i'm really only human

Chapter 226 World Boss
"Ding!"

Sacrifice Day.

The villagers dressed in white clothes for the ceremony rang the bells and walked towards the coast, white banners fluttered in the wind, and the dressed-up witch in the middle was lifted by a special wooden sedan chair, ready to be sent to the temporary altar.

"bell!"

"My daughter!"

The parents of the girl who was chosen as the witch followed the team step by step. The honest peasant couple looked a bit useless, and the closer they got to the altar, the more panicked they became.

The villagers who accompanied the sedan chair were also concerned, all of them had gray hair, and there were only a few young adults.

The boy Tomorrow's Dream and the girl from his childhood are watching from a distance on the cliff.

As the sacrificial team marched, the sky above the sea began to change color, white mist filled the air, and the howling wind and waves intensified.

"Tomorrow's dream, is it really okay? That person..."

"It must be fine," the young man said calmly, "I saw with my own eyes that he drove away the demon demon that attacked the outer village, and that man's master is the legendary ghost."

"But will that person really come?"

"Yes, I should, right?"

Under the girl's gaze, the boy faltered and promised, but his fingers were so tense that they were covered with sweat.

He clearly agreed to come here today, but he never saw Xia Chuan.

"call!"

A palace mountain rose slowly from the sea, and the dragon's head hovering could be vaguely seen amidst the demonic aura.

"Offer a sacrifice!"

The wooden door at the bottom of the palace mountain opened, and two ghostly green will-o'-the-wisps emerged.

"Bell!" The old farmer choked up and stopped his daughter from walking out of the sedan chair, "Quick, run away..."

"Let me go, father," the witch lowered her head in a trembling voice, "If you can protect everyone... there is no other way, right?"

"bell!"

The figure of Xia Chuan's Dragonrider emerged from the reflection of the corner of the reef, and the Wushuang Dragon behind him floated on the surface of the water with a deep roar.

This demonized sprite is much bigger than Wushuanglong, but it doesn't have any advantage in breath.

As a monster, Wushuanglong has also reached the peak of the mirror world, and even without him, he is by no means weaker than Orochi.

That should work, right?

The same monster will not implicate the village. It would be best if the big snake can be driven away.

At least this sacrifice can be destroyed.

The rest depends on whether he can use the local ghosts or get the power of ghosts.

He definitely won't let go of this demonized sprite boss.

"Roar--!"

The two balls of will-o'-the-wisps floated halfway before they were swallowed by the Wushuanglong who jumped out of the sea in one gulp. The golden flames spread all over the sky amidst the waves of water splashing, and spread along the monster fog.

"what is that?"

"Is it a big snake?"

The villagers were horrified and dropped their clings and hid behind the earth-stone tomb, looking suspiciously at the Wushuanglong who was smaller but equally monster-like.

"It's not a big snake! It swallowed the messenger!"

"My God, how dare it?"

"hold head high!"

The big snake coiled around the palace mountain was calm for a while before it became furious. Its eyes were red and it flicked its tail and flew up. Flame bombs spit out like meteorites. After being avoided by Wushuanglong, waves exploded.

"Bang bang bang!"

Facing the big snake that was bigger than him, Wushuanglong did not show any weakness, and also spit out flames while standing tall.

It is not clear whether the big snake is the strongest in this world, but it is indeed the strongest in the mirror world, and even the golden phoenix has become its belly.

"Roar!"

In mid-air, flames gathered all over Wushuanglong's body, turning into red-gold armor in an instant, incorporating infinite survival power, and completely stabilizing his figure in the world outside the mirror.

Before the big snake recovered from its astonishment, Wushuanglong's entire body directly slammed into it, the Yaowu Palace Mountain collapsed and exploded, and the big snake's screams and roars spread from the depths of the mist.

Size is indeed an advantage, but it also depends on the comparison target.

Compared with Wushuanglong, Big Snake doesn't seem to have any extra strength, and it just relies on its own body.

"boom--!"

The surface of the sea returned to calm with a loud explosion, and it seemed that they all died together.

"That dragon...is it supposed to be a dragon? What's going on? Is it also a demonized demon?"

