Chapter 920: Inevitable Death
Seeing that the ice crystal long spear covered with white frost was about to stab the surveillance screen, the sound of a gunshot rang out, and a yellow-orange bullet arrived first, hitting the middle of the ice crystal long spear, causing it to shatter suddenly and break inch by inch.
Franca, who had transferred to another mirror decoration, saw the resurrected female corpse's action and understood the other party's intention, so she hurriedly took out the "Spear of Inevitability" again, stretched it out of the mirror surface, and pulled the trigger.
After successfully preventing the stabbing of the ice crystal long spear, she immediately had to retract her hands, pretending to be moving to other mirrors with Jenna, Anthony, and Ludwig, inducing the resurrected female corpse to chase in, and surrounding this enemy.
But the resurrected female corpse didn't even look in her direction, and sharp ice frost long spears condensed in front of her body, letting them stab toward the large screen simultaneously.
This was like a huge ice flower carved out was blooming.
Franca's pupils widened instantly. Taking advantage of the fact that her hands hadn't returned to the area behind the mirror, she pulled the trigger of the "Spear of Inevitability" again.
Bang!
That classical-looking brass-colored revolver fired an iron-black bullet. After it hit one of the ice frost long spears, it actually produced a small explosion.
This explosion covered all the ice frost long spears, tearing them apart and scattering them in all directions.
"Heavy Strike"!
Slap, slap, slap. Some ice crystal fragments were inevitably thrown onto the surveillance screen, hitting the large screen with multiple dead pixels and areas where colors overflowed.
Franca was almost scared to death; the large screen almost suffered complete damage!
She then detached from the mirror-like decoration, returned to the surveillance room, and launched an attack on the resurrected female corpse with all her might.
In this situation, only using offense to suppress the opponent and not letting her have the spare energy to destroy the surveillance screen was the best strategy. Pure defense couldn't hold on for a few times; after all, the items that needed protection belonged to relatively fragile technological products.
There's only a thousand days of being a thief, where is there a thousand days of guarding against theft? There's bound to be a slip-up!
Bang, bang, bang, Franca pulled the trigger continuously, firing bullets, forcing the resurrected female corpse away from the area closer to the large screen.
Jenna also left the area behind the mirror and guarded directly in front of the surveillance console to prevent stray bullets from damaging the screen.
Almost at the same time, Jenna felt that she had crashed into invisible spiderwebs, and transparent thin threads were tied to her body.
These thin threads bound her hands and feet, and some teased her state, trying to limit her actions and interfere with her casting black magic.
Fortunately, Jenna could also be considered to have relatively rich combat experience now. As soon as she left the mirror-like decoration, she condensed several evil "Witch" black flames around her body, and now she immediately let them fall, burning the spirituality of the transparent spiderwebs and spreading.
The strong feeling of binding reduced a bit, and Jenna moved sideways one step, blocking in front of the large screen.
Crack!
She used "Mirror Substitute" to block the attack launched by the resurrected female corpse on the surveillance screen and the stray bullets manufactured by Franca's continuous shooting.
In this process, Franca emptied six ordinary bullets, hit the resurrected female corpse once, and consumed one of the other party's "Mirror Substitute."
She then retreated to the large screen, loaded bullets with a specialized loader, while Jenna tacitly rushed forward, replacing Franca, and used her pistol, frost, and black magic to attack frantically, suppressing the enemy.
Everyone was currently at the Sequence 7 level, and a short-term explosion without considering the consequences was still very effective!
Just like this, Franca and Jenna rotated continuously, one guarding, one attacking, one loading bullets, one firing rapidly without worrying about whether the bullets would run out, restricting that resurrected female corpse to the near-door area for the time being. But because the other party had "Mirror Substitute" and her spiritual intuition was strong, and her combat experience was also rich, Franca hadn't used bullets like "Pregnancy" yet, nor had she activated either of the two effects of "Inevitable Hit" and "Inevitable Death."
She was waiting for an opportunity, because a "Witch" at the Sequence 7 level shouldn't be able to use "Mirror Substitute" many times!
Even if the resurrected female corpse had reached the demigod level before and obtained the characteristic of reduced consumption for "Mirror Substitute," she could use a few more "Mirror Substitute" than they could at the Sequence 7 level, but it definitely wouldn't be many more.
After fighting intensely for dozens of seconds, Franca and Jenna both felt weak, their lungs like burning bellows, constantly spraying out fire-like breath.
At the same time, they had varying degrees of pain all over their bodies.
They knew very well that this was caused by the diseases and decay spread by those two plague bombs before. And because sticky flesh and blood and yellow-green pus were everywhere in the surveillance room, mystical pathogens and decaying power were still constantly strengthening. Infection finally occurred in the two "Pain Witches" who had disease resistance, and it gradually became serious.
Franca and Jenna didn't want to use "Mirror Substitute" to resolve the disease and decay immediately. Their "Mirror Substitute" was currently very limited in quantity, and they wanted to save it to protect the large screen.
What made Franca puzzled was that her "Spear of Inevitability" was clearly also spreading diseases and decay continuously, but that resurrected female corpse didn't seem to be affected too obviously, only becoming weaker than before.
Is she really a living corpse or a marionette, immune to most mystical pathogens, and has relatively strong resistance to decaying power? She only used spiderwebs to influence Jenna before, and later gave up this strategy, because spiderwebs belong to flammable materials with spirituality, which would lead to the "Witch" black flames that could only be manufactured in clusters to spread, burning the mystical pathogens and decaying power in the air, delaying the speed at which we fall ill and the progress of the severity of the symptoms? Franca's thoughts flashed, and she actively manufactured spiderwebs.
