Chapter 126: Greed and Wrath and the Prophecy Child (5,000 words)
Luke, who jumped out of the co-pilot, locked on to the big truck driver in mid-air, and the "siphon line" was generated out of thin air and shot out quickly.
The crimson flames shattered the driver's skull in an instant, then refracted back, creating an eggshell-like shield around Luke.
In case of indecision, let go of the shield first.
The shield created by the Siphon Line is the first to make contact with the ground, negating the inertial damage caused by jumping out of a high-speed vehicle.
Old William was also protected by the shield and did not suffer much damage, but he was too old, his body was aging, and his cardiovascular and cerebrovascular vessels did not seem to be very smooth.
Luke landed steadily, and the big truck, which lost control of the driver, still maintained its original direction, knocking the Volvo over.
However, the Volvo is arguably the safest car, and even so, the frame remains intact and has not been deformed.
Fearing a follow-up attack, Luke scanned the surroundings and found no enemy for the time being, but still placed old William on the side of the road by a remote and inconspicuous bush.
If there are no follow-up enemies, or if the enemy is particularly weak, let him rest there for a while.
If there is an evenly matched opponent, it will be too much drag with him, and it will not be beneficial to both sides, so you can only bet on the luck of Old William to see if the other party will notice him.
After quickly placing Old William, Luke immediately [shifted], swapped places with a crow, and continued to observe the situation cautiously.
Before he could find anything else, the compartment of the big truck suddenly made a loud "knock" sound, and something knocked out a big hole, and then, a man wearing full armor tore off the door of the carriage and jumped down.
Luke watched intently, and there was also a strangely dressed woman with a gold dust face in the carriage, who was moving out of the carriage little by little with strange steps.
The moment she appeared, the mist began to fill all around, forming only a refreshing clearing in the middle, giving Luke a feeling somewhat similar to the [Expulsion Mist] of the [Dreaded Scarecrow].
Before the two of them rushed over to attack, Luke checked the attributes of the two first.
First the man who rushed out first.
[Vengeful Spirit] / [Fury]
The vengeful spirit of the Indian race, awakened by Giroba, has taken over the body of the invaders and formed a terrifying monster. The vengeful spirit is made up of some of the Indian warriors killed by the colonizers over the past century, ignited by the anger of the invasion and slaughter, and full of resentment against all white races.
【Skills】
[Soul of Fury] infects self and enemies with the original sin of rage, increasing the desire to fight and anger.
【Indian War Stick Technique】Indian warriors use shaman pairs to practice and endow the thunder and fire attribute with the weapon's supernatural fighting ability.
All attacks of the Vengeful Soul of Vengeance will greatly increase the damage of the Caucasian race, and fighting the Caucasian race will greatly increase the effect of the [Raging Soul].
【Elite Armor】Girover uses sorcery to unite the armor, the invader's body, and the vengeful spirit, increasing its resistance to physical damage and spell damage at the cost of never being able to change his body or take off his armor.
Ah, this, elite warriors, skills have madness, intelligence reduction, mixed damage, and damage reduction.
It's so hard to fight.
And the skin dividends that Luke has eaten for a long time have finally ushered in a backlash.
At this time, Luke just wanted to sing a song "Although I wear a dress, my heart is still Chinese", and tell the vengeful soul on the other side, big brother, don't look at my whiteness, but I am a white-skinned and yellow-hearted "egg man", how about we yellow people don't fight yellow people?
But it was clear that in the face of the angry vengeful spirit, no amount of quibbling would be of any avail.
Luke shifted his gaze to the strange woman standing behind the Vengeful Spirit.
[Giroba]/[Heart-shaped Lake Banshee]/[Greed]
【Skills】
【Life Money】Jiroba can offset the damage he takes by consuming a large amount of valuables.
【Deadly Sonic Wave】Giroba can manipulate sound waves and use sound magic.
【Heart-Shaped Lake】Giroba summons the projection of the Heart-shaped Lake around him, and the water of the Heart-shaped Lake appears in the form of mist, blocking the surrounding space and limiting the spatial capabilities.
