In front of the gate of the abandoned factory, the Watcher Scarecrow sits on an iron chair.
Through the spiritual imprint left at a distance, it could sense that the puppet army it had sent out had achieved considerable success.
Those female non-human bosses are being packaged up and sent back in droves.
"For the sake of the divine..."
It murmured softly, preparing to plan the ranking of its harem.
But just then, it suddenly frowned.
It sensed that the feedback from a certain direction was somewhat strange.
One of his puppets didn't seem to be escorting prey, but rather...
Caught by prey?
Moreover, it's approaching the factory at a certain speed.
It's not even under their own control.
"What's going on..."
"When!"
Just as Er was wondering what was going on, a whooshing sound suddenly came from the air!
Three figures, positioned in a pincer formation, suddenly launched their attack from the shadows!
Faced with this sudden attack, the Watcher Scarecrow seemed to handle it with ease.
He casually made a grasping motion, and a longsword formed from straw appeared in his hand.
The sword flashed and swirled, like a grandmaster of swordsmanship, unleashing two strikes in quick succession.
Clang! Clang!
Amidst the clash, the goblin warrior wielding the broken sword and Zhang Lingqi, holding Sharp Blade, were both forced back.
"I thought it was someone else, but it's just you, you runaway bug."
"What, you dare to come back?"
The Watcher Scarecrow held a sword in one hand, its empty gaze sweeping over Zhang Lingqi.
Then the blame fell on Gexi and Abu.
"And you two pieces of trash who appeared out of nowhere, daring to chase after me..."
"That's just asking for death."
Gexi retorted sarcastically, "Heh, you're the one who's asking for death."
"A Pirated Copy who steals and copies others' abilities, dressed in weeds, thinks he's a god?"
"Hehe..."
The Watcher Scarecrow was not angered; instead, it chuckled softly.
"I really don't know where you ants get the confidence to challenge me."
"It seems..."
"It's because I've always been too kind that you've gotten the wrong impression that I'm easy to deal with."
After deciding to establish a church for the Dragon God, he never killed anyone again.
"Of course... it just means not killing indiscriminately, not that we won't kill at all!"
That's all!
"Boom!"
Black Flame erupted from its palm, igniting the straw sword in its hand!
The three men's expressions changed drastically at the same time; they knew this guy was about to get serious!
Without the slightest hesitation, the three of them immediately launched a full-force attack in perfect unison!
Die!
Zhang Lingqi activated the [Executioner] Intangibility state.
He descended from the sky, wielding a sickle, aiming straight for the Scarecrow's head!
Below, Gexi clasped his hands together.
"In my Order, weapons of killing are not permitted!"
The Watcher Scarecrow suddenly felt its hands empty.
The longsword, engulfed in Black Flame, strangely slipped from my grasp and fell to the ground.
At the same time, the goblin hero, wielding a broken sword, charged towards the Scarecrow from the front!
Faced with this deadly pincer attack that nearly sealed off all escape routes, the Watcher Scarecrow simply stood still.
"Haven't you heard that there's always a way out..."
"If I want to walk, the path is right beneath my feet!"
"Buzz!"
Just as Zhang Lingqi and the goblin hero's attack was about to hit its body!
A wormhole portal opened beneath the Watcher Scarecrow's feet!
It plunged downwards and disappeared without a trace!
Their attacks missed, and the impact created a shockwave in mid-air.
"What happened? Did it use the BOSS's portal to escape back to the Barbaric Realm?"
Gexi looked around in bewilderment.
"No! Get out of the way!"
Zhang Lingqi retorted sharply.
That's not a portal to the boundary!
"That's the Supernatural Ability [Spatial Blink] of the Black Shark Squad from the Eagle Country, the one codenamed Phantom!"
As someone who knew about the Scarecrow Trial, Zhang Lingqi finally realized the seriousness of the situation.
This guy not only copied the Dragon God's abilities!
They even completely stripped away all the abilities of the three Tiger Squad that participated in the trial!
However, Zhang Lingqi's reminder was still half a second too late.
Gexi felt a chill run down the back of her neck.
He belatedly turned his head.
Suddenly, a straw ghost hand burning with Black Flame appeared out of the void and grabbed at his neck!
"Gexi!"
The nearest goblin hero shoved Gexi away!
