Chapter Twenty-Three: The Undercurrent

Hain unleashed two swords of scorching, but he didn't dare to attack easily, the strength of the opponent had already occupied the shadow in his heart, Hain was already afraid before he started the battle, he knew that there was no way to win in such a situation. Now the ultimate goal is how to make your teammates escape.

Hain leaned down, his feet moving inch by inch, his spirit tense to the limit, and at all times he was on the verge of Nova to himself or Geist.

Geist covered the wound in his stomach, it stands to reason that the Western sword was very slender, and the damage caused should not be so serious, but I don't know why I didn't even have the strength to move my feet, and my whole body felt paralyzed. Could it be that this Nova is capable of? "Hain, leave me alone, you still have a chance to leave now. My whole body can't move, my brain is paralyzed and won't turn, and if this continues, both of us will die here!" Gist tried to persuade Hain, but Hain didn't listen to him at all.

"I appreciate this team spirit of yours, and if we had the spirit of your apostles, the light of hope would have been long gone. This is also the question I have been thinking about, now it seems that the apostles are completely superior to human beings in terms of numbers and strength, but why are we still unable to conquer this rich land after more than ten years?

"Master, you are thinking about the future of the apostles, but they are now a plate of scattered sand, I'm afraid it will ......" Nova interrupted the golden eagle's words with a sharp look, not to expose too much information inside the apostles in front of humans, this is Nova's usual style.

"It's almost going to be solved as soon as possible, Xiao Run, you stay away, we still have important things to deal with later!" Nova had been wondering why that man had made the light of hope here weaker than the other two, was there any purpose? What was hidden in this mountain, he just vaguely felt that there was something strange about the concentration of Lute here. Why those low-ranking apostles fought here is a mystery. The reason can only be known if you find that person.

Nova couldn't wait any longer, he raised his right hand, his thumb and middle finger clasped, and snapped his fingers crisply, "Let you see something interesting!"

The stone slabs on the ground have been baptized many times, and they have long been broken and messy. But it was on the ground of such a ruined ruin that countless vines of green plants with a diameter of one meter instantly stretched out. These vines exude a purple scent. Seeing Geist's behavior, Hain deduced that if he touched the vines, he might experience the same symptoms as Geist.

Hain deftly dodged some of the fast-growing vines, and once he couldn't dodge, he swung his blade, and the red and blue light flashed, cutting the vines off. But the severed vines fluttered on the ground like the tentacles of a squid, and then sprouted new rhizomes that dug deep into the stone bricks.

"It's useless, my vines are the strongest lifeforms, and your blade is not enough to cut them off. Nova warned.

"Hehe, since it's a plant, you should be afraid of this, right?" Hain closed his eyes, and a flame burned on his body. The plants around him began to evade his body and grow in the opposite direction. 'Sure enough, it works!!' Hain thought to himself as he walked over to Geist's side. He crouched down and patted Geist on the shoulder, "How's it going? Hain pressed Geist's wound and could see the power of the Water Blade seep into Geist's body. This trick will temporarily help him stop the bleeding.

At this time, Geist's arm was no longer so paralyzed, and he pushed Hain's hand away, "Hurry up, look around!" Hain was thinking about how to save Geist, but he didn't notice that there was already a forest around them, and he couldn't see Emily and Lorte outside at all. The vine forest has grown to the limit, and the sunlight is no longer able to penetrate a few rays.

At this time, a hand was placed on Hain's shoulder, Hain felt his shoulder a little paralyzed, and he turned his head sharply with a two-color sword light, but there was no one behind him, only a vine was chopped down by his own sword light. Hain was a little confused, and at that moment he felt Nova Lute, but ...... Hain took two steps back, then an arm caught around his neck, and he felt like he was having trouble breathing, as if his breathing muscles were paralyzed.

Geist raised his pistol to Hain's head, and Hain didn't know why, "You...... Be careful...... Behind ...... "This time Hayne saw Nova behind Geist, and half of this Nova body was connected to the tree behind Geist. Then the one who strangles his neck must be the same thing.

The Nova right hand behind Geist turned into a conical brown piece of wood, which looked like a wooden lance, and although it was wood, it was deadly sharp. In desperation, Hain sprouted a flame in his left hand and threw it at the Nova. Almost at the same time, Geist pulled the trigger and the bullet hit Nova behind Hain, who in turn burned Nova behind Geist to ashes. Even if the crisis was temporarily lifted, both of them gasped and sighed for the situation just now.

