Siren Blade

Chapter 124 Battle Hidden
Yuchi's blood armor became like a burly demon's body, and from the armor erupted a stinky and evil spiritual wave like burning flesh.If it is in the eyes of a person with keen perception, he can still vaguely see scarlet flames wrapping around his whole body.One can't help but feel that those who are licked by that ominous flame will not be burned, but will be dissolved to death ugly like a candle melting.

When he rushed forward with this flame, he was no longer like a human being, but more like a chaotic creature breaking out of an oil painting depicting hell, everything he passed was destroyed in the tyrannical roar.I had to buy time for Qiao An and Li Yan to escape, so I intercepted the storm without hesitation, and summoned the Siren Blade to slash it with all my strength.

There is no doubt that Yuchi used the demon spell of burning life.I really didn't expect him to use this trick without any scruples from the very beginning.Looking back at his battle with the blue bird, the reason why he burned his lifespan at that time was not necessarily because catching the blue bird alive was very important to him, but more likely because he was in a dreamy state of immortality at that time.If the act of sacrificing lifespan is regarded as a kind of "injury", then as long as he "wakes up" in the dream, the lost lifespan will return to his body.Therefore, for him at that time, the life span of offering sacrifices was about equal to "sacrificing nothing".

But what now?Since his fantasy immortality is based on this collective dream, this place should be equivalent to his own reality for him.The lifespan sacrificed here can never be regained.

Is his own life so insignificant to him?Or is it so important to him to stop the plan of our saboteurs?Or—he temporarily gave up his dream of immortality, and no longer regards dreams as reality?
For ordinary warlocks, even if the venue for sacrificing life is a dream, it is by no means unreasonable.But this dream is very special, unless it is regarded as reality, otherwise even if the life is sacrificed, it will be restored after waking up.Yuchi probably took advantage of this point——when I thought of this point, I felt a feeling of "hitting the bull's-eye".Yes, this conjecture is correct.

But to me, to Siren Blade, it doesn't matter where he sees reality.As long as I kill him here, he will surely die.

Unfortunately, the reality is skinny, and Yuchi in the state of sacrifice is really much stronger than me.

Just the first blow with him, I can feel it. At this moment, the power relationship between me and him is like a squatting at home who has never done serious exercise and meets a muscular person who soaks in the gym every day. There is no direct confrontation. No chance.In the past, Jade Bird was able to persist for so long when fighting him because he adopted passive avoidance tactics, but I had to intercept him head-on.

It didn't take long before I was defeated, my chest was severely crushed by the heavy fist of his armor, and I flew upside down tragically to the green belt by the roadside.But he turned around and continued to chase Qiao An and Li Yan.

Fortunately, although the time I won was short, it was still enough.Qiao An and Li Yan disappeared after fleeing into the nearest alley.Originally, it was impossible for them to escape, but the characteristic of this dream is that the space is chaotic, and the layout of the city changes at any time. It often happens that when you look back, you will find that the road you have traveled has changed beyond recognition.I thought this spatial phenomenon was troublesome at first, but now I am blessed by this characteristic.I don't know whether Qiao An deliberately took advantage of this characteristic or pure luck, but it really helped a lot.

I instantly regenerated all my injuries and attacked Yuchi again.

He turned around abruptly, and bit my face viciously with murderous eyes.

"Do you really think I can't kill you?" With a swing of his giant blade, he blatantly killed you like a lion and a tiger preying on it.

Using my combat-focused awareness, I dodge his attacks and look for opportunities to counter.Although I wanted so much to kill this guy who coveted the blue bird's life, the reality is that it is so difficult for me to even struggle to survive under his blade.

I felt the blood in my body was rushing uncontrollably. This was him using blood spells in an attempt to disrupt my movements.In the case of a main-level warlock as the opponent, his blood spell seems to only interfere with my movements by a tiny bit, but it is very likely to play a role in "crushing the camel" in this kind of tightrope-like battle. The crucial role of the "last straw".

