Chapter 388: Is it really human?

With a plop, the forearm landed. Lust was stunned, raising her half-bare arm; at this time, the back of her hand had been cut off by half.

"Wire?"

Lust's gaze focused, faintly seeing a metal wire in the air.

The fallen forearm quickly decomposed, turning into ashes and drifting in the air.

Red electric light flickered at the wound of Lust's severed arm, and a new arm was generated in less than two seconds.

The recovery power of a homunculus is extremely strong. As long as the energy of the Philosopher's Stone in the body is not exhausted, the homunculus can continue to recover.

There are two ways to kill a homunculus. One is to destroy the Philosopher's Stone in the other's body, which is very difficult; although the Philosopher's Stone seems easy to destroy, its hardness is above that of a diamond.

Another method is to severely injure the homunculus and exhaust the energy of the Philosopher's Stone in the body.

Destroying the Philosopher's Stone is faster, and Su Xiao prepared to try it.

Stepping on the ground, spiderweb-like cracks appeared on the stone floor of the church.

Zhan Long Shan slashed through the air, making a terrifying whimpering sound.

A flash of blade light appeared in Lust's eyes. She only felt her neck go numb, and her vision began to spin.

Slashing off Lust's head with one blade, Su Xiao stepped forward, his left hand wrapped in red arm guards reaching out, his palm like a knife, directly piercing Lust's chest.

Lust's body strength is not high, only slightly better than an ordinary person; only that tenacious recovery power is troublesome.

The palm wrapped in metal pierced into Lust's chest, and Lust's head had already regenerated.

"Ah~!"

A scream came. It seems homunculi have pain perception, which makes things much easier.

"You bastard."

Fierce light appeared in Lust's beautiful eyes, and all the fingers on her hands turned into sharp blades. The blades were slightly curved, and the tips were extremely sharp.

This is Lust's ability, the Ultimate Spear, which can pierce most materials.

Swish, the sharp blades on Lust's hands extended. In just an instant, the sharp blades formed by her fingers had extended to three meters long.

Su Xiao tilted his head to narrowly avoid it, a wound appeared on his cheek, and blood gradually overflowed.

Among the seven homunculi, in terms of attack power, Lust is definitely the strongest.

Must not be pierced in the torso. Just now, it was only a graze, and Su Xiao received an instant-death judgment. The prompt from Reincarnation Paradise made him have lingering fears.

【You have been attacked by the 'Ultimate Spear', judging...】

【The attack site is the skin, instant-death judgment failed.】

Two prompts indicated one piece of information: the homunculus's strength is stronger than in the original work.

The palm piercing into Lust's chest gripped tightly, and Su Xiao pulled his palm out with force.

"You guy wants to..."

Lust's body gradually turned into ashes, and a Philosopher's Stone appeared in Su Xiao's hand.

A large amount of muscle proliferated on the surface of the Philosopher's Stone, wrapping Su Xiao's palm inside, and Lust's body reappeared.

"Suddenly grabbing a lady's chest, is this a gentleman's behavior?"

Lust looked at Su Xiao with a charming smile, and the Ultimate Spear formed by her fingers pierced toward him.

Exerting force under his feet, Su Xiao jumped backward, stopping after sliding a distance upon landing.

Zzz~.

The sound of metal wires tightening came, and Lust staggered forward uncontrollably for a few steps.

"The Philosopher's Stone is entangled."

The Boundary Line pierced into Lust's chest, and one end was already entangled on the Philosopher's Stone.

Su Xiao tightened the Boundary Line, and Lust's footsteps staggered.

Stepping forward quickly, Su Xiao slashed off Lust's arm with one blade. His movements didn't stop. Just as Lust wanted to counterattack, he had already slashed off the other arm with a backhand blade.

Puchi.

A head flew up. Not only that, Su Xiao also slashed off Lust's legs by the way.

The more body tissue that needs to be repaired, the faster the Philosopher's Stone in Lust's body consumes.

Qing Gang Ying was already fully activated. Su Xiao's mana recovered to 750 points, consuming 30 points per minute. He could activate Qing Gang Ying for a total of 25 minutes.

Each slash burns 50 points of mana, accompanied by 50 points of true damage, which accelerated Lust's death speed.

Lust's body gradually regenerated. Su Xiao stood not far away holding his blade. When the other's body regenerated, he immediately stepped forward to add another blade.

This was his first time fighting this type of enemy, so he remained vigilant.

Lust's arms gradually recovered. Blade light flashed, and the newly born arms were slashed off.

Lust's recovery stopped—not because the energy of the Philosopher's Stone was exhausted, but because she knew that if this continued, she would die.

The man wearing a mask in front of her reminded her of someone, and that was Wrath.

Lust stopped recovering, seemingly brewing something.

Su Xiao stood in place without moving. If the enemy doesn't move, he doesn't move. For the recovering Lust, he didn't dare to approach rashly.

Heaven knows what part this woman will recover first. If an arm suddenly regenerates and he happens to be on the attack trajectory, that would be dangerous.

Lust's body trembled. Su Xiao subconsciously wanted to retreat, but it was too late.

Lust suddenly regenerated at high speed. In less than a second, the severed head and limbs were all restored.

"Ten Thousand Spears Piercing the Heart."

Lust stretched her hands forward, and the sharp spears formed by her fingers pierced rapidly.

The piercing speed of the 'Ultimate Spear' was very fast, almost arriving in an instant. Su Xiao had already sensed the danger, but his body couldn't dodge.

Watching an extended sharp blade pierce toward his forehead, Su Xiao tried his best to tilt his head, but it was already too late.

A transparent shield appeared around Su Xiao, and the Ultimate Spear pierced the shield. The shield shattered in response. Although it was only a fraction of a second, Su Xiao gained a buffer time.

Puchi.

Blood sprayed out, and a wound deep to the bone appeared on Su Xiao's temple.

Blood flowed down his cheek, and Su Xiao's eyes didn't blink.

What he activated just now was the shield attached to 【Mikasa's Intent】. After Mikasa's Intent was strengthened +5, the shield became more powerful. He usually wouldn't use the shield, only in critical moments.

Shelter (Active): Quickly generate an invisible shield to defend against attacks. The shield's durability is equivalent to 80% of the holder's maximum health, lasting for 30 seconds.

80% of maximum health. Su Xiao's current physical attribute is 35 points + 274 points of health from the Shadow Constitution bonus. The attack intensity that Shelter (Active) can block is quite considerable.

Even so, when the Ultimate Spear pierced the shield, the shield shattered immediately. If it had pierced his head, Su Xiao would definitely die; this is beyond doubt.

Must not be attacked in vital parts by this woman. No, being attacked in important organs might trigger an instant-death judgment.

Tightening the Boundary Line, Lust felt a chill in her heart. Her core Philosopher's Stone was entangled, and she couldn't escape even if she wanted to.

The sharp blades formed by Lust's fingers slashed toward the Boundary Line.

Ding.

Sparks splashed, and the Boundary Line was undamaged. Instead, blood gushed from Lust's chest.

Lust spat out a large mouthful of blood, her eyes widening.

"If this continues, I will die. Is this guy really human? Must escape immediately." ===== CHAPTER 389 =====
