Chapter 151: Coming
Naturally, the one who delivered this fatal blow was one of the "Red Glove" triumvirate of the Church of the Night Goddess, Crestai "Sword of the Goddess" Cesima.
He was already in the vicinity when Kuhn was preparing for the "punctual disaster". Although Cullen found him, he didn't break it, so he was able to stab the witch's "vital point" with a "holy relic" by surprise.
As the white bone sword plunged into the tattoo on Rey's back, a large amount of dirty blood gushed out from the lines that looked like blooming flowers, far beyond the level of a normal person.
Seeing this scene, Sesima's face changed suddenly, and she didn't even have time to pull out her bone sword before she flew back, and tapped her teeth as she retreated, releasing the resentful spirit sealed in it.
On the other side, Captain Arsenov, who was incarnated as the "Silver Knight", came to Karen, Judy, and Kuhn in three or two steps, and knelt on one knee with his back to the witch, and the Sword of Dawn was inserted into the ground, protecting the three of them under his body.
As soon as he completed this action, the tide-like dark power flowing from the white bone sword collided violently with the blood-colored power in the pattern, and the aftermath of the violent impact swept in all directions from the center of the witch's back.
This aftermath is not as shocking as the previous "punctual natural disaster" on the scene, but its level is quite high.
Even after a distance, a distorted and tattered half-illusory translucent face appeared on each tooth, and Crestai Cesima was still shocked by the aftermath and fell to one knee with a muffled grunt, a line of bloody and tear-like liquid sliding down each of his facial features.
Karen and the others are not much better, although the physical impact is all blocked by the silver armored giant, but the impact brought by the high grid is not something that the "Guardian" can block!
Kuhn didn't need to mention it, his brain was hit like a giant hammer, and he just felt a "buzz" and passed out.
Karen's body was instantly illusory, turning into a hazy moonlight. But after the moonlight was shattered, it did not reassemble as quickly as before, but struggled, little by little, to piece together the image of Cullen.
Judy's long brown hair suddenly grew to three meters long, and each hair squirmed on its own, as if it had come to life. After a long time, she regained control of her abilities, and her suddenly long hair suddenly turned yellow and fell out freely.
"It's so scary, it's almost out of control." Judy said to Karen beside her, pale.
Cullen first checked Kuhn's condition and found that after Judy's previous treatment, he couldn't die for the time being, so he turned back and said, "Destroying a trace of divinity of the 'Primordial Moon', you should only have such an impact." ”
After that, he stopped talking and seized the time to regain his spirituality. In order to cope with the impact just now, his "moonlight" almost collapsed, and even if he was barely reorganized, he still suffered a lot of backlash.
At this time, Captain Arsenov also took off the "holy relic" - a huge silver-white armor, and his body shrank to two meters. He sat down on the ground, gasping for air, sweat crawling all over his cheeks. Obviously, this holy relic of the "Silver Knight" ability is still a very heavy burden on him.
For a moment, the noise of thunder and explosions was gone, the blood-colored moon was back to normal, and nothing but silence and darkness remained in the ruined vineyard.
A minute later, Sesima struggled to her feet with her left palm on the ground, deciding to reconfirm the result. Although he didn't think that the witch would survive such a collision.
Karen also opened his eyes and "flashed" next to Cecima.
However, as soon as they got close to where Rey had been standing, Cullen was the first to notice that something was wrong.
"The witch is not dead...... It's still slipping away under our noses! He said firmly.
"What?" Cesima was stunned for a moment, she hadn't seen the witch's wreckage before, and thought that she had no bones, but after careful inspection, she also nodded: "No extraordinary characteristics have been precipitated......"
"And I saw her snatch a 'Level 2' seal from Kuhn before, and it wasn't here." Cullen added.
After Sesima picked up her bone sword and put it back in the suitcase, she asked suspiciously: "That witch is very strange, she had the upper hand before, and she obviously had many opportunities to leave calmly, so there is no need to fight with the three 'holy relics', but she is like a reckless man who is showing off her strength, giving us so much time to prepare...... And now it is not dragging its feet in the slightest...... It's like two people. ”
"I suspect that the witch's plan has two purposes. First, the seal of the Church of the Storm......" Cullen said, crouching down and turning over the rubble on the ground with gloves on, as if looking for something.
"And the second purpose should be that she wants to borrow our hands to get rid of the flower on her back, to get rid of the control of the 'primordial moon'.
"From her previous performances in battle, it is not difficult to see that there is another will awakened in her body - maybe it is the flower. In short, that will seems to be subtly merging with her...... But the witch found out the clue.
So, she deliberately imagined a character who was arrogant in battle and liked to play with her opponent, but in fact she was deceiving that will, or rather deceiving herself.
"She's playing this like a game while giving us opportunities to attack her.
"I guess if she had done it herself, Captain Kuhn might not have been able to wait for our rescue...... She just wants us all together to help her destroy the flower!
"And in this process, the witch can't reveal that meaning, and she can't show it too obviously, otherwise she won't be able to 'deceive' herself! And I didn't let Judy say it before, because I was afraid that she would hear the 'truth' and it would be difficult for her to deceive herself. ”
At this, Cullen suddenly paused, as he found some traces of blood on a stone. It wasn't the blood that the flower spewed out, it had been completely destroyed by the white bone sword. It's the blood that flowed out of the witch's injuries when she was bombarded by thunder...... Her own blood.
"I see...... From this point of view, after she was attacked by the thunder, she had actually been aware of the intention by that will, otherwise she would not have shown two completely different looks on her face at the same time! Cesima nodded abruptly, the moment he stabbed the witch in the back with his bone sword, he caught a glimpse of the expression on her face, which was a little strange at the time, but now he completely understood.
"But even if she has a back hand, she will definitely not be able to stand it under the impact of divinity, and she will definitely be extremely seriously injured." Cullen dipped his fingers in the blood, then put it in his mouth and sucked it, and soon, his eyes looked to the south and continued, "Found her trace." ”
He stood up and said to Judy not far away, "It's not safe here, you take the captain and Kuhn to the nearby manor for help as soon as possible." ”
After saying that, Karen looked at Sesima beside him again and asked, "Your Excellency Sesima, can you still move?" ”
Sesima smiled bitterly: "I can only barely protect myself." ”
"Why don't you take care of Judy and them for me...... I'm going to chase the witch. Cullen smiled.
Cesima knew that the other party was giving herself a step, and nodded her head in response.
On the other side, Judy had already picked up the "punctual scourge" and the gold-framed mirror used by Robert from the ground next to him, and then summoned the Golem to carry Kuhn, and slowly walked towards a villa of the viscount's family with Captain Arsenov, who had barely recovered some strength.
……
After everyone left for a while. A petite figure appeared in the vineyard, and she also came to the rubble, turned out a bloody stone, and then the black flame rose, enveloping the blood on the stone.
……
Rey, the witch who was running rapidly in the night, suddenly screamed and fell to the ground.
She struggled to her feet and muttered, "Blood curse...... Lina? ”
After saying that, she found that she had no strength left to continue running, and she needed the taste of "pain" to make up for it......
So I looked around.
Soon, a manor house where a banquet was being held came into her view.
