27. One man, one army

There is a saying that only when you really experience death will you understand how precious life is, but this is for ordinary people, because death is a one-way trip for them, and there is no second chance.

However, for those who are mysterious beings in themselves, death is just a very rare and ordinary thing, and if death has no special meaning for an existence, then its existence itself has actually lost its meaning.

"Huh"

The swarthy black blade grazed Saibo's arm, slashing a spark at the sturdy demonic scales, smashing a dozen scales and directing the scorching blood, causing a painful twitch to flash across Cyber's face beneath the armor.

It hurts, not just physical damage, but also a damaging effect similar to a curse, so that each pain will be stacked on top of the previous pain, almost exponentially, but what is more difficult than the superimposed pain is Erica who is jumping around with an afterimage in front of her.

"Am I satisfying you now?

After being killed 28 times, Erica, who has been constantly improving through death, has become a Shadow Ninja Master who gives Cyber a bit of a headache, and every time she moves, she drags a series of phantoms behind her body, which is not just a visual residue, it seems to be a very clever fighting ninjutsu, her body can be freely transformed in these afterimages, so that every punch of Cyber has at least half a chance of missing.

Her voice seemed to have a special trill, scurrying back and forth in the darkness,

"Do you want me to help you feel refreshed? Don't speak? That's the default..."

"Baby, I'm here!"

Erica, who flashed into the darkness, licked her lips, she had been endowed with super endurance, strength, agility, strong adaptability to shadows, and a battle intuition similar to the perception of a beast, except that she did not heal herself, Erica seemed to have been strengthened 28 times and turned into a superman.

On the battlefield, in addition to the two people who fought frantically, there was also a summoned shadow dog, very similar to the one that Casillas had summoned, but not corrosive, but endowed with a stronger physique and a crazy will to fight.

In this case, the best way is no longer to defend, otherwise sooner or later he will be dragged to death, and Cyber is not Erica, he will die once and it will be cold.

"Huh"

With chains in the back, the simulated vivid energy scythe flew out of Erica's hand, whistling and slashing at Cyber's neck, the latter took a step back, narrowly dodging, the layer of dark energy on the surface of Cyber's body had been dispersed, and after reaching the maximum force that her body could withstand, Erica felt that she had a great advantage.

And at such times, the dominant party generally throws down a few words according to the rules, and Erica, who is dominated by the second personality, seems to be the same.

"Why are you hiding? Do you hate me?"

Her sweet, honey-like voice vibrated through the space around Cyber, and a fleeting shadow made Cyber's eyes narrow, but he still didn't speak, his left hand clutching something tightly, and Cyber's fingers moved slightly when Erica's figure reappeared.

"Got you!"

"Whoosh"

The snake-like bondage chains flew out of his hands, still the chains with bondage runes produced by Kama Taj, and the 1,800 small chains shone with the light of the bondage spells, spinning and flying out from five directions, completely enveloping the space within 3 meters around Cyber, and then suddenly tightening in the next moment.

This kind of imprisoning chain can directly lock the incomplete archangel, and it naturally has a strong suppressive power for a mysterious creature like Erica that does not exceed this level, in fact, at the moment when the chain was shot, Erica sensed that something was wrong, but her dark shuttle like a space jump was just halfway through, and she was forcibly dragged out of the darkness.

The chains were bound to her body layer by layer, imprisoning the power from the shadow beasts in her body, the runes shimmering, rattling from Erica's struggle, and Cyber held the tail of the chain in his left hand, and he pulled forward, and the chains collided, pulling Erica's body to the ground.

"You feel it, don't you?"

Cyber lifted her up from the ground and grabbed her in front of his eyes, "It's coming out, isn't it?"

His eyes were blazing, and a hint of panic flashed in Erica's gray eyes, and she shook her head,

"I don't know what you're talking about! Let go of me! This game isn't fun at all! I'm not going to play anymore! Let go of me!"

"Huh"

With a flick of his right hand, a dagger engraved with the Evil Breaking Rune appeared in his hand, and he stabbed it into Erica's chest without hesitation, straight into the heart, and the body of the Shadow Assassin Master began to vibrate wildly, making the chains let out an overwhelmed scream, she was in pain, and the shadow-like lines moved on his face, like a spreading poisonous snake.

"Let it out... I have something to say to it!"

With a flick of his wrist, he retracted the chains, and he pushed Erica's body back, and she lost her balance, staggered back a few steps, and fell to the ground, black blood flowed from her body, Erica was like a fish out of water, and she struggled to open her mouth to breathe, but she couldn't.

She couldn't breathe air, or in other words, she couldn't breathe life.

"It's coming, can't wait... You will, regret it!"

She looked at Cyber resentfully, and the latter shrugged his shoulders, his face grim,

"I'm here for it, I've been playing with you long enough... It's time to get down to business!"

