Chapter 337 The Embalmer
Roxanne stared warily at the gentleman in the black hat before her.
She originally planned to wait for work and wait until "Qiao Ke" and the Red Apple Church were both injured before taking action to deal with them... But she didn't expect that the other party would resolve the battle so quickly and come straight towards her.
"Hey, Qiao Ke, why don't you put on that black armor? Is it because the battle just now consumed too much of your strength, or is it too costly to use?"
Roxanne laughed.
She thought in her heart that the Red Apple Church was not a weak party. Even if Qiao Ke won, it must have taken a lot of effort, and she still had the advantage.
Although Qiao Ke has great achievements and has once "cut down the incarnation of the saint", Roxanne has not seen it with her own eyes, and it is said that the other party teamed up with "The Sword of Ferry" Byers to complete this incredible thing. .
Judging from the fact that Byers has been promoted to a high position, the main force at that time was probably not Qiao Ke, and the other party at most only played a "supporting" role... Most people in the mysterious field like to exaggerate the facts, and Roxanne does not think Qiao Ke is qualified to be called one. It is the "Obsidian Double Rider".
No matter how talented he is, he is just a Sequence 6 transcendent.
The most important point is that Roxanne, as the leader of the Black Knife Killer Group, has enough confidence in her own strength.
The bishop's head in Chen Lun's hand had been burned into ashes and scattered. He smiled and shook his hand, too lazy to make excuses with this woman.
"You're overthinking it, Roxanne, and it's just because you don't deserve it."
"I'm not worthy? Hahaha..."
Roxanne's derisive laughter grew louder as she mistakenly thought she was telling the truth.
"No need to bluff anymore, I know it... You fought alone against the senior Sequence 5 bishop of the Red Apple Church, plus five Sequence 6 priests. Such a record is amazing, and even makes me find it incredible, but there are not so many miracles in the mysterious field, you It must have paid a price that others can’t imagine!”
She was in no rush to take action and stood with her elbows crossed with a calm look on her face.
The black knife killers under her command had almost destroyed those black dolls, and the scale of victory was gradually tilting towards her. She wished that time would drag on as long as possible.
"Roxanne, I have always had a question, why do you think I am 'Joko'?"
Chen Lun asked curiously.
Roxanne still had a smile on her face.
"Take your time and guess, maybe you won't know the truth even after you die."
"Did the 'Twilight Tea Party' tell you?"
Chen Lun said calmly.
Roxanne's pupils suddenly trembled.
How did he know? !
The evening tea party secretly contacted the Black Knife Brotherhood and helped them seek seats in the Zhengshen Church. Only the top brass knew about it... How could an outsider know such a secret? !
Could there be a traitor leaked? !
No! This is impossible!
Then why...
Whoosh whoosh! !
Just when Roxanne was shocked, a spiral "white snake" suddenly bloomed in front of her!
Bang!
Relying on her profound combat experience and strong combat instinct, she raised her right arm and temporarily transformed into a large turtle shell-shaped black shield the size of a door panel.
There was a muffled sound, and blood oozed from the corners of Roxanne's mouth. She was pushed dozens of meters horizontally by the huge force, and she staggered to her feet. Although she raised her shield in time to block, the impact of the snakes was too powerful and she suffered some internal injuries.
"Despicable guy! Surprise attack!"
Roxanne put down her shadow shield and wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, her face filled with hatred.
Chen Lun retracted his pale hand and did not respond, but showed regret on his face.
It seemed that he felt a pity for not being able to take the opportunity to hit him hard.
Through the other party's reaction, he has been able to confirm that the Dusk Tea Party has indeed begun in-depth cooperation with the Black Knife Brotherhood...
"Floy, go help Golov and the others and get rid of those black knife killers first."
Chen Lun whispered to his companions.
Floy, Noah and Antonio nodded in agreement.
"[Encoffiant] Ah, this is my first time fighting a transcendent of this sequence. I hope you won't disappoint me, Roxanne."
Chen Lun chuckled and teleported to the opponent with his silver sword in hand.
Immediately, it was a sword that struck him in the head!
