Chapter 30: First Blood
The pain and blood brought Jack more pleasure than ever before. He licked frantically, as if he had been transformed from a Ripper into a vampire, enjoying the warm blood in his heart, he had gone completely insane.
"It's not what I guessed, I thought you'd scream and pass out."
Amora stood to the side, seemingly disappointed in herself, and her expression was not as charming as she had been with Jack and the other men.
With the sound of her heels tapping on the floor, Belle walked in from outside the living room and into Amora's line of sight.
"Don't put gold on your face, if I hadn't screamed in fright, you wouldn't have noticed."
Amora has a mature mind and sharp tactics, and he does not hesitate to inflict heavy losses on his subordinates in order to make such a decisive attack. Moreover, after such a long time, Barton and Peter have not even arrived, and they must be in trouble, but they don't know what means Amora has prepared to deal with them.
"I really have to do it." Belle said, squinting at Amora.
"It's a bit of a shame that he's so good."
Looking at Jack, who was lying on the floor, his body twisted by pain but still frantically licking the imaginary blood, Amaura said that it was a pity, but there was no sign of it on his face.
"But the most important thing in this world is stupid men, better than this, I can have as many as I want." Amola licked her lips and said, "Those two men who follow you are rare and good, and if you clean you up, you can take them down." β
Hearing her say this, Belle felt a lot more relieved, it seemed that Peter and Clint had not been enslaved by Amora's enchanting magic. But Belle has no way out, she is here to ensure the safety of the two of them.
"I can only take them down after I clean them up, it seems that my ability can restrain you? I didn't even think of it myself. Belle smiled at Amora.
This smile is very beautiful, really beautiful, countless times more beautiful than Amora, which makes the famous seductive witch feel like a great enemy.
"You're trying to disturb my spirit?" Amora pretended to be relaxed and said, "I really don't know how thick the sky is." β
This is more appropriate for Amora herself, who has the power of a goddess of revenge and controls the gem of herself, and is far better at influencing people's hearts and minds than her. Moreover, the ability of mind control is the most proficient type that Belle uses. So Belle is full of confidence, and in the battle with Amora, she firmly occupies the initiative.
"Try again, and you should be successful."
In order to resist Belle's mental interference, Amora has done her best. She would never give Belle another chance.
Under her manipulation, Jack, who was still lying on the ground and struggling before, suddenly got up with all his strength, and pounced again while Belle's attention was focused on Amora.
"I warn you, number one, don't make a surprise attack on me, it's useless."
Relying on her magical instincts and ability to pause time, she calmly dodged Jack as she pounced, and made eye contact with him as she staggered with him.
Jack stumbled and fell to the ground, never able to get back up. He died, from the fierce collision of two powerful psychic energies in the depths of his soul.
He's not a pathetic guy, he's so addicted to serial murders and detective novels that he can't tell the difference between story and reality. After a long time, the stories written by others can no longer satisfy him, and his own pen cannot bring the most authentic and perfect experience in his heart. He chose another way to fill the emptiness in his heart and soul, and he wanted to write the legend of the Ripper himself.
Before Amora found him, he had four lives on his hands. Perhaps he did have a talent for killing, or perhaps the British police were as inefficient and incompetent as rumored to be, and he did exactly what the ripper did. Then, Amora chose him and used magic to help him break through the last mental barrier, and he killed nine people in a row in a month, reaching the peak of his life's happiness.
Whether this kind of person deserves to die or not is not up to Belle. She is not a judge, let alone a god, so she cannot have the power to judge. Faced with a man who wanted to kill her, she did what she had to do and resisted. It's just a little overdone, she wants to defeat Amora's charm magic head-on, but she doesn't expect that Jack's fragile spirit has already been exhausted by Amora's torture, plus the lung lobes are pierced, the result is ......
"You actually killed him!"
Amaura screamed dramatically, and walked up to Jack's body with the exaggerated body movements of a stage play, as if she had seen Juliet after Romeo's suicide.
"Doesn't your conscience hurt!"
She actually squeezed out a few tears, and she cried quite like that.
The first murder was not as bad as Belle thought, and her conscience really didn't hurt at all, but felt as if it was a relief.
"With the first time, I'm not afraid of a second time." "And then, before I finished, and number one, I wouldn't let myself get hurt, but I'm a model, and with a scar on my body, I'm going to lose my job." β
Belle's attitude made Amola quite jealous. According to Hitwell's account, he clearly said that the girl almost had a nervous breakdown when she saw her companion seriously injured and dying, and that she was not a killer of the Hydra that blew up her house. From this, Amora deduced that Belle had never killed anyone, not even an enemy, and that now that Jack had died because of her, she should have had a nervous breakdown.