The invisible spiderwebs wound toward the resurrected female corpse and Jenna respectively, forcing the former to use the "Witch's" black flames to avoid them, and reminding Jenna that she could produce and sell them herself, letting this area completely fall into the burning of "Witch" black flames, thereby clearing the mystical pathogens and reducing the intensity of the decaying power!
…………
Inside the Mingyue Plaza in the surveillance footage.
Lu Mian suppressed the resurrected female corpse in all aspects, just hindered by the fact that the other party had "Mirror Substitute," her spiritual intuition was strong, and her combat experience was rich, so he couldn't end the battle quickly.
At this time, the flames had spread, burning most of the fourth floor of the mall into a crimson ocean. Lu Mian released the accumulated spirituality and flashed behind the "resurrected" female corpse again.
He didn't swing the "Sword of Courage" directly but pushed his left palm forward.
His palm was already holding a cheap silver-white and black bracelet, and his eyes presented a silver-black color, with an illusory river flowing slowly inside.
The resurrected female corpse didn't hesitate, following the reminder of her spiritual intuition, and was about to actively activate "Mirror Substitute."
Just at this moment, the toxic smoke produced by the burning was inhaled into her throat, and the high temperature caused her black hair to appear to self-ignite.
These environmental problems caused the resurrected female corpse to reflexively shrink her body, slowing down by a beat.
"Magnify Fate"!
Lu Mian had already used "Magnify Fate" twice before, and neither had achieved a satisfactory effect. The "weakness" pathogen he had secretly spread, which could survive for a longer time in high-temperature flames, hadn't exerted its effect as he had predicted, only causing the resurrected female corpse's spiritual consumption speed to accelerate unknowingly.
Now, with the help of the environmental changes brought about by the long-term burning of the flames, he finally grasped the opportunity and successfully turned the corresponding branch of fate into the main trunk.
As the resurrected female corpse shrank her body slightly, the crimson flames covering the surface of the "Sword of Courage" extinguished suddenly, revealing the iron-black sword body made of metal.
Some areas of this sword body were smooth and flat, reflecting the back of the resurrected female corpse.
The next second, the black "Destructive Flames" condensed by Lu Mian in advance fell onto the metal "mirror surface" and drilled in.
The resurrected female corpse, who failed to use "Mirror Substitute" in time, let out a painful sound, and her body shattered with a "pop," re-outlined at the edge of the crimson hell, but the black flames erupting from inside to outside, restraining violence and terror, continued to burn her, only extinguishing part of it.
Once the "Despair Witch" curse succeeds, the characteristic that it cannot be transferred by a substitute was suppressed to the Sequence 7 level, turning into a substitute that could only transfer part of the curse damage.
Slap, slap, slap!
The resurrected female corpse continuously activated "Mirror Substitute," finally getting rid of Lu Mian's curse.
But at this time, Lu Mian "Teleported" directly in front of her, asking with a smile on his face:
"How many more 'Mirror Substitute' do you have?"
While speaking, he had already slashed the "Sword of Courage."
The resurrected female corpse was dazzled by that charming smile and didn't react until the "Sword of Courage" was close, flying toward the side quickly.
She had no more "Mirror Substitute"!
She was fast, but Lu Mian was faster. He paused his wrist, and the "Sword of Courage" slashed into the air, slashing out the sound of an explosion.
Boom!
The crimson flames exploded, directly sweeping the resurrected female corpse inside.
Although this explosion only had the power of Sequence 7, it was enough to severely injure a Witch without "Mirror Substitute"!
Bang, the resurrected female corpse was slapped heavily against the wall, slapped until her bones broke and she spat blood.
Water ripples swayed on her body, fading away the bright appearance, turning into a young man with a dull expression and ordinary looks.
Lu Mian frowned slightly and slashed down with another sword.
Rolling, the young man's head rolled to the side amidst the wild spray of blood.
His body, together with his head and the splashed blood, disappeared like an illusion and didn't appear again.
"A deep mirror image of the real female corpse?" Lu Mian had seen similar, gender-reversed "people in the mirror" in the Fourth Epoch Trier.
And the special mirror world fragments in the hands of Franca and Jenna could also manufacture similar deep mirror images, with strength nearly perfectly restored and having certain special characteristics.
Thinking of this, Lu Mian raised his head abruptly and looked at the surveillance camera covered by smoke.
He suspected that there was also a special mirror world fragment on that resurrected female corpse!
…………
In the surveillance room.
Franca and Jenna, who had already been infected, were becoming weaker and weaker, and their movements were inevitably affected to a certain extent.
The resurrected female corpse was about to seize the opportunity to destroy the surveillance screen when she suddenly felt something jump over beside her.
It was Ludwig, who was squatting like a frog.
He didn't know when he had come out of the mirror world.
The resurrected female corpse instinctively stabbed the ice crystal long spear toward Ludwig.
Ludwig opened his mouth abruptly, his mouth corners splitting to the back of his head.
His two rows of sharp teeth closed, biting the tip of the long spear.
Immediately after, he quickly sucked a breath into his mouth.
He completed a "Deprivation" with the help of the ice crystal long spear connecting himself and the resurrected female corpse.
"Deprivation" of "Mirror Substitute"!
—Currently, he only had the Sequence 7 level and could only "deprive" the enemy of one ability, and could only "deprive" it for one minute, so Anthony let him choose "Mirror Substitute."
"Attack with full force." Anthony's voice sounded in the ears of Franca and Jenna.
Franca didn't ask why, and immediately raised the "Spear of Inevitability," aimed at the resurrected female corpse, and pulled the trigger.
A dark yellow bullet flew out with a "bang."
"Inevitable Hit"!
