Chapter 14: Death with eyes closed, the giant snake and the succubus
The mountains and rivers are full of doubts and there is no way, the willows are dark and the flowers are bright... to the cliff.
Palmer, the ancestor of the blood clan, felt a bit broken. He was seriously injured at this time, and his butcher knife was also slightly damaged. In order to escape from the white dragon girl, he had just launched a "blood escape technique".
The ancestor-level blood escape technique is not only fast, it can even escape into the "space-time gap", making it impossible for even the gods to track it. It can be said to be invincible when used to escape.
But this blood escape technique also has a drawback. It can only be used once in a short period of time.
In such a desperate situation and encountering the evil star of the military leader, even a giant like Palmer can't help but feel despair and worry about his life.
However, he did not give up the struggle and quietly crushed the blood jade used for emergency help.
After the Blood Queen was exorcised, the Demon King relaxed his powers and the Blood God Meredith went into retreat to recover from his injuries. The Wolf Lord and the Demon King were also in retreat to consolidate their realm.
Currently, he and Lilith are responsible for handling the daily affairs of the council. Although the other party doesn't want to take care of things, he should come to rescue him after seeing the distress signal, right?
Please, nightmare banshee, come and save people!
"Soldier, how did you know I was here?"
Palmer looked at the soldier as if he were facing an enemy, and regardless of his injuries, he released the blood energy in his body with all his strength. The power of blood surged forward, dyeing the fields red, and quickly condensed a large number of blood shields, blood swords, and blood thorns, covering him with blood.
layer surround.
His heart was full of doubts.
Even if the battle master was watching from the side when he was fighting the White Dragon Girl, the opponent wouldn't be able to lock onto the location after he moved after using the blood escape technique.
But he was blocked.
coincide?
Some kind of special tracking method?
Dragging the sharp magic blade with cold light flowing in his hand, Ren strode towards the fierce-looking ancestor of the blood race, with a sneer on his face and said:
"Guess, guess why I can block you?"
Palmer: "..."
(??д??)
Damn it, if he hadn't been seriously injured, how could he be in such a mess?
"Soldier, I have long wanted to have a fair fight with you, but my current condition... is not very good. How about making an appointment at another time?"
"Why a fair fight? Wouldn't it be nice if I hacked you to death right now?"
"..."
Why is this person so shameless?
As the most powerful person in the human race, he took advantage of others' danger and even looked proud and shameless.
"Soldier, I..."
"Monster! Stop talking nonsense and eat my grandson with a knife!"
Ren shouted loudly, and the magic sword swept forward. The blue sword light spread forward like a huge moon wheel, splitting the river of blood in an instant, and destroyed all the blood swords, blood shields and blood thorns!
"..."
Palmer swallowed back the words he tried to delay, his face turned red, and he quickly jumped to avoid the blue sword light sweeping over him.
He was in the air, raising his arms instantly, burning the precious blood in his body, and reciting the most terrifying forbidden blood magic spell.
"I dedicate the first drop of my blood to my mother, thanking her for giving me this body..."
"I dedicate the second drop of my blood to my father, thanking him for giving me my soul..."
"I dedicate the third drop of my blood to the sky and the earth, thanking him for giving me the land to live on..."
Palmer, the ancestor of the blood race, suddenly sang with a somewhat hoarse voice. The syllables of the nursery rhyme-like song were so weird, but every syllable penetrated deeply into people's hearts.
As he chanted, the pure power of blood formed a scarlet six-pointed star pattern on the ground. The blood inflammation all over his body surged out, forming a six-petal bloody demon flower that bloomed instantly around his body!
The bright red blood demon flowers multiplied and spread rapidly, covering dozens of miles in an instant. The sea of flowers floated and fell, and on each blooming petal appeared a twisted face that was extremely pale and bleeding from its seven orifices.
"scare----!"
Countless dead ghosts let out shrill roars, stretching out their pale arms as the bloody sea of flowers spread, dancing wildly, or sticking their heads out to gnaw out with the dark red teeth in their ugly big mouths!
It was as if the door to hell had suddenly opened, and countless hungry ghosts rushed into the human world, trying to devour all life.
This is Palmer's desperate move. It is activated by burning source blood and is very costly.
Once used, it will fall into a period of weakness afterwards, or even lead to a permanent decrease in strength.
But Ren put too much pressure on him. He cut open his blood river area with a random knife and shattered all the barriers. If he didn't fight hard, he would have no choice but to be slaughtered.
"Huh, what a small trick!"
Ren snorted disdainfully, took a step forward, and the divine power of the stars turned into waves of light and was released!
I saw billions of star-like light points constantly shining, vibrating, and rotating, forming a gorgeous spiral galaxy field.
