Chapter Twenty-Seven: "Venom Demon" (Second Recommendation Vote)
Because of the many magical magics, Lucien was relieved enough that he had checked the drinks, but he didn't expect that this reassurance would become a fatal loophole today, and he unknowingly drank a glass of "Sky Blue" mixed with terrifying toxins and strange curses.
No, it's not just drinks!
Lucien's gaze looked at Camille, as an eighth-level heavenly knight who protected Natasha, she would not touch a little wine and eat half a mouthful of food on this occasion, but her face was still dark, her body trembled uncontrollably, and she wanted to turn into a "tide" but only a layer of blue water floated, and then disappeared without a trace, showing obvious symptoms of poisoning and curse!
Where exactly do the toxins and curses come from?
Lucien suddenly smelled a faint and sweet floral scent on the tip of his nose, like the smell of an open-air banquet place outside, but it was lighter, sweeter, and intoxicating.
There's something wrong with this floral scent!
It must have been a mole or someone who took advantage of it and brought in something that emitted this floral fragrance, mixed with the wine and the smell of alcohol that had also been manipulated in advance, making the wine and air become unimaginably poisonous and cursed, no wonder I didn't find it when I checked it!
But now is not the time to look for who is the mole or accomplice, Lucien staggered towards Natasha, his eyes blurred and shaking, as if he was completely drunk, not only could not concentrate, but even his hands and feet were a little floating.
Fortunately, Lucien has the Ring of Congus, which dissolves the poison, and is not like Camille, James and others, who are wooden, as if drunk. He also has rapid fatigue and difficulty supporting himself.
With a snap, Count Haisong, who did not stimulate the knight's strength, fell to the ground softly, his limbs spread out, without strength, his eyes were blurred, and he fell into a "hangover".
Lucien's body still maintained its strength, and slowly approached Natasha like a drunken fist, if his current heavy brain and soul were not mistaken, the "Sword of Truth", a top-level bloodline that can cut off everything, is immune to curses. So Natasha should just be poisoned at this point. The body is passing quickly, and the mind and consciousness are still clear, as long as she wears the "health belt" and activates the effect of this object. Then her toxins will be eliminated quickly.
This level 8 high-level magic item. Also immune to the following toxins of the legend!
As for the Ring of Congus. Even if Lucien wanted to give it to Natasha, she couldn't use it.
Bang, and the sound of falling to the ground sounded again. Count Davy, who was the second weakest, also collapsed on the ground like Count Seapine, but his consciousness had not yet completely entered a state of "drunkenness", and he moved his eyes from side to side anxiously and nervously.
The power of the curse converged from his lungs, from his stomach to his neck, and extended upward, affecting Lucian's brain and soul, which made his head swell, his heart beat faster, his forehead horns and blood vessels seemed to explode at any moment, and his mental power was so oppressed that he could only barely support it, and he couldn't use a single magic to activate an object.
Staggering over to Natasha, Lucien took off his belt and wrapped it around her waist.
Natasha's voice was low, as if she was struggling to speak, "I can't concentrate my will...... It's hard to use magic items, you, you go quickly, the target, the target should be my ......"
As if he didn't hear her words, Lucien wrapped his hands around her waist, buckled his health belt, and said with a wooden tongue: "Try to control...... Will...... The effects of the toxin have not yet been ...... Completely...... There should still be a chance...... Activate the magic item ......"
Natasha didn't waste time, she didn't give up, her clear silver-purple eyes contained strength, trying to control her will, and at the same time she urged again: "Hurry up, you still have strength...... Velocity...... Go to the nobles outside...... Asking for help......"
That way, at least Lucien wouldn't die with him.
And he can pursue that illusory glimmer of hope without other worries.
Crisp applause came from the door: "What a touching couple, I hope you can be together forever after you die." ”
Lucien looked up, only to see a strange man with dark green hair coming in at the door, his eyes had no pupils, only a palpitating white, and his body was also dressed strangely, and he was wearing a black cloak on a hot day, enveloping his whole body.
The strange man in his thirties pressed his chest and gave a gentlemanly salute very politely: "Your Majesty the Queen, please allow me to introduce myself, I am the 'Venom Demon' of the Dark Council, Pirimas. ”
"Venom Demon" Pirimas, the sixty-second powerhouse of the purification sequence, the ninth-level dark knight, the bloodline of the Demon King, famous for poisons and curses, although the ranking is lower than Lucian, but his own strength is undoubtedly above Lucian.
Natasha didn't answer him, concentrating on her will, and Lucien was also using her mental power to fight the power of the curse.
Pirimas didn't do it immediately, but babbled and said, "You don't know me, that's okay, as long as you know that I'm here to kill you." The Council has been waiting for the Southern Church and the Magic Council to go to war for a long time, and the old men have sent me after you have also chosen to balance under Her Majesty the Queen of the Wisdom Dao. ”
He seemed to be affected by his own Demon King's bloodline, and as if he felt that victory was in his hands, so he seemed a little neurotic and behaved quite chaotically.
"As long as you kill Her Majesty the Queen, kill Mr. Lucien Evans, kill Duke James and you, and then disguise yourself as a radical night watchman, then it will be difficult for the church and the magical council to start a full-scale war, by the way, I forgot to tell you, I am very good at simulation, especially good at simulating the knights of the poison and cursed bloodline, and the fifth place of the night watch is the 'cursed angel' Gwill, I think I have enough ability to convince both the legendary mage and the Holy Spirit priest that it is him. ”
Listening to the nagging of his nerves, both Lucien and Natasha seized the opportunity to expel the curse or toxin power from their bodies, but it seemed that as time went on, the stronger the effect they played, and both of them were a little difficult to stand still, the difference was that Lucien was dizzy and Natasha was weak in her limbs.
