Chapter 17: The Bitter Battle

Of the three people present, Leonard can put others to sleep through poetry, Angel is familiar with Mrs. Sharon, and the "phantom phosphorus eruption" in her hand can easily find stealth targets, but the biggest threat to Mrs. Sharon is undoubtedly the "psychic" Dali who can manipulate the blue spirit body and burn the invisible silk thread she uses.

At the moment when the new "Phantom Phosphorus Eruption" reflected Lady Sharon's figure, she also launched an attack on Dali at the same time.

Angel didn't think that Dali could withstand the assassin's full blow, not to mention that the latter was still facing away from the enemy and was defenseless.

In desperation, she raised her hand and fired a shot at the attacking figure, while her body moved sideways, blocking between Dali and the attacker.

As Angel expected, the hurried shot was easily dodged by the attacker, but the block she formed with her body also made it impossible for her to pass through, so she had to turn to attack Angel, and the two fought together.

Even if it was close at hand, Lady Sharon's stealth ability was still in effect, and Angel could only vaguely see the outline through the phantom phosphorescent powder attached to her, but this undoubtedly had a very big impact on hand-to-hand combat.

Seeing the outline outlined by the light powder, he swung a punch at him, Angel stretched out his left hand to block, and at the same time continued to approach Mrs. Sharon with the gun in his right hand, preparing to shoot at close range and compress the opponent's dodge space.

Just as her left hand was about to block Lady Sharon, Angel's mind sank, and the "Assassin's" instinct suggested that it would be very dangerous to do so.

Without the slightest hesitation, she chose to trust her instincts, and immediately retracted her outstretched left hand, while the muzzle of her right hand was deflected and pulled the trigger at the very center of Mrs. Sharon's silhouette.

Bang!

The muzzle of the gun erupted and flew towards Mrs. Sharon with a bullet, but at this moment, Mrs. Sharon seemed to be pulled horizontally, changing the direction of travel at an incredible angle, avoiding the bullets that were fired at close range.

It also caused her to miss a blow to Angel.

The spiritual reminder is very correct, if Angel went to block the "punch" with his left hand at that time, he would inevitably be cut off by the dagger that was invisible with Mrs. Sharon, and at the moment of attack, the dagger with pitch-black flames appeared from the air, silently slashed past Angel, and then disappeared without a trace.

It seems that Mrs. Sharon did not really come to attack with her bare hands, but she chose a dagger that was more suitable for the "assassin" attack than a firearm that would make a bigger noise.

Although invisible weapons are difficult to defend against, as long as you see the shape and length of the dagger, the pressure on Angel to fight in close combat will be greatly reduced, and she is also an "assassin", even if the opponent has a higher sequence, she is fearless.

And she caught a glimpse of Leonard on the side, who had been rescued with the help of Daly, and was raising his pistol to aim this way.

Mrs. Sharon had apparently also noticed that Leonard, who had been trapped by the invisible thread, had regained his mobility, and her silhouetted figure quickly took a few steps back, one sideways to avoid Leonard's hastily fired bullets, while several black flames appeared around him, drawing a complex trajectory in the air and flying towards Leonard and Daly.

Unable to continue shooting, Leonard showed no less speed than the "Assassin", he grabbed Daly and rolled behind the couch to avoid the incoming black flames.

The black flame hit the fabric surface of the sofa like a bullet, but instead of igniting it, it quickly dissipated into the air, as if there was no illusion in this world.

Seizing the opportunity, Angel took aim again, firing the last two rounds of the nest at Mrs. Sharon's phantom phosphorescent silhouette.

The bullet was dodged by Mrs. Sharon, who also possessed the "Assassin's" ability to predict danger, and her dodge did not seem to exert force on her own, but was quickly moved by the invisible giant hand, and the two bullets hit the wooden partition behind her one after the other, creating two irregular holes.

The Invisible Giant Hand...... It seems that the silk thread that used to bind several people can also be used for mobile purposes......