In this powerful realm that contains infinite divine power, every starlight is as brilliant as a shooting star. The starlight flows and turns into weapons such as swords, guns, swords and halberds, piercing all the petals in the bloody sea of flowers, and billions of undead souls are instantly wiped out!
"puff!"
The realm was broken through and the blood magic was violently interrupted. Palmer coughed up blood and looked horrified.
"you……"
Impossible, how could there be such a powerful field?
Even the sixth level blood gods are far from having this kind of power!
"Wait a minute, Soldier Master Ren, I'm willing to vote..."
"die!"
Ren stepped on the starlight to run, breaking through the long river of blood, holding the magic knife high, and hundreds of thousands of light orifices in his body vibrated, and majestic divine power poured out, all of which was injected into the blade.
His unparalleled courage and murderous intent to kill gods and demons can make people's livers and gallbladders burst.
boom!!
The moment he swung the sword, his whole aura was like an endless volcano erupting, slashing towards the ancestor of the vampire clan with an irresistible aura!
Wherever the blade points, the surrounding space and even time are cut off by the shining sword light!
Even though he can only use the power of the sixth level threshold now, his combat power is much higher than Nana's.
puff!!
The terrifying sword light, which was enough to divide space and cut off time, instantly passed through Palmer's body, flying the butcher knife in his hand, and then smashed it to the ground.
"Boom!"
Even with the restrictions of the laws of the crystal wall system, the earth was cut into a ravine that was tens of kilometers long by this terrifying sword light. In the ravine, dark red liquid could be faintly seen surging and splashing.
"ah!!"
Palmer's body exploded and he screamed in pain.
The next moment, countless flesh and blood fragments squirmed in the bright red blood light, and were barely pieced together.
But the last step got stuck. The wound opened by the magic knife glowed with a strange blue arc, making it difficult for the two halves of the body of Palmer, the ancestor of the blood clan, to be joined together.
Moreover, there is also a scar on his light red soul body that is difficult to heal.
"Ahhh!"
The soul-tearing pain made Palmer's face distorted, and he was in agony.
The magic sword that had evolved into a divine weapon revealed its ferocious side at this moment.
"No, I'm going to die if this continues."
Palmer realized that he was on the verge of death, and his heart became violent. His soul instantly escaped from his body, and exploded his body, wildly stimulating the power of blood!
"Hua Hua Hua..."
The long river of blood boiled instantly, rising up into the sky, condensing into billions of deformed blood beasts and twisted souls of grievances, rushing towards the soldier master. For a moment, the whole world seemed to be swallowed up by blood, and the momentum was as huge as the annihilating flood that cleansed everything.
Come!
At the same time, Palmer's soul flew away into the distance without looking back.
Faced with this blow, Ren finally straightened his expression. He held the five fingers of his left hand empty, the acupoints in his palms glowed, and the divine power of the stars shook the void and continuously superimposed and fused, causing a loud sound of the ocean tide!
He gathered all the momentum in his body, faced the hundreds of millions of wronged souls of blood beasts, and landed with one palm.
Boom!!
The sky and the earth in the southern wilderness suddenly collapsed, and a palm filled with vast divine power broke through the sea of blood and slapped it over.
The whole body of this giant palm is as deep and introverted as the night sky. The acupoints light up one by one, channeling divine power, vaguely showing the image of a galaxy of light rivers. Countless light points and acupoints surround each other and are connected continuously, each operating according to the mystery, as if it were a galaxy.
In the palm of your hand, there is a vast universe of its own!
Bang!!
Taking the photo with a giant palm, the space under the palm showed layers of folds in the extreme distortion and compression. The infinite power, like thousands of mountains stacked on top of each other, fluctuated and crushed down. There was a long river of blood, countless wronged souls of blood beasts and various kinds of blood.
All the substances were completely shattered in a loud explosion and turned into ashes!
The essence of fist intention shatters the vacuum!
In the distance, Palmer's soul suddenly stagnated.
Each orifice in the giant palm filled with the vast divine power of infinite star power has the devouring power of a black hole, and then crosses time and space at the speed of quantum entanglement, hitting the soul of the ancestor of the blood race!
Bang!!
With the loud noise of the vacuum shattering and annihilating everything, Palmer's soul suddenly exploded like fireworks!
Countless red soul fragments turned into bloody bats and tried to escape. The giant palm immediately closed up, encompassing most of the bloody bats, and shook it hard!
"puff!"
The blood dissipated.
Palmer let out a short scream, a large number of soul fragments were annihilated, and he almost died.
However, the vitality of the ancestor of the blood race is really tenacious. In addition, Ren's power was restricted, and a small number of soul fragments became fish that slipped through the net. They condensed together and turned into a coquettish blood rainbow to escape, and it was about to merge into the void and disappear completely.
