Chapter 1740
"Ah~~~~"
The harsh scream attacked Xia De's eardrums at the same time the moonlight went out. The gurgling sound disappeared, and the sharp scream first shattered the only remaining glass around St. Deran Square, and then even suppressed the sharp whistle of the strong wind.
Blood flowed from Xia De's ears. He endured the splitting headache, faced the tall monster behind the building, and slashed the silver moonlight with the long staff in his hand:
"Moonlight Slash!"
But the moonlight arc only flew halfway, and was shattered into light chips by the invisible tentacles dancing in the darkness at the roof position. Xia De's eyes had also adapted to the darkness at this time. In the space behind the merman that he thought was just darkness, tens of thousands of pus-filled tentacles emerged behind the mountain-like pitch-black figure, as if adding a pair of huge black wings to it.
Looking at this scene in the pitch-black world, people with weak minds would probably fall into endless madness immediately. Xia De bit his tongue, estimated the remaining amount of spirit, and understood that he probably only had one chance.
The water vapor in the air was increasing. The dancing tentacles aimed their ends at the square behind the merman. After less than two seconds of accumulation, tens of thousands of black water arrows shot toward the square, which served as a gladiatorial arena.
"Moonlight Greatsword!"
Xia De held the holy silver greatsword in his left hand, and the golden shield appeared in the darkness. The escaping light protected Xia De in an eggshell shape, and then the water arrows that shot quickly destroyed the few remaining complete floor tiles on the square in a rumbling sound.
The pitch-black water arrows with corrosive and destructive properties bombarded the shield, and dense cracks appeared at the same time. Xia De and the magic shield were uncontrollably pushed backward because of the impact, even if he stabbed his left-handed sword into the ground, he couldn't control the trend of retreating at all. The boots rubbed on the ground until Xia De's soles touched the ground, and his feet drew two straight marks in the ruins of the square—
Thump~
Until the back foot supporting the body hit the broken fountain behind him, and at the cost of the fountain base completely shattering in the darkness, Xia De finally stopped retreating.
"Lagley's Jump!"
Looking up, the body appeared above the continuous arrow rain. At the same time as appearing at high altitude, Xia De, who seized this only opportunity, raised his staff with his right hand and drew a circle:
"Moonlight Ring - Second Form!"
Hum~
In the hot steam mist, the six-ring life ring appeared completely behind him, illuminating the square in the darkness, and the vibration of spirit and air even made a buzzing sound that shook the space. The light marks left by the top of the staff in the air quickly gathered into a moonlight ring, and became larger and larger as the staff kept rotating, until it covered half of the square.
At the same time, the merman's scream came from the darkness again. As the water arrows under Xia De's feet rose, the houses opposite the square were destroyed from bottom to top, and the hand of the huge merman's black shadow also swept across in the air.
These things existing in the doomsday era of the 【Past】 can all be called evil objects. Although the degree of power is not as exaggerated as the "Evil Object of Pantanal", it is definitely not something that normal people can come into contact with.
The evil objects in the doomsday era are also in a weak state, and in the special doomsday environment, the power of these disaster evil objects will not have a direct impact on the environment, so Xia De has the qualification to intersect with them.
At this time, his "Moonlight Wheel" accumulation could not be stopped. The price of the exaggerated size and attack power of "Moonlight Wheel - Second Form" is that the huge consumption does not allow him to use it a second time in a short period of time. Therefore, facing the giant hand whistling from the darkness and the ten thousand water arrows below, he could only choose to resist hard.
Therefore, while the huge light wheel rotating in his hand flew forward vertically with a hum, Xia De was also hit by the giant merman's attack at the same time.
The light ring cut open the black shadow vertically, and the holy moonlight is the nemesis of darkness and shadow. In the wailing, the black shadow collapsed, and Xia De's clothes were corroded by black water. Even if he avoided it at the last moment, there were five or six penetrating wounds on his body.
In the rumbling sound, he was directly slapped onto the building on the side of St. Deran Square by the giant hand. The buildings that survived in the doomsday era became incomparably strong, so they didn't collapse under such bombardment.
The life ring was forced to disappear, and Xia De, who was seriously injured to "false immortality", fell from high altitude with the building garbage to the edge of the square, but tried to support the ground with his hands and looked at the sky. The darkness did not dissipate, and the whispers in the darkness affected him even more seriously in his spirit-scattered and seriously injured state:
"Not dead?"
The seriously injured body began to heal under the powerful self-healing power, but this was far from enough. The spirit consumed by the full-force "Moonlight Wheel" was not enough for him to perform powerful attacks again.
On the pitted square, there were black sticky liquids everywhere. Xia De waved his hand behind him, and the small pink perfume bottle that fell when he fell flew into his hand.
