Chapter 347: Counterattack
"Looks like your companion has been on the back foot! It's all my fault! Li Yang sat on the ground and watched the battle in the enchantment, feeling more and more hopeless.
"It's not your fault alone, if anyone is at fault, it's the fault of the monster that bewitched you and took the opportunity to occupy your body." Xia Qiu patted him on the shoulder and comforted him.
Li Yang remembered that this was the first time, in the moment when he felt pain and helplessness, someone was willing to give him comfort, and from her tone, he couldn't hear the meaning of pity, and there was no dodge in her eyes.
Although he had only just met this girl, he found a sense of healing in her, which may have come from a power in her soul. It wasn't until this moment that he realized that if his current self was just a soul, then she ......
"...... are you?!" He blurted out.
"My name is Xia Qiu, and I'm in the same school as you, but one grade lower than you." Xia Qiu replied without thinking, his eyes still staring at Ouyang Xiaoleng's figure in the battle without blinking.
"I'm not asking this, I mean I didn't react just now, since I'm a soul, what about you?" Li Yang continued to ask with some incoherence.
"Oh, you're talking about this, I have the ability to leave my soul, so it's only my soul that is by your side at the moment!"
Her answer did not make the doubts in Li Yang's heart lessen, on the contrary, when the fear of losing his body gradually faded, his curiosity increased, and he asked again: "Is there ...... Who the hell are you?! β
This question stumped Xia Qiu, how to explain to him what they do? And even if he knew the answer now, after seeing her, Ouyang Xiaoleng, and Ran Mingzhu's various abilities that were different from ordinary people, his and Kong Xin's memories were destined to be erased.
She was silent for a moment, thinking that since his memory would soon be erased, it would be better to give him a random answer than to go through the trouble of trying to explain it, so she said, "Actually, we are...... Demon Hunter. β
"Demon Trapper, is this the one who is here to deal with monsters like the one that controls my body right now?! It turns out that there really is such a group of people! I thought you were just legends! Li Yang nodded as if he didn't understand, feeling a little excited.
Xia Qiu sighed and refocused her attention on the battle within the enchantment.
Just now, Ouyang Xiaoleng had another great opportunity to detour behind the opponent and catch him, but the opponent once again took advantage of his inability to hurt Li Yang's body and launched a closer close attack, so he had to give up this opportunity, and instead turned to retreat while defending.
Ran Mingzhu, who was not far away, couldn't stand it for a long time, because the opponent was too despicable. She now has to admire Ouyang Xiaoleng's patience, if it were her, she might have made a mistake due to impatience. She pulled her string of bells from her pocket and wrapped them around her hand, chanting a spell as she danced her arms to make them rattle rhythmically.
This is a high-level spell that has been passed down from generation to generation in the Ran family, and its effect is directly related to the caster's level and concentration. Although she didn't know very well how capable the parasite that controlled Li Yang's body was, it was using a human body after all, so it shouldn't be so difficult to restrict, if it was changed to a monster's body, with her current strength, I am afraid she would not be able to do it.
As the spell was repeated in Ran Mingzhu's mouth, Xia Qiu, who was in a state of detachment, saw that the spell was gradually materializing along her arm. One by one, the strangely shaped symbols seemed to be rings after rings, and finally connected into chains that she held tightly in her hands.
The chain spun and rushed towards Li Yang's body, which was controlled by the monster, and tied his arms, and the monster said contemptuously: "Your companion is really naΓ―ve, she thinks that this kind of carving insect skill can also bind me?!" β
As soon as the words fell, the monster only flickered lightly, and broke the chain that had been conjured by the spell.
But Mingzhu didn't give up, not once, she decided to try again.
This time her energy is more concentrated than before, and she has a characteristic, that is, the more she faces opponents who are stronger than herself, the more unwilling she is to admit defeat easily, and it is easier to stimulate her own potential. Her grandfather, Ran Tianqi, had told her when he was alive that he was very optimistic about her abilities, because she, like her aunt Ran Mingzhu, had rare talents. Even in response to her grandfather's expectations, she had to prove herself.
The sound of her chanting spell continued to expand, and the spell and strength of the dangling bell in her hand also changed, and the short hair that was just past her ears exploded in all directions with the increase in the mana from the demon hunter. This time, the chain formed by the spell was much thicker than before, and it rushed towards Li Yang's body that was empty by the monster at a faster speed, binding his arms here.
"Damn!" The monster tried to break free, but couldn't break the chain.
Ouyang Xiaoleng, on the other hand, took this opportunity to knock off the sword in his hand and detoured behind him to hold his body. Although the monster was still struggling incessantly, it was not so easy to act because it was bound by the chains formed by Ran Mingzhu's spell and held down by Ouyang Xiaoleng.
"Since you have such a trick, why didn't you use it earlier?!" Ouyang Xiaoleng complained expressionlessly.
