Chapter 43 Evil always kills each other
The Soul Harvester dagger leaves a wound on the body of the climber and the summoner. The blade was sharp, and it went in and out quickly, so that no blood flowed from the wound, and their souls had fallen into hell.
With the soul in the account, Midnight slowly came to life. It emitted "hairy" in Feige's arms...... Mao ......", trying to stick out its tongue to lick him, even though it was still very weak, it was desperate to show its intimacy. Feige stroked the cat's head, then went to Master Kiplin's room, found a soft cushion, and placed it on it.
"You rest here and wait for your body to fully recover. Don't run around at this time, it's not good if you lose your ass. ”
The corrosive rays emitted by the masked woman's ring were so powerful that after a midnight shot, only a thin layer of fur remained on part of her body. Recovering from this kind of injury consumes a lot of hellish power, so Feige is still the miserable devil who is destitute and has not eaten the last meal.
How miserable is a throwing knife, and his own wounds have not yet been treated! Arriving at the old man Kiplin's room, Feige opened the medicine cabinet and looked for a healing potion according to the label on it.
The nightmare downstairs made a horse-like cry and came up the empty staircase, hollow and contentless when it reached Feige's ears. The Nightmare was a little impatient, and it wanted to know what was happening in the tower, but it didn't dare to shout in purgatory. The summoner also knew the language of purgatory, but he must not be made aware of his intentions. I just heard the sound of battle inside, and then what? Why is it so quiet?
The magic runes of the fortress castle are still there, and it will definitely be electrocuted as long as it enters it. If it's just a surprise attack and a quick kill of one of them, then it's okay to endure the electric shock, after all, you can recover slowly, but you can't stay inside for a long time. As a result, the Nightmare could only wander outside the fortress, dodging the slowly walking geistels, and then call twice from time to time.
"It's annoying. Fitch found a lot of bottles and cans of ointment to suppress bleeding and heal trauma. It was a yellow-green plasticine-like thing, and he opened the jar and grabbed a large handful of paste directly from the wound. After a very irritating pain, the wound began to converge and was already developing in a good direction. The next treatment can only be carried out after the old man Kiplin wakes up.
Wake up? Something suddenly occurred to Feige. He turned back to rummage through the potions he had just seen, and then pulled out a vial of golden potion from inside. This is a bottle of "Huishen" magic potion, which is very valuable. If its effect is exactly the same as that of the "Returning to Spirit" in the alchemy potion, then it should hopefully wake up the old man.
The old man lay beside the platform, his eyes closed, his expression still grim. Feige pried his mouth open, then uncorked the bottle, carefully poured the pill, and waited a moment. The old man's eyelids twitched, and then slowly opened.
Feige hurriedly stretched out his index finger to cover his lips, and said in a low voice, "Lord Snowowl, the nightmare is still there, whisper." ”
The old man nodded. He saw the label on the empty bottle in Feiqi's hand, and suddenly a tear ran down the wrinkle......: "How do you use such an expensive thing?" I should have written the price on it. ”
"The money comes back and earns it again. Fei Qi put down the medicine bottle and helped the old man sit up with his free hand: "Let me briefly describe the situation: three intruders, one of whom summons and controls the nightmare. Three of them were killed by me, and the nightmare hadn't come in the courtyard yet, and there were geyers outside, and Kylie was still dizzy. What should I do now?"
The old man frowned and thought for a few seconds, then said, "There is only one bottle left in his senses, and he can't wake up Kailie for the time being." Spirits, Nightmares...... Feiqi, I have to go to the meditation room to open the magic circle, and I will have to deal with the nightmare in a moment. You go under my bed, the blue metal box, which opens by tapping the tip of the angel's nose with your little finger, three times. Inside is the Thunder Bomb, which you use to attack Nightmares, and then the Stronghold's magic runes will follow suit. All the thunder energy accumulated in the past three years has burst out, which should be enough to kill the nightmare. But you still have to be careful, bring a weapon and protect yourself. ”
"Then I'll take you to the top floor first. ”
The old man stood up with the help of Feige, and then pushed him away. "Nightmares can chirp again at any time, and you and I will faint again. Without further ado, you go get your weapons and I'll go upstairs myself!"
Feige nodded, took out the blue-painted one of the three boxes from under the old man's bed, and tapped the tip of the cherub's nose three times. The tip of the nose is a very sensitive mechanism, and the workmanship is so delicate that even if you get closer, you can't see that there is a gap. After knocking, I heard only an extremely faint click, and the gear mechanism in the box began to click, and the lid opened on its own.
Inside, a thick velvet cushion was used as a cushion, and five grooves were laid out, and the only two remaining Thunder Demonic Bombs were placed inside. Each Thunder Bomb was about the size of a grenade from a previous life, and a lightning bolt emblem was erected on the circular sphere. When used, it can be used by pressing the emblem firmly into the inside of the sphere and then throwing it.
Feige took both Thunder Demonic Bombs with him, and then picked up the heavy crossbow. He was about to reload the bolt when he noticed the larger and deeper grooves of the heavy crossbow than the other models. He measured it with his fingers, then summoned the Soul Harvester Dagger, and shoved it in.
