Chapter 102: Stand-in
Crimson blood flowed all over the ground. The Vampire Prince's sword pierced through Meritgar's body, and the latter did not seem to resemble the amazing rebirth abilities of a vampire or werewolf. He slowly looked at the fatal wound on his body, as if he didn't believe he would be hurt.
"It seems that the so-called artificial life forms are no different from ordinary humans except for the fact that they can rely on some side ways to prolong their lives. Faced with such a scene, the Vampire Prince sighed a little disappointed.
With a shrunk of his arm, the prince drew his sword back, allowing the lifeless body to fall to the ground along with his unfulfilled ambition.
"Do you really think so?"
An incredible voice appeared behind the Vampire Prince, and it belonged to Meritgar, who had fallen to the ground and died.
Before he could make the prince turn around, a strong impact had already taken effect on him. It was also a random palm, and the second time it knocked the vampire prince away.
"What's going on? I killed him. The prince looked at the ground, and the bloodied corpse was still there, so what was the sacredness of the Merit Gar who appeared behind him?
No, the corpses are drying and then turning to ashes. It wasn't just the corpses that had disappeared, the blood that had covered the ground and stained the sword had also turned a dry black, as if it had existed many years ago.
"Was that just an illusion?" Saint-Angel had almost exhausted her body after casting the "Rose Blade", but she could still see what was happening around the Vampire Prince. Almost as soon as the "Endless Sigh" passed through Meritgar's body, another Merit Gar appeared behind the Vampire Prince.
"No, it's not an illusion, it's a physical stand-in. However, Owen, who was further away, came to a very different conclusion.
"'Thousand Layers Clone'! That's the Battle Spirit Technique of the Paladin Merit Gar. But he obviously didn't burn his fighting spirit. The Pope seems to have remembered something, too.
At this moment, among the hundreds of crystal coffins of the Holy Coffin, one of the coffins shook violently, and the magic crystal that constituted the coffin was shattered like glass, and the body of the Pope's Holy Body, which was originally lying in the coffin, lost its luster with the soul bead in its mouth, and the whole dried corpse turned into dust and dissipated into the air, leaving only luxurious funeral goods.
"Could it be that this guy's doppelganger is essentially the remains of the previous pope buried here?" the current Pope Freio I felt a chill, could this be the fate he was about to face?
"Haha...... You're right. The 114 popes lying here, including the 115th who is still alive, are all my stand-ins. If you want to kill me completely, you'll have to kill me 115 more times. And for you, who have taken my life with such hardships, are you capable of doing this?" The calm laughter symbolized that despair had just begun.
St. Angel regained her body slightly, and she lurked behind him silently, taking advantage of Meritgar's triumphant assertion of her superiority.
But her intentions were detected from the very beginning by Meritgar, who did not even bother to turn back, and with a wave of her hand, the wind of her palm knocked St. Angel into the air.
The moment he struck St. Angel away, the ancient two-handed heavy sword was swung to his neck. "I'll kill you as many times as you have lives. "The Vampire Prince decisively seized the moment to launch a counterattack.
"Okay, the scar forgot the pain. Meritgar smiled contemptuously, and with his other hand he raised slightly, unloading the "endless sigh" with just the palm of his flesh, and then patted it on the prince's shoulder.
"I see it, it's magic!" After another close contact, the Prince of Vampire was already keenly aware that Merit Gaal was able to knock him and St. Angel away, not by pure ** power, but by a force field formed by magic, this magic is neither light nor dark, neither black nor white, a kind of gray magic that is free between light and darkness.
The prince turned around to avoid the gray magic field that Merit Gaar hit at his shoulder, and reversed the "endless sigh" and slashed horizontally at the gray magic field. "Since it's magic, cut it off!"
However, although the heavy sword was hit, the force field did not move.
"Cut off my magic? "I know that your sword can cut magic, but it can cut the upper limit of the strength of magic, which is affected by the strength of the user. In other words, it is impossible for a little kid who has never practiced to use this sword to cut through mentor-level magic. To me, you're no different from a little kid. â
Instead of being cut off by the "Endless Sigh", the magic force field blessed on Meritgar's hand knife cut off this thousand-year-old divine weapon. Then the knife slashed at the Vampire Prince's body without hindrance, knocking him into the wall dozens of meters away.
After slaying down St. Angel and the Vampire Prince, Meritgar walked straight to Sophia, who was in her imagination. Owen stood up and stopped in front of Meritgar: "It seems that you really don't save me zĂ i." â
However, Meritgar's ignorance and failure to shift his gaze from Sophia to Owen has fully explained his attitude towards Owen. Owen knew that this terrible enemy was so contemptuous of him, and it seemed that he had already resisted his illusion and would not be attacked lightly. However, Owen knew better that he was Sophia's last barrier at the moment, and there was no room for half a step back. Since the mental attack can't be used, then use fists and feet to distinguish the winner from the loser.
