Volume 13 Seals!A Sigh from the Abyss Gate!Chapter 79: The Soul Hunter
"Sophie?"
Urak thought about it and nodded happily, Sophie's combat power is particularly easy to exert in the environment of the temple, and it is also Sophie who has taken a fancy to this person's soul, a diocesan bishop, if he can successfully devour, he must be able to go to the next level, right?
Besides, Ibusel had just fought with the great knight Uther, and it was not very safe to rashly compete with a master of the same level, and it was best if someone was willing to fight first, even if she was not an opponent, she was not so easy to kill, and she could delay for a while at worst. [Full text reading.]
"Then it's up to Councillor Sophie. β
Sophie bowed to the crowd and said, "Wait for the good news to come." β
Ibsel glanced at her, tapped his fingers on the back of his hand, smiled softly, and sat back down.
Sophie didn't delay or care about what Ibselle would think of her, she just knew that this opportunity could not be missed.
This mission, the council gave extremely generous conditions, before that, she did not have the opportunity to show her true strength, because there are not many places to use her, so so far she is very dissatisfied, she stood out from many competitors and paid a lot of price, but just walking around can not make up for her previous losses, but if you can kill a person in the upper position of the light camp, then, it can talk about the real gain.
Although I have also heard of Landiston's name, there are even legends that this is also a fourteenth-level powerhouse, maybe even fifteenth, and she herself is just a thirteen-pole soul hunter.
But Sophie still dares to go up and challenge, which comes from her confidence in her own strength.
Soul hunters, able to communicate with the world of the dead, devour and control the soul, so as to strengthen themselves, as long as the soul is not hit too hard, they can still change a body to continue to survive, and they themselves are already a kind of thing between undead creatures and humans, many people in the dark camp are willing to choose to become a soul hunter after confirming that they cannot be converted into lichs, but if it is not that the means that can be used are too single, there are many limitations, and the probability of success of the conversion is not very high, I am afraid that this kind of profession in the dark camp will be floodedγ
She walked directly to the fourth floor, first observed, and then nodded with satisfaction, the environment here was indeed very suitable for her fighting style.
Her white and plump hand stretched out from the black robe, she held a white hexagonal crystal in her palm, and with a slight flick of her wrist, it rolled down from her palm, and as it rolled all the way to the ground, a faint white smoke emanated from the crystal, and more and more, gradually spreading to the entire fourth layer.
Countless white ghosts emerged from the hedrons, floating around in a daze, not communicating with each other, as if they could not see their own kind, but wandered aimlessly.
The two white figures approaching Sophie were completely different, as soon as these two ghosts appeared, their eyes were full of fear when they looked at Sophie, and they screamed and avoided in the distance, although they were not living people, their expressions were extremely vivid.
The corners of Sophie's mouth curled slightly, ordinary soul hunters can only manipulate hundreds of ghost puppets, but she, who is outstanding in her profession, can control thousands of ghost puppets, and in special circumstances, these puppets are simply no less than the elite army, and even because they are not afraid of physical attacks, the actual combat power is far beyond this.
But today, these ghost puppets are just chips to be tempted.
She knows very well how difficult a papal bishop can be.
Her tactics are clear, in the face of a high-level opponent like Landiston, she does not expect to defeat the opponent at once, but needs to take it one step at a time.
Let these ghost puppets try to attack once, preferably to hold the opponent back, and use this time to allow her to observe and distinguish the opponent's weaknesses and strengths, so as to decide her own offensive tactics.
For this, these costs must be paid.
Looking around, she took a step back into the white fog that had now filled the hall, and then the whole person slowly dissolved into it.
Not long after, a figure appeared silently at the entrance to the fourth floor.
Sophie, hidden in the thick fog, showed a slight surprise,
Lantiston, he actually came alone?
There is no swordsman to guard it, and there is no prayer master to be in charge of spiritual defense?
It seems that this person is very confident in his own strength.
But that's giving you a chance, isn't it?
The reason why she was so cautious just now was because she not only calculated the strength of the person who came, but also added the other party's attendants.
Based on her many years of experience in dealing with the Holy See, a bishop is indeed a powerful existence, and with the cooperation of the acolytes, it is almost impossible to kill them head-on, which is the consensus of the entire council.
With the cooperation of the squires, they can not only increase the strength of the entire team by a large margin, but also all kinds of healing magic restoration are also a nightmare for the dark camp.
In all the years since the establishment of the Holy See, I have never heard of a bishop being killed from the front by a small number of men with his subordinates.
This is also one of the reasons why so many dioceses of the Holy See are gradually distancing themselves from the center, because the center also has no way to deal with them, but to take other means to slowly absorb and disintegrate them.
However, this was under the premise of the cooperation of the attendants, and now, Landiston came alone, which undoubtedly gave her a chance to make history, and she couldn't help but get excited in her heart.
