Chapter Seventy-Three: The Mystery Doppelganger
There was a thud, and it was the sound of Lena Paul's big piece being cut. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
As soon as the silver light arrived, the lady already felt the danger, and she didn't care about the loading of the bullets, regardless of whether the action was good or not, her body leaned forward suddenly, bent forward and rolled, narrowly avoided it, and didn't even dare to stop, still rolling, trying to stay away from the original position, at this time, Vic Paul had already rushed over, and the blade of the sword in his hand slashed at the figure that suddenly appeared behind his wife, forcing it to retreat.
However, when Lena Paul stood up on her knees, the lady felt a pain in her back, and a warm liquid flowed out, apparently still not completely dodging the sudden attack of the silver light.
"Tsk, what a pity......"
The figure forced back by Vic Paul had a tap at his feet, widening the distance between the two of them, and standing firmly somewhere in the square, but again a mysterious man in a cloak.
And, judging by its appearance, it looks exactly like the enemy who had just been beheaded by Vic Paul himself?
What's going on?
Paul and his wife looked at the man in disbelief, and Vic Paul was even more vigilant, staying by Lena Paul's side, as if he was afraid that his wife would be attacked again by an inexplicable sneak attack.
In this regard, she just snorted lightly, raised her right hand, glanced at the blood-stained knife in her hand, as if checking something, and then looked at the two in the distance again.
"Humph......"
Then, with a strange smile at the Pauls, she brought the knife in her hand to her lips, stuck out her tongue and licked it, as if tasting the blood of her enemies.
However, this simple act that was originally just a bad taste of this guy ended up making her stunned.
Because, the taste of blood on the blade is really as rich and mellow as fine wine!
"Huh?"
She glanced down at the knife again, brought it to her nose and sniffed it carefully, and found that it was not her delusion, because the breath that penetrated into her nose was still unusually mellow and charming!
Is it toxic?
That was the first thought she had ever thought about, but she thought it might be a bit ridiculous.
You know, that Lena Paul is a living human being, how can her blood be poisonous? Even in this magical world, it is impossible to have such a terrible constitution, right?
Or is it that the big piece on her body is coated with poison, and the other party actually takes precautions to this extent?
She was a little suspicious, and began to look at the faces of the Pauls.
However, the two Pauls still looked at her vigilantly, and did not look forward to the strange expression of her poisoning and falling, obviously unaware, and did not even express their disgust at her bad taste for tasting blood!
Tasting blood?
Her heart moved, and an idea came to her mind, but it made her feel a little calmer.
Perhaps, this is the reason for her blood puppet body?
If someone told her that vampires had different taste buds for blood, she wouldn't find it any wonderful!
"How is this possible?!You've been ......?"
Lena Paul looked at the mysterious enemy who had suddenly stopped moving, and her tone was also full of confusion about her hesitation, and her tone was inexplicably shocked. However, when the lady turned her head and saw the decapitated creature in the distance suddenly stand up again, and even go to the fallen head, pick it up and put it back on her neck, and the two merged together like liquid, the lady's voice of surprise came to an abrupt end.
"Puppet?"
Vic Paul seemed to understand what was happening, because he didn't notice any blood coming out of the moment he cut off the other man's head, so he was surprised at the time. It was because of this that he looked back and saw that Lena Paul was in danger of being attacked and alerted his wife.
"Golem, huh, are you referring to this?"
She repeated the other man's words, snorted, and put the smell of blood aside for a moment, her left hand raised, and her index finger into the air a little.
I saw that an almost transparent gelatinous liquid condensed from her fingertips, and soon, a human form of similar size to herself was formed, and the whole thing gradually became solidified, and even the color of the surface became exactly the same as the clothes on her body!
Eventually, the figure moved, took a step forward, and moved closer to her.
"This isn't a puppet, it's my doppelganger!"
She smiled at Mr. and Mrs. Paul, and reached out with her left hand and gently pinched the face of the humanoid object, explaining to them as such.
"Oops, it hurts!"
The strange thing is that the existence she called the 'doppelganger', after being pinched by her hand, actually spoke like a real person, it touched the pinched place with its hand, and protested to her, and the voice was actually the same tone as herself.
“......”
Mr. and Mrs. Paul looked at the strange scene in front of them speechlessly, and they couldn't believe their eyes.
In this magical world, although there is no shortage of doppelganger magic or mirror magic, they are all things with relatively wooden expressions, and compared with the strange abilities of the person in front of them, they are not enough to see at all!
