Siren Blade

Chapter 59 The Mystery of Immortality

There were still a lot of blood stains on the girl's face and body, making her look very embarrassed and dirty.And although those wounds have almost recovered, the scars are still dazzling.I don't know if there will be a way to fix it in the future.

After waking up, she froze in place like a fool.I tried to introduce myself to her, and took out of my pocket the work ID I had shown to the head teacher of my alma mater.

This work card has a slightly suggestive effect, which can make people believe that it is a card representing the official security organization.

"You're safe," I told her.

She finally came back to her senses, but her reaction was quite violent and confused.It can be seen that the dark experience in the past has left a deep shadow on her.She cried out in terror and backed away in panic.No matter how hard I tried to negotiate, she would turn a deaf ear and just hug her head, curled up in a corner of the room and shivered.

This order makes me feel very tricky.In fact, the reason why I spared the lives of those two people was that I wanted to kill them in front of her, or simply let her kill them.Personal revenge is also good for mental health, but judging by her attitude, it seems that it is inconvenient to see blood again.From the bottom of my heart, I don't really want those two people to die happily, but it's also inconvenient to do some too cruel things in front of Joan.And if he was separated from him for a long time and concentrated on taking care of those two people, he also had to worry about what accidents would happen to him during this period.

After much deliberation, they finally pleasingly gouged out their eyeballs, cut off their limbs, and threw them into the depths of the thick fog, leaving the task of taking care of them to the devil.Of course, these have avoided the eyes and ears of the other two.But for the time being, let's explain their fate.

Maybe even this level of treatment is still too cruel in Joan's world view, but he looked at the other victims who died in the room, and swallowed his objection, and commented on their end like this , "It deserves it."

Why doesn't this comment apply to me?Even compared to me, they are nothing more than small treacherous and evil people.

The girl still refused to communicate.Probably because I am quite afraid of men, even if I declare myself as an official security officer, it will not be of any use.As soon as she approached, she reacted frantically, and couldn't even utter half a logical sentence, obviously mentally disturbed.

On the contrary, when Joan approached her, her reaction was relatively less intense.It can be seen that she did not misunderstand Joan's gender, it can only be said that Joan's face is really not threatening.Having said that, she still revealed deep suspicion and guard.

"What can I do..." Joan was at a loss.

"I'm sorry, I can only rely on you now." I said.

Seeing me please, he closed his mouth and began to silently think of ways to deal with it.

The girl is still unwilling to clean her body, probably because she regards the blood stains on her body as some kind of protective color.Judging from the shape distribution of her facial features and figure, she should have been an extremely beautiful girl, and the two people before must have been interested in sex because of this.In such an environment without order, beauty often becomes the fuse of misfortune. This kind of tragedy is not uncommon in history.Although I don't know what kind of life she once lived, but she will never be distorted into what she is now.And all because of this sudden nightmare fog.

I then packed up the remains of the other victims in the house and buried them nearby in the backyard for the time being.However, it may be that when the victim's body was being processed, the bloody smell of the body finally attracted the demons. Several demons gathered here and broke the walls of the house in an attempt to attack Joan and the girl.Although I killed all the demons in time, the house could no longer be lived in and had to be changed.

Joan tried her best, even said something like coaxing a child, and finally persuaded the girl to follow us after a lot of hard work.

"Don't worry, the people who will hurt you are gone." Joan said softly to the girl, and the girl gave me a startled look.

Joan seemed to be a little angry at her reaction, and quickly calmed down. Suddenly, she also glanced at me, thought for a while, then turned to the girl, and said in a softer voice than before: "It's not safe here, and you hate it too." Here? We just changed places. You just need to follow me, and don't leave my side."

After a moment of hesitation, the girl followed slowly.

From a utilitarian point of view, the girl is a mere liability to our activities.But I also couldn't ignore her.

I want to see laughter more than tears... This is my original intention.It was trite and boring, but I never forgot it for a moment.

Therefore, I also hope that this girl who has been tortured in the nightmare can one day return to the bright track of life.

However, the accident still happened.

On the way of moving, the succubus and the hunter attacked.
-
The reason why I want to take Joan around is to find clues about the whereabouts of the succubus.This is actually like looking for a needle in a haystack, but I can't convince myself to stay in a certain place without doing anything.Therefore, the succubus appeared in front of me on its own initiative, which can be regarded as exactly what I wanted.

And it was obvious that she must have attacked with a chance of winning.Having said that, I can't help but be puzzled.Even if there is a chance of winning, it is still a risky thing to be an enemy of me. With the character she has shown before, she should keep a distance from me. Anyway, I can't find her.Now he insists on showing up to make a surprise attack, what is the reason behind this?
Closer to home, when we passed a certain street, the wall next to it shattered, and the familiar bone whip quickly passed through the gravel and dust, and hit the vital part of my throat.

