Chapter 216: The Blue Sky Shines on the Dark Sword
Sporadic footsteps sounded in the dim underground. A group of people walked through this gradually abandoned passage. A lot of dust and debris had accumulated on the ground.
It's completely different from the last time I came here, the girl thought to herself, and then waved her arm lightly. One by one, light blue fireballs scattered around, like stars, illuminating the entire underground.
Closed shops can be seen everywhere. The once bustling pastry stalls, the streets full of tourists, and the stage with constant music are now empty, as if a hundred years have passed.
"Is there no one?" Ximu raised the rifle in his hand, and the flashlight on it swept around.
"There should be someone, but their living area is probably not here." Tilan shook her head and moved forward in the direction she remembered.
An hour later, the group finally came to the entrance to the underground living area, and gangsters appeared here to guard it.
"Who are you? How did you get here?" They looked at the group of young people coming in vigilantly, and their eyes swept over.
Although Ximu and Jinsenke had guns, the others did not. In addition, Tilan and Avni, who were in the lead, looked very young. This made the guards feel relieved. It seemed that these people were not desperate criminals, but had a student spirit.
"Are you here for adventure? This is not the place for you." The leading man had scars on his eyes. His eyes stayed on Avni for a long time, but he finally held back. After all, there were many fireballs floating around the girl. She looked like a powerful transcendent. "
It is indeed an adventure. Can you uncles let us pass? Ruby will thank everyone." The idol girl with purple-red hair jumped out from the back of the team, so that the other party could see clearly.
"What a beautiful girl, but we have a mission to guard here." The man on the opposite side shook his head, and the younger brothers behind him looked at Ruby and Avni greedily.
"Oh, is it really not possible?" Ruby showed a pitiful expression, as if she was about to cry.
"This..." The man on the other side seemed a little shaken, but thinking of the younger brother watching behind him, he couldn't lose face, so he refused again.
"No."
"Boss, don't be polite to them. I think these girls are suspicious. Why not catch them? Hehehe~" As he said this, he and the people around him laughed.
"Oh, well, it seems that Ruby can't convince the uncles."
Ruby pressed her chest lightly with one hand and closed her eyes, but then suddenly opened them again. Her blazing eyes showed a gorgeous purple-red color in the dim ground, and there seemed to be some kind of symbol condensed in them.
"Everyone, is Ruby's voice nice?" She smiled and put her hands together, and spoke to the people in front.
"... Nice, nice." The people in front became dazed and nodded involuntarily.
"Then are you willing to be Ruby's most loyal fans?"
"Yes, we are." The people spoke faster and faster, and there was a bit of fanaticism in their eyes.
"Thank you everyone, it's great to have fans like you." Ruby clapped happily, and then asked the people again.
"Now, Ruby is a little scared. Can you lead the way and protect Ruby?"
"Yes, we will protect you and lead the way for you."
"That's great~ You are all very, very good children~" Ruby smiled happily again. She lifted her skirt with both hands, bowed and saluted, and then let these people make way for her.
The group set off again, but at this time, the people behind were whispering.
"Ruby is really a succubus, with such a charming ability."
"Ahem, this charming ability is indeed a bit unexpected, but I heard from Ruby before that it will only work on people with Sequence 1-2."
"Fortunately, otherwise it would be a bit scary to think about having such a girl around."
"Don't be like this, Ruby only showed this talent because she treats us as friends. Otherwise, who would expose a terrifying ability for no reason?"
The people behind whispered, while Dolores and Ruby walked side by side in front, and the two were also talking about what happened just now.
"Why did you suddenly think of using this ability today?"
"Because I've been holding it back for too long, Dolores~ You know, it's like a master who has finally developed some strength, but has nowhere to show it. It
's very uncomfortable." "Usually I have to maintain my good and harmless personality, so that I can be liked by everyone. Although there are special fans who like my crazy and queen form, there are not many after all." Ruby said, saying that she was also very pitiful, and hoped that this good friend would sponsor her more in the future.
"You, this is also your true side." Dolores shook her head and then smiled again.
After the conversation, she looked at the black-haired girl in front of her, wondering when she would see Tilan's strong queen side. But to be honest, does she really have that kind of expression and time? Other boys said that Tilan looked like a gangster daughter before, but after all, she didn't see it in person, so she still didn't believe it.
