Chapter 287: Holy Sword of Vonir!
"Al——"
Sally almost shouted out Elsa's real name in desperation.
Anyway, why did Elsa choose to use a pseudonym in the first place? Anyway, she just kept using it now.
The miasma of the Overlord flowed to the ground. Even if people wanted to rescue it, they were powerless and had to escape as quickly as possible.
Ordinary magic shields cannot block miasma, and it is unknown what attribute this attack belongs to in magic. It requires multiple attempts and a little bit of luck to summarize the attribute shield that can resist it.
At least for now, the mercenaries have no time to think about these things.
"Elsa"
Sally looked at the others. There were ten people still alive. While he was thinking, another one died. Elsa's life or death was unknown.
Finally, he made a quick decision.
"Give up the attack and save your life with all your strength!"
That's right, since we can't win no matter what, we might as well delay the time. Delay the time long enough to see more of Overlord Wolnir's moves and accumulate experience for the next battle.
"Also, never get too close to the Overlord!"
They were worried that the teleportation crystal would become ineffective after falling into the abyss, leading to real death, so they might as well choose to be beaten to death by the big skeleton. Even if they turned into meat paste, they could be resurrected, and the worst that could happen was that they would spend a few more coins.
They were overthinking this, because Gong Qiying would not release the real abyss to harm people.
Luckily, the boss fight area is large enough for them to run around.
After they stopped trying to attack, the mercenaries' ability to escape was demonstrated. They immediately scurried out like rabbits, running around the entire venue. After all, on the battlefield, apart from martial arts, escape techniques were a compulsory course for warriors.
I wonder if the mercenaries will remember the days of happy chasing with the mysterious masked men/women when they flee.
Sally's tactics did work in the beginning. He keenly noticed that Overlord Wolnir's lower body was closely connected to the abyss, and it seemed inconvenient to show up.
Although he didn't understand the reason, it didn't stop him from using this feature. With only the upper body, the Overlord's range of movement would be restricted. When the mercenaries had fled to a certain distance, the only thing he needed to be wary of was the miasma.
What a genius plan! I am worthy of being able to come up with such a perfect plan on the spot!
In this way, they can pull the Overlord and take advantage of as many enemy characteristics as possible. The speed of the stormtroopers cannot be underestimated.
"Bang!"
The giant bony hand suddenly slammed down to the ground. It looked like a series of weapon strikes, but Sally immediately sensed the danger.
The next second, snake-like black flames rose and coiled around the Overlord's body. The blazing black flames highlighted the king's majesty even more, and the distorted humanity and cries that flashed from time to time in the flames added a sense of terror to the king's demeanor, just like his identity as a tyrant!
This is the spell he discovered [Black Snake]!
Several thick black snakes of flames spread out on the ground, rushing towards the slowest mercenary at lightning speed. If they touched even a tiny bit of the flame, they would be killed.
“Ahhh!”
The fire rose to the sky, using the mercenaries' bodies as fuel, raising a towering column of fire on the spot!
In the blink of an eye, the number of survivors dropped sharply to three.
"I" Sally almost broke the norms of good family education and blurted out a swear word.
Damn it, I should have thought of it earlier. How could such a mighty Overlord only be able to spit out miasma and clap his hands? There must be more terrifying tricks!
In an instant, there were only two companions left, which made Sally break out in a cold sweat. If the Overlord used this trick again, they would definitely be wiped out.
"Run, keep running!"
Without him saying anything, the only two remaining mercenaries spontaneously began to run for their lives.
At this moment, the abyss surged more violently, forming waves like the sea that eroded a large area outward. Overlord Wolnir also took advantage of this to move forward, instantly closing the distance between him and the mercenaries.
It turns out you can move!
Before Sally could finish being shocked, Warnier waved his hand and released a black mist. A group of skeleton warriors fell from the mist and chased after Sally with vigorous steps.
There are often small monsters around large monsters. I didn’t expect that the Sen Dungeon, which has always liked to break the rules, chose to follow the popular design in this regard.
Fortunately, only skeleton warriors were summoned. If it was a group of Kasas warriors,
Just as Sally had this thought, a group of Kasas warriors poked their heads out from the black fog.
“.”
He decided to give up thinking!
From this he understood that if he wanted to have the strength to fight against Overlord Wolnir, he had to fill the upper limit of the number of people in this area, and they couldn't be small fry, at least all of them had to be elites.
It is also necessary to consider the matching between different professions, the adaptability of magic, and...
No, why did I start thinking again?
He fought with the skeleton warriors that rushed up and finally got rid of their entanglement. In the next moment, he saw Overlord Wolnir and the terrifying demon riding on the abyss and rushing towards him. With a wave of his hand, there were skeletons all over the sky mixed with miasma, which made him unable to stop for a moment.
The last two survivors were also submerged in the skeletons, and he was the only one left.
He couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and didn't want to react even when the skeleton warrior ran to him.
I'm going to kill Overlord Wolnir?
I?
The cursed black snake attacked again, and this time he couldn't escape no matter what.
Anyway, I have done my best to collect this information, and I can finally give an explanation to the leader.
Just when he calmly accepted death, he heard a loud bang, and the heavy sound seemed to make the whole space tremble.
A soft light came from in front of him. Salillo opened his eyes with some confusion, but found that what appeared in front of him was something both strange and familiar.
It was a huge sword that could undoubtedly be called a door panel. It was the weapon that Elsa often used, but Sally was not sure about its current appearance.
