Chapter 31: The Battle of Novo and Shadow
The Ghost Commander had never thought that an ordinary fire magic could cause them such a huge amount of trouble. This is also why humans can always stop so many ghost armies. Of course, this is extremely demanding on the caster, and it also takes a huge amount of strength to form such a large sea of fire, so that those ghosts below the first order of strength cannot participate in the battle at all.
"Human, you're smart, but that's the end of it. Even if it's just the three of us, we can defeat you at the peak of your strength, not to mention that you're already running out of oil, right?"
It was right, and now Nou was gasping for breath, his face was slightly pale, in fact, he didn't have much strength left. However, there was a calmness in his eyes, and although he had done his best to keep them here, it was obvious that he still had a backhand.
He didn't say anything, just silently gathered the last few breaths, ready to fight at any time.
The three ghost commanders moved, their bloodthirsty and terrifying red glows, and then quickly pounced on his position. The ghost leader who was the leader of them suddenly cracked the surface, and four or five long prickly hairs emerged, stabbing in the direction of Nuo.
Luckily, only one of the three Ghost Commanders has an ability, and if all three have the ability, No, guessing that he will die if he lasts less than a minute at most.
No, I can't die. Nuo secretly said in his heart: You must buy enough time for Ei, and you must hold on until dawn to win. Right now...... There are still more than two hours before the sun rises, and he must resist it! He gritted his teeth, he had to hold back these three second-order strength ghosts, and he couldn't let them harass the shadow.
Nuo silently mobilized his strength, and then his eyes opened, and the eyes of disillusionment like death descended proudly scanned the audience!
Eye of Disillusionment, which is a very high-level ability. Because it has a terrifying lethality, even Nono himself has not yet explored his full potential. However, he can now master several abilities: Imprisonment, which can imprison people within the caster's control, and the imprisoned person cannot move in any way during this time, but the time is more or less proportional to his strength, and the Extreme Ray, which is the main means of attack. As the name suggests, it can emit undetectable rays that can devastate the surface of enemy creatures, and finally the ability, Dreamland. This is a new ability that Nou has only recently discovered, and it is a kind of domain power that can take enemies into battle in dreams. However, dreams are reality, and if you die in a dream, your soul will also be wiped out, and there is no possibility of resurrection. This is more or less in keeping with the name of the ability Eye of Disillusionment.
Nou has been doing his best to regain his strength, but there are no consumables that can quickly restore his strength overnight. He can only drag on for as long as he can.
He took a deep breath and watched as the three ghost commanders were rapidly lunging towards him, their bloodthirsty light rapidly amplifying, and even their terrifying smiles could be seen clearly. Although they can't draw the power of the living from the Anomalous, the strong who kill the humans can be rewarded by the Superior of the Night, which is enough to make them crazy.
The monstrous fire shone on No's face, and even the snow melted with it, but it could not stop the flames in the slightest.
The Eye of Disillusionment glowed brightly, instantly blinding everyone. This frightened the Ghost Commanders, who retracted their attacks and quickly found shelter to dodge, fearing that the dazzling light would be the sun's rays. But after a while, they poked their heads out and felt it more closely, only to find that the light had not done them any harm.
When the dazzling light faded, all eyes returned to normal. Looking closely, the surrounding environment has changed, although it is still pitch black, and the snow has turned into a continuous drizzle, and it is also slightly cool. All the ghosts found themselves in an inexplicable graveyard, and the fat human man was standing on one of the graves, staring at them coldly.
This is the best effort to use his last remaining strength, and he used the skill Dream Realm to send so many high-level strength ghosts in. However, he has no strength. Now he is no different from ordinary people, even the early stage ghosts of the first order who are cannon fodder can easily kill him. So on what basis did he fight?
"Hehe, human, this trick illusion still wants to trap us here?" said the leader of the ghost, "How much more power do you have now?" Kill you, and we can get out. At that time, the people you want to protect, the efforts you have made to do so will be in vain. Those humans are going to become our own power!" it chuckled.
"Then you can try it. Nuo said lightly. In fact, he didn't have the bottom in his heart, and now he didn't have the slightest strength, so he could only rely on himself to familiarize himself with the environment of the dream realm he had built, and rely on the terrain to deal with them. In order to gain more time and drag it out until the beginning of the dawn, he had to give it his all and not hold anything back...... Of course, it's best if you're still alive. He thought with some extravagance.
His figure swept through the air and disappeared from their view.
