Chapter 29: The Scarlet Skull
Suddenly, He Qi felt a chill coming from his chest.
He quickly sideways to avoid the bone spur that stabbed him in the chest
Although the bone spurs cut through He Qi's clothes, they only left a shallow wound.
He Qi didn't care about this, there were more than a dozen wounds like this on his body.
But the skeleton that caught his eye at this time was a little different from the skeleton he had fought before.
Compared to the other skeletons, the body in front of it is dark red.
In its hollow eye sockets, two unusual red flames danced. It's faint, but it's still inspiring.
The two skeletal wings that split off its back make it look even more extraordinary.
The other skeletons around them all gave up their attacks on He Qi after seeing this red skeleton and scattered in all directions.
He Qi looked at the thing in front of him with a solemn face.
Whether it is from the performance just now, or from the attitude of the skeletons around him now, the red skeleton in front of him will be his great enemy at this time.
"How long are you going to go!!" He Qi shouted loudly at the big white dog, and he felt a smell of danger.
"Some of the skeletons have already arrived with me, and it may take a little while. The voice of the big white dog sounded in He Qi's ears.
In this regard, He Qi could only say that he did his best, with his strength, it was already the limit to be able to delay so many skeletons, and those skeletons would not choose to besiege him because of his active provocation.
However, although he couldn't see the situation on the big white dog's side at this time, he could hear from the other party's tone that it shouldn't be a big problem.
Thinking of this, He Qi restrained his distracting thoughts, quietly looked at the red skeleton in front of him, and made a defensive posture.
In He Qi's line of sight, the red skeleton on the opposite side turned into a dark red afterimage and attacked him again.
The bone spurs in front of him were like cold rays, blooming with a cold aura in the darkness.
He Qi touched the ground with both feet, sideways to dodge the blow, and chose to temporarily retreat from the enemy's sharp moves.
The red skeleton seemed to have expected He Qi's move, and then its body spun rapidly.
The wings behind him were like sharp blades slashing towards He Qi.
He Qi's eyes were like lightning, and he quickly raised the long sword in his hand to meet it
"Bang!" the touch between the long sword and the bone wing erupted into fierce sparks.
He Qi suddenly felt the tremendous strength coming from his hand, and he gritted his teeth to exert his strength to the limit and pushed the red skeleton away.
Then he swung his sword sideways and slashed at the opponent's waist, leaving a slight crack on it.
After receiving this blow, the Red Skeleton's attack did not weaken, but was stronger than before.
He Qi saw that the flickering fire in his eyes actually increased a few points.
The other party's bone spurs like stone cites continued to leave afterimages in the air, thumping in the collision with He Qi's long sword.
The short stalemate didn't give He Qi much advantage, although the other party's body was also injured by his own long sword in many places.
But rubble can't compare with porcelain after all.
At this time, bright red blood stains could be seen on He Qi's torn clothes.
"It seems that I can only try this trick!" He Qi secretly thought that the only martial skill he could use was one sword splitting move, and the previous battles were all based on physical instinct, at this time He Qi finally understood the impact of the lack of martial arts on strength.
Unlike when he used it before, He Qi now had to gather his aura onto the long sword.
A long time ago, He Qi wanted to try to introduce the aura into the long sword, because of the blessing of Mithril, even if the long sword was just a mortal weapon, according to He Qi's prediction, it should be able to withstand the power of his aura.
Due to too much uncertainty, He Qi has not dared to take too many risks.
Now that they have reached this point, there is no room for He Qi to hesitate anymore.
The black aura slowly merged into the long sword like a stream of water, and after receiving the blessing of He Qi's aura, the long sword actually emitted a faint faint light.
And the stripes on the long sword are even more dazzling at the moment, and the dark light can be faintly seen flickering.
He Qi quietly closed his eyes and used his divine sense to feel the surrounding scene.
The skeletons gathered around him were suddenly imprinted in his mind like a picture.
He silently raised his sword, and the image of the man's blow flashed through his mind again.
At this moment, he finally realized the mood of the man at that time.
What he is facing now is not the same as his.
Only by destroying everything in front of us can we welcome new life.
This blow is to die and survive.
Only when there are no distractions can we move forward.
He Qi is not a strong man, but he wants to be a strong man in his heart.
He didn't need to pay attention to which monsters reacted, and he didn't need to care about the cost of defeat. All he had to do now was swing the sword.
Time seems to stand still at this moment.
The long sword pierced the sky, carrying the momentum of a ruined cauldron.
For a while, the sand flew away, and the wind roared.
Powerful sword qi burst out from the long sword, converging into a dark dragon that seemed to come from the abyss and headed straight ahead.
This blow was not aimed at the red skeleton, but at all the skeletons that stood in his way.
The red skeleton seemed to feel the other party's contempt for it at this moment.
It roared in the sky, its voice like a ghost.
The fire in his eyes rushed out of his sockets and began to spread like his body.
The red skeleton's body began to burn under the erosion of the firelight, and the scorching temperature spread through the void, forming faint ripples.
Then it flitted its already flame-stained wings and floated in the air. Raising the bone spur, it turned into a little light and shadow, and quickly flew in the direction where He Qi was.
"Bang!!" The black sword qi and the red skeleton collided in an instant, and a huge explosion exploded in the void.
The energy spread, and the other skeletons around it instantly turned into pieces.
But the red skeleton was still standing there, and even He Qi's last move still didn't bring it substantial damage.
He Qi sighed, after using this move, the energy in his body had been exhausted, and the strength in his body had become very weak.
He looked at the red skeleton in front of him vigilantly, even though the flames on the other party's body had dimmed a lot, it still made He Qi feel desperate.
But He Qi didn't give up there, he held the long sword with trembling hands, ready to resist the impending death.
"Bang!" The sound of impact came, and He Qi once again blocked the red skeleton's attack, he wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and dodged sideways.
At this time, He Qi was no longer able to fight the other party, he could only use his flexible body and powerful divine sense to dodge the opponent's attack, so as to contain the other party.
Now He Qi only hopes that the dead dog will not let himself down.
