Chapter 563: The Culprit (Part II)
Jim pressed Betty under him, ready to do further offensive, but he suddenly stopped, and then Marston's hoarse voice rang out, "Who is it?" ”
What answered Marston was a pale blue thunderbolt, and with the sound of the "zizi" current, the entire dark cave was illuminated.
Marston was startled and jumped up from Betty's body, but the blue lightning suddenly struck him with a sharp turn as if it had eyes.
"Boom!"
Thunder light knocked Marston's body in half, and a powerful electric current exploded from his back, turning his clothes into charcoal.
In the darkness, Marston's furious voice was heard, and he disappeared in place with a "brush", rushing in the direction where the blue electric light was emitted.
The next second, Betty heard only Marston shout. Immediately afterward, she heard Marston let out a groan of pain.
When Betty was confused, a "tent" sound sounded one after another, which was the sound of hitting the human body.
After those voices rang out, Marston's screams were heard continuously.
After a minute, the terrible blows finally stopped, and the dark cavern suddenly returned to calm.
Who won?
Betty waited nervously, but soon the answer came to her, it was Marston who lost, as her body had regained her mobility.
"Dada!"
Marston's sound of retreating sounded, he seemed to be injured a lot, and when he reappeared in Betty's vision, it was as if he had been hit by something. Under the rags. The surface of the pale skin. Left a shocking fist print.
Marston looked at the direction of the deep passage with a blank gaze, the blood-red flame in his left eye socket was beating non-stop, and his hoarse voice was full of resentment, "I didn't expect you to find it so soon?" ”
"I didn't expect you to be the final boss."
With the sound of footsteps, a slender figure walked out.
"Ruan Chi?"
When the man approached, Betty covered her mouth and looked at him in disbelief.
"Betty, are you scared? Sorry, a little late. Ruan Chi looked at her with a smile. Then he took out a cloak from the system backpack and draped it over the girl's almost naked body.
At that moment, Betty's mind went blank, and tears welled up on her face before she knew it.
Almost instinctively, she lunged at him with incredible speed and threw herself into his arms at once. Immediately after, an earth-shattering howl sounded from his arms.
"Don't worry, it's fine." He gently touched her head.
It's okay not to say anything, but as soon as she finished speaking, Betty hugged his waist tightly and cried even louder.
Never mind. It's better to let her cry as much as she wants, so as not to have any psychological shadows in the future.
Two minutes later. Betty's crying slowly subsided. It's just that the person couldn't stand at all as if she had collapsed, so Ruan Chi had to put his arm around her waist to help her support.
Seeing Mao Erniang's still trembling body, Ruan Chi's heart couldn't help but sink, if he hadn't taken a quick step first, I'm afraid something unimaginable would have happened.
In an instant, a trace of killing intent rose in Ruan Chi's heart.
"Jim, I don't understand why you're with this guy, but you almost hurt Betty just now." Ruan Chi raised his eyes and stared at the man in front of him.
"Right...... I'm sorry. Jim's voice rang out again, his tone trembling, he was clearly quite conscious, and he was regretting what he had done.
"What do you mean? Brat? He's your rival, and Nima actually told him he's sorry? Marston's voice rang out, his anger rushing at the same time.
"I ......"
"Enough, it seems that you are still unreliable, this matter should be solved by the old man himself."
"No, Marston, you can't do that?"
Jim's voice suddenly became frightened, and not only that, but Jim's body, which belonged to him, kept shaking, and his whole body seemed to be convulsed.
"Hehe, boy, you can sleep in peace for a while, and when you wake up, it will be over." Marston said in an eerie voice.
"Bastard!" Jim roared angrily and made a final struggle, but in the end, he was completely controlled by Marston, and before he lost consciousness, he shouted at Ruan Chi, "Ruan Chi, protect Betty!" ”
Jim's voice stopped abruptly, and his body finally stopped shaking, bent down like a bow, and slowly stood on his own.
Half of Jim's face, which had belonged to him, suddenly shrank rapidly, and his skin, muscles, and eyeballs peeled off at a rate visible to the naked eye, as did his body.
It was as if he had taken off his flesh and skin, and after a while, he revealed an eerie and terrifying skull.
"Whew!"
He tore off the pieces of his clothes, which were still almost scorched by the Titan Arrow, revealing a skeleton that remained. At this time, Jim has completely turned into a blood skeleton, and the name on its head is the messenger of death.
"Sure enough, you spread those zombie poisons recently? The undead attack in the Kingdom of Bostan is the culprit of you? Ruan Chi showed a sudden realization expression and said to the blood skeleton that had just completed its transformation.
