Chapter 180 Heresy
On the walls of the gloomy corridor on the third floor, several oil paintings hung crookedly. Most of the content of these paintings is distorted and weird, as if the artist has deliberately destroyed them, hiding their meanings and giving people an obscure feeling.
To Sioux City, these quirky paintings were decoration at best, and seemed to him to mean nothing more than to embellish the castle's eerie atmosphere.
However, if Zhu Shubing or Wu Feng were present, they would probably try to find out what was hidden inside, and spend a lot of time searching for these paintings, and even in every room and hall here, they would probably dig three feet into the ground, unwilling to let go of the slightest clue.
Of course, Sioux never thought it was stupid, at least, it wasn't too stupid.
But obviously, those who are familiar with Sioux City know that this labor-type option will not be his first choice - in fact, although he is not a low-IQ martial arts player, it is not too bad for him to use his fists to solve problems most of the time.
After all, it doesn't cost money, and even if he does hang up unfortunately, then it will prove that this task is not suitable for the unemployed.
You know, to make him unable to escape and die, which almost represents the highest level of combat power of the unemployed, at least a three-star boss-level creature, or the same level of lethal danger.
Therefore, when Su Cheng pushed the door out, all he had in mind was actually only one thought, a simple and bloody thought - to fight, to the death.
To be honest, he didn't know exactly what the three or more monsters outside the door were, and he wasn't sure if he would be able to handle this one-on-three battle. But no matter what, it is impossible for him to involve Sinti, who has only five combat strength, into the fight. And this prerequisite also determines that he has to be outside the door, and before the creature decides to break through the door, he takes the initiative to go out to fight.
Entrustment is entrustment, and it is the principle that after you accept it, even if it is difficult and dangerous, it is impossible to give up. What's more, Sioux City didn't think he would die here.
From the beginning of entering the Annogus. No matter how far apart it is from the enemy in terms of hard power, Sioux City has not tasted defeat. So he didn't have to keep believing in anything, and he didn't have to think too much about it.
He's strong, no doubt.
At the moment when Su Cheng pushed the door out, as a senior hunter who was constantly swimming in the mouth of the demonic beast, Su Cheng inexplicably but clearly gave birth to a warning intuition in his heart.
Bang!
At the same time as the door closed, Sioux City didn't even turn his head to look around, his body was already prostrated to the ground as if he were boneless. The next moment, three fierce winds swept with a screaming sound in the place where Sioux City should be. The force was so great that it exploded the air, but it all landed in the air.
Su Cheng, who had never been used to fighting, didn't think much about it, and subconsciously tightened his waist and legs, and the person jumped up from the ground quickly, his body moved like a gyros, and the heavy halberd in his hand slashed at the unknown thing that was still behind him with fierce power.
Sioux City fell to the ground and spun back in one go. The sharp halberd quickly pierced through the air. It's just in the blink of an eye, after a strange touch came from the heavy halberd in his hand. The sound of flesh tearing was heard at the same time, and the rancid cold liquid rained down on his cloak.
Frowning, Su Cheng wondered in his heart - the touch was soft and slippery, but just now it could make a sharp sound of breaking the air, what is this?
The touch that comes from the halberd alone. The information is not complete, and it is difficult for Sioux City to make a judgment based on it. But at the very least, he was sure that he hadn't slain anything like it, and that it was probably even a special monster unique to the castle.
Sioux City didn't do much between the lightning and the fire, after the counterattack hit. He did not rush forward with a knife, but when the opponent's information was not clear, he slammed his left foot and performed a Fiore-style cut step in a fierce and unmatched way, and his body instantly turned into a coherent phantom and rushed to the right, leaving only an illusory figure in the dark corridor that changed direction many times.
Die!
Su Cheng's eyes widened, staring intently at the unidentified creature in front of him. At the same time, his body quickly approached, and the heavy halberd in his hand was not afraid of being seen through, and it slashed out from top to bottom without concealment, bringing a fierce wind in the darkness, which instantly blew the cloak crackling, rolling up the ceiling and the dust and cobwebs on the wall!
The air was cleaved by the heavy halberd's fierce force, and the aura of death was enveloped in the aura of death, and the strange creature tried to retreat into the corridor behind it, struggling desperately to get out of the range of the heavy halberd's attack, but it was nothing more than useless.
No matter how you dodge, its death was doomed the moment Sioux City exploded with its halberd.
When power and explosiveness reach the tipping point of a humanoid, the attack is no longer something that can be dodged with a twist or sideways. At that point, air, the intangible, will be the greatest weapon in the hands of those humanoid monsters.
Clearly, Sioux City, supported by parasitic gear, enchanted gear, various buffs, and the Night Instinct, was on the verge of such a tipping point.
Porphyry.
Finally, the halberd fell heavily, and after a piercing sound of oracle bones cracking and crushing, as if balloons and fruits burst, the flesh shot out under the irresistible force of the huge force, and the sky, the earth, the walls, and the cloak of Sioux City were all stained with dark red rancid flesh in an instant, leaving behind strange unbloomed flowers.
What followed was a foul smell of decay that was not like the living, but a little better than the necromancer. If I really want to describe it, it's a strange smell between life and death.
Instead of slacking off because of the success of killing a monster, Su Cheng slashed off the corpse with a precise horizontal slash with an expressionless face to ensure its death, and then picked up the halberd, while smashing the corpse into the air behind him, he stepped out lightly, and with the blessing of Fiore's cut-off step, he was like a lightning flash, successfully dodging two catapult attacks that could shatter the marble floor!
Dodging the attack that the other party barely kept up with, it was only at this time that Sioux City, which was constantly moving and fighting at high speed, finally retreated to a safe distance. He turned, staring intently at the monster behind him in the haze, and took a closer look.
However, with a single glance, Sioux City's mind was filled with a definite impression of the creature—that it was filthy, unclean.
In fact, this monster is like the creator just trying to use his abstract ideas, piecing together strange and irrelevant things to create this deformed monster.
On all fours, it spits out a long tongue with a sharp tip like a knife, and a dark red shell like a beetle, but it has a humanoid body, as if it were some kind of evolutionary failed race. However, on its body, it is obvious that someone has carved a mysterious totemic symbol, just like a mad believer is worshipping the gods, with an obvious artificial atmosphere.
It is characterized by a filthy and unclean monster that clearly displays aesthetic concepts contrary to those of humans, and has a slender head that looks stupid enough to easily make any human feel disgusted.
This product, which is clearly not part of the kingdom of men, has either been introduced from the wizards of the realm of the dead, or something that is classified as the second greatest sin in the Orthodox Cross diocese.
The second great sin, heretical beliefs.
And Sioux knows very well that at any time when the task you are accomplishing involves a strange religion, the only thing you can be sure of, and must be right, is that things will definitely go in the worst direction, without exception.
"Kill the Hound Xenospecies and get 10 Orthodox Cross Diocesan Merit Points."
"Human reputation +5, low-level xenos will naturally have a slight hatred towards the player."
"Thou hast redeemed a lodger, thou hast received the blessing of the dead, thy strong holiness has been strengthened, and thou hast been 14% away from sprouting."
Is it the type that will enhance holiness?
Su Cheng grinned silently, tore off the cloak that had been corroded with blood with his left hand, raised his head, looked at the monster in front of him that was gradually lying close to the ground, and said to himself:
"Very well, I will redeem you one by one now......" (To be continued......
