Volume 1: Shadow Rising Chapter 31: The City of Fog (5) Bloodbathed
Kings Avenue, Marty Cafe, 15:15 p.m
Glenn Brown seemed to be a completely different person, and he carefully arranged his sleeves as if he were going to dust off all the dust from the battle.
"Hey, what the hell are you doing?" asked Shore as he stared at Glenn, who was judging the two of them.
"It's nothing, it's just that the yelling guy just now made my clothes seem a little dirty. Glenn replied without raising his head, his voice as calm as the surface of a windless lake.
"What's going on with him?" Shore felt the scene in front of him was very strange. "Wasn't he the one who fought with me just now, and there was another person somewhere. β
"This man may have multiple personality disorder. Ye Xiang, who was sitting on the chair next to him, gasped and said. "His personality is changing back and forth, don't you notice? The personality of the first person who entered the store is completely different from the personality of the person who just fought, and the person in front of us now is different from the personality of the person who just fought. β
Shore touched his chin and looked thoughtfully at Glenn in front of him and said, "It seems that this is really the case when you say this, is that guy actually a person with multiple personality disorder?"
"Don't underestimate him. Ye Xiang leaned on the wall with his hands to support himself and sit up straight in the chair, "I just remembered that there is a man known as 'Evil Spirit' among the Wild Hunters, and it is said that he killed all the candidates and examiners during the Wild Hunt selection exam, and peeled off their skins to make dolls. In the end, when the investigation team asked him about it, he had no memory of it at all, and if he was a personality disorder at the time, then it could have been explained. β
"Did you kill all the candidates and examiners?" Xiao Er repeated what Ye Xiang had just said, "Then the person in front of me now is the murderer at that time?"
Glenn finally stopped arranging his cuffs: "There seems to be such a thing, but I'm about to forget it, and it's too boring to talk about the old past now." β
"You're a real demon. Shore could hardly believe that the man in front of him could react so coldly, "You killed your companion, your teacher, without the slightest guilt!?"
"Dead are dead, what's the point of mentioning them again?" Glenn replied indifferently, "Dead people have no value, so why waste time living in guilt." β
"You're terrible!" Shore's right arm gleamed with gold, "Looks like I'm going to have to teach you a good lesson so you can repent." β
Glenn moved the bones of his hands slightly, and then half-tilted his head in a gesture of contempt: "In my eyes, you are already a dead man, and you are still talking big things there." He whispered the call, "Awaken, play with the threads of fate, and imprison your soul forever to eternal despair, the Divine Word, the Soul Bond." β
Hearing him shout the word awakening, Xiao Er and Ye Xiang were shocked, but soon they found that nothing had happened around them, and Xiao Er even nervously groped his whole body.
"What are you doing, are you bluffing?" said Shore, "and you're at the end of your rope, and you're going to have to pretend to be at the endβ"
"Shhhh "The puppet show of fate has begun, and you are the actor on the stage, so enjoy the performance. β
"What are you talking aboutβ" Before Shore could finish his sentence, his hands twisted backwards in a position that humans would never have been able to do, and Maia fell to the ground in his hands in severe pain. To his horror, Shore found that the movement was completely out of his control.
"What's going on?" a bead of sweat rolled down the bridge of Shore's nose, "No way, I've already checked it just now, there's no thread-like object entanglement at all, what exactly is this?"
"That guy likes to use solid wires. Glenn leisurely dragged a chair over and sat down. "He's a no-aesthetic person, he always likes to perform with these clumsy techniques, and he loses control when he encounters a little setback. β
Does "he" mean the personality who fought with me just now? Shore thought, "Is this personality completely different from the one just now, and the way of attacking?"
"Shore!" Ye Xiang struggled to stand up, but since he had just escaped from the manipulation, his whole person was now almost in a state of collapse, and he couldn't even stand steadily.
"Just sit down there. Glenn glanced at him and said, "If there are actors and no audience, then the show is incomplete." β
"What exactly have you done to me?" Shore's hands were twisted almost 180 degrees, the sound of bones grinding against each other rang out one after another, and the sharp pain was eating away at what was left of his sanity. "There is no line, what do you do?"
"Well, then, I'll grant your mortal man's wish. Glenn stretched out his hand and yawned, "The thread does exist, but it is invisible and incorporeal, because it is a thread that extends from my soul, and the thread is not connected to your body, but to your soul itself, so you will not feel anything." β
"A thread that connects directly to the soul. Shore gritted his teeth and said, "Is that so, it seems that I underestimated you!"