At this moment, a pleasant female voice sounded.
"O wandering traveler at midnight, I sing your praises, your tired soul will eventually return to the embrace of the night."
The nightmare banshee emerged from the void, with a garland of roses hanging from her snow-white and tender neck. She stepped on the fluttering poppy petals with her bare feet and sang softly from far to near.
A soul-stirring song!
The flying bloody rainbow light stagnated, revealing the human form.
Palmer's soul has become very illusory, and only his head is barely intact.
At this time, the surprise of escaping from death was solidified on his face. His eyes widened, and various negative emotions such as shock, anger, fear, and despair flashed rapidly in his eyes.
"Lilith, you..."
"scare!!"
A huge monster snake with nine ferocious snake heads and dark red skin sprang out of the red mist. It roared and opened its bloody mouth, swallowing up Palmer's soul in one bite!
"ah!"
Palmer only had time to let out a short scream before he collapsed completely.
A generation of vampire giants died without ever leaving their eyes open.
He couldn't figure out why the Nightmare Banshee and the War Master were together...
As soon as Palmer died, the river of blood completely disappeared, and the land was devastated. In a large pit, the ancient artifact "Butcher's Knife" whined for a while and then stood still.
In addition to the butcher's knife, there is also a blood core suspended in the air that exudes a coquettish blood light and the breath of life.
Renn walked over, picked up the butcher knife and blood core, put them into the domain space, and said with a smile on his face:
"The old guy is quite resistant to beatings. His survival skills are top-notch. No wonder he can survive until now. It's a pity that he shouldn't ask you for help."
It's not difficult to defeat Palmer, Nana can do it easily.
But it's not easy to kill him.
After experiencing the era when powerful men such as the Great Arcanists of the Elf Empire, the Sun King, the Three Supreme Kings, and William the Great dominated the continent, the demon giants who are still alive today are all strong but unlucky masters.
.
Lilith was wearing a sleeveless black dress, her bare feet floated over in the air, she crossed her arms and said:
"His vigilance is a bit low. He has been asleep for three thousand years and is somewhat behind the times.
If it were Meredith, even if she was furious because her subordinates rebelled, she would never rush out to kill the traitor leader alone. Who knows if this is the Blood Queen's trap?"
To a certain extent, Palmer was indeed a bit careless, and his death was not an injustice.
He has been sleeping for three thousand years, directly skipping the era of the rise of mankind. Unlike giants such as Wolf Lord, Demon Emperor, Meredith, etc., he has experienced countless bloody battles and conspiracies, and he has been a bit off the mark at critical moments.
"You still talk about him, aren't you the same?"
Ren walked over and lifted Lilith's smooth chin, "Back then, you just broke into Pearl City in the North and made a deal with me. If I turned against you on the spot, or Hades found you, you would also be dead."
"snort."
The nightmare banshee snorted, turned her head away, and ignored him.
It was really hard for her to refute this.
She was indeed very conceited at the time, and she looked down upon the soldier lord, a fledgling human giant, and felt that she could easily control him.
Although she was stronger than Palmer and had more tricks, if Ren had lifted the table directly at that time, Pluto would have been alarmed, and she would have shed her skin even if she didn't die...
Ren reached out and pinched her fair face and said:
"It's my fault that I'm too soft-hearted and don't want to destroy the flowers with my own hands. Otherwise, you, a witch, would have become cold."
"Humph, you little pervert, you got an advantage and still act like a good boy."
Lilith slapped his hands off and took a few steps back.
Ren immediately stepped forward with a smile, put his arms around her waist and hugged her into his arms, pressed her delicate red lips together, and kissed her passionately.
"Lily, you did a great job. To commemorate the first time we collaborated on a deception project, it was a complete success!"
Lilith blushed a little, she felt that she was indeed a bit of a husband and wife now.
She cooperated with whatever he said.
"hiss!"
The nightmare hydra devoured the soul of an ancestor of the blood race, and its aura was rising steadily. It was happy, but when it turned around and saw that stinky man "bullying" its mistress again, it suddenly became furious.
It swung its snake tail and quickly crawled over here, half of its body standing upright, and a pair of blood-red vertical pupils stared at him viciously.
Nightmare Hydra:(●—●)
Ren:(゜一゜)
"What are you looking at, stupid snake? If you dare to stare at me again, do you believe that labor and management will skin you and make you into snake soup?"
"Hiss..."
The nightmare hydra spits out snake letters, its blood pupils glow, and exudes a creepy and ferocious aura.
Ren felt a little cold in his body, raised his eyebrows, held Lilith's face and said:
"What's the origin of this stupid snake?"