"Sizzle!"
The hand burning with Black Flame was imprinted on his chest!
"Aaaaaah!!!"
Abu collapsed to the ground on the spot, letting out a wail!
The Black Flame were eroding his life force and energy.
In less than three seconds, the strongest warrior of the goblin tribe was reduced to ashes.
Only the holy sword remained, lying on the ground.
"So weak it's disgusting..."
The Watcher Scarecrow emerged from the void, not even glancing at the ashes on the ground.
"It would take at least a minute for Black Flame to burn an A-Class Supernatural Ability to death."
"This guy turned to ashes in seconds..."
"I doubt they've even reached the threshold of B-level."
It crossed its arms and stared at Zhang Lingqi was suspended in mid-air, and Gexi, who was sitting on the ground.
"Next, it's your turn."
Zhang Lingqi floated in mid-air.
He's now genuinely regretting coming back to tackle this tough challenge.
"Too hard..."
"This guy is a complete Frankenstein's monster."
Zhang Lingqi was frantically calculating in his mind.
[Black Flame], [Sword Emperor], [Spatial Blink]...
This guy has probably already included members of those three squads from back then, such as [Steel Body]...
[Kinetic Absorption]...
They copied over a dozen Supernatural Ability, including the [Explosive Mark]!
In addition, there's its [Red Moon] domain...
This is hardly top-grade anymore.
He's absolutely a genuine Demigod!
However, time no longer allowed him to continue his analysis.
"You think that just because you're hiding in that Intangibility state, I can't do anything to you?"
The Watcher Scarecrow sneered and opened its mouth.
"By order of the Emperor, kneel down!"
Boom!
Word Spirit Sequence 039 [Imperial Edict]!
The power from the White Eagle Country [God Parker]!
The power of the rules descended like an overwhelming force!
"You even copied this?!"
Zhang Lingqi's pupils shrank sharply. Despite his best efforts to hold on, he was still forced to the ground from mid-air!
"Thump!"
He knelt on one knee, panting, while the [Executioner] was forcibly removed, revealing his true form!
On the other side, Gexi was in an even worse state, forced to kneel on both knees and unable to move.
"Now..."
The Watcher Scarecrow looked with satisfaction at the two ants kneeling before him, then picked up the Black Flame Longsword again.
"Let you pay with your lives to see what..."
"How dare you covet the treasure I offered to the gods! What will become of you then!"
It raised the Black Flame Sword high, aimed it at Zhang Lingqi's neck, and was about to cleave it down!
However, it was precisely in this desperate situation that...
Forced to kneel on the ground, Gexi Xi...
He gave a wry smile.
"Pfft!"
The next second, a Sharp Blade sound of a blade piercing through the grass suddenly rang out!
A blunt sword tip pierced through the Watcher Scarecrow's chest.
It stirred up a flurry of blood-stained straw!
"How... is this possible?"
The Watcher Scarecrow's longsword froze in mid-air, and it slumped down, head bowed in a daze.
He looked at the broken sword embedded in his chest.
It turned its head and looked behind it.
That goblin hero who was just burned to ashes by the Black Flame...
He was standing there completely unharmed, his hands gripping the sword hilt!
"Why... are you still alive?"
The goblin hero didn't answer it, but simply turned his head and looked at Gexi.
The Watcher Scarecrow finally understood!
It recalled the scene of being forcibly disarmed just now...
It's the man in sunglasses' ability!
"In my Order, destruction and slaughter are not permitted."
Gexi shook his neck, which had become stiff from being pressed down, and stood up with a cold laugh.
"Of course, this wonderful Order only applies to my teammates."
"As for a monster like you, you don't deserve it."
As he spoke, Gexi flicked his finger, and a stream of light landed on Zhang Lingqi.
The Suppression of the [Imperial Edict] was broken.
Zhang Lingqi rubbed his shoulders and stood up, somewhat puzzled by Gexi's almost superhuman resurrection ability.
But now is clearly not the time to delve into it.
Before this, they had already coordinated their plans, Gexi had assured them that they could act freely and not be afraid of dying.
This is why Zhang Lingqi didn't even flinch when Abu was burned to ashes.
However, Zhang Lingqi still dared not die casually.