The surface of the giant sword was covered with red lines. It was clearly scarlet in color, but the light it emitted was soft. Under the light, the wounds on his body were recovering rapidly.
What about the black snake? It was actually destroyed by that attack just now?
"Elsa?"
There was no one else present at the moment, so Sally spoke out the name of the girl who pulled out the giant sword without hesitation.
"Yeah." Elsa's clothes were mostly torn, her long black hair was messy, and at the moment she was carrying a huge sword with a very fierce expression, she looked a bit like a berserker.
She gripped the hilt of the sword with both hands, and a red light exploded as she swept it across. The nearby skeleton warriors were instantly wiped out. The power of this was no less than that of a king-level large-scale attack magic.
"You rest here, I'll take care of the rest."
Elsa moved as fast as lightning, and the giant sword in her hand was used like a straight sword. Every time she swung it, a huge shock wave gushed out, harvesting the Casas warriors like mowing grass.
The effects of [Cassus Beacon] and [Pope's Right Eye] appeared on her. I didn't expect that the giant swordsman would also use the combo bonus one day.
Even a higher-level Kasas warrior could not last more than a single round at her hands. Her combat performance at this moment was countless levels higher than before.
Maybe I can really exchange a few moves with the Sword Saint Japar!
When her face was washed by the death miasma and pulled by the abyss, she heard the screams of the mercenaries and the speculation that the abyss might cause the teleportation crystal to fail.
The thought of protecting her companions burned fiercely in her heart, never as strongly as it was now. When she came to her senses, the giant sword had changed its appearance.
"What's going on?"
Sally stared at the other person's figure that looked like a god descending from heaven, and something suddenly occurred to him. He immediately stared at the giant sword.
"Could it be the hero's divine weapon?"
Every hero has a divine weapon, but it must be awakened before it can be used. Elsa has never had the experience of awakening a divine weapon before.
Could it be that at this time, after encountering an unprecedentedly powerful enemy, her divine weapon awakened! ?
That majestic performance really fits people's imagination of the artifact.
"wrong."
Sally suddenly shook his head. A divine weapon is a unique weapon that far surpasses any other equipment. Judging from the healing, shock wave and other effects currently displayed by the giant sword, it is only equivalent to the power of a "weapon". What's going on?
Is it possible that awakening is half awakening?
No matter what, exploding in desperate situations is a treatment only afforded to the protagonist. Once such a situation occurs, it means a Jedi counterattack is necessary!
Sally looked at Elsa and couldn't help but clench his fist for her. When he saw her break through the black flames and tumble in the air with her giant sword, like a red meteor smashing towards Vonir, he couldn't help but raise his fist and shout:
“Go ahead!”
As the voice rang out, Overlord Wolnir seemed to be encouraged and moved as well.
Wait, I'm not cheering you on, please don't move!
He raised his right hand, and the pervasive darkness moved, as if something was about to break out of the ground.
The next moment, a holy and pure light bloomed on the ground, and the darkness from the abyss was dispelled for a moment. Everyone who was illuminated by the light felt a sense of security as if they were blessed by the gods.
In the pure white light, a huge sword was summoned and emerged, and was held tightly by Vonir.
[Holy Sword of Vonir]!
[The original holy sword corroded by the abyss]
[After falling into the abyss, Vonir was terrified of the true darkness and prayed to God for the first time in his life. This was one of the relics taken from the priests who were killed in the past.]
It is really incongruous that the Overlord Vonir, who has a terrifying posture like a demon, actually holds a weapon that looks extremely holy.
But he straightened his upper body holding the sword, his tall figure looked down on everything, the colors of black and white intertwined on his body, there was an indescribable shock.
If his previous crouching posture gave people an extremely terrifying feeling, then now he fully displayed the style of a hegemon with the holy sword in hand. The momentum of dominating the world is unstoppable, which makes people wonder how powerful he would be in his prime!
Facing the red meteor transformed by the hero, the Holy Sword of Vonir was wrapped in endless divine light, and it swung upward from bottom to top!
This was probably the third most spectacular scene Sally had ever seen in his life.
The red thunderbolt and the white divine light intertwined and collided, mixed with the twisted abyss and the miasma of death. The nearest Kasas warrior was turned into powder in the collision, and the skeleton warriors a little further away were smashed to pieces by the shock wave and scattered all over the ground.
"I*!"
The shock wave was coming towards him, Sally!
No, I haven't seen the end of this battle between the strong, I am unwilling to -
Before he could even finish his thoughts, he was blown away by the shock wave, and the broken bones of the skeleton warriors pierced him like a hedgehog.
Before he even landed on the ground, he turned into a stream of light and returned to the campfire, at the last moment before leaving.
He saw that Vonir's body stiffened for a moment, but the holy sword continued to dance, and finally smashed the red meteor to the ground!
The red thunderbolt exploded for a final moment before disappearing into the air.
The result is still not good? We said that we will definitely win after the explosion! ?
This is probably the difference between Shonen Jump and Kaito Mushin.
The dark space gradually fell silent. The ancient overlord took back the holy sword and his body disappeared into the darkness.
A moment later, the three corpse magicians had a bonfire.
"Okay, stop being upset. It's just a loss. I'll let the captain help you win it back next time."
Sally and the other mercenaries all had smiling faces and were speaking words of comfort.
Surrounded by them, the brave Elsa hugged her knees in silence, next to her was a giant sword that was broken into two pieces, and the blade had long lost its luster.
A string of tiny pearls fell from the corners of her eyes.
Elsa, who had never cried since the disaster she suffered in her childhood, finally broke down again.