"This forest is my body, I don't know if you have thought of how to defeat the whole forest. Haha!" Nova laughed maniacally. He stepped out of one of the largest plants in front of Hain. "Human, what a weak creature! Do you value your fellow man? ”

Hain looked back at Geist, and indeed if he let go of himself and ran away now, the probability of survival would be high. But what's the point of living alone?" "Cut, even if you try your best this time, you won't make any more mistakes. Hain swung his blade at Nova.

Nova stood motionless, not in the slightest intention of making a move. I saw six huge plant vines growing under his feet, with huge thorns on the vines, and if they were hit once, they would definitely turn into a sieve. Hain swung his blade, sometimes in the water, sometimes in flames. The light was full of anger in Hain's heart, and the song of ice and fire could not sing Hain's heart, and only wielding the blade to his heart could give him a little comfort.

Hayne swung the blade many times, whether it was the huge blue water tide slash or the flame slash of the fire blade. It was lightly blocked by the vines, and it disappeared. These plants are not ordinary plants, and it seems that their own lut is easily absorbed. No matter how hard Hain tried, he couldn't even touch Nova, let alone hurt him in the slightest.

Nova's body instantly appeared in front of Hain, waved his palm, and 'snapped' to give Hain a slap, this slap was crisp, not to mention the strength, Hain was even a little dizzy. Hain swung his blade, but it only slashed into the air. At this speed, Hain simply can't win.

In this way, Hain seemed to be wrestling with the air, but the damage to his body was real. After a few slaps, Hain's eyes were already a little blurry, and it felt as if there were a lot of Nova figures spinning. The stomach and waist were also kicked a few times.

"Don't hold on, we're not on the same level as him at all, let's go!" Gist pleaded with Hain. Watching his teammates continue to be hurt for himself, I was crying inside.

There was already blood running down Hain's forehead, and he looked at Geist with a smile, "It's impossible! I haven't lost yet!" he struggled to stand up. "Looks like we can only try the purgatory-state water blade?" The water that was hidden in the ground before, I thought that it might be able to be used to hit this Nova, but now it seems that it can only be ......,' Hain thought to himself. Nova had already stood in front of him and kicked him in the forehead, and Hain was kicked out like a ball, hitting the thick vines before stopping, and several spikes sprouted from the vines, which plunged into his body and held him firmly in place.

Hain screamed twice in pain, his resolute gaze undefeated by the continuous attacks, and he glared at Nova angrily. "You...... Isn't it amazing?" Then Hayne let go of his grip on the blade, and the blade fell vertically to the ground, like a pool of water, and when the blade touched the ground, the ground of the stone slab rippled, and the blade disappeared.

"Boy, your eyes are good, although they are still a little weaker. What's your name, you'll be the first human I remember to kill by me. Hain's look made Nova a little admired, and it was rare to maintain confidence in such a situation.

Waters were rising on the ground, and soon the speed was no longer than Nova's ankles. "Whoa......," the monster kept roaring, coming from underwater. A dragon swims in the water, jumping out of the water from time to time, and its huge body sweeps the vine forest to more than half at once.

Hain's body ignited even more fierce flames that turned the vines that pierced his body into ashes, and Hain stood on the water, his body did not sink, the water was like a part of his body, allowing him to float steadily. "Prison of Clear Water!" Hain's trick didn't work on Nova but trapped Geist.

"Goodbye, Geyster!" Hain's voice seemed weak as the waves crashed on the shore, and he wondered if he had heard the farewell. I saw a wave rushing in, sweeping the water prison that wrapped Geist into the distance.

"Where should be the direction of Loerte, I hope you can land smoothly. Hain muttered to himself.

"This move of yours is a purgatory-state blade, right? Hmph, you have been gathering strength to release this trick, right? No wonder you have been beaten, and you haven't fought back very decently, it turns out that you are waiting for this moment. It seems that you have prepared for death. ”

Hayne had injected most of the power of the Water Blade into the ground from the time he had fought with the Golden Eagle before, brewing at this moment, and the outcome was about to be decided.

"Nova, Hayne is my name. I hope you don't underestimate the power of humanity......"
