Chapter 1271

When the last ray of sunlight in the west disappeared by the lake, the light of divine magic illuminated the silent night slightly.

Xia De and the two ladies walked out of the forest together. As the night wind blew, a cold wind that did not belong to the end of winter blew toward them.

Looking at Eldron Lake not far from the forest, under the moonlight, the ice surface that had signs of thawing was covered with a layer of frost white again. And this was just the situation on the lake surface. In fact, under the joint spellcasting of the three high-tier Shushi of the church on the opposite bank of the lake, a huge ice pillar had formed under the center of the lake, completely sealing the area of black mud with abnormal colors under the water surface.

"This is a basic curse, Breath of Freezing. Any curse, as long as it can be mastered proficiently, can become very powerful as the level increases."

The witch said to Xia De. Xia De actually also knew this curse; it was taught by Miss Galina, but he could only blow out an ice flower in a teacup.

The church's action looked very effective. At least in the process of the ice surface constantly thickening, no abnormal situation appeared. But just as the freezing ended and the ice surface was at least five centimeters thicker, a sudden ground tremor made the earth seem to roar.

"Earthquake?"

A major earthquake centered on Eldron Lake appeared so abruptly. The strong earthquake even made people unable to stand firmly, which easily reminded people of the earthquake when the pollution source appeared at the banquet manor.

"The earth is fighting back!"

Xia De supported Luweiya, Miss Bernice supported the two, and the three together heard a clear "crack" sound.

Cracks appeared from somewhere on the ice surface first, and then directly penetrated the entire lake surface. After the earthquake that lasted for thirteen seconds ended, the ice layer on the entire Eldron Lake was shattered like a spider web.

And the aftershocks appeared almost within a few breaths. In the strong vibration, all the Ringed Shushi by Eldron Lake felt the angry roar that seemed to originate from the depths of their hearts.

Under the moonlight, the ice layer in the center of the lake completely melted, and then the lake water actually began to bubble like boiling. The boiling lake water gradually began to turn black. Before the Ringed Shushi of the Orthodox Church risked flying into the sky above the pollution zone to observe, a huge black mud water column broke through the ice layer and shot into the brilliant night sky of the suburbs.

In the eyes of Xia De by the lake, this was simply like a giant python dancing in the lake water. The black mud mixed with lake water reached the high sky, and then sprinkled toward the surrounding area of the lake like a rainstorm.

"Power of Earth · Abundance Domain!"

The purple-eyed girl cast the spell in time. While the warm feeling attached to the surface of the body, the mud rain falling from the sky did not cause any impact on the three.

And the church opposite the lake reacted faster. The erupting black mud only lasted for less than ten seconds, and the lake water began to freeze from the root of the black mud water column, and soon froze the entire water column, making it look like a giant ice-colored python, which had become a solidified giant python.

"Is this the end?"

Xia De, who was holding an umbrella for the two ladies, asked suspiciously, retracted the umbrella head and looked at a few small black dots flying in the high sky, the light of divine magic was trying to dissolve the black mud that erupted. The prayer sound on the opposite bank was getting louder and louder, and the ritual runes left on the ice surface were lighting up one by one. After the eruption of black mud was suppressed, the purification ritual was about to begin.

"There is someone over there."

The witch said suddenly, pointing to the forest on the southeast side. When the earthquake started just now, a few clouds that didn't know where they drifted from covered the moon, so the edge of the forest looked pitch black at this time.

Even with dark vision, one could only vaguely see a few shadowy figures by the lake in the distance. The other party didn't even use any method to hide their figures, gathering by the lake quite conspicuously, as if they were throwing something onto the ice surface.

"Do you want to go take a look?"

The witch asked, Xia De looked at Luweiya, and Luweiya tossed a coin:

"Better go take a look."

Having a diviner by your side is just so convenient.

The three of them walked over and noticed

that they were three Ringed Shushi wearing black robes. Two middle-ring and one low-ring, the middle-ring Shushi who was the leader was a middle-aged man, wearing a pair of glasses, holding a burlap bag in one hand, and throwing particles like coarse salt onto the ice surface.

They also noticed the appearance of the three Xia De. The man wearing glasses stopped his work, turned his head and declared:

"You are late. The relic that will descend in a while is not called by us; we are just here to do some finishing work. Even if you arrest us, it won't affect what happens next. Besides, we are not the only three doing finishing work."

"What relic? And, we are not from the church."

Xia De said, so the strange middle-aged man was even happier:

"That's good. I was just saying, how could doing some finishing work be caught by the church? The money for this field trip is not worth my life."

"Then can you tell us what finishing work you are doing?"

Xia De asked, somewhat understanding what Stone Osenfort meant by "major event," which should refer to the finishing work these three people were doing.

