Chapter XXIV: The Third Form
Alchemists are the most powerful.
Alchemists are the weakest.
If alchemists are given enough time, they can even build an invincible legion.
However, the alchemist's own strength is so weak that it is not much different from ordinary people.
Without the support of the puppet, the alchemist's combat power is actually quite low.
When Gong Hao said the words to kill you, Neil's face changed.
He quickly pulled a staff from his bosom and began reciting the incantation.
But unfortunately, not to mention that Neil himself is not a professional magician, and even if he is, it is impossible for him to engage in hand-to-hand combat with a samurai at such a close distance.
Distance is the foundation of a mage's life, and if he loses distance, no matter how powerful a mage is, he will become vulnerable, let alone an ordinary alchemy apprentice.
The Spike is launched.
Gong Hao kicked the ground with both feet, and his body approached Neil like a ghost, and smashed Neil out with a punch.
This thrust was a combat technique he had developed himself, and even Lancelot didn't know it existed. It's simple, but it's powerful.
Lancelot is right, the way a samurai fights is simple, one hit is sure to hit!
Gong Hao strode up, stepped on Neil's chest, turned to Fink and said, "Fink, if you're afraid, don't look at it." ”
"Do you have to kill him?" Fink asked in horror.
"Yes, he must be killed. Time is running out, Fink, I'll kill him and send you to the port. ”
"Aren't you going with me?" Fink asked.
"No, I'm staying, I still have a lot to do. I said I'm going to kill them all. ”
"But Neil is dead, and they'll kill you. ”
"No, they won't. Gong Hao smiled: "Because they will think that you killed him." Fink, are you willing to be my scapegoat?"
Fink looked at Gong Hao blankly and swallowed: "Yes, Xiuyi, I do." I'm dead without you. Even if I didn't kill me, they wouldn't let me go, would they? I'm not as smart as you, but I'm not unreasonable. ”
Gong Hao gently touched Fink's head: "Yes Fink." Well, time is running out, there aren't many monsters in the castle that I've released, maybe Pierre and they will be back soon. Solve the problem sooner and run for your life early. ”
Neil laughed at his feet.
He can even laugh?
"Gler, you've surprised me. Although I know that Lancelot once taught you vindictiveness, it seems that you are better than I thought. ”
"It's not a secret, it's just that none of you take it to heart. In your opinion, a samurai can never be an opponent of an alchemist. ”
Neil sneered: "Isn't it? No matter how powerful a warrior is, he is just a person, how can he be compared to great alchemy? How can it be compared to mysterious spells? Gler, you underestimate alchemists too much, you really have ...... Without the puppet warriors, I wouldn't be able to kill you?"
Gong Hao's pupils dilated instantly, and he was about to exert himself, only to feel a sudden feeling of boredom in his chest instantly spread throughout his body.
Neil kicked him in the chest suddenly, and this kick couldn't be avoided by Gong Hao's reaction.
He found himself completely out of control of his body, and a huge pain was coming from somewhere inside his body, as if it were ...... Something is wriggling.
Is it a spirit seed? the spirit seed that had been implanted in his body earlier!
Neil laughed and stood up, "I didn't expect that, Gler. There is not only one way to awaken the spirit seed, there is also a simpler and more direct way, which is to awaken it directly with a spell! This spell is not difficult, I can do it easily. However, it is a pity that the spirit seed awakened in this way lacks the supply of energy, and can only be a weak body after birth. But it doesn't matter, as long as it can kill you, it's nothing to lose a spirit seed. ”
"Do you feel a lot of pain in your stomach right now, and you can't use your fighting spirit? That's because the spirit seed is absorbing your life, and when it grows, it will come out of your belly. I don't even need to do anything to finish you off. ”
Neil's face was murderous: "Huy Glore, you still want to kill me? You bastard! I want to watch you die miserably!"
"Ahh
It was as if something was eating at his internal organs, the greedy, bloody, vicious dwarf, awakened and ready to grow by sucking on his flesh.
He yelled, "Fink, kill Neil!"
Fink looked at Neil in alarm.
