The battle continued

Kronos aimed the arrow directly at the Small Hole, waiting for Jason to appear.

Jason was a bit slower, but he arrived in less than two minutes, and the Desire Incarnation began to slowly squeeze out from the Small Hole.

Seeing this, Kronos tensed his arms, ready to fire the arrow at any moment.

In longbow form, each arrow can deliver a Fatal Attack blow, but if it hits a weak point, it can even kill instantly. Therefore, Kronos did not act so early, but waited for a suitable opportunity.

Slowly, Jason squeezed himself out of the Small Hole and stood on the Small Hole space in front of it.

Without further hesitation, Kronos estimated the position of Jason's eye and released the arrow.

The Blood Red arrow pierced Jason's head in an instant, the immense impact sending Jason flying backward at an angle.

That wasn't all. After piercing Jason's head, the arrow continued its flight along the same path and then embedded itself in the wall diagonally behind Jason.

Because Jason was not far from the wall behind him, and the arrow was quite long, the tail of the arrow had not completely left Jason's head after it hit the wall, and Jason was thus connected to the wall.

Although the occasion was quite inappropriate, Kronos couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Of course, even his laughter didn't slow down his movements; he immediately activated the skills on all three Scroll.

Several golden beams of light fell on Jason, burning him until he roared in pain.

Pinned to the wall, Jason's movements were severely restricted. With no other option, he covered his head with both hands and forcefully pulled his head off the arrow.

This immense damage immediately pulled Jason out of his state of being the Desire Incarnation.

Kronos was overjoyed and immediately swung his sword down at Jason.

Jason had already taken too many attacks. He knew he couldn't afford to get hit again, or he would be done for. So he grabbed the corner of the Table next to him, flipped it up hard, and threw it at Kronos.

Kronos reacted quickly, slashing his sword to the side and hacking at the Table.

The Bright Light War Blade was, after all, Beyonder Item, and its sharpness was undeniable; it sliced Table in two with a single stroke.

Just as he was about to strike Jason again, Jason was no longer in the same spot. Instead, he rolled to the side and landed at the Basement entrance, ready to open the door and escape.

Kronos was determined not to let him succeed, because he had seen with his Eye of Time that the Basement Gate was truly sturdy. If Jason managed to lock it from the outside, even if they used a longbow to blast it, it would take several minutes, enough time for Jason to disappear.

So Kronos immediately used the Hand Crossbow Mode of the Deadly Crossbow and fired a shot.

The loud whooshing sound behind him gave Jason time to prepare, and he dodged to the right, avoiding the crossbow bolt.

Such a large movement naturally left him no time to Door Opening, and taking advantage of this opportunity, Kronos's War Blade slashed down once again.

"Slow down!" A strange word came out of Jason's mouth.

Kronos froze instantly, his hand holding the War Blade even stopping.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Jason kicked Kronos in the chest, sending him flying.

The seriously injured Jason did not continue his attack, but instead took the opportunity to turn around and Door Opening.

Having learned his lesson, Kronos remembered what had just happened—it was the Language of Foulness of Devil.

They can speak Devil Language words that originate from the Abyss and are full of filth and Corruption, and thus unleash their corresponding abilities.

No wonder Kronos didn't hear what they were saying; only a few Devil Families on the continent probably understand the Devil Language.

When Kronos got up from the floor, Jason had already opened the Basement door and was about to walk out.

Left with no other choice, Kronos had to pull out the Disease Triangular Dagger.

This Triangular Bayonet is arguably the most powerful Beyonder Item in Kronos's possession, even surpassing the Deadly Crossbow lethality.

The Deadly Crossbow had just hit Jason, but it hadn't killed Jason instantly. However, with this Triangular Bayonet, even a mere scratch would have been fatal.

However, Kronos disliked using it; the negative effects were too frightening, and it was best not to use it unless absolutely necessary.

After Kronos pulled out the Disease Triangular Dagger, he charged at Jason.

Wielding his Triangular Bayonet, Kronos launched an attack, instantly activating his Extreme Speed ability, increasing his speed by fifty percent.

After rushing forward a few steps, the distance between Kronos and Jason had reached within three meters.

Kronos also activated the Silk Entanglement ability of the Disease Triangular Dagger.

Jason was already pushing the door open, but Kronos certainly couldn't let him close it, so he simply wrapped him up with Silk Threads to slow Jason down.

