Chapter 842: The Black Knight's Changes
My, no, where is Angelica's blade? It was in my hand just now, and I killed a "trickster" with it?
Angel frowned and subconsciously reached into his own "mirror space", but failed to grab the powerful weapon created by the extraordinary characteristics of the "Iron Knight".
But the black leather glove on her retracted left hand alerted her spirit, and she immediately remembered the embarrassing side effect of the "Parasite" gloves:
Every time the user uses its "steal" ability, there is a chance that they will lose other magical items on them.
This wasn't some kind of bad luck, so Angel's secret holy emblem wouldn't work. In fact, it itself was one of those items that was easily lost, but this time it was taken priority by the more sarcastic and provocative "Angelica's Blade"... and this kind of "lost item" in the mystical sense was difficult for the user to detect!
No, this is nothing to be proud of. If my weapon were to disappear inexplicably during a battle, it could change the entire outcome...
Angel muttered, looked around, and soon found the straight sword stuck in the wrinkled back of the "Weird Mage". He walked up and pulled it out. While the hilt was still hot, he ignited the high-temperature flames and burned this old woman from the Roselle era who had endured 175 years in the "Fountain of Youth" into ashes, allowing her to rest in peace.
It’s a pity that she didn’t wear any magical items on her body, otherwise such an ancient demigod must have a lot of “assets”... Alas, I should have thought of this when I saw her emerging naked from the water. She didn’t even have a paper figurine on her, so where did the magical items come from?
Watching the black ashes slowly falling into the "Fountain of Youth" under the breeze, and then quickly being submerged by the constantly surging spring water, Angel sighed a few words, took off the "Parasite" gloves, and put them back into the mirror space together with his own sharp blade, and then returned to the grass outside and entered a messy battlefield.
Two of her ten "Reapers" had been executed by the "Lawmage" in the previous battle. Under her command, the remaining eight armored soldiers stood in a row again and turned into a string of small puppets.
From beginning to end, they showed no hostility towards Angel and had no intention of "betrayal".
After putting away the remaining eight puppets, Angel looked at the "secret puppets" that were in different positions and postures, but all of them were lifeless.
The "winner," who was dressed a bit like an Intis person from a hundred years ago, was burned by the black flames caused by Angel's direct touch, and his original appearance was no longer recognizable. Beside him, a ball of Beyonder Characteristics that flashed with silver-white light was gathering and forming, making Angel want to take it for himself immediately.
Maybe I can use it to make a revolver... Well, my sharp blade will be jealous, so I can only sell it to someone else... Angel picked it up happily, and added a black flame to the blond young man's body that had no spirit and characteristics, letting this "loser" who should have died a hundred years ago return to dust.
Then, she walked towards the witch who had exchanged places with the "Winner" under the arrangement of the "Weird Wizard" to avoid being directly hit by the "Betrayal" and the "Luck Stealer". After the "Spirit Thread" of the latter was interrupted by the talisman and she lost control and became a lifeless puppet, she was besieged by the "Reapers". Her upper body was stabbed into a bloody mess by various weapons. She was lying on the ground at this moment, and the grass beside her was covered with solidified black blood.
Her hood had fallen off, revealing her long hair, which was bright golden but no longer soft and shiny. Her face shape and facial features reminded Angel of the "weird wizard" who had just died in his hands, whose appearance was changed by the faceless man's ability.
The person she modified her appearance to imitate turned out to be her own secret doll. However, when communicating with the spirit, her spirit still showed its original appearance, which showed that she had a clear understanding of her "truth". Otherwise, she would have lost control in the process of playing the "Faceless Man" and would never have been able to be promoted to a demigod... Angel sighed a little, reached out and picked up the extraordinary characteristics of the "Despair" witch, and used the same black flame to send this witch who did not belong to the "Witch Sect" on her final journey.
Finally, only the Black Knight remains...
She walked around several ancient trees that blocked her view and came to the other side of the grassland. The battle here was the most intense, leaving countless deep gullies and traces of burns on the grassland. They were caused by the collision between the "Blade of Flesh and Soul" and the "Harvest", and the bloody battle between the Demigod Extraordinary and the Reaper Team formed by the "War Bishop".
But in the center of these traces, a strange black shadow was constantly wriggling.
It seemed to absorb all the light nearby, making the area within dozens of meters appear dim. Angel had just taken a few steps forward when he realized that the "rules" around him had changed to a certain extent, as if someone was constantly issuing various "bans", making the surrounding environment fall into a changeable danger.
"Master of Ritsurin"?
Angel was alert and did not rush forward. Instead, he stood just beside the dark area, carefully observing the changes in the black shadow.
With her decent knowledge of mysticism, she could guess that the "Black Knight" must have undergone some special changes when he died after escaping from "mysticization", and this change was closely related to the souls he herded!
At least, the one who constantly imposed "bans" on the surrounding environment in silence was the soul of the arbitrator demigod...
Just as Angel was thinking about whether to continue waiting for this abnormal change to stop, or to add fuel to the fire with curses and black flames, the shadow of a "black knight" that was more than two meters high and looked like a distorted figure suddenly cracked in the upper part, and the flesh and blood inside surged like a huge mouth leading to hell.
