Front, back, left, right.
Including the "Gazer" who escaped here, there are five pale figures surrounding Angel and Klein. Some of them are wearing white robes like the first ones, and some are naked. Their bodies are similar to humans, but their bodies are pale, their skin is wrinkled, and their details are difficult to distinguish.
What was exactly the same was that the tentacles with eyes on their heads, together with the pair of eyeballs on their faces, focused the sight of Slowing, fatigue and disease on the two of them.
"..."
The "Gazer" that led them into the trap made a cry of unknown meaning, and a trace of pride could be seen on its face that was somewhat similar to that of humans.
The prey has become weak from Slowing and fatigue. Even if they use "Flaming Jump" or "Mirror Substitution" to avoid gaze, they will be overtaken by hunters far exceeding their numbers in an instant, until they die from various negative effects.
Just one more minute, no, maybe thirty seconds is enough...
A strong wind suddenly blew in the narrow valley, and the bushes and branches rustled.
The five "Gazer" all raised their heads and looked at the sky, where Distortion was a space where only the moonlight originally existed. In the void, a figure wearing a complicated long skirt with nothing above her neck slowly emerged.
The four blond heads she held in her hand all opened their scarlet eyes and looked at the four "Gazer" who were lying in ambush here and were unharmed.
Without the slightest hesitation, the figures of these ambushers with keen spiritual senses became illusory. They got into Spirit World almost in no particular order and left the island at the fastest speed in their lives.
This suddenly relieved the pressure on Angel and Klein, who were receiving the attention of more than twenty eyeballs respectively, and they were able to move freely.
The only remaining figure in white, who had consumed several eyes and had half of its tentacles hit the ground and was severely injured, found that all six heads and twelve eyes present were looking at him, and he actually felt a stiff and cold touch that only his prey could feel before.
This is not a "Slowing" and "weak" effect, but a chill from the inside.
Its body also became insubstantial, and it drilled down on the spot, leaving reality with the help of the ground, and slipped into the Spirit World space where the enemy could not track it. It wanted to follow the companions who abandoned it and quickly leave this land of right and wrong.
But the next second, a black shadow pushed it backwards to the ground. Ms. Wensa, which was more than half a meter long and completely black, used its four claws to press it upside down on the chest of "Gazer" and pushed it into the air.
Seizing the opportunity, Angel jumped up with the help of silk thread, and Bone Blade, which had been charged for a long time with his left hand, stabbed out like lightning, pointing directly at the opponent's fragile neck.
"Mirror for..."
"Gazer" As soon as this thought flashed through his mind, he found that all his eyes that could be used as a substitute were covered with a layer of black mist.
Those "substitutes" that are derived from one's own flesh and blood and are almost uninterrupted, are not their own at this moment!
On the ground below, Black Cat Wensa's blue eyes seemed to be staring at "Gazer", interfering with the opponent's stand-in ability, but his eyes actually crossed the doomed prey and looked at Reinette Tinekerr in the air.
Looking at each other with four pairs of scarlet eyes, the two messengers seemed to make a "hum" sound, then disappeared one after another and left Physical World.
Between their figures, the body of "Gazer" with its head separated and blood spattered was slowly falling.
"Why did you cut the neck? Look, the blood is almost gone."
Watching Angel hurriedly take out the glass bottle and take the blood of "Gazer" that was pale and like milk, Klein chuckled at the side and commented sharply on her the End's attack method.
Carefully watching the liquid level rise until it reached 150 ml, Angel took another 50 ml before stopping. While tightening the cork, using Frost's ability to seal the precious Potion material, he looked at Klein with a warning gaze.
"I, I will sacrifice 'Creeping Hunger' to Mr. Fool..."
Feeling a sense of crisis comparable to that of the previous battle, Klein shook off the leather gloves on his hands, indicating that he would deal with this Mystical Item as planned, which had shocking negative effects.
"Don't go too far."
Pouting his lips, Angel let go of Klein who was making sarcastic remarks, took out the ceremonial dagger, and began to dissect the pair of eyes on "Gazer"'s face.
Obviously, the "eyes of Gazer" required for the Potion formula refer to the real eyes at this location, not the weird eyeballs on the tentacles.
Otherwise, wouldn't the eyeball on one "Gazer" light tentacle be able to promote more than five "Affliction" Demoness?
From Law of Conservation of Beyonder Characteristics, it is unlikely.
Sure enough, in her Spirit Vision, bursts of milky white light spots were floating on the body with its head separated, focusing on the eyes of the face.
We have to get the Potion materials quickly and leave here as soon as possible... Angel thought.
Now she is under the weakening effect of "Knight Bracelet", and Klein has lost the right to use "Creeping Hunger", which guarantees the greatest combat power. This is when the two of them are at their weakest.
