Chapter 396: What I Planned IV.
Dean clearly felt two very different forces galloping and colliding in his body.
A chilly, vicious, like the roar of an evil spirit.
A secretive, huge one that he couldn't describe.
The former comes from the wound of the vest, and the latter comes from the 'Crystal of God', which holds the 'blood of the gods'.
The two were like enemies who didn't share the sky, and after feeling their respective breaths, they rushed towards each other frantically, like two crazy bulls, constantly colliding.
Every time they collided, Dean felt as if his internal organs were about to shatter.
Dean swore that the pain of such a collapse from within his body was no less than that of his role as 'living. Body. When it is real, there is less suffering.
However, it is precisely because of the 'live' that it used to be. Body. It was only a few seconds before he was able to recover from the paralyzing sensation of the pain.
The corners of his mouth turned up, and he turned to look at the female assassin who was close by.
The disbelief in the latter's eyes quickly disappeared, and he said in an extremely calm tone: "Even if you have a way to restrain the Dragon Slayer Dagger, so what? We're just going to do it again! Don't forget jì, I have the [Nine Death Methods of Stand-in], you can't kill me! ”
"The [Nine Death Methods of Stand-ins] that can't be killed? I just didn't find the trick! ”
Dean's smile continued, and the [Wind Thorn] in his hand stopped stirring and began to force downwards - the ribs and internal organs were cut off by Dean, and the blade of the sword slid out of the base of the female assassin's thigh, and with it a pile of red and green internal organs, which fell to the ground with a click.
"You want to divide me. Corpse? Come on! ”
The female assassin said disdainfully.
"No, no. It's not a dismemberment. Just limit your resurrection! ”
Dean smiled and shrugged. The long sword in his hand swept over the opponent's arms and legs.
Poof, poof......
The female assassin's limbs were detached from her torso.
Dean grabbed the other party's neck so that the other's head and torso did not fall to the ground, and he looked at the horror rising in the other's eyes, and the corners of his mouth turned up more and more.
"You've been showing in front of me that you don't care about life and death - this is very unreasonable, you must know that the rumored [Nine Death Methods of Substitutes] is just nine times of fake death! But from the first time we met, you assassinated me. How many times have you died? I don't think that a person who has practiced the [Nine Death Methods of Substitutes] will ignore life! On the contrary, they attach great importance to their own lives, otherwise, they would never choose such a secret technique! ”
Dean said slowly.
"No one would refuse a few more lives, would they?"
The female assassin's words were tinged with disdain.
"That's right, no one will refuse a few more lives, but anyone will feel sorry for the few lives they have lost, especially under the premise of a total of nine, this is inevitable, people themselves are animals who are greedy for life and afraid of death. You're no exception, and I'm no exception. But I have never seen in you the regret of your own loss of life - as if it were insignificant, so I have been thinking about what kind of circumstances can make you feel such affection! ”
Dean stared into the female assassin's eyes, his tone tinged with playfulness.
"I naturally need to fight for my life for the mission!"
The female assassin snorted coldly.
"Yes, every Assassin should do to work hard for the sake of the mission - but, equally, every Assassin will cherish their own life, they will never be like you! Believe me, I know the Assassins better than you think, and even what kind of mindset they have when they are on a mission...... And you're definitely not! ”
Dean shook his head, the palm of his hand gripping the other's neck tightened more and more, but the other party didn't seem to notice it.
"Hmph, it's useless! [Nine Death Methods of Stand-ins] so that I don't need to be afraid of death at all! The next time, the next time we meet, it's your time of death! ”
There was a hint of resentment in the female assassin's words.
"I don't think we'll see each other again--[Nine Deaths of Substitutes]...... No, I should say that it is the 'immortal' method, right? As long as one part of you is not destroyed, you will keep regenerating......"
Dean glanced at the other party with a slightly scrutinizing gaze, and at the same time, said slowly.
"Well, you can keep trying!"
The female assassin said indifferently.
"Oh, did I guess wrong? So, let's put it another way, let's say that your [Substitute Nine Death Method] is the 'immortal' method, then, it needs some processes or pre-settings to achieve the effect of 'immortality', for example...... The body you have at the moment must be completely 'dead', but there is something strange about your body structure! The internal organs were thrown out, the limbs were cut off, but the vital signs did not change in the slightest! By the way, you don't even feel pain, do you? ”
Dean loosened his palm, and then, slamming it again, the other party still did not change in the slightest.
"Can I interpret it as: Is this another trap you have planted? Ever since you showed your 'soul' in front of me, you've been misleading me that your body doesn't matter, it's your soul that matters!" You want me to start with your soul and give up your body for this great weakness of yours! ”
The long sword in Dean's hand began to cut through the body in front of him bit by bit.