After all, what if his own [Death Regression] mechanism clashed with Gexi's [Order Resurrection]?
Who knows what logical conflict might arise that would cause it to freeze completely.
"Drink it!"
The goblin hero roared in battle!
However, because the broken sword was so blunt, only the tip barely pierced the Scarecrow's chest.
He gritted his teeth and simply used the longsword as a fork.
With a powerful swing of his arms, he lifted the Watcher Scarecrow from the ground into the air!
"Catch!"
He tossed the Scarecrow towards Zhang Lingqi like a sack of potatoes!
"Well done!"
A cold glint flashed in Zhang Lingqi's eyes, and the black scythe in his hand drew a full moon in mid-air!
"Death Declaration!"
"Sizzle!"
A black blade of light flashed past.
The Watcher Scarecrow's head separated from its body and rolled onto the ground with a thud!
His body and head were separated.
But as long as there is a single straw in this world, the Watcher Scarecrow will never Undying!
The straw head on the ground is trying to connect through consciousness.
They shifted their origins to the straw not far away.
But the next second, it was horrified to discover that its soul was nailed to its head by some kind of chain!
"It's useless, don't waste your energy."
Zhang Lingqi walked up to the head and tapped its forehead with the handle of his sickle.
"Having received my Death Declaration, your soul will be imprisoned within this wreckage for a short period of time."
"Right now, you're just a talking ball."
Zhang Lingqi knew very well that the puppet army that this guy had scattered yesterday was rushing back at full speed.
If they wait until reinforcements arrive or the territory is fully expanded, all three of them will surely die!
Therefore, we must act swiftly and decisively!
"Since we can't kill you, let's each take a step back."
Zhang Lingqi coldly stated his condition. "Hand over one of the bosses you captured, and we want to leave this place."
Gexi and the Goblin Warrior also joined in, adding sharply.
"Also, hand over the Zandaya Elf Clan unharmed!"
Otherwise, don't blame us for being impolite!
"Impossible!!!"
Even with only a head remaining, the Watcher Scarecrow still roars obstinately.
"Don't even think about it! They are all supreme treasures that I carefully selected to offer to the gods!"
"You're dreaming if you think you can steal the master's tribute from me!"
It stared at the three of them, and mocked them with a sense of resignation.
"Do whatever you want!"
"Once my puppet army arrives, I will extract your souls and roast them in Black Flame for ten thousand years!"
"Oh, I didn't realize you were such a tough nut to crack?"
Gexi grinned, pushed up his sunglasses, and squatted down.
"You're not afraid of death, huh? Fine."
"My buddy's been a bit feverish lately, his urine is yellow."
You know, if I took off my pants right now and peed on your rotten face...
"Go scoop some more 'Oli Ge' from the septic tank and stuff it into your mouth..."
"Once you've soaked up all the juice, we'll turn you into a mop for the goblin tribe's Public Restroom."
Gexi patted the Scarecrow's cheek, and the devil whispered.
"Don't worry, you worship your god so much, I believe you'll be able to see him even if you reek of a septic tank."
"He'll definitely be moved and accept you, right?"
"..."
These words were spoken.
Let alone a germaphobic Watcher Scarecrow.
Even the goblin hero and Zhang Lingqi nearby couldn't help but take a half step back.
"That... Gexi."
Abu swallowed hard and muttered to himself, "Using this kind of trick... isn't it a bit too twisted?"
"I feel like the three of us are the villains now."
Zhang Lingqi nodded in deep agreement, expressing his strong approval.
Just as the trial was about to reach its conclusion...
A voice suddenly came from the high wall of the ruins, breaking the atmosphere among the group.
"That sounds like a good idea."
"How about... we add it to your game?"
The Watcher Scarecrow and the trio both felt a chill and turned to look at the source of the sound.
On the high, broken wall, a group of two men and one woman had appeared out of nowhere!
The man on the left is wearing a red official robe, with his hands tucked into his sleeves.
The man on the right was dressed in a suit and had a smile on his face.
The woman standing in the middle wore a long purple robe and had two dragon horns.
But what truly took everyone's breath away was...
This does not refer to the identities of these three people.
Instead, it was something that the purple-robed dragon girl was holding in her hand.
That was a Scarecrow.
A... that has already been Disassembly
Watcher Scarecrow Golem!