The voice of the blue bird came again from the bluetooth headset, "Li Duo, run away too!"

"Wait a little longer," I said, "I want to buy some more time for those two to escape."

Yuchi should have discovered that the collective dream was invaded by outsiders through some means, and then locked our location to find it.In other words, he has a way to lock Joan again and chase after him.

For him, it should be more important to hunt down the other two first, but now he chooses to deal with me first.I try to analyze what this situation means - although I don't know whether he locked us with spells or props, but it should not be as convenient as Joan's succubus instinct in the dream.In other words, as long as I continue to pester him, he shouldn't be able to spare the time to lock the other two again.

Defending, dodging, retreating... After more than a dozen rounds, I finally managed to seize the opportunity and hit him on the head.

The siren blade hit his head armor hard, but failed to cause the slightest damage.

He laughed wildly, and almost at the same time he aimed at my head and chopped down the blade.I barely avoided it, but my right arm holding the weapon was cut off.In the next moment, my right arm was repaired and the Siren Blade returned to my hand, but the overwhelming disadvantage still remained unchanged.This is the first time since I debuted as a law enforcement warlock that I have been suppressed to such an extent by force.Even biting blood is not as powerful as Yuchi at the moment.

If it is said that Bite Blood suppressed me with ingenious and wonderful tactics, then Yuchi suppressed me with violence.

The fact that the Siren Blade couldn't break through his armor was less of a surprise than I expected.In terms of sharpness alone, the Siren Blade is not considered excellent.The evil claws, the blood-biting rapier, Yuchi's armor, these things can not be damaged in the collision with the Siren Blade, and Yuchi's armor and blade are made of the same material, so it is only natural that they cannot break through.

So should the Siren Blade be used as a medium for outputting Dao Gang?I have practiced this move secretly recently, and its destructive power is huge enough to wipe out a main-level warlock like the evil move in one blow, and it is absolutely no problem to break through the indestructible defense in front of me.However, I can't find a chance to release it at all.

It's not that it can't be released, but that if it is released, it will definitely be avoided.My fighting instincts told me so clearly.

The destructive power of Dao Gang is indeed huge, but such a powerful move will definitely be captured by the opponent's awareness.What's more, the shortest charging time for this move is one-tenth of a second. If you want to pursue the ultimate power, it will take longer, which leaves more room for the opponent to prepare.Originally, this shouldn't be a trick to turn the tables in a desperate situation, but a one-shot killer move that must first force the opponent to reveal a huge flaw before it has a chance to be released.But how can I force Yuchi to show his flaws?
Unless...unless I have a way to hide from Yuchi's perception.

But where do I get such a powerful hiding power?My hiding ability is so poor that even a demon warlock at the level of sneaking up to the middleman can't do it.

Thinking of this, Lie Que's advice to me suddenly flashed in my mind.

——But I don't think that your hidden power is insufficient, it's just that you can't bring it out.

——Since awareness and hiding are both your basic abilities as a warlock, and your awareness can only be brought into full play in battle, why can't your hiding?
Hide, hide... hide in battle?
can i really do it
No, I shouldn't be thinking "can it be done".I have to.

"What's the matter, do you only have this level? What kind of demon Li Duo, you are just a worthless waste. It's a shame that I used my avatar to hold you back last time, worrying about what will happen if you meet the blue bird , In the end, you are nothing more than that!" Yuchi increased his strength in his laughter, and attacked me with contemptuous words, trying to make me shake my posture in anger.

At the same time, under his arrogant tone, I felt that he was actually observing me with a terrifyingly calm mind.His awareness was like a medical scanner scanning me inside and out for things I might be hiding.Even with such an advantage, he never relaxed his vigilance at all. On the contrary, the closer he was to victory, the more cautious he became.

I silently accumulated the knife gang.It is no longer the medium of the palm, but the medium of the Siren Blade.Surging, fiery, and extremely uncontrollable power, like a wild horse about to run free, concentrated on the axe.I tried my best to tell myself to hide, as if I didn't do anything, I tried my best to avoid Yuchi's attack, and secretly looked for a chance to release.

