Chapter 39: Chariots
Escape!
There was only one word left in Lowe's mind.
He ran wildly through the deserted black streets with all his might. Behind him, the black mist with the bells was approaching, like a rushing wave, as if it was about to swallow up all the light between heaven and earth.
Luo Wei could clearly feel that his vision was gradually getting dark as the bell approached.
Even if he had run frantically, he still couldn't get rid of the unknown pursuers behind him.
The line of sight seemed to be covered by ink, and gradually only an extremely faint outline remained between heaven and earth, and finally even the outline became blurred.
The moment his vision fell into total darkness, Luo Wei seemed to lose his sense of his surroundings, and the touch under his feet immediately became distorted.
It's a flat street, but it's like you're stepping on bumpy ground.
βοΌοΌβ
Luo Wei slammed into the air and fell to the ground.
He struggled to his feet, his eyes wide open, trying to capture even a glimmer of light from his surroundings.
But he failed.
In the confused footsteps, the sound of the death knell quickly closed the distance, and in an instant, it sounded in his ears.
Luo Wei's heart was alarmed, and his ears suddenly sounded mixed with a cold sound of breaking the sky. However, at this moment, it was too late to avoid it, and some heavy blunt object smashed on his shoulder with unbelievable force.
Click-
Luo Wei heard a crisp cracking sound from his body, and before he could even feel the pain, his body was already like a broken piece of cloth, tumbling and flying out, slamming heavily on the ground.
Cough! ββ
A spicy stream of heat gushed out of his throat, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Ah...... I remember you. β
"When you took the holy relics, you were not only present, but you also summoned the Divine Domain."
"It's a terrible god's domain, almost swallowing me."
The cold and dry voice came condescendingly, and the peculiar tone made Luo Wei feel inexplicably weird, terrifying and crazy.
"But today, you're unlucky."
At this moment, Luo Wei had lost all his strength, and the pain in his heart was being transmitted from his shattered right shoulder blade to the hundreds of bones in his limbs.
He could even clearly feel that his life was passing.
"Huh-"
The low sound of inhalation is like a tattered bellows.
Even if Lowe couldn't see anything at this time, he could imagine a tall, tattered cloaked skeleton standing beside him, starting to chant something.
"The Creator of all living things,
Lord of the River of the Dead,
The Destination of the Soul and Flesh β
The great god of death and life, Danato!
Your faithful servant asks for the Styx Dead,
Offer the lost lamb to your meal! β
In a strange tone, the ground began to shake. A surging roar swept in from afar.
The next moment, a strange and familiar scene appeared in Luo Wei's sight.
The red river was mixed with countless filth.
The surrounding buildings and streets quickly decayed and collapsed, turning the ground into a ruin-like black ground.
The canopy was an unrealistically bright orange. A huge, almost pure black eye opened across the canopy, staring at him condescendingly.
The gaze was like substance, as if there was an indescribable power that pulled something out of him.
Lowe finally saw clearly, but what he saw was a hellish picture.
He came to the so-called "Styx" again, and was forcibly summoned into it by the strange skeleton in front of him.
And the "monster" of the initiator was two meters in front of him, quietly suspended in mid-air, watching him.
"Mysterious and mysterious, the door of all wonders ......"
Lowe gritted his teeth and said this with difficulty between his teeth.
However, nothing happened.
He doesn't feel the slightest fluctuation or change.
"The lowly worm is still praying for the protection of his ridiculous gods."
With a flick of his wand in the skeleton's hand, he lifted Lowe through the air and threw him next to a mound of ruined dirt.
"The realm of Lord Danato's domination cannot be broken into by any god! In the Styx Dead Realm, He is the rule, and His will is the order. β
The skeleton's voice was calm and cold, and there was a hint of disdain in the hollow.
He just watched quietly: the black soil around him seemed to be a living creature, gradually climbing up Lowe's body, trying to drag him into the black mire.
The right half of Lowe's body was completely unconscious, blood staining his clothes and sticking to the skin around him.
Even so, he gritted his teeth desperately, and with his remaining left hand, he pulled his wand out of his coat pocket.
"Fireball...... Technique! β
A faint flame erupted from the tip of the wand and was extinguished in an instant.
"Thunder and lightning!"
He swung his wand hard, and a burst of blue lightning shot out, but it was badly off-course and flew away from nowhere.
