Straw Hat's rickety body suddenly twitched violently, and his bones made a heartbreaking sound of dislocation.
The skin on his neck flowed down like melted wax, revealing the wriggling black meridians under the skin.
The viscous black liquid is not simply covering, but more like countless tiny parasites building armor;
Whenever a droplet falls, it will etch honeycomb-shaped holes in the frozen soil and send up putrid smoke.
The barnacles attached to the turtle shell proliferated wildly, spitting out rancid dark green juice. The seaweed twisted and grew strangely in the cold wind, and densely packed canines were exposed between the opening and closing of the shell.
When the pitch-black carapace began to roll, the permafrost along the way was corroded to create gullies that emitted smoke, emitting the fishy, salty stench of pickled seafood.
It stands to reason that Dick can easily dodge these attacks.
But Xiya's carriage was just a few meters behind him, and he couldn't retreat.
Dick didn't hesitate much, he pushed away Steel Fang's long sword, jumped back slightly, and closed his eyes in the air.
When he opened his eyes again, thick blood mist filled the entire eye socket, the pupils were like burning magma, blood-red ribbons floated from the corners of the eyes, the corners of the mouth curled up to the ear holes, revealing beast-like sharp teeth - Blood of Madness had been activated.
After his feet hit the ground hard, his ankles contracted like springs, and then he held the sword in both hands in an X-shape and rushed into the air faster than he could retreat.
With a whoosh, a line of blood flashed in the air.
When Lame One's huge leg hit the bloody frozen soil, he covered the broken leg and let out a loud wailing sound like a slaughtered pig.
Lame One The cross-section of the broken knee is not a smooth cut. Dark purple blood vessels can be seen wriggling like earthworms between the uneven bone stubbles.
The splattered blood froze into blood crystals in mid-air, clanging against the frozen soil.
He tried to use his residual limbs to support himself on the ground and retreat, but the blood traces dragged out from the fractured area strangely condensed into ice flowers, with tiny air bubbles sealed in each ice core.
Dick ignored Lame One and rushed towards Straw Hat, which turned into a giant black ball.
He knew that if he avoided it, the ultimate target of Straw Hat's impact would be Xiya's carriage.
He quickly landed in front of the giant black ball. He kept swinging the long sword in his hand to slow down the impact of the giant ball. His feet plowed two deep black marks on the frozen soil on the ground, and he left deep footprints on the ground.
Just when the two horses stopped three inches in front of them, a silver whirlwind spun sideways and killed them.
Steel Fang seized the opportunity and launched [Panther Zither Jade] again.
Dick did not dodge, and the purple sword in his left hand danced into a cocoon of light. Every thrust of Steel Fang's four long swords would cause ripple-like ripples on the surface of the cocoon, and the buzzing sound of the sword blades striking each other gradually became sharp and harsh.
The long sword in his right hand drew a crescent arc. When the blade of the sword collided with Straw Hat's pitch-black arm, what burst out was not sparks, but some kind of sticky gelatin.
These colloids expand into a dark green carpet as soon as they hit the ground, devouring the frozen soil crazily.
After a few breaths, the two of them stepped back.
They ignored Lame One, who was lying on the ground, twitching and on the verge of death.
Straw Hat laughed, "You are indeed a strong man. With your ability to transform into a demon, we are indeed no match.
But your weakness seems to be that World-Destroying Witch.
A fair fight is no longer possible and all I can do now is say sorry."
After saying that, he turned into a giant black ball again, and with the roaring sound of "boom", he rolled towards Dick with an indomitable momentum.
Steel Fang, who was on the side, gasped for air and used [Panther Zither Jade] again, with sick and crazy eyes.
Their goal is clear - the carriage behind Dick.
The long sword was waved in the hands of Dick, forming water curtains that were airtight.
But there must be a flaw if he stays for a long time. Even if Blood of Madness is turned on, a large amount of blood is still spattered on his body, and his clothes are torn by Sword Qi, revealing wounds.
But he knew that the balance of victory had tilted towards him.
Because at this time, tiny cracks gradually appeared on the four sword blades in Steel Fang's hand, and blood slowly seeped out from Straw Hat's dark skin.
At this time, Xiya's worried whisper came from the carriage, "How are you?"
"Don't worry."
Dick replied and continued to resist the attack. When all four long swords of Steel Fang were shattered, Dick knew that the time had come for him to fight back.
The purple sword in his left hand was thrown out quickly. The moment the purple sword was released, a ring of air waves exploded from the end of the sword's hilt, and the blade turned red due to high-speed friction.
Steel Fang's pupils reflected the strange purple lightning. First, red lines as thin as hair appeared on his neck, and then his skin cracked like a dry river bed.
When the head flew up, the flesh and blood at the broken neck crystallized strangely, and shattered into scarlet powder in the cold wind.
Immediately afterwards, Dick thrust his right sword forward. Straw Hat was so frightened that he quickly retracted his head and used his turtle shell to block it.
At this moment, Dick's left arm suddenly became huge, and he punched out with a powerful punch.
With a "bang", Straw Hat's turtle shell made an overwhelming sound, and large pieces of blood burst out. At the same time, the entire turtle shell instantly turned into fragments and flew everywhere.
This blow caused Straw Hat to roll continuously for 5 meters before stopping.
He was covered in thick green and pitch black blood, looked up at the "devil" walking towards him, and quickly begged for mercy, "Let's order..."
Before he could finish speaking, his head, which retained an expression of fear and flattery, was already flying high.
While spinning, his consciousness slowly fell completely into darkness.
After the battle subsided, in the remaining sword-marked ravines on the tundra, dark green juice and dark red ice crystals intertwined to form a strange totem.
The north wind swept over the broken tortoise shell fragments, emitting an ethereal sob, like the last elegy of the undead.
Dick gasped for air, and the effect of Blood of Madness was just over.
He looked miserable, but in fact he was not injured. His injuries were fully recovered under the effect of super Self-Healing Ability. It just consumed a lot of physical strength and energy, which Super Self-Healing could not recover.
He pulled off his tattered coat, then took out one from the space hangings and put it on. Only then did he notice several prompts coming from the panel:
Kill the demonized human 'Straw Hat' and obtain Energy Points X80.
Kill the demonized human 'Steel Fang' and obtain Energy Points X80.
Kill the demonized human 'Lame One' and obtain Energy Points X80.
The current total is Energy Points X240.
He thought for a moment, but did not use the 240 points Energy Points, but returned to the carriage, "Xiya, are you okay?"
Xiya The knuckles of the fingers sticking out of the car window turned white, and the nails left shallow scratches on the wooden window frame.
When she saw the bloody streaks at the corners of Dick's eyes, her eyelashes trembled uncontrollably, but she still forced herself to raise a soothing smile, "Are you okay?"
"It's okay, we have to leave right away."
"Okay."
The carriage set off again, and Dick remained in the Witcher Senses state.
At this moment, he couldn't care less about consuming too much energy, because he knew that the closer he got to Mist Swamp, the more mercenaries would come after hearing the news.
