Blood tax

Chapter 74 The Clippers bound for Neopolis
After understanding the series of information about the aberration, Griffith also had a bottom line on the situation on the scene, and even quickly conceived of tactics.

Barrier Breaker's Extraordinary characteristics make him immune to fear and confusion effects, but unfortunately, Amber behind him does not have this ability.Even if Amber managed to distance herself from the influence of fear, she could not even talk about support because of her melee skills.

If it was going to be a one-on-one confrontation, Griffith was undoubtedly at a huge disadvantage in terms of strength and resilience.

However, the characteristics of rational evaporation and random charging can be fatal on the battlefield.

"Why don't you be afraid of me?" Quaxor looked at the human in front of him with the remaining small eyes.

Griffith held up his saber in front of him, examining the enemy's stance.

"I've got the blessing of the gods," Quaxor pointed at Griffith with its constantly falling and fragmented fingers, "why, are you going to give me a Bayeran battle cry or something else that makes people feel so excited? ,Oh!"

Before the aberration could speak, Griffith suddenly burst out and rushed to its left rear.

A thrashing sound of tearing the air ensued.The distortion body, Quaxor, waved his left hand and whipped it towards Griffith's back like a whip.

A venomous snake slapped Griffith on the back and burst open immediately.There was a loud bang in the air, and Griffith, who was hit, flew out like a ball and rolled on the deck.

"Little bug, do you want to hide in the blind spot of my field of vision?" Quark Sol, the aberration, turned around with his swollen body shaking.Its tattered left eye wound began to heal, and a mass of flesh and blood was squirming in the wound, apparently growing a new left eye.However, its flesh showed obvious decay and festering, and it was disgusting like a long-term soaked corpse.

The leather and chain armor behind Griffith, who was tumbling on the deck, had been torn in a shocking hole, and the blood had dyed his clothes red.He struggled to get up from the ground and ran towards the cabin ahead.

Quaksol immediately caught up.The trainee knight in front of him not only had one of his eyes blown out just now, but he is also one of the limited Beyonders on this ship.If he is allowed to distance himself to find more javelins, it will still pose a little threat to the mighty Quaxor.

The deformed body with a body size of more than three meters took a big step, swinging its scalp-numbing limbs and chasing after it.The thick cabin wall panels shattered in front of it like paper toys.

Another cold light flashed.A spear of ice suddenly shot over, piercing through the deformed body's calf and nailing it to the floor.

ice gun?magic?Quaxor blinked his small eyes, his almost rotten brain couldn't figure out how this thing came out for a moment.

Just then, Griffith rushed up.Holding a sword and a round shield in both hands, he was exposed almost without protection to the aberrations.

Quaxor immediately waved his hands and whipped up.The entangled serpents, centipedes and reptiles sliced ​​through the air with a loud bang, slamming against Griffith's shield.

Griffith's Vanguard Shield blocked most of the damage from the terrifying attack, and a violent hum reverberated through the cabin.The battered shield flew out directly, and then an ice wall appeared in front of him, blocking the second round of blows that followed.

The spell of ice structure is hardly used in actual combat.The frozen form does not last very long and takes up the caster's precious chant.

However, Griffith, who casts spells with prepared runes, does not have this problem.He can flexibly choose the structure of the Frost Spell, and without singing, he can construct simple forms such as walls, spears, and swords in a short time.

The fierce whipping of Quaksol's left and right tentacles didn't work, and he didn't know how to deal with the situation in front of him.It is a well-known axiom that legionnaires full of blood cannot cast spells.

Griffith leaped out of the shattered ice, past the underarm of Quaxor's raised right hand, and lunged behind it.

Not waiting for the aberration to keep up with Griffith's moves.A lightning strike came.

The flick of the aberration just now fully mobilized Griffith's body functions, and swung his double-edged blades towards Quark Sol like lightning.

The saber slits the back of Quaxor's neck.

The freezing damage attached to the sword takes effect, and the rotten flesh that is wriggling around the wound is frozen and quickly necrotic!
The corrupted feather fencing pierced Quaxor's ribs.

The shadow damage attached to the corrupted feather fencing exploded in the body of the aberrant, spreading the vicious trauma along the meridians and blood vessels!
Four hits!
"Ah!" Quaxor screamed, the damage of different attributes burst out like festive fireworks, squeezing dark green scum and broken body tissue from the back of the neck and ribs.

"Stop! Stop!" Quaxor gasped as he knelt on the ground, "Let me go, I can give you money, real estate, potions? You can do whatever you want. I'm Salian Quaxor... "

Griffith stopped abruptly, turned and left the fighting compartment without a word.

"Huh?" Quaxor watched the apprentice knight leave in surprise, only to feel that it all happened too suddenly.

Before the surviving brain of the aberration could figure out the cause and effect, Griffith had already run back from the cabin next door.He also carried two wooden barrels, one large and one small, in his hands, and splashed them towards the insect-human aberration from a distance.

