Chapter 563: Unexpected
In fact, after Octavir and Lin Weiyin both lost their combat effectiveness, Stephanie relaxed more or less, after all, in Hei Changzhi's opinion, it was only these two people who could threaten her, and Nangong Rong was confronting the final boss and it was difficult to take care of her, and the rest of the coalition members couldn't get into the girl's eyes at all.
Stephanie does have the qualifications to ignore the other members of the coalition, but they don't plan to rush directly to find fault, do you know what the final battle weapon is? It's something that is specifically used to deal with the existence of girls.
Octavier, who retreated to the World Tree with Lin Weiyin, had actually been paying close attention to Stephanie's actions, who knew if the other party would bypass the puppet that Nangong Rong was responsible for blocking and run over to attack the two of them, so it was better to be cautious. When the black-haired girl hid herself in a turtle shell, the eldest princess breathed a long sigh of relief, which meant that the other party would no longer play sneak attacks everywhere, but put on a posture of serious preparation for a big move.
After seeing Hei Changzhi do this, Octavill hesitated suddenly, because the target of the former's ultimate move must be the World Tree, as long as the city and fortress that the coalition army is the pillar of the destruction, the coalition side is estimated to completely collapse. Don't look at the abyss monsters that can't stand on the ground now, but those are low-level cannon fodder, and the high-level units that can fly may be deeply affected when they enter Nangong Rong's domain, but at least they won't explode on the spot, and they will have no problem entering the field to replenish the knife after the coalition's defense collapses.
However, the eldest princess quickly shook her head lightly in self-deprecation, now she has little magic and fighting energy left, which is simply not enough to support even a few minutes of battle, and some giants of light who specialize in fighting small monsters have appeared on the blue star for longer than this, what can she do?
One could only pray that nothing bad would happen - perhaps the goddess of fate had heard Octavir's prayer, and the large magic weapon, which had been silent for a long time at the top of the World Tree, suddenly activated, and the translucent illusory projection was firmly aimed at the crystalline sphere in mid-air.
Then, without warning, the arrow on the longbow in the projection hand roared out of the bowstring, slashing a dazzling lightning bolt in the sky and crashing straight into the surface of the sphere, and then exploded into a small round of sun.
Octavir thought that she was far enough away, but even then she was almost blown into the sky by the sweeping wind, and finally had to squat on the ground with Lin Weiyin's head and desperately lower her body to avoid this situation. Of course, the eldest princess believed that it might be powerful, but not to the point of worrying about nuclear weapons, so the girl immediately looked up at the sky after the shockwave disappeared, hoping to grasp the specific situation in the area.
Stephanie could never have just burped so directly, because the eldest princess could vaguely see in the bright light that the orb was still there, at least most of it was not damaged, but it was not intact, and many fragments fell off the surface from time to time, as if they could fall apart at any time.
Just as Octavir was speculating, there was a sudden sound in the sky like glass being smashed by a heavy object, and the sphere finally shattered, and then turned into countless pieces at a faster speed than before.
No Stephanie was found, and the light from the sky and the rest of the disturbances were so strong that no matter how hard Octavir tried, she couldn't determine the location or even existence of Hei Changzhi. However, it is certain that the danger has been lifted, because at the moment when the sphere was broken, the eldest princess felt that some extremely terrifying energy was converging, but now this energy is all dissipated, and it will no longer have any effect on the surroundings.
Well, that energy wasn't actually dissipated, but was temporarily used by Stephanie to save her own life. In the face of the attack of the giant magic weapon of the World Tree with pure magic power, the black-haired girl can be said to be completely defenseless, and she didn't care when the outer sphere was attacked, after all, she had full confidence in the defensive power of her skills - but it was clear that this was not a soft attack, but a bombardment from the main cannon at the head of the city, and the improvised defense was not enough to resist it.
What's worse is that the black-haired girl took back the crossbow with demon-breaking attributes in order to concentrate on her ultimate, and she didn't even have an item to block in the face of the surging magic impact that broke through the defense, and she didn't plan to use her body to carry it, so she had to use the energy condensed to prepare for the space shock to protect herself. Fortunately, there was not a lot of magic left after breaking through the defense, and the girl's action of forcibly tearing the space and introducing the magic into the void did not encounter any difficulties.
Everything was fine except for the all-black dress that the girl loved so much, which was so hard washed by the burst of energy, causing her face to be torn into strips of cloth.
No, no, no, it's obviously not good at all, hey! The girl remembers that she is here to cooperate with the Great Demon King to destroy the world, why did she somehow become the legendary broken armor (yi) welfare responsibility!? Although Stephanie's dress was originally very cool, like a genuine horse monkey soju, she could show off her white flowers and attract countless wolves, but this does not mean that girls are willing to be forced to show welfare, and the real sense of welfare is not the same thing as this kind of royal road in the proper rubbing of the edges, okay!
OK, these are not the most important things, the key is that the clothes on Stephanie's body are serious armor with special effects, and they were not even activated when they fought with Octavir and others, but now they are completely shattered to the point where they can't be repaired without saying a word. Stephanie, who had lost her last line of defense, was no different from Lin Weiyin who had taken off her power armor at the moment, but the magic power surging around her showed no sign of trying to calm down, so the final consequences were unexpected but reasonable.
Stephanie was injured.
The milky white skin was roughly cut and turned open to reveal the internal muscle tissue, and the bright red blood with a little dark purple color couldn't stop gushing out of the wound, making the black-haired girl completely turn into a bloody state in a short time, because there were too many small wounds on her body, and the scaly wounds all over her body were referring to this.