Fortunately, Ms. Ms. Wensa and Ms. Reinette have not gone far. The escaped "Gazer" should not dare to come back to collect the bodies of his companions. There are no other Beyonder Creatures on this desert island, so it is still safe...
Looking worriedly at the direction Klein was going away, Angel gathered his thoughts, dropped the dagger, and began to separate Beyonder Ingredients.
After walking dozens of meters, until Angel's crouching figure disappeared among the trees, Klein used Saint Night Powder to arrange Wall of Spirituality, and used a simple Sacrifice Ritual to send Creeping Hunger, which had been unsealed and used and had to swallow a living person to eliminate hunger, to Grey Fog Space.
After walking four steps backward, he came to Gray Fog. Klein hurriedly accepted his sacrifice and threw Mystical Item, who had been lying quietly since entering here without any sense of hunger, into the pile of debris behind him. Then without any delay, he returned directly to Physical World.
Opening his eyes, he looked around and found that there was no difference from before he "left" one minute, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
This move is very dangerous. If Angel had been close to here just now, you would have found him standing there with a stiff body, just like all the members summoned by "Fool" to go to Tarot Club.
At least the vest has to be taken off to the "world" level. If the explanation is not good, I am afraid that the identity of "Fool" will also be in danger. Fortunately, Angel seems to trust me very much, but this makes me feel even more guilty... He cursed, cleaned up the scene, and walked back to the place where "Gazer" died.
Angel happened to take off a pair of eyeballs from his head at this time. The eyeballs, which had gathered all the extraordinary power, emitted a breathtaking pale light. Even Crimson Moon above his head could not absorb its color.
Just looking at the paleness, Klein felt that his limbs had become stiff and weak just like when he was stared at by these Beyonder Creature before.
This is the Potion material of Sequence 4, the ladder leading to High Sequence... He sighed, waiting for Angel to carefully put his eyeballs away, and then said:
"Shall we return 'Blue Avenger' now?"
He deliberately did not mention what to do with the remaining body of "Gazer" at his feet. Let's not talk about how many Spirituality are left in these remaining parts. If Angel thinks it can be sold for a lot of money and wants to sacrifice it to Fool on the spot, how should he "accept the goods" in front of her?
Could it be that Mr. Fool just received "Creeping Hunger" and immediately rejected her sacrifice?
"Let's go. This operation went very smoothly. We should be able to set sail and leave this island before midnight."
Angel nodded, also ignoring the corpse of "Gazer" at his feet.
She didn't think about collecting more Beyonder Ingredients, but after receiving 200 ml of blood, the headless corpse quickly withered, the skin became dry, and the wounds no longer oozed milk-like blood. This showed that the Spirituality inside the corpse was limited. After obtaining a sufficient amount of Potion, it was difficult to obtain more weight.
Even so, she still reluctantly glanced at the body before leaving.
"Fortunately, through Gold Pound, we entrusted two messengers to help us deal with these Spirit World Creature. Otherwise, relying on us alone, let alone killing one to obtain materials, it would be difficult to escape."
Seeing that Angel had the urge to go back and sacrifice the corpse, Klein quickly found a topic to attract her attention back.
"But if Ms. Ms. Wensa and Ms. Reinette were not lurking in the dark, we would not have tried to pursue in depth. That Gazer was leading us into a trap at first glance, and the performance was too clumsy..."
With a smile on his face and his palms tightly holding the Potion material worth ten thousand pounds, Angel was in a very happy mood.
This was a tactic they had set before setting foot on the island. They made full use of the ability of the messenger to travel freely between Spirit World and the character of "Gazer" who lived in groups but did not care about the life and death of his companions. They carried out a counter-ambush based on the opponent's ambush and successfully obtained the required materials.
Paying 2,000 pounds for this... no, 3,500 pounds is still worth it!
What was going on with the gunpowder-filled looks between the two messenger ladies before they left?
With a head full of doubts, the two left the valley and returned to the abandoned camp at the entrance.
After passing through here and leaving the not-so-dense jungle, you can use the flame to send out a signal on the beach, summoning the "Hanged Man" Alger on the "Blue Avenger" docked offshore to respond, and then leave this sea area and return to Bayam.
But at this time, the bonfire in the camp, which had long been unused and had not been lit for many years, was burning, emitting warm firelight.
A woman wearing a light yellow dress with long black hair draped softly behind her was staring blankly at the bonfire. When she heard the footsteps of the two people, she slowly turned around, with inexplicable emotions in her golden eyes.
"You are finally back."
She spoke, her voice not loud, but it penetrated into their hearts without any hindrance.