Cyber picked up the warhammer from the ground and crutched it on the ground, watching Erica exhale her last breath in pain, as she had done 28 times before, her body was wrapped in gray mist, like forming a large gray mist cocoon, but this time the "rebirth" lasted much longer.

This is natural, if the first 28 deaths only made Erica's instinctive suppression weaker and weaker, making this body and the power of the shadow beast more compatible step by step, then this 29th death is the most important step to really release the beast, representing that Erica, the symbol of the existence of the soul, has been killed by Cyber just now, and this is the carrier of the real beast.

A "beast" that has transcended the shackles of consciousness and flesh and blood, and was born in the present world in its true original form!

It is only through the repeated death of the carrier that the self is unsealed... It sounded evil enough, the pain and torment of death was reversed 29 times, and Cyber could even see Erica's tormented soul swallowed up in the tumbling fog as if it were a thing.

Her body stood up, standing in place as before, but when she opened her eyes, the gaze that revealed was the kind of savage that Cyber had seen once, with a savage aura, cold, calm, like a piece of ice hidden under the fog.

This is the real "beast", there is no reason, no emotion, there is only existence itself.

It took more than ten seconds for her to take her first breath, and it seemed that even the act of breathing itself was so foreign to it, and the moment she inhaled, the dark air currents visible to the naked eye appeared in the space, and all the darkness in the entire space seemed to be absorbed, and was inhaled into her nostrils.

The intensity of the storm even gave Cyber the feeling of being in the eye of the storm, his hair, his cheeks, and the dark power that wrapped around his body.

"Whew..."

She breathed a sigh of relief, and then the thin darkness in the entire void was once again filled, like the legendary sky beast, every breath represented the appearance of a storm, just standing there, there was a special deterrent.

"That's right!"

Cyber grinned, smiling under his visor, this was the guy he needed, what he was looking for, hidden in the body in front of him, so the next moment, he rushed towards Erica who was standing in front of him with his warhammer.

"Eat Me a Hammer !!"

The hammer wrapped in dark flames streaked through the air with a deep light, and the artifact said to come from the Greek god of war Ares, was covered with terrifying cone spikes, and the flames flowed as if they were holding a torch, making the blow even more powerful.

When the Gates of Hell were opened, it had been proven that a full blow like Cyber could directly destroy Lucifer's magic shield, which was amazingly powerful, and although the beast did not have the reason in the traditional sense, it was the instinct of all creatures to seek advantage and avoid harm, so when the hammer came over, she did not hesitate to retreat.

"Boom"

The war hammer slammed into the ground, and the splashed energy exploded under the feet of the two people, and Cyber did not stop, and smashed it with another hammer, this time the beast was not polite, and also waved the power of the shadow to launch a counterattack, but just when the war hammer and the shadow blade of the two people were staggered, the awakened beast raised its head and saw that Cyber's eyes had turned dark red, and there was still a ring of fire shining in them.

"The real battlefield is not here... I heard you like to eat souls... Come on, I'll take the initiative to send it to the door, and I'll treat you to a good meal!"

"Buzz"

Seber's eyes were blurry, as if he had been squeezed into a sponge soaked in water, making him a little breathless, and he tried to enter the chaotic soul in front of him with difficulty, but it was like a person who was blocked outside the city wall, and he couldn't get into the self-blocked soul at all.

But this challenge to the soul also angered the beast that relied on instinct, she raised her left arm, as if to launch an order to attack, the first blurred shadow appeared behind her, holding two katana in both hands, the body was very familiar, it was the newly dead Murakami, but at this time, the body of this guy was covered with a layer of black mud, like a combination of soul and darkness, giving him a body out of thin air.

And Murakami was only the first, and there was no clue on the expressionless face of the shadow beast, behind her, a shadow door had opened, and the second, the third, the fourth, until the open space between the two people was covered with all kinds of souls, from the hand to the ordinary child, and under each wriggling mass of black mud, there was a soul devoured by the shadow beast.

In an instant, a shadow army appeared in the camp of the beasts, and with a wave of her finger forward, those shadows roared and raised their weapons, and pounced towards Cyber, this face was placed in this small space, it was like a thousand troops, and the voice like a terrible ghost screamed upside down and shook the entire dark space.

"Yo, what a scene!"

Cyber laughed heartlessly, the war hammer in his hand swung around, and finally carried it on his shoulder, he gestured his middle finger towards the beast surrounded by the spirits, and the next moment, the first shadows that rushed over, as if they had been ignited by a brush, were instantly a tumbling wall of flames, blocking the front of Cyber.

"But the soul, this is my realm!"

A scorching fire dragon wrapped around Cyber's arm, this was exactly the same trick used in the Battle of the Sanctuary of London at that time, and now blessed with the power of darkness, it only made the fire dragon's lethality more terrifying, surrounded by darkness, he whispered,

"You've chosen the wrong opponent!"
