Chapter 357 Off-field attention

 Eyeballs and ridges,

 blood sword and tentacles,

 Death and war horses,

 The three of them fought to the death in the pit. Since most of the attacks were highly destructive, the depth of the pit continued to decrease.

 The vertical height has reached the bottom of the mountain from near the initial mountainside. This small hill even looks like a volcano from the outside.

Yi Chen has always maintained a "free state" in this battle.

Due to the lifting of restrictions, the main attribute [Physique] was temporarily abandoned, causing Yi Chen's body to become extremely thin, estimated to be only thirty kilograms.

 Many useless bones have been shaved off and replaced with cortex, and the iron chains have been minimized and stored between the brains.

at the same time,

 Use the physical skills learned from Teacher Zed to predict the next move by sensing and capturing various data of the opponent's physical body.

And the "Nebula Body" learned from Deslin.

Every time an ax strikes, or a death ray is sprayed from under the black wolf's helmet, or a death horse attacks, etc.

Yichen can predict in advance, thus keeping distance in advance to minimize risks.

Due to the limited space between the pits, he would occasionally fall into a passive situation. An attack that seemed sure to hit would be dodged by Yi Chen after a burst of stars flashed by.

The whole person is like an erratic yellow robe, difficult to capture and locate. It seems to be in it, but it seems to be floating outside.

 While maintaining the "free state", continue attacking with the eyeballs hanging behind you.

One of them, belonging to the eyeball collector Gemhar, is fully activated, and the evil eye ray it shoots is extremely threatening. The remaining three unactivated eyeballs are less powerful and serve more of a misleading role.

 Jin’s style has also changed,

Although it is still a broad-based fighting style, it has become more delicate internally.

Although this delicacy will take away part of the lethality, it can allow the cancer cells in her body to be arranged neatly, optimally output energy, and fight head-on against the dead of the old world for a long time.

Since the tumor tentacles are difficult to cause damage, they are mostly used for assistance, such as shooting to the ground or wall aside and dragging the body to move quickly.

 As for their opponents,

  Bart, the desolate knight who was completely transformed into a beast, relied on his purest animality and honed fighting instincts, ignoring the impact on the spiritual level, and turned into a berserker to face the two men without losing.

 The dead horse under his command is also affected by the madness of his master.

The horse's body turns into thick fog and hides in the environment. Sometimes it rushes out from different directions, sometimes it emerges directly from the ground and attempts to devour living enemies.

Even if you can capture the position of the horse by capturing the flow of the death fog and dodge in advance, it will disrupt your own rhythm to a certain extent.

 The situation is deadlocked.

Regan at the bottom of the mountain also noticed this and immediately retracted the magnetic field barrier into his body.

“In order to avoid the mental influence brought by William, the other party directly erased his own rationality, and then closed his vision with death. In this way, he will naturally not run away, but will fight until one of the parties is completely dead.

　　Hey~ The original plan was for me to provide support on the sidelines. I didn’t want to take the risk. Now I have to go down and help.

 Faye, when the time comes, just stay with me to defend and counterattack. There is no need to take the initiative. "

Ms. Fay's tongue, which was shaped like a telephone, was close to her ear and she replied: "Okay~ I will only protect you."

Just as Reagan ran as fast as possible to the top of the mountain, and was about to approach the edge of the pit, a strange feeling came from above his head... The moonlight that originally covered the mountainous area all disappeared, and darkness fell.

 Looking up,

Unspeakable thick black fog condensed in the sky,

　　It was rolling and churning, and you could even hear the screams and roars of the deceased coming from deep within the bones.

Suddenly, a jet-black lightning struck down from the black mist. Regan was so frightened that he stepped back, his force field fully activated.

It's just that the thunder was not pointed at him, but fell deep into the pit, toward the dead man from the old world... Some deeper death changes occurred in him.

 Wait until Reagan stepped forward and stared down at the edge of the pit.

