874. Observing the Essence
To be honest, Lan En is basically doing his best to help Rosalia fight with the Shadowy Cultists right now.
On the one hand, the reason why I work so hard is that I have a good impression of the goddess who is obsessed with sorrow, but still maintains compassion and etiquette.
On the other hand, it lies in the . He's not gone yet! This group of secluded cultists wants to return the orderly world to an era of chaos and indistinction.
Who knows how far Eldridge can accelerate the collapse of the world order if he eats a god?
Therefore, out of affection for the goddess and resistance to the end times, he had to stop Eldridge.
Tugging at the Kirin's mane, Lane turned the horse's head after glaring at MacDonald and Louis one last time.
Rush towards the roaring Eldridge!
He didn't have time to spend with these two guys.
The two archbishops looked at each other, and they all broke out in a cold sweat, panting and swallowing.
The unicorn's hooves jumped up vigorously, and its excellent physical qualities allowed it to jump directly to the height of the giant's head as if it were pulling onions on dry land.
Lan didn't let the Kirin attack Eldridge's body together.
Because the black mud and dark power were also extremely difficult things in this occult world, he was not sure if the Qilin could withstand this pollution.
Therefore, he did not let the flannel ball attack Eldridge directly.
And just put the giant sword by his side and swept past the giant.
The blade of [Turbidity Current: Annihilation] easily slashed through the giant's skin, and opened a gap in the sticky black mud.
It's just that after the cut is finished, the eternal tyrannical and appetite breath on the [Turbidity Current: Extinction] suddenly stagnates.
It seemed to have never 'eaten' the black mud that made up Eldridge's body, so much so that it felt strange.
Not even the black mist-like dragon attribute energy was stimulated.
And after slashing a sword, Lan En also felt a strange feel.
Although these black mud were part of Eldridge's body, they were either knocked out of the main body by other people's attacks, or a large piece was gnawed off by Lanen's [Turbidity Current: Annihilation].
Eldridge's size never seemed to be smaller.
This black mud is just an outward manifestation of some kind of power, not his core?
Lan En guessed.
All of their attacks were as innocuous to Eldridge, and he couldn't even do it.
And right now, the gloomy sage who had just woken up from the coffin, hungry and thirsty. They couldn't wait to squeeze their heads into Rosaria's bedroom.
Can't put it off!
Lan En immediately made up his mind.
He has always been a decisive and calm person in times of crisis.
Gently patting the side of the unicorn's long neck, the ultra-small ancient dragon first pondered the information transmitted in his head, and then turned his neck in surprise and looked at the friend on his back.
"Huh?"
It snorted in confusion.
And Lan En just nodded quietly: "That's it." ”
Although the Kirin still didn't believe it, he still began to accumulate strength.
On the second-floor terrace, Leonard's battle movement became more and more messy, and as Eldridge drew closer and closer to Rosalia, their sanity became more and more scarce.
Begin a frenzied attack.
Pale blue lightning flashed across the horns of the unicorn with a 'crackling' sound that pierced through the air.
Its four hooves were also rubbing on the ground, and even the silk rune cloth that Margarita specially made to suppress static electricity fluttered on its own without wind under the strong voltage.
"Poof!"
Stuck at the upper limit of Lanen's body's endurance, the Kirin slightly freed up some of his speed.
Almost in the blink of an eye, like a bolt of lightning, the unicorn had leapt above Eldridge.
The thunder and lightning on its body even made its body look like a shining thunderball.
And Lanne, just then, jumped off its back!
[Turbidity Current: Extinguished] was carried on his shoulder, and his left hand pulled out Arondale again!
"Now!"
The witcher roared, and the Kirin responded.
"Wow!"
Huge thunder and lightning bombardment!
Just like the instinctive counterattack against the golden lion after being broken off the horns!
The wild and powerful current headed towards Lan En in mid-air!
The movement caused by this series of actions even briefly awakened Leonard, Klimt, and Maggots, who had lost their minds because of the threat to the goddess.
Even through the giant's body, which had been controlled by Eldridge, he squeezed through most of the bedroom doors.
It seemed that in this critical situation, the goddess, who was still indulging in her sorrow, raised her head slightly on the bed in the deepest part of the room.
The eyes under the black veil, through the gap in the huge door, just saw the jumping thunder, and
- The warrior who controls the thunder!
[Reed Celebrity: Thunder and Lightning Return]!
This is a technique that Lan En has only practiced, but has never used in real combat.
In the swordsmanship that has been systematized by Reed, this move seems to have no beginning or tail, no reason, and it can't be integrated into the system at all.
It's just that it is recorded as a local tradition in the secret book, and it is given the name of "Reed Celebrity".
It is rumored that the land of reeds has fought against the warriors of Yu Jiamei from the heavens in ancient times, and those warriors can use dance-like moves to warn thunder.
The swordsmen of Ashina developed a way to fight the thunder in the war.
In the face of thunder, his feet do not touch the ground, and at the same time, he wraps the blade and body with the technique of the airflow blade, wraps those thunders around, and returns them in the form of knife strength.
Both for [Thunder and Lightning]!
Since the Qilin's thunder can at least cause impact, then use this power properly!
The 'crackling' lightning struck the body accurately, and the control of the ancient dragon's natural power was beyond doubt.
And Lan, according to the techniques he had practiced, controlled all these powers above Arondaite!
The graceful arc of the blade, at this time, under the convergence of a huge amount of thunder, was almost a little transparent!
"Bang !!"
The thunder, which was originally quite fragmented, was gathered on a knife and then cut out, and those fragmented sounds have been combined into a huge explosion!
