Chapter 20: Procrastination
It's a wonderful feeling to walk on the bones, especially here, where there is no light at all, but here it is the dark red light that illuminates the place, which is very uncomfortable. Probably because of these bones, the creatures of hell were gradually decomposed by the earth, and naturally they were not used to it at first, and there were still so many corpses piled up here for thousands of years.
Cautiously, paying attention to his feet, John prevented slipping, there were not only corpses here, but also angels' broken wings, and just squatted down to investigate, he heard the screams coming up from the well, and he hurried over.
"What's going on?" asked John.
"I don't know, Sister Nana suddenly pushed me down"
I saw Nana follow behind, she landed gorgeously, and saw the two of them yelling, "Get out of place!" and then she ran away.
Instinctively believing in his teammates, John pulled Swana and left.
With a clang, Santania landed through the entrance and shook the surrounding corpses into the air, and the bone fragments rained down, and John blocked Swana's face with one hand and his own with the other, preventing the bones from hitting his face.
Spirling and waving the spear in his hand, Santania looked around, it was the Battle of Mount Sinai, how young he was at that time.
"John, take Swana to draw the formation, I'll hold him back. β
Grabbing Swana's hand and continuing to walk inside, she was still in a state of blindness, not knowing what was happening, just following along.
"Swana, I know you don't know the situation right now, but I'll explain it to you later"
Take out a long and short 'silver moon', long in front and short in the backhand.
"That was you, human, dodging my holy spear," the wings behind him flicked, and the feathers scattered in the air slowly fell.
"Church? It seems that as Furren said, Lisa's memories have been probed and we have no secrets. β
The next road may be even more difficult to walk, and I want to take Swana to travel more, she will definitely not listen to us and just stay here, and want to follow us, now I think that John is very smart to just say take here, and then let her leave, but here it is obvious that this is not optimistic, how to defeat an angel this time?
The angel in front of him looked at himself, he was as tall as Fren, probably a possessed human, was it useful to burn the flesh?
Fren said that he had a certain self-healing ability, and how much temperature he needed to be greater than his self-healing ability, and he was not like Fren who couldn't use that kind of magic.
Strange to say, Fren can be said to be able to use almost every kind of magic, no one has ever done such a thing, and the people we call sages are just people who have studied a kind of magic thoroughly, and there are no generalists in the field of magic.
Carefully moving his pace, slowly approaching the enemy, this angel is very leisurely, approaching like a leisurely stroll, everyone has a different mentality for battle.
The angel is a veteran, and Nana has barely fought a few life-and-death battles......
But she still chooses to hold time for her teammates, she can choose to sacrifice herself to achieve the success of the mission, and if this formation is successful, then success has already beckoned to them.
There are still ten or so steps, the angel strides forward, puts his hand on the end of the gun, and maximizes the range of attack, this is the advantage of the long hand, such a large potential energy, it must be impossible for an ordinary human female to bounce away, see how she copes.
Spear thrust, Nana has no choice but to dodge, how to get close is the key.
She dodged to the left, and the spear had to shoot into the air, slowly retracting.
It is true that he has no extraordinary strength and ability, but the reaction just now was very fast, was he mistaken? The woman in front of him may just be an ordinary person. Santania wondered if she had found the wrong person.
The wings flapped into a hurricane, lifting the bones on the ground to obscure Nana's vision, so as to quickly approach forward, spear in hand to stab the heart to end the fight.
Nana spun her twin knives to disperse the flying bones, and watched Santanis approach, quickly idling back, her hands still not stopping. The angel did not give up the idea of approaching, and stabbed three consecutive shots in close quarters, up, middle and down.
Like a dance, Nana placed 'Silver Moon' on her waist and began to spin, dodging Santanis's triple blow, approaching him with a twist of attack, swinging her backhand and cross-swinging backhand, dancing to slash the angel's flesh.