"Welcome to the world of the dead. βγ
As soon as he stepped into the fourth floor, Luo Lan heard this smug voice, it reverberated erratically throughout the third floor, he looked around, under the faint white mist, everything became less real, and he could vaguely see many shadowy white figures wandering around.
"This is the world where the living go when they die, Lord Bishop, how is it, what do you think?"
Luo Lan shook his head and smiled, "I'm afraid you've forgotten my identity." β
"Ah, yes, the people of the Holy See...... I'm afraid you all think that you are going to go to the heavens ~ to see the hall after death, right? But I want to tell you, that's not true, the world after death is like this, there is no color, no temperature, no consciousness, and even souls can't communicate with each other, and as a soul, hehe, you won't go crazy. β
Luo Lan pursed his lips mockingly: "That's really a boring world." β
"But hell is better in such a world, isn't it? Isn't your Holy See always preaching this?"
"It's just a fool's world. β
Luo Lan smiled indifferently and said: "The real strong should be their own masters, those absurd worlds that go to find mercy after death and get forgiveness and charity are only the patent of the weak." He suddenly turned his head, looked in a certain direction in the depths of the fog, and said lightly: "Besides, I thought that it should be you who should really think about these things now?"
"Indeed, the methods used against civilians are really inappropriate for you, Lord Bishop, but I always want to know what some of you big people really think about the world of the dead, and I can't help but try it now, please don't mind. β
"It's just a child's play, so how could I mind. β
Sophie's complexion hidden in the thick fog changed slightly, and a flash of murderous intent appeared in her narrow eyes, and she couldn't help but say coldly: "Since Lord Bishop can't wait, then I will be kind enough to help you." β
She took out a metal flute from her sleeve, and then blew it gently, but there was no sound coming out, however, the surrounding ghosts from the world of the dead were stimulated, and the whistling and sharp howls seemed to penetrate from another world, and for a while, the faces of those ghosts who were originally sluggish and wandering suddenly became hideous and terrifying, they were crazy and fluttering in the hall, and at the same time found Luo Lan, the only "living thing" that existed in this hall.
These ghosts were like a group of sharks smelling blood, screaming and pounced on Luo Lan, thousands of ghosts pounced on Luo Lan's body like hungry wolves, they tore and bit wildly, and after a while, this white ocean submerged Luo Lan's whole person, because they were all crowded together, so that they piled higher and higher, and from a distance, they looked like a large wriggling illusory white cocoon,
"Is that the end of it......? So weak?"
After waiting for a long time and not waiting for a response, Sophie couldn't help but be surprised, but then, she knew that she was too optimistic.
First, a small cylindrical light leaked out of the thick cocoon and shot diagonally towards the ground, illuminating a spot of light with neat edges.
Immediately afterward, more and more pillars of light burst out in all directions like sunlight breaking through the heavy clouds, one after another, through the thick white cocoon.
The expressions of the ghosts became extremely frightened, and with a "zila" sound, it was like tearing a thick silk cloth, and all the ghosts disappeared in this sound like a smooth mirror wiped by a rag.
At this time, Luo Lan's body was wrapped in a dazzling light, and those flame-like white-gold lights were like flames burning to the extreme, clinging to his body.
"It's really hard to deal with. β
Since Luo Lan's glance just now seemed to see through his hiding place, out of caution, Sophie changed his place of residence.
"Since it's not advisable to attack from the front, let's continue to play in a different way. β
An extremely ordinary-shaped bow appeared in her hand, and she gently raised the bow, pulled the bowstring, and aimed at Luo Lan's back.
Judging from the battle just now, this Landiston's Shield of Light is extremely strong, but ...... A smile slowly drifted into the corner of her mouth, what if it was only this arrow?
The Void Arrow, an arrow between the soul and the real thing, its special material makes it impossible to stop it by relying only on the elements, it directly attacks the opponent's soul, and most importantly, it concentrates all its attack power to one point,
Such a skill can only be mastered by soul hunters who have reached level twelve or above, and at this time, they can truly be called "hunters".
Once the soul lock is completed, no one can dodge, and the next step is to compete with the strength of the souls of both sides, and for her, such an answer has been decided a long time ago.
But when her spirit had just fallen on the other party's body, and before she could lock on, suddenly, she felt a flower in front of her, and then something seemed to cross her throat, and this body felt completely out of her control.
Good speed
She was shocked, and for a moment, she knew that she had failed, but she didn't understand what the problem was.
A corpse gushing with blood fell at Luo Lan's feet, but the next moment, he frowned and looked up ahead, in front of him, a huge mirror was being placed, and Sophie, who was obviously dead, was standing there, looking at him with a smile.
"This time the loss is not small......"
Before she could finish speaking, Luo Lan stretched out her hand, and with a "bang", her whole body shattered along with the mirror, and countless broken lenses fell to the ground with a clatter.
