Chapter 39: Tangled
A huge Death Scythe suddenly occupied all of Aldrich's vision, and the black blade was wrapped with endless wails, it was the breath of the dead, and all the lives harvested by the Death Scythe, the soul would become a part of it.
Ron held the Death Scythe and slashed at the Blood Wolf, and the Grim Reaper came to harvest the soul.
The Grim Reaper's scythe sliced through the void, and the moment it touched the blood wolf, an illusory shadow was pulled by the power of the wailing dead, and it almost burst out, it was an illusory blue beetle.
The scythe was about to sweep past the illusory blue beetle, and a burst of black mist suddenly emanated from the blood wolf's body, enveloping it in it.
After cutting through the black mist, the phantom of the scythe began to dim, and the wails of the dead faded into obscurity, and finally disappeared without a trace.
The blood wolf rushed out of the black mist without any damage, but the light of the earrings was extremely dim.
The first shot was blocked by the Reaper's Scythe.
The running blood wolf gave a bloodthirsty grin, and then it saw a scene that terrified it, and a death scythe appeared behind Ron.
Ron's face was expressionless, and he once again held the Death Scythe and slashed down, this time without the black mist blocking it, and the illusory blue beetle was pulled out by the power of the dead, and then slashed in two.
The blue light in the eyes of the blood wolf was extinguished instantly, and the soulless corpse continued to run forward for a few meters, and then knelt on its front legs, and the huge wolf corpse rolled and slid out of the ground for several meters, plowing a shallow ravine, and finally stopped in front of Aldrich.
Looking at the motionless corpse on the ground, Aldrich was a little afraid to look at his eyes, and stepped forward and stabbed the blood wolf's head with a sword, picking out the soul eater beetle inside, and found that there was also only one insect corpse left.
"What kind of witchcraft is this?"
Herb is also considered to be the strongest among the third-order apprentices, and there are also defensive demonic items, so he was killed so easily in front of Ron, doesn't this mean that he is the same for himself.
But Ron was obviously only a second-order apprentice, when would a second-order apprentice be able to continuously unleash such terrifying zero-order sorcery?
"It's not witchcraft, it's just two potions. Ron explained as he tossed two empty potion bottles on the ground.
If it had been before, Ron might have said that it was two expensive potions.
But now, two hundred magic crystals are only, and it is very cost-effective to change to a third-order apprentice.
Aldrich almost blurted out how many magic crystals there were, and when the words came to his lips, they finally turned into an embarrassing word of concern.
"Save a little bit, there should be a lot of hunters in the back. ”
Ron smiled and didn't continue to explain, but took out a bottle of concentrating potion and handed it over, he had already noticed Aldrich's predicament just now, obviously this was a poor fellow who didn't even have a restorative potion.
What will happen next will be an uphill battle, and although Ron is very sure that he will crush his opponent directly with potions, the more help the better.
Aldrich was not pretentious, he took it directly, a concentrating potion could restore the magic of a poisonous gaze, since he already owed a life, he didn't mind owing more, it was better than the two of them dying together at the hands of the hunters.
"Why don't you run away?" Aldrich sat directly on the ground to regain his strength, "The soul imprint is on me, and under the cover of the fog lock, as long as you want to leave, they will not be able to find you." ”
"Can't go. Ron shook his head, after being assigned to Lab Seventy-Seven from the mandatory combat mission, he knew that the Nightmare Tower was almost overwhelmed.
He and Roy were making potions in the lab, and they played a far greater role in this war than they were in direct combat, and since they were both sent out, it meant that the apprentices that the Nightmare Tower could fight were almost dead, and they were ready to fight to the death with the Soul House.
Otherwise, they won't be allowed to fight anyway.
The only good news is that the Soul House should have reached the final moment, otherwise the Nightmare Tower would definitely not continue this senseless sacrifice, although the apprentices can be recruited again, but the consequences of a large number of high-level apprentices will always be revealed, that is, the fault line of power and the reduction of future official wizards.
The Tower of Nightmare and the House of Souls are now like two gamblers who have already gambled red-eyed, and have put all their chips on the table just for this last game.
However, the gamble has now been carried out, and the outcome is no longer a simple victory or defeat.
Losing would be a losing spell, and winning would be just a pyrrhic victory.
Ron didn't know why the House of Souls started this war, or when it would end, but he knew that judging by the Nightmare Tower's determination in the war, he would only have a chance of surviving if the Nightmare Tower won the war.
All Ron can do is keep fighting until the Tower of Nightmares wins, or dies at the hands of the House of Souls.
Ron didn't say these words, and Aldrich didn't ask any more questions, but quietly waited for the hunters to arrive.
With Herb's precedent, there will certainly not be only one hunter who will come later.
"Maybe these two guys should be dealt with before the war starts. Aldrich's gaze fell on the two guys who were controlled by the hands of bones, intentionally or unintentionally.
The two dying fellows were silent, swallowing all their anger into their stomachs, they did not speak, not because they were afraid of Aldrich, nor because they were afraid of Ron, but because they were afraid of the whispering potion of the Holy Spirit in Ron's hand, they were afraid that Ron would be angry and directly purify them, so they could only pretend to be so weak that they could not speak.
In fact, as long as the parasitic Soul Eater Beetle is still there, they will not die even if their blood runs dry, unless their head is cut off, because that is where the Soul Eater Beetle is parasitized.
The mysterious connection between the Soul Eater Mother and her offspring made the Soul Eater Mother feel as if she had seen everything here, and with one angry command after another, all the hunters under its control were approaching here.
It believed, but Ron would definitely make the right choice after discovering that he was surrounded by more than a dozen third-order apprentices.
"How long will it take for them all to arrive?" Ron asked suddenly.
The hunter froze, his mouth open, not knowing how to answer.
When Ron took out the Holy Spirit whisper again and shook it, one of the hunters said in a confused voice, "Ten minutes to go." ”
"How many are there?"
"Eleven. As soon as the words fell, it regretted it a little, it was worried that Ron would be scared away, and if Ron ran away now, even the Soul Eater Mother might not be able to find him.
But it didn't dare to lie, fearing that Ron would use the Holy Spirit Whispering Potion directly on it if he found out that he had been deceived.
However, after seeing that Ron only nodded, without the slightest intention of running away, it became even more entangled.
Could it be that he really had the means to fight against eleven third-order apprentices at the same time?" thought to the Soul Eater Mother Worm, who was watching all this.
It quickly ruled out this possibility, even if it was the carrier it parasitized, it was impossible to deal with eleven third-order apprentices at the same time.
Thinking of this, the Soul Eater moved her body slightly, and began to think about the next wording, what kind of conditions should be used to persuade the human who dared to threaten it and release its little baby.
The Soul Eater tried not to think about the Whispering Elixir of the Holy Spirit, which frightened it and made it want to give up its hatred and beg the other party not to hurt it.
This undignified begging, hated by it!
Although its essence is just a smart beetle, since it was melted by Cisse, the way of thinking of the Soul Eater Mother has been washed by Cisai's soul, and it has unconsciously moved closer to Cisse, how can a formal wizard wag his tail and beg for mercy at the feet of an apprentice!
It prefers to crush its enemies with the power of thunder, and then listen to them wail at their feet.
