Chapter 1012: Abnormal Opponents
Sheyan could clearly feel a great threat coming from behind him, but he was in a paralysed state at the moment, so he could not escape!
Hill’s cold fingers brushed against Sheyan’s back!
Not that Hill didn’t want to attack Zi first, but Zi had been pushed more than five meters away by Sheyan. If he stubbornly pursued Zi, he would probably suffer a strong counterattack from her. Hill was a very cautious person, so he chose to remove this underling of hers first. He would feel more secure going at her 2-on-1 afterwards.
Sheyan’s back and the clothes on it instantly turned numb. He could feel the part touched by the fingers going dry like it was coated in a layer of cement. What’s more, a series of notifications sounded in Sheyan’s ears.
[ You have been attacked with the ‘Touch of Medusa’! You will undergo a petrifaction check! Your Physique stat passed the check! You will only suffer some shallow petrifaction. ]
[ You have been attacked with the ‘Touch of Medusa’! You will undergo a petrifaction check! Your Physique stat passed the check! You will only suffer some shallow petrifaction. ]
[ You have been attacked with the ‘Touch of Medusa’! You will undergo a petrifaction check! Your Physique stat passed the check! You will only suffer some shallow petrifaction. ]
[ ….. ]
Although Sheyan was only petrified on the surface, it was enough to cause him a great amount of trouble. The surface of his skin turned into something like concrete. The slightest bit of movement would send his skin cracking and crashing down; it was really painful! The blood and raw flesh all over his body made him look like a fish that had been stripped of its scales. If shallow petrification was this bad, he was really worried about the consequences of deep petrification.
Sheyan was convinced that once a more severe petrification was successfully triggered, he would turn into a fragile stone statue that could be insta-killed. The probability of this happening should not be that high, but he must take caution against it!
At the same time, Corina, who was sent flying earlier with blood flowing out of her mouth, suddenly screamed. Purplish-black light balls appeared on her head, and their numbers increased rapidly from one to two to three to four! Faces distorted by fear could be seen on the surface of every light balls. All the faces were elongated and looked as if they were screaming in agony!
Corina pointed and five light balls were aimed in the direction of Sheyan. If Sheyan avoided them, they would hit Zi who was behind him!
Hill retreated amidst the swaying of his tuxedo and fell back quietly. His eyes sunk deep into their sockets, looking especially gloomy and mysterious. He exuded a strong sense of death.
At this time, clear white marks started appearing on the spot on Sheyan’s back that was brushed by Hill’s fingers to form a mysterious symbol. Sheyan’s blood flowed inside the ditch which formed the symbol but it did not drip down, as if the symbol was an independent life which had hatched and latched on to his body like a parasite!
Hill waved his hands and two black talismans appeared in his palms. The talismans then flew straight towards the huge symbol on Sheyan’s back. Their speed appeared slow, but were actually fast. They started burning when they got close to Sheyan. The red glow of the flame was like the eyes of a vicious beast, full of madness.
The purplish-black light balls hit Sheyan first. When they did, sounds of crying and wailing could be heard in the air. The elongated face of a vengeful spirit floated out from each light ball to gnaw fiercely on Sheyan’s flesh and burrow into his body!
Right after that, the black talismans attached themselves to Sheyan’s back. When they did, the air was filled with a sound that was like glasses cracking! The area 30 meters around Sheyan suddenly turned pitch black! Out of the air emerged a terrifying giant mouth which was stretched open to the limit, the two burning talismans forming its eyes. The mouth proceeded to swallow Sheyan whole!
Just like that, Sheyan mysterious vanished into thin air!
Was he insta-killed???
Hill and Corina were apparently very confident in their attack. They seemed sure that Sheyan would die from that. They split up and approached Zi from the left and right.
Zi finally recovered from the state of fear. A light blue magic barrier appeared all around her body. The inside of the magic barrier had a layer of mesh supporting it, which gave the barrier a very sturdy feel.
Her silver dagger cut vertically from top to bottom. However, she did not look like she was cutting through air. Instead, it looked like there were some resistance to her cutting motion, as if she was cutting through numerous sticky silk threads in the air!
