It was part of the plan to let the Dark Witch Queen retrieve the power of immortality, only the original owner of the power knew how to store this strange energy in others, and if he had any other ideas about this super self-healing ability, he had to let Kurt return the power to its original owner.
The Dark Witch Queen, who had regained her abilities, had a faint glow on her body, and her cells were bursting with vigor and she let out a hearty laugh and tightened her mouth, trying to strangle her old enemy in front of her, but Kurt was still a good witch hunter even if she didn't have super self-healing abilities, and he gritted his teeth and tensed his muscles to resist the enemy's movements.
The power of immortality has been returned to its place, and there is no need to watch Kurt be killed anymore. The swordsman of the Blue Rain team drew his sword to save him, a sword light flashed, and the Black Witch Queen waved her hand to resist, and the claws and long swords were not cut off, but made a "bell" with a crisp sound of metal strike. Seeing that someone had come to help, the Dark Witch Queen threw down Kurt and retreated more than ten meters away.
"Queen, save me!" A dark wizard has been injured by the joint attack of the Holy Church Elder and two reincarnators, and he can barely resist the enemy's attack by constantly recreating the spell shield, but his life is already in danger under the fierce attack.
……
The Plague Tree was put to the test in the flames ignited by gasoline, but a transparent and condensed shield emerged outside its skin to shield it from the direct scorching of the flames, and the countless small holes in the trunk spewed out a yellow and turbid liquid, which flowed down the trunk to further block the invasion of the heat. New York's water supply system is so dense that the plague tree has broken through the water sources as it grows, pumping liquid from underground water pipes that can lower the temperature of gasoline to extinguish the flames.
This church is not a reinforced concrete structure. Zhang Haolin couldn't control the entire building to attack, but he also knew in his heart that even if the entire building collapsed, it would not be able to crush the terrifying behemoth of the Plague Tree or the powerful Dark Witch Queen. The destruction of the plague tree itself is not too urgent, after all, it can't run away, but Zhang Haolin wants to destroy the big ball that breeds plague flies first, so as not to cause branches......
With the crisp sound of gunshots, a string of bullets flew out of the chamber. Accelerated to the extreme in the magnetic field twisted into a spiral, it hit the Plague Ball hanging from the canopy with a loud boom, and the speed was so high that it melted into liquid at the moment of impact, and exploded into a bubble of metal sap at the impact, forming a cluster of dazzling small fireworks...... But even such an attack failed to break or shatter it as expected, only penetrating a transparent shield, and the huge amount of magic gushing out of the trunk of the tree instantly condensed into a new layer of magical protection, invulnerably guarding the plague ball.
The attack didn't work, but instead drew a counterattack from the giant tree. Its thick branches trembled and lifted up at the call of the Dark Witch Queen, and began to attack like arms, smashing down towards the source of the attack with the overwhelming force of Tarzan.
The Magnetic Controller easily used his abilities and agile body to dodge the attack, and the vines thicker than a man slammed into the ground, smashing the church floor into a dent. Compared to such plant attacks, the magic such as vine winding that the reincarnators used in the past was as childish and ridiculous as playing a house.
Anyone can dodge a branch, but with the support of a huge amount of magic. The Plague Tree can grow more branches and smash them down on everyone. Even if you can't hit someone and fall to the floor, you continue to disrupt your enemies in a sweeping manner.
Although the height of the church is more than fifteen meters, the size of the space is really average, and the enemy is an extremely fast black witch queen, Ani originally did not plan to transform, but only hid behind Zhang Haolin and manipulated the black ghosts of the subhumans to attack several dark wizards. But if this situation continues. The battle simply couldn't go on.
In a flash of light, the giant giantess appeared in the church, standing in front of the Plague Tree like a pillar of a building, raising her arm to grab the waving thick branches, holding them under her armpit and no longer harassing her teammates into battle.
The Dark Witch Queen's speed is astonishing. While controlling the Plague Tree with her magical powers, she also flickered around each reincarnation like an afterimage, avoiding the swordsman with the fastest reaction speed and picking on the slower ones - the old enemy Kurt and Zhang Haolin, who had previously fought with her, received "special preferential treatment", the witch hunter was already drenched in blood every minute, and Zhang Haolin wrapped himself and his teammates in a thick layer of liquid metal, and every time the Dark Witch Queen flashed past him, she would leave amazing scratches on the liquid armor that was thicker and stronger than asphalt, Even the spell-proof cloak and coat that were protected underneath had been torn apart, revealing the magnetic straitjacket that was hidden underneath.
"Slow down!" The force from the attacked area made him stagger back, and he had to limit the enemy's movements.
