When Edward listened carefully, he could distinguish the footsteps of a bipedal creature - the frequency was slow and had little power. Physically, it should be easy to deal with. And the most important thing was that there was only one.
Of course, the situation was overwhelmingly unfavorable... He was not fully armed now, but half-naked with only a rag to protect his body, holding an iron piece in his hand that was not much longer than a pedicure knife.
But there are still things that can be used as weapons - Edward reached into his mouth, slowly pulled out a silk thread, and a small piece of crystal fell into his hand...
This is a trick Edward learned from a wanderer - the crystal ball, which is fixed in the gap between the back teeth and is only half the size of the little finger, is an alchemical item. It does not require chanting a spell to activate it, but the effect is pretty good -
This kind of gadget is often disguised as a button or other decoration. When it is crushed, it will explode and emit a blinding light. Although it has no offensive power, it is still a good weapon.
But this was the last thing Edward used to save his life.
In fact, the wanderer who taught him this method also told him a way to carry more things - to hang things up with a thin rope. Then put the things in the stomach and tie the ends of the ropes.
On the teeth. If necessary, the rope can be pulled to pull things out of the stomach.
This method is obviously too troublesome, and it requires a long period of practice to tolerate a rope stuck in the throat without vomiting - Edward now regrets why he didn't try it in the first place - what he has to face now
What effect can this small alchemy item have on a terrifying monster? Especially, would an undead be afraid of such a thing?
However, he quickly pulled out a helpless wry smile at the corner of his mouth.
In fact, it's almost the same. No, if it's that terrifying monster, then Edward is almost certain that no matter how hard he struggles, he will be dead - it's not that he wasn't on guard before, or even one-on-one, but the opponent
Without even taking any offensive action, he had already left others unaware and at the mercy of others.
So at this time, it seems that the only option is to fight to the death.
Click, click.
The room was immersed in deep silence, and amid the subtle hum of air movement, the gentle footsteps approached... In the distance, the sound stopped for a while, and made a sound that seemed to be stirring the water.
"Damn, I hope it won't be too long..." Edward felt his heart roaring uncontrollably. Even if he closed his eyes, he could still feel the other person's gradual approach, walking straight towards him through the distant space.
. He tried his best to suppress his breathing rate, and even closed his eyes, controlled by willpower not to make any movements... to prevent the slight movement of his eyeballs from being discovered.
The effort he put in to stop normal physiological reactions with his will was undoubtedly extremely intense... He could almost feel his scalp constantly numbing, and waves of dizziness spreading from around his eyes... The only thing that was lucky was that,
The slight footsteps were walking straight towards him... getting closer... getting closer...
The footsteps stopped not far away... It seemed that he was performing some kind of action, or looking at himself? The young man hesitated for a moment, unsure of the opportunity. Then...
There was a slight sound of wind in my ears!
The sharp sound seemed to be an arrow or a sharp sharp weapon!
There was obviously a flaw in his disguise? However, it was too late to think too much. In this unforgettable moment, Edward suddenly took off his disguise and turned to the side!
In fact, he hadn't thought about what the other party was going to do to him, or what effect the strange wind noise would have. But at this moment, his body's instinct was warning him of the coming danger - a terrible sharp pain erupted from his body.
There was a sensation on the back of the neck, as if something extremely sharp had pierced the flesh there! However, the young man could not care less at this time. While turning his body over, he had already crushed the tiny ball.
!
A strong light bursts out in the room!
Just like the sun shining at noon in summer, even the closed eyes felt a throbbing pain, so the monster close at hand suddenly let out a roar... The strong light in the darkness can cause severe pain and blindness. This is
This is a problem that cannot be avoided by any being with eyes, even monsters.
And the next instinctive sweep obviously worked - the resistance was passed from the weapon!
But Edward couldn't help but sigh in his heart - it was too shallow. Even if he closed his eyes, the young man was still very clear that the short blade and his arm seemed to have entered a layer of heavy oil, which would be added to it.
The force was deflected, and this sure blow did not completely hit the target.
And this also led to him being hit back immediately... Just as he was about to turn over and jump down, the monster's scream suddenly changed its tone, so the young man suddenly felt as if his forehead had been hit hard with a hammer, and his mind
It seemed like it was torn into thousands of pieces! The original jumping suddenly turned into a tumbling!