Angel secretly guessed as she chased Mrs. Sharon with her eyes.

In this mode of movement, shooting at long distances is purely a waste of bullets. She shook off the pistol wheel and withdrew the empty cartridge case, and in her left hand dropped the temporarily useless lady's pistol, using the loader to quickly reload with new bullets, and Leonard was very cooperative to shoot Mrs. Sharon from behind the couch, but unfortunately the shooting was also ineffective.

Black flames reappeared beside Lady Sharon, and she raised her hand and waved, several black flames drifting towards Angel this time.

Angel knew that this black flame could not penetrate the object, she directly lifted the table next to her, letting the teacup and water bottle on the table roll to the ground, and she crouched behind the table, only listening to a few "poof" sounds, the black flame hit the table and dissipated directly, without causing any harm to her hiding behind.

It seems that the extraordinary abilities of the "witch" are too limited to compare with the "nightmare......

She crouched behind the table and thought wildly, when suddenly her heart tightened and she threw herself forward.

The position where he was a second ago had been pierced by a transparent ice spike that pierced through the wooden table, and the ice stuck on the wooden table, and the tip pierced the carpet directly, and bursts of cold air hit, making the surrounding environment like winter.

Affected by the cold, Angel felt that her movements had become a little sluggish, and she quickly left the wooden table that had been covered in frost with her hands and feet, dodging several black flames that flew like bullets.

Not far away, Lady Sharon was holding an ice spike that had spawned out of thin air in one hand, surrounded by more black flames than before, and was about to launch the next round of attacks.

Suddenly, the chaotic reception room seemed to be blown by a gust of wind, and the black flames surrounding the flight seemed to have been pressed the pause button, and Mrs. Sharon's waving arm froze in place, and a figure gradually appeared under the faint phantom phosphorescent pink halo that had gradually faded.

Unlike the graceful and touching Tingen courtesans that Cole Granger remembers, what appeared in front of several people now was an extraordinary person wearing a short-sleeved shirt and slim leather trousers, holding a black flame dagger in one hand and a frost spear in the other, her long and slender arms and beautiful face appeared an unhealthy grayish white, and her expression was angry and a little panicked.

Like the night watchmen who were confined by the invisible thread a minute ago......

Angel's heart moved, turned his eyes to look at Leonard who was hiding behind the sofa, and saw that he was also surprised, and then suddenly looked at Dalie Simone, who was holding the pendant and closing her eyes tightly.

It seems to be the masterpiece of this "psychic" again.

Angel was no longer distracted, she raised her reloaded revolver, aimed it at Mrs. Sharon, who was immobile and invisible, and pulled the trigger.

This time, Mrs. Sharon, who was imprisoned by the psychic, had no chance to dodge again, and the bullet hit her head accurately, the entire skull...... No, her entire body shattered like an ice sculpture, the shards melted into the air before they hit the ground, and the black flames that surrounded her lost their control, scattering in an irregular path, and extinguished with a "poof" after hitting the obstacle.

The huge decorative mirrors hanging on the wall next to them shattered and became shards the size of fingernails, some sticking to the frames and some falling to the ground along the wall.

It's a mirror stand-in again...... Angel's eyes quickly swept over the reception room, and found that there were several large or small decorative mirrors, and immediately raised his gun to one side, and smashed it with two consecutive shots.

"Be careful!" Behind him came Leonard's panicked and shrill roar.

There was no time to turn back, Angel pounced directly forward, rolled out of place.

The dagger burning with black flames silently slashed across Angel's previous position, and Lady Sharon, who was also shrouded in black flames, appeared behind her.

Her face had returned to normal, and it was clear that the effect that had restrained her had been lifted.

"The Black Flame has pushed the spirits back." Dai Li's reminder was long overdue, "Give me twenty more seconds." ”

In the corner of Angel's sight, Dai Li directly ripped off the crystal pendant on her wrist, clasped her hands together and held the pendant, her eyes became deep.