"A boring telepath, he can't measure himself. Meritgar's gray mana field easily blocked Owen's punch, then effortlessly crushed him to the ground.
Owen spewed out a stream of bloody arrows with a "wow". Although he was healed by Sophia from the wounds left in the battle with the paladin William, but the large amount of blood lost could not be replenished, at this time Owen was still in a relatively weak state, and he did not understand the magical structure of this gray force field at all, there was no way to shatter it, in front of this force that even the vampire prince could not resist, he was knocked down without suspense.
A figure leaps up behind Meritgar. How could the vampire prince Dekra be defeated so lightly?In his more than a thousand years of life, he has encountered too many strange and desperate battles. Even though his sword had been broken in two, the remaining blade was still slashed at the back of Meritgar's unprotected neck, and the Vampire Prince had already seen that Meritgar's gray magic field had limited coverage and could not protect his whole body, and now was the important time to take him down. However, his raid ultimately failed. Although the gray force field could not protect the whole body, the speed of Meritgar's change of move was far faster than the Vampire Prince expected. Before the broken sword could be slashed, he had already sensed the danger and transferred the gray force field that suppressed Owen to his back in time.
"You vampires are a bunch of tiresome flies. Obviously an undead, but he still retains the memories and feelings of being a human being, and even the stupidity of fighting beasts in despair is retained. Meritgar, who had blocked the Prince's slash, said in disgust.
"I'm desperate? The prince responded.
"What?" Meritgar came back to her senses, only to notice that Owen, who was prostrate on the ground, had reached out and grabbed his bare feet.
It turned out that the Vampire Prince's surprise attack was nothing more than a false move, and the real purpose was to cover Owen from touching Meritgar's body.
Before Meritgar could speak, blood was spurting from his mouth. The moment Owen's telekinesis touched Meritgar's bare feet, it spread throughout his body.
What the Prince of Vampire said just now: "The body structure of artificial life forms is not much different from that of humans. "Actually, it's for Owen. Now that he understands the physiology of the other party, Owen is sure enough to exert the crushing telekinesis on him.
Although it didn't look like there was a trace of scarring on the outside, all the organs in Meritgar's body had been destroyed, turning into a mess of mush. The soft-picked corpse swooped forward, falling less than five meters away from Sophia.
There was a tremor in the coffin. Another magic crystal coffin collapsed on its own, shattering into powder along with the remains of the previous Pope's saint inside.
"Should you be commended for your efforts, or should you lament your stupidity, and in despair when the odds of victory are completely zero, such a boring attempt should be made. Meritgar's yin and yang voice sounded again. He estimated that he would redo it and replace himself with a doppelganger and die again.
"The odds of winning are completely zero? I don't think so. Owen wiped the blood from his mouth and staggered to his feet.
"I know you still have 112 stand-ins, so I'll kill you 113 more times. "The Prince of Vampire tightened his grip on the broken sword.
The wind blew up. Owen and the prince turned into two shadows, one red and one black, and attacked Meritgar from the front and back. Through these encounters, the two of them roughly figured out the size and shape of the gray force field. Although this six-sided force field was impregnable, it was absolutely impossible for it to fend off attacks from the front and back at the same time for Merit Gar.
Yet again, they miscalculated. The area of the gray force field suddenly increased, turning into a ring state, protecting the abdomen and back of Meritgar at the same time. The force field is enhanced not only by the area, but also by the magic power. Almost at the same time that Owen and the Prince hit, the gray force field bounced back their attacks with several times the power.
Owen and the Vampire Prince were knocked over on the two crystal coffins by the force of the rebound, and the force of the impact was so powerful that even the crystal coffins, which were claimed to be indestructible, kept shaking. Although they couldn't figure it out, both of them knew one thing: Merit Gar's strength was inexplicably increasing.
"You don't know anything. Every time I lose a stand-in, the mana from that stand-in will be transferred to me, and my strength will be doubled. With a commanding look, Meritgar swept across the crowd that he had knocked down, "Kill me 113 times, you can't even kill me a third time." â
"No! â
With a coquettish reprimand, the sharp spear tip and the wild blood spurted out of Meritgar's pierced belly. Immediately afterward, the tip of the spear emitted a scorching fire magic.
Only a "boom" was heard, and Meritgar's entire body was shattered by the explosion from the inside out.
Behind the flames and flying flesh was a blonde girl wearing a red war cloak and armor and a spear.
Sophia finally figured out how to summon the soul of the Valkyrie on her own