The mist projected by the Heart-shaped Lake has the ability to heal injuries.
【Turning Corpses into Gold】Giroba can partially convert enemy corpses into "Adamantite Gold".
Luke didn't care about the [Turning Corpses into Gold] skill, and was startled by the [Heart-shaped Lake] first.
His current main combat method is to use spells to kite enemies from a distance through the high mobility of the crow's [Shapeshift], and basically unless the enemy of the strength of the particularly tricky "goatman" is cleared, he can clear the level without damage.
The enemy is clearly prepared, knows his details, and knows his real-time location.
When they met, they directly opened the [Heart-shaped Lake] domain and abolished his battle system.
The only good news is that William Sr. is really not conspicuous enough to be pulled in, and Luke does not have to worry about the burden.
He didn't bother to reflect on his recent swelling psychology caused by learning spells too smoothly, and sensed the nearby crows first.
There was no problem with psionic induction, Luke tried to activate [Shapeshift], but it didn't work, he still stayed where he was.
The crows are even more unbearable, a few of them are obviously outside the mist, but they are like encountering ghosts hitting the wall, and they can't fly in alive or dead.
Exiting from the carriage, Giroba and the Vengeful Spirit stood firm, briefly calming down the discomfort caused by the impact of the vehicle, and then immediately attacked Luke.
Giroba's mouth opened widely, and strange and sharp sound waves came, and the shield outside Luke's body rippled a lot, and it was destroyed in an instant, Luke's ears began to buzz, his head was dizzy, and his body trembled uncontrollably, as if he was being pulled by an invisible force.
His internal organs also began to vibrate with the frequency of the sound waves, and his heart, lungs, and abdomen resonated violently.
This constant resonance made his body feel extremely uncomfortable, his breathing became more and more rapid, his heart beat faster and faster, and his stomach began to churn, as if it was about to be torn apart by a powerful energy.
Luke barely used the psionic energy, constantly washing them from head to toe, turning on [Bullet Time] to strengthen the body, and combining it with the "Breathing Technique" to combat the energy of the sound waves.
As the psionic energy surged, the discomfort gradually disappeared.
The spirit of vengeance had already rushed towards it with heavy steps.
Luke backs away as he flicks a few flame rays at Giroba.
Giroba's sound magic is really a bit hard to resist, and the group should be crispy first.
After the second is over, he has recovered the ability of [Shapeshifting], and the stupid warrior of the soul of revenge is not just killing randomly?
The flame ray was extremely fast, and by the time Giroba spotted the attack, the flame had already come within a few meters of it.
She twisted to avoid the point, but her arm was still grazed by the ray, and a piece of flesh was taken away by the scorching ray.
I have to say that although the ray ability is not as high as the damage of the fireball spell, the speed is really fast, no wonder Victor is so fond of ray spells and has developed a variety of derivative abilities.
Luke instantly passed by two more firing lines, and now Giroba was prepared in advance, his mouth opened, and invisible sound waves came out of his mouth, blocking the two rays in midair.
After a few delays, and Luke's body hadn't fully recovered from the previous sonic attack, the Spirit of Vengeance had already been taped into.
The stout vengeful spirit picked up the rough wand, leaned slightly, and the wand slammed into Luke's right shoulder at an eerie angle with thunder and flames.
Familiar feeling!
It was as if Luke had experienced this scene countless times.
In the state of [Bullet Time], he dodged with a short body according to the skills he had honed thousands of times in his memory, and pulled a wooden stick from the side of his hand, attaching the psionic energy to protect its fragile texture, and then also summoned thunder fire, stabbing from the ribs to the lower abdomen of the vengeful spirit.
Vengeful Spirits felt the same way as Luke.
He reacted instinctively and took a small step back, just in time to avoid Luke's insidious blow.
This mutual attack and defense, the two seem to have a tacit understanding, and they play a set of "eyebrows and swords" and "affectionate knives", all of which dodge each other's attacks in a millimeter.