 Ah~ah~

The faint chorus of human voices actually lingered in my ears, including deathly silence, mournful screams, and a few manias.

“[Epic Sound], although it is very shallow, it does exist.

 Such a rhythm can be produced in the open source stage, which must be because the [personality] has begun to change. Once this battle is over, he will be promoted and reach a higher level than open source. "

 Reagan looked at the sky again, staring into the depths of the black mist,

He seemed to see an ancient and deep cave, an old city built with bones as the basic material, an army of the dead shrouded in hoods and wearing skull masks.

As well as being located at the deepest level, it is the first "complete death" of the old world. Because of his death, the old world had the concept of death.

 Cold sweat slid down Reagan's face,

Although what Reagan saw through the black fog would not come here and would not pose a direct threat to them.

 But since he can see this scene, it means that [Original Tomb] is also watching what happens here, watching the three humans who dare to challenge death.

“If we defeat the deceased who is suspected to be a knight, our names will most likely be on the ‘hunting list’ of the original tomb… Once we enter the old world, we will be hunted down by the Death Plague Knights.

 When the world share of the Gray Domain reaches 100% and world assimilation is completed, we will have nowhere to hide. "

 Reagan gritted his teeth. The last thing he wanted to do was to put Fay in danger.

"No...I must use my mental power to forcibly cut off the battlefield and take Yi Chen and Miss Jin back to Zion."

at this time,

Faye, who was already self-aware, put her tongue against Reagan's ear, and the sound of the radio went straight into her brain, "Regan~ Do you remember our previous encounters? It was because she wanted to avoid danger that she escaped from the village in advance and fell completely into the gray zone. .

Since the other party is watching here, even if we escape, we may still be marked and hunted, right?

It’s better to prove our strength to the other party, and you also have your own organizational group in the old world. Even if the Death Plague Knight wants to hunt you down, it won’t be that easy, right?

 William and Miss Jin each have different forces to protect them.

How about we try to face the danger this time? Maybe there will be a different ending.

I've already died once, and I don't mind dying with you, Reagan. "

 …

 Deep in the mountain pit

The reason why the gathering of death fog, the falling of black thunder, and even the original tomb's attention is precisely because of some changes that are taking place in the trainee knight Balt, some changes that are enough to obtain formal qualifications.

 During the battle,

In order to reduce the risk of injury, Yi Chen condensed his own death attribute between his eyeballs and shot a completely different death ray, which directly penetrated the galloping horses.

The horse of death, which was already scarred, suddenly suffered an unexpected penetration, and was even devoured and suppressed at the level of death. It fell to the ground and was dying on the spot.

The irritable and restless Bart actually calmed down at this moment and walked slowly towards his horse.

Jin and Yi Chen, who had been engaged in high-frequency combat, finally had some time to breathe. They hurriedly replenished their physical strength and adjusted their status. The entire mountain pit battlefield became quiet.

As a dead man, Barthes did not feel any fatigue,

 He gently stroked his former companion who was disappearing, and something at the level of consciousness was changing... Suddenly, he raised the spine battle ax in his hand high and slashed it down.

 The horse's head was beheaded, and black thunder descended.

　　Boom!

 The billowing black smoke rose up due to thunder and wrapped around his body.

The faint chorus of human voices sounded in the environment,

 By the time the black fog cleared, the war horse had disappeared.

Bart stands alone in the center, with black armor and weapons wrapped around his body covered with black thunder and lightning. At the same time, there is a black horse head and shoulder armor made of bones on his right shoulder.

The brass frame hanging above his head has a little more silver.

 The liquid value of the disease that was half consumed before has now been completely replenished.

Yi Chen took a deep breath after seeing this scene, and then said: "Jin... take out all your cards. Facing such an enemy, we must have no reservations, otherwise we may die here."

"Um."

 After getting Jin’s response,

 Yi Chen clasped his five fingers on his face and pulled it down... "dead man's makeup" started.
