Chapter 371 Silver Ping Fourteen
Pap-tat-tat-tat.
Rapid and heavy footsteps echoed on the streets at night. A humanoid beast more than two meters high quickly passed by rows of closed doors, sprinkling stinking blood along the way.
Tick tock.
Tick tock.
Freed was seriously injured at the moment, clutching his bloody chest and running for his life.
The guy chasing behind him really made his scalp numb and his heartbeat racing.
He hasn't been this embarrassed for a long time.
As the proud disciple of the "Red Duke", Fried's specialty is more "human body alchemy", so he founded the "Grafting School", trying to pursue the mystery of the union of the human body and all things.
He has always been proud of his own physique, and even looked down on other "weak" alchemists because of this, thinking that their bodies were vulnerable.
In addition, he is a fourth-level long-timer with extraordinary strength, so even in "Midnight Rose", he is a highly respected and respected senior member.
He is like a big shot in the eyes of others.
But what happened tonight shocked him hard!
The blond young man is obviously younger than him, but has stronger strength than him...
It is understood that the other party is a third-class civilian and has not been Mrs. McCarrah's apprentice for a long time. Soon, only about half a year.
But in such a short period of time, that guy actually mastered the alchemy formation that even he couldn't recognize!
He could only watch the other party helplessly, dismantling and rebuilding the second floor of the stone and wood house, and brutally massacred the members of the "Grafting School".
Fried's heart was bleeding.
The power he had worked so hard for so many years was so easily destroyed...and he himself was like a lost dog, running for his life with his tail between his legs!
“Further forward, we arrive near my father’s manor, where there are the rest of his students...”
Freed looked at the increasingly remote but familiar street scene, and his hope for survival ignited in his heart.
He took a deep breath and ran faster, regardless of the fatigue caused by blood loss and the severe pain all over his body.
What Fried didn’t know was.
Gilan has been following behind him, chasing after him leisurely. His eyes were calm, and his running movements looked elegant and calm, contrary to Fried's embarrassed appearance.
Actually, it's not that he can't catch up, but he's using this to catch big fish in the long run, intending to hunt more targets.
Since he wants to hunt happily, he will not give up easily.
Chasing all the way, Ji Lan accidentally discovered that the patterns on the stone pavement on the street were quite strange. They seemed chaotic, but in fact they concealed a certain pattern.
If you widen your field of view and look at the entire street, you can find many patterns on the ground, which seem to be pieced together into a thick "arc".
And this "arc" is like a small part of a larger pattern... like a piece of a puzzle.
Jilan's eyes narrowed and he remembered this detail.
'For some unknown reason, the Sakya royal family summoned craftsmen a few months ago to build five tall spiers in Andea, and carved strange patterns on the stone roads...'
He was thinking. Then, he suddenly raised his eyes.
I saw Fried running wildly in front, and finally someone came to meet him.
There were five people in total, three women and two men. The leader was the familiar curly-haired woman who had attacked Flamel in the woods near the cabin.
The opponent's alchemy creatures, which were made up of various creatures, were smashed to pieces by Jilan with a "mud stick". As for the lion-headed monster "Charlie", he dismantled it into pieces and studied it for more than half a month.
"Mr. Fried, what are you?!"
The curly-haired woman and her group saw Fried's miserable condition, their faces changed greatly, and they asked in shock.
But Fried was not willing to stop and explain patiently. He yelled:
"Where is my father?!"
"Mr. Boral is not in the manor. , but...maybe he went to a secret stronghold."
The curly-haired woman answered honestly.
But Fried passed directly over the five of them and ordered without looking back:
"Help me stop the people behind!"
"The people behind... ...?”
The curly-haired woman and others were startled for a moment, then turned to look.
I saw a tall young man with bloody hair reaching his waist, running towards him at an extremely fast speed with an intimidating sense of oppression.
The other party’s familiar face and indifferent expression directly caused the curly-haired woman and others’ heartbeats to stop for half a beat.
"Is...is that guy?!"
They were shocked.
Although Jilan's appearance has changed, this group of people still recognized him... It was really because the impression Jilan left on them was too deep.
"Those who stand in the way will die." Ji Lan said indifferently.
The curly-haired woman and her group were about to summon their alchemy creatures, but before they had time to act, the young man was already dragging the blurry afterimage past them.
A strong wind swept through.
Chichichichichi! !
They only saw a gray flower basket cross sword flashing with sword light, leaving a six-pointed star pattern on their retinas. Immediately, their necks and eyebrows hurt, and their consciousness fell into deep darkness and silence.
The thumping sound sounded almost simultaneously.
The expressions of the five people were frozen, with fine sword marks as wide as knuckles left between their brows and throats, and they fell to the ground.
Soon the corpse was like a broken sand sculpture, turning into a handful of powder and flying everywhere in the blink of an eye.
