Chapter 95 Side mission completed
Looking at the sword in front of him, the effect was almost no damage.
The emperor had a subtle expression, he could feel that the enemy's true level was only around elite knights, and there was still a long way to go before he could become a peak knight, but his skills, weapons, and abilities all showed extraordinary strength.
The moment his heart was pierced, the emperor's body collapsed and a cloud of aphid smoke retreated rapidly. After regrouping, his wound disappeared.
At the same time, next to the previously dim stone pillar, an adjacent stone pillar collapsed.
Jiang He took a step forward and disappeared on the spot. The Sword-Scale Snail Dragon Armor gave him a 40% increase in basic quality. When the excellent active skill Hunting Engine was activated, his speed and reaction increased by another 30%.
The Unintentional Death Curse was activated sixteen times in a blink of an eye, reducing the enemy's defense by a total of 16%.
In contrast, when the three skills are activated almost simultaneously, the energy value drops significantly.
The gun flashed and the dragon showed its claws.
At the side of the emperor, the Grey Knight had approached within arm's reach. The lightning that was surging all over his body destroyed his color-changing clothes. In the blurred figure's hand, a silver-plated long sword was covered with white light. With one strike, the sharp slash caused a whistling sound in the air.
Swords and guns attacked, but what caught the emperor's attention even more was a crow, which kept spitting out black gems under the stone pillars around the previous two stone pillars. Every time the enemy recovered, the stone pillars were damaged, so he chose to destroy them in advance.
Amid the violent explosion, the emperor smiled faintly.
The skeleton throne suddenly emitted a circle of hazy gray light, covering an area of twenty meters around it.
As Jiang He and the Gray Knight approached, their speed suddenly dropped to an outrageous level, and their attacks seemed to be in slow motion.
The emperor took apart the broad heavy sword with both hands. It turned out that the sword was composed of two single-edged swords. When the mosaic state ended, the edge of the sword suddenly became so sharp that it glowed coldly, like a praying mantis's sickle, which could cut through anything.
A side thrust of the sword pierced through the Grey Knight's head.
A sword slashed forward and hit someone on the side of the neck.
The sharp blade left a crack about an inch deep on the sword-scale snail dragon's armor.
The emperor was stunned for a moment. Although he had overestimated it, it turned out that the defensive power of this set of energy armor was even more outrageous.
Fortunately, the essence of the Skeleton Throne is the secret treasure of the sloth. In nature, this animal is ridiculously slow, only crawling a few dozen meters a day. The Sloth Knight was also a powerful warrior who was once glorious. The secret treasure he left behind after his death can greatly slow down the movements of enemies within range. He was known as the fastest falcon sword in the world, but he died from this move.
The second sword struck out and hit the same spot, causing a deeper crack on the Sword Scale Snail Dragon Armor.
Suddenly, a blurry figure filled with lightning exploded, and the body woven by lightning lines turned into dazzling white light, spreading upward along the single-edged sword.
Behind a stone pillar, the real Grey Knight appeared, stretched out his hand forward, and shot out a lightning arrow as thick as his forearm, with unprecedented power.
Seeing the lightning coming from the sword blade, at the critical moment, the emperor stared and decided to kill someone first. This guy's attack and defense were very tricky and must be dealt with as soon as possible. Moreover, with another sword, he was sure that he could completely break through the armor and cut off the opponent's neck.
The third sword fell without hesitation.
The armor that should have broken suddenly made a clanging sound.
In the equipment bar, a fragment of the Ant Knight's shell was transferred from the item bag and appeared. Energy was infused, and a prompt sound rang in Jiang He's ears.
[Hint: Your Compound Sword Scale Snail Dragon Energy Armor has obtained advanced blade protection]
The sudden change in the armor made the emperor stunned, and the sword that was supposed to behead him came to a standstill.
The white light of lightning extended to the arms and flowed to every corner of the body, causing uncontrollable stiffness.
