knife in hand.
Apart from long-range probing, his ability to collide in head-on combat has already surpassed Xu Shen. Although there are still some things about Xu Shen that he cannot see through, it is not a big deal.
Approaching quickly.
suddenly.
Mu Wang's eyes went dark, and a strange voice sounded: "Welcome to our home."
Mu Wang was stunned and looked around.
There was endless darkness before his eyes. Something above his head emitted light, and a long table appeared before him.
Across the table, four figures emerged.
A family of four.
Parents and siblings.
"Now you are a member of our family. We are now conducting a family voting for this month. Whoever is the strongest will be a burden!" Xia Jingxiang's cold voice sounded.
"?"
Mu Wang was puzzled. What kind of weird logic was this?
Who is strong and who is a burden?
Did you get it wrong?
And what the hell is this place?
etc.
Mu Wang reacted quickly and realized that the person in front of him should be Xu Shen's companion.
This is... an ability attack!
Mu Wang's face darkened. He found that he had a strong urge to raise his hand to vote, and the target was himself.
But he could feel that if he was voted the most...something terrible would happen.
"You little girl, you're looking for death!"
The Wood King's eyes became ferocious and cold.
He watched as the family of four across from him raised their hands and pointed at him.
The Wood King suddenly activated his ability.
Pi!
Yes, that's his ability.
He builds a circle with himself, and any attack coming at him will be repelled by this "circle" and blocked outside.
This was the case with Xu Shen’s flying needles and sword slashes.
Even in a battlefield filled with gunfire and tens of thousands of people, his abilities are enough to save his life and keep him safe.
At this moment, his ability was activated by this strange family vote in front of him.
In an instant, the fingers pointing at him were suddenly twisted and blocked by something.
Then all the fingers were turned to the other side and could not be pointed at him.
That's right.
Everything that comes directly in his way will be removed, or its trajectory and direction will be changed.
In close combat, the enemy's attacks will be deflected by him, and he is the only one who can attack.
"I don't know what will happen if I get the most votes, but you are the burden!!"
The Wood King roared.
Pi is driven to its limit.
All the fingers pointing towards me were forcibly pushed away and pointed to the other side.
But in this family vote, you must choose one of the two or abstain from voting.
Xia Jingxiang's face changed. After her ability awakened, she thought her ability was invincible.
But... the sight was blocked by this strange ability.
The vote could actually be transferred!
If she can’t choose Mu Wang, it means she will choose herself!
"Can't!!"
Xia Jingxiang's face changed in shock and she screamed. Her brother raised his hands and chose to abstain from voting.
Then it was the mother's turn, who also chose to raise her hands and abstain from voting.
Xia Jingxiang gritted her teeth and pointed her finger at the Wood King with all her strength.
The same was true of her father beside her. His previously gentle and kind face now looked a little ferocious.
But my father's finger still changed direction as the value of pi changed.
In the end, she had to ask her father to abstain from voting as well.
She was the only one left, she gritted her teeth and pointed her finger at the Wood King.
She had no way out. Once she chose to abstain from voting, the vote that the Wood King pointed at her would judge her as a burden.
If it is a burden, it will disappear!
However, no matter how hard she tried, her fingers seemed to be swung by a spinning top and could never be aimed at the wooden king's body.
The most important thing is that her ability only takes a moment to activate and cannot be sensed by the outside world.