"It's a pity that there's no way to kill the Bishop, but it's not easy to kill me. β
Sophie's figure continued to appear in the lenses on the ground, her expression still the same, but the person kept changing from one piece to the other in the fragments.
"Is that so?** Although it is destroyed, the soul still lives on through some medium. β
"That's true. β
"This is the 'Ghost Medium' skill unique to Soul Hunters, right?"
Spectre medium.
This is a skill that a soul hunter above the thirteenth pole can master, he can make the hunter's soul attach to some kind of pre-prepared "medium", the two become one, and the soul is connected to each other, as long as the fusion of the medium is not completely destroyed, the hunter will not be destroyed
Luo Lan squinted at those mirrors and said slowly: "Your soul is hiding in these mirrors, and you can travel freely in them, and if you are not caught out of here, it will not be able to kill you at all." He bent down, picked up a piece of lens, touched his chin, and muttered: "I guess, you must have smelted the 'medium' into the mirror and kept it somewhere, and now what I see is the mirror with this 'medium', but they are very rare in these lenses, even if you destroy all the mirrors here, as long as the mirror containing the most "medium" remains intact, it will not be able to cause you substantial harm." β
"That's right. Sophie in the mirror had a big smile.
Luo Lan sighed: "But, why did you make it into a mirror?"
"Because it's the soul hunter's favorite thing, and it's also the most affinity," Sophie in the mirror also learned from Luo Lan to touch his pointed chin, and said, "I'm not afraid to tell you, I have such 'medium mirrors' placed all over the continent" As long as I want, I can let my soul travel freely around the continent through them, and this kind of pleasure will never be understood by you living in the mortal world." β
Luo Lan said lightly: "Maybe, but that's the end of it." β
Sophie was stunned and asked suspiciously, "What do you want to say?"
"I mean, you made yourself a cage to trap yourself and didn't know where you were going to hide when the flood came one day?"
Sophie chuckled and said, "Where's the water?"
"Here it is. β
Luo Lan violently put the lens on his right eye.
At this time, a trace of silver light suddenly flashed in his right eye, and as the light became more and more intense, the entire right eye suddenly turned into a silver pupil, which looked extremely weird.
"Dragon Soul Imprint?"
Sophie was stunned for a moment, and then her face changed, as if she suddenly thought of something, and finally understood why the other party had just noticed her soul lock, and she suddenly screamed in panic: "Don't"
This kind of brand that has resisted the dragon's power is a curse from the dragon clan, it strongly rejects all spiritual things anytime and anywhere, and at this time, through Luo Lan's eyes, it completely shines into the mirror, and then spreads all the way to the world in the mirror.
The mirrors in the hall all trembled, and pieces of silvery-white light emerged from above, and then shattered one after another in a dense "click" sound.
At the same time, such a scene is playing out in many places around the world, Sophie shuttles like crazy in the world in the mirror, but the force is not reluctant, the medium can transmit her, and the same is the power of this curse, she is really like a prisoner trapped in a prison at this moment, thinking that she has built an impregnable castle, but it turns out that there is no way out when she is in danger of being drowned.
In a hilly cemetery on the western continent, on a corpse buried deep underground, her hands were firmly grasping a small round mirror, at this time, a light erupted from the round mirror with a terrible scream, "Click"
With a crisp crackling sound, everything was calm again.
Luo Lan threw away the lenses casually as if he didn't care, he raised his head and swept his eyes to the corridor above, Howard was standing on it looking at him, Luo Lan smiled lightly, stretched out his finger at Howard, and under Howard's surprised expression again, the latter's whole person slowly disappeared again.
"Sophie is dead. β
Howard stood up, he rubbed his head a little distressed: It's really a terrible enemy, and another shadow clone was solved by him, but unfortunately, he still didn't see how the other party saw through him, and what means he used, it seems that this problem can only be asked to ask the teacher.
Seeing that everyone around him was looking at him, he shrugged his shoulders and said, "Sophie died, died very simply, and even her soul was destroyed. β
The faces of most of the people present suddenly became very unsightly, and even the atmosphere felt a little depressed, Sophie's strength was very clear to them, as a thirteen-pole soul hunter, she was even stronger than Ibsail in some places, and the most important thing was that she was a rare powerhouse who had mastered the "ghost medium", which meant that the physical element attack could only destroy her ** at most, and her soul was almost difficult to kill.
But now they were told that Sophie had even had her soul destroyed, and for the first time, they felt threatened by each other.
Heavy footsteps sounded, and when everyone looked back, they saw Ibsel's back walking down the floor.
Ibsel's eyes revealed a strong fighting intent, he stroked the handle of the dragon spear in his hand, and said softly: "Don't worry, the glory that belongs to you can't escape X."