With a flick of his wrist, Hill flung another talisman which appeared in front of Zi near instantaneously as if it teleported there. It immediately blew up. Hill was trying to interrupt Zi’s next spell with the talisman, but Zi completely ignored it. The explosion only managed to create some ripples on the ‘Titanium Mesh Magic Barrier’!
Hill’s expression darkened. He had a strong ominous feeling.
The spell he had just casted may have seemed ordinary, but it was in fact a rather powerful interrupting talisman. Its damage was not that high; rather, its value lay in its ability to teleport to a spellcasting opponent in an instant. This talisman had never failed him before. Even if the opponent’s spell was not completely interrupted, it would inevitably be delayed! Cases where the opponent could withstand the talisman without any effect like Zi did was virtually unprecedented!
Zi’s long hair blew madly in the wind.
As the tip of her silver dagger slowly slid down, more than ten rays of arcing light emerged from where it cut through!
These radiant arcs were like extensions from the void. When they broke through the cut in space, a strong tremor could be felt around the area, as if the space itself was wounded!
The power of Skywalker: The ‘Thread of Time’!
This skill of Zi’s actually did not contain much destructive power, but it could instantaneously sever the contact between the surroundings and outer dimensions, causing a violent tremor.
Corina and Hill were each borrowing the power of death and the power of curses from other dimensions to attack the enemies. It was impossible for this skill of Zi’s to completely cut off the source of their powers, but it would definitely weaken them significantly. Zi wanted to pull the rug out from under them!
Corina and Hill simultaneously felt the steady decline in their power. Hill immediately threw out a black talisman, then bowed down to worship with great respect. A large amount of black miasma emanated from his body. The miasma coalesced and condensed into a web of veins that attached itself to the black talisman.
Next, the talisman bared its teeth and exposed its claws in the air, turning into a giant wolf with needle-like fur all over its body. It pounced fiercely at Zi. Although it was blocked by Zi’s ‘Titanium Mesh Magic Barrier’, it kept attacking with its fangs and claws in a frenzy. A green flame lit up in its eyes.
Corina was more significantly weakened after being hit by the ‘Thread of Time’, so her retaliation was especially strong. She gritted her teeth and stubbornly shielded the few threads of light left, trying her hardest to prevent Zi from completely cutting off her contact with the realm of death.
Corina’s power was obviously inferior to Zi’s. In no time at all, sweat had trickled down her face and soaked all her makeup. The biggest motivation to keep enduring lay in the fact that she was not fighting alone – Hill was attacking Zi from the other side at the same time. Corina refused to believe that a mage-type contestant like Zi could hold out for much longer under Hill’s violent onslaught. There’s no way she’s that formidable.
The two sides fell into a stalemate, but after merely three seconds, a painful and prolonged groan resounded in the air. The sound was heavy, as if it echoed off all sides. Then, a huge phantom in the shape of a gigantic human ten meters tall emerged out of thin air. It was as thin as a stick, as if its bones were merely covered by a layer of heavily-wrinkled skin, but its belly, the surface of which was full of blood vessels, protruded like a pregnant woman, looking as if it would burst open at any moment.
This was the hungry ghost summoned by Hill. It was a weird creature that would constantly be tormented by an insatiable hunger, but could only consume soil. Legend had it that its stomach was as vast as the sea.
Right now, the face of the hungry ghost was distorted in panic and pain. The next instant, it opened its terrifying mouth and started vomiting! A horrible stink that could knock one unconscious instantly permeated through the air. It vomited a brown muddy substance which formed a small hill on the ground.
The sight shocked Hill out of his wits. He screamed in horror.
“That’s….that’s IMPOSSIBLE!”
Before Hill’s voice had faded away, a mass which looked like a meat bag slipped out of the hungry ghost’s mouth. After puking this thing out, the hungry ghost’s painful wailing finally subsided. The phantom gradually disappeared into thin air.
At that moment, a small team of security guards had rushed over after they sensed the disturbance here. They just happened to be sprayed by the vomit of the hungry ghost. The respiratory system of each guard was destroyed in an instant by the foul smell. They were completely decimated!
Every Cyberdyne employee who happened to be downwind from this location or within a hundred meters without a gas mask on, puked their guts out.
The meat bag that the hungry ghost had vomited out was actually its stomach. It started to wriggle violently. A shiny metal palm proceeded to tear through the stomach and reach outside!