Pirimas seemed unaware of the efforts of the two, and did not care that Duke James and the others were unable to answer because they did not have the strength to answer. Contentistically, he continued: "In order to kill you, I have spent a lot of energy, controlled a lot of squires and florists, and slightly changed the species of plants in the garden, if Duke James is a true lover of flowers, you should have noticed something wrong, but unfortunately, you just like to show off, so when you entered this secret room with the fragrance of flowers, the harmless little things in the wine went berserk." ”
"In order not to arouse the vigilance of your will and the premonition of the Lord of Fate. I didn't use violent and deadly toxins and curses. Instead, it uses a roundabout weakening and paralyzing type, which looks pretty good, and gives me plenty of time to get out of the way of your will, Duke James. ”
His words confirmed Lucian's suspicions, and seemed to rule out the possibility of a mole.
But this kind of thing. How could Lucien believe him as a madman.
"Ha Lu Ha. Do you think I'm a madman? Why don't you do it, talk to you here, and give you enough time to get rid of the toxins and curses?"
Lucien was shocked. He seemed to think of something, but the power of the curse that poured into his head from his neck made his brain congested, and his mind slowed down, making it difficult for him to be as sharp as usual.
Pirimas laughed and said, "My mixture of toxins and curses is called 'Kiss of Powerlessness', and the longer it drags on, the more powerless it becomes, so I let you listen to my nagging for the absolute certainty of my hands, and you are very cooperative, I am very pleased." ”
After saying that, he clapped his hands: "Pour! pour!"
Bang, bang, bang, three voices sounded in a row, Duke Russell and Camille fell first, a trace of despair hidden in their eyes with hatred, and then Duke James, the golden knight, also staggered to his knees, as if his feet could no longer support his body.
"Oh, worthy of Her Majesty the Queen and Lucien, Mr. Evans, how can you last so long, hehe, let me guess, it must be the blood of Her Majesty the Queen that can remove the power of the curse, and Mr. Evans, you have equipment that is immune to toxins. Pirimas moved his wrist as if he was ready to make a move.
Lucien quietly stepped forward, his mind was muddy, and he fell into an unprecedented state of chaos, with only one thought in his heart, which was to stand in front of Natasha, but the methodical thinking he had formed for a long time made him still grasp the possibility of turning defeat into victory, that is, to lure Pirimas close, take advantage of his unpreparedness, and attack with his left hand, hoping that the neutralization ability of this "God's Left Hand" could make his supernatural power of the ninth-level dark knight disappear and really hurt him.
Pirimas chuckled in a low voice, "Not only can you kill people this time, but it seems that you can also harvest a lot of items, Mr. Evans, you are a rare 'moving treasure' with so many magical items." ”
He gently untied his cloak, revealing a nightmarish body, a shell covered in abscesses, pale yellow or dark green pus gurgling and bubbling and corroding everything, leaving only a few pieces of fabric left in the clothes.
"So, please die!" Primas moved, and Lucien couldn't catch him, let alone attack him with his left hand.
After he really started attacking, he was not careless at all, and completely regarded Lucien as an opponent of the same level, so although his hand-to-hand combat strength was obviously inferior to the normal ninth level, it was not something that Lucien could compete with now.
Pong, a pale yellow and dark green figure flashed to Lucien's side and slammed into his chest.
The force that seemed to poison even the air made Lucian's head even heavier, and his left hand was raised, but he couldn't keep up with the speed of Pirimas, and a sharp pain came from his chest.
Without a sound, Lucien vanished, and then jerked into the shadows of the doorway.
The pre-prepared spell of "Spell Trigger" saved Lucien's life at a critical moment.
"Yo, I've forgotten that you're a magician, Mr. Evans, and I don't think you can escape anymore, right?" Pyrimas mocked Lucien wantonly, unfurled his figure again, and rushed to Lucian's side with unimaginable speed.
Lucien barely raised his left hand to his chest, but the figure of Pirimas disappeared in front of him, flashed behind him, and kicked at his vest, a pale yellow curse and dark green toxin swirling upwards.
Bang, in the midst of a dull sound, the three layers of gray skin that suddenly appeared on Lucian's body were shattered, and obvious gaps appeared in the immortal throne robe, and Lucian's whole person was kicked and flew to Natasha's side, blood spurted out of his mouth, and his back was in sharp pain.
If it weren't for the eight-ring "spell ordering" learned a few days ago, and the three four-ring magic "stone skin techniques" were fixed in advance, Lucien would probably die directly this time!
"Not dead yet, that's why I hate magicians the most!" said Pirimas became a little irritable.
Duke James and the others, who were lying on the ground, were curious about how Lucien had dodged the second wave of Pirimas's attack, and tried to concentrate their will, but to little avail.
Suddenly, Pirimas turned into a dark green spear and stabbed at Lucian, who had fallen to the ground.
Lucien finally turned around with his uncontrollable hands and feet, and saw such a scene, wanting to use magic to resist, but his spiritual power still couldn't be condensed, and he was suppressed by the curse force.
Are you going to die here?
Suddenly, a figure appeared in front of Lucian, and with a slash of the sword, a gap appeared, blocking the spear.
However, the power of the spear was so terrifying that through the long sword, it pierced directly through her body, and warm blood spilled onto Lucian's abdomen, chest, and face.
"Natasha......" Lucien said subconsciously.
Natasha's cheeks showed an abnormal flush, the puncture wound between her chest and abdomen was difficult to recover due to the impact of the toxin, a large amount of blood was quickly lost, and her feet trembled obviously, as if she could not stand firmly, but her voice was low and firm:
"Knight, you should be in the way. (To be continued......)