"Hey, it's obvious that you're not strong yourself, but I helped you, okay?! You don't even say thank you, but you complain about me?! Ran Mingzhu said angrily through the enchantment.
"Don't talk about this yet, you should have a way to get this guy out of Li Yang's body, although your level is not very good, but you are also a demon hunter." Ouyang Xiaoleng shouted at Ran Mingzhu, and he pulled the monster's arm behind him, making him lie down with his face to the ground.
"Are you ordering me?! Since you think I'm not good, let's figure it out by myself! Ran Mingzhu said, turning her face to the side.
"Well, there's no spirit of cooperation at all! Forget it, I can't count on you, I really don't understand what you're doing with it! Ouyang Xiaoleng didn't mean to take care of Ran Mingzhu's mood at all, and he still said whatever he thought.
"Now is not the time to quarrel, you two! If you don't let Li Yang return to his body soon, it will cause damage to his soul! Xia Qiu was secretly anxious on the side, she felt in a trance that when Qianqi first joined them last year, she and Ouyang Xiaoleng were also like this, although now he has made progress in getting along with people, but Ran Mingzhu is a girl with more personality, and it is inevitable that she will argue with him.
"I finally got this body, and it wasn't that easy for me to get out of it." At this time, the monster who was held down by Ouyang Xiaoleng spoke.
"What's your!" Ouyang Xiaoleng was angry for a while, and the strength to suppress the monster was heavier, but he actually heard a click.
"Hahaha, you almost broke his arm! Am I right? Your true nature is about to be revealed so soon! By the way, you probably don't know, right? As a parasite, I don't feel this physical pain at all, so you have to think about how to force me to leave. The monster laughed and said.
"Mingzhu, don't worry about Xiao Leng, think of a way!" Xia Qiu shouted at Ran Mingzhu.
"Well, let me think!" Ran Mingzhu searched for ways to deal with parasitic beings in the knowledge stored in her brain, although she learned a lot, but the practical application was relatively small, so when she really encountered a situation, her reaction seemed a little slow, "There is!" Who, you brought him from the barrier to me! β
Although Ouyang Xiaoleng was quite dissatisfied with Ran Mingzhu not calling his name, he still tried his best to control his emotions and picked up the monster from the ground and walked in the direction of Ran Mingzhu.
As soon as the monster had a chance to rise from the ground, it suddenly summoned back its sword, which was coiled with poisonous snakes. The poisonous snake bit hard, and the chain formed by Ran Mingzhu's spell was broken, and he took the opportunity to kick Ouyang Xiaoleng, and escaped from him by relying on the rebound of this force.
"This monster is cunning!" Ran Mingzhu said angrily, he didn't expect his thoughts to give it a chance to get out.
She thought that Ouyang Xiaoleng would complain about her this time, but he didn't do it, he just dusted off the dirty clothes kicked by the monster and said: "I have always hated it when others dirty my clothes, since you don't occupy that body, then I will kill him together!" β
"You...... How come?! The monster's voice began to tremble.
It didn't believe that Ouyang Xiaoleng would harm the body it was using, but from his eyes, it clearly saw the killing intent. If he was the same as he was now, his patience would probably have reached the end of his patience, and if that was the case, it would be dangerous.
"Will I?! Give it a try! Ouyang Xiaoleng said as he stabbed a sword towards the opponent in front of him, and this sword did not hesitate at all, aiming directly at the position of the heart on Li Yang's body.
"What is he going to do?! Let him stop! Li Yang's soul saw that his body was about to be hit hard, and he couldn't help but ask Xia Qiu for help.
"Are you really going to kill him?!" Ran Mingzhu was also scared enough.
But Xia Qiu still had a calm expression, because she trusted Ouyang Xiaoleng, the signatory of her blood alliance, from the bottom of her heart, so she knew that Li Yang's body would be fine.
"Looks like you're really going to kill him." The monster was shocked by Ouyang Xiaoleng's powerful aura, and while resisting his attack with the sword in his hand, he retreated backwards, this time it was his turn to be completely suppressed, Ouyang Xiaoleng's move was fatal, and he didn't want to fight back, even defense seemed difficult.
"I'm tired of playing this game with you, I didn't want to end this game in this way, but unfortunately you have to force me to change the rules of the game."
Ouyang Xiaoleng's attack was even more fierce, first slashing horizontally with the Night God Ice, which shook the sword in the opponent's hand and almost fell, followed by another stab, and his target was still the opponent's heart.
"Ahh The monster hurriedly dodged to the side, barely dodging the blow, but a cut in its left arm.
Even if it doesn't feel the slightest pain from the physical injuries it uses, its strength will weaken as a result, and if it lacks strength, it will most likely be caught by the opponent. So, it knew that if it wanted to escape, it had to do so now.