Tomorrow Dream brought the girl to the villagers.

After waiting for a while but still failing to see the big snake appear, he quickly pulled the witch from the sea back.

"bell!"

"Sister Ling!"

"The imprint is still there, what should I do now?"

"The big snake is gone, it should be fine..."

"How can you be sure it's okay?"

The villagers quickly divided into two groups. One group wanted to take the witch back, while the other insisted that the witch stay.

"If there is an accident, everyone in the village will die!"

"We didn't violate the contract, and it's not our problem now."

"Anyway..."

"call!"

Xia Chuan stood calmly in the sea mirror world, and as the master, he could see the big snake fleeing along the bottom of the sea.

"come back."

Taking a last look at the villagers arguing by the sea, he turned around and took Wushuanglong away from the mirror world.

……

Frozen Ghost Temple.

The mage knelt in front of the Buddha statue and chanted sutras, suddenly opened his eyes, and turned around to look at the girl in kimono who was bouncing outside.

"Your Excellency managed to find this place!"

"Ghost?" The kimono girl licked the saliva from the corner of her mouth, "I can't help it anymore, I must eat that apprentice of yours!"

"Don't think about it!"

The mage jumped up with a cold snort, spread out his transformation tuning fork and tapped his palm lightly, responding crisply to the shock, the surrounding temperature plummeted, and the condensed frozen ghost battle suit was surrounded by flying snow.

"Send you back to the west!"

"boom--!"

When Xia Chuan returned to the temple, he happened to see the frozen ghost flying backwards, screaming, rolling down the steps and turning back into the figure of a mage.

"Grandmaster?"

"God forever?!"

The mage got up in embarrassment, and couldn't help but sighed and beat his chest and feet when he saw Xia Chuan.

"Why did you come back at this time? Didn't you say you were going to do something very important?"

"Easier than expected, and..."

Xia Chuan turned his gaze to the white-headed monster who followed out of the temple, wearing a cloak and armor, with the same aura as in the city before.

"That's the smell," the white-headed monster sniffed his nose intoxicatedly, and the figure of a girl in kimono loomed faintly, "I can feel it, and I can become the strongest demonized demon by eating you!"

"This guy... hurry up, Kaminaga! Go to the main city, the daimyo here can help you!"

The mage gritted his teeth and took out his transformation tuning fork again. He was about to block Xia Chuan, but was pushed aside by a gentle force.

"This is... telekinesis?! When did you..."

"We'll talk later."

Xia Chuan's abdominal belt emerged, and he reached out to grab the toothed bat II who flew out of the void.

"Hmph," the toothed bat II, who had a rare chance to appear on the stage, flapped his wings and examined the white-headed monster, "Despair, you have chosen the wrong target! I will bite!"

"Gaburi!"

The power of the Demon Emperor was injected, and at the same time that black lines appeared on Xia Chuan's cheeks, the dark kiva battle suit was instantly put on in the gust of wind.

"What are you?" The white-headed monster stood with a spear in his hand, and was a little confused about Xia Chuan's details for a while, "A new ghost?"

"Zizi!"

Xia Chuan raised his arms forward, and a seal appeared on the ground under his feet, immobilizing the white-headed monster.

To deal with this kind of character, using Diablo Kiva seems to be a bit of a fuss, and the stronger the power, the stronger the suppression felt here.

However, compared to other forms, the dark kiva seems to have more feeling, and it happens that you can also use the enhanced seal barrier to do some experiments.

"wake up1!"

While raising his hand to pull the white-headed monster closer, Xia Chuan skillfully inserted the attack whistle into his belt, and punched the white-headed monster back with a violent punch.

"boom--!"

"Ugh!"

Under the impact of red and black energy, the whole body of the white-headed monster is in a state of collapse. Even if its level is far higher than that of ordinary demons, it seems that it cannot withstand the killing blow of the dark kiva.

Fortunately, there are world rules, and they are not eliminated directly.

"Master," Xia Chuan turned to the stunned mage, "can you give it a final blow?"

"I?"

