Chapter 408: Confrontation

For the warnings given by Theseus, Hug took it very seriously.

In fact, even if Theseus hadn't reminded him of this, it would have been impossible for Theseus to despise the opponent in front of him.

Because now Kzlov looks really wrong.

Although his face and body were not the same as before, his eyes were constantly flickering with strange light and shadow, and as Kzlov advanced, these gloomy abyssal mists continued to emerge from the pupils of his eyes, coiling around his body as if they had life.

"Smack!"

The court hound leaps lightly from a carbonized corpse, its chelicerae limbs extending from its back tapping against the ground in a certain rhythm, a common sign when it enters a state of alert.

Although relying on his own ability, the court hound successfully avoided Kzlov's magical bombardment, but now the strange aura emanating from the other party's body really made the court hound feel threatened.

And Shuge, who has a magical connection with the hound, also receives the general feeling of the hound.

The sense of oppression emanating from Kzlov was different from that of the abyss.

In the extremely keen perception of the hound, Kzlov's aura has completely surpassed the more common Abyssal Races such as the Abyss Chelous Spider, and it can even be said that the feeling that Kzlov brings to the Hound is highly similar to those strange and dangerous existences in the Abyss Court.

Then a word popped out of Hug's head, and he immediately asked Theseus in his mind: "The Chosen One?" ”

"Thinking too much."

Theseus denied: "The court of the Abyss is completely different from the so-called gods of Vane's past, and it is very inappropriate to apply such a concept...... However, in a way, he does have some similarities with the 'Chosen One'...... Compared to the other believers and clansmen, he obviously got more from the Abyss Court......"

Before Theseus could finish his words, Kzlov had already made a new move.

He stood still not far from Xiuge, and the abyssal mist coiled around his body trembled violently twice, and then these strange thick mist directly turned into pitch-black chains under the effect of magic power.

Hug had seen such chains.

When he first attended a meeting of the Black Sun Society and was asked to perform a so-called "blasphemy ritual" on the statue of the goddess of magic, Mel, the chains designed to penetrate the goddess's body were like this.

And now, the pitch-black chains were gently writhing beside Kzlov, and as they continued to move, the dark green magical luster that belonged to Kzlov began to spread towards them.

Soon, the deadly color enveloped the chains with sharp ends, making them look like venomous snakes covered in dark green lightning.

"Mr. Ernst, you have not changed at all."

The voice slowly came from Kzlov's mouth, and under the influence of the magic of the abyss, his voice became distant and cold, sounding like a terrifying echo from the abyss behind the black sun.

"Just like the last time we met, you're still so arrogant and arrogant...... Again, this can bring 'surprises' to people. ”

"Hehe, thanks for the compliment."

Shuge tugged at the corners of his mouth, and then he shook his arm slightly, and the black sword that had been shattered by the fierce collision with the enemy in the previous battle once again extended from his palm.

With this action, the Calon Touch, which had collapsed in large numbers due to Kzlov's lethal magic, re-emerged from behind Shug, and this time, the mist from the Mirror Emissary enveloped all the nascent Calron Touches, blurring their outlines and adding a bit of mystery out of thin air.

"You're different, Mr. Kzlov."

A smile with a strong sarcasm appeared on Xiuge's face: "Based on what I've observed about you over the past few years, you're much older than when we first met...... Is it that the affairs within the Black Sun Society are too busy? Or maybe it's because you have too many useless idiots within you? ”

As he spoke, Shug slowly raised his head, and the dark mask flashed across his face, and then the face that belonged to Baron Fiorlando disappeared in a flash.

Kzlov stared at Shug, even though his eyes were filled with thick shadows of the abyss, but anyone who looked directly at Kzlov could clearly feel his anger at this time.

"You have received more favors and blessings than we do, but you have no appreciation for this precious gift...... Tell me, how exactly did you get them? Is it deception, or is it plunder? ”

"Ha, I don't know, maybe it's just because I'm lucky, what about the gods who look at me well? After all, I woke up like this, isn't your prophecy omnipotent, why don't you go back and look at it? ”

Speaking of this, Xiuge's tone paused, and a slightly exaggerated expression suddenly appeared on his face: "Ahhh ”

"I really can't, I can also write it for you, and I guarantee that it will be more popular than what he wrote...... As long as you're willing to pay for it, that's fine. ”

Before the words fell, Xiuge's left hand suddenly raised slightly, and the Calon touches on the left side of his body suddenly rolled up, and a large amount of abyssal mist gathered towards Xiuge's side with this movement, forming a huge translucent "shadow shield" with those writhing Calon touches.

At the moment when the "shield" was formed, a cloud of pitch-black light and shadow flying from the oblique thorn slammed into it, causing the abyss mist that had been condensed together to vibrate violently.

Xiuge didn't even turn his head to look, and these Calon touches, which were attached to a large amount of mist, responded with great speed.

I saw them shrink rapidly, dissolving all the aftermath of the lethal magic, and the little magic that escaped from them was swallowed up on the spot by the writhing Calon touch.

After "tasting" the magic within, the tentacles stabbed out in a specific direction as if they had locked onto their target.

Scarlet blood gushed out of thin air in the light of the light and darkness, and a body hidden nearby by magic was pierced by Calron's touch on the spot, and huge holes were mercilessly pierced in his chest and abdomen, and the internal organs and flesh were turned into residues under the violent stirring.

