Chapter 372: The so-called arrogance
The looming transparent armor seemed to be a piece of armor.
The armor took on a hideous shape, thin only in key areas, the knees, elbows, breastplate, and abdomen, and around the perimeter of the armor, spiky strips extended along Agnes' limbs.
It's like a trapped beast entangled in iron bars.
Then, those strips were suddenly tightened!
Agnes' thighs and arms were all scarred by piercing, blood dripping down and then quickly absorbed, and it didn't take long for the wounds to heal, and the transparent iron thorns that had soaked up the blood, emitting a faint red light, slowly shrank back into the armor.
Agnes's already fair face appeared a sickly pale, but the oppressive power she brought to people increased sharply.
The Stalker swallowed, and every cell in his body went into combat mode.
He knew what this transparent armor represented, the armor was called "Strangulation Gong", it was a rare "loyalty artifact", this artifact was a famous existence in history, and it had never served only one master.
But this does not mean that the strangled duke is really "loyal".
It is not armor in the true sense of the word, it is more similar to a contract, it has no substance, it can only be summoned, and the way to obtain it is to kill the person who owns the strangulation duke, if the owner of the strangled duke dies naturally, then it will be attached to the nearest intelligent creature with the strongest vitality.
This armor eats away at the owner's health and has no defensive function, but instead greatly increases the owner's strength, causing irreversible damage to the user and hastening the user's death with each use, but its power increase is also permanent.
It's like making a deal with a demon in exchange for power.
It was once recorded that its owner was a seven-god, but then the seven-god died, and this artifact fell into the hands of the demons, and it has always been rumored that the owner of the current strangulation is Agnes, so it seems to be true.
"Let's get started! Carry out the execution! Agnes said coldly, raised her hand, and shouted the name of the trick - "The Sharp Pile of Punishment!" ”
After saying this, countless sharp, metallic tall spikes continued to emerge from the ground, layer upon layer, like mushrooms after a rain, in front of Agnes, spreading forward in a large area.
The sound of spikes breaking through the ground rubbed against the eardrums, as if they were about to split them.
The figures of the Stalker and the Lich King flickered between the stakes, the staggered stakes collided together, extending and growing, and in just a few tens of seconds, thousands of meters of wilderness were covered by the Stakes of Nari, looking down from the sky, it looked like a monstrous forest made of black metal stakes, growing wildly.
Eventually, the sound stopped, and Agnes was left with only the Lich King and the Stalker.
If it is more accurate, the only one left is the stalker.
The large number of undead soldiers and death knights brought by the Lich King hung silently on sharp stakes, pierced to pieces, and their bones were crushed.
The Lich King stood in the middle of the "forest", looking at the scene in front of him, and the hand holding the sword of love trembled slightly.
The sky was densely packed with dead corpses, and the Sword of Undead Domination couldn't feel any corpses that could be summoned, even those underground, they were smashed by sharp stakes, and now he was just a warlock who was good at using ice spells.
"Are we really going to fight?" The Lich King asked.
His voice was as hoarse as ever, but the Stalker could sense that this time it was really hoarse.
"We don't have a choice, but luckily we have a helper."
"Who?" The Lich King asked in surprise.
The Stalker was silent, and nodded his chin at Felik in the distance.
"Now we're three to one."
The Lich King understood what the Stalker meant, but he was still a little uneasy, "You're alone, is that okay?" ”
"If you're doing well, I can."
The Lich King couldn't see the Stalker's expression hidden in the fog, he couldn't guess the other party's thoughts, and now it was too far from the original plan, it was just a statement, but it turned out to be a rebellion.
The Stalker, on the other hand, seems to have known for a long time.
And when the black goat died, he also behaved very strangely, could it be that he had thought of all this a long time ago?
Did the Stalker want to kill Agnes in the first place?
With so many doubts, the Lich King couldn't think much about it, no matter what the Stalker thought at first, it was now meaningless, whether intentionally or not, he was already on the opposite side of Agnes, and the only options in front of him now were-
Fight Agnes alone, or with the Stalker.
In the distance, Agnes beckoned to Felik, and the stakes rose from the ground, sealing Felik inside in a conical shape.
The Lich King, who was about to act, withdrew his step: "Well, depending on the current situation, your plan is useless. ”
"It's okay, we still have backup, trust me." Stalker said.
He also has a hole card, and that is the promise from the Dark Oracle.
The Stalker remembered the words of the oracle in his mind, "When I am sure that with my help, you can kill Agnes, and when that time comes, I will help you." ”
If it weren't for the words of the Dark Oracle, how would he dare to fight Agnes, but now, with the promise of the Dark Oracle, who is on par with the Demon King, he has the guts, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
"Now, you're at the end of your rope."
"It's a hard mouth, and it's like your original sin." The stalker let out a sneer and slowly paced out of the stake forest.
"But actually, you get the idea...... You don't deserve the original sin of arrogance! ”
Agnes's pupils shrank suddenly, and the hand holding the Scarlet Queen tightened.
……
The besieged Felik was in the dark, and he knew that this was Agnes' measure to protect himself.
Presumably a judgment made to prevent oneself from being attacked.
But if you think about it, it should be better, the Lich King has no undead follower, and the only one who can pass two moves with Agnes is the Stalker, and the Lich King doesn't have too fast movement speed, in that case, it's actually better to let him run.
But Agnes is not wrong in doing this.
"She's definitely going to win." Felik muttered to himself.
He had no doubt about this, not only because of Agnes's original sin of being invincible alone, but also because of her strangulation.
At present, there are only two Four Emperors left, and the Dark Divine Envoy has not chased after him, so it should not be long before he can be killed.
The level of the Demon King and the Dark Oracles is the same, and presumably the Dark Oracles will not attack easily.
That's what Felik still thinks.
But he soon realizes that this is just wishful thinking on his part.
