Chapter 40: Endgame
"Number 86 is dead...... How did things come to this point?...... Semar's frozen body couldn't move any more step forward, and he kept calling out to No. 86 and Mott in his heart, hoping to hear even a hint of answer, but all that was left for him was a long silence, and the figure leaning against the window, never to come back to life.
The room in the distance seemed to be an armory room, and the armor and weapons that had been knocked over from the fierce battle were intertwined with the corpses of the inspector and his men, scattered haphazardly on the ground. At this time, the guy who had kidnapped Selena was cowering in the corner, covering his figure with the body of the hostess, and the fear of facing the demon seemed to make his palm holding the dagger tremble slightly. "Don't, don't come here!" he suddenly screamed, one arm around Selena's neck, and pointed a dagger at the demon, "You said it! Whoever gives you her head will live!"
Harleye kindly stopped, looking at Selena not far away. "Yes, I did......" it slowly raised its palm, "give me her head, and you'll be alive ......"
The demon's words were quickly interrupted. "No! I'm going to get out of this damn place now!!" he exclaimed, "as long as I leave alive, she's yours!
"Oh, don't you believe my promise?...... "The demon said with a smile, his bone-bladed tail slicing through the air, "this is not a friendly start...... I thought we could come to some kind of consensus......"
"Shut up! are you fucking fools?!" the inspector's men roared, strangling Selena's neck, and Selena's face turned pale, and whether it was anger or fear, the slender hand that clenched the sword tightened tighter and tighter. "Get me out of here at once, or I promise you will never get this woman!"
"Hahaha......" the demon grinned, his face full of disdain and hideousness, "Are you threatening me?" its voice turned cold, "What if I kill you together?" Stupid human!" said it, leaving the inspector's men behind and walking towards the corpse of Number 86, as if the other party was nothing more than a worm in his hand. Life and death are all just a thought.
Harleye stopped in front of No. 86, his bright yellow eyes revealing false sadness. "My husband, are you dead like that?...... It's so sad for me, I mean, I didn't kill you with my own hands...... Giggle......" the demon said. used the bone knife on his tail to provoke the head of No. 86, but at this moment, the facial features that came into view made Harleye's pupils shrink suddenly, this corpse was not No. 86 at all!
"This is?!" the demon was furious, and immediately turned to look at the location of the inspector's men, but Selena, who was still stuck in the neck a moment ago, and No. 86, who was covered in blood and disguised as the inspector's men, had already rushed in front of it!
"Die, demon!" the thin sword in Selena's hand pierced the demon's chest without hindrance. With a furious howl. As soon as Harleye wanted to fight back, No. 86 next to him had already slashed the long sword hidden behind him into its neck! Almost instinctively, Harleyer subconsciously dodged backwards, but the narrow blade still left a deep bloody wound on his neck.
"Damn ......it," No. 86 cursed, according to his and Selena's plan, even if he couldn't kill him, it would be enough to severely damage the other party, but Harleye's alertness was obviously far beyond their expectations. In fact, when 86 and Mott escaped from her bedroom with Selena, they ran directly to the armory room deep on the second floor, where it was. They were able to get decent weapons, and even after killing the Inspector and his men, they were able to return fully armed and help Semar slay the Bloody Demon.
But number 86 didn't expect it anyway. The armory room in this lady's mouth is not a symbolic talk at all. In this extraordinarily spacious room, countless well-maintained weapons are neatly stacked here, from long swords and short swords, daggers and axes, to bayonets, halberds, flails and clubs, and even standard longbows and crossbows. Not to mention a full box of armor armor and so on...... In short, the stock here is more than enough to supply the daily defense of the manor, even to equip a small army of a hundred men at once.
As for why Selena's mansion kept such a large number of weapons, or what she was guarding against, No. 86 and Skull had no intention of asking in detail, and there were some things that it was better not to delve into. Of course, the reason why No. 86 came to the armory room with him was that he still had his own plans in his heart, but even so, he and Mott found some unexpected surprises in this exaggerated "arsenal".
What happened after that was not too much of a surprise, thanks to the sheer of Byserena's strong personal prowess, the mistress of the manor, instead of being a nuisance, helped No. 86 to take out the inspector and his men very quickly, and the blood on No. 86's body was actually left behind by his opponents.
But at the same time, the sound of explosions on the first and second floors of the mansion at the same time instantly pushed their situation to a dead end, through the floor-to-ceiling windows of the armory room, No. 86 saw the smoke and dust billowing at the main entrance of the first floor, and the faint fire light from the direction of the bedroom on the second floor. No matter what happened, 86 and Mott had already prepared for the worst - the barbarians Pollus were killed in battle, and Semar was killed in battle, so 86 disguised himself as a subordinate and pretended to kidnap Selena and take the opportunity to attack Harleye.
Of course, when 86 and Selena see the demon breaking through the wall, they only hope that the corpse leaning against the windowsill will attract the attention of the Bloody Bone Demon. And in the midst of the worsening situation, No. 86 still reaped a rare glimmer of joy - although Semar appeared to be badly injured on the floor, at least he was still alive.
Thick black blood gushed out from the wound on his neck, Harleye's jaw opened and closed with a furious roar, his face long gone with a teasing look, and his bright yellow eyes full of resentment stared at 86 and Selena. "I don't know whether to live or die!" he said, his suddenly outstretched arms suddenly swept away, and several straight black lights instantly exploded in the air.
"Get out of the way!" shouted 86, pushing Selena straight to the side, while he held his sword horizontally to his chest. The ensuing sound of metal crashing erupted in the room, accompanied by a series of steel flowers that exploded on the blade, and No. 86 was pushed directly out by the black light. Even though he was wearing a piece of chain mail that he had found, the shattered black light still cut a bloody hole on his body!
