A soul bullet, accompanied by a ferocious roar, grazed the edge of the blonde girl's cheek.
Just half a centimeter short, and her pretty face would have been left with a scar that would never fade.
The sharp whistling of the bullet grazed past her ears, even severing a few strands of her golden hair.
Erica flipped over and narrowly escaped the hail of bullets.
All around, countless ghostly figures shrouded in gloomy white mist transformed into ferocious soul bullets, traversing this prison-like land in an attempt to strike her.
The souls even stretched their bodies, resembling curved scythe blades, and fell madly from both sides of the sky onto the stone plate.
Erica weaved through the falling ghosts and barrage of soul bullets while searching for an opportunity to attack Thanatos.
After a series of intense evasive maneuvers, Erica was exhausted and out of breath.
Most importantly, even though she had already severed one of her opponent's arms, she still found it incredibly difficult to deal with.
However, the biggest limitation is still this void bronze fortress.
Compared to the previous eleven trials, it seemed too small.
The places we were in before were either forests or swamps, ruins or floating islands.
Now, this stone plate is surrounded by azure flames, making the space even more confined.
Without any cover available, Erica found it quite difficult to deal with Thanatos's attacks.
She even struggled to find opportunities to recover her strength.
More importantly, she didn't expect that this Grim Reaper had other forms.
In its second phase, Thanatos not only becomes enormous, but its attack methods also completely change.
This rendered Erica's previous combat experience useless.
Standing still, Erica quickly adjusted her state during the gap in the attack.
Meanwhile, consider how to find Thanatos's weaknesses and defeat him amidst his frequent attacks.
She took two steps, her body tumbling amidst the chaotic barrage of soul bullets, her gaze occasionally sweeping over Thanatos's enormous face.
Erica quickly discovered the key problem.
The scythe... is now embedded in the center of Thanatos's body.
The eye at the tip of the scythe was closed, and waves of purple magic flowed into Thanatos's enormous face.
"So the key lies in that sickle?"
She thought this guess was quite likely.
After all, the other party took back the sickle but didn't use it, so the secret might be hidden there.
At this moment, a storm raged, surrounded by countless souls, and countless ghosts emerged from the vortex, their pale figures peeking out.
They twisted into a ball and fell together from the sky, stretching out their hands and violently approaching Erica.
Erica leaped lightly, dodging the rolling serpent of vengeful spirits.
At the same time, she no longer paid attention to the soul attack released by Thanatos.
Her target was the scythe hidden behind Thanatos's face.
[Second-Tier Magic: Frost Spikes]
As the magic circle emerged from his hand, sharp, ice-crystal-like spikes attacked Thanatos's body.
While relentlessly attacking Thanatos, she also unleashed three icy blades, concealing them within the barrage of ice attacks.
The three sharp blades were aimed at the scythe at Thanatos's waist.
Thanatos seemed to realize the presence of the three icy blades.
It completely ignored the countless ice crystals attacking its body, instead tightly closing its mouth and biting down on the three flying ice crystals.
It avoided the three ice crystal attacks from hitting the scythe at its waist.
Erica rolled away to dodge the soul missile launched by Thanatos.
She raised her head, her gaze fixed on the scythe at Thanatos's waist.
Are they even neglecting their own bodies to protect that area?
Indeed, that might be why it turned out this way.
We must find a way to get that sickle back!
Let's get right to it.
Without hesitation, Erica quickly devised a tactic and charged forward like a leopard.
Seeing this, Thanatos also summoned the surrounding dead souls.
Batch after batch of souls, their bodies elongated, plummeted like sickles.
Erica ducked, jumped, and rolled, skillfully dodging a series of deadly scythes.
Faced with these razor-sharp ghosts, her physical abilities seemed to be fully activated, and her speed increased faster and faster.
With a wave of her magic hand, a cloud of dust and smoke erupted from beneath her feet, and Thanatos vanished from her sight in an instant.
Suddenly, a blonde girl burst out of the smoke and rushed straight towards Thanatos.
Thanatos, witnessing this scene, actually showed some panic.
It quickly urged the surrounding dead souls to fire countless soul bullets.
However, what Thanatos saw before him was somewhat unexpected.
Because Erica was pierced through the body by it.
how so?
Thanatos's astonishment seemed to say it all.
In order to get closer to it, this human stopped even hiding?
But it soon discovered the truth.
Erica, pierced by the Soul Missile, suddenly exploded, turning into a mist that spilled onto the ground.
That was just a clone.
Thanatos looked down sharply, only to find that the real Erica had already emerged from the smoke and entered the vortex of the soul.
She grabbed a crazed and ferocious ghost and strangled its uneasy head.
Like a swaying cloud, it carried Erica into the air.
Thanatos suddenly contracted the massive vortex of undead, and countless twisted undead reached out to grab Erica.