"Third," Belle continued, her momentum skyrocketing, "who did you just say you wanted to take?" β
Amora's body reacted instinctively before her consciousness, and she stepped away from Jack and retreated towards the window. She was shocked by the sudden burst of momentum on Belle's body, and she was afraid.
It's been so long since Amora can't remember the last time she felt the fear. As an Asgardian, in the eyes of the earthlings, she is an absolute god, a god like Odin and Thor. As long as the corners of her mouth are slightly upturned, she can make the Hydra people bow down to her, she can come and go to S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters without much effort, her physical abilities are far beyond those of earthlings, and her magical attainments are top even in Asgard. She never thought that she would be intimidated by the momentum of a mortal.
Belle is not a mortal, although she has not been able to fully master all the abilities, let alone control her own gems, but this little power of the goddess of revenge is not something that Amora can compete with. What's more, Amora is far away from Asgard at the moment, and she is far away from her main source of magic, and she is far from being the most powerful.
Belle raised her left hand and pointed in the direction of Jack's corpse. A large amount of blood suddenly gushed out from Jack's pierced wound, flying and rushing in the air, gradually converging on Belle's hand, and then compressing, condensing, and shining with a blinding red light.
"If I want to kill you, I'll have to use some special means."
After saying that, the red light gradually dimmed, but Belle had an exquisite blood-red spear in her left hand.
Conventional weapons and energy attacks can't hurt Amora, who was born in Asgard, and the few slightly lethal abilities that Belle currently has are of little use. However, relying on the power of the Nemesis to manipulate reality, using the materials at hand, combined with Belle's memories and imagination, she still found a way to kill the Witch.
Amora stared at the blood spear in Belle's hand, which contained the strongest emotions and desires of Jack, who had died tragically. His soul, full of the thirst for pleasure, the contempt for life, the intense fear that burst out at the last moment before death, the hatred of Amora, the infatuation with Belle, now condensed in the blood spear, became the most vicious curse.
There was no other choice, which was simply not resistible, and Amora turned around and broke the window, and fled.
Before chasing it out, Belle took one last look at Jack's body, which had been drained of blood and was already a little shriveled. She finally remembered where she had seen Jack, and when the First Lady visited Baker Street, he blended in with the crowd of onlookers, staring straight at Belle who was quietly hidden in the entourage. This kind of person will be ignored by others, and it is naturally the magic of Amora. However, he is dead, and Amora's magic is no longer valid.
βfirst bloodοΌβ
Belle suddenly thought of the word, she didn't know the correct use of it, but it was really her first kill.
"It's supposed to be a double kill next, right?"
With that, Belle stepped forward, and when she landed, she was already in front of Amora.
Although Amora fled at full speed, and in the blink of an eye, she had already escaped two blocks away, but she couldn't escape at all. Once Belle is determined to consume, in front of her spatial ability, speed or anything is meaningless.
"Surrender immediately, you can not die."
She said this very domineering line. After all, she hasn't figured out what Amora wants to do, so she won't toss a big circle and cause nine lives, and she specially dressed the deceased as the first lady of the United States, just to lure herself into the bait, right?
"Spatial capabilities? But from Baker Street here, your consumption is not small, right? β
The panicked Amola suddenly calmed down at this moment, she noticed that Belle was bluffing, and saw that Belle was weak, and her enemies were not yet able to harness such a powerful ability. The original helpless escape for her life has now become a turning point for her to turn defeat into victory.
She continued: "With your ability, it will not be difficult to subdue me, so why should you persuade me to surrender?" This means that now you, let alone kill me, you can't use the spiritual magic that you just wanted to disturb my mind, right? β
As soon as Amora spoke, she gathered enough energy to launch a counterattack to blow Belle to pieces.
"Then let's take a gamble, and bet on whether I can kill you," Belle said, holding up the blood spear in her hand, "I don't know if you've heard of the three major illusions in life, the phone rings, he likes me, and ...... I can fight back! You've already hit two. β
Amora didn't understand what that meant, because Belle's next move made her realize that she had made a big mistake, and she desperately tried to make amends, trying to use all the powers she used to attack to defense.
Belle let go of her left hand, and the blood spear that had been gathering for a long time shot out. The body of the spear turned into a sharp blood-red light, and the speed of the moment it came out of his hand broke through the sound barrier, causing a strong shock wave. The spear landed Amora accurately, easily breaking through her defenses, destroying her left arm, piercing her chest, and then draining all of its energy and exploding into a cloud of blood, splashing ink all over the street behind Amora.
This time is very suitable for playing handsome, so Belle reported the name of the skill in two out of ten:
"Sure, the spear that pierces the thorns of death!"
