The end of one conversation was the beginning of another rivalry. Herman continued to try to get closer to Benedy, while Benedy kept his distance from him with almost synchronized movements.
The two kept moving, but the distance between them never got closer, seeming to have reached a strange balance.
"You'd better not go any further." Benedy suddenly stopped, and his actions made the malice in Herman's eyes become even more intense.
But he still didn't dare to be careless. Neither of them dared to act rashly until he was 100% sure.
The water droplets he left on Benedy's body can penetrate him in an instant as long as he gets close to a certain range. This is a sure-kill situation.
But at this moment, the other party seemed not to give him any chance and kept a subtle distance from him.
"Why did you stop? Are you so confident? Do you think you can go faster than my water element?" Herman threw the cigarette butt on the muddy ground, which was the area where he had previously used water waves to hit.
"You will turn into a corpse in an instant."
"Unless you can run faster than lightning, there will definitely be two corpses tonight." Benedy stretched out a blood-red finger and pointed at the sky.
"You can try..." Herman's eyes became colder and colder, and he slowly bent down, as if preparing to launch a sprint.
"I can definitely prevent you from approaching me for three seconds when you sprint, and you and I will be hit by lightning within one second." Benedy remained motionless, with a trace of madness in his eyes.
Benedy was also helpless. Who made him fall into the opponent's trick? If he had been prepared, he could have avoided the water drops rushing out from the ground.
But in fact, he is not completely helpless, he still has backup options.
The air was a little quiet, and Herman's tall and thin body, which could burst out at any time, hesitated.
At this moment, thick dark clouds began to gather in the sky above Benedy's finger.
Herman felt a little regretful. If he had acted violently when the other party was just speaking, he might have been able to capture this lunatic!
But as Benedy said, when he suddenly sprints, the opponent will also retreat. It is not too difficult to open up a distance of three seconds, and it only takes less than a second for the thunder to strike down.
"It seems we have to talk again." Herman straightened up and gave up the sprint.
"No! No need to talk about it." Benedy laughed and interrupted Herman, his eyes filled with fatal madness.
He won this game!
"Either return her to me intact, or news of your death will appear in Cupina's daily newspaper tomorrow." The words in Benedy's mouth showed no trace of emotion.
"What do you mean?" Herman thought Benedy was acting. Who wouldn't? Even though he looked as calm as an old dog on the outside, he was actually quite panicked on the inside.
The sky was covered with thick clouds and the moon was no longer visible. The entire city of Cupina was awakened by the thunder and all the residents got up and closed their doors and windows.
It seems like it's going to rain outside.
"Do you think I will believe you?" Herman mocked, Benedy was just showing off.
"When I use this magic, you have to believe it." Benedy's hand pointing to the sky was trembling.
"Try it." There was a trace of madness in Herman's eyes. He slowly bent down and made a graceful posture like a cheetah.
"Boom!"
A bolt of purple lightning pierced the sky, illuminating the entire castle and two figures who were ready to go. Their shadows were stretched very, very long.
The sky started to rain.
"Wind element, branch of deception, fantasy. Thunder and crying clouds."
Herman's figure flashed and he and Benedy set off at the same time!
Just as Benedy said, Benedy's whole body flashed with white light. As Herman expected, it was teleportation!
From the beginning, Herman had no intention of rushing towards Benedy. His tall and thin figure instantly appeared in front of the magic circle where Benedy inserted the sharp weapon.
But the silence in the air caused Herman's expression to change drastically. He had been deceived!
"Boom!"
Another bolt of lightning flashed across, and the moment Herman turned around, he saw a soaked figure standing alone above the castle.
Herman saw the man with blood-stained red hair looking down at him with a sarcastic expression. That man was not crazy at all! He had planned everything from the beginning!
Ever since he was deceived by the injury caused by the knife inserted into his chest, he has fallen into the opponent's plan.
The first two teleportation formations were deliberately exposed by Benedy in order to cover up the most conspicuous and easiest to guess, the real first formation.
Herman screamed with all his strength, knowing that it was too late, but the indifference in Benedy's eyes made him angry. His performance could no longer go on, he had lost his mind!
In the darkness, he vaguely saw Benedy throwing something into the sky, but the heavy rain had blurred his vision.
He has to get close, try to get as close as possible to the opponent, his water element is still there, and he still has a chance!
"Boom!" The light of lightning revealed the fear and unwillingness on Herman's face. All his previous madness was just an act.
The fear of death is something that not everyone can endure. Herman was eventually afraid and chose to run away.
In the darkness, he ran towards the door of the manor.
But no matter how fast you are, can you be faster than the thunder rolling above your head?
"Apat, the crime of deception, the lightning rod." Benedy pointed at a spear falling from the sky.
While running, Herman felt a sharp pain in his shoulder. His body seemed to be pierced by something, and the magic gave him a warning.
"Earth element, shield barrier!" Herman shouted.
"Boom!"
A thunder that resounded throughout the heaven and earth exploded throughout Cupina. Herman's scream lasted less than a second before his entire body was submerged in the thunder.
"Yah! You forgot to take back your water droplets, Mr. Earl! How can your little magic power be enough to block the thunder?" Benedy put a hand to his mouth and shouted amidst the thunder.
"Boom!" A bolt of lightning exploded above the castle. Benedy jumped in fright and quickly jumped off the tall building of the castle.
"Hahaha, listen, Lord Count, this is the sad music played by the gods for you."
Standing on the ground, soaked Benedy hugged the sky with his hands like crazy, turned his head slightly, and looked at the charred body lying on the ground in the distance with a smile.
After taking off his hat slightly, Benedy walked into the castle alone this time.
After entering the castle, a warm breath warmed Benedy's whole body. After some thought, Benedy gave up the idea of drying his clothes.
His expression has returned to normal at this moment, his eyes are dark and gloomy, and he is reviewing the previous game.
In fact, when he first saw a group of dolls, he didn't plan to be so desperate. He knew that he might encounter an extremely cunning predator hiding in the dark.
However, a turning point also happened later...
From the moment the crutch detonated the bomb, Benedy found that the alienation and barrier between him and Angelica disappeared. In an instant, Benedy, who was full of magic power, actually stepped into the ranks of the magic level six-pointed star!
Benedy's mentality also changed since then. Angelica, this girl, he must at least try his best to bring her back.
Time goes back not long ago...
In the bright dungeon, in a room that smelled of mold and rust, a white-haired girl with her limbs nailed to a silver coffin board was hanging her head.
It seemed that the pain in her limbs and the light above her head were constantly tormenting her, and she whined and trembled in pain.
A long time passed, a long time passed for the girl. Her body gradually stopped shaking and she stopped whimpering.
The whole person seemed to be dead, motionless.
It was deathly silent, with the guards snoring not far away.
"Boom! Boom!"
A chain of explosions sounded, alarming everyone in the dungeon. Everyone in the dungeon was summoned, leaving only one person to guard the white-haired girl.
The girl finally made some movement, and she slowly raised her head, facing the light above her head, with a trace of tears dripping from the corners of her bloodshot eyes.
For the first time in her life, she saw hope as bright as a lamp in front of her eyes.
The girl has a tragic past, but as it says in the Gatling contract, if you don't tell me, I won't ask.
Be my lamb and help me as much as possible, and I, will take care of you as much as possible...