It is not trivial to make him, who has reached a medium level of divine power, equivalent to Godhead 11, feel threatened, even just a little bit.
"Have you ever heard of Dendel, the giant nightmare snake? It is one of the descendants of that giant snake. I spent a lot of effort to conquer and contract it." Lilith explained.
Dandel?
Ren recalled it for a moment, looked at the Nightmare Hydra curiously, and said:
"Descendants of the three ancient evil beasts?"
At the beginning of the birth of the world of Toril, some evil and powerful monsters appeared, the most famous of which are the three ancient evil beasts. The three are the "Chaos Demon Dog" Kozif and the "Nightmare Serpent" Dendel
, and the Devourer of Elves.
The Night Serpent Dendel was born from the first nightmare. Before dawn, she was always devoured by countless terrifying and evil nightmares. She seemed to be particularly fond of nightmares, especially the nightmares of kings and gods.
Even more chillingly, if Dendel finds his insatiable appetite unsatisfied, all beings, mortals and gods alike, will remember the painful details of each of their nightmares.
According to ancient prophecies, the nightmare snake will become a symbol of "the end of the world" and swallow everything, even the gods.
From here, it is not difficult to see that the mythological system of DND has a lot to do with Nordic mythology. The prototype of the nightmare snake is the "Earthly Serpent" Jörmungandr...
With this kind of bloodline, Lilith's familiar has unlimited potential.
"It's amazing, I didn't expect this stupid snake to be quite big."
Ren looked at the Nightmare Hydra with bright eyes and rubbed his hands, as if he wanted to draw some blood from it.
"Hiss, hiss..."
Feeling the undisguised malice in his eyes, the Nightmare Hydra spat out snake letters and roared uneasily, looking a bit fierce and angry.
It is not afraid, but it knows that the mistress will not allow it to attack this human being.
"Okay, don't scare it."
Lilith waved her hand, and the big snake turned into a ball of red mist and disappeared.
Ren kissed her cheek and said curiously:
"Ordinary demon lords can't get such a familiar, so who are you? Could you be the daughter of a certain demon lord?
Demon Lord Demogorgon?
Dark Lord Graz'zt?
Immortal Emperor Orcus?”
The above three are collectively called the "Three Giants of the Abyss". They are as ferocious as the three ancient evil beasts, and are almost the three most powerful demon lords in the Abyss.
"My father is not as powerful as the three of them."
Lilith denied with a cold expression.
She doesn't seem to want to talk more about her past.
Ren asked again and again, and she only said that her father and ex-husband were both demon lords of the bottomless abyss, and she herself had part of the succubus bloodline...
"Succubus blood?"
Ren looked at her tall and plump figure and marveled, "No wonder I can't control it. It's not my fault."
Succubus, who can withstand this?
It's not that he was carefree, he just made the same mistake that all men make...
"What are you looking at?"
Lilith felt uncomfortable at his playful look, and pouted, "Get out of here quickly, Meredith and the others are coming soon."
Ren's expression straightened and he suppressed the urge to pull the succubus into the woods. Starlight surged from his body and flew away like a meteor.
In a few blinks, he disappeared completely.
A quarter of an hour later.
A streak of blood light was projected down and condensed into a human form.
Blood God Meredith's expression was ugly. He glanced at the ravaged and devastated land, then looked at the Nightmare Banshee standing on one side of the scene, and said:
"What's going on? Why has Palmer's vampire mark completely faded?"
"Obviously, he's dead."
"..."
Meredith's expression froze, and he clenched his fists, concentrating on sensing the remaining breath on the battlefield. Especially after seeing the crack that was dozens of kilometers long, his pupils shrank.
The familiar sword intent and the all-killing edge reminded him of the Sword Master of the Sky.
However, the divine aura is clearly not that of the Sword Master of the Sky.
"Such a powerful slash and the unfathomable power of the stars, Master?!"
"It is initially determined that the murderer is him."
Lilith stood on the edge of the bottomless crack, her black skirt swaying in the wind, and said calmly, "The battle was over when I got here."
"Have you seen the soldier?"
"No."
"Butcher knife..."
"They should have been taken away as trophies."
"..."
Meredith was speechless for a moment.
He wanted to chase the leader, but he restrained himself.
As a person, you must be steady when doing things. Don't act on your whim. You must plan and act first.
This is the lesson he learned through blood and tears after experiencing the history of the rise of the human race, being beaten by the Sun King and the Conqueror, and almost being tricked to death by the mage and sage Anion.
"Tell this to His Majesty the Demon Emperor."
Meredith sighed.
It seems that the leader of the army was not struck to death by the Heavenly Thunder of Law, but also succeeded in becoming a god, so he will be a big threat.