Without the power of the Triangular Bayonet, Kronos might really have been locked up in the Basement.

However, with the speed boost and the slowing effect of the Silk, Kronos performed a forward roll and burst out of the Basement.

As he rushed out, he swung his hand back, leaving a wound on Jason's calf.

The wound wasn't very deep, but it still allowed the disease's power to enter Jason's body.

After landing a successful blow, Kronos was quick to follow up with a second strike.

However, Jason had already broken free from the control of the Silk Entanglement, and his body swelled up as he once again activated his Devil Transformation.

The activation process did indeed slow Jason's movements, which is why Kronos stabbed him in the back.

However, even during the Devil Transformation process, the defense had already increased, so the Disease Triangular Dagger failed to penetrate the defense.

This is one of the drawbacks of this Triangular Bayonet: it has the advantage of speed, but not sharpness. In terms of sharpness, it is only equivalent to an ordinary sharp Dagger.

When facing skills that enhance defense, this problem arises: if you can't break through the defense, what's the point?

Seeing that the Triangular Bayonet had failed to break through his defenses, Kronos immediately put Triangular Bayonet back into his bag. With this, time was of the essence; not a second could be wasted.

After retracting his Triangular Bayonet, Kronos quickly retreated to create distance between himself and Jason. After all, Jason was still very powerful after his Devil Transformation, and if it were a close-quarters fight, Kronos would definitely be the one getting hammered.

Seeing Kronos retreat, Jason wasn't about to let him get away with it. He charged at Kronos and threw a punch.

With the aid of Wings, Jason's speed was astonishing, so his fist, the size of a casserole dish, reached Kronos in the blink of an eye.

Kronos had no choice but to hold his War Blade horizontally in front of him, preparing to parry.

Even if that heavy punch hadn't landed on him, the impact would have been unbearable for most people.

Kronos crashed into the wall behind him and spat out a mouthful of blood.

Although he was injured, it wasn't too much for Kronos to bear, because the power of the Vampire’s Heart was constantly active, continuously healing Kronos body.

Having been beaten to this extent, Jason no longer wanted to run away. He had been beaten so badly, and he had to find a way to get revenge; he couldn't stay on the defensive forever.

Seeing Jason approaching, Kronos's lips curled up slightly. It was good that he was really going to fight. Kronos was afraid that Jason would still be thinking about how to run away while they were fighting, which would be very difficult to stop.

Since he was willing to fight to the death, Kronos was no longer afraid.

Jason suddenly shook his arms, and more than a dozen Sulfur Fireball flew towards Kronos.

Seeing the power of these fireballs, Kronos naturally couldn't let them hit him, so Kronos moved his left hand and activated the Chaos Skill on his Bracer.

Under this intense attack, Kronos remained motionless, for he had great faith in the power of chaos.

Sure enough, more than a dozen Sulfur Fireball exploded around Kronos, but none of them hit Kronos.

The Sulfur Fireball explosion kicked up a considerable amount of smoke and dust, so Jason couldn't immediately determine whether his fireball had hit Kronos.

But it was a different story for Kronos in the smoke and dust. He took the opportunity to draw his Deadly Crossbow in longbow form once again, and using what he saw with his Eyes of Mystery Prying, he aimed the arrow at the Devil Transformation Jason.

Because there wasn't much time, Kronos could only aim hastily and then fire, so the target wasn't a weak point like the head, but rather the Torso.

The arrow struck Jason precisely in the abdomen, piercing him through completely.

It's a real shame. Jason is currently in a Devil Transformation state, which greatly increases his resilience. Otherwise, with that extra arrow, he would definitely have been killed instantly.

Even with the added power of Devil Transformation, Jason wasn't in good shape. His abdominal wound was bleeding profusely, his breathing was rapid, and he felt like he was about to die at any moment.

Without further ado, Kronos pulled out Elf Charm.

This Charm used to be Kronos's trump card, but as Kronos opponents became Sequence 5 Beyonder, its offensive power began to falter.

Therefore, Kronos didn't immediately use him to chop Jason; it would be a pity if he didn't cause any damage.

However, given Jason's current condition, while this Lightning strike might not be enough to kill him outright, it would certainly wear him down further.

Kronos stopped approaching Jason and instead planned to slowly whittle him down from a distance using Charm and Scroll.
