The attacker was obviously afraid of the witch's black flames. He flexibly dodged the cursed flames thrown by Angel, but the frost under his feet greatly affected his movements, and there was still a black flame stuck to his elbow.
In an instant, black flames ignited on his entire left arm, quickly spreading upwards and threatening to ignite his whole body along the arms.
The "giant" with a gloomy face immediately pressed his left shoulder with his other hand, tore off the entire ignited arm, and threw it at Angel along with the blood spurting out from the wound.
"Boom——"
The arm exploded in the air like a bomb, and with the shock wave generated by the explosion, blood rained all over the sky towards Angel who was dodging back.
This is Flesh Bomb, he is the "Rose Bishop" of Secrets Suppliant Pathway!
Quickly judging the opponent's Potion Sequence, Angel let the cold air quickly condense into Frost in front of her, creating a thin, almost translucent, but extremely tough Frost shield that blocked the spilled blood.
The dirty blood corroded the ice surface and burned holes in it, but Angel had already bypassed the ice shield and came to the side of the "giant".
"Bang bang——"
Quickly taking out the revolver at his waist, Angel activated the two "Storm Convergence" missiles and shot them at Rose Bishop's tall body, not seeking to kill with one blow, but only seeking to cause effective damage.
The "Giant", together with the bloody hand that quickly grew out of his left shoulder and was temporarily not covered by skin, used his arms to block his fragile head and neck, but was shot in the chest and abdomen one after another, leaving two bloody bullet holes in his body.
"Uh-huh——"
He didn't know whether it was pain or anger. He roared out. Just as he put down his arm, he saw a few Black Flame flowers floating towards him. He quickly rolled away from the place, took another bullet in his waist, and ran towards the door of the apartment he just came out of, crawling on the ground.
"Not using 'Shadow Lurking'?"
Angel, who had dealt with Rose Bishop many times and even predicted the opponent's next move, was stunned. He retracted his right foot with the power of ice and continued to shoot and chase the "giant" until the opponent fled into the apartment in embarrassment.
Looking at the dark entrance on the first floor of the apartment, Angel did not immediately pursue it. Instead, he used "Flaming Jump" to select the landing point for Spirituality detection to find possible fire sources in the apartment.
Although she could see in the dark, it was not in her habit to rush into a place that was obviously a trap.
Don't be impatient, even if this guy is probably related to Lanevus.
After finding the unextinguished flames at the explosion site on the third floor, bursts of bright yellow flames erupted from her body and she disappeared on the street. The next second she stepped on Angel on the third floor with her feet, the smell of burnt flesh and blood immediately poured into her nostrils.
Someone here just died in the explosion?
Quickly observing the surrounding environment, she discovered that there were dots of blood on the walls of the room after the explosion. Although a skylight had been opened in the violent explosion and the rest of the ceiling was blackened by smoke, radial, dried flesh and blood could also be seen.
He died before the gas explosion. This kind of death looked very much like Flesh Bomb of "Rose Bishop"...
Thinking of the words asked by the "giant" just now, Angel guessed that the other party was probably looking for someone who was tracking Lanevus. After killing and silencing him, he was about to leave, but he ran into himself and mistakenly thought that he was Bounty Hunter named "Xio Derecha", so he directly launched an attack.
That's fine, otherwise, I wouldn't even know that Lanevus is in East Borough, right under my nose!
Gritting his teeth, Angel reloaded the revolver, opened Spirit Vision and took a quick glance. No other abnormalities were found, so he left the house and came to the corridor on the third floor.
After the gas leaked, the gas supply was automatically shut off, causing all the gas lights on the entire third floor to go out. At this time, the corridor was dark and it was hard to see, but in the eyes of Angel with Dark Vision, it was as bright as day.
After a little search, she found no trace of Rose Bishop on the third floor. She held her breath and listened carefully to the subtle sounds, and there was a faint sound of metal friction coming from the second floor.
Sure enough, he was on the second floor. Was he planning to ambush me when I came up from the first floor?
He took out a small handful of powder made from fish scales from his pocket, sprinkled it on himself while Angel recited a spell silently, and quickly made his figure disappear into the apartment.
With almost silent steps, she walked around to the stairwell at the other end of the corridor, holding a gun in one hand and a dagger in the other. She was about to go down to the second floor and approach the "Giant" from behind.
The sound of metal scraping stopped.
Then there was the "gurgling" sound of flesh and blood squirming, and the "squeaking" sound of fingers rubbing together.
No, he is lighting the fire of Spirituality?
A terrible thought came into Angel's heart. The next moment, orange flames surged out from the second floor, like a wild beast that swallowed up Angel's invisible body and rushed up to the third floor.
Angel, who appeared under the streetlight on the other side of the street, watched as the flames caused by the ignited gas collapsed half of the room on the third floor, from the remaining windows, from the row of windows on the second floor, and from the apartment door on the first floor, almost covering the entire apartment building.
