Chapter 670: Wolf Girl...... Death?
It all happened too quickly and too suddenly, at least for Selman, who had been "playing dead" on the ground near Chelus and Tafel. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
The previous blow from Tafel was both sudden and powerful, and it was obviously just a fusion of the wind element, but it exerted a solid hardness that only the earth element could have. However, although that blow did catch Selman off guard, knocking him out at once and suffering some internal injuries as a result, it did not make the dignified seventh-order high-level Red Dragon Patriarch lose his combat power.
However, Selman did not immediately get up and fight with Tafel, so many years of experience and combat experience made it clear to him from this blow that this opponent would probably not be able to defeat even the current Cheruth and himself. Its terrifying level can be compared to the nascent Chaos Monster that he and Cheruth faced in the Holy City Incident three years ago, no, maybe even more terrifying than that Chaos Monster, and even that Chaos Monster, if it wasn't for the help of those Nolan souls at that time, he and Cheruth wouldn't be able to deal with it at all.
In the face of this sudden appearance of the old man, the only thing they could do was to evacuate and escape as best they could. Selman, who made such a judgment, secretly used the faint magic fluctuations unique to the dragon clan companions who seemed to want to get close to him, and asked them to join the white elves and quickly evacuate the place far away with the wounded and the few friends who seemed to be reluctant to leave, while he himself was nervously watching the situation on Cheruth's side, looking for a suitable opportunity. He knew he wouldn't be able to win against the old man named Tafel, but at least he had a momentary chance to escape for Cerus, and Selman felt that he could still do it.
To his surprise, Chelus was chatting with the old man, and it seemed that the old man's interest was quite high, which surprised Selman. It's not that he thought that the old man would just turn into a war with them like this, but there was no doubt that the conversation with Cheruth would be a great distraction from the old man, although it was a little far away from the two, and the two of them were not talking too loudly, so Selman couldn't hear what they were saying and didn't know how Cheruth did it, but he could immediately figure out that this should be the ghost elf Cheruth trying to find a way to delay time in this way.
Due to the limited information he had, Selman would not have thought that Cillus was waiting for the support of the Agents, he only regarded Cillus's delay as if she was buying time for their partners to evacuate, and while touched, Selman also put away the idea of recklessly rushing out to attack Tafel, even if he tried his best, he was not sure that he could hold back Tafel's pace before his own partners completely evacuated, and now Ceroth finally found a place where he could be more "safe" As a way to delay time, he just had to wait quietly for the time to start the war to come to her aid.
Although there were all kinds of misunderstandings, after all, Selman's idea was still good, but unfortunately, neither he nor Cheruth expected that Tafel was just playing tricks on them from the beginning.
In Telman's eyes, it was completely without warning, and the battle between Cherus and Tafel broke out...... No, it wasn't a battle at all, it was just a simple kill.
The wolf girl suddenly released all her strength and threw a super powerful magic at Tafel that even Thelman was not confident that even Thelman could take head-on, and the next moment, Tafel was like a ghost, straight out of the bursting thunderstorm, and after turning around to remind everyone to evacuate while trying to escape, a withered old arm like a dead branch poked out from behind Cheruth, who pierced through the wolf girl's chest from behind.
What's even more bizarre is that although it seems that Tafel's arm seems to have pierced Cheruth's body, whether it is on the wolf girl's back or on the "wound" on her chest, there is no expected blood coming out at all, but from the edge of the wound, a very pure silver-white law light and wisps of cloudy gray-black chaotic fog are faintly visible.
It happened so fast that even Thelman couldn't even react, and seeing Cheruth being pierced through his chest by the old man in a strange way right in front of his eyes, Telseman's mind was almost instantly covered with rage.
"Hahaha......"
"Roar-!!"
In an instant, Tafel's excited laughter mingled with Thelman's angry roar.
Jumping up from the ground, a majestic dragon shadow composed of burning flame fighting qi instantly appeared around Selman, and Selman, whose eyes turned into golden red pupils, opened his mouth and spewed out a red dragon breath containing anger towards Tafel, and after maintaining a forward posture, he directly swung his fist, linking the fighting spirit fire dragon behind him to punch in the direction of Tafel.
However, Tafel's laughter was not cut off by the double attack of the monster that had been gathering strength for a long time, but seemed to laugh even more heartily.
Raising his other hand, an extremely cold aura emanated from the palm of his hand, and in an instant, it was exactly the same as Selman's flame breath form, but its content was a crystal frost magic jet out. Unlike the icy breath of the Frost Dragon, a branch of the Blue Dragon Clan of the Dragon Clan, these frost breaths did not have the fixed shape of ordinary Ice and Snow Frost Flowers, but were constantly changing their form like burning flames. What's even more bizarre is that, just as the fuel burns and releases a large amount of light and heat, these "burning" frosts actually release breath fluctuations that are even colder than they are.
