Chapter 299 Gold Medal Suicide Expert
The archbishop crept closer to Sinaya, handkerchief in hand.
His waist and back were slightly arched, like a monkey holding a wooden stick and approaching a tiger, ready to use the wisdom in his hand to stab the beast's buttocks.
Boom, boom, boom, boom, his heart rate and blood pressure rose simultaneously.
The figure in front of him was clearly still a human, but it evoked a terrifying pressure. This intimidating force seemed to solidify in the air and could strangle his throat at any time.
Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, don't be afraid...
The Archbishop silently recited the most important rule he'd learned from childhood to university. When faced with anomalies, humans must never be afraid. Fear is useless and only strengthens the anomaly and weakens the individual.
Oh, and she's an anomaly.
The Archbishop's tension was slightly relieved by a flash of inspiration: an abnormality transformed into a human could not skillfully use her human body.
For example, he used to have four octopus tentacles that could be used as whips to lash out at the enemy. It was a bit strange when these four weapons first disappeared.
Fortunately, he is not very old and has been using his human body for longer than the time he grew abnormal limbs, so these muscle memories can be restored quickly.
But abnormalities are different from humans.
The anthropomorphism of the anomalies is only reflected in their ability to communicate with humans and possess a certain degree of thinking ability.
According to the lore within the Chaos God Cult, the more powerful the anomaly—especially the abyss behemoths—the more different their true forms are from humans. Sometimes, just one glance at them can drive people crazy.
The abnormal body can be gaseous or liquid, with countless eyes and seventeen or eighteen arms, which is far from the human body.
The archbishop recalled the blonde woman's posture when she entered the room, and his expression suddenly became arrogant: she was led in by the black-haired girl.
At that time, Chen Xiao'er held her hand tightly... I thought she was afraid that this powerful monster would get out of control, but now it seems that she is simply acting as a crutch for the monster!
Hehehe, it turns out that this monster has just acquired a human body and can't even walk smoothly.
That's right. After all, the abyss beast can devour other anomalies even when lying on the ground. How can it have any reason to fight with humans or even practice martial arts?
He held his handkerchief high and used his brain, which had been expanded by the great existence, to outline dark tracks of action.
It doesn't matter, the other person walks with their hands and feet clumsy, I just put the handkerchief on her face -
Sizzle, sizzle.
Snowflakes suddenly flashed across his retina. The stingy great being finally gave a little hint to this believer whom He did not like.
This has nothing to do with caring, but more with not being able to bear the sight of stupidity.
As the snow gradually cleared, the Archbishop's vision changed.
The people in front of him were still the same people, but there was a sudden double image in front of his retina, which included them and himself.
On the double-imaged screen, he continued to act as planned, joyfully extending his handkerchief toward the blonde woman's back.
Tick.
A drop of liquid rolled down the handkerchief and splashed onto the woman's smooth shoulder.
The air was twisting, and a strong shudder ran through her body like an electric current, but the blonde woman did not look back.
An invisible and intangible object suddenly rose from the ground, grabbed his ankle, and started cutting upwards piece by piece from the sole of his foot. Each piece of flesh was as thin as a cicada's wing.
Ahh ...
The cruel illusion was fleeting, and the archbishop's body was sealed in the rift of time, unable to move.
His consciousness went blank for a few seconds before he asked in panic, "My Lord, My Lord! You-you didn't say, I'm certainly not questioning you, but that, but that, that monster's power isn't human at all!!"
[Indeed, Chen Xiao'er has become stronger.]
[Zero is ultimately based on her. If Chen Xiao'er hadn't witnessed it firsthand, the abilities she developed would have steered events in her favor...]
The great being's narrative style was a bit strange. If the archbishop was not in so much pain that he could not think, he would be horrified to find that the great god he served was lamenting a situation that it had just noticed, and the words and perspective were closer to talking to itself.
Despair has made preparations for both scenarios.
It would be great if this chess piece could kill Chen Xiao'er, but he didn't expect this piece of trash to really kill Chen Xiao'er, so he didn't say what he was thinking.
Regardless of other differences, Chen Xiao'er's companions always receive extra treatment when they are around her.
And now this preferential treatment may have reached a whole new level. With the cover of cognitive filters, Chen Xiao'er's companions can completely use abnormal levels of power to deal with "ordinary people."
Fortunately, He has adjusted His original final plan, otherwise... it would be impossible to defeat this monster favored by the world.
Lan, Ling and even this ridiculous devil hunter, all three of them were held tightly in Chen Xiao'er's hands.
From a normal logic perspective, no enemy can win under any circumstances.
Fortunately, my victory does not require defeating them.
The despair of figuring everything out added a kind of malice almost like pity to this chess piece who had tried to find out some information but was bound to fail.
【“Go.”】He said hopefully.
yes.
The archbishop certainly didn't understand what had just happened. The god I believed in actually made a prophecy for me personally!
He didn't know what happened to the previous believer who accepted the prophecy, and his heart was filled with the emotion of being expected by God.
My Lord has specifically eliminated a wrong answer for me. I must use human wisdom to pass this trial that is meant for me!
He held the handkerchief a little further away from Sinaya.