Kzlov stood silently, neither attacking nor stopping Shug's killing of the Black Sun Mage.

After the mangled body was shaken to the ground by Karon's touch, Kzlov spoke slowly: "There is nothing wrong with what you say, there is also a large number of stupid and unguided moths in the association...... The only thing they have is loyalty, loyalty to the gods. ”

"Mr. Ernst, people like you have always been what the Association desires, and whether or not you are the 'only son of the abyss' mentioned in the prophecy, your mind and ability can truly lead the Society to that great vision."

Xiuge squinted at the other party: "Why, at this point, the association is still considering the option of persuasion and cooperation?" ”

"Why not?"

As he spoke, Kzlov let out a low laugh: "Since you already have the ability to take the faces and memories of others, then you must also know that after that great black sun, devouring and merging is a basic method of cooperation......

With Kzlov's words, the dark green chains that hovered beside him began to point in the direction of Shug: "Monsieur Ernst, when we first met, you could have personally performed the blasphemous rite and become close comrades in arms with the remnants and truths left behind by countless gods...... It's a pity that you chose to refuse, and in that case, let me complete the broken ritual for you. ”

Kzlov's voice began to twist in a distorted direction, and a cold echo from the concussions of magic wafted through the square: "After seizing your memories and thoughts, I will naturally go to meet my naΓ―ve student...... When the time comes, you and Meyer will be reunited in the shadows of eternity. ”

As the words fell, a blinding light suddenly appeared in the distant sky.

It was a violent explosion when a heavy crystalline cannonball collided with a large protective ritual.

Xiuge raised his head slightly, his eyes flickering slightly as he looked at the astonishing tracks that crossed the southern night sky.

These heavy crystalline shells were clearly not fired from the direction of the Rock Lake mine.

Their numbers, power, and remaining trails indicate that the shelling is most likely coming from the direction of the Kingdom of Waterl, which indicates that the turmoil that took place on this particular night has been successfully known to the rear, and not only that, but they have also actively adjusted their tactics and actively launched a strike against the territory of Saint-Steele.

The successive roars came from afar, and you didn't need to look at Xiuge to know that a considerable part of these crystalline shells must have been aimed at the "key targets" that they had marked.

So he took a step forward and said aloud: "Kzlov, watch carefully!" ”

"The so-called 'fools' whom you despise have now begun to vent their fire on you...... They are not weak targets, but messengers of death that can bestow upon you, and as for me, I am just one of them. ”

Intense light bloomed in the southern sky of Overwatch, and the violent impact tore two tiny cracks in the defense ceremony of Overwatch, and a large number of magical fluctuations poured into these cracks, like sharp blades, breaking into the hovering flock of Asharu birds, outlining two distinct blood-colored traces in them.

The deafening explosions drowned out the piercing screams of the Atmir eagles, the fearsome predators who had reached their destination, and the artillery positions in the rocky lake mines were destined to be destroyed.

The streets of Overwatch are still filled with sporadic gunfire, the last of the Sharp-beaked Owl Battalion members, most of whom have been cleared by the Black Sun Society, and under the siege of a large number of Dark Dogs and Asaru Birds, these mercenaries with limited abilities can only barely struggle in the houses and fortifications.

In the midst of the chaos, the magic in Xiuge's body completely exploded.

Time has dragged on long enough, and the rear has already made the most active response, so there is only one thing left for him to do.

With a terrifying roar, the figure of the court hound disappeared in place.

In the next moment, the monstrous beast tore through the shadows with the chelicerae on its back, and sprang out of a pile of broken masonry beside Kzlov, claws, fangs, and sharp limbs falling in different directions.

Those twisting chains are not ordinary.

As carriers of the favors bestowed on their followers by the Abyss Court, they responded as soon as the Hounds appeared, the dark green electric light that coiled around them burst out in the direction of the Hounds, and multiple chains twisted from the side, ready to use their sharp ends to penetrate their targets.

Snich, the Running Rat, reappeared beside Xiuge, and under the protection of a large number of Ernst rats, it took the initiative to meet the members of the Black Sun Society whose bodies were distorted, and the other rats pounced on the casters and soldiers who were ready to use magic to support Kzlov despite their own injuries.

The powerful vitality of the "Walking Forest" flowed through Xiuge's body, and the wound caused by Kzlov began to heal rapidly, and the fatigue caused by the long battle was quickly washed away.

In this way, Shug launched a charge in the direction of Kzlov.

Countless touches of Calon swept upward, entangled with Kzlov's dark green chains, and the two cognate magics began to strangle each other, and the terrible concussions and piercing grinding sounds tormented the spirits and eardrums of everyone in the square.

After repelling the surprise attack launched by the court hounds again, Kzlov suddenly launched a swift counterattack, a large number of dark green chains twisted together, annihilating the large number of Calon touches that were pouring towards him on the spot, and then these chains suddenly "bloomed", weaving a huge dark green web directly beside Xiuge's body.

However, these terrible chains were not able to be stabbed.

A magical page infused with an excess of the magic power of the Abyss by Xiuge was thrown out by him, and the extremely cold cold spread out in all directions with the page as the center of the circle.

After receiving the support of special magic, the "Cold Pool", which was originally just a lake-level magic, completely unleashed all its potential, and the pale ice grew wantonly around it, and there were even a few special deep traces in the pale blue color.
