Chapter 10: Burning and Ending
"Frightened!"
Feeling the crisis, Claire's eyes burst out with a foot-long red glow, and she screamed, and the sound was rolling!
More thick, chained psionic energy that seemed to be made of countless blood threads stretched out from the blood lotus behind her, turning her into a monster that seemed to have countless giant tails.
The black-and-red chains that looked like dried blood were waving wildly!
"Boom!"
Sawdust flew, branches sticking out of the surrounding woods shattered, and some of the black-and-red chains broke free and thrust at Wren and Catherine!
Catherine's gaze froze, and the magic "Spirit of Nature" magic circle flashed green.
The vines behind her grew wildly, stabbing at those black-red chains!
The green rattan also joins the battlefield, entangled with the red chains.
Frowning slightly, Claire raised her hands, and countless blood mist rose, like a layer of blood clouds blocking the small six-pointed star halo in the air, and spread out at the same time, covering the six-pointed star array on the ground.
The corrosive power of the starlight suddenly decreased, and many of the chains that had been infected with stardust like rust returned to black and red!
"Boom!"
A few more chains broke free from the vine branches and thrust into the painting in the center of the formation, trying to reclaim it.
Claire is actually very passive, she could have tried to break the formation violently, but the eye of the formation is a self-painted image of her husband, if the formation is forcibly destroyed, the portrait in the eye of the formation will inevitably crumble, so that Igor's resentment that has lost its sustenance will soon dissipate!
'Soul Breaker - Ghost Cut! ’
Wren jumped to his feet, drew his knife and slashed diagonally, and with a thud, the blue knife slashed through several black-red chains that pierced the portrait!
However, the situation is not optimistic, and after the Starlight Array is obscured, more and more chains are about to break free.
"O spirit of nature that wanders between heaven and earth, please listen to my call!"
Catherine's melodious chant sounded, and the formation "Spirit of Nature" worked to the extreme, and flower buds began to pull out between the green leaves of the vines behind her.
The fragrance of the flowers overflowed, the white flowers bloomed, the rattan trembled slightly, and the petals flew out, circling around Catherine in the air.
Catherine, like a fairy in a flower, folded her hands together and slowly pulled them up and down, and a crescent moon appeared in front of her, and immediately shone brightly, and the white petals in the air were dyed crimson.
"Deadly Grace!"
The glow of the moon scattered, and the petals rained down, swirling and shooting towards Claire like blades!
Sensing the edge, the witch retracted the black and red chains, layered on top of each other, forming an iron wall in front of her.
"Click"
Wren stepped lightly on his right leg, injecting the energy of the stars into a certain node on the ground, and after the magic circle on the bottom of his foot was running to the extreme, it suddenly went out, and the small six-pointed star array floating 8 meters high above burst into brilliant brilliance!
Starlight tore through the blood mist, eroding the black-red chains, and even the blood lotus behind the witch shrank and shrank!
"Bang! Boom! ”
At the same time, countless crimson flowers rained down, shining brightly, and the black-red chains shattered inch by inch, or were cut off, and scattered all over the ground!
Seeing this, Catherine threw out the crimson moon in her hand, and the crescent blade broke through the air and attacked straight forward!
Behind it, the remaining petals rushed towards the Red Witch like a horizontal tornado!
Claire's expression was cold, her eyes were full of madness, and the Spirit Devouring Array under her feet actually floated up directly and merged into her body.
In an instant, the surging spiritual energy converged into an invisible vortex, directly penetrating into the meridians and veins of her body!
Like porcelain cracking, the skin on her arms, legs, and even her face cracked open with blood, and her whole body was dripping with blood, staining the yellow gauze skirt and shirt on her body a dark red.
"Ahh
With a scream, the blood lotus behind the Red Witch completely bloomed, and the red light shone brightly, floating in front of her and forcing it in front of the petal tornado brought out by the Scarlet Moon!
"Bang!"
After a loud bang, dense black and red chains also flew and struck in the tide of petals like a rain of knives.
"Whew!"
The crimson moon was indestructible, and its sharp edge slashed through all the psionic chains, slashing into the buds, almost cutting the blood lotus in half!
"Boom! Boom! ……”
It was as if the sound of gold and iron clashing rang through the sky like firecrackers, and the rain of flower blades and black and red chains collided together!
Petals shattered, psionic chains were broken inch by inch, and almost at the same time, the crimson moon exploded, and the blood lotus suddenly cracked, splashing like gravel!
Claire endured the severe pain all over her body, and the blood flowing from her body gathered in her right hand, condensed into a blood-colored long whip, and slashed forward!
"Bell!"
Catherine, who was pale and over-consumed, barely lifted her long knife and tried to hold off the whip!
