Chapter 41: Reversal of Situation



Looking at Guette who was gradually approaching, Livia sat up with difficulty, gasping for breath.

The intense physical exertion just now caused his breathing to become heavy and his hands and feet to tremble slightly. As his strength faded, the weakness that had been suppressed in his body quickly emerged.

Feeling powerless, Livia helplessly watched Guet walk up to her and stretch out his hand covered with a layer of strange blood light.

Just when Livia wanted to mobilize the remaining power of the seal in her body to fight to the death, a sword sounded behind her.

Then there was a flash before his eyes, and Guet, whose hand was about to touch him, had disappeared.

Feeling the dark sword energy passing by him, Livia turned his head with difficulty to look towards the direction where the sword sound came from.

I saw a figure galloping from a distance, carrying an unstoppable momentum, and soon arrived in front of Livia.

Delon casually cut off the two attacking flesh tentacles and looked at Livia who was slumped behind him.

Fortunately I made it in time.

"How is it, are you okay?"

"Fortunately, I'm fine. The main problem is with Purvis..." Livia said in a low voice.

Hearing this, Delon looked at the knight lying motionless on the grass on the other side. His mood became heavy and he nodded with a gloomy face.

Then he turned around and looked at Guete who was hiding behind the flesh and blood tentacles. He clenched the sword in his hand with some anger and slashed out two sword beams.

············Damn it, what on earth was Will doing, letting him come here?

He hurriedly dodged the two black sword beams that broke through the air, and looked at Delon who was slashing at him with a sword right after the sword beams. Guet's face looked very ugly.

As the saying goes, good fortune never comes in pairs, and misfortune never comes alone.

It was already difficult for Guet to deal with Delon's continuous offensive. Suddenly, he felt his connection with the blood mist formation gradually weakening, and his heart sank.

Those guys are so disappointing, they are all wiped out now?

When Delon saw Guette dodging in front of him, he was suddenly stunned. Naturally, he would not miss this good plan. Black air currents surged from his body and wrapped around the sword blade. He took a big step forward and stabbed out with the sword in his hand.

The distance between the two sides was rapidly closing. Seeing the sword tip already in front of him in just a moment, Guet waved his right arm. Blood light condensed and flowed at his fingertips like a stream, drawing a blood-colored spider web towards Delon.

Delon snorted coldly, and the sharp sword in his hand was tilted slightly. He urged the power of shadow to be poured into the sword and slashed it along. In an instant, the bloody spider web was chopped into small pieces of blood and energy, and the long sword continued to slash towards Guet without slowing down.

Seeing his bloodthirsty spider web being shattered by the power of the sword without even a moment's delay, Guet was not surprised. After all, it was just a small trick. If it could really hold Deron back, he would have to worry about whether Deron had any other tricks.

Guet suddenly stopped and sneered as he looked at the shadow power in front of him that had condensed into a substance visible to the naked eye.

"I'm not stupid enough to fight you. You should deal with the demon tree instead."

As soon as he finished speaking, blood surged in all directions, turning into blood-colored air currents that rushed towards Delon. The Blood Demon Tree behind him suddenly sprang out dozens of strange tentacles made of flesh and blood, which twisted like water snakes and insects and coiled towards Delon.

Although the flesh and blood tentacles seemed to spread very slowly, they surrounded Delon's body several meters away in an instant.

Ignoring the changes around him, Delong concentrated on slashing the sword. The sword rang out crisply and finally turned into a leopard's roar.

When the sharp sword in Delon's hand, which was shrouded in black airflow, slashed, three or four layers of thin films with a faint blood color appeared on the surface of Guette's clothes, blocking the sword from cutting down, but it only stopped the sword for one second. Under the infusion of Delon's power, the film was shattered by the large amount of shadow power on the sword.

However, the one second I gained was enough for me to dodge. Looking at Delon in front of him, Guette showed a sarcastic expression, and at the same time his body began to appear and disappear, as if turning into a residual shadow.

The sword blade passed through the body of the person in front of him, but there was no feeling of touching a real object. Delon frowned as he looked at Guette who suddenly became illusory.

His eyes fell on his feet, and he saw a faint pattern flashing on the grass under Guette's feet.

Magic circle?

I didn't expect that he had such a trick up his sleeve, but... Looking at Guette's sarcastic expression, Deron's mouth corners slightly raised.

"You are pretty good, but it's a pity that you were not really unscathed before."

Hearing the inexplicable words suddenly spoken by the person in front of him, Guette, who had become illusory and was about to disappear, was stunned for a moment. The next moment, as if he thought of something, his eyes suddenly widened and his face changed drastically.

Too late!

Delon suppressed the smile on his face and shouted, and as he shouted, the long sword in Guette's illusory body burst into a dark and mysterious light.

whoosh!

A blood light appeared in the sky above the Blood Demon Tree, and a figure landed on the treetops and was caught by two tentacles.

With a muffled groan, Guette felt the soft touch on his back, and a trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.

I was too careless. I didn't expect that the arrow could not be completely blocked, and a trace of shadow power seeped into my body.

He ordered the demon tree under him to move him from the tentacles to the trunk and sit up. He raised his right arm with some trembling to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, and then looked at the huge hole in his abdomen with some self-mockery.

He sent out a mental wave with some difficulty, and the Blood Demon Tree reflected a red light on him. After a few seconds, a wisp of dark mist emerged from his right shoulder and disappeared in the red light.

Looking at the hollow abdomen, which was more serious than a bleeding wound even though no blood was leaking out, Guette felt powerless.

You know, if he bleeds, there is still a possibility of healing, but turning into a hole like now means that his strength and life can only continue to flow through this hole. If he had not taken the "Blood of Grace" before, he would probably have died in that blow, but the current situation also means that he will not live long.

In that case, I can’t let you off easily!

! !

Guet's face became ferocious and showed a look of madness.

············Seeing that Delon seemed to have dealt a heavy blow to the cultist, Livia, who had recovered some strength, stood up tremblingly and walked to Delon's side.

"How's it going? Did you get rid of him?"

"That sword could indeed have killed him, but there seemed to be an evil force in his body, which saved his life when my power exploded."

Delon looked at Guette who was sitting under the magic tree not far away and said with some confusion.

"ah?

Didn't that kill him?"

"Don't worry, that force only temporarily saved his life. If nothing unexpected happens, he won't live for more than half an hour."

Looking back at the somewhat surprised Livia, Deron shook his head and said with a smile.

After hearing Delon's explanation, Livia breathed a sigh of relief. She thought that this cultist really was like a villain who could never be killed.

Then he remembered something and looked at Purvis, whose life or death was unknown, and was about to say something...