Roxanne snorted coldly, and immediately twisted her left arm. The mud-like shadow formed into a black triangular blade, and with a clang, it blocked the slash of the silver sword.
The two launched an airtight confrontation, with afterimages and clangs ringing continuously.
Dang Dang Dang!
But because Chen Lun took the lead, Roxanne resisted a pale hand head-on and suffered internal injuries. This series of fierce attacks put her at a disadvantage frequently.
"Damn..."
Blood spilled from the corner of Roxanne's mouth again. She didn't even have time to wipe it away, so she could only bite the bullet and deal with the continuous slashes. Qiao Ke's swordsmanship is extremely good, the angle of the sword is tricky, and the force is strong and weak, which is unpredictable.
What made her most uncomfortable was that purple brilliance began to rise from the silver sword. Every time she parried, a soul-damaging power would invade, making it impossible to prevent it!
Clang! !
It was another parry. Roxanne's face was covered with veins because of the pain in her soul. She didn't want to continue like this. She gritted her teeth and swung her arms. The dark blades condensed into a ball, then exploded, and she used the impact to push the opponent away.
At the same time, her entire body disappeared into the shadows.
The shadow on the ground continued to shrink, and finally disappeared into thin air.
Chen Lun stood there holding the silver sword and looked around. Roxanne had completely disappeared.
‘This is the ability of [Sequence 6-Shadowless One]… to erase one’s own shadow and achieve a true concealment effect. ’
Whoosh!
Just then.
Chen Lun was pointing obliquely at the ground under the silver sword. A large mass of "dark mud" suddenly appeared in the long shadow. It kept clinging to the palm of his hand holding the sword and tightly grabbed his right arm, making it difficult for him to move. .
The top of the "mud" bulges, and Roxanne's dark upper body slowly emerges. She has a ferocious smile on her face. Behind her, three pairs of shadow arms appear, each turning into weapons such as swords, guns, swords, and sticks, and they attack Chen Lun's head like a storm. Come.
But Roxanne's attack failed.
Her expression changed slightly.
The black-hatted gentleman in front of him disappeared in the blink of an eye, leaving only a severed arm, which was pulled by the "shadow coffin mud" he released... But the strange thing is that the severed arm did not shed even a drop of blood, and twisted on its own, slowly changing shape. Became a pale python.
A strong sense of danger comes.
Roxanne made a prompt decision, discarded the white python in the "mud", and escaped as quickly as possible.
But it was too late.
boom! !
The white python expanded and exploded, and countless decaying blood fell on the shadow, corrupting it into a white and unstable color.
"Ah!"
Roxanne screamed in pain, and her whole body melted into a ball of liquid shadow, falling to the ground.
It seemed that with her as the center, it turned into an underground spring, and "shadow mud" continued to bubble out, gradually covering the entire ground within a radius of 100 meters.
The other black knife killers and the circus people who were fighting all tacitly withdrew from the area to avoid being affected.
Roxanne's suppressed angry voice came from all directions:
"Qiao Ke, you slippery guy..."
Mid-air.
Chen Lun was standing in thin air, looking down at this shadow area, secretly wondering.
'Is this the power of the [Encourage Master]? If the shadow in this mud state cannot be defeated, her body will not be harmed... Even the self-destruction of the severed limb just now only destroyed a small part of the shadow, but it was She promptly added. ’
he thought.
'Roxanne has rich combat experience and is very aware of her own weaknesses. Once the shadow is defeated, she will disappear immediately so that no one can find her body... she will not appear again until the shadow is replenished. Show up to fight and handle it flawlessly. ’
Compared to the bat-winged bishop of the Red Apple Church, Roxanne's frontal fighting ability may not be as good, but her adaptability and changeability are superior.
If the two really faced off, Chen Lun felt that Roxanne might have a better chance of winning.
No wonder she is so confident.
‘I’ve probably figured out the opponent’s combat mode...’
Chen Lun gradually lost interest.
‘It’s over. ’
boom! !
The "Shadow Lake" on the ground under his feet suddenly boiled, and a huge shadow mud spewed out, turning into a huge guillotine more than ten meters long in mid-air, slashing straight at him!
At the same time, there were countless strips of shadows, woven into a giant net, surrounding Chen Lun from all directions, intercepting Chen Lun and preventing him from escaping.