He didn't seem to see what trick I was preparing, but did he really not see it?Or is it just acting?The huge power held in my hand was so surging that it seemed that it was about to come out in the next second. How could he not notice it?
However, I must stick to the end and hide until the last moment.

Life or death, I will bet everything on this blow.

I was finally suppressed by him to the point of desperation, and I no longer had the strength to evade his attack.At the same time, my accumulated power has reached the limit.

"Die, Li Duo, the devil!" With these words, his blade aimed at my head again and chopped off.

I swung the siren blade violently, unleashing all my power from the bottom up.

A huge indigo blue sword like a tall building rose from the ground.
-
A second later, the knife gang collapsed and turned into indigo blue light particles all over the sky.

Light particles like fine snow are slowly falling around.

Not far away, Yuchi knelt on the ground gasping for breath as if he was dying. He suffered a tragic injury that would be euphemistically fatal to a human being.In the nick of time, he narrowly avoided the ending of his head being split open, but Dao Gang still destructively destroyed his armor like splitting corrugated paper, and split his upper body in two from the right hip to the left shoulder.

My all-or-nothing tactic worked, and the "hide in battle" line of thinking was on the right track.He really didn't notice my hidden ultimate move, and I reversed the outcome.

But there are also places beyond my expectations.

That is, he was injured to such an extent that he was still alive.

Not only did he not die, he also used his own blood, which can switch between liquid and solid at will, to reconnect his separated body in an instant.Under his control, the blood flew from one section to another, as if there were invisible blood vessels erected in the middle, continuing the blood circulation that should have disappeared.

His wounds were not repaired, and the wounds cut by the siren blade could not be repaired, but he used this method to forcibly piece together his torso.If it were any other warlock, this would be a fatal injury, but he can still survive in this situation.

I remembered Lie Que's evaluation of Yuchi.Yes, Lie Que did say that Yuchi had done various modifications to his body, so he had a strong ability to survive, even if he was struck by lightning and turned into coke, he might not die.So it seems that it is not unreasonable to be split into two halves and not die.

"Why..." Yuchi said absentmindedly, "How did it become like this..."

I didn't mean to talk nonsense with him.Since he is not dead, then I will help him escape.I rushed towards him without hesitation, but when he saw that I was chasing after the victory, he roared violently, the blood armor on his body re-condensed, and swung his blade to fight back at me.

"I'm going to kill you!" he roared like a beast.

The speed and strength of this blow were not at all inferior to his intact state.Perhaps it is because his powerful combat power comes from his invincible blood armor, not his own body, so physical damage will not hinder his combat performance.I immediately parried the defense, and at the same time, I found that he had no time to affect my movements with blood spells.This is probably because he has to concentrate on maintaining his life with blood magic.

I plan to do the same trick again, hiding and accumulating knives as before.

However, I feel that this time will definitely not be as smooth as last time.He has already personally experienced the fact that I have a hidden ultimate move, and has also developed a targeted awareness of it, so this time he must be able to catch the signs in advance.If I was at a similar level to him, then I would probably still be able to give it a try, but his speed and strength are far beyond mine, and my next attack will definitely be avoided by him.

My only option is to adopt delaying tactics.In his current state, he probably couldn't survive for too long, and his real body must have suffered the same level of heavy damage under the linkage damage of the Siren Blade.Although according to my intuition, he seems to be able to "live and dance" for a while longer, but no matter how tenacious his vitality is, sooner or later he will reach the limit.Delay to the end is still my victory.

At this moment, the voice of the blue bird rang in my ears, "Li Duo, Qiao An has brought your father out of the dreamland!"

I breathed a sigh of relief, but the next moment, her voice tightened the strings in my heart again.

"Also..." she said extremely nervously, "Another main-level spiritual wave reaction is approaching you at high speed!"
