No.70 A Headless Shadow

Chapter No.70

He was timid.

As a member of the "Grey Tail" army, it was his first timidity when he swore an oath of loyalty to the being who, as the king of the underworld, gave them a new life.

It's not that he has disobedience to his leader and his own oath, but because what he saw and heard in the scene before him is too unbelievable.

He couldn't help but wonder, even if they, the elite troops dubbed "Grey Tails", drank the potion that brought madness and strength at the same time, how likely would they be to succeed.

One step of light, one step of darkness.In this intertwined shadow of light and darkness, as an outpost monitor, he dialed the communication device.

"Report to the captain, this is number five... Excuse me, do we really want to make a move now?"

Through the communicator, the observer in the shadows tried to maintain his calm tone—no one had a deeper memory of the scene just now than him.

In between breaths, there were nearly 30 people, and all of them lost the scene they should have... It was as if an invisible hand was pinching his throat, and Ling had been observing No. [-], who was their target man, out of breath.

Number five even suspected that he was hallucinating——when the man opened the umbrella in his hand to block the sun, he saw a phantom of a creature behind the man.

Although it is common for the animal shadow totem of one's own race to appear when casting Originium skills, this "phantom" that symbolizes the male race is something that Number Five has never heard of in his entire life.

He dared to swear with his life that even in a place as vast as Terra, there would never be such a creature! —— Or should I say, it is not a "beast" at all!It's real, the "human" appearance they have now!

It stands to reason that this is unimaginable, but the situation alone is not enough to make No. [-], who is a member of "Grey Tail", feel frightened.

Because the phantom of that "person" has no head!

Bloated to the extreme, like an obese body that would leak sticky fat pus at any time.

Just looking at it from a distance, you will feel a physical nausea.

Paradoxically, that body.

But it is so white that there is no trace of filth, like a layer of smooth powder sprinkled on it.

Reflecting the sunlight in the air, so dazzling, so radiant.

If it weren't for the endless gap in the palm of the hand, like a big bloody mouth showing its inhuman nature, Number Five might feel how satisfying it would be to fall into its "embrace".

Although he didn't know why he had such an inexplicable impulse, he couldn't understand it, nor could he understand what he saw and heard before him.

So he hesitated, when reporting the situation to his superiors.

"No. [-], what are you talking about? Have you forgotten the task that the lady gave me!"

"But Captain, I..."

"As Lord Mouse King's subordinates, we 'Grey Tails' don't need waste! I order you, either choose to continue to monitor their actions, and then silently count for 60 seconds to follow everyone; or abolish your own origin stone skills, forever Disappeared in the land of the lower city of Longmen!"

The voice on the other end of the call was full of annoyance. Obviously, they were extremely dissatisfied with the timid words of No. [-]—how could they do such a thing of running away if they were as loyal as them?

"...I see, Captain."

After a long silence, finally, No. [-] made such an answer.Hanging up the phone, calming down my extremely unsteady mind, I picked up the binoculars again and stared at the street surrounded by low buildings not far away.

Yes, for Lord Shu King, they must act without choice... But why, why is he so disturbed?Obviously the target is only one person, an ordinary Victorian man wearing a monocle.

Touching the glass bottle of potion in his bosom that can eliminate "timidity", No. [-] is still a little embarrassed.

He was worried that they would ruin themselves, live up to the high expectations placed on them by their eldest lady, and fail to save their respected leader...

Until the end, they were dilapidated and separated, and even the eldest lady couldn't protect them, and they watched the tragedy unfold helplessly.

......

It was a man full of indescribable charm in every gesture.

From the first time I met him, Mostima was so determined in his heart.

Not only because of his outstanding appearance and maverick behavior style...but also because what he gave her was the answer she had been looking for for a long time.

He showed her the possibility of the impossible, so that she couldn't restrain her desire, and was defeated in the struggle between the two of them for the first time.

Where that possibility came from, Mastema still does not know.

But Mostima at least believed in one thing... Her choice was not wrong.That man, as he said, would equally give that possibility to everything that was riddled with grievances on Terra.