As long as he slashes this body, even if there is even a drop of blood, he can curse him, this is the purpose of Nana's thoughts, but now the angel has blocked almost every blow from her, without mercy.
In the last move, Nana spun her twin knives and jumped backwards to open up the distance, recovering her strength, and the continuous slashing was really unbearable. But the retreat can't be in vain, she is a hunter, and when she retreats, she lays down a few traps and waits for the enemy to pursue.
Knowing whether it was stupidity or bravery, Santanis resolutely chased after Nana, but was injured by the burst bottle she dropped, and last time Furon said that he had injured the angel with an alchemy bomb and had not healed for a long time. This effect is small but it cannot be said that it has no effect, he is injured, and it is under his own props.
Swana, who finally reacted, stopped, and John found that he couldn't pull her, and looked back at her.
"How can you abandon Sister Nana, she is still blocking the enemy. β
"Just trust her to be fine, we have more important things to do. β
"What is more important than a person's life?"
"That's the purpose of our trip!" John solemnly declared, a mixture of honor and mission that comes with the mission, and he continued, "Is there anyone else who can help her but me?"
It did make her more sober and understand a lot, she was not an arrogant person, and there was no such rule in her own family tutor, but she couldn't understand the true identity of Mr. John in front of her, what did it mean, and the purpose of this trip? Aren't we here to explore? There is danger, but it will not abandon her companions. But now I have to accept it, because I promised to listen to them, and they really didn't hurt her along the way, and the first meeting was quite friendly.
"I see, Mr. John, that you must help Miss Nana when you are done. β
They continued to go deeper, and they also paid attention to the formation drawing, fortunately, they were ready, and they could start drawing immediately, but Nana couldn't hold on for that long, she hadn't experienced too many battles, and although she was strong, she didn't have much experience.
"Swana, I have something to teach you as well. John was going to let her come and draw, a beginner, emergency emergency treatment.
"Weak!" Nana had successfully cursed Santania, and the angel felt the body go limp, unable to move, and fell to its knees to rest.
However, before he fell, he threw a shot, the same as the one that fell from the sky, and it was so powerful that it could easily take the head of the enemy general. Nana is still raising her hand and cursing Santania, but it is too close to cancel, and canceling herself will also be counterattacked. In the face of the spear projected, he could only dodge it with his waist, but the angel threw it too fast.
Brushing past her waist, she heard only the sound of the tip of the spear rubbing against the iron, and Nana's right side of her clothes was shredded and fell to the ground like rags, and she was wearing chain mail, without which her intestines would have been pulled out.
This is not ordinary chain mail, this is a birthday gift from his own special alchemist, it took 3 years to build, it completely fits his body structure, and every chain lock on it is a rune carefully carved by the Magic Association to make it stronger, which is all requested by the alchemist.
After the curse was completed, Nana was now disheveled, took off the clothes, revealing all the chain mail, in fact, there were also in the pants she was wearing, it was a whole clothes, fortunately it was just a long-distance projection to pass by, Nana felt that this dress was unlikely to block the stabbing of all her strength.
Santania is now wrapping herself in holy light to ensure her own safety, there is still a certain amount of time to dispel this curse, and her own projection has failed, I didn't expect the enemy's equipment to be so good, it is an ordinary person's opinion to retract it, and you have to be more serious, and it is necessary to take this lesson seriously.
Taking advantage of the angel's rest, he made a few simple traps out of the bones in the scene and put them in his position, just waiting for him to get up and launch them instantly, which didn't hurt much, but it was disgusting enough.
Once Santania had completely purified the curse and stood up, Nana fired a bone trap that partially stuck into her flesh and her wings blocked most of it.
He reached out and withdrew the spear into his hand, ready for the second round of duel, and after a few dodges, he was very close to Nana, and stabbed several times in succession, Nana's face was cut by the sharp head of the spear, and there was also a part of the neck that did not have chain mail. She didn't react at all, and realized the gap in strength, in the face of this enemy, maybe she should run away, not completely prepared, but there is John behind her who is working hard, and she can't give up.
