Chapter 507

Seeing that the Thirteenth-Order Ringed Ringed Shushi truly made no move, Dac Nisi held the gun in his left hand, pressed it against the back of Little Miya's head, prepared an attack stance with his right hand wearing a red glove, and then retreated step by step into the bushes.

He also knew that he absolutely could not involve more people.

Under these circumstances, there was no way Xia De could take action, so he pondered the potential impact of this event and looked sideways at this Thirteenth-Order Ringed Ringed Shushi from the Church of Creation.

Noticing Xia De watching him, Mr. Pi Luote whispered an explanation:

"The other party is a cultist from Coldwater Harbor. You should have heard of the Coldwater Harbor Shadow Incident that caused such a stir a while ago."

"Yes, Priest Ao Gu Si mentioned it to me; it seems to be related to the worship of mermaids."

Xia De whispered in reply, watching as the somewhat broken Little Miya was dragged by Dac Nisi into the rose bushes. Because this was not the main venue for the banquet in the courtyard, the light was very dim, and combined with the flower trellises and the mist from the fireworks lingering there, the two of them could almost be considered completely out of Xia De's sight.

"Not mermaids, fish-men... it doesn't matter. Mr. Han Mi Er Dun, stand here and don't move. I will come back to find you in a while."

Saying this, Mr. Pi Luote walked quickly toward the rose bushes. Although he was sturdy, he made almost no sound as he walked. In the thin mist, it was almost in the blink of an eye that he disappeared, and Xia De did not even hear the sound of him pushing aside the bushes.

【Will you stay where you are and not move?】

"What do you think?"

Xia De took a small bottle from his pocket and dripped the extract of weather-vane blue grass onto the tip of his tongue:

"Using miracles and curses will leave traces of elements; I cannot get too close to them. Besides, I can only strike once, otherwise, my identity will definitely be discovered."

【Outsider, what exactly are you trying to do by following them? With a Thirteenth-Order Ringed Ringed Shushi there, you won't be needed regardless.】

"I just want to obtain a drop of Dac Nisi's blood."

He noted the position where he was currently standing, then tiptoed to approach the rose bushes as well.

Behind the rose bushes was a small path in the courtyard garden. Although all three people had disappeared, because one end of the path led toward the central axis of the Yodel Palace and the other end continued toward the edge, ending at a glass conservatory, Xia De chose to walk toward the glass conservatory.

He took the mask doll out of his pocket, restored it to its normal size, put it on his face, and turned the ragdoll coat into real clothing to wear over his formal suit. Although it was so dark here that it wouldn't matter even without a disguise, Xia De felt it was safer to be cautious.

Before he had walked many steps, he saw light flickering from the glass conservatory. Xia De bent his waist and held his breath. After approaching the conservatory, he saw the unconscious Little Miya lying on the gravel path that curved toward the entrance of the conservatory. He checked him and confirmed that this unlucky fellow had merely fainted.

"Have they started fighting?"

Xia De thought to himself, using the flower pots planted with saplings outside the conservatory to shield himself, approached the glass wall, and carefully looked inside.

The room was pitch black, and he could only see two dark shadows almost tangled together. One of them was Dac Nisi, whose right half of his body had already turned into the form of human pus, while his opponent, Mr. Sa Li Pi Luote, the Thirteenth-Order Ringed Ringed Shushi, also had his right hand swelling up.

The glass roof of the conservatory scattered the moonlight, and only faint light entered the conservatory. Mr. Pi Luote's swollen right hand revealed a strange brass-colored metallic luster in the cold three-colored moonlight. That metallic right hand collided with the pitch-black, pus-like giant hand; this scene appeared incredibly eerie in the silent yet noisy night.

Xia De had once thought that the power of Dac Nisi's "human pus form" was invincible, but that high-temperature mechanical right arm, engraved with divine runes and spewing steam, was actually able to contend with the human pus in terms of power.

Neither side used miracles or curses that might produce huge light or loud noises, relying more on physical strength to contend. The insulated glass conservatory suppressed some of the sound, only letting muffled "boom-boom" sounds leak out intermittently.

Xia De watched this scene intently. Although Mr. Pi Luote's strength was not equal to Dac Nisi's, the metallic-lustered right hand combined with the left hand capable of using divine arts gradually suppressed Dac Nisi in the low-intensity battle.

The latter also realized that the current situation was unfavorable for him. After waving his massive, root-like right arm to block the light bullets flying from the divine art light of Mr. Pi Luote's left hand, he swept his massive right arm across the ground, causing flower pots and shelves to surge forward.

And when Mr. Pi Luote pushed his left hand forward, clearing away the debris as if parting the sea, Dac Nisi suddenly raised his right arm, letting his face be revealed from behind the swollen right side of his body:

"Ugh!"

He actually vomited, and terrible black pus shot out from his mouth, which was stretched wide enough to almost tear the corners of his lips.

Because there was no light inside the conservatory, Xia De did not see the flight trajectory of that black pus clearly, but he saw Mr. Pi Luote retreating rapidly while using his mechanical right arm to block.

If that were just ordinary pollutants, Mr. Pi Luote's action would have been correct, but unfortunately, it was human pus.

The Thirteenth-Order Ringed Ringed Shushi maintained his hand-raising posture, stiffening in place for two seconds as if stunned, and then the clothing on his body began to squirm as if it had come alive, wrapping around his head in one motion. No, it wasn't the clothing on his body; it was the black pus that had stained his body, rapidly absorbing the power of emotions and coming to life, wrapping and binding him like a black spider web.