Finally, the group slowly came to the depths of the underground. After walking out of the huge passage that sloped downward, an underground residential area emerged in the distance, and at the end of the field of vision, an ancient city emerged.
It's still the same, Tilan thought, but she didn't plan to hide anymore, time was running out.
She jumped up and flew towards the dome, then raised her hands, and countless magic light particles emerged and swam in the dark underground, and then gathered here.
"Qingluan's direct descendant·Biluo Zhaoyou Sword."
The black long hair moved without wind, and a magnificent jadeite long sword slowly emerged. The glittering light on it seemed to be particularly adapted to this dark world, coating the entire underground area with a faint dark glow.
Unlike the secrets of the previous natural sequence, this secret technique can be used with the withering sequence (necromancy sequence). It is said that it was created by Qingluan and Zhuo together. The opposite is Zhuo's direct descendant·Huangquan Youxian Sword.
The sword blade was swung lightly, and the sound of jingling jade stones echoed in the underground dome, making people dream of that distant time.
Then the girl holding the emerald sword descended gracefully, and her body gradually transformed into a gorgeous dress with snow-white sleeves and a red skirt. Her loose hair fluttered in the wind, and then was entangled by a red ribbon and gathered behind her head.
"Who is that!?" Deep underground, House, who was interrogating several old men, saw the sudden light from the dome, and then the girl slowly descended.
"Ahem..." Next to him and a group of gang members, the tied-up old man who was kneeling on the ground coughed, then raised his head with difficulty, and saw the figure descending gracefully. Hope could not help but emerge in his turbid eyes, and his expression was excited.
"That's the eldest lady, she, she is back... She is back again, and she did not abandon us." Unlike last time, the clothes that Tilan transformed into this time were exactly the same as the ones Gu Yongrong wore when dancing with a sword at the festival, and her face, which was similar to her mother's, was like Gu Yongrong in the painting that year walking out again.
"What eldest lady? You abandoned old men, stop going crazy here, tell me, who is she?" House kicked the old man in front of him away, then picked up the heavy machine gun beside him, aimed at the descending figure and pulled the trigger.
The rapid storm of bullets was mixed with the positioning red tracer bullets and fired, but unfortunately, due to the long distance, it could not hit the descending figure well.
Waving the emerald blade in her hand, Tilan easily swept away the scattered bullets. She held the sword in one hand and stroked the blade with the other. A light flashed in her eyes. Then her figure was like a phantom, flying rapidly towards the group of people. The straight trajectory was like a horizontal movement.
"Withering Secret Art: Void Shuttle."
When she came in front of the group of people, facing their random shooting, the girl turned her body and split into several phantoms that were exactly the same as herself, each holding a emerald jade sword.
"Withering Secret Art: Clone Shadow."
Although it cannot be compared with the Seven Butterfly Incarnation of the Elf Secret Art, this kind of clone shadow is also an excellent group battle skill. (The Seven-part Butterfly Technique, as long as one clone survives, the main body will be unharmed, but the clone that turns into a shadow only has a trace of consciousness of the main body, which will soon dissipate and cannot replace the main body to resist damage)
The emerald sword blade was particularly eye-catching in the dim underground. With a quick swing, it knocked down the gang members one by one. They curled up on the ground and cried, covering their wounds that were pierced in an instant. Only the leader House was left in the back field.
Compared with the elite members of Sequence 2 and Sequence 3 around him, he stood out from the crowd, with a tall and strong figure and the strength of Sequence 5 that was almost perfect.
Looking at the girl who gathered the clone phantom and appeared in front of him again, he frowned and fired the machine gun again, but these bullets seemed to pass through the phantom and fell into the empty space behind the girl.
As a withering sequence, after advancing to the middle and high levels, it can easily switch between ghost and reality. This is like the dragon transformation of the dragon sequence, which is also the characteristic of this extraordinary sequence.
"Damn it!" He cursed, then threw away the gun in his hand and urgently took out a thick pistol from his bosom, which seemed to have golden inscriptions on it.
"Bang!"
The pistol fired, and a scarlet gold bullet shot out with a wave of air, attacking the standing girl.
