Chapter 32: The Grim Reaper Comes?
It's like falling from heaven to hell, which is the best interpretation of the mood of the black veins at this moment.
Although I saw it with my own eyes, my brain still couldn't react, what happened at that moment? Livada's short sword did slash Cabrindo's neck, but it was not Cabrindo's head that fell to the ground, but Livada's broken swords.
Cabrindo was still standing there, unchanged from before, no, not at all, in fact, there was still a visible change, that is, its original yellow-green skin had turned bright red.
"It hurts! You guys have some skills at forcing me to use the 'Scarlet Body,' but that's the end of the game," Cabrindo stroked his neck, his tone full of pride.
The Scarlet Body it was using at the moment was a high-level martial art that trained its muscles to the extreme, making it much harder, and judging from the fact that Livada's short sword was broken, Cabrindo's flesh was already harder than steel.
"Blackvein, heal Livada immediately, I'll hold it back," Lark said as he threw the last short harpoon in his hand as he ran towards Kabrindo.
"Just you?"
The short harpoon struck Cabrindo in the shoulder, but instead of piercing the flesh, it was bounced off like a blow to steel. Cabrindo sneered, and threw his hammer at the black stripe on the other side. The warhammer flew forward at a great speed, and the black streaks that were focused on magic cultivation were of course impossible to dodge, and they only had time to react like protecting their heads with their hands before they were hit head-on. The dark red magic light of the "Primary Attack Block" was shattered in one fell swoop, and the warhammer smashed the body with the black stripes to the ground, and blood splattered out of the black stripes' mouth.
And almost at the same time, Kabrindo also met Lac's attack, and Lac, who is good at mid-distance combat, naturally couldn't fight against Cabrindo in close combat, and was punched in the abdomen by Kabrindo after only one round, vomit mixed with blood spurted out of his mouth, and the long-handled harpoon fell to the ground, and Lark fell to his knees with his stomach in his arms.
In fact, the victory and defeat of this battle have been divided from the moment Livada fell.
Although the fish people worked hard, but Cabrindo's strength was too strong. With the defeat of the assassination team, the last hope of the fishmen is dashed, and they are greeted by their fate.
Livada suffered multiple fractures all over his body, and he was suffering from severe pain all over his body, not to mention standing, and even breathing became extremely difficult.
"Black vein, Rak!" It used almost all of its strength to barely call out the names of its companions, but there was no response, and it seemed that their situation was not promising. Livada then felt his right leg tugged on by a powerful force, and then his entire body was suspended into the air, and it was Cabrindo's evil smile that appeared in his shaky vision.
"I've been wounded a lot by you," Cabrindo said in a victorious tone, and then slammed Livada to the ground like his own hammer, shattering the ground with a clattering sound like a broken bone, and blood soaked the surrounding dirt.
Although Blackvein and Lark tried to get to Livada's side, they couldn't move their bodies and could only watch their companions being tricked by Kabrindo.
"You're pretty sturdy," Cabrindo let out a cheerful laugh as he lifted Livada high in the air again, watching it die.
"Livada!" Black Stripe shouted vigorously and stretched out his hand in front of him, but the distance of 100 meters was naturally not something that could be reached by stretching out his hand. Sorry everyone! Black Stripe apologized in his heart to the fellow fishmen who were fighting to the death in the distance. At this moment, it really hopes that the legends it has heard as a child are true, and that the god who protects the fish-people will appear to rescue them. So far, only prayers have happened for miracles.
It turns out that I'm afraid of death.
Black Stripes is ridiculous about her weakness.
However, as if in response to the helplessness and fear in its heart, a voice sounded in its head, it was a relaxed voice that seemed quite abrupt on the battlefield of desperate struggle.
"I'm sorry to disturb your fight, but can you pause for a moment?" The voice said.
Kabrindo tossed Livada aside, then looked left and right as if looking for something, and the four goblin guards behind him showed the same reaction, as if they had heard the voice, which proved that it was indeed there and not a hallucination of the black stripes. Transmission of sound directly to the brain instead of hearing,It's definitely a kind of psychic magic.,But general psychic communication can only connect two people.,And the object of magic must be accepted in the heart.,Like this, it can ignore the will of the object.,And connect multiple people at the same time must be quite advanced magic.。
Then a figure slowly descended from the sky, the white robe danced gracefully in the air, the golden magic staff emitted some kind of divine light, could it really be a god?
There was a burst of ecstasy in the black stripe's heart, but it soon determined that the other party's identity could not be a god, because above the white robe was a skeletal head.
"Let me introduce myself, then, my name is Kilgaru, and I'm the owner of this canyon," the skeleton said in a flat tone after landing on the ground and looking around.
"The owner of the canyon? This canyon will soon be mine, do you want to come and beg for mercy? Hahahaha" Kabrindo laughed in response to the skeleton, not using magic, of course, but shouting directly through his throat.
"Ah, I don't want to give you the canyon, on the contrary, I want you to join my village and build this canyon together."
"Join your village? Do you want me to bend Cabrindo to you, ridiculous fellow, I need to show you my power. Cabrindo made a defiant sound.
"I've seen what you just fought, and there's no way you're going to defeat me." Although it was Cabrindo's answer, the skeleton's face turned to black lines, as if it were stating an indisputable fact.
"And what about you fishmen?"
Blackvein looked at Rak and Livada, who were unconscious, and Lark nodded to himself.
