Shape Moon, The Road to the Magician

raging--!!!

The moment the pitch-black flame sword fell, the heat wave came over like a wall. In just a few breaths, the quagmire of flesh and blood under the feet had been burned into coke. People around could easily feel the moisture in their throats rising rapidly. Taken away.

Nero Kaos, who was hiding in the shadows, was forced to take a few steps back by the dark flames. The hot temperature around him actually made his already inhuman body feel uncomfortable. At this time, he regretted that he had acted so rashly..

The old-fashioned face no longer had the calmness it had before, and when those sharp eyes like an eagle looked at Xia Yuan again, their eyes were full of fear.

Although I had seen this kid in the city before, I thought he was an ordinary agent sent by the Holy Church, but I didn't expect him to be so powerful.

Although this guy who released the flames didn't know his true identity, his actions brought him a sense of crisis that was even more terrifying than that of the princess.

Not only is his strength and speed stronger than his own, his magic power is also limitless, and he can also release powerful magic cannons and this extremely evil flame. Why don't he recognize such a terrifying guy? How could it appear in such a remote place?

If that was the case, then it would be okay to say that being stronger than yourself might not necessarily mean that you could kill yourself, but that little girl was even more evil. Even though it was just an ordinary swing of a knife, it could bring you a fatal threat.

Facing her was like meeting his nemesis. If he hadn't made a prompt decision and separated his flesh and blood quickly enough, he couldn't guarantee what would have happened if he was really going to be hit by that knife.

Nero Kaos had no idea where the princess found such two evil guys.

In short, the compatibility between me and these two evil guys is really bad. One of them can suppress me from the front, and the other may have the means to actually kill me, plus there is a princess nearby.

If the stalemate continues, he might actually be killed. retreat.

This was the thought that came to Nero Kaos's mind.

Although beasts usually pursue and kill their prey relentlessly, they will also choose to retreat when faced with threats to their survival. This is an instinct imprinted in their genes, and the same is true for the ancestors of the Dead Apostles.

The end that Xia Yuan slashed with his sword divided and ignited half of the building together with all the flesh and shadows scattered here, leaving behind burnt flesh and blood in the middle.

Because of this, everything in the entire apartment building was emitting a puff of black smoke and heat, with heat waves radiating beneath your feet.

As for what exactly he hit, apart from himself, the two people around him could only guess.

"Are you afraid? Want to escape? Nero Kaos"

"The ancestor of the Dead Apostles actually felt fear when facing the human beings whom he most despised. You are really ridiculous."

Xia Yuan's words were like a sharp blade, piercing into the heart of Nero Kaos.

Fearful, ridiculous……

"……Come on, are you kidding me?……"

An obscure sound was forced out of Nero Kaos's dry throat.

He had given up everything he had to achieve his current state and strength, ranking tenth among the twenty-seven ancestors of the Dead Apostles. Now he was ridiculed by a mere human being and a mere piece of meat. This kind of thing is a disgrace to someone who has always despised human beings. To him, it was the ultimate insult.

The anger in Nero Kaos's mind rose instantly.

But even in the rage, his head still did not lose the most basic rationality. At this distance, as long as he withdraws slightly, he can leave here safely, but if he escapes in despair like this……

——How is that possible?!!

"Of course not! idiot!"

It was just a few seconds.

Along with the crisp sound of broken bones, Nero Kaos only felt a soreness in his neck, and then came the severe pain of broken neck.

How is this possible?

He had obviously just been Assimilated with the surrounding shadows, it was difficult for even the princess to find his position. But how did he find himself in such a short time?

Are these words just to anger himself and buy him time to find himself?

Impossible, it’s just a few seconds...

Nero Kaos tried to understand everything that just happened at the first time, just there. Before, Xia Yuan's powerful fists had already hit his face one after another!

The terrifying destructive power made his head and body as hard as steel make a dull sound, both on his face and limbs. He was constantly deformed during the beating.

In the process, he even felt like he was being turned into a piece of steel on an anvil, being pressed against the wall by Xia Yuan, a blacksmith, and beating wildly until all the impurities (life) in him were knocked out. Until he comes out.

The monster... is like a complete monster compared to me. I can't even resist in his hands.

I have to find a way.

"drink——！！！"

Nero Kaos did not sit still and wait for death. With the operation of a strange magic power, he saw the black shadow under him surge again, and then a huge wolf head rushed out of the shadow released from his deformed chest after being punched countless times. He came out and bit Xia Yuan's arm directly from a distance. Several black poisonous snakes came out of the shadows under his feet and wrapped around his legs, trying to take the opportunity to drag him into the dark quagmire.

"careful!"

Seeing this sudden change, Erquet and the two rituals naturally did not sit idly by and rushed over to support them.

However, this was a bit unnecessary.

"Back off!"