The flames soared into the sky and formed a ball of fire above the apartment, drifting upward and gradually extinguishing, leaving only a thick layer of smoke.
That "giant" actually used his body as bait to lure me in and then ignited the gas pipes in the entire building?
Passerby, who was injured in the first explosion and had not been able to escape, was now shocked by the second explosion. Those who could still move, even if they were crawling, moved away from the burning apartment, leaving Angel standing alone in the middle of the street.
But soon, a shadow emerged from the burning apartment building, and flesh and blood poured out in front of her, transforming into a body nearly two meters tall. The newly regenerated left arm was still bloody and had no skin covering it. Under the light yellow curly hair was a pair of eyes like a wild beast.
The corners of his drooping mouth twitched as he looked at the apartment shrouded in flames. He was very satisfied with his masterpiece. Then he turned back and was about to turn into a shadow again and leave. But what caught his eye was a strong body and a dagger burning Black Flame in her hand.
"Madness!"
Approaching the "giant" who looked panicked, Angel brandished the Black Flame dagger, and at the same time used the Beyonder Ability that came with Madness Ring, stirring up the fragile spirit of this Rose Bishop.
The brown eyes of the giant who had just prepared Shadow Lurking turned red, like an enraged bullfight. He even forgot about the Beyonder Ability he had just prepared to perform. Instead, he clenched his fists as big as sandbags and faced Angel.
The latter nimbly avoided the unorganized counterattack, swung the dagger, and cut off the opponent's left arm, which had grown less than ten minutes ago, from the root. The second knife went straight to the opponent's throat.
The pain restored some clarity to Rose Bishop's red eyes. He detonated his left arm that fell to the ground without hesitation. Blood rained from the sky and the explosion hit the two of them, but the one who bore the brunt was Angel in front of him.
The corrosive blood enveloped her whole body, making a "sizzling" burning sound, but the blood-stained body suddenly became smaller and thinner, turning into a Paper Figurine riddled with holes.
This is "Paper Figurine Substitute"... but isn't she Demoness Pathway?
A trace of doubt arose in Rose Bishop's heart. He quickly mobilized Spirituality, who was almost out of control in Madness, and summoned back the surrounding flesh and blood, letting them surround him like a whirlwind. He was about to condense into a dark red "Flesh Cloak" that could resist the all-pervasive Black Flame.
"Pfft——"
The sound of a sharp blade piercing flesh reached the giant's ears, followed by severe pain in the back of his head.
"Flesh and blood fried..."
His last dying thoughts were lost in Black Flame rising into the sky.
A few minutes later, two police carriages sped over and stopped in front of the apartment where the flames were almost extinguished but still shrouded in black smoke.
Several policemen jumped out of the carriage and stared at the devastated Dharavi Street. It was not until the groans of the injured on the roadside that they remembered their responsibilities as if they were awakening from a dream, and scattered around, rescuing people and putting out fires.
A police sergeant with two V's on his epaulette frowned and squatted on the ground, looking at two radiating bloodstains that were obviously not caused by fire or explosion. The ground had been corroded by the bloodstains and formed shallow pits. Next to one of the bloodstains, a bloodstain led to the sewer manhole cover next to the street.
Two police officers were called to move the heavy manhole cover. The police sergeant ignored the blood and dust on the ground and lay down on the ground. He looked down. There were only a few soft sounds of water dripping on the water in the dark sewer. He found nothing else.
"Sheriff, here it is."
A police officer handed over a stick that was still burning. Judging from its square shape, it seemed that it was part of a table or chair that had survived.
Taking the torch, the Sheriff threw it into the sewer, watching the bright fire cover the entire passage, then fell into the shallow water and went out with a "pop".
During the short period of time when the firelight illuminated the sewer, he quickly moved his gaze and observed below. Except for the sewage reflecting the firelight, he found nothing unusual.
After thinking for a moment, the police chief gave up the idea of going down the ladder and searching carefully.
Standing up, patting his hands stained with dirt, he directed the police officer beside him to close the manhole cover again, and then walked towards another colleague who also wore a double V on his shoulders.
"Call those people to come. This scene involves supernatural elements at first glance, and we will not be in charge of it from now on."
Pointing to the Frost that had not melted away on the ground and the two pools of blood that had corroded the paving stones, he said with a serious face.
"I don't dare to care..."
He added secretly in his heart.
Watching the torch fall from the sewer exit not far away, Angel suppressed his fear and huddled in the corner of the sewer, trying his best not to make a sound.
These fools! If the sewer had not been redesigned and constructed more than ten years ago, this little flame would have been enough to ignite the biogas below and blow up the entire East Borough!
It wasn't until the manhole cover was closed again and darkness enveloped the area again that she slowly stood up, dragged "Rose Bishop", which was completely soaked in sewage and burned beyond recognition, and left the sewer pipe network of East Borough before the official Beyonder arrived.