"We are bestowing very magical power on a relic that is about to arrive."

The strange middle-ring Shushi said with a smile, looking at the three people:

"Two women and one man, and still in the wild, what a good mood... However, since you saw us, sorry, please die."

That bag was thrown toward the three, and it exploded in the air like a steam bomb.

The smoke and dust swept across the lake shore. Although they had just made harsh words, the Ringed Shushi wearing black robes immediately turned around and wanted to escape into the woods, relying on the cover, but a clear female voice came from the smoke and dust:

"Earth Wall!"

Bernice, who was in the smoke and dust, stepped on the ground, so three tall earth walls rose from the ground in front of the three who were fleeing, and gaps were left between each earth wall.

"Moon Thorn!"

Xia De cooperated with the spellcasting. The scarlet thorn bushes drilled out of the soil filled the gaps between the earth walls and quickly spread to the wall surface.

The earth wall summoned by the witch was really tall. Whether it was detouring or climbing over or flying over, it was very time-consuming. Of course, seeing the blood-colored thorn bushes with crystal-like luster spread all over the wall, the middle-ring Shushi who was the leader didn't attack with his fists directly, but shook his right hand, and the black sphere that appeared in his palm smashed toward that wall.

There was no explosion at all. That black shadow sphere dissolved a large part of the wall, and even dissolved part of the blood-colored thorns—after all, this miracle was to prevent the opposite side from coming in, and the defense on the same side was slightly weak.

But even so, the middle-ring Shushi who threw the shadow sphere turned pale, feeling his spirit and physical strength appear to be strangely lost in an instant. At the same time, the blood-colored thorns that absorbed the opponent's power spread again, not only filling the hole dissolved on the earth wall, but also becoming more and more charming, as if they could drip blood in the next second.

As long as you carry the blood-sucking effect of the blood-colored thorns and attack two or three more times, Xia De's miracle could be disintegrated, but at this time they had no time.

The arc-shaped bright silver light arc that swept over forced them to turn around and defend. Even if they shattered the 【Moonlight Slash】 Xia De swung casually, the chance to escape had also disappeared.

The six people looked at each other, and then Bernice walked toward the man who was the leader among the three. The other party was probably an eight-ring; Luweiya frowned and looked at the black-haired man with long hair. This was the only low-ring Shushi among the three, but the man was holding an obsidian pendulum, which was a relic. The man looked at Luweiya with suspicion, and then looked at the pendulum rotating like it had fallen into a steam turbine, as if he had encountered some problem.

And Xia De's opponent was the remaining six-ringed Shushi. The other party looked gloomy, as if he had insomnia. Before Xia De could make a move, he rushed forward violently, and then the whole person exploded into black smoke with a bang.

Subsequently, the explosion sound of "bang~" appeared from above Xia De's head again, and it was also marked by black smoke. The six-ringed Shushi held a pitch-black sickle and slashed toward Xia De.

"Spatial power, not

relying on strange relics or other things, he himself has spatial power!"

Xia De was a little surprised. It was not that he had never encountered opponents with spatial power, but most of those things were not human. Human opponents with spatial movement power were mostly Chosen Ones, and this time it was finally an ordinary Ringed Shushi who had spatial power himself.

He didn't dodge the sickle that the opponent slashed down. A scarlet short knife appeared in Xia De's hand, and then he held the knife with both hands to block the opponent's attack. At the moment of stalemate, a sharp chain pierced out from Xia De's sleeve, and the sharp end of the chain pierced toward the opponent's right eye.

The Ringed Shushi in the air immediately grabbed the cold chain with both hands, and the power of the Seven Deadly Sins made his body stiffen immediately.

"Hmm?"

The sickle was still wrestling with Xia De, but both hands had indeed grabbed the front end of the chain. Xia De was very surprised at how many arms the opponent had.

The man's third and fourth arms quickly let go of the chain, and with the force of Xia De's short knife, he jumped lightly in the air and landed again, also dodging the chain that was dancing and sweeping. And while he landed and squatted to unload the force, the destiny ring belonging to the six-ringed Shushi was completely revealed behind his back.

The spiritual light of the spirit rune on the destiny ring made Xia De see that the other party indeed only had two arms. It was just that an extremely dim red phantom was tightly attached to the other party's back, and the Ringed Shushi himself stood on tiptoe, letting the red figure's feet insert between his heels and the ground.

That pitch-black sickle was actually held by that blood-colored phantom.

"What the hell is this? Special undead?"

Xia De was still seeing this kind of strange ability for the first time. Looking at the opponent's destiny ring again, the spirit rune with the most flashing spiritual light at this time was 【Blood Ghost】.

"A spirit rune with an extremely definite meaning. Is this a dedicated miracle corresponding to the spirit rune? Blood Ghost..."