Luo Wei cursed in his heart, desperately remembering in his mind what spells in the captain's booklet that might have caused damage to the skeleton in front of him.
"Ice ...... Cone! β
"Gravel...... Curse! β
Either it simply fails, or it doesn't work at all.
Lowe's breathing grew rapid. He felt like his lungs were like breached bellows, and he could no longer draw a shred of oxygen for himself.
Every heartbeat hit my chest like a hammer. The pain that hit from all sides had gradually become numb.
His vision blurred for a while, and his arms trembled uncontrollably.
Lowe knew he was rapidly approaching death.
Who the hell is this skeleton...... Church of the Death Knell...... What is the purpose......
You can't just die......
The wand fell, and Lowe's arm drooped, and his eyes began to shake rapidly. In his vision, there was a picture of a marquee-like fragmented and flickering at high speed.
Die...... No......
Can't die in ...... Over here......
And Belinda...... Captain......
Yvette ...... Still haven't found ......
My Divination...... She's alive......
Tarot......
The only touch left in his left hand came. Through his pocket, his hand was draped over the tarot card in his pocket.
"I can't ......"
Lowe's lips twitched, and his palms no longer had the strength to pull out the tarot cards that had saved him.
He could only use all his strength, using two fingers, to grip one of them and slowly pull it out of his pocket.
"Leviin's Heart-Burning Curse!"
The skeleton screamed, and the wand in his hand shot out a green light, striking Lowe in the chest.
Luo Wei shuddered violently, and his eyes went black and he lost consciousness. The cards in your hand also fall to the ground.
However, the next moment, the scene in front of him suddenly changed-
The tarot cards on the ground emitted a strange color, and soon a black and white light curtain was born.
There was a strong roar in the light curtain, and two huge figures, one black and one white, jumped out of the light curtain, protecting Luo Wei from the left and right.
They seem to be painted with strange oil paint, and their strong lion bodies have human-like faces.
And immediately after, the two-wheeled chariot like the car of the god of war, with a huge vibration and momentum, drove from the void into the realm of this evil god.
Boom β
On the car, a figure wearing a crown and holding a wand was urging the huge chariot to stop in front of Lowe.
"The Supreme God brings protection with his wings
Your most loyal guard, the inscriber of your oath
Will fight at any cost
Achieve the glory of victory for you! β
If Lowe was still conscious, he would have been able to recognize it on the spot, and this was the chariot of the big Arcana with the number 7 in the tarot deck.
It symbolizes balance, protection, swiftness, determination and victory.
"Impossible!" There was panic in the skeleton's tone, "Lord Danato's Sanctuary, how could it be broken into by a summon?!" β
"Leviin's Heart-Burning Curse!"
"The cremation spell of Chara Rinvis!"
The skeleton flicked its wand, and one after another level 7 magic spells bombarded the "chariot".
However, the chariot, which shone with holy white light, was only not badly damaged.
The driver of the chariot raised his wand and shouted in a sonorous tone:
"For victory!"
"Charge!!"
The huge wheels roared and rolled, and the two sphinx-faced guardian beasts, one white and one black, rushed forward and pounced straight on the skeleton's figure.
Boast! ββ
Only one staggered, and with the sound of violent explosions, the surrounding scene began to collapse rapidly.
The turbulent rivers of blood quickly dried up and receded;
The canopy regained the deep blue of the night;
The black Styx beach is also shattered like a mirrorβ
The huge chariot, along with the unconscious Lowe, landed again on the stone street in the night.
A dark shadow flew upside down, tumbling and falling to the ground. The ghostly skeletal form quickly faded, and when the phantom ended, it revealed its true form.
Medium-long brown hair, deep eye sockets, high cheekbones, and a thin face - this is none other than the seventh-level wizard who was previously in the villa, "SΓ©ance" Oleg!
His face contorted, and a mouthful of black blood erupted.
Oleg stared at the "chariot" on the street, his eyes full of horror, unwillingness and resentment.
"Impossible, what the hell is this?!"
In the distance, the sound of scurrying footsteps could be heard in the streets.
Someone has broken through the barrier of illusion and is rushing towards here.
He gritted his teeth, waved his sleeves, and quickly turned into a cloud of black smoke, sweeping himself away from this messy battlefield.
The "chariot" did not move again, but quietly stood in front of Lowe and watched Oleg leave.
"Lowe? Are you there?! β
Captain Evan's shouts came from the street not far away.