Xia Yuan shouted coldly, without explaining too much to the approaching women. The surging magic power, the melting floor under their feet, and the boiling flames were enough to explain it all. The black flames once again spread from the palms of the hands and from the body. The limbs swept out.

The surrounding temperature continued to rise, causing the moisture in the eyes to begin to drain away. The black snake wrapped around the legs was roasted into a mummy by the hot temperature in an instant; the horse pierced through the chest. The next moment the giant wolf came out, Xia Yuan clamped his head with his hands wrapped in black flames, let out a painful scream, and then tore it apart like Hercules in Greek mythology. Cracked.

And the floor under his feet finally collapsed because it could not withstand such high intensity of temperature, leaving only a straight ravine of magma in the middle, along with him and Nero Kao who was holding him in his hand. Si fell from the sky together.

Bang bang bang.——！！！

"let me go……"

While falling in the air, Nero Kaos wanted to take the opportunity to break free from Xia Yuan's hand. He controlled the beast factor in his body to cover the surface of his body with a layer of sharp poisonous thorns, and a pair of huge crow wings behind him were also ready to borrow. The plane takes off.

But what followed was not Xia Yuan's letting go and his escape. A heavy punch that shattered his face completely ignored his body wrapped in stings, and turned around in the air to directly smash the broken body of Nero Kaos. The body was pressed down like a rag, and then flew straight down from the seventh floor.

Those huge wings haven't waited to take off yet���Chance, it was torn down by huge force in mid-air.

Boom——!!!

As the two fell layer by layer, the continuous collisions made the collapse of the entire apartment building inevitable. Rather, it was a miracle that the building could still hold up for this long under such an intense battle.

Realizing that the building under his feet was beginning to collapse, Arquette quickly picked up the Shii beside him and quickly left the battlefield.

Falling from this height and then being hit by a falling object, or being seriously injured, is no joke, let alone having a body next to you, which is just a common ritual for ordinary people.

At present, it seems that there is no need to worry about Xia Yuan's battle situation. His strength is much stronger than he imagined. Even if he is at his full strength, he may not be able to get any benefits from him.

Nero Kaos had almost no power to fight back in front of him. From the beginning of the battle to the present, he could only be in a state of being crushed. If it weren't for his troublesome immortality, he would have been completely eliminated at this moment.

So they just need to leave here first, and then go down to support Xia Yuan.

This special girl is obviously very important to Xia Yuan, and the right solution is to protect her by herself, although she feels that this person does not need to be protected by herself at all.

After making reasonable arrangements, Erquette began to shuttle through the crumbling building in his arms, quickly running to a safe location.

On the other side - the two people who had fallen to the bottom of the building were still fighting fiercely under the building that was about to collapse.

Faced with the immediate threat to his life, Nero Kaos decisively revealed all his trump cards.

With his call, the shadows under his feet boiled and then expanded, and what emerged from them were no longer the previous beast familiars, but new, stronger special monsters.

For example: the gryphon with the head of an eagle, the body of a lion, and wings on its back; the giant venomous snake Hydra with nine heads and spraying poisonous mist; even the mythical monster Chimera with the head of a lion, the body of a goat, and the tail of a scorpion. was released by him.

Griffins, Chimeras, Hydras, and many composite beasts based on mythical monsters appear here.

Although it itself cannot have the power of these original monsters in the mythical era, it itself is definitely not something that modern magicians can deal with.

It can be said that Nero Kaos has already used his bottom card at this moment.

He released most of the beast factors stored in his body and stitched them together into these mythical monsters.

Nero Kaos, who spent so much effort, didn't even have the energy to say harsh words.

It's just that how can a composite beast that is just an imitation of a mythical monster resist Xia Yuan's full firepower? Even if the mythical monster reappears, he will kill you.

Just like before, the so-called composite monsters of Hydra and Chimera, facing the rising terrifying temperature of the pitch-black flame sword in their hands, no matter how many synthetic monsters they come with, they are just firewood.

"This is impossible!!"

So under the horrifying gaze of Nero Kaos, the three powerful synthetic monsters were cut into pieces by the sword of fire, and then burned directly to ashes in the scorching flames. , not even ashes were left behind, and the figure didn't even stop after easily destroying his synthetic monster. It just raised its steps and walked straight towards him with the remaining sparks under its feet, and then... shushuashuashuashua.————!!!

There were several piercing sounds in the air, followed by the sound of flesh and blood being burned by flames. Just a few minutes later, half of Nero Kaos' body was once again blasted into pieces, even though his flesh and blood were badly damaged. Still healing, but the swords of fire that followed were still being swung down.

Destroy, heal, destroy, heal, destroy, heal...

Repeated countless times, no matter how Xia Yuan killed him with the sword of fire, Nero Kaos could always recover from his injuries quickly.

Can't be killed.

