Chapter 844 (1/2)
”Silent dream... Yes, Loren Turin uses all his ridiculous and shallow imagination to devise the most effective means against relying on the power of nothingness... Effective, but costly;”
”You're not a freak like him. Just the counterattack of void forces is enough to kill you. Needless to say, you have to fight the enemy on the premise of completely closing your vision and closing all magic spells;
A little better than suicide... Most people would rather run for their lives or commit suicide. ”
”So if you really intend to give up other high-level magic spells with higher cost performance and fill your narrow spiritual palace with the semi-finished products' transformed 'by this obviously different magic spell, of course I won't object, but...”
”... answer me truthfully. How determined are you?”
The recruits who fell into the darkness and quickly adapted themselves to the feeling of being excluded by the power of the void rushed to the position where the supreme king stood in their memory without expression; The sharp blades of both hands cut through the air without a sound.
Yes, it's just master Dalton kand's instruction.
”This spell is regional and will have an effect on everyone; so the first problem you have to solve is not to lose the power of emptiness, but how to face the darkness;”
”You will be afraid, you will want to escape, you will lose your mind, your heart will beat faster, you will have shortness of breath, your muscles will tremble, your limbs will be cold, and you will faint briefly - the only thing you have to do is restrain it.”
”The best way to restrain fear is to have deeper fear - recall someone you deeply fear, recall his voice and expression, imagine that he is right behind you; use trembling to keep you sane and a steady beating heart.”
In the bleak darkness, the recruits' backs cooled, and the cold touch pierced into their minds from behind; It was dark in front of me, but my consciousness was as sober as if I had just been stabbed.
The consciousness that runs wildly with the body seems to have returned to the training time of ”darkness” - no thinking, no preparation.
Close combat, in the next moment.
”Puff --!”
The silver sword in the recruits' hands was cut, and in the dark without light, it accurately split the corrupting devil in front of them; As soon as he turned around, he bypassed the enemies on both sides through the obstacles formed by the corrosion of the devil's body.
The next second, the recruits who kept walking pulled out the sharp blade with both hands and broke straight in the direction of the dwarf ”front” supreme king!
A steady stream of corrupting demons are still pouring into the king's Hall - they may fight on their own, they may be irrational, they may not have any order and discipline;
But their number is the biggest obstacle.
”Ah, ah, ah --!!!”
The roaring recruits showed no sign of stopping and even quickened their pace; Waving the sword blade in your hand to split the ”obstacles” in the way; But in the face of the enemy, there was no sign of evasion and charged at any cost.
The shoulder was cut off, the arm was bitten, the chest was badly hurt, and the foot nearly fell... The recruits who had been black and blue in just a few seconds, but with the advantage of darkness, they managed to fight a way out of the corrupting demons!
Closer and closer... Even if the eyes can't see, the recruits can instinctively feel... The distance between themselves and the supreme king is getting closer and closer!
”Then, if you overcome the simplest and most direct fear of solitude, the next thing you have to face is another problem that can never be avoided.”
”Inherent... Strength gap.”
The recruits, covered in blood, broke through the enemy like ants, smashed a corrosive devil's jaw with one elbow of their backhand, raised their silver sword and aimed at the position of the supreme king in their impression.
Ten, eight, five... Three.
Cut!
”Dang --!”
The sound of metal collision.
In the darkness, the tip of the silver sword was stopped by the Tomahawk again; Just a millimetre away, the sharp blade can penetrate the head of the supreme king once again.
But the difference is... This time, no second ”recruit” raided from the back to cover for him and strive for opportunities; The recruits who are in the dark and surrounded by countless enemies have no room to retreat.
In front of us is an unknown enemy; Behind him was a monster that could tear him to pieces.
There is no... Any way back!
”Do you think... With the light closed and the power of emptiness... I can be easily defeated as an old and useless guy?” the supreme king said faintly, and his voice became very strange because my throat was pierced by the secret silver sleeve sword:
”Like that fool just now... You underestimate me and the Lord of Yunling!”
”Compared with you races living in the sun, darkness... Is as familiar to me as at home!”
”Dang --!”
There was another sound of sharp blade rubbing, and the battle axe crossed the ridge of the silver sword; At the moment when he was about to hit the recruits' neck, the Mithril dagger in front of his throat stopped the axe blade at the last moment.
It's only a millimetre away.
”I absolutely don't mean to belittle you... The running dog of the evil god.” the recruit trembled with a deep breath and a crying voice:
”That's right... Alchemy bombs, secret silver weapons, high-level spells... These are not enough to defeat you; I'm not the Duke of Loren Turin, what I can do... Is too limited.”
”But now, under the power of the silent dream, your Majesty the supreme King... You are no different from our physical foetuses.” even if you can't see anything, the recruits with tears still stare:
”You who have lost the power of emptiness can be killed.”
”And I... Will kill you!”
In response to him, the supreme king gave a cold hum:
”Arrogance.”
”Ah, ah, ah --!!!”
With endless hatred in his eyes, the hysterical and roaring recruits swing their battle axes, pour their swords into their whole body and stab them straight forward.
Pooh!
Pus splashed, and the sword tip was stopped by the stabbed tentacle again and passed the target; Almost at the same time, a strange sound came from the chest of the most high king again; In the dark, the battle axe wrapped by the tentacle cleaved head-on with great strength!
”... even if you can really master this high-level magic spell with powerful effects and equally powerful side effects, the gap in strength is still obvious.”
At the moment of death, the recruits with the axe blade sliding across their cheeks heard Dalton kand's voice again:
”The force of the void... Different from the material world, follows the absolute principle of the law of the jungle - a strong force can absolutely suppress the weak side, and the probability of resistance is very small.”
”Even if you can distort the law, your weak and pitiful empty power is not worth mentioning in front of monsters and evil gods and Apostles... Similarly, the suppression of your 'dumb dream' is extremely limited.”
”Therefore, even if everything goes well, the probability that you can beat them should be...”
”... less than one in ten thousand.”
With the ”silent dream”, the energy is rapidly consumed, and the body is more and more obviously swallowed by the power of emptiness... I'm afraid I can't leave alive even if I'm not killed by the supreme king.
But... It doesn't matter.
As long as you can kill it, as long as you can end the war, as long as you can revenge... It doesn't matter if you can't go back.
Even if you break to pieces and drain the last drop of blood, you will die... And drag you to hell!
”Dang --!”
The silver sword that cut off the tentacle was stopped by the axe blade, but the supreme king in the dark also couldn't judge the exact position of the recruits, so he had to stop it by instinct.
But the recruit's left hand has another Mithril dagger!
At the moment before the tentacle climbed to the right arm, the recruits decisively loosened the hilt of the sword, squatted down and clenched the last sharp blade in their hands; The silver sword entangled by the tentacle has been waved to him from left to right with the battle axe.
