Chapter 18: Heavy Blows
Charles's face turned pale, and at the last moment, he forcibly shifted his weight so that the light of destruction would not hit his heart, but even then, he lost an arm.
This arm can't be restored in this derivative world, even if it returns to the Demon Slaying Space, it will take a huge price to recover.
A mouthful of blood rushed into Charles's heart, but he forced him to swallow it. He glanced at Shen Xu fiercely, the reason why he never killed Shen Xu was entirely because he thought that Shen Xu couldn't make any waves.
But the reality gave him a slap in the face, and in a single fight, he did completely crush Shen Xu, but Shen Xu found a chance, he would definitely make the enemy regret it!
Looking at Charles's cruel gaze, Shen Xu looked at him without fear, and his lips moved slightly.
Charles understood what Shen Xu meant, and he couldn't help but spurt out a mouthful of blood anymore.
Shen Xu's words are very simple, just now you slashed me, and now I want you an arm!
Charles took a deep breath and wiped the blood from the corners of his mouth, his pupils glowing scarlet, and a strange fluctuation emerged.
[Charles used mental domination on you, and the mental attribute is being determined, and the judgment is passed! ] If you pass the judgment of the willpower attribute, you are immune to this skill. 】
The moment Shen Xu was sober, Charles had already come to his eyes, and he judged that there was a moment of trance, which was a rare opportunity for Charles.
Charles had just checked Shen Xu's attributes, and after receiving the blessing of the Sword Maiden, Shen Xu's spiritual attributes had reached 16 points, which was enough to be immune to Charles's spiritual judgment, so Charles made a decision and immediately attacked Shen Xu.
At this time, Shen Xu had no time to resist, and he immediately activated the Thousand Crane Shield, a shield that emitted a faint light to envelop him.
The next moment, Charles's attack fell, and the shield thinned at a speed visible to the naked eye, and then a fine crack appeared, but it still blocked Charles's blow with all his might.
Charles regretted that if Shen Xu didn't have this shield, he should be able to cut off Shen Xu's head with this knife.
The combined damage of his sword is not enough for 400, otherwise the shield will be shattered, but combat is never an addition or subtraction of statistics.
For example, if Shen Xu has 1000 HP, but he is beheaded by an attack with only 50 HP damage, then his HP will also be instantly cleared, which is the disadvantage of semi-data, once the health characteristics disappear, the HP will also be cleared immediately.
This is also the reason why Charles desperately dodged the Light of Destruction, if the Light of Destruction hits his heart, he is likely to die, even if the amount of damage of the Light of Destruction is simply not enough to instantly empty Charles's health.
Of course, semi-data also has the advantage that it can also make you feel like a human being, otherwise it would be meaningless to just stare at the health value.
All contractors are semi-digital bodies, and the head and heart of low-level contractors are fatal positions, and the rest of the parts are damaged, although it will still be painful, but the amount of damage is calculated by deducting health.
For example, if Charles loses an arm, his combat power will naturally be affected, but there will be no death, only the same amount of health will be deducted, and continuous bleeding will also deduct health.
If he succeeds in stopping the bleeding, the Bleeding Continues debuff will disappear, and with some recovery potions, his health will be restored to 100%, except for his broken arm, which will not be used.
"Count yourself lucky, the next time we meet, I will make you regret sneaking up on me." A hat appeared in Charles' hand and he put it on with one hand.
Shen Xu didn't ask you if you could go, his surroundings were already surrounded by water, these were all soldiers controlled by Charles, and even the Holy Maiden of the Sword was controlled.
The red-eyed Saintess of the Sword drew her sword and wiped her neck.
"Next time, you won't have such good luck again." This sentence was obviously said to Shen Xu, the Holy Maiden of the Sword is dead, and she will not bless Shen Xu next time.
Agatha has also come to her senses, she is also not controlled by Charles, and she is immune to both. However, she can't stop the Holy Maiden of the Sword from committing suicide, which is controlled by Charles.
"I'm going to kill you!" Agatha screamed, but the layers of controlled soldiers held her back.
Charles still left, and the attribute panel showed that he was no longer within a kilometer, and Shen Xu couldn't help but spurt out a mouthful of blood, he was just completely stiff, his palm was already blurred with flesh and blood, and the tiger's mouth was cracked.
He pulled out a bottle of oyster essence and a piece of cod liver oil, and immediately regained 200 HP, then slowly at a rate of 2 per second.
Almost all of the soldiers who were dominated were fainted, and they had been released 200 meters away from Charles, but the huge mental shock still made them faint.
Shen Xu left silently, his current state was too bad.
"Don't go, that adventurer over there." Seeing Shen Xu turn around, Agatha immediately said.
Agatha is a little small, about the size of his chest, and she looks cute, but her force value is very high.
"What's the matter?" Shen Xu was a little vigilant, although it was unlikely that Agatha would make a move against him, but if he really did, it would be difficult to resist in his current state.
"Just thank you... You. Agatha's tone paused, naturally not because of shyness, but because Agatha suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, and the closer this feeling got to Shen Xu, the stronger it became.
"I'm sorry, I suddenly felt a little unwell." Agatha stepped back slightly.
Shen Xu probably guessed the reason why Agatha was uncomfortable, it should be the passive effect of his special skills.
Physics Negotiator (Passive): All skills and basic attacks of the contractor increase the damage of the story character by 10%, and the failure rate of negotiation with the story character is increased by 20%.
The failure rate of negotiations here is a very general statement, and making the characters feel uncomfortable is also one of them.
"What did you come to me for?"
"I want you to come to my team, I will form a team to crusade against Charles in the near future, and with your strength, you are very suitable to be my assistant." Agatha spoke.
The soldiers who came from behind looked at Shen Xu with envy, it was a great blessing in their eyes to be favored by the brave!
"With all due respect, you are building a team to strengthen the enemy, and Charles has the means to directly control them, you should know this." Shen Xu said expressionlessly.
"I know, but what should I do?" Agatha crouched down, her tone lonely.
"We can work together because we all have the same goal, but I need to be away for a day or two, you don't need to look for team-mates in those two days, I don't believe it, you end up finding a place with fewer people to recuperate and adjust to the best condition."
Agatha thought seriously about Shen Xu's words, and only nodded after a moment.
"This is the rendezvous point." Agatha stuffed a note to Shen Xu and turned away without hesitation.