Because Nero Kaos is the ancestor of the Dead Apostles who has integrated his own [Inherent Barrier: Beast King's Nest] into his body, he has obtained terrifying immortality by virtue of his characteristics. If the 666 stored in his body are not If the beast factors were destroyed at the same time, he would be able to be resurrected as he is now and cannot be truly killed.

This is also the reason why he causes the Holy Church the most headache.

But even though Nero Kaos possesses almost absolute immortality, in the process of being continuously destroyed and resurrected by Xia Yuan, Nero Kaos's cold expression finally became unbearable.

Destruction, healing, destruction, healing... destruction, healing... destruction, healing, destruction, healing, destruction, healing - this cycle has been repeated countless times in these short minutes?

His limbs would always be cut off by Xia Yuan at an extremely fast speed and then healed. Any resistance would be in vain. At this moment, he could not move at all.

Moreover, the guy in front of him seemed to be tireless. No matter how he slashed, his speed not only did not slow down at all, but became faster and faster.

I won't let you survive for another second.

Having already made an oath in his heart, Xia Yuan's magic power continued to rise.

Filled with rage, he cut off his limbs with continuous slashes and burned his body with flames.

At this time, Nero Kaos was quite panicked.

Although he couldn't be killed, the feeling of being tortured and the suffocation of the constant cycle between death and rebirth still made him extremely crazy.

This unpleasant experience of being crushed and tortured unconsciously reminded him of the humans he preyed on. How similar was his current situation to that of them when they were about to die?

Move, move—!!

If this continues, if the princess and the little girl who can bring him a death threat also arrive, it will be all over!!

At this moment, all the power I can use, any magical beast I can make, no matter who it is, come out and save me!!

The burst of strength and will to survive before death caused the black shadow under Nero Kaos' feet to expand in a circle again, and then several strange and terrifying monsters rushed out from it, trying to stop Xia Yuan's murderous behavior. , to give him a chance to escape.

But, it's useless.

Xia Yuan used his invincible aura to forcefully cut into pieces the monster that had just appeared.

In the shadow of black flesh, in the blink of an eye, there were a few more pieces of burnt flesh.

Seeing Nero Kaos's panicked expression, he finally spoke

"Are you scared?"

"Regarding death, you have obviously spread so much death and killed so many lives. Now I'm afraid of my own death"

"You have no right to live like this!!"

After approaching Nero Kaos, Xia Yuan raised his flaming sword and slashed several times, completely cutting into pieces the remaining self-confidence and self-esteem of the ancestor of the Dead Apostles.

However, because of this attack, he still could not directly Destroy all the beast factors, so Nero Kaos' broken body is still regenerating under his feet.

However, this stalemate has ended because it took a few minutes.

Erquit finally arrived here holding Shi.

When they arrived at their destination, Erquite's handsome and capable bodies broke away from Erquit's arms, their ice-blue eyes piercing the night sky, and the silver blades they held tightly in their hands.

He was about to bring real death to this inhuman thing who didn't know death.

Okay, now Xia Yuan only needed to restrict his movements and wait until Shi cut the death line on this guy.

Next , Shi held tightly.

She quickly stepped forward with the knife.

What should she do at this moment? She already knew very well.

She looked at the dead lines on Nero's body with her ice-blue eyes, and then she held the dagger tightly and looked for the confluence of these lines.

If he continues to draw the point, he will definitely die!

Seeing this black-haired girl who was like his natural enemy rushing up again, Nero Kaos was thinking crazily in his mind, and even I was stuck in a revolving door.

Is this going to happen? What should I do to survive? In short, I can’t do it, no matter how many familiars I release, they will be held back.

Killing the guy in front of me quickly.

That would just delay death.

But what would happen if I was cut by this knife? Countless thoughts kept running through Nero Kaos's mind.

, he has seen his own end.

No, he can't accept this ending.

"Ah ah ah ah ah——！！！！"

Along with the shrill scream coming from Nero Kaos's mouth, the strange magic power running in his body made Xia Yuan shrink his pupils.

"This is?"

At this moment, there is no way to hide anymore.

Tear open your chest, liberate your soul, and completely release the ultimate weapon that has been sealed in your body.

The so-called trapped beast still fights, nothing more than that.

The black shadow exploded directly, Swallowing all the surrounding scenes, the entire building completely disappeared from the outside world, and the dark wall of flesh and blood began to expand endlessly.

This is the flesh and blood of chaos, and it is the soil of chaos, and it exists in the world. Disaster.

Facing this mass of black flesh that was constantly overflowing, Xia Yuan looked solemn and recognized its essence.

【——Unique barrier·The Beast King's Lair! ]

At the moment of death, Nero Kaos actually released the inherent barrier sealed in his body to make this last desperate attempt.

The clearly visible roar of beasts echoed in my ears, and the vortex formed by the 666 beast factors in the body completely collapsed, as if a dark realm made of flesh and blood surrounded reality.