With trembling fingers, the mage looked at the white-headed monster who was bound by the seal and screamed in pain.

Could it be that this disciple made a mistake in his practice and became a demonized demon?

But this is too strong, there is no reason at all.

Wiping off his cold sweat secretly, the mage bit the bullet and stepped forward to transform.

Although I don't understand it, it seems that I can only do it.

"freeze!"

Still beating the tuning fork for traction, the crisp sound seemed to cause unknown changes in the mage's body, and he merged with the elemental power in a blink of an eye to transform into a frozen ghost.

"Damn it!" The white-headed monster suffered continuous electric shocks from the sealing barrier. Seeing the frozen ghost approaching, its roar turned into smoke and dissipated. "Wait for me! I will never let you go!"

"This……"

The frozen ghost watched the white-headed monster disappear hesitantly.

In the past, it would be a good thing for such a powerful demon to be beaten away, but now...

"These guys really want to escape, and we have no choice but to deal with them directly."

"I know."

Xia Chuan silently canceled the transformation.

He didn't care about the threat of the white-headed monster.

He is still some distance away from the existence of the Black God, but in any case, he is an existence beyond the limits of human beings, even if he does not transform himself, he is enough to protect himself.

"Shenyong?" The mage called out tentatively, "What are your plans next?"

"Next?"

Xia Chuan collected his thoughts and said.

"Of course, continue to practice and try to transform into a ghost."

"You still need to practice?" The mage felt as if he had been slapped, "I want to worship you as my teacher!"

Not to mention the unknown transformation form, the spell alone seems to be far ahead of him, and the seemingly soft telekinetic technique makes him unable to resist.

"After all, you are so powerful..."

"These are two different things," Xia Chuan interrupted, "It doesn't matter how good I am, the key is how to transform into a ghost."

The mage was at a loss: "Isn't it important?"

Xia Chuan put away the flying tooth bat II and said: "In short, let's practice as before, maybe we can find some tricks..."

"What's the trick?"

The mage blushed.

Before treating Xia Chuan as a disciple, he habitually said a lot of nonsense.

who knows……

"My experience is only hard work. If you have any confusion, I can ask other companions."

Xia Chuan felt a little helpless in his heart.

The change in the mage's attitude made him uncomfortable.

But it seems impossible to go back to the way of getting along with each other two days ago.

"Master, do you know where the Ringing Ghost is?" Xia Chuan continued to ask while thinking about it.

Since it was a copy of "Sounding Ghost", he still wanted to get in touch with the protagonist.

Maybe he is just not suitable for the inheritance of frozen ghosts.

"Yes, yes," the mage said in a deep voice, "but the ringing ghost seems to have retired from being a ghost because of something."

……

future timeline.

Level 5 ghost knight Matsuo led the 01 team to the top of the mountain, overlooking the modern city under the night.

"No one understands this world better than me. Demonic demons cannot be eliminated. From ancient times to modern times, the battle will never stop. Demonic demons will be resurrected every once in a while."

Matsuo looked at the moonlight and turned into a tuning fork.

"There is only one way to pass the level, and that is to integrate me with the big snake!"

"Then you are still a knight?" The captain of the 01 team asked with a frown.

"What does it matter if you're not a knight? It doesn't matter if you're a knight or a weirdo, as long as you're strong enough!"

Matsuo calmly pressed the tearing pain in his heart.

He is no longer a knight, and has become a demonized demon after entering this world.

But it was precisely because of this that he was able to obtain the mystery of the Demonic Demon, and at the same time opened his own exclusive dungeon camp.

"At that time, you may still be able to get enough resources to be promoted to the fifth-level knight, or do you have any scruples as the champions of the Skynet competition?"

"Of course not," Captain 01 said with a stern face, "This time we will not only become level 5 knights, but also be on the list of knights...but what are you going to do?"

"I need to sacrifice the ghosts of this city, use the power of the demonized demon to go back to ancient times, and fuse with the big snake before it is sealed."

Matsuo's face was slightly hideous.

As long as he gets the power of the big snake, a level 6 knight is nothing to be afraid of. At that time, he will stand at the apex of this world.