This is undoubtedly the attack of the succubus.

I sensed the killing intent ahead of time, and summoned the Siren Blade to block it.However, the strength of this blow far exceeded my expectations—I was knocked out on the spot.

In a blink of an eye, I flew upside down for more than 30 meters like a home run baseball, and Joan and the girl had completely disappeared from sight.Is this huge force really the attack of the succubus?If it wasn't me who used this trick, but a warlock at the level of a middleman, maybe a face-to-face meeting would kill him on the street.

Before he had time to land, he saw a figure of a man appearing above him without warning.

It's a hunter!
As soon as this powerful law-enforcing warlock trapped in a charm appeared, he burst into a posture of burning his lifespan, aimed at my chest, and bombarded me with all his strength with his fists wearing iron gloves.

I couldn't dodge it in the air, so I had to block again, and then it fell to the ground at high speed like a smashed volleyball.I barely adjusted my posture during the fall to land on both feet, but under the huge fall force, not to mention my feet, even my knees were deeply nailed into the ground.Before he had time to pull out his legs, Succubus's bone whip swept across from the depths of the dense fog again, and the speed of the end far exceeded the sound.

I heard that the whip is a weapon that can easily break through the sound barrier. Even if an ordinary person swings the long whip with all his strength, it is possible to make a loud sonic boom at the end, let alone in the hands of the succubus at this time?I saw the bone whip pulled towards my face with appalling power. Even if this blow hit the armor plate made of alloy, it would be easily pulled into pieces like tearing rice paper.

But this time I didn't continue to be beaten passively, but quickly swung the siren blade to meet the bone whip.The two weapons collided in the air, making a violent noise like a bomb exploding.The huge sound waves caused all the glass doors and windows on both sides of the street to explode at the same time, and even the surrounding thick fog was temporarily forced back in a large circle under the strong wind.

The bone whip retreated back into the thick fog, and then, the figure of the succubus finally emerged from the thick fog.

She had a winning expression on her face, but she didn't say a word of nonsense, chasing and fighting again.And the hunter appeared behind me like a ghost, cooperating with the attack in a combined attack.

Under the front and back attacks of the two, I was so suppressed that I couldn't find a chance to fight back.

The hunter is still the same hunter, and his strength has not changed.However, the succubus has become a different person. If she was only a master in the folk evaluation standards in the past, then she can be called a strong one even by the evaluation standards of the Security Bureau.

In the past, the combination of her and the middleman did not pose a decent threat in my opinion, but the current combination of her and the hunter has caused me to fall into an unexpected bitter fight.

If there is one thing to be thankful for, it is that they did not kidnap Joan and the girl to take hostage tactics.But whether it's a middleman or a succubus, are they all so convinced that hostage tactics won't work for me?Even though they think so, I am also happy and relaxed, but I feel a little bit complicated.

"Did you release this dense fog?" In order to avoid being attacked, I walked through the foggy streets at high speed, and tried to test her with words, "Also, the breath on your body..."

After these few fights, I have more or less figured out the secret of her becoming stronger, the scale feather.She gave me a very weird feeling at this time, and a sense of danger exuded from her body was very similar to the sense of danger that I felt from the wooden box back then.Since the original wooden box contained the devil of mist, could it be that she let the devil of fog possess her body?

"That's right, I did it." She admitted unabashedly, "Are you satisfied after hearing this? Then go to hell!"

She didn't intend to have a long discussion with me at all, and waved the bone whip far faster than the speed of sound to bombard me again.

But this time, I grabbed the bone whip directly with my left hand.

As soon as I touched it, my left hand was pumped so that the blood and flesh burst, like a bomb exploded in the palm, and most of the flesh in the palm was removed, exposing the white bones.But then, I twisted my wrist and let the bone whip wrap around me, and pulled back hard.

The succubus in the distance was involuntarily pulled closer by me.

Like a executioner raising a guillotine, I raised the siren blade in my right hand to strike her deadly.

"What—" She was dumbfounded, but she couldn't avoid or stop it.

Fighting regardless of physical damage is my usual way of fighting. In the past, I didn't even care about my brain being smashed, but now it's just my left palm being damaged, so there's nothing to be surprised about.

The hunter activated the space transfer immediately, and flashed to my side, trying to stop my killing move.But the way he moves I've tasted one too many times.With just one glance, I predicted the "falling point" of his space transfer.

Not only that, I also saw more key information.In this battle, there seems to be some kind of malfunction in his space transfer, and the distance of a single transfer is far less than the last battle.In terms of close combat, it has little effect, but in other areas, it is probably beyond its capabilities.