The foul and terrible aura, and the fear felt instinctively by the body, all proved that it was the pus of human pus. The dark emotions and mentality of human nature grew like poisonous sores, and the venom finally erupted; this was human pus.

"He was too careless..."

A Twelfth-Order witch was infected by human pus while caught off guard and was forced to sink to the bottom of the sea to give up the pursuit. Xia De did not know who was stronger between the Thirteenth-Order Ringed Ringed Shushi and Miss Xi Wei A Fu Luo La, but Mr. Pi Luote's "human pus resistance" was clearly no better than that of a witch possessing two sets of occult systems.

Seeing Mr. Pi Luote entangled, Dac Nisi did not think he could kill a Thirteenth-Order Ringed Ringed Shushi this way; instead, he turned and ran.

Xia De gripped the brooch with the Sun Holy Emblem in his pocket, but ultimately did not use it; the power of the Sunlight Spear would be weakened in a night environment, and the commotion would be too great.

He looked at the exit at the other end of the conservatory and quickly put the 【Seal of the Demon Hunter】 and the Ring of Mental Crystal on his left and right hands, respectively.

Squinting at Dac Nisi's figure, in order to pass through the exit of the conservatory, his body had already returned to its normal human form. At the moment Dac Nisi stared at the Thirteenth-Order Ringed Ringed Shushi entangled by the "human pus" and pushed open the glass conservatory door with his body while backing away—

"La Ge Lai's Leap!"

Silently, at the very moment Dac Nisi pushed open the glass conservatory door and his mind was most relaxed, Xia De appeared behind him.

First, his right fist struck out rapidly:

"Mental Shock!"

Pure spirit channeled silver blasphemous elements, flowing through his arm to the ring. The three crystals on the ring glowed simultaneously, and as Xia De's fist approached the back of Dac Nisi's head, it detonated the opponent's mind with a miracle.

At this moment, Xia De could feel that the opponent's mental strength was like a pitch-black, strange mountain, but the sudden explosion still caused the opponent to be dazed for a moment:

"Seal of the Demon Hunter!"

After the right fist slammed into the back of the opponent's head, the left fist followed through. The moment the Seal of the Demon Hunter touched Dac Nisi's head with the fist, a sharp scream that almost shattered the glass conservatory suddenly erupted from the palm of Dac Nisi's right hand, which had not yet put on a glove.

Rolling black smoke poured out from the spot where the seal made contact with Dac Nisi, and in the intense pain and instinctive panic, he finally broke free from the influence brought by 【Mental Shock】.

But Xia De did not give him the chance to turn around and see him.

Left fist retracted, right fist delivered, right fist retracted, left fist struck in succession. The reason for wearing the two rings on separate hands was so that while one fist was retracting to gather strength, the other fist could still be utilized.

The assault of 【Mental Shock】 and 【Seal of the Demon Hunter】 was cycled three times before Dac Nisi, struggling back and forth in intense pain and mental confusion, finally turned around.

With anger and panic, he raised his right hand, and the screaming palm was aimed directly at Xia De's masked face.

At this time, there were five seconds left in the ten-second cycle of 【La Ge Lai's Leap】, and judging from previous experience, retreating would not be able to break free from the suction of that mouth.

So Xia De did not dodge at all; instead, at the moment the mouth in the opponent's palm suddenly widened, he thrust his left fist, wearing the 【Seal of the Demon Hunter】, directly into that terrible demon mouth:

"Moonlight Greatsword!"

"Ah!"

The darkness in the demon's mouth, which seemed capable of melting everything, caused the skin on Xia De's left hand to peel and the flesh to rot, but it could not dissolve Xia De's ring-wearing hand immediately.

At the same time that the demon's mouth emitted rolling black smoke, the greatsword pierced from the palm of Dac Nisi's right hand to his wrist, as if this sword had merged with his right arm.

He screamed, hugged Xia De with his left hand, and actually wanted to fall with him into the black vortex that had appeared behind them at some unknown time.

But Xia De knew that the Thirteenth-Order Ringed Ringed Shushi's steel right hand had failed in the battle because he was unfamiliar with the opponent's fighting style, while he himself had the upper hand because of a sneak attack and targeted preparation. If the fight continued, Xia De would not be able to defeat the opponent, so as the two stumbled backward, 【La Ge Lai's Leap】 reached the tenth second after use, and Xia De disappeared into the air again.

Dac Nisi did not even try to find this despicable sneak attacker; he took one step into the black vortex, and then his body tumbled out from another vortex in the bushes not far away. He used the 【Darkness】 talent for spatial movement, and the maximum distance was shorter than Xia De's.

In a few leaps, this Sixth-Order Ringed Ringed Shushi disappeared into the night in the Yodel Palace garden. But Xia De, who had just escaped, crawled out of the bushes again, lunged and lay on the ground where the two had just fought, and used the curse 【Move Object】 to draw the blood on the ground into the bottle in his left hand.

He put away the bottle, rolled on the ground, and dived into the bushes again. As the rose bushes rustled, Xia De's figure also disappeared under the moonlight.

Dozens of seconds later, Mr. Pi Luote, with spider-web-like black traces on his body, walked out of the conservatory, raised his hand to point at the sky, and a bright light trail ascended, then exploded into golden fireworks under the night sky.

Five minutes later, King La Lu Si III suddenly appeared and announced that tonight's birthday banquet would end early.

Ten minutes later, Silver Cross Avenue was completely sealed off, and a temporary martial law was imposed for the night.