Quaxor sniffed the liquid on his body, the smell of alcohol mixed with whale oil.

"What are you going to do? Wait, I'm the great and generous Salian Quaxor, and my name is known to everyone from the West Coast to the Broken Isles." If you can't kill me, how about we cooperate?"

Griffith took an object from the wall and turned to look at the aberration that had no human form.

"As long as we kill all the passengers on this ship, no one will know who I am! I was planning to do this!" Salian Quarksol said quickly with his swollen and rotten mouthparts, "As long as you cooperate Me, no one will know the truth, we can disguise as a sea monster attack! I have a Sealed Artifact that can do it all, flawlessly!"

"I know," Griffith fiddled with what was in his hand—an oil lamp used in the cabin.A flicker of fire lit the wick.

"What are you going to do!?" Quaxor shouted, "Are you going to light me with this broken oil lamp?!"

Griffith unscrewed the lampshade, glanced at the flickering flames, and threw the oil lamp towards the aberration.

"boom!"

A fiery red shield suddenly appeared in front of the aberrant.The oil lamp hit the shield and exploded into a bright fireball.But there were still sparks that ignited the fat on Quaxor's body and burned violently.

"Hahaha! Look, look! I have mastered it, this is the power of the great Salian Quaxor, the high-level fire spell - the Shield of Destruction of the Vulcan Lacy," the man was still on fire. Quark Sol shouted while slapping the flames on his body, "Next time I can use this spell completely, no attack can penetrate the defense of the Shield of Destruction."

"Then how did you get hit by my ice gun in the first place? Didn't you know this trick then?" Griffith shouted as he retreated to the side of the ship.

"That was your shameless sneak attack! From now on, my body will be under the defense of the Vulcan Lacy's Shield of Destruction at any time, and any external attack can't hurt me!" Quaxor rushed forward proudly.

Griffith turned abruptly and threw a dagger at the aberration.A bright, hot shield suddenly appeared in front of Quaxor, and the dagger made of steel melted and dissipated in the shield-shaped high temperature barrier before it could hit the target.

The temperature is so high, and the reaction is so fast.Griffith, who just wanted to try it out, was taken aback and turned around and ran.

The swollen aberration immediately chased after him.The walls of the cabin that had been hit by Quaxor were instantly smashed into ashes.Before it was shattered by its strange power, the extremely high temperature of the scorching flame shield had burned all obstacles to ashes.

Meanwhile, the wounds on Quaxor's massive body have begun to heal.The tragic wounds on its left eye, back of the neck, and under the ribs quickly grew new flesh and blood, and the epidermis burned by the flames also fell off, revealing a new layer of dead gray skin.

"Oh haha!" Quaxor swept around with his terrifying power, and Griffith didn't even dare to face its attack.

"Power! Power is coming! My sacrifice was successful, and the power I gained is real! This is the ultimate power that surpasses human beings!"

"God-given body! Immortality and immortality--!" Quarksol, who had evaporated rationally, recklessly vented its power, screaming and fighting, "And the Shield of Destruction of the Vulcan Lacy! Hehehehehehehe!"

"Fear! Tremble! Mortals," Quaxor raised his tentacles and slammed Griffith, who was forced to retreat to the side of the ship.

The huge tentacles hit the deck, and the solid hardwood was instantly shattered into droplets by the strange force.The seven-masted giant sailing ship Vernal Equinox let out an unbearable howl, and the entire hull tilted to one side.

Griffith was swept by the wind pressure and flew off the side of the ship like a paper man.In a hurry, he reached out and grabbed a broken deck, and at the same time slammed into the ship's board with a cracking sound.A palm-length nail flew over, pierced into his shoulder, and spattered blood.

Even being hit by the aftermath of the attack, Griffith was severely traumatized, dangling like a stuffed butterfly on a pushpin.

"Poor and weak, poor and weak, they are really poor and weak mortals. Now you can't run away, I'll catch you!" Salian Quaxor rushed forward again.In its eyes, Griffith is a pea rolling in front of him. Although he hates it, eating him is a spoonful!
At this moment, Griffith, who was covered in blood, raised his right hand, pointed at the rushing monster and said, "You are finished! Salian Quaksol!"

"Ha! Don't you have a brain in your head? Human!" Salian Quarksol waved his tentacles with amazing power, "You have no way to escape! On the side of the sloping ship, my tentacles can move easily, and you No place to stand - wow!"

Aberrations will always be affected by negative conditions such as center of gravity imbalance, rational evaporation, and random charging in battle.

It suddenly slipped on its feet during the frantic dash, completely lost its center of gravity and rolled towards the sea.

"Ice! Ice cubes?"

Where Quak Sol passed was covered with a thick layer of ice, as smooth as a mirror.

Griffith hung on the wooden slats on the side, barely opening his blood-dazed eyes: "Your feet are covered with ice, Salian Quaxor, you will fall directly into the sea, go and be with the fish and shrimp. !"
