Chapter 70: The Headless Horseman

"Poof!" Just as he walked into the woods under the influence of the Witch City, Gao Zhen felt a cramping pain in his chest, and a mouthful of blood spat out.

"What's wrong with you? You okay? Shen Xin stepped forward to hold the high pillow that was kneeling on the ground and was constantly gasping, only to see a layer of sweat oozing from his forehead, biting his lip tightly, as if he was enduring some great pain.

"Don't worry, it'll be fine in a while." Gao Zhen stood up and waved his hand at Shen Xin, "Let's go to that castle, and Song Tianxi will explain the law there." ”

Shen Xin looked at him worriedly, and found that the blood bar on the pillow was decreasing at an extremely slow rate, and it was so slow that it only lost a few tenths of a minute of blood. Shen Xin was a little strange, but seeing that Gao Zhen didn't say anything, he didn't want to ask questions, so he just let the Hundred Eyes Ghost walk on the other side of Gao Zhen and protect him.

Gao Zhen knew what was going on, and in the status bar of his game character, the item "Rib Skull Witch Spell" was faintly flickering. This was his reaction as soon as he entered the Wizarding City.

Song Tianxi's magic power and the magic power left by Captain Kidd in his body resonated and echoed each other, but because of his immortal cultivator's body, these two powers were mixed up in his body and entangled. As long as Gao Zhen used his true qi again, it would cause a cramping pain in his chest and spit blood in his mouth.

The three of them walked forward in this strange black forest, looking around vigilantly, they were worried that Gong Nan would deliberately lead them into Song Tianxi's illusion, and then take advantage of this geographical environment to attack them. Gao Zhen knew that in his current state, he was not Miyanami's opponent at all, so he straightened his waist and made a very natural appearance to prevent Miyanami from seeing the flaws.

Hyakmu poked at the high pillow and pointed to a relatively sparsely wooded clearing in front of him, where there were some traces of a fight, and there were a few boxes scattered on the ground.

Gao Zhen squinted his eyes and looked at it, and found that the traces of those fights were very fresh, as if it had just happened, and it was possible that some players hiding in the forest suddenly found themselves shrouded in illusions, panicked, and fought chaotically. The wooden chests that they dropped on the ground after their death were transformed into magical wooden treasure chests under the influence of the illusions of the "Wizarding City".

The Witch City has transformed the entire southern island, in shape, color, and size. And the changes brought about by these illusions are so real that you can't feel the difference between seeing, hearing, or touching.

"We're a little farther away, there may be more people nearby." In the chicken mode, there are always sinister and cunning players who deliberately leave some boxes unpicked, hide aside and wait for others to take the bait, and then secretly annihilate them in one fell swoop. Sit back and act cautiously, coupled with the fact that I am not in good shape now, I decided to be cautious.

Shen Xin was about to go in the other direction, choosing another route to leave the forest and head to the castle. As soon as she turned around, she saw a large knife with a faint green light slashing at her.

"Be careful!" With a quick hand, he pushed her away, and the big knife slashed right between them, cutting a huge ravine into the ground covered in black moss.

Gao Zhen, Shen Xin and the Hundred Eyes Ghost retreated quickly, scattered, and hid behind the three big trees.

Only then did they have a chance to look up and take a closer look at what their attackers looked like.

The man was on a ghostly steed, with a blazing green flame on his hooves, a sturdy iron armor all over his body, and a mane and tail around his neck replaced by dark green flames, reflecting the black forest around him in a green glow.

The man on the horse, dressed in medieval knight armor, shining silver, dark black cloak without wind, holding a long-pole broadsword in his hand, the knife body is engraved with angular ice crystal patterns, and the knife surface is actually condensed with a layer of frost, the frost reflects the dark green ghost fire, which looks strange and extraordinary.

If there is any strangeness about this man, it must be this man's head, because he has no head at all. At the neckline of his armor, there was nothing, except for a flash of green light, like the aurora on the arctic sky.

"Hahahaha! You are sitting on the mountains and rivers! I'm stepping through mountains and rivers! I'll break you through today! The headless horseman had no head, and naturally no mouth, and his laughter came from somewhere, so muddy and eerie that people couldn't help but stand on end.