The pre-arranged means were unleashed with a loud shout, and Blue Rain continued to renew the air inside the church while quietly increasing the air pressure in the building. Zhang Haolin also took out a large bag of iron filings from the ring, and floated these tiny particles to distribute them evenly in the air around the reincarnations...... One of these two operations makes the air denser, and the other uses debris to affect the movement of everyone in it, although it is an indiscriminate means, but it also has a greater impact on the faster Dark Witch Queen.
Vines swung wildly beneath his feet, and fireballs or other spells flew overhead...... Most of the elders of the Holy Church are not very agile and have already suffered casualties under the frenzied volley of the Plague Tree, but the members of the Dark Wizard Council have also been killed by two teams and the plot characters. With limited movement and the attack of the Plague Tree being carried down by the giantess alone, the Dark Witch Queen finally did not dare to make any more reservations.
"Hmph." The queen just stood in the distance and snorted softly, and a surging spiritual fluctuation enveloped the world. Compared to witchcraft and hand-to-hand combat, the Dark Witch Queen's amazing mental abilities are her greatest hole cards, and with the magic provided by the Plague Tree, she can use her strongest moves with impunity. Just like the reincarnators used indiscriminate means to slow her down, the psychic attack used by the queen this time was also an indiscriminate hypnotic illusion, and the spiritual barrier did not play a defensive role, and everyone, including the caster, fell into the illusion.
――
The sun is shining, the grass is green, and the wind is mixed with the scent of flowers...... The view is superb. But the place where the scenery appears is quite eerie: surrounded by tall buildings, but deserted, crumbling facades, street lamps and billboards are crawling with vines, a thick layer of dust has accumulated on the pavement sandwiched between the buildings, weeds, shrubs and even trees have grown from the ground, and old rusty and dusty vehicles are parked everywhere.
The church is completely gone. In front of them was a plague tree that grew so tall without hindrance that it stood up to the sky like the legendary World Tree, and everyone had to look up 90° to see the top......
This is the world after the disappearance of humans, more precisely, "the world after the disappearance of humans imagined by the Dark Witch Queen".
"Memory magic can make you see the past, but only I can make you see the future." The Dark Witch Queen emerged from among the half-human-tall grass, caressing the plants around her, and said in a slow, long voice, "Humanity will eventually perish. I've taken back the world! ”
"How do you get out?"
"Seriously injure the Dark Witch Queen in the illusion, or break this illusion with stronger magic, or you will have to wait until she runs out of magic." Kurt held on to his injuries and held his sword to confront the enemy: "Something is wrong, I am much stronger than I was eight hundred years ago, but she seems to have become stronger. ”
"Branches...... It's too much, I can't stop it, help me! For the first time, Ani opened his mouth to ask his teammates for help in his spirit, but Zhang Haolin looked around and was surprised to find that the giantess did not appear in this illusion.
"What about the Arni?"
"That!" Illusions can't shield psychic scans. Wen Yu quickly pointed out Ani's location.
The huge plague tree was so large that it was impossible to visually deduce its diameter at the moment, but a long protrusion at the root of the tree caught Zhang Haolin's attention. This long strip is exactly about fifteen meters long and four or five meters wide, and it is the giantess who has been swallowed up and wrapped by the trunk of the tree!
"Something is wrong." An elder of the Holy Church retreated to the reincarnation in embarrassment to seek refuge: "It is the plague tree that absorbs the magic of the imprisoned sorcerer, and that's why it can grow like this!" ”
"How's the guy going down?" Although she was in the illusion world, Lan Yu still maintained the high air pressure around her with a serious face, and the viscous air made the Black Witch Queen dare to confront everyone from a distance. No longer easily rush to their side and hurt people with their claws.
"Let Weng Wei and Mao Dong use all means to kill all the imprisoned wizards!" Zhang Haolin said to Wen Yu seriously and decisively: "Use whatever method, bomb, spell. Knives, in short, the faster the better. ”
"What, you can't ......"
"We're not in your hands, Mr. Elder." Zhang Haolin said impatiently to the old guy of the Holy Church: "Now that the matter is urgent, it is natural to use emergency measures, and you can just put the responsibility on us afterwards!" ”
“……”
The Dark Witch Queen looked at everyone coldly from more than ten meters away, the plague was brewing, and it was in her favor to delay time, she was not in a hurry to do it at all.