Jiang He slowly pulled out his gun.
Just when the process was halfway through, a lightning arrow as thick as a forearm hit the skeleton throne, and white light swept across, and an explosion rose.
The deceleration capability surrounding the area disappears.
The Changhen Spear blasted the emperor's head to pieces.
Jiang He followed up with a punch with his left hand, activating the Ming Jin strike and Qing Hong Xue Energy at the same time, punching through the enemy's heart. This time, the emperor did not recover instantly.
Jiang He gestured for Wuhe to retreat. Otto the Great was one of the founders of the Holy Empire, a loose collection of hundreds of smaller dukedoms, autonomous cities, bishoprics, church territories, etc. He used his status as emperor as the main symbol and slept in the mausoleum for a thousand years. Each stone pillar corresponds to the former affiliated regime in the alchemical field and bears damage on behalf of the emperor in order. The key link is the aphid bloodstone.
Although the emperor's promotion failed, he still retained some higher-level characteristics. However, as the order was broken, his almost rogue domain recovery ability became ineffective.
In an instant, the entire library began to shake violently.
The tiny buzzing sounds of the aphids continued to gather together, forming a boom that pierced the eardrums.
The emperor's broken body glowed with a dim light, and the intact stone pillars all lit up.
Strictly speaking, the real Emperor Otto has long been dead, and those who are still alive are nothing more than his secret treasure corpse and memories. Not only his true combat power, but even the abilities of the Aphid Knight have not been fully displayed.
Jiang He drew his gun, and the aphids gathered together, guarding the emperor tightly in the center.
It was preparing to carry out the second great ritual, and the outcome was doomed to failure. However, besides success or failure, there was a third option, which was the Knight's fall, and he would be transformed into a monster dominated by soul weapons, without any reason at all.
A thunder python more than ten meters long hit the aphid storm, releasing white light. The explosion power was not inferior to that of a black light gem, but it seemed insignificant compared to the almost endless number of aphids.
"Do you have any other solution?" Grey Knight Rayman shouted.
"I've been standing in the front all the time, shouldn't you think of a solution?" Jiang He said unhappily.
Grey Knight Rayman was a little anxious. "Hurry up and use those explosive consumables. A few dozen of them will be enough to kill him."
"Do you think I can do wholesale?"
Jiang He looked like he was looking at a fool.
"Then this operation will have to end here." The Grey Knight sighed.
Jiang He was even more direct and turned around and ran.
The Grey Knight hesitated for a few seconds, gritted his teeth, and the silver-plated long sword in his hand released an unprecedentedly dazzling lightning. The energy value was rapidly consumed, as if a real lightning blade extended from the long sword.
The lightning blade flashed over a distance of dozens of meters, like a slender long bridge. If the Gray Knight swung it in a circle, the area within a radius of dozens of meters would become a death zone.
The lightning blade broke at the tip, and all the lightning poured into the aphid storm. Strands of white light penetrated from the center of the storm, and suddenly a loud thunder-like sound broke out.
Countless aphids died.
The emperor's charred body continued to mutate and grew a hideous insect head.
Jiang He clenched his fist from a distance when he saw this. When he pierced the enemy's heart with his fist, he was holding a handful of black gems. When he pulled his arm out, the black gems remained in the heart cavity, waiting to explode at this moment.
The second thunder rose in the mausoleum hall.
The Aphid Emperor, who was halfway through the process of corruption, was blown to pieces by the black gem originating from his heart.
A reminder sounded in someone's ear that the side quest was completed, and he quickly invested the two skill points he had obtained into passive gun skills.
[Spearmanship Mastery LV1→LV3, (Using spear-type weapons causes 29% additional damage)]
The emperor passed away, and the secret treasure of the silkworm that was dormant in the great vertebra of his spine fell to the ground, making a slight sound.
The Grey Knight turned to look at the comrade he had just fought alongside.
The other party was holding a spear high and smashing towards him.
