Chapter 179: The Final End
Flames erupted.
Ecovacs only felt a wave of heat coming over him, and then the armor on the surface of his body began to melt in the flames. The high temperature mercilessly burned the originally hard armor bright red and soft, melting and splitting like a candle. This is the fire of magic, the flame that Sharon burst out with all his might before he died, and its power cannot be completely ignored even by Ecovacs. In fact, Ecovacs didn't expect that Sharon would be so mad that he would rather fight for his own life than kill himself, so he didn't react at the first time. Unfortunately, it was too late, and the flames of mana gripped Ecovacs's body like a huge palm, so that he couldn't even move. He could only watch as the flames of magic broke through his magic armor and penetrated deep into his body, his skin was burned into pieces of charred black by the flames almost instantly, and then shattered and split, revealing the bright red muscles and snow-white bones inside, and then the flames rushed into it, and began to scorch the flesh and internal organs of the old man.
The pain caused by the flames of magic is far greater than ordinary flames, and they will burn not only your body, but also your soul. So even Ecovacs couldn't bear the pain so intensely, he threw away his sword and staggered back, but even so, the old man's eyes were full of determination, he gritted his teeth, clenched his fists, and opened his mouth.
“――――!!”
An angry roar erupted from the old man's mouth, and the next moment, a strong aura suddenly erupted like a whirlwind centered on Old Ecovacs. The magical flames that were still raging in Ecovacs's body just now were suddenly blown away by the fierce breath, and they were completely extinguished in the blink of an eye. And until this time. The old man snorted and fell to his knees. He was pale, gasping for breath. Although he made a quick decision and burst out his power to disperse Sharon's magical flames, Ecovacs was already running out of oil at this moment, and he couldn't fight anymore for at least a short time.
"Gala-la-la-la-........."
At this moment, a strange sound of metal rubbing suddenly sounded in Ecovacs's ears. The old general raised his head, gasped and looked ahead, and then he froze.
I saw in Ecovacs's eyes, in the world that became bright red again. A figure slowly walked out of the alley. It looked like a muscular man, completely naked on the upper half and tattered robes on the lower half of the ascetic. In his hand he carried a greatsword, and on his head was a large, triangular helmet made of iron. It makes him look unusually weird, but it's full of a certain indescribable beauty.
What the hell is this?
Looking at the monster in front of him, Ecovacs showed a wry smile. The pain from his body made it impossible for him to even move, and the monster's strength was so strong that Ecovacs could feel it. Although the other party had not yet reached the legendary realm, it already possessed the strength of the peak level of the master, and the aura of death and darkness emanating from its body rushed to his face, making even the old man can't help but squint his eyes.
If I changed it before. Ecovacs might be able to beat it. But now, Ecovacs, who has been injured by Yan zhòng, has completely lost his combat effectiveness, not to mention a monster at the peak of a master. Even a random insect could bite him to death. However, the old man obviously does not choose to give up because of this, on the contrary. He looked up and stared at the triangular monster in front of him. A helpless smile was revealed.
"Anyway, it's a warrior who appears in front of me..............."
Looking at the rusty, blood-stained blade in his hand, Ecovacs took a long breath, and then he stretched out his burnt-black arm and clenched the sword in his hand hard.
"Then, give me a warrior's rightful home!!"
At this moment, the old man shouted angrily, and then he raised his long sword and rushed towards the other party. Ecovacs clenched the long sword in his hand, and the sharp edge even faintly shone with pure white color. At this moment, the old man had put all his remaining dignity, glory and life into it, and for him, this would be the last time he attacked.
The sword qi roared by, and Ecovacs rushed forward, facing the tall man in front of him, and the long sword in his hand slashed forward with force.
Almost at the same time, the man in the triangular helmet suddenly grabbed the giant sword in his backhand, and then swept forward, bringing a howling wind.
The sword flashed.
The next moment, the old man's head rolled and flew into the sky, and his body stumbled forward a few more steps before he fell to the ground with a bang.
But the other party didn't even glance at the old man's body, instead, after finishing the killing, he turned around and walked into the depths of the bright red dark alley again, and it wasn't long before the huge, strong, dark figure disappeared again.
And now, in this bloody, dimly lit city, there is only one person left.
The old city lord stood quietly in the square, raising his head and looking at the sculpture in front of him. It used to be a statue of the first ruler of the Golden City, but now, in front of him, it was a statue of a boy. He was tied to a wooden stick from top to bottom, and the burning flames spread from the bottom upwards, engulfing the boy in it. The little face in the face of the flames revealed not the horror and uneasiness that people imagined, but the unwavering faith and solemnity. As if his own death was not something to be feared by him.
"That's where they burned Cliff."
The old man muttered to himself, the long sword in his hand stained with blood, and there were fragments of burning and decomposing monsters everywhere around him. Similar scenes were everywhere in the square, which showed how powerful he was. But now, the old man's expression was calm and serene, as if he didn't pay any attention to his current predicament.
"Evil is always a definition, and I've never understood why people commit crimes for the sake of unknowable evil. For them. Maybe it's just an incarnation. But for a father, the child is his whole world..............."
Said here. The old man sighed, and then he turned his head to look ahead. I saw it behind him. Jenn was standing there, staring at him.
"Maybe that's my retribution......... Thirty years ago, in revenge for those who swung butcher knives at my children in the name of justice, I unleashed the darkness that had been sealed away, turning the entire city into a capital of death. And now, it's time for me to pay the price. ”
"That's your problem, Mr. Hughes."