"Let's use all the means, all the tasks that can be triggered are almost set off, and it's time to close the net." Zhang Haolin took out his usual steel rope and a large handful of high-magnetic marbles from the ring, and prepared to go all out: "The plague tree may have absorbed the magic power of a large number of dark wizards underground, and it is difficult to break the defense, so let's deal with the dark witch queen." ”
"Understood." Blue Rain signaled to her teammates in the spirit link, although the plague tree was still spewing thin poisonous smoke, but in order to exert stronger combat power, she stopped manipulating the giant cyclone, and the rapid flow of air around everyone calmed down......
It's time to deal with the enemy in one blow.
"Why can't you accept fate?" The Dark Witch Queen felt the drastic increase in the killing intent and momentum of the few people in front of her, and shook her head helplessly: "Since that's the case, then I'll help you......"
"Don't be ashamed." Zhang Haolin sneered, and the steel cable and a large amount of magnetic hard beads were driven by the invisible strings in the air, and suddenly rushed towards the enemy: "Let's see how you deal with this heaven and earth net first?" ”
The steel rope swept towards the Black Witch Queen, dozens of hard beads gained greater acceleration because of the small mass, and the last came first, sealing all the retreats of the Black Witch Queen, although her healing ability has been restored, but if she is hit by such a terrifying attack, she will definitely be beaten to death by the crowd on the opposite side in the time it takes to recover!
She stopped her ineffective psychological offensive and quickly recited a spell, and several branches sprouted from the plague tree to block the steel cable, while she jumped up and jumped into the air to avoid all of Zhang Haolin's attacks.
"Do it!"
The reincarnators waited for the moment when she leapt into the air with nowhere to focus, and the swordsman raised his weapon, bursting with the speed of the Queen, kicking a deep footprint on the ground and charging towards the enemy in mid-air.
"Haha...... "You want to kill yourself with such a simple cooperation?" The queen chuckled disdainfully, but the next moment, she realized that the other side was doing more than that.
Zhang Haolin let go of the first batch of hard beads that were missed, threw more out of the ring, and shot at the black witch queen who was stranded in the air again, at the same time, the spiritual abilities of the two teams also launched an all-out spiritual shock at the same time, and the combined spirit of the two was not as strong as the queen, but this blow did not seek to hurt the enemy, but only to delay the enemy's action for a moment.
The wind system ability had stopped controlling the atmospheric cyclone, and the surging magic power poured out, and the air pressure around the Dark Witch Queen instantly increased by more than ten times, and the air, which was originally just a little hinder, became as sticky as glue in the queen's senses at this moment...... She roared, dispelling the enemy's mental influence, and the stronger magic power in her body gushed out, breaking through the air barrier and making a dodge in the air, dodging another wave of steel balls while condensing a layer of magic shield-all dodge away, and the person with the sword will eventually have to fight her.
Leaving behind all distractions, Lan Yu was engrossed in manipulating the air pressure at the forefront of the battle, and her control of the air was incredibly precise - the air around the Dark Witch Queen's body was extremely viscous, and the attack path of her swordsman teammates was drawn into a near-vacuum by her brute force. In this environment, the capillaries of ordinary people would burst, but for the physically strong swordsman reincarnation, this near-vacuum environment made him feel like a tiger, and across the agility difference of two hundred, he managed to do it faster than the enemy!
――
The Dark Witch Queen is the strongest wizard in this world, but her defense power is still not comparable to the plague tree that connects hundreds of imprisoned wizards.
Yellow-brown blood splattered out from the wound, and the injured Dark Witch Queen let out a sharp and terrible scream, and the spiritual impact contained in it was blocked by the two teams of spiritual abilities with a spiritual barrier, and both of them turned pale.
The surrounding visions trembled violently, but the attacks of the reincarnators did not stop.
The highly magnetic hard bead material used by Zhang Haolin is unknown, but the magnetism is hundreds of times stronger than iron...... Although the exchange price of a single piece is not high, the cumulative quantity is still quite amazing, and it naturally cannot be wasted......
The hard beads that shot into the surrounding walls and floors and even the shield of the plague tree floated into the air again under the drive of the twisting magnetic field, and with the pursuit of the swordsman, they did not give the Dark Witch Queen a chance to breathe and heal!
"Damn!" Forced to have nowhere to hide from the non-stop attacks, the queen roared, and turned into black butterflies scattered in the sky, sword qi and hard beads split and scattered dozens of them, but the rest of the brain flew towards the plague tree.
A rapidly spinning cyclone was created in the air to strangle the black butterflies that the queen had turned into, but the plague tree flashed with brilliance, and the magic shield instantly enlarged to protect all the flying insects in it, and the queen successfully hid under the protection of the plague tree, and began to recover under the nourishment of the huge amount of magical power.
