Chapter 44: The Flesh Corpse Demon (Part 2)
The battle has been going on for a long time, and midnight has long passed. If it can survive until dawn, the corpse demon's power will definitely be greatly weakened.
Even the undead who are so powerful that they have returned to their original nature will not like the sun. At most, they are just not afraid of it.
However, it seems that Old John is weakening much faster than Anna due to the corpse liquid and blasphemy field on his body.
In just a few minutes after the corpse demons reunited, Old John seemed to have difficulty breathing.
Ladislaus was really worried about whether he and his party would be able to see the new sunrise.
During the process of the corpse demon's reorganization, there was an extremely violent surge of corpse liquid, making it impossible for Ladislaus and his party to take advantage of the opportunity to pursue them.
Instead, you have to retreat as much as possible, and you can only watch the enemy appear in a new form.
This time, the corpse demon seems to have become smaller because it lost a lot of meat in the battle just now and cannot be replenished.
When it finally condensed, even the blasphemous halo suddenly shrank and seemed to disappear.
Ladislaus and Old John saw surprise in each other's eyes this time.
Could it be that because of the inability to replenish corpses, the power of the corpse demon has dropped to the point where it cannot even maintain the blasphemous realm?
But soon, Ladislaus could no longer laugh. The corpse demon in front of him fully proved that strength and body size are not necessarily proportional.
There hasn't been a fight yet, just taking step by step makes people feel unprecedented pressure.
This time, the corpse demon completely lost its terrifying appearance. Instead, it appeared as an extraordinary female figure. If it weren't for the violent boiling beneath its feet, it would be a smaller, but obviously more terrifying, blasphemous realm.
In addition, the densely packed teeth that are vaguely visible in the mouth far exceed the number of normal human beings.
I'm afraid even killing him won't make Ladislaus associate it with the corpse demon.
Its skin is so delicate and beautiful, forming a sharp contrast with the long black stick in its hand.
This long stick, which seemed to be used as a tethering post in the monastery, turned out to be Clarice's weapon.
Machiavelli was obviously even more unable to accept the image of the corpse demon in front of him.
He galloped over on horseback, desperately reaching out to get close to the face in the dream.
All his self-confidence and reserve have been exhausted. Even meeting his love rival again after more than ten years is like a spiritual contest.
At this time, he completely gave up the armor in his heart, and only had a burning desire to touch that dreaming face again.
"Is it you? Clarisse." The smooth touch on her hand seemed to be the same as the beauty's skin thirty years ago, with no trace of time at all. "Please, tell me, you still remember all that.
"
"Clarice is me, I am not Clarice. I still remember all that, but none of it means anything to me." After finishing speaking, the corpse demon who appeared in the image of Clarice kicked Machiavelli.
After flying out, the poor man was kicked away by Clarisse again just like many years ago and fell into a coma.
These few words of it are full of blasphemous power that makes people dizzy and deafened.
After all, Machiavelli, who was full of wisdom and charm, was no match for Hannibal. Perhaps Hannibal's strange charm was really hard to resist.
However, Ladislaus noticed that the corpse demon did not use the terrifying long stick in his hand, but also closed the blasphemous domain when Machiavelli approached.
I'm afraid those memories are not meaningless to it. Aren't a large part of our souls composed of memories?
Even the corpse demon that has lost its life cannot completely escape the influence of memory.
After pursuing her for many years, she was still graceful even after being rejected many times. After realizing that it was irreversible, she endured the huge loss caused by the dissatisfaction of the gods, and finally fulfilled her beloved.
The corpse demon's memory is not just Clarice, why doesn't Hannibal feel a little grateful to Machiavelli in his heart?
The entangled past makes it merciless.
But it was completely rude to Ladislaus and Old John.
It was wielding a long black stick as thick as a bowl that was taller than its height. Old John's short weapon was difficult to parry, and Ladislaus was even more exhausted. Even with his sharpened hands, he did not dare to touch this terrible weapon.
The legendary leather armor and wild life showed its value at this time. Anna, who had just been injured, was seriously injured and even showed signs of poisoning. In just ten minutes, she recovered a certain amount of combat effectiveness. Although she was still unable to participate in close combat, her
Several magics barely maintained the balance of the scene.
First, two fire arrows from the "Hot Shock" necklace gave Ladislaus a chance to find his condition and be able to barely adapt to the power of the corpse demon's new form.
Ladislaus was given a tree skin spell to slightly strengthen his ability to resist blows, and a flaming knife, which made Ladislaus's zombified hands carry the blessing of Kashus.
Relying on the druid's natural spellcasting, he could convert all memory spell slots into summoning magic. He gave up a thunder summoning spell and summoned a level three dire wolf for support.
The dire wolf dared to rush into the inner circle of the long stick without fear of death for the master's order.
Although he suffered continuous blows, he was quickly seriously injured.
But it gave Ladislaus and Old John the opportunity to attack, but even the sharp knife with flames could not inflict decisive damage to the corpse demon who seemed to have become thinner.
It felt like wood chips had been inserted into it, as if Cardinal Colonna's strange burlap clothes had completely integrated into the corpse demon.
If it weren't for Anna being a believer in the Lord of Fire, the flame knife, which was hotter than usual, would probably not be able to cause damage at all. Nowadays, the power of fire is still relatively effective against plant-based defenses.
But Old John is more helpless. Anna only memorized one flame knife, and all the status magic was given to Ladislaus. Old John's own Cat's Elegance has long been used up.
And compared to Ladislaus, who can be strengthened by the blasphemy field, Old John has been weakened for too long. His attacks are almost no threat, and his avoidance skills are getting slower and slower.
Finally, after the corpse demon kicked the dire wolf to death, he also knocked Old John to the ground with a sweep.
Although Anna immediately triggered the scorching impact on the necklace and barely resisted further attacks by the corpse demon with the last flaming arrow, Old John's head was not crushed, but Old John, who had only climbed out of the blasphemous realm with his hands and feet, obviously could not help.
.
Although Life Wildness allows Anna to support Ladislaus, Anna still has difficulty standing up because her blood contains too much toxin, and she cannot directly attack the zombie demon anyway.
Low-level druids lack magic that can directly attack, so the last tree skin spell is all Anna can do.
Although Ladislaus failed, Anna, who was unable to move, was bound to die with him. Even so, there was nothing she could do.
Next, Ladislaus can only deal with the corpse demon alone.