Neil quickly turned to Fink, "Oh, yes, and you, Fink. I remember that you also have a spirit seed in your body. With that, he pointed his staff at Fink.
"No!" Fink shouted.
Neil said coldly: "If you don't want to die, run quickly, I can give you a chance to escape." ”
Fink turned around and ran.
"No, Fink, don't run! He's trying to scare you, he's not a real magician, and he may not have enough mana!" Gong Hao shouted anxiously: "Don't run, you'll die without me!"
Fink was unaware.
Gong Hao collapsed weakly on the ground.
Neil watched coldly as Fink fled to Taniguchi, muttering, "You're right, Huyglare, I don't have enough mana to cast another spell for the time being." If Fink had pounced just now, I wouldn't have been his match at all...... Your kick was so heavy. ”
He bent down in pain and spat out a mouthful of blood.
Gong Hao's kick full of fighting strength made him feel like he was falling apart, and he barely endured the pain to complete the spell.
He hurriedly took out a bottle of potion from his arms and took a big sip.
"Ahh
It's Fink's voice.
"Fink......" Gong Hao closed his eyes in pain.
Neil laughed again, "Are you sad for him? I don't understand why you're sad. You tried your best to save him, but he abandoned you. I thought you should hate him. ”
He laughed and coughed up blood.
"Why should I hate him?" Gong Hao asked rhetorically, holding back the huge pain in his body: "He's just a child...... He was afraid that it was normal. Anyone facing this situation would be afraid. He didn't want his body to be a breeding ground for the birth of a demon, he just instinctively chose life between life and death. Unfortunately, he was so scared that he forgot that he couldn't have walked out of this valley alone without the badge......"
Gong Hao didn't hate Fink, he fully understood that Fink didn't mean to abandon him. For Fink, what he had been through today was enough to make the kid go crazy. Not everyone has the same strong will as Gong Hao, in fact, the vast majority of people will choose to run away in this situation instead of taking the initiative to fight.
It's just a pity that those who flee often die faster than those who fight.
Gong Hao only felt regret, he regretted that he couldn't save Fink after all.
That was already his last friend here.
"And what about you? Are you afraid? ”
"Me?" Gong Hao looked at Neil with a smile, and both of them were slumped on the ground at this time, unable to get up.
Gong Hao shook his head: "I have nothing to fear. Even if it is death, I will drag the person who harmed me to die with me. ”
As he spoke, he suddenly pulled out a sharp knife and stabbed himself in the stomach.
"Magnetism!" Gong Hao could even clearly hear the terrible screams coming from his body.
It was a newly formed spirit seed that had been pierced through the belly by him, pierced into his body, and let out a scream of pain.
"No!" Neil shouted, he never dreamed that Gong Hao would dare to be so ruthless and knife himself.
Since the spirit seed could resist the search of the fighting spirit, Gong Hao had never been able to detect the existence of the spirit seed before. But when Neil used the spell to stimulate the growth of the spirit seed, he immediately felt the presence of a foreign object in his body, which no longer needed to use fighting energy.
After finding the direction of its existence, Gong Hao gave himself a knife without hesitation. This knife was of course a heavy blow to itself, but the most unlucky thing was the spirit seed that had just begun to take shape. This knife would be quite lethal to any infant form.
The thing howled desperately and wriggled in his body, sending large streams of blood flowing out of the wound.
What is amazing is that after this blood flowed out, it did not spread in all directions, but flowed strangely into the chrysalis that Gong Hao was carrying.
The large snow-white chrysalis was soaked in blood and emitted a strange light.
"What's that?" Neil asked, horrified. He was the first to discover the abnormality of Gong Hao's body.
Gong Hao didn't understand what was going on, but the next moment, the chrysalis suddenly exploded, and a golden light appeared, and before Gong Hao and Neil could see what it was, it actually drilled into the wound on Gong Hao's stomach.
Gong Haozhi felt that his body was overturned for a while, and he immediately returned to calm.
Damn it!
Gong Hao's heart was taken aback again.
He immediately understood what was happening.
