“Oh no… He’s controlling… the thread of my spirit…” As a senior Beyonder and demigod who has dealt with the “Faceless Man”, the “Master of Secret Dolls”, and the “Magic Master”, and even directly fought against them, Qonas Kilger is not unfamiliar with the current situation. He is even quite familiar with it and has a certain understanding of it.
Therefore, he knew very well that he had fallen into a fatal trap and the time available to save himself would not exceed fifteen seconds!
During these fifteen seconds, his thoughts would become more and more sluggish, and his ideas would become slower and slower. In the end, it might take him several seconds just to come up with a solution, and his stiff body would also take a long time to put his ideas into practice. In other words, Qonas Kilger would only have a little over ten seconds to save himself!
Of course, he had considered how to deal with the last few seconds before, which was to simply give up control of himself and reveal the form of a mythical creature, thereby prolonging the time of being puppeted, and disturbing the enemy through his existence itself, causing him to suffer a certain impact.
However, even if he managed to escape from the puppet state and even defeated his enemies, Qonas Kilger was not sure that he could survive.
He was not the kind of demigod who could switch freely between human form and mythical creature form, and he was not sure that he could maintain his sanity in the form of a mythical creature.
In other words, the result of releasing the mythical creature form to get rid of the secret puppet is most likely that the "man" Qiunas Kilger will die on the spot, and the monster of the same name will take over his body.
Because of this, unless there is really no other way, Qonas Kilger will not make such an attempt.
While his thoughts were not so slow and while "Revere's desperate scream" rang in his ears, the military demigod quickly came up with his first plan to save himself.
He moved his right thumb at a not-too-slow speed.
"The Fallen Count", "Zoom In"!
What Qonas Kilger wanted to "magnify" was not a certain state of his own or the attack of a certain sealed object, but the negative effect of "Revere's Desperate Scream"!
This strange revolver will make the holder hear desperate screams from time to time. For creatures without divinity, this is very serious, and it is easy to lose control, go crazy, have their mind torn apart, or go blank. At Sequence 4, since it already has the aspect of a mythical creature, the effect of the screams is greatly reduced.
For Qiunas Kilger, this screaming only made him a little dazed and a little manic, but it didn't have much impact. He had even begun to adapt to it.
At this moment, he wanted to amplify this "desperate scream" to a level that even a demigod could hardly bear, so that his own spirit would experience piercing pain, and thus break free from the control of the "Spirit Line"!
Since "Amplification" did not require any obvious movements and took effect very quickly, Gehrman Sparrow, who was holding the "Death Knell" revolver, wearing a half-top hat, surrounded by strong winds and floating in the air, was unable to stop it in time, and the "Fallen Count" successfully used this extraordinary ability.
But the next second, what Qonas Kilger was waiting for was not the terrifying "scream", but silence.
The normal “roar” that was still there also disappeared!
This is the random change brought about by the "Concerto of Light and Shadow"!
How... unlucky... The thought flashed through Qonas Kilger's mind slowly. He didn't bother to feel depressed and immediately started to save himself for the second time.
He raised his right hand slowly, aimed at German Sparrow within 150 meters with "Revere's Desperate Scream", and was about to pull the trigger.
At the same time, the strong wind blowing straight towards his right hand suddenly disintegrated from the inside and quickly collapsed into scattered airflow.
"The Fallen Count", "Chaos"!
Qiunas used this to counter the interference from Gehrman Sparrow.
Immediately afterwards, the sound of bangs bangs rang out, and "Revere's desperate scream" was like a machine gun, spitting out dangerous bullets crazily, without stopping for a long time.
Gehrman Sparrow, who was wearing a black windbreaker, shook his body continuously but was not hit.
The bullets grazed his silhouette and flew into the distance, shattering the windows and walls of the Meige Manor, causing one of the houses to collapse quietly.
Bang bang bang bang!
The subsequent storm of bullets continued to hit, and finally, Gehrman Sparrow was hit, multiple times in a row!
Amid the splattering blood, Gehrman Sparrow was like a paper man in the wind, constantly swaying and struggling, and could be torn apart at any time.
Bang! Bang! Bang! The strange pistol finally stopped "screaming" this time, and Gehrman Sparrow's body, except for his head, had hideous bloody holes all over his body.
Normally, this was a state that only the dead would experience, but Gehrman Sparrow continued to manipulate the "Spirit Thread" as if he was not affected at all.
The exaggerated wounds on his body were healing slowly but surely.
This is the effect of the "Blood Flower" ring.
This Gehrman Sparrow is essentially the "winner" Enuni!
The reason why he didn't die in the violent attack just now was because he released his accumulated "luck" and because Qonas Kilger was "unlucky" enough!
And the "desperate scream" brought by the bullet is equivalent to nothing to a secret doll.
Seeing that the violent attack did not achieve the expected effect and that the time for self-rescue was getting shorter and shorter, Qonas Kilger followed the plan he had just thought of and slowly loosened the five fingers of his left hand without even thinking.
The "iron" pocket watch suddenly slipped out of his hand and fell downwards.