This abnormal perception ability is very terrifying, and as long as Chen Xiao'er's ability is effective on her, she can still use abnormal means to deal with me before Chen Xiao'er turns around and sees us.
Thinking of the catastrophe predicted to happen, the Archbishop shuddered. He really didn't want to experience the excruciating pain of having his feet worn away piece by piece again in reality!
The current situation seems to be a dead end, but our Lord will not give believers a trial that they cannot pass.
He pondered over it and soon found a way out of the dilemma based on the knowledge he had learned over the years.
Chen Xiao'er is a human being. No matter how strong her abilities are, there must be prerequisites for them to take effect normally.
Her effect of normalizing all objects is effective in a range of areas.
What she saw and what she didn't see would result in two completely different outcomes for the development of things, which shows that the effect of her ability on the transformation of corresponding objects is linked to her five senses.
The conditions for her ability to take effect cover both range and five senses, which seems unsolvable on the surface, but I can connect her five senses with the ritual!
If Chen Xiao'er is completely immersed in the ritual of communicating with the Lord, her power will prioritize resisting the connection with the Lord, resulting in a delay in response.
The blonde woman and I were still within the range of her ability, so the condition of "treating everyone as ordinary people" was still in effect.
I can use this time difference to sneak attack the blonde woman, cover her face with the handkerchief, and then make a loud noise to attract Chen Xiao'er's attention - a perfect, perfect plan!
The archbishop did what he said and took a step forward happily. He shuddered for some reason: No, the premonition of danger had not diminished at all.
Why is this?
He looked around and suddenly noticed that the speakers in the corner were banging non-stop. The noise from the speakers masked the sound of his footsteps, but it was also loud enough to make his head swell.
I see!
He suddenly realized: in such a noisy environment, Chen Xiao'er would not be able to concentrate on communicating with the Lord, so the ritual would not be able to trip her up, and that was why I would fail as predicted.
Even if the first sneak attack succeeded by chance, with the loud music outside, the blonde woman wouldn't be able to hear me even if I shouted at the top of my lungs after I held her down.
If this handkerchief is determined to be "non-toxic" by the supernatural power, then wouldn't I...
He imagined himself being strangled by the blonde woman and punched three times. The image of a hydraulic press crushing walnuts emerged in his mind, and he immediately spread his legs and rushed towards the speaker.
This speaker looked very much like a radio, and radio-like strange objects were very common in Chixing. He quickly pinched the FM button and turned it hard.
Oddly enough, as soon as the needle moved, a melodious tune floated out from the speakers. The noisy plastic candle in the center of the ritual array fell to the ground with a clatter, and then fell silent.
The room was filled with tinkling sounds, similar to the ensemble of wind chimes and tripods, and then transitioned to soothing piano music.
The archbishop quickly looked at the crowd. Chen Xiao'er was standing there with her eyes closed, not moving, and was obediently experiencing meditation activities with the other captives according to his instructions.
He swallowed, grabbed the handkerchief and walked towards Xinnaya again, but his eyes were always fixed in the direction of Chen Xiao'er.
The black-haired girl lowered her eyes and visibly breathed a sigh of relief when the music started.
This music is probably what she wants to listen to...just right.
The archbishop walked back behind Xinaya and took a deep breath: This time I won’t be stupid enough to cover your mouth with a handkerchief.
This monster's perception ability is extremely exaggerated, and its physique is so strong. If she suddenly punches me in the nose, even I might lose.
The best way to avoid being ambushed is to take the initiative!
The Archbishop gently hung the handkerchief on his belt, and with both free hands he grabbed Sinaya's shoulders simultaneously.
He had already thought of a complete set of neat combos in his mind:
I first wrapped my arms around the woman's right arm, then used all my strength to push her down, and then used my superb ground skills to suppress her. Then I could use a handkerchief or something to cover her however I wanted!
The music is very calm now, and Chen Xiao'er will definitely be startled by the sound of me beating the blonde woman and see me suppressing her.
As long as she bears witness, my victory will become 100% real!
The Archbishop's blood boiled at the thought. Alas! Taking such a small risk to defeat the beast with a mortal body was truly worth it, even if it meant dying!
Faster, faster.
His pupils contracted with excitement: My guess was correct, this time she did not touch the invisible barrier, she is just a mortal now.
Before his fingers touched his arm, Despair silently transmitted a frame of image to him.
The good news is that he does have a gift for prophecy.
In that frame, the woman's arms crushed his head furiously like a hydraulic press.
Oh no, it seems her strength is far greater than mine, and using ground techniques to fight is useless.
Why is An Yi so proficient in fighting skills?!
His hand was about to touch Sinaya's arm, and death seemed inevitable.
The strong desire to survive prompted the archbishop's thinking to speed up continuously, and he finally locked onto a somewhat strange decoration.
The blonde woman had a leather collar around her neck, with a ruby pendant wrapped around the collar.
The god seemed to be smiling at him, and the pendant's string was a thin golden chain.
He widened his eyes, and an idea suddenly came to his mind.
Strangulation.
I only need to grab this necklace to strangle her from behind. After strangling the blonde woman, I can also use the remaining poisonous handkerchief to kill Chen Xiao'e.
This must be the perfect solution to the trial.
Die!
He grabbed Xinnaya's necklace with a grim smile and pulled it back hard!
