The spell recited through the symbiosis pact by sharing the forbidden knowledge of the ghostly demon had no effect—the strange fact that the spell failed was more consternation to the two Annihilators at the scene than a corpse that had woken up from a coffin prematurely.

What's more, the "Death Bird" is one of the ghostly demons with powerful spells!

The woman in the black dress with a thin face looked at the "resurrection" who was standing quietly in front of her in disbelief, the surface of the black chain spreading from her collarbone floating with uneasy smoke and dust, and at the same time, she also felt that something was wrong with the state of the "death bird" that she was living with - this ghostly demon was constantly sending extremely dangerous signals, and even wanted to cut off contact with her master and return to the dark realm!

She finally reacted, and quickly grabbed the chain at the Death Bird's feet with one hand, and the other hand was in the air, while staring at Duncan's eyes: "Something is wrong...... You're not this dead man...... Who are you? ”

"Tell me first, who are you?" Duncan looked at the woman in front of him, and then at the silent man not far away, who was keeping his distance from him, still holding a "crowbar cane" in his hand, "Let me guess...... First of all, you are obviously not some messenger of death, you deceived the guard, use ...... Well, the so-called 'camouflage technique', you're coming at me—or rather, at the shell I'm using, I'm right? ”

The woman in the black dress opened her mouth slightly, her lips moved as if she was saying something, but Duncan didn't hear it clearly, and in the next second, the woman suddenly raised her right hand that she had been holding weakly, and the low and muttered in her mouth turned into a weird scream!

The "Death Bird" demon that stopped on her shoulder also suddenly spread its wings at the same time, and under the control of the symbiotic contract, the ghostly demon had to resist its instinctive fear and launched an attack on Duncan.

A heavy pressure suddenly appeared, followed by the abnormal shaking and distortion of the ground under his feet, and the ground around Duncan suddenly fluctuated like liquid, and then several huge black thorns like bone spurs suddenly shot out of the earth, entangled!

Duncan, however, didn't make the slightest sign of dodging - mainly because the terrible makeshift shell couldn't handle it too quickly - he just watched calmly as the thorns came to him, as they wrapped around his body.

Then, a grand spirit flame rose from the thorn bush, and in an instant, the thorn bush summoned by the spell turned into a pitch-black ash that disappeared with the wind with the remnants of the sparkling fire.

"I told you that you might as well smash the bird on your shoulder - it might even scare me."

Duncan sighed helplessly, but as soon as he finished speaking, he felt that something seemed wrong in his body.

He subconsciously raised his hand, and the next second he was shocked to see that his hands were cracked one after another.

It was not a wound from a bramble just now, but a spontaneous tear that continued to grow as Duncan watched, as if the skin and muscles of this body had suddenly lost their vitality and elasticity, and had rapidly cracked in this dry and cold weather.

There was only a small amount of blood in the breach, and the shriveled debris continued to fall from the wound, and in just a few seconds, Duncan could clearly feel that his already weak body had become a little more fragile.

He looked at the strange changes in his body in surprise, and then looked up at the woman in the black dress opposite: "This is also the power of the spell?" Did it work this time? ”

The woman in the black dress didn't seem to have recovered from the impact of the "thorns" failing and completely extinguished, her face was much paler, and the death bird on her shoulder also drooped her head weakly, but after hearing Duncan's words, a smile suddenly appeared on her face: "Ah, it seems that this body is almost at the limit...... It's much easier to deal with that way. ”

"Reaching the limit?" Duncan asked subconsciously, he seemed to have guessed something from the other party's attitude and words, but just as he was about to say something more, the woman in the black dress suddenly said in a cold voice: "Do it." ”

As soon as her words fell, the taciturn emaciated man next to her had already moved, he looked at Duncan with an expressionless face, and the ghostly demon floating in the air, like a smoky jellyfish, suddenly expanded and contracted, and a cloud of snorting dark matter spewed out of the jellyfish's body, smashing into Duncan like a cannonball!

However, the "acid cannonball" was already glowing with a faint green glow halfway through, disintegrating and dissipating before it could reach its target, and disappeared silently.