Jenn reached out, stroked the silver-white mask on his face, and smiled.
"I'm not interested in your past or the thoughts in your heart. For me, only your life is the only thing I need. ”
"Hehehe......... Of course I know, that's why I'm here, because I know you're going to come back to me. ”
As he spoke, the old lord shook his head, and then he raised his sword and looked at Jenn and Enoa.
"If you want my life, then take it!!"
Almost at the same time as the old city lord raised his sword. Jenn did it.
His right hand lightly slashed a circle in the air, and the next moment a thick and huge thunderbolt burst out of thin air, turning into a thunder snake and crashing towards the old man. The surrounding area was pale as the shining thunder and lightning shone brightly, and I saw this scene. The old city lord also frowned, he clenched the long sword in his hand, and quickly dodged to the side with a series of afterimages. But Jenn was clearly not going to give him that chance. I saw his right hand move slightly, and the next moment the thunder snake turned like this. Again he tore in the direction of the old man.
This time Hughes finally didn't dodge anymore, he stared at the thunder in front of him. The long sword in his hand stabbed forward quickly.
That sword seemed to pierce the heavens and the earth.
Jenn only saw Hughes unleash a sword, but the lightning in front of him quickly diminished and shattered as if it had been attacked several times at the same time. Seeing this scene, Jenn raised his eyebrows, but he didn't say anything, he already knew that the old man in front of him was not easy to deal with, and now that the other party had a certain heart of death, it was even more troublesome.
But for Jenn, it was just a minor nuisance.
In the face of Hughes's counterattack, Jenn did not hesitate to abandon the power of lightning, and then his right hand stretched forward, and with Jenn's movements, the pitch-black, seemingly inconspicuous cane appeared from the void again, quickly decomposed, combined, and then, the strange shape of the long sword appeared in his hand again.
"Magic weapons?"
Seeing the strange long sword in Jenn's hand, the old city lord's face suddenly changed slightly, of course he knew what the magic weapon was, but he didn't expect to see it here.
"You are ..............."
Sword light erupts.
Jenn stepped forward, and the long sword in his hand burst into hundreds of bits of light in an instant, spreading rapidly in all directions like a blizzard, enveloping the old city lord in it. And in the face of this overwhelming chill and sword aura, the old city lord also raised his sword again and made a blocking move upwards. Immediately afterward, a mutation protrusion.
"Bell Bell !!"
Obviously, Hughes only made a block move, but a series of fires suddenly appeared on his side. It was as if Jenn had hundreds of swords out at this moment, and he had resisted all of them at this moment.
The power of space?!
Feeling the breath coming from the sword, Jenn was stunned for a moment, even in the lower realm, the power of space can be regarded as a rather rare power attribute, although any high-level demon can summon and teleport to use the power of space on a certain range, but that is just instinct. There are very few people who can really have the power to manipulate space, and I really didn't expect to meet such a person on the main plane, which really surprised Jenn.
Originally, the reason why Jenn deliberately wanted to kill Hughes by himself was just to use his soul power to repair Cerberas, and Rose's Sage Soul was good before, but unfortunately no god would be stupid enough to send Sages down to earth to find trouble with Jenn. Right now, in the Golden City, this old city lord's power is the strongest, and the soul power is also the purest, which is the most useful for repairing the magic sword, so Jenn will take action himself.
It's just that he didn't expect the other party to have a spatial attribute, which really surprised Jenn. But fortunately, in order to prevent accidents, he had already disturbed the surrounding spatial fluctuations through the guò dungeon system, so it was obviously impossible for Hughes to escape here with his own strength.
If someone else were replaced, I would probably hesitate in the face of the power of space, but Jenn did not stop at all. Although he was slightly surprised in his heart, the movement in his hand continued, only to see that after his attack was blocked, Jenn did not retreat but advanced, the long sword in his hand retracted backwards, and then suddenly burst forward again.
"Boom !!"
The whistling sword qi completely penetrated the old man's defense at this moment, seeing the extremely strong sword qi, Hughes was also surprised, he had long known that the other party's strength was not weak, and in terms of swordsmanship, it was not inferior to himself, but he didn't expect him to find the weakness of the power of space so quickly, after all, mortals manipulate the power of space also rely on their own strength, the so-called one force to ten meetings, and now what Jenn has chosen now is the simplest and most brutal method.
Jenn is also a legendary swordsman, in the face of an opponent of the same level, Hughes did not dare to hold it up, he immediately withdrew the power of space, blocking in front of him, and the next moment, Hughes saw the long sword in Jenn's hand easily passed through his spatial shield and hit his blade. Feeling the power coming from the sword, the old man couldn't help but shake his body, but he still clenched the long sword and blocked Jenn's blow.
But at this moment, Hughes suddenly noticed that there was something strange about Jenn's right hand holding the hilt of the sword, it was not like he was gripping, but more like he was grasping something...............
Then he saw Jenn's index finger press against a raised arc of the hilt.
The black beam of light flew out silently from the gap in the magic sword, and in the face of this sudden attack, Hughes had no way to resist, he could only watch as the beam of light tore through his body and pierced his chest. Intense pain and a cold aura of death erupted in his body in an instant, slowing down the power in the old man's hands.
Immediately after, the pitch-black sword passed through Hughes's defenses, severing his throat. (To be continued......)
