Chapter 67: The Vortex of Conspiracy
The demon's roar echoed through the basement, deafening, and with this terrible howl, the demon no longer flew around aimlessly, but flew straight towards Jiwen.
"Give me back my soul. ”
The demon kept repeating the phrase, and the thought seemed to occupy his entire mind. He only had the figure of Jiwen in his eyes now, and he couldn't even see the stone support pillars between the two, so much so that when he rushed towards Jiwen, he hit the pillar headlong.
The demon broke two pillars in quick succession, then tumbled and fell to the ground, and even its wings seemed to break. But the demon didn't care, he just shook off the gravel and dirt from his body, struggled to his feet, and walked towards Jiwen step by step, his mouth continued to roar.
"Give me back my soul. ”
It's not the first time that Jiwen has faced these evil and ugly demons, but this crazy demon has made him wonder and reborn. This demon is obviously not normal, and his goal is actually himself.
The demonic whispers that kept roaring from his mouth seemed to say, let himself return his soul.
But what does he have to do with demonic spirits? Givens doesn't remember touching this guy's soul.
At this moment, Jiwen suddenly remembered what the demon had said when he fought against the purple-eyed demon before.
"Actually, you're a good body, but it's a pity we missed the opportunity. ”
Body, soul?
Given's sudden thought of his call to this world. Could it have happened to me and the demon's soul in that failed call?
Jiwen recalled the strangeness of the summoning, thinking of the first time he arrived in this world, he had a splitting headache and almost lost consciousness
A terrible thought flashed through Given's mind.
Could it be that the purpose of the demons interfering with this summoning is just to secretly stuff the soul of a demon into the body of the summoned beast. I was almost overrun by these demons and became a walking dead who was manipulated by others.
Just as Gilvin was still wondering, the demon's voice sounded again.
"Your body was originally mine, and that girl's soul was originally mine. But you stole everything. "The closer the demon got to Givin, the more his intellect and consciousness seemed to be awake. And his words, which contained a lot of clues, made Jiwen completely understand the purpose of the demons.
The demons' goal has always been Adelia, but they are no longer satisfied with taking her away, but hope to lure her to a path created by the demons through the demons hiding around her.
There was only one reason why they had gone to such great lengths, Adelia was not only a student from a poor background in Sodima City, but also an unusually special elf in this world.
The accidents that happened around Adelia are now linked by this explanation.
Why the demons tirelessly weave a web of intrigue around Adella, and why Adella has a terrifying memory of the demon in her memory, all stem from the mystery of her unknown identity.
Givens suddenly realized that he had come to this world not as an ordinary summons, but as a fall into the center of a maelstrom of conspiracy.
The conspirators who hide in the shadows can swallow themselves up at any time, such as the one standing in front of them now.
"My soul is in your body, surrender your body, and I will save your soul from eternal torment. ”
Before he knew it, the demon had approached Jiwen, and he arrogantly opened his mouth to ask for it, as if it were a gift.
"Dream!" Given's refusal.
"Hmph, then let me pull out your poor soul!" the demon waved its claws and took another step forward.
"You try. Givens took a half step back and raised the slinger in his hand.
Just as he was confronting the demon, Genes caught a glimpse of Ares, who quietly moved behind the demon while the demon's attention was all focused on Given.
Seeing Ares begin to swing his hammer at the demon's back, Given's follow-up to attract the demon's attention.
But at this time, the demon no longer had that crazy gaze in his eyes, and seemed to have completely regained his senses. He recited the incantation at an incredible speed, and a firestorm erupted in the enclosed basement.
Ares was directly swallowed by the wave of fire and flipped into the corner, even though Govern had magic steel armor and magic resistance in his body
He was also swept back a few steps back by the surging waves of fire.
The demon looked back at Ares, who had passed out, and whispered contemptuously, "Frail bug, don't bother me to get my new body back." ”
But when the demon turned his head again and faced Jiwen, he suddenly noticed that two cold lights flashed in the air.
Givens had already thrown the slinger in his hand towards the demon's chest.