Frost and fire clashed together, and a turbulence of magic from the collision of loud noises and magic filled all nearby spaces.
At the same time, from Tafel's palm, the source of magic that released the "Frost Flame" began to change, from ice blue to a somewhat purple blazing white, and then, countless currents flowed out from the source of Tafel's palm, but it was not as violent as ordinary thunder and lightning magic, but flowed incomparably docilely towards the center of the conflict between ice and fire like a stream.
As a result, Selman, who was about to punch Taffel's hateful old face, was pulled and stopped by a huge force only one step away from Tafel, he turned his head and was shocked to see countless purple-white "vines" emerging from the surrounding ground, wrapping around him.
No, it's not a "vine", it's clearly a stream of electricity, but ...... This is ridiculous, even if it is some kind of magic, but the most basic nature and form of thunder and lightning will not be modified to such an extent, the condensation of thunder and lightning magic elements, not only has a vine-like entity but also has a tenacity that is flexible to the point of absurdity, and even these lightning currents that are in contact with the ground will not be channeled into the ground and disappear on their own...... But if he was wrong, judging from the fluctuations of the magic energy attributes that emanated, these were clearly "currents" in the literal sense of the word.
Zilala-la-la-!
What happened next also confirmed Selman's thoughts, from these magical currents, which were completely different from normal currents, immediately burst out with amazing electric shock power after entangling him in a vine-like way, Selman only felt a sharp pain in his body, and the roar leaked out of his mouth uncontrollably, but it was still drowned out by the harsh sound of the electric burst.
The head was a mess, the pain and paralysis made Selman almost unable to think, and thanks to the magic resistance brought by the powerful flesh and body of the Red Dragon Clan, Selman did not immediately lose his mind because of Selman's magic, but instinctively released all the fighting power contained in his body.
The surging flames broke through the electric currents that were clinging to Thelman like vines, but then, the scattered currents converged in front of him again and turned into a fist the size of a leather ball, which smashed into Selman's stomach and then exploded suddenly, and Selman didn't even snort before he was blown away by this blow.
The process is so complicated, but in fact, the process from Selman's attack on Tafel to being knocked out by Tafel in a few rounds is only a dozen seconds.
Although Thelman's attack did not hurt Tafel, it did give Tafel a slight sense of urgency in her heart. Although according to his calculations, it would be a few minutes before Nien and York could get rid of the trap he specially designed and detect the anomalies on their side, but after all, it was about the entire alien law relics of the Nolan clan that he dreamed of, even if he had secretly planned so many big conspiracies, he still had a feeling that he couldn't feel at ease for a moment if the treasure was not really in his hands for a moment.
Because of this, after shooting Selman away, Tafel did not enjoy the fun of playing with his prey as before, but directly liberated his ability as a deterioration, and began to confuse his existence into the boundary between order and chaos.
What he had to do was the same as what Fallen Wissinger had done three years ago, in order to gain the ability to compete with the Origin Law System and the agents who were its spokesmen, he wanted to use these xenolaws that were incompatible with the Source Law System to construct an independent and powerful Xenomorph Law System within his body.
However, compared to the depraved Wissinger, Tafel's status and abilities as a spoiler give him an advantage, and now he has completely "spoiled" Since then, Tafel himself has become the most suitable being to construct a xenomorph law system to maintain a delicate balance between chaos and order, so he does not need to go to great lengths to plan a great sacrifice like the Fallen Wissinger three years ago, as long as he can obtain a sufficient number of xenomorph laws, he will naturally be able to use the ability of the speravert to build a xenomorph law system that can compete with the origin law system.
With the excitement that even he couldn't fully suppress, Tafel pierced through Cheruth's chest and got up, and from the back of the wolf girl who hung in mid-air like a rag doll after he pierced her chest, only her hands and feet occasionally twitched once or twice, Tafel slowly pulled her withered arm out.
An amazing scene happened, not only did the wound on the wolf girl's chest not see the expected blurred flesh and blood, but only a white and gray colored area, and even Tafel's hand that was pulled out of Cheruth's body was not the poor wolf girl's flesh and blood, but a gray and white body unknown looking very strange substance.
After seeing this mass of substance, Tafel could not suppress the excitement and joy in his heart again, and opened his mouth and let out a hoarse and ugly laugh.
Tafel was really happy, he was originally just worried that his group of stupid subordinates would completely mess up the layout of the Eastern Continent and lose the two xenomorph law godheads that he had managed to find, but he unexpectedly bumped into the Nolan xenomorph law treasure trove that he dreamed of here!