Countless pieces of minced flesh began to fall under the sharp blade of the sword, and soon, the female assassin was left with one head, but compared to the others, this head was alive.
At least, she's still talking to Dean.
"Now that you've guessed it, why not do it? Get to know me, and you can have no worries! ”
The female assassin said coldly.
"No, no, if I understand you now, then it will only make you 'reborn' again and come to me for trouble-after all, this will activate the real [Substitute Nine Death Method]!"
Dean shook his head and said.
He could clearly see the pupils of the female assassin's eyes shrink.
"Looks like I guessed right! What you have always shown me, except for the first time in the Emerald Mountains, when I was killed, it was the [Nine Death Methods of Stand-in]. The rest is your 'immortality' method - in your own body. Transformed into a half-dead 'undead'. Then, combined with the [Nine Death Methods of Stand-ins], I have to say, you are really a genius...... Whether it is in the secret arts, or the talent of the school of the undead, it surpasses countless people! ”
Dean didn't shy away from his admiration.
“……”
The female assassin did not reply again, but chose to remain silent.
"From the first time we met, you've wanted to kill me - only. After being accidentally killed by me, you left a misleading message at the end: it made me think that you were just hired by the Ring of Morbius to delay me and consume my strength...... And actually, your target from the very beginning, it was me! After that, no matter how you appear in front of me, no matter what kind of way or look, you are here to kill me! After all, this is your trial mission! ”
"You think you guessed it all?"
The female assassin retorted coldly.
"Of course, I never thought I would have guessed it all - at least. I didn't expect you to find a helper like Colko. Use the other party's revenge to accomplish your set goal: kill me! ”
Dean carried the other man's head, turned around, and looked at Colko, who was vomiting blood and standing up not far behind him.
At this time, Colko's face was unusually pale because of Dean's previous bump, and the blood that vomited out of his mouth showed that his injuries were not light.
However, Colko ignored this, and his eyes went straight to the female assassin.
"Is what he said true?"
Corko asked the female assassin's head.
"You're just blinded by hatred, or you'd have figured out something was wrong! Or rather...... You've already figured out something is wrong, but you're willing to gamble? Dean looked at the other party, pointed to the turret behind the other party, and said: "Emerald Fort is His Highness's castle, and His Highness is definitely not a reckless person, to be able to blow up the city gate and drawbridge winch, I am afraid it has been your greatest effort for so many years - selecting reliable and loyal people to infiltrate the Emerald Fort and serve as guards, such a process has already made you haggard!" And about the battery...... It's definitely not for you or your people to get into! So, you teamed up with Gardis, because, she said, she's sure to get into the battery! ”
Colko was silent.
Didn't say a word, however, the silence of the other party was enough to explain it.
"You used to be acting, and you lied to me?"
The female assassin asked Dean.
"Each other, each other!"
Dean shrugged and replied.
"Zelgaon, do you think you've won?"
The female assassin shouted.
The voice was extremely sharp, like the roar of a banshee.
"Otherwise, what do you think?"
Dean replied.
The sound waves brought by the [Giant Roar] made the sharp roar disappear without a trace.
"Have you forgotten the Emerald Archduke and the Black Rose? They were led out of the Emerald Castle and out into the sea! Do you know what awaits them there? Let me go, and I'll tell you what I know about a qiē! Otherwise......"
Bang!
Before the female assassin could finish speaking, a shadow appeared in the sky, and then, quickly descending towards the main square of the Emerald Castle.
However, although the shadow was extremely large, it only emitted a small muffled sound.
Because, that huge shadow is grasped by the palm of a person's hand.
Under the moonlight of the night, the huge shadow was revealed.
It was a creature over a hundred feet tall and similar in width, and the long, far more than several times the length of its body. hand, it proves the identity of this monster!
Beast: King Squid!
The King Squid, which can devour three two-masted galleons in an instant, has always been considered a disaster at sea, and every encirclement requires a complete fleet with magic cannons to be able to encircle and suppress.
However, at this time, the king squid was pressed there by a fair-skinned, slender palm and couldn't move.
In the bright moonlight, the long golden hair shone faintly, and the emerald green eyes swept across the audience, and then, fell on Dean's body.
"Dean?"
A crisp and pleasant voice sounded with doubts.
"Your Highness!"
Dean bowed slightly, and then, he turned his head, looked at the head in his hand, and asked in a low voice, "You just said, otherwise what?" Sorry I didn't hear clearly, please repeat! ”
