MTL - Summoning the Holy Sword-v3 Chapter 649 Final City (VII)
"What a ghost place here !!!"
Looking at the lush forest in front of her eyes, Xiaoli Loli stomped dissatisfied. And Rhode and Katherine standing next to each other looked blank. No wonder they would have such a reaction. After Catherine was merged into one, the magic circle that enveloped the entire building began to spin. Immediately before Rhodes responded, they were teleported to this one again. Ghost place, although I don't know where it is. But from the brilliance of the spirit crystals shining around, they can clearly be teleported to other areas.
"It looks like a park here ..."
Looking at the fountain and benches not far away, Rhodes responded quickly. At the same time, he can be sure that this area is definitely not where he was waiting before. After all, Rhodes observed the environment around them very carefully and did not see any parks or other places. Then it can be seen that they are now in a completely strange area. And from here, Rhodes finally figured out the true rules of Carlin's game. The twelve spirit crystals were not placed there for people to take away. Want to come, these twelve crystals correspond to twelve Personality. When the crystal is activated, the corresponding personality will be transmitted to the opponent to fight, and the winner will determine who can obtain the crystal. This is repeated three times, and then the three personalities will reintegrate into the main personalities after the battle has been decided. However, in order to avoid the situation that everyone is concentrating on the strategy, Carrian also specially designed this kind of random transmission rule, making it impossible for one person to connect constantly to get all the personality crystals at once. After teleporting to an unfamiliar area, they must help others, and they need to rely on others' help to reach their destination. This way, no matter how out of place people. There will also be a certain connection and friendship.
However, Rhodes also found that things were not so simple.
The disappearance of a spiritual crystal represents the disappearance of a personality. The teammates who were supposed to be team members will also lack one. Carlin will definitely not ignore this problem. Such a random transmission may also disrupt the redeployment of teams that have lost teammates. And there are few people on my side, I am afraid that I am the winner-after all, I have absorbed the personality of others. And not the other way around. In this way, the more obstacles Rhodes and Little Five and Catherine face, the stronger they will be. Others are likely to unite against themselves, and by then good dogs won't be able to fight the wolves. Now Rhodes has only figured out the rules of the entire game, but he hasn't figured out how the spirit crystal itself works. Are the personalities they represent fixed? Or random? Now that they can handle the personality crystals of others, can others handle them like this? For example, it wasn't completely impossible to send such a thing to where Little Lori and Catherine were teleported to, right?
"In short, let's move on, let's talk about the situation."
Guess is always guessing. In order to avoid guessing from becoming a reality, the best way is to start with strength first, then start to suffer. Although Rhodes didn't know where it was, for three of them, there was always only one destination. Those are the towers with spiritual crystals. As for the other parts, it is completely beyond the consideration of Rhodes and others. So he just waved his hand, motioned them to follow, and then walked out of the park along the side trail. Walk towards the tallest building nearest them. However, he has just left the park. Rhodes found something wrong.
"What is this ...?"
Xiaowu Loli licked with a lollipop in her left hand, while holding a sword in her right hand, looking at the scene with amazement and surprise. Not only her, but Catherine's eyes widened, looking uneasily at everything in front of her. I saw them in front of the three after leaving the park. It is a wide avenue, but this is not the point. The focus is on the things on this avenue-dark, lumpy things that look like stains. At first glance they seemed to be scattered like grease, but Rhodes could see them at a glance. These things are the shadow monsters that have fought themselves before, but ...
"These things ... should be dead."
Rhodes stepped forward and carefully touched the bodies of the shadow monsters on the ground. At this moment, they looked like broken gas balls, and they felt smooth and cold outside. But Rhode didn't care about such trivial things, but ... did the shadow monsters defeated by them leave their bodies? The answer is no. In the previous first tower, Rhodes and others were able to defeat several attacks of these shadow monsters. They also seem to die. It was just that at that time, these monsters were no more than screams and fell to the ground, then their bodies gradually became thin like shadows, and then disappeared. But this scene is clearly different. These shadow monsters were obviously dead, and they did leave corpses. Not only that, when Rhodes touched the corpses, he could even feel the death and cold chill emanating from it. It's not just as simple as defeating each other. Obviously, these shadow monsters have been "completely" killed. So that when Rhodes came here, they did not encounter any interception.
"..............."