Mixed with this sword strength and thunder.
[Thunder and Lightning Return] directly cut a wave of black mud that erupted like a waterfall on Eldridge's back!
The giant's body has been severed horizontally from its chest!
Even the thunder that was controlled by the power of the knife left huge knife marks on the sturdy terrace after completely cutting off the giant's body!
Rubble is flying and dusty.
The maggots in the vicinity were all swept away.
But this is still only a prelude to a real attack.
In mid-air, Lan En's cat's eyes suddenly became deep and calm.
The black mud is just Eldridge's outward power, and if you want to strike at this disgusting guy, you must find the 'entity' he really cares about.
Therefore, it is necessary to use Vision.
Lan didn't really want to look at Eldridge with his [Vision] at all.
[Spiritual vision] is a deeper, higher vision.
And Eldridge, as the salary king who once continued the world order, and now this deep and terrifying power attribute, all make Lan En feel that it is not something that his vision can bear.
But now, it has reached this point, and there is no reason to cower anymore.
If you retreat and fear in battle, defeat and death are doomed.
Sure enough, just as Lane had expected.
As soon as he turned on his [Vision] to observe Eldridge, he immediately felt a feeling of excitement and motivation coming from his brain.
It was the evolution of the [Spiritual Vision] after observing the world and phenomena that were deep enough.
But at the same time, Eldridge's essence began to emerge in Lanne's vision.
That's a rich, innumerable aggregate of humanity!
Human nature has other definitions in other worlds, but in this world, there is something that actually exists in the human soul.
These things look like abstract little ghosts, fluttering and flickering.
But it was a deep bottomless black, and on the top of the head, there were two eyes that were large and small, and erratic.
Eldridge had eaten too many people, the undead, and these human beings were stagnant in his body, and it seemed that even the [Fire Transmission Ritual] that could continue the world, the first fire that burned could not burn them.
Dark, and incomparably deep.
Immediately, in addition to the instinctive joy of evolution produced by [Spiritual Vision], there was also the fear of being eroded by the darkness and gradually covered by the darkness.
This fear is almost instinctive in the bones, psychological construction, self-comfort. Completely useless.
It's like forcing Lan En to get to know a world with darkness as a tone, to know himself!
"Ah!!h
The witcher's mouth erupted with a roar of pain.
Lenn had never shown such intense pain in battle.
But even so, he still kept his eyes open and clenched the hilt of the giant sword in his right hand!
The skin of the Exterminator made a 'crunch' sound of being squeezed and rubbed in his hands.
If only pain and fear. So who do you think I am?!
The corners of Lan En's mouth hooked a fierce arc in the scream, tragic and wild!
In the end, from the large amount of black mud split by [Thunder and Lightning], Lan En accurately slashed the bone-white blade into the remains of many corpses buried in the black mud, a skull wearing a white crown.
Even though more than half of the body of the giant he was hosting had just been chopped off, Eldridge didn't seem to care.
However, as soon as Lan's greatsword touched the skull with the white crown, [Turbidity Current: Extinguishment] began to instinctively 'gnaw', and Eldridge let out the most painful howl since the beginning of the war!
"Whew!!"
The black mud that represented his body suddenly became solid, and then suddenly flowed like a madman!
Under the wash of black mud, Lan En, whose brain was dazed, quickly lost his grasp of the blade of the giant sword.
[Turbidity Current: Extinguished] was thrown out by the swirl-like sticky black mud, and even Lan En, who was holding the sword, smashed against the railing of the second-floor terrace.
"Lanne!"
Klimt hurried over.
And Eldridge, who seemed to be really hurt at this time, did not have the courage to ignore all obstacles just now.
Like a coward, all the black mud was wrapped up, and he didn't miss the second-floor terrace that he had attacked, and fell straight to the first floor of the hall.
The two archbishops, MacDonald and Louis, watched in amazement as the situation took a turn for the worse, until Klimt on the terrace called out to them and woke them up.
"Lead your master out of here!"
Klimt didn't even know where the crown had fallen now, and he held Lanne's body with one hand, his lips trembling with anger under his gray beard.
"Far away from our goddess! Get out! Take your believers out of the secluded church! ”
MacDonald knew that this was because there was no combat power and desire to fight above.
But their side is not optimistic, even the master is busy retreating as if he is frightened crazy, what else can the two of them do?
The two archbishops have bitterness and cannot speak.
Originally, Rosaria in the secluded church was a small dessert prepared by them before going to Ilusil to enjoy the main meal after they reactivated their master.
But who knew that this 'little dessert' on the way would break their teeth?
So the two archbishops could only hurry up and follow the master, who didn't care about dignity and face, and retreated outside the church.
"I—we'll go to Ilusil first, master! It's the 'table' where everything is planned, and Sullivan will entertain you, and it's just an accident. Accidentally! ”
"There's no need for us to waste time and energy here."
MacDonald stammered as he wiped the cold sweat from his potato-like head. Behind the wriggling mass of black mud.
And it wasn't until they had completely lost their mark in the eyes of Rosaria's followers that the three winged knights flapped their wings and landed on the second-floor terrace.
They surrounded Lane.
At this time, the witcher was unconscious, but even with his eyes closed, a thick black liquid continued to ooze from under his eyelids.
This is the price of seeing Eldridge's essence.
"We are going to bring him to the goddess."
A winged knight whispered in his helmet as he picked up the witcher's body.
The other held up his greatsword.
"It is the will of the Goddess."
Before Klimt could speak to Leonard, the Winged Knight stopped them from talking.
After saying that, he went straight through the crack in the door of the huge door, and walked to the deepest part of the room, the goddess on the bed.