"Haha...... Hahaha...... Surrogate, the will of the world, haha, if your so-called fate was really as objective as you say, would you ever be able to deduce today? You have exiled me for three years, leaving me completely forgotten by the system of the Origin Law in the gap between dimensions, have you ever thought that it will also make me completely forget the Origin Law and find the path I should really take...... But now you see, I don't need to look for it painstakingly, but an accident has allowed me to reclaim the weapon that I should have gotten from that old antique at Wissinger three years ago, and which you feared the most!"
Talking to himself without knowing who he wanted to say, Tafel grabbed the gray substance and opened it suddenly, and saw that the gray and white wonderful substance suddenly began to seep into Tafel's palm, and at the same time, more gray and white matter began to emerge from the large hole behind Cheruth that had been pierced by Tafel.
The Origin Law Seal in Cheruth's body was broken by Tafel's use of the Chaos Power of the Morphers, and at this moment, what Tafel pulled out of her body was the Nolan Xenomorph Law that was sealed in it by Nien and York three years ago at her request.
But even so, at this moment, Cheruth did not struggle at all...... No, she simply couldn't struggle anymore.
Tafel's previous attack from behind seemed to pierce her through the chest, but in fact it was not an orthodox physical attack at all. Tafel used the Morpher's ability to confuse the chaos of order to disrupt the law of order contained in his own attack and even modified it himself, turning that blow into a powerful attack specifically aimed at Cheruth's soul, or more precisely against the seal of the Origin Law hidden in the depths of Cheruth's soul.
As a result, under the powerful power of Tafel and the unique chaos infection of the metamorphoses, the origin seal that Nien and York set up on Chelus's body three years ago to seal the law of Nolan's xenomorphs was forcibly broken. And due to the shattering of this Origin Law seal, which has been merged with the soul of Cheruth to some extent, the wolf girl's soul has also been greatly shocked and severely damaged.
It's like a complete piece of jade, because a small piece of the edge corner is broken, and the broken lines suddenly spread to the entire jade body. Because of the shattering of the Origin Law Seal, Cheruth's soul was originally in a very dangerous state, but at this juncture, Tafel directly began to extract the huge amount of xenomorph law power sealed in it from the broken Origin Law seal without mercy.
The result can be imagined, due to Tafel's rough act of extracting the power of the law of xenos, the soul of the wolf girl, who was already on the verge of shattering, was hit by both internal and external shocks, and it only lasted for a short time, and it was completely shattered like a real broken jade...... For a normal soul, this is no different from physical death.
The body is destroyed or lifeless, and the soul may at least be able to exist around the body for a while if it is strong enough, but when the soul is scattered in a broken form, the self-consciousness of the living soul will disappear with it, and the original body of the soul, although it will not be destroyed, has become an empty shell without any self-awareness.
Cheruth, or the self-consciousness that marks the existence of Cheruth as an individual, at this moment, ushered in the literal "soul scattered" because of Tafel's act of breaking the seal of the Law of Origin and withdrawing the law of aliens.
Therefore, the wolf girl at this moment, in fact, has become a doll with no autonomous consciousness as it seems, allowing Tafel to extract all the alien laws that Nien and York sealed in her body three years ago. And Tafel also knew very well what what what he did meant to the wolf girl, as the last trace of the power of the xenomorph law was withdrawn from the wolf girl's body by Tafel, Tafel put down his hand, looking up and reveling in the majestic xenomorph law power in his body, although it had not yet had time to be completely "digested", but had already begun the process of building the xenomorph law system, and in front of him, the empty body of the wolf girl that had lost its content was like a dilapidated large rag doll, and her face fell to the ground lifelessly.
If the wolf maiden's friends, Sekaria, Grey Wind and Nanoha, were still here, it would undoubtedly be a heartbreaking scene for them, but fortunately, both Grey Wind and Nanoha were in a coma due to the previous battle, and Sekaria, when Tafel first appeared, was taken away by the dragons who were instructed by Selman to take her away along with Grey Wind in her arms.
It was too lucky for them not to see this, and perhaps in another sense, too unfortunate.
Just a second before the wolf girl's body was about to fall to the ground unprotected, two silver lights flashed, and two figures appeared where Cheruth was about to fall, and the taller one reached out to catch her at the right time.
"Cheruth!!"
Beside York, who was holding Chelus's body with both hands, Nien looked at the wolf girl sleeping quietly in York's armhole with a bloodless face, as if she couldn't believe all this.
York, on the other hand, after looking down at the wolf girl in the armhole, withdrew his gaze as if he couldn't bear it, and looked up at Tafel in mid-air.
