Chapter 29: What should I do if the boss is too strong?
Just as the Hidden Blade was about to pierce Arudo's body, a crystal clear light blue ice shield appeared in front of Dio out of thin air, and quickly blocked the fatal blow for Arudo. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Dio's brows furrowed, and he directly stretched out his left leg and kicked the ice shield, and quickly turned over and retreated with the help of this force.
After landing on the ground, feeling the chill coming from his left leg and left arm, Dio's brow furrowed even tighter.
(Looks like this boss is going to be a lot more troublesome than I thought.) )
At this time, the middle-aged butler slowly walked between Arudo and Dio, and a voice belonging to Arudo came out of his mouth.
"It's a little guy?" After looking Dio up and down for a while, the middle-aged butler's face flashed with disdain, "Is there no one in the Assassin Guild anymore?" You actually sent such a small character who is less than the second order to hunt me down? ”
In the eyes of "Yarudo", who is already in his thirties, Dio, who seems to be only about sixteen years old, is indeed a little guy. And limited by Aisha's strength, the strength that Dio can show now is indeed only about the first order, so "Yarudo" didn't take Dio in his eyes at all.
However, listening to the taunt of "Arudo", Dio replied seriously: "In fact, I only came to assassinate the fallen knight Viscount Bolton. And I've done it successfully, haven't I? ”
Dio, who seemed to respond to "Yarudo's" words casually, quietly observed Yarudo himself, who was still holding a transformation ceremony not far away.
And the detection results of the system elf Bart made Dio's heart sink.
【Yarudo Jota】
[Level: Lv46.] 】
[Race: Human (Demon Half-Blood)]
[Occupation: Intermediate Water Magician (4th Ring), Junior Demon Warlock (3rd Ring)]
[Skill: Unknown]
[Note: This person is extremely dangerous!] 】
Since the S-class challenge task has been completed by Dior, the system elf Bart has also successfully turned on the navigation system, and the original detection and other abilities have also been improved. As a result, Bart has unearthed a lot more enemy intelligence than before.
However, looking at Arudo's information, Dio's heart was a little bitter.
(Intermediate strength, and a dual professional...... It's really a big problem now. )
Although after the completion of the challenge mission, Dio was already able to use all his strength. However, there has always been such a thing as "hole cards" that can be used as much as possible. But if he doesn't exert all his strength, relying on his current strength alone, Dio really doesn't have much confidence that he will be able to defeat Yarudo.
And just as Dio was hesitating to use all his strength, the middle-aged butler, who was controlled by Arudo's will, heard Dio's words, but his eyes lit up suddenly: "In other words, except for you, no one else in the Assassin Guild knows my true identity...... Then I can't let you run away like that! ”
After saying this, the middle-aged butler suddenly let out a series of extremely miserable howls. In the midst of the miserable howl, the skin on the middle-aged butler's body was directly cracked, and a pair of horns slowly grew on his head, and a bone tail slowly stretched out from his back. Not only that, but its right arm was directly twisted and transformed into a bone sword, and its left arm was expanded into a giant claw.
In just the blink of an eye, the original middle-aged butler was directly transformed into a monster by Arudo!
[Demon Infantry: Lv. 16]
【Race: Demon】
[Weakness: Light attack.] 】
[Innate ability: none]
[Note: This thing is just a miscellaneous soldier at the bottom of the Demon Realm.] 】
After being transformed into monsters, the demon infantry seems to have lost the ability to speak. It roared and slammed into Dio.
"It's just a first-order monster, you are underestimating me......
Dio shook his head, and with an extension of his right hand, a large number of dark elements quickly converged into his hand, forming a black chain.
The Seven Deadly Sins: The Hook of Greed.
Throwing the chain directly towards the demon infantry, Dio watched the "greedy" claw tightly grasp the demon infantry's left foot, and then pulled it back.
With a "bang", the demon infantry, who had suddenly lost their balance, had been pulled to the ground by Dio with their backs facing the sky.
Controlling "Greed" to wrap around the legs of the still struggling demon infantry, Dio jumped up, and while his feet stepped heavily on the arms of the demon infantry, the hidden blade on his left arm also pierced the neck of the demon infantry.
The right foot that stepped on the left arm of the demon infantry slammed into force, and while Dio pulled back, his left arm also slashed outward, cutting a large hole in the neck of the demon infantry.
But to Dio's surprise, the demon infantry that was spurting blood at the neck had not lost the ability to fight back!
The demon infantry stood up on its left claw, its bloodshot eyes staring at Dio as it slowly raised its right arm.
"Poof!"
With a muffled sound, the demon infantry spewed out the bone sword on his right arm directly towards Dio!
Such an attack certainly does not threaten Dio. With just a slight turn, Dio had already pierced the Hidden Blade on his left arm into the heart of the demon infantry while dodging the attacking bone sword.
The demon infantryman who was about to grasp Dio with his left claw stiffened, and then he collapsed limply.
Slowly retracting the Hidden Blade that completely penetrated the body of the demon infantry, Dio waved his hand to shake off the blood on the hidden blade, and looked at the corpse of the demon infantry with a somewhat solemn face.
(Is it only after a fatal injury that you are completely incapacitated...... )
Dio, who didn't have time to think about it, looked at Arudo with a somewhat solemn face. Although Dio had already eliminated the demon infantry as quickly as possible, with the time that the demon infantry had delayed, Arudo had successfully completed the ritual.
The magic array that emitted a faint purple light slowly regained its calm, and the corpse of Viscount Bolton, who fell in the magic array, slowly stood up by itself and opened its eyes.
The current "Viscount Bolton" has no pupils in his eyes, only a bloodshot whites of his eyes, which makes people feel a little chill behind their backs.
"It's a pity...... After all, it was made of corpses, and this flesh puppet could only reach the level of the third order after all. Looking at "Viscount Bolton", Arrudo's expression was rather regretful.
However, when he saw Dio, who was staring at him solemnly, there was a hint of surprise on Arudo's face: "You can actually kill my demon infantry...... Looks like you're a little bit stronger than I thought. ”
"It's a pity that your dying throes are pointless!" Arudo waved his staff, and a summoning array quickly appeared at his side, and then a succubus slowly appeared from it.
Without Arudo's order, the succubus smiled and swung the whip in his hand at Dio!