Duncan watched helplessly as the dark matter exploded: "I told you, this thing doesn't ......"

Before he could finish his sentence, the smoke and sparks in mid-air had already dissipated, and when the smoke cleared, he saw that the silent man not far away had raised the cane towards him—the cane was broken from it, and the barrel of a large-caliber gun with a black hole poked out of the crack.

"Bang!!"

The fire burst from the barrel of the gun, but the sound did not reach the area around the morgue - the woman in the black dress had already raised her fingers in advance and made a silent gesture.

The large-caliber bullet tore through the air, and there was a muffled noise in the silence range, and Duncan's eyes caught the trajectory of the last leg of the bullet, but he did nothing, just glanced at the silent man who lived in symbiosis with the jellyfish-like demon out of the corner of his eye.

In the next second, his vision briefly fell into darkness.

His skull was shattered by the powerful impact of a special bullet, and the part above his neck was gone.

Duncan's body shook, he stood there and thought for a moment, then raised his hand and touched the top of his neck, and when he found that he didn't touch anything, he reached out and pointed his middle finger in the direction of the woman in the black dress and the silent man, and then fell on his back.

The woman in the black dress stared at the strange and terrifying headless body.

She watched as her companion shot the body in the head, and watched as the body raised its hand and touched the part of the missing skull, and watched the strange behavior of the body—it was not a reaction of a body that had lost its head!

Whatever it was—the thing that took over this body was definitely not dead! It's just gone, a temporary banishment.

Knowing that it would be dangerous to continue to stay, the woman in the black dress had decided to give up today's action, and she immediately looked up at her companion: "Let's go, leave the cemetery and signal to those two people, the situation is very wrong today......"

The silent man with a strange cane did not move for a moment, as if he had not heard the voice of his companion.

He stood there silently, and a faint green flame flickered away from the pitch-black chains that stretched out of his throat.

This spark had soaked into his body along the chains and flesh.

His heart had been burned.

"Hey, do you hear that?" The serious and impatient voice of the woman in the black dress came again, "Hurry up and leave, otherwise the movement today will be too big when that guard reacts!" ”

The emaciated man with a cane in his hand nodded, and slowly turned around.

"What did you just do?" The woman in the black dress stared at her companion, but quickly looked away, "Alright, we must get out of here, Duncan." ”

"Of course," Duncan smiled, "this place is not to stay long. ”

The woman in the black dress nodded, and was about to turn around and walk down the path, but just as she was about to turn her head, the "Death Bird" that had been perched on her shoulder suddenly let out a sharp and strange scream, and the ghostly demon's bone fragments clicked, and the black smoke and dust rose in all directions, and then it turned its head sharply and stared in Duncan's direction, constantly shaking its wings while making a strange click.

Behind Duncan, the jellyfish-like demon floating in the air suddenly burst into flames, and in a pitch-black smoke and flame, the disembodied jellyfish demon was burned out of thin air in a matter of seconds, and the chain that connected the symbiote made a series of piercing rattles, scattered into broken chains.

The woman in the black dress stopped suddenly.

Through the connection between the chains, she felt the great fear of the "Death Bird" and the warning of impending death.

She even faintly felt the visual signal of the Dead Bird - as the demon on her shoulder turned to Duncan, a sharp sting pain instantly pierced her brain like an awl, and she felt her retina burn, and the indescribable distorted light and shadow filled her reddened, dark vision!

Ordinary demons have no heart, they only move by instinct, and when great danger arises, they do not care about the mental health of their master like a dog.

"Hmm-" The woman in the black dress instantly let out a low cry, and subconsciously took two steps back in pain and trance, she held on to the street lamp next to her, and looked at the familiar but unfamiliar emaciated figure standing under the intersection of street lights and shadows in horror, "You...... What the hell are you?! ”

Duncan looked at the ugly bone monster bird on his shoulder (much uglier than Ey), then turned his head to look at the little black ash on the ground behind him, and sighed regretfully.

"Ignorance is a blessing," he said, shaking his head, "you are blessed." ”
