For supernatural creatures like the Six-Winged Gargoyle, which have a sturdy body and are not very afraid of Lightning Strike, Alger knew he had no good way to deal with them except for the " Raging Blow " from the " Sailor " pathway.
Of course, the "singing" that resonates directly with the opponent's auditory organs and Mental Body is definitely the most effective. If they were to encounter it elsewhere, Alger would definitely take advantage of the Six-Winged Gargoyle's tall, heavy, and not agile characteristics, circling around it, "singing" to affect it while attacking the same part with sharp Wind Blade, relying on the accumulation of damage and the stacking of time to slowly wear down the enemy.
However, he was currently in the burial chamber, where the environment was restricted. If he avoided facing it head-on, the Six-Winged Gargoyle would inevitably turn to Gehrman Sparrow and attack him with its seven- or eight-meter-long stone halberd, preventing the mad adventurer from seizing the opportunity to deal with the three dead. Most importantly, Alger suspected that the effect of his "song" on Gehrman Sparrow might be greater than that on the Six-Winged Gargoyle.
Bang!
The stone halberd slammed heavily onto the ground, creating an exaggerated crater that shook the entire burial chamber as if an earthquake had struck. Alger did not try to block it head-on; instead, he veered to the right amidst the raging wind, leaping up and nimbly dodging the Six-Winged Gargoyle's attack, heading straight for the Monster's head.
Just then, he saw those greyish-white eyes burning with firelight.
Alger's thoughts suddenly went blank, and his body instantly stiffened, as if he had been petrified again, but no grayish-white color appeared and spread on his skin.
Driven by inertia, he continued to rise, but before he could swing his short blade, he crashed straight into the head of the Six-Winged Gargoyle, flying backward with a thud, his whole body aching.
His eyes reflected the heavy, gray halberd again, but his mind was too sluggish to make any effective response.
Suddenly, a hand grabbed his shoulder and pulled him sharply to the side.
Bang!
Stones flew, sparks flew, and the heavy halberd of the Six-Winged Gargoyle smashed a huge crater into the ground.
Alger's body shuddered, his vision cleared, and his thoughts quickly returned to normal.
It was as if he had finally woken up from a nightmare he could not resist and regained control of his body.
Only then did he realize that Gehrman Sparrow had appeared beside him at some point, and in the corner where the three dead men had been, the electric currents still flickered and crackled.
"Don't make eye contact with it, attack its chest," Klein said succinctly to his companion as he pulled Alger along, dodging the stone halberds.
Having personally experienced and witnessed many battles, Alger understood what Gehrman Sparrow. He immediately broke away from the help and nimbly circled around to the side of the Six-Winged Gargoyle.
Thump! Thump! Thump!
He strode towards the Six-Winged Gargoyle, and only when the stone halberd swung horizontally did he suddenly leap high into the air, propelled by the gust of wind, to avoid the attack.
Ugh!
Another hurricane propelled Alger toward the chest of the Six-Winged Gargoyle.
During this process, he closed his eyes, pulled his right arm back, and caused the corresponding muscles to swell up one by one.
Then, based on his " Navigator's " judgment of distance, he swung his right fist, which was gripping a short blade.
Whistling Wind Blade and crackling lightning erupted simultaneously as his fist shot forward.
Bang!
Alger's right fist struck the Six-Winged Gargoyle's chest with tremendous force, creating an explosive effect. The gray stone there was first covered with fine cracks, with silvery lightning crackling around it, before it shattered and became a crater!
With a snap, his short blade exploded, scattering into fragments that flew in all directions.
The powerful rebound sent Alger flying backward. In mid-air, he caught a glimpse out of the corner of his eye that Gehrman Sparrow, had somehow moved to the front and was drawing his hammer.
Immediately afterwards, the aloof adventurer abruptly raised his hand, aiming the dark, deep muzzle of his gun at the Six-Winged Gargoyle.
Bang!
In the enormous echo, a bullet pierced the crater in the Six-Winged Gargoyle's chest and went inside.
A thunderous sound erupted, and the grayish-white stone Monster shook violently a few times, the flames burning in its eyes quickly extinguishing.
After a brief pause, it collapsed forward like a mountain, creating an exaggerated sound and an earthquake-like shaking.
The Death Knell tolls, a single, fatal blow!
At that moment, Alger, with the help of the wind, managed to maintain his balance and stand firmly.
Klein didn't speak to him or look for the spoils. He simply turned around and faced the scorched ground where Azik Copper Whistle lay quietly.
Slippery tentacles covered in "fish scales" twitched, and a dead man who had lost half of his body stood up, with wisps of electricity still running through his skin.
It was that majestic, wild, and tyrannical dead man, who had originally worn a tattered brown jacket and a pirate captain's hat, but now he was missing his left arm, his right leg, and half a head, and his body was covered with charred and melted marks.
Even so, it still did not rest, and tried to merge with the surrounding flesh and blood to enter a more powerful state.