"I can't help myself!"
The demon didn't care about Jiwen's sneak attack, and once again, he used his best quick spell to create a magical fire explosion in front of him.
The flames of the explosion formed a huge cloud of flames, which rushed straight towards Jiwen, and the two slingers were immediately swept to the roof by the air wave, making a crisp bumping sound.
Watching Jiwen's body gradually be engulfed by the cloud of flames, the demon thought in disgust, "The same weak fellow, if it weren't for the fact that I had to get close to that child, I wouldn't have lived in such a weak body. ”
But at this moment, there was a sudden change in the flame cloud, and a strange "silk" sound came from the air. The blazing flames that enveloped Jiwen gradually dissipated, and the air began to fill the air with high steam.
Behind the hazy vapour, Givens was holding his hands up, aiming in the direction of the flames, and there were still scattered frost flowers on his arms.
"Ice Arrow?" The demon recognized the spell that had intercepted the flame explosion just now, but before he could cast the next spell, Jiwen raised his fist and rushed straight at him.
The arrogant demon ignored Giwen's threat and remained motionless. He was just estimating the distance between himself and Jiwen, calculating the timing of the final blow.
With just one palm, he was able to knock the weak creature unconscious, and then he could continue with the interrupted ritual.
In the last accident, his soul was cut in half, a small part remained in the creature's body, and the rest remained in his own body to endure the same pain, and now he wants to let the two parts of his broken soul merge with this guy's body again, and then go to complete the divine mission that the master told him.
Now, that victory seems within reach.
The demon watched as Givens rushed to his side and jerked out his right claw. But he didn't expect his precise blow to be missed. His claws silently passed through the elf's head, as if it were just a phantom.
"Spirits!"
The demon was shocked, this weak creature turned out to be a spirit being! He subconsciously wanted to step back, but it was too late.
Jiwen had been waiting for this opportunity for a long time, and at that moment, he opened the storage ring and pulled out the "fate" sword.
The blade of the sword, which flashed with black magic arcs, sliced through the air and slashed straight at the demon's left shoulder.
Moments later, a column of blood rose into the sky, and the demon screamed and covered the shoulder of the missing left arm.
Given, leaving no respite for his opponent, the heavy blade of his sword rose high again, slashing diagonally at the demon's waist.
But this time, the demon didn't dodge, but instead suddenly stepped forward with the blade of the sword. The sword shattered his flesh and sternum directly, deeply embedded in his left chest.
The demon didn't seem to care about the fatal wound on his body, and he grinned and continued to rush forward half a step. The devil's ugly face had been pasted in front of Jiwen, and Jiwen could even smell the sulfur in their blood.
Suddenly, a demonic voice came out of the demon's mouth, and the destroyed magic circles and scattered magic materials around him emitted a magical glow.
Jiwen looked around in amazement, and then noticed that wisps of purple mist were emanating from the demon's head and then accumulating on his forehead.
Blood was pouring from the demon's mouth, but he still laughed wildly.
"You're strong, but this body is mine now!"
The headache that had been there came from the top of Given's head again, and his consciousness began to blur.
Yes, it was the painful feeling he felt when he was summoned for the first time, and it was only then that Givens realized that it was the discomfort caused by the demon's attempt to take his body. But since the demon failed to take his body that time, Jiwen will never give up this time!
Given's best to stabilize his consciousness and maintain control of his body. He held "Fate" in both hands, and used all his strength to continue to slash the blade downward. The black blade enveloped Given's anger and pierced the demon's body.
The terrifying chanting of the incantation finally stopped, and the evil purple mist in the air finally dissipated.
Jiwen steadied himself and looked at the demon that had been cut in two.
The demon's limbs were still trembling, and his head seemed to have the last vestiges of consciousness.
The demon looked at Jiwen, and said in a tone that he would not admit defeat: "I haven't lost yet, my remaining soul is still in your body......"
But the remaining light of life was not enough for him to finish his sentence. The demon's voice stopped abruptly, and the ugly head tilted to the side, never moving again.