If it was a ring match, the audience would be shouting "Fake match!" "Geneva! Refund! ”
The vengeful spirit continued to follow the soul memory, making a fist with its left hand and slamming it into Luke's chin, followed by the warstick in his right hand, striking Luke on the ribs from the side.
Luke's brain didn't think about it at all, and subconsciously raised his forearm to block the left hand of the vengeful spirit, and the wooden stick attached to the spiritual energy in his hand burst out a large amount of thunder, instantly knocking the baton that came from the side into the air.
Both took a few steps back at the same time.
Lukeli was inferior to a man, rubbing his forearm with a dull pain.
The soul of vengeance lacked strength, and his right hand was torn by Luke's psionic thunder, and it was a little scorched.
Luke couldn't help but have a sentence in his mind: "It's all taught by a master, and you can't break it." ”
Giroba seems to have discovered something interesting, and since the two just met, he no longer interfered, and let the two "play match-fixing".
The vengeful spirit stopped attacking and asked with a cold face, "Where did you learn the improved Thunder Fire Battle Stick Technique of the Apache tribe?" That tribe is long gone. ”
Luke thought for a moment, I think I've done this question before, and I know the standard answer.
He saw that things seemed to be taking a turn for the better, and since there was a chance to solve the problem, he tried not to use force.
The main thing is that he will most likely not be able to defeat him by force.
In this case, everyone should be a civilized person, and it is the best choice to sit down and communicate well.
He replied, "I have obtained a broken inheritance relic before, from which I have obtained the cultivation method of the Indian War Stick Technique. ”
After speaking, he asked rhetorically, "You seem to be using the same battle stick technique?" ”
Behind him, Giroba walked over with strange steps, stood behind the vengeful spirit, and said: "Setan is the spirit of revenge that I summoned the remnants of the Indian warriors to exist between heaven and earth, and his main consciousness is the former leader of the Apache tribe, Setan Bor, who once led the Lakota tribe and the northern Apache tribe to resist the invasion and plunder of the U.S. government, and is our hero. ”
Giroba stepped out from behind Setan and walked towards Luke unsuspectingly, judging by the situation, Luke could kill the helpless woman in no time as long as he had bad intentions.
But Luke didn't do it.
Giroba has a very perverted recovery skill [buy life money], she doesn't know how many lives she can buy with gold and silver, diamonds, and pearls, and Giroba appeared in front of him defenselessly, I'm afraid it's a temptation, once he dares to make a move, the atmosphere that has just been harmonious will disappear, and a big war is inevitable.
Giroba got closer and closer, until he came to Luke's side, put his hand on his shoulder, and said, "Little brother, there is probably some misunderstanding between us, I will discuss something with Setan, how about we talk about it later?" ”
Luke nodded.
With a wave of his hand, the surrounding mist rushed over, separating Luke from the two of them, forming two small worlds, and even if Luke enhanced his five senses with spiritual energy, he could not hear the conversation between Giroba and Setan.
He sensed the crows, except for the three crows who were enclosed in the [Heart-shaped Lake] field with him, the rest were already waiting outside the mist, and Harpier was constantly trying to bring his younger brothers in, but he still couldn't get the law right.
Old William was very good, fainted and slept sweetly, and no one came to disturb him.