Although that thing is called the Soul Harvest "Dagger", it is actually a transformation of a sharp horn, and it doesn't even have a gauntlet or a grip, it's thin and straight. It's thicker than a normal crossbow, but barely fits into a heavy crossbow. Feige raised his crossbow and fired another shot at the climber's stout body. It worked! The Soul Reaper dagger stabbed into the corpse again, and his idea was realized! Even though the dagger was much heavier than the crossbow and the trajectory sank faster, it was not a problem at close range!
Yes, he didn't want to live with nightmares, not in the first place. Since Feige chose to wake up and defend the Ice Peak Fortress and the people here, he would inevitably expose the fact that he was not affected by the mental shock in front of the nightmare. This information can lead to a lot of conjecture, and conjecture can lead to trouble, and this trouble must not be associated with the evil creature Nightmare.
Fitch wakes up Old Man Kipling, who doesn't know that he hasn't fainted at all, so he can also say that he just recovered faster and woke up, and then killed the three intruders in a sneak attack, which is easy to explain. Besides, Feige knew and believed that the old man would care for and protect him, and even if there was trouble, it would not come from the old man.
He even thought of a deeper level: if Old Man Kiplin and Kaili appeared in front of the Nightmare, the Nightmare would most likely stun them again with a mental shock. However, Nightmare may figure out that Feige is trying to trick him, and may tell the two of them the secret that Feige is a contract demon. This is extremely unlikely, but it still exists.
But there's always a risk in everything, isn't it?
Before, he was not sure to kill the nightmare, in that case, the void and the snake were a last resort, even if he finally let the tiger return to the mountain and raise the tiger for trouble, there was no way to do it. Now, the way to kill the Nightmare's two grenade-shaped shapes is hidden under his clothes, and the situation is naturally different.
After all, there is no need to say sorry to each other, just as the devil never has mercy on humans.
The devil has this ability, and the contract demon is the best of them - although it is a little worse than the desire demon. Using the devil's ability, Feige immediately controlled his expression, and appeared at the gate of the fortress castle with a straight face.
"It's done, all three are dead. Feige sideways away from the geyers passing by, and then said to Nightmare, "How did you do that? I told you, your summoning contract is over, you stay in the mortal world by pact with me, and your mission is to help me destroy the invaders of the fortress." ”
"The process doesn't matter, isn't the result very good?" the nightmare looked at Feiqi, and then asked with concern, "Are you injured?"
"It's just a skin, and it's going to be back soon. Fei Qi snorted: "If you help me with treatment, you will complete my contract, do you think this can lie to me?"
"Don't dare, Contract Demon, I'd love to help you, but this castle is protected by magic, and I really can't help it. ”
Feige's eyes narrowed, like a real devil. "Don't try to be clever in front of me. What were you hiding just now?Why don't you say you can't attack the person holding your summoning statue?Are you worried about reminding me that your summoning statue is still in the castle?I've smelled the unease in your soul, and...... The statue is in my hand. ”
Feige spread out his left hand, and the Paladin's Soul Contract lay in the middle. He spread out his right hand, and the Nightmare Summoning Statue of Bloodflint lay quietly inside. He'd been thinking about killing Nightmares, how could he forget something so important.
"Your Excellency...... Oh, sir, I'm not being clever, I'm just forgetting about it. Nightmare spoke in a flattering voice, but puffs of black smoke came out of her nostrils.
"Then again, at least you didn't cause trouble in the previous fight. Feige showed the two things in his hand, "Now, you can make a choice, do you want a soul contract, or do you want to summon a statue?" As a contract demon, I can sign a supplementary agreement to use the statue instead of the soul contract as a reward!"
"This ......" Nightmare hesitated, but the "fragrance" of the Fallen Paladin's Soul Contract rushed straight to his nostrils, which could not be concealed by emitting flames and black smoke. Eventually, the twins of evil and greed prevailed, and Nightmare said, "I'll do it all." ”
"I like it all. Feiqi said, "The Soul Contract was the agreed reward in the previous contract, but you didn't contribute to the battle. So, if you want to get back a statue that can use the summoning contract, you'll have to do me a truly excellent service. As I have called you, but with all your heart. ”
"Uh...... Good. Nightmare nodded in agreement, and then said self-deprecatingly, "This is also one of the risks that need to be taken by binding the summoned statue, and there is nothing to say." ”
"Yes, that's right. It is a fair order to enjoy the convenience of being summoned more frequently and to have easier access to the growth of sacrifices, which must also bear some risks. Feige tossed the scroll to Nightmare first, "And so, a contract is complete." ”
Nightmare took the paladin's contract with his mouth and swallowed it directly into his stomach, then stared at his summoned statue. Feige clenched the Nightmare Statue, held it up and said, "It just so happens that I need your services now, you follow my orders, now wait here, don't leave a single step." ”
"Huh, okay...... What's going on?"
Nightmare was a little confused, he hadn't thought about honoring the service contract right away, and he hadn't thought that Feige would throw the summoning statue over. The statue was thrown off, and Nightmare tried to move to pick it up with his mouth, but found that his four legs were as if they had been nailed to the ground, and he couldn't move at all.
"Old accounts will be settled first...... Feige did not hesitate to throw out the Thunder Demon Suppression Bullet, smashing it on the immobile Nightmare, watching it be wrapped in brilliant lightning as it lifted the heavy crossbow. When aiming, he said: "Debt-free and light, only then can I do it!"