Although the skeleton did not exude any amazing magic, but just in the face of the pair of dark and hollow eyes, Blackline still felt an inexplicable fear, its intuition told it that the skeleton in front of it was quite dangerous or it was better not to reject it, so, following his heart, Blackline said respectfully, "I am the patriarch of the Fish-Man Haro Clan, Black-Hallu, if you can help us through this crisis, our seven fish-man families are willing to join your village." ”
"Haha, it seems that you fishmen are better at talking." The skeleton nodded, looking satisfied.
"How dare you ignore me and watch me screw your head off!" Cabrindo seemed to be completely enraged, and let out a terrifying roar. If the opponent is a warrior, it can roughly judge the opponent's fighting style by its size, but the skeleton in front of it is obviously a magician, and magic is quite a dangerous thing that can easily make up for the gap in physical ability, so generally speaking, it is better to avoid fighting for magicians whose strength is unknown. Despite his short temper, Cabrindo is no brave guy, but the reason why he chooses to engage in head-on confrontation at this moment is because it has a tool that can fight against magic.
Cabrindo untied something that resembled a mask from his waist and put it on. The name of this mask is the "Mask of Madness", and it is a magic item, and the so-called magic item refers to a tool made entirely of magic, so it is a rarer treasure than an enchanted item that is infused with magic in the later stage. This treasure was obtained by Kabrindo from a human adventurer who had come to defeat him, and he had used it to kill many skilled magicians. That's why it provoked the skeleton mage in front of it without any scruples.
As the mask is put on, it is more appropriate to say that it is not so much to put it on, but rather to be consumed by the mask. Because the moment he put on the mask, many tiny tentacles stretched out from under the mask, and they continued to grow and envelop Cabrindo's whole body at a crazy speed, and then dyed Cabrindo's whole body black as if it had melted into the skin. That's the effect of the magic contained in the mask being activated, which is a special magic called "magic blocking", which can form a layer of special materials that can block magic on the user's body, thus making the magic nullify, of course, the duration of the effect is limited, about five minutes or so, but Cabrindo, who has complete confidence in his fighting ability, believes that five minutes is enough to defeat any magician.
Of course, this self-confidence of Cabrindo is blind, which is the best proof that it has never met a truly powerful magician. As a matter of fact, the Mask's "Magic Blocking" ability only works on Tier 1 to Tier 3 magic, and it will still take damage when attacked by Tier 3 or higher. However, there are very few people or monsters that can use magic from the third level or above, and Cabrindo has never encountered it, so it is not surprising that the mask is mistaken for a treasure that can block all magic.
"This mask is a treasure that can block magic attacks, you can go to hell and regret it, hahahaha."
From Cabrindo's arrogant laughter, it can be seen that it is not a bluff, because he is also a magician, so Blackline knows very well that if he can't use magic attacks, then the magician will definitely not be able to defeat the warrior. There was a mixed feeling of disillusionment in his heart, and he looked at the skeleton uneasily. However, the skeleton didn't seem to think so, and continued to convey a relaxed voice through magic.
"Is it a treasure that can block magic? It's amazing, I'd love to test it, but I don't want to break it, and I didn't plan on using magic to fight in the first place. ”
"Huh?" I understood what the other party was saying, but I couldn't fully understand that the magician didn't use magic, so he wanted to defeat me in melee combat. Is this skeleton crazy? This is what Cabrindo is thinking at this moment. Of course, all the monsters present had the same idea as it.
"Hmph, after a while, you won't be able to make a sound again!" Kabrindo quickly sprinted towards the skeleton, his violent force forming a trail of dust behind him. Rushing in front of the skeleton at breakneck speed, Cabrindo threw a powerful punch. A punch that could easily shatter the rock pierced the skeleton's body, but Kabrindo's cheeks, hidden behind the mask, frowned, for the punch was completely devoid of any reality, as if it had hit the air, and then the pain of being slammed with a blunt object came from its back.
The skeleton's figure continued to emerge around Cabrindo like an infinitely blooming flower, and continued to attack Cabrindo at a speed that was unrecognizable to the naked eye. As an excellent warrior who was able to defeat three fish-man patriarchs at once, Cabrindo was powerless at this moment, surprise and fear became the only feelings in Cabrindo's heart, and he didn't even have time to say words begging for mercy, his sturdy body was knocked into the air, and then a more violent attack began. Kabrindo was suspended in mid-air in a spasmodic twisting motion, of course, the reason for such a strange state was because the attack from the skeleton caused its body to be knocked into the air again every time it fell due to gravity, which also showed how high-speed the skeleton was performing martial arts, even if it was called a divine skill, no one would question it.
After about a minute of such a high-speed attack, Cabrindo's body fell heavily to the ground, revealing his bruised and swollen cheeks from behind the mask that had fallen off, and his whole body was covered with hematomas, I am afraid that even his bones had been shattered, and it was a miracle that he was still alive.
Except for Livada, who was still unconscious, the six monsters, including the four goblin guards, rubbed their eyes and let out an unbelievable low moan.
"Ah, ah, I should have attacked directly with my fist just now," the skeleton let out a distressed cry as it looked at the deformed golden staff in its hand.
Blackvein took a deep breath, glad that he had accepted the skeleton's invitation earlier, and was able to defeat Cabrindo in one fell swoop, that skeleton was simply unbelievable, it was simply the god of death!
"If you accidentally seem to be a little heavier, after all, it is a martial art in the experimental stage, so this guy must not be good, can any of you take its place and speak to me on behalf of the goblin?" The skeleton glanced at Kabrindo on the ground, then turned his gaze to the four goblin guards.
"I, I'm Areb, and I think the four of us can represent the goblins," one of the four guards said as he took a step forward, trembling.