The only and dazzling possibility to reverse the tragedy and turn sorrow into joy.

.....

"Go die die die!"

The hand raised the knife and fell, the metal sounded.

"To die...to die..."

In the constant killing with all our strength, no matter how full the spirit is, it will be empty.

“…”

bang....

Accompanied by the crashing sound of the last weapon falling to the ground, right and wrong were reversed, and light and shadow reversed.

Like clockwork dolls that have run out of power, all the attacking madmen fell down one after another——in the midst of their mutual attacks.

Just as Mastema had seen, the man with the glasses and glasses was still standing there unscathed.Beside him, there are gangsters who have fallen one after another...and he didn't even move his footsteps.

"Daina, you really gave me a problem..."

Getting off the car, looking around the mess, the fallen angel named Mostima shrugged helplessly.

"How should I understand it, the spirit stone skill? But it doesn't feel exactly like it. Simultaneously precisely manipulate 27 people and let them fight each other to the death, without hurting one person's life... As far as I know, the spirit stone Art can't do it."

"Hehe, please follow Miss Mostima's understanding. Just like Miss, you can use different staffs to cast two completely different origin stone skills. Everyone has their own uniqueness, right?"

Putting away the opened black umbrella, Xu You put it on the ground again.Turning around, he looked at the blue-haired fallen angel who had left the vehicle, and smiled slightly.

"Well, that being said, my Originium skills are not as incomprehensible as Dana's... Speaking of which phantom just now, can't it really be Dana's 'race'?" Blinking , Mostima also smiled—but she still gained some extra information about this man.

Although, the phantom that didn't look like a benevolent person in a flash did not make Mostima really think that Xu You's race was that kind of weird thing... But she still have their own guesses.

Could it be that he, like himself, is also a "guardian" chosen by certain existences and things?Well, that's really a coincidence. Could it be that this is "fate"...

"'Race'...Miss Mostima, you are joking. You are from Sakota. When you use the Originium skill, you don't see an angel that only exists in the holy scriptures behind you?"

Regarding Mostima's joking tone, Xu You raised his eyebrows, then shook his head helplessly—if it wasn't because he wanted to show his "chip" to those who secretly coveted it, he wouldn't say anything To use this power.

After all, this is not like the type of power that a decent person would use... If there is a showdown and conflict with the governor who may have obtained part of the mysterious power, Xu You does not want to see himself like this when the ability is activated. The people around were stunned and then stared suspiciously at his appearance.

If the situation is worse, he may be understood by the melon-eaters as the biggest mastermind behind the scenes--Xu You must try to avoid this kind of unreasonable disaster.

"sough...."

The morning breeze blew through the streets among the crowded low buildings, and a few flimsy leaflets danced in the air.Sweeping past an ordinary gangster attacker who was lying on the ground without moving, Xu You turned his gaze to a more secluded distance in this slum.

"Let's go, it's time to meet the main messenger here, Ms. Mostima."

No.70 Chapter Two

"Oh!"

Accompanied by the blast of a signal flare, Xu You knew that he had waited for the ultimate goal of his trip.

Compared with the gangsters who were like miscellaneous soldiers just now, in this attack, in Xu You's view, the other party finally decided to take the real action.

"call out----"

That was the sound of arrows bursting from the crossbow, breaking the wind from all directions, and breaking the old metal billboard stays on the path of the two vehicles.

----boom!

The dust was flying, and the back road available for vehicles was immediately cut off.Between these low buildings, the opponent's arrangement is like a huge net.

"Go! Kill him!—"

"For Lord Mouse King!——"

Shout out, street corners, shops, houses——

Unified standard equipment, orderly command.

The logo on the cuffs seemed to symbolize the identities they regarded as honor, and with the protection of the wind and sand source stone shield, they attacked the direction where the two were located.

"The rockbreaker team is ready, cut off the target's escape route! Warlock team attention, peripheral cover support!"

The familiar command operation makes it hard to imagine that this is a deployment that a gangster on the dark side can make.