Chen Lun raised his eyebrows, slightly surprised.
The other party showed such a wide range of shadow manipulation abilities, and he happened to be stuck at the limit of his teleportation, unable to escape... He didn't know whether the other party saw his true identity, or it was just a coincidence, but it always made him feel a little troubled.
Without entering the "pale posture", he would be cut in half with a blow from the pitch-black guillotine... Although it would not cause death, it would take time to heal.
In this kind of high-intensity battle, victory or defeat can be determined by seconds, and Chen Lun will not let himself get into that embarrassing situation.
‘Having previously exposed the ability to separate my body, Roxanne must have been prepared at this time. My spiritual intuition told me that once I split in advance to avoid the guillotine, the shadow mud would capture my body immediately. ’
This thought flashed through Chen Lun's mind.
He immediately aimed his right arm at the oncoming giant guillotine and directly used his pale hand.
The white snakes twisted into a giant whip and whipped it from right to left.
Bang! !
With a clanging sound, the guillotine cut off several white pythons, but at the same time, it was also deflected a few meters by the "Pale Whip" and passed by Chen Lun.
Chen Lun's expression was calm, and he raised his pale hand again, aiming at the "Shadow Lake" below.
The severed white python grew again and recovered as before. Dozens of snakes opened their mouths and spit out purple-red death fire! I saw a huge brilliant pillar of fire falling from mid-air, hitting the ground heavily, and raising huge flames into the sky.
The flames prevented the dark net from approaching, while indiscriminately burning the lower parts.
"Ahhhh!!"
Under the intense heat, the shadow mud boiled and twitched like a living thing, and the entire area trembled with great force. Roxanne's screams echoed around her, as if she was in great pain.
But Chen Lun knew that such an offensive still did not hurt the opponent.
He took advantage of this opportunity and took out a pair of cards and raised them up to divine the location of Roxanne's body.
Dozens of playing cards flipped and fell, but only one remained suspended in the air——
9 of spades!
"Found you."
Chen Lun grinned, raised his pale hand high, and fell towards nine o'clock like a meteorite.
Those dozens of white pythons intertwined into a huge "ball", shaped like a battering ram, and hit the ground covered with shadows!
Boom! !
A three-meter-tall dark giant emerged from the ground at the last moment, with four pairs of arms resisting Chen Lun's heavy hammer.
Roxanne's entire body was covered in pitch-black mud, even her face was no exception. Her exposed eyes were covered with bloodshot eyes, and she kept coughing up blood in her mouth, struggling to withstand this fatal blow.
"How could this happen..."
Her voice was hoarse, full of disbelief and reluctance.
"It's impossible for you to find my true body!"
"You know that I am a Destiny Path Extraordinary, but you still act like you are sure of victory. Do you think that your ranking is higher than mine, so divination will not work for you?"
Chen Lun looked down at her coldly.
"Sorry, my divination weight is higher than you think."
Just when the two are at loggerheads.
Among the snakes that formed a huge ball, a white python broke away from the "organization", snaked out, and bit Roxanne's throat fiercely.
The latter's pupils shrank sharply.
On her chest, the shadow mud covering her chest swelled spontaneously and turned into a dark arm again, strangling the white python tightly to prevent its attack.
"Qiao Ke, you can't kill me, how about we each take a step back and deal with the 'Red Rose Team' first?"
Roxanne vomited blood and forced a smile.
"I apologize to you. I shouldn't have been rude to you...Actually, I didn't take the initiative to attack you, right?"
"You seem to have made a mistake, Roxanne."
Chen Lun looked at her indifferently.
"The forces represented between you and me are incompatible. Even if you don't take action, I will find an opportunity to kill you... Who brought you and me to the same red disaster area."
Roxanne could no longer suppress her anger.
But at this moment, the white python she was holding on to the dark hand growing out of her chest suddenly opened its mouth, and spit out a silver sword. Before she had time to react, it stabbed herself straight. between the eyebrows.
bite!
The silver sword was blocked by the "Shadow Armor" for a moment, and then it penetrated her brain!
Roxanne's expression hardened.