She had told John that she was going to hold it with all her strength, and that her teeth would bite the enemy's ankle.
"Have you memorized everything? What kind of materials and whatever, then I'll leave it to you, follow this picture. John handed Swana a drawing, and the materials were placed in the open space here, which was a big project.
"Remember, Mr. John. "Swana has some confidence in her memory, and it should be no problem just following the pictures.
Drawing his own acilleroe, he wanted to use this formation to kill another self, it seems that God is not willing to let him do this, but unfortunately, it is the most important thing to help Nana now. John turned himself into a cloud of light and rushed forward.
At this time, Nana seized the opportunity to get close to Santania again, the angel's sweep was dodged by her lower waist, cut the inside of his right thigh with a short knife, quickly moved to the back, and used magic to draw a new curse on his back, this time aiming at the spine of this body, and then moved to the left, a side kick kicked to the place where the curse was just placed, Nana's shoes could pop out a knife, the wound was broken, and then began to retract inside, this time using the angel's feathers, but not the current one, but the angel who died on the ancient battlefield, the feathers on their folded wings, the angel feathers without death have a powerful magical possession and cannot be controlledγ
Some feathers flew like sharp swords to the wound on her back, and Nana's wound on the inner thigh just now also began to bleed profusely, after all, this is a human body.
If it is an ordinary human enemy, then he will definitely die, but unfortunately it is not a human being here, even if it is fatal to humans, they can recover in an extremely short time, I really don't know how the original ancestor became the strongest between demons and angels.
The Holy Light turned into a giant hammer and hammered at Nana, once again knocking the bones into the air, and again, Nana did not react, and raised her twin knives above her head to resist the blow, and the ground sank hard, but she was not smashed into flesh, and every iron ring on the chain mail was glowing.
The runes on it worked, but his strength couldn't last long, and a light suddenly appeared, it was John, and the thin sword stabbed straight at the handle of the giant hammer, directly dissolving the holy light giant hammer.
His thin sword had a glazed glow, and Nana's physical strength felt hollowed out.
"I thought it was over, but fortunately there were teammates. β
"Hurry up and recover, my swordsmanship is not as good as Liu Kainan, I need your help. β
The angel no longer possessed the death row inmate, but revealed his true body, and the gun, which was originally only turned into a holy spear in the moment of throwing, was now permanently transformed into a holy spear. Coming out of this death row inmate's body, Santania felt free like never before.
"The human world, it's been a long time, and I want to thank you, ma'am, if it weren't for your curse forcing me out, I wouldn't have experienced what it was like to be physically present for a long time. β
The death row inmates behind him had been reduced to a mass of charcoal, and there was another corpse here. John flew towards Santania around a ring of light spears, and he followed closely behind, and the ontological Santanian wings were larger and more useful, possessed on humans and could only be used to fly.
Every feather can be used as a defense, and each of John's glowing guns is easily blocked by feathers, rich in powerful magic to counterattack him, and the assault has to be stopped, and the key is to wave the rapier to block the energy wave of the attack.
Dodge left and right, spin the thin sword in your hand, use this light magic as a barrier, block all attacks, the angel's wings are no longer the power of the condensation of the holy light, but the magic exists in its most primitive form, full of energy and plasticity, and it may become the possibility of other magic at any time.
Nana's physical strength is slowly recovering, she thinks about whether she can learn from Liu herself, use runes and forget it, anyway, her magic is only used to prepare for battle, otherwise it is not suitable for encounters, she moves her shoulders, maybe she can learn Fren's combat skills.
She jumped over John's head and crossed her swords, she really doesn't know any elemental magic, but the simple warrior flow method is still good, this technique is developed for some warriors who can't magic, basically can, but it's difficult to use mastery. Unleash your sword qi and slash at Santania.
