Chapter 717 Slick With Blood

As a hundred souls plummeted to their deaths in a rain of wooden debris, the four-arhedwith the rest… but, unlike most of the warriors on the broken shi+p, the devil had long grown accustohts After all, he had once spent a wholeinto the endless darkness of the Sky Below

Dissolving into the shadows, Sunny appeared on the deck of the nearest shi+p His sword flashed, ending the life of a Sun Legion soldier that stood in his way and sending blood spraying into the night air There was only aoff the shock of his sudden arrival… and so, he did not waste any ti forward, Sunny struck another warrior in the back with the Cruel Sight, slashed the Midnight Shard across the throat of an enemy archer, and wrapped his tail around the neck of a third soldier Sending the last one overboard with a powerful throw, he bared his teeth and briefly glanced into the night sky

Out there in the lightless void, Effie and Kai had hter the entire crew of one of the shi+ps and sent the vessel crashi+ng into the rest of the forirl jumped off the rails at the lastboth of theet

The shi+p where Saint and Night on it Everyone was already dead, and the vessel was careening to the side, ready to plualloped across the bloody deck and soared into the sky, breaching a gap of a hundredfearful Awakened on a different shi+p Saint's scarlet odachi flashed…

The Soul Serpent crashed on the deck of another flying vessel, the previous one he had visited breaking apart as it fell into the darkness Before the warriors could react to the appearance of the ghastly abo into a mass of liquid darkness Then, the darkness flowed into a figure of a ed from a lusterless, anthracite steel and decorated with intricate engravings The great sword of the knight rose and fell like a guillotine, severing flesh and bone

Sunny grinned

But, of course, that was just an illusion

The main reason for that was a simple but inescapable fact… that their reserves of essence were not going to last that long Every time Sunny used Shadow Step to travel between shi+ps, he wasted a big chunk of his… not tomultiple active enchant it, as well The Shadow Lantern was especially gluttonous

Every time Serpent killed an enemy, a small amount of essence flowed into Sunny's cores However, the for its own essence at a terrible speed — not only did it have to expend it totheir Abilities had a cost, too The Soul Serpent was not going to be able to keep it up for long

The second reason was that for now, the cohort had the element of surprise on their side As soon as the fleet realized as happening, taking down the shi+ps were going to grow much, much harder

So, all Sunny could do was deliver as e as he could, as fast as he could… and then hope for a miracle

Of course, with his luck, chances were that he would have to create thatanother enemy, Sunny threw his corpse aside and dashed toward the captain of the shi+p, hoping to slay him and sow discord in the coordination of the vessel's creever, this time, he failed to behead the snake with one swift strike — the officer of the Sun Legion that co ease, and then delivered a blow of his own, throwing Sunny back

An angry hiss escaped from his lips

'damnation!'