That pupa even had a third form of dormancy.
And this form is nothing else, it is also parasitic.
After experiencing the two states of plant and pupation, this thing actually has a third parasitic state, which really surprised Gong Hao. Before that, he had never heard of any powerful demonic beast with three states of dormancy. Even the top-level twelve-level demonic beasts that are currently known only have two states of dormancy.
And at this moment, the two parasites started a battle for the hotbed in Gong Hao's body at the same time.
However, it was obvious that the original spirit seed in the body could never be the opponent of the new sojourner due to the heavy damage, so it was only in an instant that the spirit seed was destroyed.
After destroying the spirit seed, Gong Hao's body finally regained quiet, and it seemed that the new tenant in his body had also fallen into a deep sleep again.
Killed one, and another came, even Gong Hao felt that this kind of thing was simply incredible.
Thankfully, however, he was able to feel an overflow of energy from his body. This energy is not hostile, on the contrary, it is mending the inside of its own body that was previously destroyed by the spirit seed.
Gong Hao knew that this was definitely an act of tidying up the room made by the new tenant after moving. Presumably, it doesn't want its host to die early.
Anyway, in this way, I can survive again for the time being.
—————————————
Looking at this series of accidents, Neil was also a little stunned.
But the next moment he stood up laughing.
"Hue Igler, you're a good opponent. But alas, against an alchemist, you are doomed to failure. You see, I'm all cured with just a bottle of recovery potion, and what about you? What else do you have?"
Gong Hao looked at him coldly.
He was stabbed in the stomach, and although he couldn't die, the injury was definitely not light.
The new tenant is only responsible for cleaning the interior, but does not consider the storm and threats outside the house.
Maybe even if you think about it, you can't do anything, after all, it's still only in its infancy. It may be powerful for monsters that are also juveniles, but it is still weak for other mature creatures.
Neil continued, "What the hell is that thing that got into you? Looks like you've discovered a new species? Could it be some kind of magical beast that is dormant? It's so interesting. I'm going to hand you over to Mistress Pierre, and he'll cut open your body and study it. ”
As he spoke, he grabbed Gong Hao's collar: "You hateful fellow, you caused us to lose two spirit seeds. Do you know what a loss that is?!"
Gong Hao sneered: "I think I can do even more damage." Neil fell, Gong Hao leaned into Neil's ear and whispered: "You shouldn't be so close to me, fool, you must know that even if I am injured, I am still a samurai, a second-class samurai!"
He flew up and kicked Neil out again.
"Oh!" Neil let out a terrible hiss, and the kick wounded him again.
Gong Hao slowly stood up, he looked terrible at this moment, and his whole body was full of a terrible sense of oppression.
"Now, it's my turn to give you a chance to escape, Neil. He said coldly.
Neil didn't care about killing Gong Hao anymore, and ran desperately out of the valley, while he shouted: "Huygliel, you are dead, I swear you are dead! You are injured, you can't escape from Purgatory Island! I will tell Master Hines about it, and he will kill you with his own hands!"
"Ah!!h
With a final scream, everything fell silent again.
A smile appeared on Gong Hao's face.
He hobbled to the valley with the wound on his stomach.
There were two bodies lying there.
One is Fink's and one is Neil's.
Fink's body is pierced by the puppet samurai's heavy sword, while Neil's head flies out of his chest.
Neil's wide-eyed eyes clearly couldn't figure out why the puppet warrior would do something to him.
Coming to Fink's corpse, Gong Hao squatted down and gently closed his eyes for him.
"Fink, my friend......" He felt a sour feeling in his heart.
Despite his best efforts, he was unable to save Fink.
This was the biggest setback he had ever experienced since entering Purgatory Island, and he had also lost his last friend on the island.
Returning to Neil's side, he took out the bottle of healing potion from Neil's body, and after taking a few sips before putting it back, Gong Hao muttered, "Before you run away, you should check if you have lost anything, idiot." ”。
With a flip of his left hand, the badge that had been taken from Neil's chest at the time of contact fell to the ground.
He walked towards the small lake.
