Chapter 2295

~8 min read 1,435 words

Nameless Saint was very stunned internally, but he didn't turn his spearhead toward Afuni. He had signed a contract with Apocalypse Paradise with Afuni; if Afuni betrayed him, Nameless Saint wouldn't even need to make a move.

More importantly, the buff state Afuni added to Nameless Saint was still there, which explained a lot of problems.

"This is a type of debuff state. Every 25 seconds, either heal you or heal him, otherwise I will die immediately!"

Afuni's voice appeared in Nameless Saint's ear, and the two communicated through a micro-communicator.

After Afuni was attached, she received a prompt. Every 25 seconds, she would suffer an immediate death judgment, and she had to either heal her own side or heal the enemy to temporarily pass this judgment. After 5 minutes, this debuff effect would disappear.

If the time was controlled accurately, within five minutes, after Afuni used her healing ability 12-13 times, the Blood Feather would detach from her.

Hearing Afuni's words, Nameless Saint frowned tightly. The possibility of Afuni lying was not high. Under normal circumstances, once Afuni healed the enemy, the punishment of the contract would make her die thoroughly in a short time, and now, Afuni was still maintaining the contract state.

"Then heal me."

Nameless Saint stared tightly at Su Xiao in front, and golden lightning surged on the cross-spear in his hand.

"Are you sure? My current situation... is very wrong."

Although Afuni didn't know what would happen after healing Nameless Saint, she instinctively felt something was wrong. If there was no punishment for healing allies, then this debuff state would be too weak.

"Of course, use your weakest ability to try."

"Okay."

Afuni's slender fingers tapped lightly in front of her, and the air her fingertips touched rippled like water patterns.

Wave~

Light blue water-type energy surged on Nameless Saint's body surface. Initially, he felt a cooling sensation, and the water elements clinging to his skin felt like they were washing his body, but in the next moment, severe pain struck.

【You have suffered the healing effect of 'Spring of Enchantment'.】

【Warning: This buff effect is interfered with by an unknown ability, its nature has changed, you have suffered 270 points of true water-attribute damage, and in the following 10 seconds, you will suffer 10 points of true damage per second.】

Inside the kinetic mecha, Nameless Saint almost spat out a mouthful of old blood. This healing effect was too damn real, so real that it turned into true damage.

"Don't heal me! Stay away from me."

Nameless Saint was furious. Healing the enemy was one thing, forced by the situation, he could understand, but when Afuni healed him, he discovered that this healing was poisonous.

Being roared at by Nameless Saint, Afuni felt aggrieved. Of course, she couldn't continue to heal Nameless Saint; if Nameless Saint died, she wouldn't have a good time either.

Clang.

Nameless Saint was slashed back by Su Xiao, and a slash mark appeared on the chest of the kinetic armor.

As a Tier 6 contractor, Afuni was of course not stupid. Her thoughts turned rapidly, and she soon thought of a method. She took a seed from her storage space and threw it on the ground.

Pink vines grew rapidly, forming a huge flower bud. The flower bud bloomed, and a humanoid summon crouched in the center of the petals. She was a plant life, a temporary summon Afuni summoned using an item.

Afuni's idea was that the temporary summon was also an ally, and she could let this summon take the true damage of the healing.

It had to be said that Afuni's train of thought was very clear, and her imagination was not small. Thinking about it, to be able to participate in the Top Ten Powerhouses Tournament, how could she be stupid.

Afuni's method was indeed feasible. The only problem was that under the condition of being attached by the Blood Feather, once she healed her own summon, the summon's loyalty would slide down by a very exaggerated margin. If the loyalty was too low, what the temporary summon would do was hard to say.

Afuni temporarily solved the problem of being attached by the Blood Feather. Although she wouldn't aid the enemy in a short time, she couldn't help Nameless Saint either.

Without the pitfall teammate Afuni, Nameless Saint's pressure was greatly reduced.

Bang!

Nameless Saint crashed into the mountain wall, creating a human-shaped dent. The short exchange with Afuni just now, plus the interference of the Blood Feather, had already put him in a passive position.

"Liquid oxygen, burn!"

Nameless Saint stretched one arm forward, and a loading sound came from the kinetic mecha.

With a boom, a compressed fire line as thick as a finger sprayed out, heading straight for Su Xiao.

Facing this flame attack, Su Xiao of course wouldn't take it head-on. He jumped sideways while charging. Just after dodging the blue-white fire line, Nameless Saint, who was more than ten meters away, moved his arm.

Hum~

The fire line moved with Nameless Saint's arm, chasing closely behind Su Xiao. 3 seconds later, the blue-white fire line became thinner and dissipated. Nameless Saint bent his arm and clenched his fist, and an empty shell popped out from the arm of the kinetic mecha.

The long blade slashed toward his face. Nameless Saint, wearing kinetic armor, was not afraid at all. He gripped the cross-spear with both hands and met the slashing long blade.

The crisp sound of metal clashing was endless, and golden lightning surged.

"Blade Dao Blade · Extreme."

Su Xiao's seemingly ordinary diagonal slash was already too late when Nameless Saint realized something was wrong. A piece of armor on his shoulder was slashed away, and electric sparks surged.

Nameless Saint's movements paused, and the cross-spear in his hand lay in front of him.

Su Xiao kicked straight out. With a bang, the lower abdomen area of the kinetic mecha dented. Nameless Saint staggered back two steps, his body uncontrollably leaning low.

The effect of the slash on the kinetic mecha was not very good. After kicking the enemy into a flaw and stiffness, the muscles on Su Xiao's right arm bulged, and he thrust forward with all his might.

Crack!

The long blade pierced through the chest of the kinetic mecha, protruding from the back, the blade tip stained with blood.

The sound of loading ammunition came from inside the kinetic mecha. Nameless Saint held his palm forward, aiming at Su Xiao.

Because Nameless Saint was wearing kinetic armor, after being kicked into a flaw, the time his body was numb was reduced a lot. In battle, having money was still an advantage.

With a bang, a spiral bullet shot out from Nameless Saint's palm, directly piercing Su Xiao's left shoulder. Nameless Saint had two of these bullets, which were Holy Spirit-tier quality ammunition exchanged for minerals, specifically used to deal with Tier 6 top-tier big bosses.

Flesh and blood exploded at Su Xiao's rear shoulder, but he didn't care at all. After pulling out the long blade, he stabbed toward the neck of the kinetic mecha. As for why he didn't stab the skull, the skull of this thing looked like the hardest area at a glance.

Puff.

The long blade only sank in a little bit, and Su Xiao felt a firelight strike his face. The crystal layer climbed rapidly on his body surface, and an impact force hit his face.

The impact spread, and gravel splashed in the surrounding area. Su Xiao was blown away by the firelight. After his body flipped in mid-air, he landed in a squatting posture. After his soles slid a few meters on the ground, he stopped.

Su Xiao's left hand lost sensation. He tapped the Black King Armguard on his left arm lightly with the blade hilt, and the armguard opened rapidly and fell to the ground.

On the back of Su Xiao's left hand, a gray mark appeared. Starting from this mark, his left hand had turned gray-white, the skin cracked and withered, and the cracks spread rapidly to his forearm.

Su Xiao pressed the blade edge of Dragon Flash against the elbow of his left arm. With a flick of the long blade, he slashed off his own left forearm. This section of the arm couldn't be saved; if he didn't slash it off, that kind of crack would spread to his whole body.

For Su Xiao, breaking a left forearm actually didn't count for much. After returning to Reincarnation Paradise, he could recover as before by consuming a certain price.