For the relics brought in this time, he naturally didn't choose 【Night Watcher】, but chose 【Desire Perfume Bottle】. Although Night Watcher is extremely powerful, in a special doomsday environment, supplies are obviously more important.
Since recovering from a serious illness, Xia De has experienced two nights of red butterflies, experienced many exciting nights, and experienced special relationships with Megan and Audrey. At this time, the liquid in the perfume bottle directly emitted an ambiguous light in the darkness. Xia De had confidence in his current poison resistance, so he drank half a bottle, and his skin turned pink all at once.
He felt as if hot flames were rising from inside his soul, and then he jumped up from the ground uncontrollably:
"Call Water!"
Clear water poured over his whole body from the air. While the 【Deep Sea Drowned Blessing】 took effect, he grabbed a handful of black soil from the ground to fill the penetrating wounds on his body, and the "active soil" turned into flesh and blood to accelerate the healing of the wounds.
While recovering, he walked toward the square, and the black shadow in human form of normal height also walked from the other side of the square at this time.
"The second stage, right..."
He waved his hand again, and the black wooden staff that fell not far away flew into his hand.
The light at the top of the wooden staff illuminated the surroundings, revealing the true identity of the enemy. It was indeed a pitch-black merman, a head fused with man and fish, and a human body. As it walked, black corrosive liquid dripped from its body. Because it was illuminated by light, the wriggling shadow swayed and constantly swallowed objects on the ground. It itself was like a dark abyss, capable of swallowing everything.
The merman was relatively thin, and it could be seen that it was thin when it was in human form. And looking carefully at that ugly face, Xia De recognized who the evil object in front of him was:
"Are you... Mrs. Lemaire? (Chapter 174)"
Mrs. Lemaire came to No. 6 St. Deran Square for commission before last summer because of the advertisement Xia De published in the "Steam Bird Daily", asking him to investigate whether the distant relative who left her property, the sailor Jonathan Lemaire, was a scam.
Xia De later investigated that Jonathan Lemaire was also a ring warlock, and found his safe house in Cold Water Port. He learned about the curse of 【Mermaid Song】 and came into contact with "Miss Princess" who visited from Wilendell City, which is Princess Lei Qianya, and then led to the Cold Water Port shadow event, the conspiracy of mermen, and the "Sea Return" ritual of the Scarlet Secret Cult.
That was a year ago, and the woman who got the inheritance had improved her life a lot. During the year-end festival, Xia De even received a greeting card sent by her. But Xia De can be sure that because his investigation was very thorough, Mrs. Lemaire herself definitely did not go to Cold Water Port.
He really didn't expect to meet when they met at this time point that didn't exist. This poor woman who raised her child alone actually became such a terrible merman:
"Tree Father arranged for me to meet an acquaintance again... In the Sixth Era without me, Mrs. Lemaire actually went to Cold Water Port and became a merman? Without me in the Sixth Era, how many tragedies are there?"
She is not just a merman now. The darkness and shadow power entangled on her body is more terrifying than all the strange shadow creatures and lower demons existing in the out-of-control angel-level relic 【Dark Domain】 combined. And looking from the perspective of "Magic Vision", she is entangled with countless spirits and demon power, which is more serious than the situation of the dark Chosen One Ivan Darkness at that time.
"The enemy this time corresponds to the disaster of darkness?"
There was a clear split wound on the center line of the merman's body, which was clearly the wound caused by Xia De's "Moonlight Wheel" just now. It walked toward Xia De, who was also staggering, and then suddenly turned into a pure black light and rushed toward Xia De's head.
"Moonlight Slash - Third Form!"
Xia De also rushed forward fiercely, holding the sword staff in his chest with both hands, and his body turned into a cross-shaped light mark and flew forward. So black light and silver cross collided in front of the damaged and crooked girl statue, black shadow and silver moon confronted, black light flow and silver light shadow splashed in all directions.
Only five seconds, Xia De, who couldn't support it, appeared in the light first. He didn't give up the confrontation, stood on the ground with both feet, turned on the power of the Red Dragon at the same time, bent his body forward, and crossed his hands in front of him to rely on his arms to resist the constantly approaching black light.
He saw countless spirits grabbing his whole body, and he felt darkness and shadow swallowing his own existence.
"Get back!"
So the moonlight greatsword in his left hand was first swallowed by the shadow, and then the silver moon light attached to the 【Staff of Yggdrasil】 in his right hand gradually faded.
Xia De's feet had already sunk into the ground at this time, and the spider-web-like cracks spread to the earth with his feet as the center. The source of the earth he swallowed allowed him to try his best to support his body and not fall down, but that darkness had corroded his hands and gradually approached his front body.
"This kind of darkness..."
The skin of flesh and blood was melting, as if the abyss opened its mouth in front of him, and countless hands stretched out from it, wanting to drown Xia De in darkness. But his eyes were already glowing at this moment:
"I have long had the courage to fight against darkness!"