"Now you know. Glenn leaned against the back of the wooden chair and said, "You shouldn't have any regrets, die!" He gently hooked the index and middle fingers of his hands, as if pulling at the silk thread.
And immediately following Glenn's finger movements, Shore's hands also twisted 180Β° at the same time, "Ahhhh
"Great, right?" Glenn just smiled at the miserable state of his opponent in front of him. "But you can't die now, at least until I'm done with this play. β
Thames, 15:16 p.m
The wide surface of the river has turned into solid ice, and above the ice there are three rare figures fighting.
Jordi Ferron lost his advantage, but he was not timid, and even one person was no match for Raven and Nicholas.
Nicholas molded the ice crystals covering his hands into the shape of a sharp sword, and his swordsmanship danced beautifully, and an ice sword danced countless ice flowers that shone with dazzling light, attacking Yordi like a blizzard that covered the eyes.
Raven drew the bone blade from his waist, a weapon he had asked the priests of the tribe to bless him before he set out, the bone blade was slender and sharp, and his years of hunting in the jungle allowed him to easily spot the weak points of his enemies. While Nicholas launched a frontal assault, he waited on the flanks to find a flaw in Jordi.
But while Jordi has lost the terrain advantage, his own ability to liquefy still makes it tricky for the two, especially when they're attacking.
"It's annoying. Nicholas stabbed Jordi in the right shoulder with a sword, but because his body was liquidized, the ice sword pierced directly into his shoulder without causing any real damage. "Hiding back and forth, he didn't want to fight us head-on"
"That's not a good situation. Raven's bone blade passed through his waist. "He wants to keep draining our strength and win when we don't have the strength, be careful!" he hurriedly turned sideways, and a water bomb fired by Jordi grazed against his ear.
"How long can you stay with me? Jordi responded to their attacks with ease, "I can't be attacked by you when I am liquefied, I see you are tired, right? Come on, let me see how far you can go!"
Regent Street, Windsor Clothing Store, 15:17 p.m
A dark purple light moved rapidly across the ground, and the object of the light was none other than the woman in the black robe.
"So fast!" the woman stopped and was about to take a breath when Rex, who was surrounded by a dark purple word, had already moved in front of her and swung his fist at her.
The woman rolled on the spot, narrowly dodging the blow, and the position where she was standing just now had been blasted out of a pit with a radius of nearly two meters.
"Not only is it fast, but it's also powerful. The woman calmly analyzed while dodging Rex's beast-like blows, "It's really beyond my expectations that she has such a strong power." β
"Shut up, mouth!" the rampaging Rex had only a desire to kill in his eyes, and anything that stood in his way was torn to shreds without mercy. "Here, me, come here!"
"This shouldn't be your final state, is it?" asked the woman, jumping away nimbly and looking at him. "Berserk alone is not an unrivaled ability, and your abilities are definitely not limited to that. β
"Die!" Rex didn't hear anything from the woman at all, he only had the desire to destroy her completely.
"It doesn't seem like I can listen to it, then. The woman slid to the unconscious Wakaba with a sliding step, then pulled a dagger from her waist and placed it around her neck. "Hey, monster, do you still recognize this woman? I don't think you recognize her anymore, and since you don't, then her life or death must have nothing to do with you, right?"
Rex's pupils contracted suddenly, and the originally violent attack slowly stopped: "Let go of her, I want you to let go of her, don't hurt her!"
"It looks like it's really useful. The woman smiled, "If you want to save her, then let me see your true power, that absolute power that makes people extremely frightened!"
"Let go of her, let go of her!" Rex just repeated the words, "Ah, it hurts, my head hurts, what's wrong, what's going on?" he fell to his knees in pain and covered his head with his hands.
A shadow appeared in front of his eyes where he couldn't see his face. "It's pathetic. Shadow said with a vague mouth, "I can't even save the person I love, it's so pitiful, let me help you again." β
The shadow reached out and touched his face, and the moment they touched, Rex felt his consciousness begin to fade in an instant, as if he had fallen into a bottomless abyss, falling towards the endless darkness.
"If you want to see it that way, I'll satisfy you!" Rex's eyes turned completely cold slowly stood up, "I am the infinite darkness that can devour light, my name is ......" He said a name in a flat tone, and for the first time, the woman had a frightened expression on her face, and her eyes watched in horror as Rex walked slowly towards her.
