Chapter 26: The Poppy Priestess (Part II)

Finn wields his twin swords close to Poppy's huge, bulky body, a seemingly risky tactic similar to the way he fights against losers in the dagger forest, purely using the giant creatures to cover themselves when they are close to him, constantly looking for opportunities to wear down the opponent in order to achieve the ultimate goal of killing the opponent.

Poppy's back burned in pain, and every few seconds the muscles in his waist, abdomen, shoulders, and chest were slashed by Finn's sword.

She screamed and swept around with her bestial arms, and on several occasions tried to use her weight to overwhelm Finn, who was close to her, or to hold the Believer's pendant tightly in her left claw high in an attempt to cast spells.

However, Finn seemed to know more about her newly mutated body than Poppy's own will, and every time she struggled was prejudged by Finn, every time she rolled over and rolled over the floor of the Great Hall, Finn would retreat or roll to the side in time to avoid it, and every time she was about to lift the pendant in her left claw to chant and cast a spell, Finn would appear on the side of her left arm and swing her sword at the claw fingers that clenched the pendant, making it impossible for her to concentrate on chanting with an ugly voice that seemed to be screaming at all times, let alone successfully cast a spell.

In the face of the combined attack of Finn and Lilith, the monstrous priestess of the Shepherd Sect has been in a state of unilateral slaughter since the beginning of the battle, and has almost no power to resist and resist in the eyes of others - if there are others in this underground auditorium except for the three of them.

There are several moments when Poppy hates Fein and is very jealous of Lilith.

She was jealous of Lilith, the black-haired warlock girl who didn't need to chant to cast spells, and that each spell was so powerful that several terrifying fireballs smashed down and almost knocked her to the floor.

She hated Finn, hated how this young paladin with two swords seemed to know her better than herself, her actions were as childish as a large baby in Finn's eyes, and she felt that the result of her trading a few hearts and bodies of middle-level believers had become a ridiculous farce.

Poppy hated Finn and Lilith from the bottom of his heart, and couldn't figure out why the youth and the girl were so skilled at dealing with themselves.

However, with the gradual increase and deepening of the wounds, the time left by reality for her to be depressed and complain finally came to an end. A few minutes later, as Finn's last sword stabbed her in the heart, Lilith blasted the last fireball that shattered half of her face, and the monstrous shepherd priestess finally stopped screaming and swallowed the last faint breath from her throat, her bloody body "thud" and fell to the floor of the auditorium with a loud thud.

The pendant of the high-ranking followers of the Cult of Demons fell from the priestess's loose palm to the ground, and a series of light sounds bounced to Finn's feet.

Lilith interrupted the [levitation technique] and descended from the middle of the underground auditorium, her black eyes looking at the monster's corpse curiously, "Is she dead, Finn?" ”

"Even if it is a true high-level abyss demon, it will be difficult for him to survive with this level of serious injury." Finn picked up the pendant from the floor of the Great Hall and confirmed that Poppy was dead through the game system, then glanced up at Lilith and pulled the Sword of Fire out of the priestess's chest.

The poppy priestess who was on the body of the abyss demon was actually not weak, her long arm after the mutation swept the range was very large, the beast-like claws could kill people in seconds without saying a word, and the left hand that grabbed the believer's pendant could also be used to cast spells with the chant in her mouth at any time, and the overall strength was even a very difficult enemy to deal with in the memory of Finn's previous life when she fought with her.

However, when you know each other better than your enemy, as long as the difference in strength between the two sides is not too large, the balance of victory can basically be said to be in favor of the side that knows the other and the enemy before the war begins.

This is one of the reasons why the poppy that Finn encountered in his life was so completely defeated at the hands of him and Lilith - but not the most important one.

As for the most important reason?

It is not modest to say that it is because Finn and Lilith are already too strong compared to the vast majority of people in the mortal world at this time in this era.

It's not a joke.

In this life, Finn obtained the bloodline power from the Apocalypse Knight Dejia through the [Inheritance and Revelation] talent, in addition to the moonlight greatsword and the furnace sword he obtained later, the six circumference attributes in his attribute panel have been multiplied due to the relationship between natural abilities, even if the current total level of the character is only level 14, but excluding the basic strength of IQ and combat experience, it is completely worthy of a boss-level boss of the same level.

And Lilith, this mysterious warlock girl has not only mastered more and stronger spells through the memories she has recently recalled since she experienced the Obsidian Codex incident, but also has a qualitative leap in the power of casting spells compared to when she first met Finn, which can be fully reflected in her previous performance of directly killing Cerberus with a lightning chain in the basement corridor, and constantly cooperating with Finn's offensive to cast fireball spells on Poppy, and also separating gods to maintain the levitation technique on her own body.

On the way to the royal capital with Orlan's caravan, Finn was bored and curiously thought about one thing, that is, if Lilith could think independently half as well as Arya, would he be able to defeat her in a one-on-one situation with Bol's help?

If this assumption was based on Lilith's fingertips touching the Obsidian Codex, Finn's answer was not suspicious, believing that Lilith at that time must not be his opponent, even if he counted Bol's help.

But now, after emerging from the ancient ruins under the Elbuck volcano in Scorpion Valley, he finds that he no longer understands Lilith's true strength, and thus the answer to this hypothesis has changed from "inevitable" to "God knows", and he is glad that Lilith who genuinely trusts him is his important companion rather than a difficult enemy.

After sighing a little at Lilith's current strength, Finn hung the Moonlight Sword back behind his back, walked slowly around the poppy corpse with the fire sword in his hand, and suddenly crouched down, leaned forward with his arms, and groped his newly free left hand into a cloud of fluff under the poppy's belly.

"Finn, what are you doing?" Lilith stood quietly to the side, looking at the young paladin who was about to bury his head in the monster's corpse, and asked softly.

"Find something." Finn answered Lilith truthfully, thinking that Poppy was a high-ranking believer in the Demon Shepherd's Cult, and it was impossible for him to not even have a magic bag on him that was convenient to carry, right?

As soon as he thought about it in his heart, the hand that reached into the poppy's corpse immediately touched a pack of soft bulging things, and the look in his eyes suddenly lit up, and he immediately grabbed the thing he touched with his left hand and took it back to his eyes, and then sure enough, he saw the item he was looking for in the palm of his hand.

A piece of empty pocket belonging to a poppy. (To be continued.) )