"Whoosh-"

Mrs. Sharon, who was about to continue the pursuit of Angel, didn't care about the target in front of her, and directly condensed a frost spear in her hand and threw it at Dali, who was channeling.

Angel hurriedly shot the remaining bullets from the nest and accurately hit the frost spear in the air, and the powerful "Storm Convergence" tore through the ice and shattered it. A few pieces of ice slag grazed Daly's body, and she didn't move, as if it was just a summer breeze skimming her face.

"Reload!" Angel shook off the revolver's nest and began to change the bullets, and Mrs. Sharon seized the opportunity to take two steps forward, the dagger dragging the black flame stab.

Bang bang bang –

Leonard fired several shots from the side, forcing the menacing Lady Sharon back.

He knew that the most important thing now was to buy time for Dali to regain control of Lady Sharon through the spirit, otherwise if it continued to be consumed like this, once the bullets ran out, several people would have no means to deal with her.

In order to contain Mrs. Sharon, Leonard rushed out from behind the couch where he was hiding, quickly pulled the trigger, and emptied the bullets in the nest in one go.

Mrs. Sharon used the invisible spider silk to pull her body as before, and quickly swam away, avoiding all bullets, she looked at Leonard who rushed towards her, her brown eyes flashed with a trace of disdain, and under the wave of her snow-white arms again and again, Leonard in the charge froze for a moment, and the windbreaker outlined obvious lines, and was once again entangled by invisible silk threads, and her movements became difficult and slow.

Mrs. Sharon brandished her dagger and was about to strike a blow at the man who was overwhelmed, and her face suddenly changed, and she was pulled by the silk thread and moved laterally, avoiding a bullet from the corner of her sight.

"Tsk."

The sneak attack failed, Angel couldn't help but be a little anxious, Mrs. Sharon also has the combat instinct of an "assassin", coupled with the control of the invisible silk thread, even if she sneaks up from behind, Angel can't hit her at all. The battle has been fought so far, and the bullets have been changed twice, and apart from hitting the mirror double, Mrs. Sharon is unscathed.

Only by allowing Daly to complete the channeling, let the spirit control Mrs. Sharon, and then smash all the mirrors in the vicinity to prevent her from using a mirror double, can there be a chance to kill this extraordinary person with endless life-saving methods.

But how long has it been since twenty seconds? Seven seconds, or eight seconds?

The thoughts flowed in her mind, and Angel didn't stop in her hand, pulling the trigger with a gun, so that Mrs. Sharon had to dodge in all directions.

Bullets kept flying past Mrs. Sharon, although she couldn't hit her, but she didn't have time to condense black flames or frost spears to attack, seeing that time passed by seconds, Mrs. Sharron's face sank, and she rushed directly towards Angel.

With a "bang", Angel accurately hit the panicked Mrs. Sharon, but the sound of the mirror shattering again made her understand that she had been fooled again.

"Dali!" Angel knew that something was wrong, and hurriedly reminded her, she looked at Dai Li's direction, and a looming figure appeared next to Dai Li, and Mrs. Sharon, who was using a mirror stand-in, appeared out of thin air, still holding the dagger that burned black flames, with a triumphant smile on her face.

Dressed in black, Dai Li still had her eyes closed, her hands clutching the pendant, as if she didn't know that danger was approaching.

Angel did not hesitate to raise his hand and shoot, but only the crisp sound of the hammer hitting the primer came out, this large-caliber revolver could only hold five rounds, and the one that smashed the mirror double just now was the last one.

A breeze blew through the crowd, as if someone had hurried by, Angel shivered, her thoughts stalled, and she picked up her spirits and looked back at the positions of Daly and Mrs. Sharon.

"Psychic" Daly reopened her eyes, her deep eyes returning to a jewel-like turquoise, and the skin of Lady Sharon beside her had reappeared the unhealthy gray of before, and the raised dagger stopped in place, unable to swing it.