The situation is wrong.
Rhodes frowned and stood up, sweeping alertly. Only the dim road lights flicker from time to time on the wide road in front of him, reflecting everything in front of him. But it made Rhodes shiver involuntarily. He felt as if he was standing in a cemetery, and the icy air surrounding him would almost penetrate his skin and bone marrow. This weird sense of death was something Rhodes had never felt before, and it seemed that everything in front of him had been "killed."
"Let's change direction and don't go this way."
After much consideration, Rhodes chose to give up, after all, the situation in front of him was too weird. And this road leads to the tallest tower closest to them. These traces of battle indicate that someone had passed here before Rhodes and others came over, and the opponent's strength was definitely not weak. In this way, Rhode has to become a chaser. He has always been indifferent to the possible ambush of other people, so after considering a moment, Rhode made a decisive choice. Give up and choose another direction that is relatively far away. And for Rhodes' choice. Little Five Rory and Catherine also did not object, and now Rhodes has completely become the leader of the three, and these two people are not subjective, so as long as Rhode's order is not particularly outrageous, they There would be no response, all that Rhodes would do.
However, Rhodes didn't find it, just as he turned and left, at the top of the tower not far away. A figure wrapped up and down in a black cape was watching them quietly. Watching Rhodes decisively leave, the figure murmured with dissatisfaction, then she turned her head, and a pair of eyes shining with the flare of the soul thus emitted a bright light in the darkness.
"Your plan failed. They weren't fooled."
In the face of this black robe, in the darkness, a silver bell-like laughter sounded, followed by a looming figure like a firefly.
"I knew things weren't that simple. After all, they're also a winner."
With this sound like a cold wind in the tomb. The vague figure became clearer, and soon, in front of the black robe, a young girl who exuded the radiance of her soul appeared all over the body. If Rhode saw the girl in front of him, he would be a little surprised. Because what appeared to Rhode at the moment was Little Five Loli. But it's different from the snack food that looks only in his teens following Rohde. The young girl is about 17 or 8 years old. What appeared on that spooky face was a smile full of self-confidence and slyness, which is exactly the same as the little five loli in Rhodes' impression.
"The team that can get a spiritual crystal in such a short period of time is definitely more powerful than we think. Especially the human being can see that without him. The other two people will not be aware of it at all. Here's the anomalous situation, but ... Ehhorn ... "
Said here, the ghost girl in front of her sighed helplessly, then she turned her head and looked at the black robe in front of her with a complaining dissatisfaction.
"If it weren't for your ability, I'm afraid they wouldn't have noticed it so early. So I said it before. If you can, please don't take it lightly ..."
"Well, don't worry about it, I just like to do this. If you are unhappy, then rush to me and kill those **** !!"
Hearing the phantom girl's complaint, Death in Black Robe paused for a moment, and finally she hummed a little, then said with a bit of uneasiness. In the face of the death of the black robe, the ghost girl reluctantly spread her hands and smiled helplessly. But before she could say anything more, another voice emerged from the darkness.
"Well, it doesn't make sense for you to say more here. Now that the other party is aware of the problem, it doesn't help us to continue to wait here. According to the pre-determined plan, we will continue our task as long as we can Get enough spiritual crystals, then we can win the final victory. Don't worry about them for now ... "
"team leader."
And the words of the person hidden in the darkness had not finished, and suddenly, a quivering light voice emerged from it, interrupting the other party's speech, and then spoke in a tone that was full of excitement. .
"Dona saw another team going towards the group. Hey, should we go over and watch the fun?"
"Another team?"
Hearing here, not only the man hidden in the darkness paused, but even the ghost girl and the death of the black robe flashed a few bright lights in his eyes, looking like they were eager to try. But in the end, the voice in the dark still coughed, and then spoke.
"Don't worry about them, we still have to deal with our own affairs ......... there is not much time left."
As if against the other side's speech, at the same time, accompanied by a thunderous thunder, another tower collapsed not far away. Looking at the scene in front of them, everyone was silent for a moment, and then the figure on the rooftop quickly disappeared. Just a blink of an eye disappeared.
"Booming ..."
Rhode looked up and looked at the distant roar like a thunder, because of the high buildings, he couldn't see what was happening there. But judging from the trembling on the ground, there must be another tower crashing down-but why is this? Theoretically, even if the fighting between the two sides would cause damage to the tower. But it should be limited to placing spiritual crystals and their surroundings. Could it be said that there is nothing else I haven't noticed?
