Chapter 171: The True Body of the Puppet Demon
In Ye Xuan's eyes, the puppet demon suddenly disappeared, and then appeared in front of him, countless black lines burst out from the black robe, and the next one completely enveloped Ye Xuan!
"Brother Xuan!"
Zhou Ping shouted anxiously, not only did the puppet demon attack violently, but many players around him disregarded Ye Xuan's safety and directly attacked, which made Zhou Ping even more resentful.
Seeing the black line stabbing down, the moment the surrounding skills flew out, Ye Xuan's entire figure exploded, turned into a cloud of smoke, and appeared at the back of the team with a swish, making the puppet demon's attack miss at once.
Ye Xuan's evasion, the puppet demon was completely exposed to the player's attack, fireballs, air cannonballs, sword light, in the blink of an eye, the black robe on the puppet demon's body became tattered, and most of the hood was burned off, revealing the pale, bloodless face inside.
The puppet demon's venomous gaze stayed on Ye Xuan for a while, and then, the figure faded and appeared dozens of meters away, which was a sign of escaping! You must know that in addition to the entrance where Ye Xuan and the others entered, there is also a more spacious exit behind the entire valley!
Immediately, several people rushed up, but suddenly, a rumbling sound came, and the ground was full of tremors, and some of the players who rushed forward couldn't maintain their balance for a while and fell to the ground.
At this time, the eyes of the players were full of shock, only to see the surrounding valley rock walls, in an instant, all collapsed, countless rubble rolled down, and smoke and dust filled the sky.
If it weren't for the place where the players were standing, far away from the rock wall, at this time, even if they were not buried by the collapsed mountain, I am afraid that they would be injured by those flying rubble.
The players were stunned by this collapse, and the two NPCs were no exception, for a moment. The puppet demon dozens of meters away suddenly separated into several identical figures, and those clones quickly separated, and a lot of black lines appeared on their bodies, burrowing into some bones on the ground.
Without the Altar, the Golems can no longer manipulate the Bone Beasts on a large scale. The previous bone beasts seemed to be blindfolded, and their actions were very chaotic, but the puppet demons were undead who specialized in this after all, and it was easy to control a few bone beasts.
Therefore, in the blink of an eye, several bone beasts were revived, and those puppet demon clones also turned over. Then, control the bone beast and flee quickly.
These puppet demons turned out to be physical existences, and they could even use their own abilities, and for a while, the players who were already a little stunned couldn't tell the difference between the real and the fake.
All of this happened in a split second. Even the two players who were controlled by the puppet demon had just taken a step. With a hideous face, he rushed towards a group of players.
Fortunately, at this moment, the NPC mage who had not moved until now waved his staff, spilling out two holy white lights, enveloping the two controlled players, who struggled in the white light. Then, wisps of black qi emerged from them, and after a short time, their eyes returned to clarity.
In times of emergency, no one cares about anything else. Just looking at the puppet demons who were getting farther and farther away, many people showed anxious looks on their faces.
"Scatter chase?"
"Scatter the chase!"
At this time, the identical puppet demons have already ridden the bone beast, divided into several different directions, and escaped for a long distance, if the valley still existed before, the puppet demons only have one direction to escape, and it is easier to pursue, but at this time, it is empty in all directions, and people are stunned for a moment, and it is unrealistic to want to pursue together.
The four puppet demons, divided into four directions, Ye Xuan and the other three members of the War Blade Regiment pursued one of them, the five members of the military pursued the other, and the two NPCs also chased one of them, and the remaining four people chased the remaining puppet demon clone.
The bone beasts chosen by the puppet demon were all dexterous and lightweight, and they were very fast, and Ye Xuan and the others pursued them from the rear, and after chasing them for a long time, they barely caught up behind the other party.
Turning into smoke, in a flash, Ye Xuan appeared on the side of the puppet demon, and slashed down with a sword.
Although the puppet demon avoided it at the last moment, but when it sat down on the bone beast, it was also directly split, and the entire undead fell from the bone beast.
"Surround him!"
Ye Xuan shouted at Zhou Ping and the others, and at the same time, a sword swung towards the puppet demon, cutting off the black lines that he was protecting around him, and then, cutting off a large piece of rotten flesh from him.
But the injury had no effect on the puppet demon, a flicker, and once again appeared dozens of meters away, only this time, the flickering distance was closer than before, and after the puppet demon figure appeared, it couldn't help shaking a little, obviously, it was the body that could not bear this load.