Ignoring the mysterious points that were jumping in the corner of his sight, Gillan bit Fried's "tail" like a ghost and continued to chase him.
Fried glanced back, almost frightened to the point of leaving his body.
"This guy...this guy!!"
He roared madly in his heart. Although the five curly-haired women were not very strong, they were still their father's apprentices. However, they couldn't even stop the guy even half a step, and they were all killed instantly by the opponent in front of them? !
“Father is not here!”
Fried’s mind was racing and he was extremely nervous.
"He must have gone to the 'Chessboard Manor'! Yes! How could I have forgotten this... As long as I escape there, this guy won't be able to find me!"
He quickly took out something from his body He picked up a golden horse-head chess piece and urged his spirituality to activate it.
The "Knight Chess" in my hand suddenly shines.
The next second, Fried, who was running wildly, disappeared from reality and appeared on an invisible lawn.
"Huh..." Fried gasped, breathing in the unique fragrance of "Chessboard Manor" and grinning with relief. "Finally saved!"
He fell to his knees with no regard for image.
It felt like I had just walked away from hell.
But behind him, there was a subtle step stepping lightly on the grass.
Swish.
Fried was startled and looked back. Immediately, his whole body froze in place as if struck by lightning.
"How is that possible?!"
His pupils shrank sharply.
“Why can you come in?!”
Fried saw the blood-haired young man standing not far away.
The other party was holding a "knight chess piece" exactly like his own in his hand!
"How come you are an official member of 'Midnight Rose'...and have the same 'Knight's Chess' as me?!"
"Guess?" Gillan grinned, a look of violence on his face.
He raised his hand, holding a silver revolver, and pulled the trigger at Fried, who was also at the end of his strength.
Bang bang bang bang! !
Several shots were fired in succession, and ferocious firepower poured towards the face and chest of the humanoid beast.
There was a constant popping sound.
Fried's body was pushed and shaken by the impact of the bullet, and finally fell into a pool of blood with a stunned expression on his head.
Jilan walked over, took the "Sword of Laughter" and swung it, and decapitated the humanoid beast's head.
Soon, he bent down and reached out to touch.
Frid began to decay rapidly, turning into a powdery substance that floated away.
In the corner of Ji Lan's sight, the color number "1289" jumped and turned into "1589".
Freed contains a full 300 points of mysterious energy!
‘The points of the fourth-level Kusei are indeed enough. ’
Gilan grinned.
But then, he was surprised to find that there was a colorful pattern next to the lottery number in his eyes, which was the kingdom's brand that symbolized the essence of the fourth-level "referee"!
'Fried's Kingdom Brand was actually captured by me...'
A flash of lightning flashed in Gillan's mind, and he understood.
‘That’s right… Kusei will become a “Nightmare Monument” after death, but if he is directly corrupted by me, this is likely to happen. ’
He remembered the two laws of the world that Mr. A once said. One of them is that "everything exists, and existence has traces."
The "Nightmare Monument" is the product formed under the action of this law. It is a trace of the existence of the long-lived people. Its essence is a mixture of kingdom brand, obsession and residual power, and has the mysterious power to drag people into nightmares.
But after Jilan used "Bailan" to corrupt it, it was equivalent to taking away the kingdom's brand and power before the "Night Monument" was formed, so that it could no longer be formed.
At this time, Jilan suddenly noticed something and raised his head and looked forward.
I saw three figures coming quickly on the lawn.
Through the observation of spiritual vision, the two women and one man on the other side are both level 4 long-lived people. According to the description of the "Guidance Tips", it can be seen that they are all outstanding students of the "Red Duke" Boral Dupu, and are also one of the official members of the "Midnight Rose".
"Fried is dead?!"
After the three people arrived, they looked at the blood on the ground in confusion and then confronted the blood-haired young man more than ten meters away.
"Why...you...came into the 'Chessboard Manor' and killed Fried?!"
"..."
Gilan did not answer the other party's question question, but looked at them silently, and then grinned a scary and ferocious smile.
“Three delicious prey have arrived.”
"Prey?"
The three "Ye Mei" Kusei people frowned.
They did not know the blood-haired young man in front of them, but they could tell that he was also a fourth-level Kusei... But the strange thing was that this man always exuded a sense of danger that made their hair stand on end.
“This person is not a member of ‘Ye Mei’, but he is able to enter ‘Chessboard Manor’, which is very suspicious.”
A woman with pigtails said coldly to her companion.
"To be on the safe side, let's go together. After taking him down, hand him over to Mr. Red Duke to see what secrets he hides."
"Okay." The other two people nodded in agreement.
But just when the three of them were about to take action, they suddenly felt a fierce air flow.
Looking up, his pupils shrank sharply.
Behind the blood-haired young man, a three-meter-high gray stone skeleton sculpture slowly emerged!
"What is that..."
The three of them were startled.