After the figure appeared, he was caught off guard and kicked in the chest by me, and shot into the distant store like a football being volleyed vigorously.

Almost at the same time, the siren blade slashed down mercilessly, smashing that charming head of the succubus into pieces on the spot.

She is dead.

But then, the dumbfounded person was replaced by me.

Something that I couldn't have imagined happened—her body turned into mist and disappeared, while the mist in the distance recondensed, and another succubus appeared.

how is this possible?No matter what kind of undead body and regenerative power can escape from the attack of the siren blade, such a thing has never happened in the past.Even if it was the clone that I killed just now, the main body should die with the death of the clone.

I don't think Succubus really has any immortality beyond Siren Blade, however, it's also true that she didn't die.

What's the secret here?I couldn't help wondering, could it be that the succubus is twins, and the one who died just now was her sister?But the succubus in front of me is the same person as the succubus who died just now, my eyes and perception will not deceive myself.

Her eyes were burning, and she swung her whip again, trying to suppress me with the hunter.

At this time, my left palm was also rapidly repaired under the regeneration force supported by the Siren Blade, as if every muscle fiber had become a wriggling and multiplying worm, quickly wrapping around the bone at a speed visible to the naked eye, and re- Blood vessels, nerves, and epidermis grow, and it becomes as if it has never been damaged.

In less than 2 minutes, I grabbed her flaw again and smashed her head.

She still didn't really die, but re-formed her own body in the thick fog.This time I observed the whole process of her death and resurrection very carefully.I feel that at the moment of her death, it seems that some spirit fragments did enter the inside of the siren blade.That feeling is difficult to describe in detail in words, it is purely mysterious intuition.

It's just that the feeling of killing her seems to be the same as that of killing those demons, and the spirit fragments harvested don't seem to be her own spirit fragments.

Sure enough, this is not her body?But even if a clone is used, it shouldn't be able to escape the lethality of the Siren Blade.

Or is this not even her clone, but a mass-produced special demon that mimics the appearance of a succubus?That's why they show up one after another, and have a combat power that Succubus himself doesn't possess?This speculation is even more outrageous, and I don't feel like I'm hitting the bull's-eye at all.

As I've mentioned occasionally before, my awareness is perfect for combat.One of the specific manifestations is that as long as it is something related to combat, even if it is a random guess, once the guess is right, there will be a clear sense of hit in my heart.

At this time, nearly 10 minutes have passed since the start of the battle, which sounds very short, but in such a fast-paced, full-strength battle, it has been delayed for a long time.And the succubus still didn't breathe at all, she seemed to have unlimited physical strength.

I should have been unsustainable after a maximum of 1 minute, but the Siren Blade can burn the spirit fragments stored inside to continue to support my strength.I have killed many demons in the dense fog before, and with the spiritual body fragments stored in the past, even if I have to fight with all my strength for an hour, I still have enough confidence.

But hunters can't do that.Although I don't know what method the succubus used, but that method obviously doesn't apply to hunters.The latter also used the demon domain spell that burns the lifespan, which is originally a way of fighting for life in a short period of time. Even if the lifespan can last, the physical endurance can't last.The hunter's speed and strength have dropped significantly compared to before, and his whole body has become more and more haggard, and his eyes have gradually become lax.If you continue to fight, even if you die suddenly in the battle, it will not be surprising.

The situation was slowly turning towards me, and the succubus' expression became more and more anxious, as if he couldn't understand why I wasn't exhausted yet.

After I killed her again, she seemed to react suddenly.

"This feeling... are you absorbing the fragments of my spiritual body?" Her expression changed drastically, "You are taking my power away? Could it be that the reason why you have been able to fight like this is because... ..."

It looked like she had misunderstood something, but it wasn't too far off.The spirit fragments obtained from her are much more than those obtained from other demons. As long as I kill her a little faster, I can really use her power to kill her. deal with her.And it's not difficult to speed up the frequency. Once the hunter loses the ability to fight, the succubus can't continue to be evenly matched with me like it is now.

Her original chance of winning was probably based on this inexplicable immortality and bottomless battery life, but her calculations were in vain.

No matter what immortality has a limit, although I don't know the principle of her immortality, but as long as I kill her hundreds, thousands and tens of thousands of times, I will be able to kill her completely sooner or later.

I don't have any other skills that I can show, except that I am very good at killing people.

Unfortunately, she seems to have no motivation to continue to accompany me.After yelling angrily, she turned around and ran like the last time she cooperated with the intermediary, while her body collapsed into mist during the escape process, and in the end she was no longer distinguishable from the thick mist.

She could escape in this way, but the hunter couldn't.

The hunter was at a loss looking at the direction in which the succubus was fleeing, but when my eyes fell on him, his expression suddenly changed.