And unlike the cartoons in which you casually draw some black marks on the skin, it means that you are injured, so the whole character is patched with this kind of black marks to show that he is seriously injured, and the scaly wounds all over the body in reality are very terrifying, and the shape that seems to be torn off every piece of skin on the body is definitely the favorite of horror movies, even if it is not fatal for the time being, the hellish bleeding speed will kill people.
Of course, this is not a big problem for Stephanie, she has a hundred ways to stop the bleeding in a short time and heal the dense small wounds on her body, and when she fought with the Alliance in the past, she often suffered a lot of serious injuries compared to now, and even broken hands and feet are common, so she still persevered?
It's just that today, even if Hei Changzhi transforms into a monster, it's useless, and ordinary small injuries may not have any effect, but this kind of fleshy injury has become the last straw that crushes the camel, because without armor and skin protection, the energy specially made by Nangong Rong that fills the surrounding air is poured into the girl's body without hindrance.
Unlike being contaminated on the skin by the so-called "foot washing water", at that time, it can still be kept out of the body for cleaning, but if it enters the body......
Rao is Stephanie couldn't help but let out an extremely terrible scream, and before she had time to make any action to treat herself, she fell straight into the air, not that she was unconscious, it was purely a sharp pain that made her muscles twitch and no longer accept any control of the brain, and she was in a state where her consciousness was still there but her body did not obey her call.
The damage caused to the girl by the main cannon of the World Tree is actually like that, what really makes her unbearable is the energy belonging to Nangong Rong that continues to pour into her body, those little things are like destroying every cell of the girl and frantically raging everywhere in the body, but after destroying it, it is reconstructed, so that the pain of destruction is accompanied by the feeling of numb and itchy tissue regeneration. The black-haired girl, who didn't rely on her body to fight, could withstand such a toss, and she was forced to transform before she hit the ground, and she became a monster in the form of a human in front of everyone.
Well, it's just that the body and limbs resemble humans, the head part is completely transformed into some kind of mollusk-like existence, the middle part is a crack full of sharp teeth, there are no organs such as eyes and nostrils, and the surface is not covered with skin, and after falling to the ground, all the hands and feet are close to the ground and look like a toad from a distance - at first, I thought that this thing was because of the violent reaction in the body and the pain was so painful that I couldn't stand up, but soon the toad's skillful movement of crawling quickly on the ground made the eldest princess give up this idea.
No matter what kind of beautiful girl Stephanie used to be, but after the transformation of the abyss, it is obvious that the toad in front of her is the true essence of the girl.
It's a pity that Octavier is just a spectator, and someone else is making a move on Stephanie. And Nangong Rong clearly didn't want to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade, not to mention that the girl's weird appearance now made people unable to have similar thoughts, so the young man's movements did not stop.
In fact, Nangong Rong's attention was really not on this side, he was still engrossed in tearing each other apart with the will of the abyss, what did Stephanie do The boy said that he didn't know at all. However, there will still be some subconscious instinctive reactions, such as the body must breathe when the body is starved of oxygen, the eyelids must blink when the eyes are dry, and the abyssal energy must be directly annihilated and transformed with energy, all of which are inadvertently and casually done.
Stephanie is the existence that exudes an abyss signal that caused Nangong Rong's instinctive reaction in this state, like an ant that accidentally climbed onto the back of a human hand and attracted the other party's tickling action, and then there was no more.
Although this metaphor is a bit inappropriate, it is almost like this, Hei Changzhi is indeed very strong, but it is completely incomparable with Nangong Rong, who is currently planetary, and she is in the area where the abyss is forbidden to be infested by the teenager, even if she is slightly [tickled] by the other party, she can't bear it at all, and finally it naturally becomes like this.
And it's not over yet, and the toad on the ground that is suspected of being Stephanie doesn't know if it has lost its ability to fly or what, in short, it didn't return to the sky and ran wildly on the ground. You must know that although Hei Changzhi has changed his form at this moment, the injuries on his body have not healed, and the way he runs close to the ground with his limbs will only raise a large amount of dust attached to the energy and contaminate his body, resulting in more serious injuries, but Stephanie obviously can't care about it so much.
The girl (monster?) was trying her best to reach the end of the earth embedded in the void at the end of the horizon, the energy in her body was so chaotic that she couldn't use any skills at all, and the ground under her feet was hot like a pot of oil to herself, so she had to get out of here and enter the void if she wanted to survive. In fact, climbing to a high altitude occupied by the energy of the abyss, where the air is scarce, can also be rescued, but Stephanie can no longer fly, so she can only choose to go by land.
However, Hei Changzhi was not able to run that far in the end, and the energy in the air was not as much as that contained in the entire land, and her fate was already sealed the moment she fell to the ground.
Some of the abyssal units with flying ability lowered their altitude in an attempt to retrieve Stephanie, but most of them, except for the mechanics, were severely weakened by Nangong Rong's domain, and it was difficult for them to advance half a step further if they were intercepted by the many humanoid puppets guarding the low altitude.
Stephanie's sanity was on the verge of being tormented by the pain and itching that seemed to never stop all over her body, and she even developed a feeling of despair. Things obviously shouldn't be like this, the girl is far stronger than everyone on the scene, why would the person who was about to hang up in the end be herself? Even if Nangong Rong got the help of the plane consciousness, she couldn't use it all to deal with the girl, she could completely kill Octavier and the others one by one without the teenager taking care of it.
At least theoretically, Stephanie could have done that, but she couldn't figure out why she ended up failing, which didn't make sense!
Obviously, she didn't know what teamwork was.
