Chapter 303 Survival(1/2)
from Death
Araba looked at Edward who was charging towards him again, and said with contempt.
Then he waved the sickle in his hand, and countless cold lights shot at Edward and Bogosi again, and the number was greater than before.
But seeing that Edward and Bogosi were about to make the same mistake again, Edward suddenly accelerated and blocked Bogosi behind him.
Then he mobilized all his fighting spirit and forced himself forward against the cold light emitted by Alaba.
After countless cold lights came into contact with the golden fighting spirit covering Edward's body, they burst out into a burst of small dark black sparks. However, sparks of such size almost completely covered the golden fighting spirit on Edward's body.
At this moment, Edward finally rushed to Araba, and he roared. The fighting spirit in Shadow Oath immediately surged, and the entire sword began to glow with a dazzling golden light.
Edward didn't pause at all, and struck Alaba with a horizontal blow. Bogosi also took this opportunity to jump up from behind Edward, and the thunder in his hand emitted terrifying thunder and lightning elements.
Bogosi's attack was like lightning, stabbing directly at Alaba's head.
After only two dull sounds were heard, Edward's Shadow Oath successfully cut Alaba in half, and Bogosi's thunderous swords inserted into Alaba's head accurately.
Just when the two thought they had succeeded, they suddenly felt a sharp pain in their bodies, and then discovered that the sickle in Araba's hand had cut through their bodies at some point.
Edward didn't care about the pain at this time. He struck Alaba in the chest with his right hand, knocking the opponent to the ground, and then backed away to the side while protecting Bogosi.
At this time, Araba, who was knocked to the ground, began to exude a black aura. His lower body, which was cut off by Edward, was also linked to the body by that mysterious aura. The thunderous swords inserted in his head also
It was slowly squeezed out by an invisible force.
Half a minute later, Araba stood up again, as if nothing had happened.
"It actually allowed me to use the art of rebirth, but now the game is over."
At this moment, Araba no longer had the contemptuous expression before, and his skull-like face actually showed a look of shock and anger.
"Souls wandering in the darkness, ghosts wandering between life and death, please accept my call now and return to the world where you wander again..." He did not care about Edward and others who were staring at him not far away.
Araba opened the Magical Embrace and began to chant a long spell.
"That's necromancy, stop him!"
Ellie's face immediately became paler after hearing Araba's spell.
But just when Edward and Bogosi were about to stop Alaba, they both felt a sharp pain that spread throughout their bodies, and they were unable to exert any strength.
At this time, Ellie quickly stepped forward to inspect the wounds of the two of them, and found that the wound opened by Araba's sickle had begun to slowly rot, and the surrounding muscles began to turn black and shrink.
"Oops, it's the death plague! You have to bear with it!" After Ellie finished speaking, regardless of her weak body, she began to treat the two of them.
With the help of the water element, the muscles infected by the plague fell off quickly, the wounds began to heal and new muscles began to grow.
After a while, Ellie finally breathed a sigh of relief, then wiped the sweat on her head and said, "Okay, I have cleaned up the wounds on your bodies, and there should be nothing serious now."
"That's not necessarily true. I think things are bigger now."
Edward looked at Araba in front of him, and his tone was quite helpless. "...Feel sad for the living, and celebrate the death." Araba finally completed the spell, and in an instant, he saw the Magical Embrace in his hand.
A strange dark green light began to emit, and under the light, skeletons slowly crawled out of the ground.
In an instant, Edward and others were surrounded.
"Stupid humans, prepare to become one of us now."
Araba took one last look at the people who were surrounded, and then the skeletons around him began to wave the weapons and shields in their hands, and besieged Edward and others.
"Damn it, it's an armed skeleton." Edward glanced at the skeletons slowly surrounding him and cursed secretly.
But the skeletons obviously didn't give him more time, and the long swords and broadswords in their hands attacked the three of them mercilessly.
Under the siege of the skeleton army, the three of them were like small boats in the ocean. Although Edward and Bogosi were strong enough to pack up a handful of armed skeletons without any effort, the number of opponents in front of them was too huge.
The two of them could smash several skeletons every time they swung their swords, but in the blink of an eye, more skeleton soldiers came to replace them.
Edward no longer cared about any moves at this time, he just activated his fighting spirit savagely, using Shadow Oath to continuously perform horizontal slashes and side slashes, and there were already many wounds on his body caused by the skeleton's weapons.
.
Bogosi on the other side was even more embarrassed. One of the thunderbolts was inserted into Araba and could not be pulled out in time, so now he only has one thunderbolt in his hand.
For Bogosi, who is accustomed to using the two-sword style, he is naturally not used to it. In addition, the defense provided by level 5 fighting spirit is not at the same level as that of level 8 fighting spirit, and he has more wounds on his body than Edward.
The most threatening person at the moment is naturally Ellie, who is a magician. Due to the astonishing consumption of ritual magic, and the forcible use of advanced water purification magic when treating the two of them, her condition at the moment is extremely weak.
I can barely even stand still.
He could only hide next to Edward and Bogosi and watch helplessly as the two men got into a bitter fight.
Suddenly, Ellie saw a huge rock fragment flying straight towards her.