An elite soldier is like a torch, but a difficult dragon cannot fly.I have to admit that under such an arrangement, even if a certain special inspection team leader came, I'm afraid he might not have enough confidence to break through.

Xu You could tell that this gang, the biggest underground force in Longmen, had put in a lot of effort to deal with them... As for the purpose, those who know it will know it.

But as the two "targets", Xu You and Mostima looked at each other when they saw the well-equipped enemies pouring out like a tide, and they both saw a trace of inexplicable expectation in each other's eyes.

"It's troublesome, Dana. An enemy of this level, even for me, is a bit tricky, okay?"

"Who knows, Ms. Mostima. Anyway, their target is me. If you voluntarily surrender, maybe they will let you live?"

"Haha, Dana, you really know how to joke. Have you forgotten what I said, 'tricky', all of this is just 'tricky' to me. If Dana, you are not afraid that we will I don't mind doing my best to be regarded as the headlines of a terrorist going to Longmen~"

After stepping out of the vehicle, Mostima patted on her rather thick Penguin logistics staff uniform—the dust in the slums of the lower city is indeed quite heavy.

"And... Dana, you are my prey. For this reason, I have to wait for you for half a year. If you are taken away so easily, even I will be angry."

Holding up the black lock and white key together, there is a smile and indifference that cannot be seen on the face.No matter how the enemy's arrows shot past him and the man next to him, he couldn't hit them no matter what.Mostima raised the Originium staff in his hand, squinted his eyes and aimed at the group of Originium shield guards who were rushing.

"How to distribute, I kill the near ones, you kill the far ones? I think this is good. After all, I don't have as good eyesight as an angel in long-distance battles. If I miss it, it will be bad. Maybe we can solve more problems than anyone else." ?”

Compared with coping with the enemy's attack, it was more like playing a game of a small size——even, a child's mentality of competing.

"Okay, I don't mind."

Nodding slightly, Xu You responded.But immediately, he seemed to think of something and spoke again:

"However, if you don't mind, Ms. Mostima, I hope you can save some hands...I admire their loyalty. This is not a place for them to sacrifice."

"Don't worry, I know this, Dana, you are a kind person. Even I have to admit... a guy who has the ability to give this kindness."

"Sniper, shoot faster! Use the penetrating bullet, kill that man first!"

Even though there was a distance, Xu You and Mostima could hear each other's orders clearly.It has to be said that people's pursuit of ethereal and unrealistic things is always far greater than everything in reality...sometimes for it, even at any cost.

"Boo! Hah! Hah!"

"clang--!"

This time, the three crossbow arrows equipped with the blessing of Originium skills did not miss again.

But unfortunately, just as they were about to approach the man with the monocle who was closing his eyes and muttering something silently, a silver-white long spoon staff interrupted and stopped him.

"Huh! Huh!"

There was another burst of crossbow bolts from different directions, but the same ending as those three crossbow bolts, all of them were blocked by the blue-haired Sakota woman who was clearly a warlock, but whose sensitivity surpassed that of the guards and even the assassins. Down.

"?!"

Wielding the long sticks attached to the source stone, the troops that were close to them were about to pass by the woman and attack the man——but the same fate as the clusters of crossbow arrows, it seemed that there was a force in front of the man's eyes What is driving them, making it difficult for them to hit men no matter what.

"Good morning, everyone in the slums of the lower city... It is not so easy to realize your wishes. Has your master ever thought about this?"

With a light swipe, Bai Shao's staff released extremely rich energy ripples.With the unstoppable thrust, all the nearby attackers were knocked into the air.

"You say so, Dana?"

Looking at the man who gradually reopened the umbrella, Mostima smiled.

"Probably so, Miss Mostima."

Xu You slowly opened his eyes as the silent chanting fell from his mouth.The shadow under the umbrella was looming, and he shook his head helplessly in the face of a group of enemies who were at a loss and hovered outside the ripples opened by Mostema.

"Compared to fighting and killing, I hope everyone can sit down and have a good talk... Calm down a little bit, everyone."