"Breaking through mountains and rivers? It's Guan Jian who tramples out the clan! How did he become like this? Shen Xin recognized the identity of the Headless Horseman and looked at the high pillow behind another big tree in horror.

"It's Song Tianxi's witchcraft, in the Witch City, not only objects, but also living people will be changed by illusion." Taka explained.

"Illusion? Do you mean to say that in fact, he is still Guan Jian, but our spirits have been affected and we have hallucinations, so we see these unusual things? Shen Xin asked.

"I used to think so," Gao replied to her, "but today I realized that things are not so simple. ”

Shen Xin wanted to continue asking, but the Headless Horseman had already arrived on the ghost steed, and the large knife in his hand was raised, and he looked diagonally behind the tree. Shen Xin was shocked, the "instantaneous step" was already blessed under his feet, and he moved quickly, and fled far back.

As a result, the Headless Horseman only flicked a sword, and with a twist of the blade, swept out, and approached the high pillow hiding behind another large tree.

Gao Zhenxin screamed, he had lost the ability to use his true qi, and at this time, there was no way to evacuate quickly, and he had no strength to use his skills to counterattack, so he could only shrink down and hold the green spirit blade in front of him.

"Click!" The Headless Horseman saw that the sweeping sword was dodged by Gao Zhen, and immediately turned the blade around and slashed downward, just looking at the green spirit blade that Gao Zhen was blocking in front of him. Gao Zhen instinctively shook his arms, and he felt that there was a thousand catties of power pressing on him, although the green spirit blade blocked the headless horseman's knife, but the hidden power in this powerful slash was actually cut in half by the bulletproof helmet worn on Gao Pillow's head in the air.

A streak of blood flowed from his torn forehead and trickled down his eyes. From the computer screen, it looks like it's covered with a red silk veil. A layer of ice crystals had formed around his wound, and the cold was so cold that it tingled even more.

"Thunder!" The Headless Horseman grabbed the reins and turned around, finding that Shen Xin had already jumped into the air, he held the blade and raised it upwards to resist Shen Xin's attack. The electric light pill came out of its sheath, and thousands of thunderbolts fell at the same time, and the huge golden flash turned into a blade, slashing from top to bottom, and the thunder was thunderous.

"Crackling!" Some subtle sounds came from the Headless Horseman's body, and I saw some small golden lightning appear on his body, jumping around on his silver armor, the Headless Horseman felt that he was paralyzed all over his body, unable to move, Shen Xin's move came, as if he didn't want to take it, he had to take it.

With a loud bang, the thunder slashed at the blade of the Headless Horseman's block, and his ghostly steed neighed, its front hooves raised and raised, and its hind hooves sank deep into the mud due to the power of the thunder.

Shen Xin fell from the air, panting heavily, she had just used all her strength with the knife, making herself weak now, but when she looked up, the headless horseman's blood had only dropped a little.

"Hahahaha, is this all you have to do? I didn't expect you to be so vulnerable. The Headless Horsemann laughed.

Already lifted up by the Hyakmu Ghost, he picked up a stone from the ground while the Headless Horsemann spoke, and threw it above the Headless Horseman's empty neck. As he expected, the stone flew straight over without touching anything.

"Unarmed? Start smashing people with stones? Is the accuracy still so low? The Headless Horseman laughed loudly, pulled the reins again, turned around, raised the broadsword in his hand and slashed at the high pillow again.

Gao Zhen had already prepared and ran backwards, and he said as he ran: "I wasn't sure yet, but I finally figured it out after a try." The illusion of the Witch City does not affect people's spirits and make people hallucinate, but directly attaches the magic power to everything in the city, forcibly changing and shaping. ”

"So you just threw the stone to do a test, if you hit him in the head, it proves that it's just your eyes that deceive you, everything around you is just an illusion, if you don't hit, it proves that the magic power of the Witch City is attached to his head and forcibly disappears." Shen Xin heard Gao Zhen's words and said his understanding.

"You're right, if you want to defeat him, you just need to remove the magic power from his body first." Gao Zhen suddenly turned around and pushed the Hyakmu Oni, who had been running away with her, forward, causing her to face the Headless Horseman head-on.

Hyakmu blinked, although he knew what he wanted to do, but this kind of push his teammates in front of him was really shameful!