"Oh!"
Just as Rhodes wondered if there were any problems hidden in it, a howling wind suddenly rushed out of his face. If Rhodes didn't react in the slightest, this punch alone would be enough to blossom his brain. But Rhodes is not vegetarian. At the same time that punch punched out at himself, he suddenly stopped the figure that was galloping forward, and then the whole person flashed to the side, almost at the same time, the sword in Rhode's hand suddenly came from his waist He jumped out and smashed into his side with a bright dazzling arc of light. With Rhode's hack. The fist originally blasted at Rhodes was suddenly withdrawn, crossing and blocking Rhodes' long sword. Soon after hearing a bang, the attacker in the darkness was split off by Rhode.
But the threat didn't end there. Just as Rhodes was attacked, Little Five and Catherine were also attacked. A ghost-like sword and spinning sickle slashed at them from behind. Although this sneak attack came quickly, Little Five Lolly was not a fool, almost at the moment when Rhodes was attacked. Suddenly she pulled out her sword and twirled to protect herself. As for Catherine, it goes without saying. Even if she did nothing, it was not easy to break through her "unbreakable" defense.
"Dang Dang Dang!"
Accompanying the sound of weapon collision, three silhouettes disappeared around Rhode and others. Perhaps because of the failure of the surprise attack, they did not fall in love, but retreated quickly, at a fast pace. Even Rhode just barely saw a shadow flashing in front of him, and when he wanted to look at the other side carefully, the other side turned decisively and fled, and the blink of an eye disappeared.
"Ah, who are these assholes! What do they want to do !!!"
Originally, Xiaoli Loli planned to go up and fight with each other. As a result, these sneak attackers did not expect to run faster than rabbits. Before Xiaowu Loli reacted, the other party could not even see the shadow. The angry little guy was jumping straight, and Catherine next to her was holding a snack with a blank expression, and seemed completely unaware of what had just happened.
"It's despicable! Shameless! Indecent !! What a skill to sneak attack on others, have the ability to come out and fight with us face to face! Coward!"
Although Xiaowu Rory shouted vigorously, but no one responded to her. The only thing the three could see was the silent alley and the dark city without anyone. The howling wind blew through it, bringing up a few leaves, except for the roar that the little guy kept echoing in it, there was no noise.
"It's shameless, actually sneaking on us! Mr. Rhodes, let's find out those guys and bite me!"
"Do you know where they went?"
"This one……………"
Hearing Rhode's questioning, the little Wu Luoli, who was still so uplifted, had nothing to say immediately. In fact, even she didn't know where the other party had gone. Because the attack speed of the opponent just now was so fast that everyone except Rhodes didn't even notice it. Little Five Loli was just instinctively aware of her opponent's offense through her combat experience to prevent the opponent's offense. I really want her to say something in detail, and Little Five Loli cannot tell. But even so, she did not give up her opinion.
"Don't let these **** continue to follow us? These guys did not succeed in the attack just now, and they will definitely come to us for trouble !!!"
Hearing the little guy's questioning, Rhodes frowned. I have to admit that Xiao Wu's statement is not unreasonable. The opponent is obviously planning to play guerrilla warfare with himself. It is really about guerrilla warfare. This is still what Rhodes plays by himself. He naturally knows this better than anyone else. I have to admit that in the current environment, it is indeed very suitable for playing this kind of guerrilla. However, Rhodes could not understand the reason why the other party would launch an attack on himself. If the number of spirit crystals is scarce, there is still something to say. But now ...
The corner of Rhodes's mouth slightly tilted, revealing a smile. Indeed, although it looks objectively, the enemy is secretly and I am clear, and the other party is obviously directed at himself and others, so it will definitely be more troublesome for me to go on. But the problem is that Rhodes is quite familiar with this method. He not only knows how to attack, but also how to defend. If the other party wants to pressure himself in this way, Rhodes is not completely without ideas ...
Thinking of this, Rhode raised his eyebrow slightly, then narrowed his eyes and said.
"No, we keep moving towards the goal, leave these guys alone."
"Hey----?!"
Hearing this sentence, Lori Wu and Catherine were shocked. (To be continued ...)