"Giggles!"
The Blood Skull moved its neck, its two eyes that had completely turned into blood-colored fireballs flashed with terrifying light, and it laughed with a quacked smile, "It's still the best way to look like this, only by completely taking over this body, can the old man's strength be fully brought into play." ”
The hoarse voice is none other than Marston himself.
"What did you do with Jim?"
Betty was nervous when she witnessed this change in Ruan Chi's arms, although Jim almost hurt her, but in her mind, Jim was just bewitched by the terrible necromancer in front of her.
"That useless thing has been temporarily sealed by me, and this body now belongs to the old man." Marston chuckled.
"Betty, get out of here, Rachel and the others are waiting for you outside." Ruan Chi suddenly said sternly to Betty.
Cat-Eared Niang looked at Jim, who had turned into a blood skeleton, and then looked at Ruan Chi, and finally nodded obediently and walked to the side, but before leaving, she hesitated and said, "Ruan Chi, you must save Jim." ”
"I don't need you to say this, I'll do it too, because I want him to apologize to you personally." Ruan Chi said with his back to the girl.
Waiting for Betty to leave, Ruan Chi pulled out the magic sword at his waist.
"I really didn't expect that Duncan guy didn't completely wipe you out, but I'm curious, how did you survive back then?"
"Truly, why did the old man survive?" Marston smiled, "The old man was indeed almost killed by the Bloody Hand Knight Duncan, but the God of Chaos does not seem to abandon the old man, it left the old man a way to live, this kid's body can actually contain a trace of the old man's soul that was almost dissipated at that time." It is because of him that the old man was reborn. ”
"So, Jim is being used by you?"
"Utilization? It's not, the old man and him are mutually beneficial, if it weren't for the old man, he would still be a low-level zombie who is muddy and can only bite people. Also, there is no old man? Where can he take revenge? ”
"Revenge?"
"Uncle, the old man forgot to tell you, just now you said that the old man is the culprit who spreads the corpse poison, which is completely wrong, because he is going to do this, but Jim's kid, the purpose of his doing this is just to take revenge on the Bostan Kingdom that killed his companion."
Ruan Chi was stunned for a moment, and then understood.
Howard and Jim's brother Punk, as well as the wanderers who lived in the Fraudster's Wasteland, were killed at the hands of Count Argento in the Kingdom of Postan.
In this way, Jim seems to be forced to cooperate with Marston in order to take revenge.
It's no wonder that zombies spreading corpse poison can appear on the borders of the Kingdom of Bostan, as well as the fog of war, all of which are revenge agreements between Jim and Marston.
"Yes, the old man has another unfortunate news for you, the old man has reassembled an army of zombies and bypassed the Edagas steppe, and at this time, the refugees who escaped from Saipan should be surrounded. This is the first batch of sacrifices, which can be regarded as some sweetness from the old man to this stupid boy who is bent on revenge. Marston said, a triumphant expression on his face, "Haha, you can't think of it, right?" Now it's too late for you to rush back and save them. ”
"I think you're mistaken, I'm not interested in the life or death of the people in the Kingdom of Bostan or Saipan." Ruan Chi helped his forehead.
“……”
"Thank you so much for answering so many of my questions, but now, you can die." Ruan Chi grinned, and the person then took out a gold coin.
Marston's face changed, and he snorted coldly, "Little ghost, don't think that if you increase your strength so much, the old man will be afraid of you?" The last time we fought was the old man's carelessness, but now it won't. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, Marston suddenly shouted, and the flames floating in the center of the cave suddenly rose wildly, instantly illuminating the entire cave.
The cage made of bones appeared behind Marston, and the mountain-tall corpses inside suddenly emitted a large amount of black smoke and climbed up one by one.
When Ruan Chi saw those corpses, he immediately recognized them, all of them were those refugees who disappeared tonight, and it turned out that they were all good deeds done by Marston.
"Uncle, are you going to use this low-level zombie against me? Isn't that too contemptuous? Ruan Chi helped his forehead, and the gold coin between his fingers shot out directly-
11271,-10998,-11231……
A row of numbers floated up, and the zombies who had just crawled out of their cages were shattered by the lightning of the Titan Arrow, and their severed limbs exploded to the ground.
"Haha, do you think the old man really only has these tricks? Little ghost, when the old man fought on the battlefield a thousand years ago, you were not weaned. ”
Without warning, the zombies that crawled out of the bone cage all exploded into a cloud of blood with a "poof" sound. (To be continued......)