However, she didn't explain her secret to these two people in detail, and the reason why she showed how to create a clone out of thin air in front of the Pauls and his wife, and even showed their almost real nature, was because she didn't need to continue to hide it at all!
Because, next, she is going to do it for real---
"Just now it was one against two, now it's three against two, are you ready?"
This sentence was uttered by her three bodies in turn, and they separated from each other, enclosing Paul and his wife in the middle, and treating them as they were.
Ever since she met a black cat, she had found that this way of speaking seemed to be easy to cause her target to be uneasy, and for her, who was good at learning and imitating, she was naturally happy to apply this playful method.
Sure enough, with her words, Vic Paul and Lena Paul's expressions became more solemn, leaning back to each other, always vigilant of her standing...... Three directions.
Even Mrs. Paul did not even continue the unfinished reloading, and with a click, chose to return the gun to a fighting state, apparently not wanting to give her any opportunity to attack.
Oh, two revolvers with a total of twelve rounds of six magazines, eleven shots were fired before, and there was one bullet left, and four were hastily reloaded during the process, and the ammunition count is now three rounds for the left hand and two rounds for the right hand?
Naturally, she was able to notice Lena Paul's small movements, not to mention, she was now observing the couple from three directions at the same time, so she was naturally able to know everything about it, and she couldn't help but mutter a sentence in her heart, silently remembering this important detail in her heart.
Well, it seems that a firearm or something, as expected, is still something outside the body, and it is not really strong!
In battles where the strength is not far apart, their ammunition replacement is a big problem, and even her original world with developed gun technology has such and such limitations, presumably, the guns in this other world are even more deficient!
As for Mrs. Paul's evaluation, the conclusion that the little girl Alex said is "no less than a difficult opponent at the gold level", now it seems that it is going to be discounted, more precisely, it should be "a difficult opponent no less than the gold level before the bullets are used up and need to be reloaded"!
She squinted her eyes and stared at the two people who were surrounded by her, as if she wanted to find some flaw in a one-hit kill, controlling three bodies to circle around the two at the same time. As a result of this analysis, her curiosity about the world's firearms suddenly diminished, and she didn't plan to buy them very much.
In this regard, Vic Paul's eyes were only fixed in the direction of her main body, but he was afraid of the two clones of this mysterious enemy, and did not dare to attack wantonly.
Although the wound on Paul's back was not a big deal, he knew that once he attacked the body of this mysterious enemy, his wife's situation would become extremely dangerous! After all, the two doppelgangers did not seem to be afraid of the power of firearms like humans, and seemed to be able to resist bullets at all, so he did not dare to leave his wife easily.
"Vic!"
Suddenly, Lena Paul's elbow seemed to touch him inadvertently, and she whispered his name.
However, Vic Paul didn't say anything, just nodded, and the tacit understanding between him and his wife made him understand the current situation, but on the surface he was still silent.
This tacit understanding, if it is explained in words, Lena Paul is just telling her husband, trying to dispel his concerns: Don't worry about my safety, you can attack as much as you want!
So, the moment his wife reminded him, Vic Paul understood the meaning of this clever companion's words, because she had a flexible reflex when the bullet hit the mysterious enemy's head before, so she had replaced the ordinary bullet with an expensive but powerful demonic alchemy bullet!
In this way, Vic Paul only needs to find the right opportunity and fight back to break the current deadlock.
Oh? It's ......
Although she didn't know what was going on, she had a strong sense of battle, and she intuitively sensed that something seemed to have changed between the two, and she was secretly vigilant in her heart.
You know, although it was just the experience of the doppelganger, the part of the feeling of being beheaded just now was something that really happened to her!
In fact, when she fought with a certain Deputy Elder Erwin in the Mundra Valley earlier, she had discovered that although her bloodline was invincible in the face of many situations, and it seemed to have a sense of invincibility, but when she faced the white light arrow feather shot by Deputy Elder Erwyn that time, it was swept away by a mysterious force and did not work at all.
And this time, the gel clone, who obviously couldn't even help bullets, was actually easily cut off his neck by this guy with a golden light on the blade!
Obviously, for this mysterious power that can emit light, her bloodline can't resist it at all.
If she rashly attacks and is accidentally cut by the other party, she doesn't have the ability to pick up her head and put it back in her body!
At this moment, in the direction of the castle in the distance, there was a faint noise, as if it was alarmed by the gunfire of the previous battle between the two sides, and many people were rushing in the direction of this square. Moreover, the hurried footsteps of the patrolling guards seemed to be heard from all directions......