“...... Tarfel, you're finally ...... Still crossed that line. ”
Tafel smiled gloomily with a little excitement and madness, looking at York and Nien on the ground.
"No, I've finally crossed the line...... Hahaha, long time no see, Substitutes. ”
"You, you bastard!"
It was Nien who replied, the silver-haired girl was furious because of what happened to Cheruth, looking at Tafel in the sky, Nien only felt that the anger in her mind was no longer limited by reason for a moment, and directly raised her hand to grab it, and "grabbed" a colorful spear-like strip from the void, which exuded the purest power of the law of origin order so that Tafel's pupils shrank for a moment, revealing an obvious look of jealousy.
But in the next second, the jealousy in Tafel's eyes turned into excitement, and a hazy halo of grayish white emanated from his body, and at the very edge of the halo, these shimmers began to turn into clusters of gray cloudy substance. As Nien hurled the multicolored spear in her hand at him, Tafel reached in front of her a little and turned the gray cloudiness into a thick shield that wasn't too big but just stood in the way of the spear.
The colorful spear came into contact with the gray shield, there was no metallic crisp sound, and there was no typical explosion and roar when energy bodies collided, and the colorful light on the spear suddenly shot out silently, but it was not able to illuminate the field where Tafel was behind the gray shield.
But despite resisting Nion's attack, Tafel seemed to feel something, not only did he not show a happy expression but frowned, and suddenly the whole person turned into a gray fog and swept aside, and the next moment, the space where Tafel was originally located suddenly twisted strangely, as if a piece of paper had been scratched and crumpled, squeezed violently from all sides to the center.
Soon, the space returned to its original state once again as if nothing had happened, but Tafel, who had turned into a gray fog and dodged away, knew very well that if he hadn't been alert just now, I am afraid that he would have been completely squeezed into pieces because of this sudden dimensional space squeeze.
Sure enough, the power of the agent who holds the authority of the Origin Law System is really impossible to measure with common sense.
"Hahaha," Tafel, who turned into a gray mist, did not return to his original state but still maintained this form, and his voice came directly from the center of the gray mist, "Sure enough, he is worthy of being a substitute, but the days when you and the world laws behind you are rampant will not last long! When I completely complete the construction of the xenomorph law system, the next time we meet, I, Tafel, will definitely destroy your so-called origin law system! This world will return to true freedom!"
In response to him, Nien once again threw a few spears of colorful order, but unfortunately, Tafel's movements were obviously fast enough, just before the spear of light pierced into the gray mist, Tafel had somehow left the battlefield, and the light of the colorful order exploded, just purifying and eliminating some of the innocuous chaos he left behind, but there was no trace of Tafel himself.
Tafel fled, taking with him the Nolan Xenomorph Law that he had snatched from Cheruth, as he himself said, the next time, when he completely integrated all the Xenomorph Laws into himself and was able to fully exert the power of the Xenomorph Law System, the power he possessed would truly be comparable to that of the agent of the Origin Law System.
Nien looked at the place where Tafel disappeared with empty eyes, and was stunned for more than ten seconds, and then the silver-haired girl turned her head and looked at the lifeless wolf girl in York's arm again, and couldn't help but cry.
“...... Whining...... It's all our fault...... If, if we hadn't been tricked by that cunning guy into going to the Duchy of Skagen to be trapped, woo woo woo ......"
Choked up, Nien burst into tears, but at that moment, York raised his hand and gently stroked the end of Nien's hair.
Nien originally thought that York was comforting herself, but when she looked up, she was a little surprised and stunned.
Although the expression with sunglasses is not very obvious, Nien, who has been with York for such a long time, can still see that York's mood does not seem to be so bad, but seems to be a little surprised.
What's wrong with Uncle? Cheruth is obviously ...... Uh, huh?!
"Don't be discouraged so early, Nien, it's far from over...... Unlike thousands of years ago, although Tafel is dangerous, after all, the chaos he represents this time has only just emerged from the continent, as long as the guardians among the agents return to their positions in time, with the strength of our three agents, we will definitely be able to protect this world. ”
"That, that's it, uncle, you mean Cheruth she......"
Seeing what Nien wanted to ask, York patted the top of Nien's hair, which was still in tears, and then looked up at the sky, his eyes were deep, as if he wanted to see farther and farther through the canopy.
“...... To be honest, I don't know very well, but I can sense that the fate line of the law of Cheruth in this world has been ...... since just now Interrupted. ”
Nien's eyes widened, and to others it might sound like saying that Cheruth was dead, but Nien knew the difference.
Death is also a kind of fate ending, the fate line of the dead will usher in the "end", but it will definitely not be abruptly "interrupted".
Cheruth her, do you say......