"Poof!"
The force was too great, the corners of Catherine's mouth were bleeding, and even the person with a knife was knocked away and rolled to the ground!
Claire, covered in blood, was about to mend her knife when two gunshots rang out suddenly.
Wren took out his demon hunting spear and fired two shots at the portrait standing in the center of the formation, at this time the two warlock formations had collapsed, and the painting had no protection!
Claire was startled, and rushed forward like an arrow.
"Bang! Boom! ”
Two holes in her back appeared, blood pouring from the tears in Claire's back, and even a demon hunting bullet hit her in the heart.
The witch fell to her knees, clutching her husband's self-portrait with both hands, her white and blood-stained fingers trembling as she gently stroked his face in the portrait.
"Bang! Boom! ”
Almost at the same time, Catherine, who coughed up a mouthful of blood, squatted up and pulled out her demon hunting pistol.
The array of spiritual energy injected into the gun, the rose pattern on the body of the gun lit up, and two golden demon hunting bullets flashed with golden light, whistling and hitting the back of the Red Witch!
Claire didn't mean to dodge, she knew she was going to die, and she had almost exhausted all her strength when she struck the witch away.
Forcibly transferred the Spirit Devouring Array to her body, the meridians and blood vessels of her whole body had cracked, and when the blood lotus was destroyed, she was also counterattacked, she was shot in the heart, and the old wound on her lower abdomen also recurred, and she was already on the verge of dying.
"Poof! Burst! ”
The golden demon hunting bullet struck her, bringing out two blood flowers, and immediately, a raging golden flame burned from her back, intending to consume the witch completely!
In the merciless light of the fire, Claire did not scream, but looked at the burning portrait in a daze, trying to extinguish it with her charred arms, but the flames grew stronger and stronger.
"No, stop, stop!"
The witch stretched out her hand and patted the portrait, and could not help but cry out weakly, and tears flowed down her face. Wren sighed when he saw this, put down the demon hunting spear, and the victory was divided, although the victory was not honorable.
He went over and helped Catherine, who was half-crouched and pale-faced, to her feet.
The portrait was quickly burned out, and the few remaining black-red runes against the flames on the witch's body were dimmed, and she was about to be burned to death by the golden "Flame of the Sun".
Claire looked at the ashes on the ground in despair, as if she had returned to a time when she had nothing.
Suddenly, a vague black shadow appeared from the firelight, and "he" wanted to reach out and touch her face, but the illusory arm passed directly through it.
With a smile, she wiped the tears from her face, let go of all defenses, and gathered the last remaining little spiritual energy on her body on her palm, holding "his" hand.
The golden flames burst into flames, illuminating the small square in the entire abandoned park, completely engulfing her and him.
Beside the dancing flames, Wren and Catherine watched in silence, and for a long time, Wren said softly, "We have won very despicable, taking advantage of the last bit of light in the heart of a poor woman." ”
Catherine's tone was a little weak: "Who can tell the truth of right and wrong, love and hatred in this world, love and hate, joys and sorrows?"
She also killed a lot of people, and who would care about the innocent dead. ”
Wren shook his head: "You're right, people often say that poor people must have something to hate, I actually don't like this sentence, can a person's misfortune and pain really be summed up so easily?"
Those bystanders are often the most indifferent and ruthless, and they don't even think about it, so they lightly label others. ”
Catherine shook her body, hugged Wren's left arm, and rested her head on his shoulder, she had just overdrawn all her strength, and she was injured and tired, and said in a soft voice: "You reacted quickly just now and saved my life, little man, pack up the spoils and send me home, okay?" ”
Wren hesitated, put his arms on her back and legs, picked up Catherine, glanced at her fair and beautiful face, walked to the center of the square, and picked up a transparent crystal with a slight blush from the ashes.
At this time, the moon passed through the dark clouds, and the clear light was sprinkled, and he held her and walked slowly in the lonely alley.
In his arms, she stared at his green but resolute face and smiled slightly: "You know what? In fact, the Red Witch's arrangement is perfect, and we shouldn't be able to find out who is behind her. ”
"Why?" Wren was slightly puzzled.
"The knowledge in the book is inevitably somewhat limited, and when the spirit is harmful, it usually evokes the shadow in the person's heart, but as the first victim, John Hakes sees the memory of the painter himself."
"You're saying that Igor, who has just been artificially turned into a resentful spirit, actually consciously stopped his wife." Wren reacted quickly and thought about the problem.
"That's right, he didn't actually want to hurt her, he just didn't want her to be like she used to be." Catherine's beautiful eyes looked at the moon and she was fascinated.
"Perhaps, this is love."