"Edward, be careful!" Ellie warned in a panic when she saw rock fragments flying straight towards her.
By the time Edward turned around, the huge debris was almost on top of his head.
Edward didn't panic at this moment, and stabbed the Shadow Oath forward fiercely in his hand, and the boulder suddenly collapsed under the sharp sword tip and terrifying fighting spirit.
However, just when Edward smashed the boulder with all his strength, he received several more wounds on his body.
What is even more worrying is that the rock giant summoned by Ellie, who spent a lot of mental and physical energy, seems to be no longer able to withstand the attack of the demon bone dragon.
The fragment just now was part of one of the giant's arms.
"Edward, this can't go on like this. I decided to use diffusion waves to determine the winner in one go."
"Don't be ridiculous. Your current body may not be able to withstand even low-level magic, not to mention using level 10 magic. If you hold on a little longer, I will find a chance to open a way for you to leave later."
Edward immediately rejected Ellie's proposal.
“But if this continues, everyone will be consumed.
Besides, what's the point if I'm the only one escaping? Even if we die, we will die together."
Ellie rarely rejected Edward's proposal. However, due to her physical weakness, she couldn't stop coughing just after saying this.
Edward looked back at Ellie's firm eyes, and finally nodded: "Don't die."
After getting Edward's nod of permission, Ellie left and began to chant the spell.
Along with the chanting of the magic incantation, countless magical elements of various colors began to surround Ellie, forming layers of fluctuating magical halos.
"... turned into a raging wind, tearing apart everything in front of me, spreading waves!" At the moment when the spell was completed, countless magic elements gathered around her, as if hearing some kind of call, the raging wind quickly passed by
The entire top of the mountain was covered with countless skeletons and broken rocks flying all over the sky.
After a long time, the dust generated by the explosion of magic elements finally dispersed.
But Edward discovered that apart from them, only four objects on the top of the mountain still maintained their original appearance - Araba and the three-headed demon bone dragon he summoned were still standing intact.
The only difference is that the Demonic Bone Dragon is recovering from the Magical Embrace.
Araba built a dark barrier to resist Ellie's magical attacks, instead of directly relying on Magical Embrace for quick recovery.
"Level 10 Fusion Magic - Diffusion Wave. There are people among humans who have enough power to release such a high-level Fusion Magic. It seems that I really underestimated the enemy."
As Araba spoke, he slowly walked toward Edward and the others with a sickle in hand, "But that little girl has used ritual magic and level 10 fusion magic continuously. She probably can't even stand up now.
Well, let me end your pain as soon as possible and become a part of the world of death."
Facing Araba's approaching step by step, Edward knew that the situation was not good.
Regardless of Alaba's strength, the three demon bone dragons alone were already too much for the three of them, who were already at the end of their rope, to cope with it.
Although Ellie used all her magic power to drive away the death plague from Edward, the pain caused by the plague still spread all over her body. Every time she used fighting energy, she would feel pain like needles all over her body.
And Bogosi's fighting spirit was much weaker than Edward's, so he was naturally more miserable. As for Ellie, apart from barely staying awake, she was not much better than the dead.
There is no immortal existence in this world, it is just our fantasy.
What Yorkby said to him before his death recurred in Edward's mind. If this is true, Alaba must have his weakness, but what is it?
While Edward was still worried about Alaba's strength, Alaba had already taken the lead in attacking.
His silhouette suddenly flashed and he immediately appeared next to the three of them. The sickle in his hand struck at Ellie, the weakest of the three, without any warning.
Just when the dark black blade was about to touch the defenseless Ellie, Edward completely ignored the severe pain caused by moving his body and slammed Ellie away.
With a "pop" sound, Araba's scythe easily pierced Edward's light armor, and the blade pierced his arm hard.
Immediately, Edward felt a heartbreaking pain in his left arm, and dark black blood immediately poured out of the wound. It was obvious that the death plague on Araba's scythe had invaded his body again.
Edward, who could no longer care about the pain, immediately swung his sword and stabbed Araba in the heart. However, due to the severe pain caused by the wound, his sword actually deviated from its original position, and instead of stabbing into Araba's chest, he stabbed towards Araba's heart.
stabbed his left arm.
With a "bang" sound, the sword actually bounced off the barrier around Araba, but the sword still stabbed Araba's barrier to send out waves.
Araba seemed to be a little wary of the Shadow Oath in Edward's hand. After deflecting Edward's sword, he immediately floated to the side strangely.
"Do you still want to resist after reaching this point? Haha, it will only increase the pain before your death." Araba did not take action again, but as soon as he finished speaking, the three-headed demon bone dragon had fully recovered.
He began to press towards Edward and the others with all his teeth and claws.
Edward looked at the demonic bone dragon that had been resurrected with full health. Just when he was about to raise his fighting spirit and give it another try, the pain caused by the death plague immediately made him almost fall to the ground.
Are you going to die here? No, you can't. I absolutely can't think like this.
Edward had just thought of death and immediately cursed his thoughts secretly. But in the current situation, not to mention Araba, the three-headed demon bone dragon alone was enough to solve them, and Edward still couldn't get along with him to get out of the predicament.
To be continued...