Finally, this time the girl did not dodge in the virtual form, but blocked and split it with the blade in her hand.
The scarlet gold bullet hit the blade, bursting out golden red sparks and high-temperature metal liquid. Although it was split, it also left black spots on the jade blade. It seems that the strength of the blade was also greatly damaged.
"Haha, the enchanted bullets I bought at a high price are not easy to block." After saying that, he fired in succession, and 5 bullets flew out in just two seconds.
The blade deflected again to block, and the girl in the snow-sleeved red dress also turned her body to avoid the trajectory of the bullet flying past her face.
Finally, after blocking these five special enchanted bullets, the jade sword in her hand also had long cracks and was about to break.
"How can you block it now?" He grinned and retreated quickly, then took out the magazine from his waist and inserted it into the gun again.
In response to such a question, the girl just shook her head and let go of the blade in her hand, letting it shatter on the ground. However, just as House smiled, the girl reached out to the side, and a brand new jade sword condensed in the void, and then was held by her hand.
A light blue airflow rose from the ground, then wrapped around the jade sword in her hand, making the girl's clothes and hair flutter. Then she moved, crossing the distance of a hundred steps in an instant, and the jade sword pierced House's shoulder blade, making his right hand holding the gun lose strength. The blade passed through his body, bringing blood, and then pulled it out, bringing it to the side and rolling to the ground.
If she didn't want to kill, she only needed to cut off the opponent's head when she drew the sword just now, but the scene would be particularly bloody.
Covering his unconscious right arm, House howled and rolled on the ground, then twisted rapidly, trying to avoid the girl's pursuit. However, more than ten seconds later, he realized that the other party did not chase him, but just stood quietly with a sword, watching him flee.
"You..." He gritted his teeth, feeling guilty and afraid, wanting to surrender but also wanting to fight hard.
The short few seconds seemed like a century. In the end, House was still unwilling to give up the secret treasure and everything he had finally discovered. He hammered his chest, and while the girl was not paying attention, he opened the hidden cylinder, revealing one of the pills and swallowed it.
The turbid air flow spread out, and a disgusting, blurred, chaotic, and disorderly invisible thing began to spread. It eroded the surrounding things like a virus, but the speed was not as fast as expected, as if it was too sticky to dissolve.
Although this feeling was ominous, the abundant magic gradually filled House's body, causing it to slowly expand, and the body also slowly grew taller, but this enlargement and heightening was not natural, and the proportions of the limbs and the various parts of the body were inconsistent, giving a sense of distortion and disharmony.
The normal eyeballs bulged and turned gray. The right arm that had been pierced by Tilan and lost consciousness before also turned purple, thick and swollen, three times the size of the left arm at this moment. One leg broke because it could not bear the expansion of the body, but the other leg became extremely thick, and finally a huge monster about nine meters tall appeared in front of the girl.
Although it looked stronger, House seemed to have lost consciousness at this moment, just howling randomly, swinging his arms, and smashing things around him.
"Help."
The old man who was originally tied to the side and some gang members who had lost their fighting power fled from House, but a few of them were caught by House directly because they were too late.
House casually threw these people away like playing with puppets, and then walked towards the place where there were people, as if those living souls were attracting him unconsciously. Faced with
this approaching huge monster, the remaining people either ran away in fear or their consciousness became blurred. They seemed unable to leave even if they wanted to. Everything in front of them became chaotic and various hallucinations emerged.
"Is this... a chaotic phantom?" The girl thought to herself, as if she saw something similar to a year ago.
Could it be that what House discovered in the ruins was this kind of thing? However, compared to last time, the corrosiveness and contamination this time were not strong, as if it had been artificially modified.
He suddenly attacked and the jade sword pierced through the opponent's head in an instant, but after inserting into the eye socket, House did not die. Instead, his right hand quickly retracted and swept towards Tilan.
As a last resort, the girl had to abandon the sword and dodge. Then, she grasped the toothpick-like jade sword, pulled it out, put it in her mouth and swallowed it. The magic power condensed into jade was corroded and then absorbed by him.
The ancient virus of disaster, the soul residue of ancient humans, the undead twisted thing, the by-product of the second destruction of human civilization, this is the Chaos Phantom, the world-destroying natural disaster that once polluted the Milky Way.