At this critical moment, Qonas Kilger decisively abandoned the "Concerto of Light and Shadow" and kept it away from the battlefield to avoid the impact of random mutations.
Next, he may only have one or two chances to save himself. If any bad changes occur again, it will be impossible to remedy the situation!
The seal with a half-ordered and half-chaotic dial was falling rapidly. Qonas Kilger moved his finger with difficulty towards Gehrman Sparrow, whose wounds were healing rapidly.
He originally should have had two choices. One was to act without thinking according to the third self-rescue method he had thought of at the beginning. The other was to "magnify" the enemy's injuries and kill him on the spot.
However, when Qonas Kilger was still able to think quickly, he failed to anticipate that after being shot so many times, not only did German Sparrow not die, but even his control over the "Spirit Thread" was not affected at all. There was no corresponding follow-up in the plan.
At this time, his head seemed to be filled with paste and he couldn't think too much. He didn't want to waste time, so he could only act according to the plan.
Woo!
Around Gehrman Sparrow, who was wearing transparent gloves and holding a black iron revolver, the strong wind that was supporting him suddenly became fierce, swirling and rushing high into the sky.
Woo!
Gehrman Sparrow was carried by the strong wind and rushed towards the dark night sky under the witness of the huge red moon.
"The Fallen Count", "Zoom In"!
The strong wind that helped Gehrman Sparrow fly was "magnified" into a tornado!
In this way, the distance between him and Qonas Kilger will soon be pulled to 150 meters, and the Puppet Transformation will be ineffective!
Seeing that his goal had been initially achieved, the expression on Qonas Kilger's face, who had not yet escaped from control, suddenly became complicated.
The tornado expanded rapidly, sweeping over and affecting him, throwing him high into the sky, making it impossible for him to completely distance himself from Gehrman Sparrow.
What a misfortune.
Under the night sky and in the crimson moonlight, the two figures became smaller and smaller.
Soon, the tornado returned to normal and the two people's upward trend was alleviated.
Seizing this opportunity, Qonas Kilger's almost frozen thoughts came up with another idea:
“Stop…”
He stopped the power that kept him flying, and with the help of the earth's gravity, he fell rapidly downwards like a meteorite, quickly distancing himself from Gehrman Sparrow.
Then, he ignored the fact that Gehrman Sparrow was riding the strong wind, turned around and chased after him, slowly pulling his left arm in front of him as if his joints were rusted.
This is a "closing the door" action.
He wanted to use the "distortion" of the "Fallen Count" to create a wall-like air seal to block Gehrman Sparrow and prevent him from catching up.
At this moment, the surviving puppets below, those Gehrman Sparrows, simultaneously raised their left arms and made a shooting gesture.
Bang bang bang bang!
Bullets were fired one after another, covering Qonas Kilger in mid-air.
By the time the shock wave dissipated, there were already several bloody holes on Qonas Kilger's body.
——After being hit by the first few bullets and shells, he finally got rid of the control of the "Spirit Thread" with the help of the severe pain and the shaking of his body, and the speed of his thinking was restored.
Then, at that critical moment, he "confused" the subsequent shooting and "distorted" the trauma he suffered. In the end, he did not die but was seriously injured.
Gehrman Sparrow, who was falling from a high altitude and holding many magical items, was blocked by the "invisible wall" he created and was unable to catch up.
Another "twist", and Qonas Kilger's falling speed slowed down instantly, and he landed lightly on the ground.
Before he could do anything else, his body stiffened again and he stood still.
He felt that his hands and feet were against him and no longer obeyed his orders. He felt that there was a strange thing hidden inside his body!
Then, he saw a figure walking out of the owner's room in the main house of Meige Manor under the light of the huge red moon and standing on the balcony.
He had black hair and brown eyes, wore a silk hat, and a black windbreaker. His features were deep and his lines were cold and hard. He was another Gehrman Sparrow.
This Gehrman Sparrow also put his right hand in a shooting posture, then retracted it, put it to his mouth, and blew it.
This is Klein himself.
What he just fired was not an air bullet, but a "parasitic bullet" launched with the power of an air bullet!
"Parasite Bullet" made from the "Time Worm" left behind by Amon's clone!
It can create a "time worm" that cannot survive for too long, let it "parasitize" the target's body, and be controlled by the user.
Klein deliberately took out the bullet and held it in his hand, waiting for an opportunity, waiting for Qonas Kilger to throw away the "Concerto of Light and Shadow" and be in a state where he could not dodge or "distort".
The former was foreseeable after the "Fallen Count" had his "Spirit Thread" initially controlled, because the other party would not let random mutations affect his self-rescue, while the latter required patience.
Just now, patience paid off and an opportunity arose. Klein was the first to raise his hand and shoot. Without the interference of random mutations, he accurately shot the "parasitic bullet" into the body of Qonas Kilger!
——If the one that was effective before was not "deceiving bullets" but "depriving bullets", then it would be a different way of playing.
Qonas Kilger, who was temporarily unable to control his body, just watched Gehrman Sparrow on the balcony take off his hat under the huge red moon, put his hand on his chest, and bowed slightly to him.
When the other person's black windbreaker was gently lifted up, even his thoughts came to a standstill.
