Chapter 142: Chapter 136: Gruesome
Aaron’s body, bisected by the monochromatic water light, collapsed on the ground, bleeding profusely with his entrails strewn about, his eyes gradually losing the look of disbelief.
The reality of the battlefield is such, death can occur at any moment, and aside from Irene, everyone from the Fischer family turned pale.
One after another, monochromatic water lights shot from the hillside to the top of the mountain, skimming past everyone, and then, like wheat being harvested, person after person fell to the ground.
Their bodies were instantly split apart, whether it was armor, weapons, or shields, none could withstand the force of that monochromatic water light.
Any object touched by the monochromatic water light would be cleaved in two, with no exceptions as far as the eye could see.
“Transcend!”
Byrne was frantic, the purple-red stone yielding no response. Even though his Spiritual Power hadn’t fully recovered, he immediately activated the rune power of “transcend.”
He fixated on each monochromatic water light that came his way, his mind racing with analysis, and soon he shouted out his thoughts:
“Keep moving, never stay in one place, neither seeking cover nor hiding will help!”
Hiding proved fruitless because even the trees and rocks on the mountain top couldn’t block the monochromatic water lights; anything they touched would be split in two.
On the hillside, everyone could see a figure composed entirely of water, the water being floated calmly mid-air, continually shooting out monochromatic water lights.
They were like the merciless reapers of death, crazy plunderers, killing and destroying everything they touched over a hundred meters away!
The followers of the Sea God Cult were almost completely annihilated, but the remaining one was extremely troublesome; the recent violent explosions and Baron Vaughn’s attack had no effect whatsoever!
What should they do?
Every member of the Fischer family was considering their options. On the other side of the mountain top, Baron Vaughn had already charged out, bellowing.
He covered himself in radiant armor at breakneck speed, heading straight for the water being.
“Trash of the Sea God Cult!”
However, the water being floating on the hillside suddenly raised its hand and shot out several water lights in an instant.
The first one seemed to be deflected by some Mysterious rare artifact, shooting off in a different direction, while the other water lights ripped through Baron Vaughn’s radiant armor in a flash, severely wounding him until he bled profusely.
“Help me!”
Chris suddenly shouted, bursting through the crowd, daggers in his hands gleaming with a silver radiance!
At that moment, Verne, in a state of panic, fell to the ground; half of his head had been sliced off by the monochromatic water light at some point, and Byrne saw dozens of family soldiers dead around him.
“Great Lord of the Lost, you…ah!”
Irene had collapsed to the ground, muttering to herself, not hesitating to sacrifice herself, but just then, she felt a severe pain in her head, as if a red-hot iron spike was being driven deep into her brain, burning, tearing!
“Aaaaahhhhh!”
She trembled and wailed, clutching her head and convulsing on the spot; it was the automatic activation of a Mysterious rare artifact meant for defense that Priest Azure Blue carried.
People from the Fischer family were stunned, having never anticipated that Irene’s prayer could be interrupted!
“Huh, amongst this group of insignificant weaklings, there’s actually someone who can pose a lethal threat to me? Just now, my ‘Reverse Stab’ artifact was forced to activate.”
Priest Azure Blue looked at Baron Vaughn, who had almost become a bloodied figure before him, with disdain, yet there was a hint of confusion in his tone.
The next moment, he saw a thin man wearing gold-rimmed glasses, slowly approaching his position.
“The tactic of long-distance combat was your choice, and now you must struggle to get close to me, hahaha!”
Priest Azure Blue laughed aloud, raising his hand to shoot a monochromatic water light, which the thin man narrowly dodged with an instant shift in position.
“Huh, interesting. Are you a Spellcaster with shape-shifting abilities, or do you possess a similar power of Bloodline, or is there a powerful Mysterious rare artifact on you?”
He paused, his interest piqued.
“Bang!”
An unexpected gunshot rang out, and a flintlock bullet precisely passed through the water being’s body.
It was futile; neither flame nor bullet could inflict even a scratch on a body that had highly developed the Formless Water Demon Bloodline.
Priest Azure Blue was filled with scorn.
However, in the next instant, the thin man who had just switched places with the bullet appeared behind Priest Azure Blue.
Priest Azure Blue didn’t look back but instead shot two monochromatic water lights from behind him at high speed, piercing through the body of the gold-glasses-wearing thin man.
“Byrne” wore a look of astonishment and horror, then his damaged body dispersed into vapor.
It was a Body Double!
Priest Azure Blue paused for a moment, scanning his surroundings to locate his opponent, but soon saw a tremendously frightening figure!
The Tempest Bishop, the Thunderous Monarch!
He had unexpectedly appeared, standing at the top of the mountain, looking down with angry eyes upon him!
“Absolutely impossible!”
Priest Azure Blue was momentarily terrified and instinctively stepped back, then realized it was something entirely impossible!
It wasn’t him!
It was a fake!
Theo, using a fake-spirit card, stood in the most conspicuous spot on the mountaintop, posing as the Tempest Bishop “Thunderous Monarch,” staring angrily and vulnerably at Azure Blue.
He was sweat-drenched, aware that if his opponent launched a frantic attack in his direction, he was as good as dead.