“————”
An indescribable sound came out of that "mouth", like the desperate howl of a mental patient, sharp and sticky, which made Angel fall into a daze in an instant, and his brain was almost blank.
Is this... "Ocean Singer"?
Angel immediately recalled the scene when he and the "Hanged Man" Alger were exploring the nameless island together and the other party sang "Impulse". His mind was half filled with the stinging pain caused by the current song, and half with the dizziness of sinking into memories. After a few seconds, he adjusted himself and looked back at the singing shadow.
If he continued to release these mixed extraordinary abilities, even bigger problems might arise... She no longer hesitated and immediately decided to use curses and black flames to hasten the death of the "Black Knight".
Beams of black flames that could burn out all spirituality swirled towards the black shadow. At the same time, several ice mirrors appeared out of thin air beside Angel. They were aimed at the black shadow formed by the mutation of the "Black Knight", including him in the image in the mirror. The superimposed curses continued to seep into his shapeless body, cutting off the last trace of life that was pieced together by different grazing souls.
At this moment, the grassland that had already become dark due to some power underwent new changes.
The sun, which gradually sank eastward, stained the island with a seductive red hue, as if day and night had switched in an instant, and the warm sunlight turned into crimson, cold moonlight.
This abnormal change that caused Angel's inner spirit to surge only appeared in the area of about thirty meters around the "Black Knight", making this area enter "nighttime" and shrouded in the eerie moonlight. However, the surrounding sunlight was still dazzling, making that small dark space seem like it was in another world.
The "Black Knight" who was covered in black flames and cursed suddenly exploded into pieces of red scales in the moonlight that came from nowhere. They flew out in all directions with irregular trajectories, like bats with wings.
What kind of extraordinary ability is this? I have never seen the "Black Knight" use it just now... Angel's eyes quickly swept over the flying red scales. The "disease" spread instantly, but it had no effect on these illusory things.
Without any hesitation, she took out Angelica's sharp blade, infused it with spirituality, and let a purple high-temperature flame surge out of the tip of the straight sword. However, she did not aim it at a piece of red scale fragments exploded from the "Black Knight", but pointed it at an ice mirror beside her, activating the door to the "Mirror World".
The next second, a "destruction ray" hundreds of meters long poured into the mirror and shot out from all the surrounding ice mirrors, like a giant purple claw reaching towards the sky. Each of its fingers was composed of extremely high-temperature flames that could burn any object and spirit. Each of them penetrated one or more flying red scales and completely annihilated it.
In mid-air, the burnt ashes condensed on their own, and the smoking figure of the "Black Knight" appeared, rolling and landing heavily on the grass with a loud "bang".
Angel did not give him any chance to display any extraordinary abilities. All the ice mirrors beside him carefully adjusted their directions, allowing the "giant claws" made of flames to close. Rays of "destruction" swept across the twisted black shadow, cutting off his last chance of life.
call--
She exhaled a breath of scorching air, feeling the blood almost boiling in her body, and quickly sent the "Angelica's Blade" that she had been holding for more than two minutes in the battle and almost ignited herself back to the mirror space. In the spirit of recycling, she controlled the ice mirror beside her to move closer to herself to lower the temperature of her almost burning body.
Only then did she slowly walk towards the remains of the "Black Knight" that were emitting high temperatures, while being alert to possible changes that might occur again and reviewing the battle just now.
It seems the souls the Black Knight herds aren't limited to the Lawmage and the Reaper. There's also at least a certain Sea Singer, and a certain sequence that can summon the light of the Crimson Moon, transforming into red scales and scattering in flight... That's right, as the successor sequence to the Shepherd, he can't just herd two souls. Even if he only has the mid-sequence available, he'll try to fill the gaps within himself...
She muttered to herself as she came to the "Black Knight" who was still emitting oppressive heat. She was about to summon more frost to help him "calm down", but she found that this shapeless, ever-changing black shadow was constantly collapsing inwards, shrinking rapidly as if being absorbed by something, and disappeared without a trace in the dots of light in less than ten seconds.
The only thing left there was a ruby necklace that looked familiar to Angel. Various colors of light kept flashing inside the huge gem, making it impossible to look away.
this……
Isn’t this my “Rose Necklace”?
Angel touched his chest in astonishment and found that the necklace that had been hanging around his neck was gone.
Could it be that when I first used the "Parasite" gloves and stole the "Deprivation" ability of the Law Mage, this necklace left me, and then during the mutation caused by the "Black Knight"'s soul losing control, it was sucked into it due to the Beyonder characteristic aggregation law, and returned to its original owner?
But if that's the case, what about the Beyonder characteristics of the Black Knight? What about the Lawmage and the Ocean Singer?
Angel picked up the "Rose Necklace" which was still a little hot, as if it had just been taken out of the forge, half in confusion and half in anticipation, and probed into it with his spiritual power.
After a moment, her purple eyes gradually widened, and the joy in her heart could no longer be contained.
This time... I made a lot of money!