On the other side of the foggy world, Setan asked eagerly, "Is he the prophesied white kid who brought a new future to the Indian tribes?" The child of prophecy who could bring the Indians back into the mainstream of the world? ”
Giroba didn't rush to answer, but thought about it seriously and said, "It's very likely, in the prophecy, that he will meet me in the Heart-shaped Lake in a crisis." ”
"Even though he's in Phoenix right now, he's really facing a big crisis. Although this crisis is us. Moreover, the [Heart-Shaped Lake] realm I summoned does belong to the Heart-shaped Lake. ”
Setan nodded, and said, "Sure enough, the predictions of the Sky Wise are so accurate and unpredictable. Each of us thought that the Child of Prophecy would come to the Heart-shaped Lake one day, but who would have thought that it would be because of our initiative to come out and meet it. If we hadn't made this trip, but had been waiting at the Heart-shaped Lake, I don't know if we would have met him again. ”
At the mention of the "Sky Wise", the frivolous expression on Giroba's face was also a little more solemn, and he sighed: "Who says it's not, the magic of fate is really unpredictable." ”
"Still." Giroba turned to Setan and asked, "Can you really let go of your hatred for the colonists?" ”
"I can't let it go," Setan still had an angry expression on his face, "but I'm the leader of the tribe, and it's all for the tribe." ”
At this time, thousands of miles away, in the Ojibwa tribe, a white boy who was struggling to practice the art of "the unity of heaven and man" suddenly sneezed, and then felt as if something had suddenly left him, and a feeling of loss came to his heart.
He felt it seriously, but he didn't get anything, he just thought that he was a little tired from cultivating "the unity of heaven and man", so he got up and went back to the room to rest.
Luke, the "Child of Prophecy", waited boredly in place for a while, and Giroba and Setan emerged from the mist.
The smile on Girroba's face became more sincere, she walked up to Luke, took out one of the ornaments on her body, handed it to Luke, and said, "Little brother, this is a gift for you, and as an atonement for scaring you." ”
Although Luke had already thought that the situation would ease up, he didn't expect the other party to put his attitude so low.
Although he still doesn't know the reason, he is not polite, and directly accepts Giroba's gift, which also means that the previous grievances are understood, and they will no longer pursue each other.
He glanced at the pendant in his hand, and it turned out to be an extraordinary thing.
【Eyes of Inspiration】
Pendants made from gemstones precipitated at the bottom of a heart-shaped lake can slightly increase the efficiency of "harmony between man and nature" or "meditation".
She is a rich woman full of jewels.
Although sensing the other party's kindness, Luke was still confused at this time, and he asked, "What happened?" ”
Although Giroba has determined that Luke is the child predicted by the Sky Sage, in order to avoid affecting his life trajectory too much, Giroba cannot tell him.
After all, in Indian legends, prophecies cannot be known by prophets until they reach a certain level of fulfillment, otherwise, they will lose their divine powers.
She simply said, "The modified Stick technique you used was an extraordinary fighting technique created by the Apache tribe, and now that the Apache tribe is dead, you are probably the only descendant of this Stick Technique." Setan and I want you to live, to carry forward this martial arts, and if there is anything else to look forward to, it is to be sincere with the Indians you meet. ”
Luke immediately swore an oath: "I have many Indian friends, like the shaman Lily of the Wapatoni tribe, we are good friends, and we often discuss the application of shamanic powers together. ”
Speaking of this, he showed the application of "breathing technique" in front of Giroba, and looked panicked as if he was suspected of racism, and then eagerly proved that "I also have a black friend".
Giroba stopped him and said, "I trust you. ”
Then Zhengse looked at Luke: "Now in the realm of the [Heart-shaped Lake], what we say cannot be perceived by the outside world, I have some important things to explain to you immediately, you remember." ”
Luke also looked stunned and nodded.
Giropa continued, "The person who let us kill you has the ability called the Seven Deadly Sins, and can grant the Seven Deadly Sins to others to increase their strength. Of course, for me and Setan, this improvement is nothing, but this ability to directly elevate ordinary people to the extraordinary is very rare. In the beginning, I just wanted to cooperate with him and add some trouble to the Phoenix authorities, which can be regarded as revenge for the crime of their robbery in Heart-shaped Lake back then. ”
"He also has a very strange ability, I can only figure out one thing, probably the ability to control people's subconscious and change people's thinking."
So sleepy, sleepy, with a baby during the day, code words at night, more tired on weekends than on weekdays, mainly because you can touch the fish code word at work, and you can't touch the fish with the baby.
It's really less than 6000 yards, 5000 words sent, and the code will be followed tomorrow.