"Find this fat human guy and kill him. The leader of the ghost commanded. Those first-order peak strength ghosts came out, but they shrank back in an instant, because they felt that the sea of fire surrounding them had not dispersed, but was only obscured by the illusion and did not manifest.
"Cunning humans. The leader of the ghost leader pondered. It didn't know how much power that damn human powerhouse had left to deal with them. Although he couldn't fight the three of his brothers alone, it was better to be careful.
"Boss. The ghost commander of one of the first- and second-order strengths smiled contemptuously: "You don't need to care about what that human thinks, anyway, we will eat him steadily, so we might as well play with him." โ
"Nope. The leader of the ghost clan shook his head and said, "He just wants to delay the time, until the sun rises." At that point we will have to leave. โ
"The sun rises? No, we're not going to give him that time. Quickly find him, and cut off his head, and we can go to the credit again...... What a strange word. โ
Because only the three of them can move normally and freely, but in order not to waste time, they decided to pull out these tombstones in front of them one by one, so that the human mouse has nowhere to escape, no place to drill!
......
Outside of the illusion, Shadow is struggling to defend against the ghosts that are surging from countless directions. Their strength was not strong, but hundreds, thousands, thousands, like waves crashing one after another, leaving her without a respite. Shadow's ability is Shadowless. Although it has not yet reached the speed of light, it is still easy to shuttle back and forth in this stadium of only 30,000 square meters.
The power of any ordinary punch will transform into an incredibly powerful, unimaginable force after carrying a rapid speed, and Shadow can easily carry a kick, or a punch, dozens or even hundreds of ghosts can fly far away. But it's also because of the sheer number of them, and the ferocious power is shared among each of them, resulting in Shadow basically not killing any of the demons. It was like a punch or a kick into the waves, which might temporarily stop them from progressing, but like water, they kept surging again, again and again, as if they were tireless in charge.
Dense dark green eyes, deafening roars of excitement, those who were once human beings, but now they have become ghosts, poor, high and low, healthy or sick, ugly or beautiful, they are all the same nowโthey are at the bottom of the darkness, they are slaves of the superiors, they are the bravest and most fearless soldiers, they only follow the orders given to them by the superiors, and then again and again, tirelessly and irregularly, sweep through the crumbling last of their survival.
Only by living can we continue to evolve. This is the path of all ghosts.
They charge wildly, then are knocked away by the shadows, and then join the raging tide again. Even if the shadow was a second-order powerhouse, the flickering back and forth space coupled with the terrifying speed of her own explosion caused the coat that Dust bought for her to gradually melt like snow with the friction of the air, leaving only the combat uniform she usually wore inside. This combat suit is good at everything, it is difficult to be like ordinary clothes, it will not burn out in its own high-speed activities, and it is close and comfortable, but the only fly in the ointment is that it is not cold-proof, not at all.
Although friction can generate heat, and she constantly bursts into the air with one small sound after another, she also needs warmth and breathing, and she also needs to engage in high-intensity combat at high speeds, which is not proportional to the strength of slow recovery, which also causes her to be unable to continue at all.
Apocalypse City ushered in a new day, but the snow is getting heavier and the bell rings for the new year, but it will also be taken to the grave and reduced to a part of the darkness. Shadow's breathing began to become rapid, and her body felt colder and colder, but she couldn't stop her body, she had to persevere, switching back and forth in all directions of this huge gymnasium, knocking those ghosts that were about to move into the air or knocking them down, so that they could not enter the gymnasium in the first place, and attack those ordinary people who were not yet able to move.
In fact, it was the right choice to freeze them in place, and the hundreds of guards had already left their jobs and chose to hide in the corner in a cower, and then they couldn't hold back the desire in their hearts, and turned into a devil more terrifying than those ordinary men. It's right not to let them act, who knows if those ordinary people will be so scared that they want to escape directly, and then directly become rations in the devil, waste utilization, and then cannon fodder in the dark.
Shadow sensed the monstrous power of the flame elemental on Nuo's side, and his physical strength gradually became exhausted. How long will it last? a minute, five minutes, or how long? She didn't know the answer, because she gradually felt that the power in her body had been exhausted, and the source could not withstand such a terrifying consumption of power.
It's not despairing. Shadow muttered to himself: Dust, did you receive my message?
The ghost tide is still the same, and the graceful posture of the phantom continues, but the speed of rotation has become a little slower......
How long can it last?