"Is this your plan?!Is this how you want to kill me?!" The demon's chest was covered in black blood, the bone spurs behind it were swinging wildly, and Selena's rapier was still in his chest before it was drawn. "Unfortunately, this is the end of your life!" Harleye roared, slamming his hands directly to the floor.
The next moment, several high-speed spinning cyclones suddenly pierced the floor in front of them. The corpses, carpets, weapon racks, everything that blocked the progress of the blade were ripped to pieces, and the roar in his ears became louder and louder like the death knell of death, and with almost no consideration, Number 86 could guess what a tragic fate would be if he was hit.
It's too late to dodge, and even judging from the range covered by the air blade, there is nowhere to hide. Gritting his teeth, he quickly took a few steps back, and No. 86 simply dragged a heavy shield more than half a person tall and stood in front of him. Quickly hid his body in the back. In an instant, a huge bombardment sound poured into 86's eardrums, as if a plank was being used to resist the storm overhead, and 86's whole body trembled, and the shoulders of the shield seemed to be about to be shattered.
Moments later, in front of 86, there was a half-room-sized fan-shaped area in shambles, barely intact. Countless pieces of wood, corpses, blood, and even broken weapons rained down, and the shield was shattered. Successfully withstood the demon's attack!
"Ahhh At the same time, the demonic attack arrived. The slender bone tail drew directly to the shield with a strong wind, smashing it with a thud, but the long sword of number 86 still pierced out.
"Are you going to kill me with this ridiculous toy?!" Harrie didn't dodge at all, but directly grabbed No. 86's long sword with his sharp claws, and the blade that slowly slowed down actually brought out a dazzling steel flower in its hand! The demon's other palm was already stuck in his neck. Suddenly, No. 86 struggled to be carried into the air. "Die, my dear sir!" he said, squeezing his finger sharply, and the sharp knuckles pierced into Eight-Six's neck.
At that moment, a low trilling voice came from the corner of the armory room. "Let me go!" Selena shouted, her fingers clasping the bowstring snapped twice, and two feathered arrows that shimmered black shot out.
Harleye's dangerous aura startled Harleye, and before it could make evasive moves, one arrow had already pierced its shoulder, and another thud had pierced into its bright yellow eyeballs!"Ahhh......h Taking this opportunity, No. 86 kicked on the opponent's chest and broke free from the demon's palm. "I'm going to kill you! I'm going to kill you!" Harleye's remaining three eyes locked on Selena's figure, and the six bone spurs behind her pierced out in an instant.
As if aware of the demon's possible blows, Selena shrewdly rolled along the wall, dodging Harleye's attack. But at this time, No. 86 also got up from the ground and quickly pounced on Selena, who had not yet gotten up. "Now, Mott, kill it for me!" he pressed Selena directly under him, protecting her body as much as he could.
"Yes, boss, do you know how long I've been waiting!" The skull, which had not spoken for a long time, finally popped out of the corner at the other end of the armory, and it had witnessed what had just happened, and finally looked forward to the moment when it showed its talents! "Sorry, mage, see me avenge you! quack quack......"
Ignoring Semar's puzzled gaze, Mott grinned and grabbed an oil lamp from the wall, flicking it at several barrels stacked in the corner. In the astonished gaze of the Blood and Bone Demon, an uncontrolled oil lamp suddenly flew out of the air, and the next moment, the dazzling white light flashed suddenly, and the entire world seemed to be swallowed up in an instant.
"Boom ......"
In the dark night, an earth-shattering loud bang exploded on the second floor of the mansion, orange and yellow flames rolled and lit up the entire sky, and the huge impact shattered more than ten floor-to-ceiling windows on the left and right, like a starry firework, burning furniture, floors, broken wood, and broken glass, armor, and weapons that reflected the firelight flew all over the sky, with bright trails, drawing arcs scattered everywhere.
After a long time, Semar struggled to raise his head from the splinters of wood and dust, and he felt like he was going crazy in the face of the smoke and fire in the distance. The smell in the air was all too familiar to him, elemental explosive powder!
This little powder, invented by the alchemy maniacs of Saint Slan, he had already learned in the materials science experiment class of the academy! The question was how could this extremely low-yield, and strictly controlled, high-risk spell-casting material appear here! Moreover, who was this woman named Selena? How could she have the ability to get this thing, even several barrels in stock!
But at this time, he can't care so much anymore, and he is now more concerned about how his "teammates" are. "Eighty-six! Mott, say something when you hear it!Hell, are you still alive?!!" Semar cried out inwardly, for he was too badly injured to come forward to check on the situation.
"I, of course I'm still alive! How could the great Mott die here! quack quack...... "The skull floated in the blackened armory room on the floor, and the entire two rooms were completely blown away, and in front of it, where the floor-to-ceiling windows were located, even the pillars were gone, and simply turned into an open terrace. "As for the boss?...... it finished admiring its "masterpiece" and searched around, and soon found a struggling figure in the corner of the wall far away from the bombing point. "Praise the master, the boss is fine, quack!"
No. 86 weakly propped himself up, tearing at the tinnitus in his head that made him almost faint, and with great force he pulled Selena to his feet, shaking and shaking. It's not that he doesn't want to speak, it's that the severe tinnitus makes him unable to hear anything at all. But fortunately, Selena, who was protected by herself, was obviously fine except for her makeup and a little pale face.
As for the Bloody Bone Demon, Number 86 didn't think the other party would survive such an explosion. In fact, this is the plan that he and Mott really gambled their lives after discovering elemental powder powder. (To be continued.) )