But luckily, this attack also saved his life - in the chaotic movements, two strong winds flew past his back one after another! Overturning the small table, there was a clanking sound.
, he finally rolled away smoothly!
"Damn..."
Edward uttered a vague curse and felt a splitting headache. Tears were welling up in his eyes. The surrounding scenery was distorted into colorful colors. The most terrifying thing was that the pain on the side of his neck had almost penetrated into the bone marrow!
He instinctively reached out and grabbed something slimy somewhere! It looked like the tentacles of an octopus, twisting endlessly! The slimy body is not affected by external forces, making it extremely difficult to grasp, and the sharp
The young man could clearly feel the pain, it was constantly exerting force and stabbing, trying to get into his body!
Uh ah ah ah ah...
The terrible slimy object aroused the most primitive fear in his heart, and Edward roared wildly. He cut it with the blade in his other hand! Then the pain on the side of his neck suddenly spread, and the blood spread wetly.
Come, then... the terrible coldness slowly penetrated into his heart...
Was his carotid artery cut open by this knife?
An idea arose in his mind, but was interrupted in an instant - at the same time that the thing was broken easily, Edward's ears suddenly heard the wailing of something! It was a mixture of sharpness and grandeur.
...but it was an indescribable weird cry, and what was even more terrifying was that it was like thunder that resounded directly in the mind!
The boy staggered and rolled back until he felt he hit something...
Or maybe he should be grateful that Tymora was still caring for him, because the scream was so short and fleeting. When the scene in the young man's eyes finally began to become clearer, the sound also disappeared, leaving only the slowly spreading sound.
Pain, and a hot and cold feeling on the side of the neck, with blood flowing.
But it's not over yet -
"Well done, you damn little bastard...I didn't even realize you were awake!"
The hearing finally recovered - what woke it up was the sharp tone mixed with the slightest noise. In the blurred vision, the purple monster in the distance had stood up. It was also staggering, and a dark red color was in the air.
Slowly surging from his chest and abdomen - even though he was affected by some force field defense spells, this close-range attack required Edward's full strength, so it still caused considerable scars on him...
…
And this small delay gave Edward some time.
Wiping away his tears and blinking hard, Edward's vision had almost returned... The monster in the distance, wrapped in a robe, with only a big head exposed, made the hunter tremble, but he quickly noticed
The shadow in front of me does not seem to be the source of the fear in my heart...
Although very similar in appearance.
The moist and shiny skin exposed under the robe, the huge butt-like head and swaying body, as well as the pupilless eyes shining with white light are almost similar to that shadow, but his stature is relatively short.
Much more, the color of the skin is also disgusting, but vivid purple, and more importantly, there are only four short tentacles on the narrowed chin, which are twisting unconsciously.
On the purple head, the eyes were still closed, but the boy's position had been captured. However, the monster did not attack...
Because the injury Edward caused to him was obviously much more serious than imagined. The horrific wound almost exposed his internal organs. Although he pressed the wound hard, it still could not stop the loss of blood - that human hand
He actually held three blades, causing parallel, side-by-side scars similar to beast claws that were extremely difficult to heal and would roll up into a ball, causing not only greater pain, but also spurting out more blood. For a spell caster
It is quite a fatal interference!
So the cunning monster, who was still frightened, chose to retreat without hesitation and did not move forward.
He just stretched out a tentacle and moved forward a little, and the ground between the two people immediately sprayed out a large piece of sticky substance that shone with strong fluorescence, covering the ground in the blink of an eye! And as the monster emitted
With a gesture, the blazing flames have already burned on it, turning into a raging wall of fire!
He was about to run away... This is the instinct of all living things. When your eyes are severely injured and you can't see anything, running away is the first choice.
But following a whirring sound, something rushed towards him with the sound of wind!
Through the flames?
The monster obviously did not expect that this human would make such a choice - in shock, it let out a hissing scream, and suddenly opened its eyes with silver light! Then the violent wind blew in front of him.
Thick smoke and dust rose up on the ground! It easily shattered the impacting form into pieces!