Correct...... The puppet demon's eyes were still full of viciousness, looking at the four Ye Xuan who rushed over, the figure was divided again, divided into four, and the four puppet demons who even had the same wounds turned around and fled into the distance again.
can continue to be a doppelganger, could it be that this is true? Ye Xuan and the others felt excited.
Looking at the puppet demons who fled separately, Ye Xuan decisively ordered, "Chase separately, pay attention to safety!" ”
After that, Ye Xuan clenched the Chiyan Sword, chased after him again, and continued to divide the troops, Ye Xuan also had his own judgment, after all, the doppelgangers of the puppet demons were all real, and in his extremely weak situation, every time the clones were separated, they would inevitably weaken his strength, even if Zhou Ping and them faced each other alone, they should have a certain degree of certainty.
What's more, this kind of puppet demon that can control the player is too big a threat to the sheltered town. Many undead people, although they look like humans, have a strong undead aura on their bodies, and it is not difficult for ordinary players to distinguish them.
Moreover, the ordinary undead clan, no matter how well the aura is hidden, will be detected by the town's own detection function at the moment of entering the sheltered town, and there is nothing to hide. But...... Although the human beings controlled by the puppet demon are a little uncoordinated, if ordinary people don't observe carefully, they can't see it at all, once such a puppet enters the sheltered town, it is easy to destroy those important facilities.
…………
The puppet demon fought back, using flashes again and again, for a while, Ye Xuan couldn't catch up with the other party at all, and could only barely hang behind, but finally, after the puppet demon flickered again, it fell out of mid-air, lying on the ground, and seemed to be unable to stand up again.
Although the other party seems to be the end of a strong crossbow. But Ye Xuan didn't dare to relax in the slightest, he walked to the side carefully, and swung a cross slash, which shot out with lightning, smashing the puppet demon's skull along with the upper half of his body. Completely crushed.
Ye Xuan frowned, although the corpse did not disappear, it ...... Not only did no loot be exposed, but there was no trace of essence appearing, obviously, this was not the real body of the puppet demon.
Could it be that the real body is the other three?
Ye Xuan pondered in his heart, after all, the puppet demon was doppelganger again, if it was not the main body that was caught up. Yes, there is no need to flee again.
But after a while, Ye Xuan denied this idea, after separation, the puppet demon was even weaker, although he could escape a long distance, but he would eventually be caught up, it was better to keep the state, and fight to the death from Ye Xuan and a few people.
Case. Ye Xuan changed his mind, if Ye Xuan and the four of them caught up with the puppet demon. It's not a real body, but just a doppelganger, so why should the other party be a doppelganger again?
Not being a doppelganger can also cause a little trouble to Ye Xuan and a few people, once a doppelganger is done, in addition to wasting a little time for Ye Xuan and a few people. Chasing a long distance away is of no use at all.
Wait a minute...... Distance, isn't this what the puppet demon wants to achieve, originally a player chasing the puppet demon, someone always catches up with the real body. At this time, they must be fighting with the puppet demons, and the puppet demons are just trying to lure the others away so that the real body can escape smoothly.
In other words, the puppet demon that is caught up, except for the real body that will fight with the pursuer, the other clones will split again, leading the pursuer away.
With this in mind, Ye Xuan returned to the vicinity of the valley in the direction he had come, and then searched around.
But the surrounding environment was too complicated, out of the valley, the rest were dense forests, coupled with the roars of strange beasts from time to time, it was difficult for Ye Xuan to judge where there were people around and fighting.
Finding a tall tree, Ye Xuan kicked the branch, jumped to the top of the trunk, faced the wind, and observed in the distance.
For a long time, I didn't hear any special sounds, and I didn't see where the light and shadow of the battle flickered.
Thinking about it, with the speed of the puppet demon sitting down the bone beast, one minute is enough to run for several kilometers, once the time of the pursuit is extended, the battlefield is more than ten kilometers away from Ye Xuan, it is also possible, therefore, if you don't use some kind of large-scale group attack skill during the battle, otherwise it will be too difficult to detect.
Not to mention finding where a battle broke out, even the alien beasts were very rare, and after standing on the tree for a long time, they found a few small alien beasts that were not very strong, and ran through the sight in a panic.