You should know that Klein just used the " Lightning Storm " Record from the " Sea God Scepter ". Even if it was weakened due to the Record, it was still an absolutely genuine Demigod- level extraordinary ability. You can see its power from the fact that the other two dead did not even utter a sound before returning to complete calm!
There's something wrong with this awakened dead... Klein's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately had the " Wraith " Senor leap onto the smooth surface of the Azik Copper Whistle, and then try to reflect it onto the "fish scales" of the dead man's slippery tentacles.
Just then, through the Marionette, Klein sensed a violent, high-level repulsive force, and the " Wraith " was unable to possess him!
Senor was even bounced back, his form becoming uncontrollably visible.
Seeing this, Alger didn't ask why. He raised his hands and created a swirling whirlwind around the dead body, trying to restrain its movements. However, the wind didn't sweep inward. It seemed to be afraid of something and forcibly spread outward, quickly disappearing.
The only saving grace was that the dead man did not immediately attack the two. Instead, he hopped to the left, bent down, and tried to pick up the Azik Copper Whistle.
Klein immediately flicked his left hand, causing " Lemano's Travel Notes " to precisely turn to the page containing " The Abyss Shackles ".
This is an extraordinary ability Record by Emlyn; it belongs to Sequence 7, " Vampire ".
As Klein's right hand, gripping the " Death Knell " revolver, slid across the notebook sideways, the shadows surrounding the dead suddenly came to life, transforming into chains that tightly bound and restrained it in place.
Seizing the brief pause in his opponent's movements, Klein expressionlessly raised his pistol, turned the cylinder, and pulled the hammer.
Different colors then appeared in his vision: red, green, and pale white.
Aim at "Pale White," Klein pulled the trigger.
Bang!
A pale gold bullet flew into the remaining half of the deceased's head, causing it to explode and turn into a rain of blood. At the same time, the Purification Bullets emitted the Sun- like light, illuminating the target's entire body.
The deceased melted slightly, like a candle, and because he was bent over, he lost his balance and fell directly next to Azik Copper Whistle.
Monster that lack intelligence and act solely on instinct are indeed much easier to deal with than Beyonder of the same level... However, do I feel a little sorry for the Azik Copper Whistle? Since it was given to me, it has suffered from explosions, lightning strikes, and sunlight Purification; it has had a very difficult time... Klein felt a brief moment of remorse before Manipulation the " Wraith " Senor to pick up the ancient and exquisite bronze whistle and insert it into his body.
He didn't go directly over, fearing that another dead person might awaken. So, he continued to have Senor, the Marionette, explore the creature that had just resisted possession.
Klein suspected that the deceased possessed some rather high-level items!
Soon, Senor, in his non-" Wraith " form, touched something and pulled it out.
This is a playing card!
The front of the card depicts a man with his hands raised, wearing a triple crown, with believers prostrating before him, and behind him are lightning, dark clouds, gales, and waves!
Klein was very familiar with the man's appearance because he had a portrait of him dressed in another style.
This is Emperor Roselle!
Above and to the left of the statue of Roselle dressed as the Pope, a line of text appears formed by glittering starlight:
" Sequence 0: Tyrant!"
The Card of Blasphemy from the " Storm " path, the " Tyrant " card? Klein instantly thought of the Church of the " God of Knowledge and Wisdom " referring to the " Lord of Storms ":
Tyrant!
Alger also saw the " Card of Blasphemy," and his gaze froze instantly, a Greed flame suddenly igniting within him.
He took a deep breath, forcibly looked away, glanced to the side, and said:
"The battle just now was intense. Perhaps we've awakened something deep within this church, so we must gather our belongings as quickly as possible and be prepared to evacuate at any time."
"Mr. The Hanged Man," Klein said coldly, "Do you think I'm unaware of this? You don't need to be so verbose. What happened to our earlier understanding? Ha, as expected, the ' Tyrant ' card has had an effect on you, making you a bit unsettled and talkative..." Klein then instructed " Wraith " Senor to put away the " Card of Blasphemy " and enter the body of one of the dead to accelerate the release of Beyonder Characteristic.
You've wasted five seconds.
Alger paused for a moment, then said nothing more. He walked toward the remains of the Six-Winged Gargoyle, first gouging out its remaining Red Light eyes, then patiently waiting for a while before reaching into its shattered vest and pulling out a grayish-white, semi-transparent crystal cluster.
On the other side, under the power of the " Wraith," the body of the deceased, which was previously covered with yellowish-green pus, exuded a clump of brown "soil." This soil had roots and hidden "blood vessels," making it quite strange.
Without wasting time guessing which pathway or Sequence it belonged to, Klein directly had Senor put it away and turned to the undead whose slippery tentacles were still twitching slightly, accelerating the release of its Beyonder Characteristic.
Just as a jellyfish-shaped object filled with azure seawater was about to take shape, a long, drawn-out voice suddenly rang in Klein and Alger's ears:
"Why..."
The sigh came from the deepest part of the church, carrying an indescribable sense of vicissitude.