Run? A flash of inspiration flashed in Ye Xuan's mind, the alien beasts would run away, it was possible that they encountered more powerful alien beasts, or it was these weak alien beasts that felt the power of the puppet demons, so they fled in panic.
Thinking of this, Ye Xuan tapped the tree trunk with his toes, jumped out in one step, and landed on another tree trunk, and then, with the same action, jumped between the trunks one after another, and hurried quickly in the direction where the alien beasts had fled.
It didn't take long for Ye Xuan to feel the fluctuation of Yuan Force coming from not far away, and he quickly quickened his pace and shuttled between the trees.
Suddenly, the eyes suddenly opened up, and I saw many trees in front of me being destroyed, and three figures, standing in the messy dirt, fighting.
One of the figures, no doubt, is a puppet demon, while the other two figures are a purple-haired NPC and a mage NPC.
The puppet demon monster laughed a few times, and black threads emerged, weaving a claw in the air, and slapping towards the purple-haired woman.
At this time, the purple-haired woman was holding a silver-white thin sword, and several pale golden ones on her body kept spinning, seeing the black claws of Senran, her face was solemn, and suddenly, the surrounding temperature dropped a lot in an instant, and layers of frost covered the thin sword, and with a swing of the sword, an ice-blue lotus flower flew out, colliding with each other from the bone claws in mid-air, canceling out.
The blow failed, but the puppet demon didn't care at all, his figure flickered, and appeared in front of the NPC mage, a slender, but even more terrifying black claw, towards the NPC mage.
The purple hair was entangled, and the NPC mage also knew that it was at a critical juncture, and a holy white light condensed from the staff, blasting towards the puppet demon.
The puppet demon was touched by this holy white light, as if a snowflake met the sun, it melted in an instant, and the entire figure was completely swallowed by the holy light.
However, the NPC mage's face suddenly changed greatly, he knew that the puppet demon could not be killed so easily, and the other party was desperately trying to consume his strength again and split into a clone to act as a bait, in order to only be a fatal blow.
Although the NPC mage thought of this, he didn't have time to react at all, and saw an identical puppet demon appear behind him, and another Sen Ran bone claw broke the golden light shield blessed on his body, pierced his body, and corroded his upper body, cutting a large hole.
The eyes of those who didn't dare kicked wide, but the NPC mage couldn't speak anymore and fell directly to the ground.
The purple-haired woman had already cut off the huge black claw at this time, but when she saw her companion being killed in an instant, her face became more solemn while grieving, and she couldn't stop the puppet demon at all.
At this time, the puppet demon did not flee directly as the purple-haired girl imagined, or burst out with all his strength and kill her, but suddenly glanced at her eyes and said, "Someone is chasing after you again!" ”
"Tsk, it turned out to be just one person." The first one was a little surprised, the second one was full of disdain.
And the third sound, after the puppet demon saw Ye Xuan rushing over, his eyes showed a vicious look, "It turned out to be you!" ”
Among the many players, the puppet demon's hatred for Ye Xuan is the greatest, if it weren't for Ye Xuan, his puppet would have destroyed the tower a long time ago, and the protective shield would have completely failed, at this time, they would have been able to capture the shelter town long ago.
Even so, the puppet demons didn't care too much at that time, they were still bone behemoths, and if the protective shield was damaged, they could also easily break the protective shield to achieve their goal.
And the altar that made the bone beast was also destroyed because of the person in front of him, which made him suffer such a heavy backlash!
Therefore, the puppet demon, who had originally planned to leave directly, simply left the purple-haired woman, instantly condensed the black claws of Senran, and grabbed directly towards Ye Xuan.
Ye Xuan's face was also solemn, and from the process when the puppet demon killed the mage NPC just now, he could see that the combat power of the main body was far from being comparable to that of the clone.
The Yuan Force in the body circulates rapidly according to the mysterious trajectory, and the Phantom Step is used! Use the Origin Summoning Technique!
In an instant, Ye Xuan's speed increased greatly, and it was not at all different from Sen Ran's claws, one dodged and dodged, and the claws flew straight back, and several tree trunks were grabbed by black claws, and they were instantly hollowed out and fell down.
And Ye Xuan shook to the side of the puppet demon and slashed down with a sword, and at the same time, two Shura generals wearing light armor and long blood-red hair appeared on the other side of the puppet demon and also slashed with a sword!
