Chapter 12: The Moment of Slaughter
Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Luke used time reversal to catch Bernie, who was dodging, back under his sword.
He slashed down.
The three-star hero midget was cut into two halves as if he was chopping wood.
After killing Bernie, Luke moved forward with his blade, and two ice wheels were thrown at the frightened members of the Wild Axe Party.
The members of the Wild Axe Party retreated in fear and huddled together in the narrow corridor. The Ice Dance Garden expanded, and the ice wheel formed by the Star Fragments rushed into the crowd of party members like a meat grinder.
The moisture formed white fog and snowflakes in the ice.
A large amount of red blood exploded and sprayed out, dyeing a portion of the snow red.
White snow and red snow danced in the air currents created by the churning ice wheels.
After it landed, it buried the body parts that could not be seen.
The walls of the corridor were covered in ice, and after the blood sprayed on them, they froze, forming ice sculptures that looked like corals.
Luke walked forward in this strangely beautiful corridor. There was no one standing in front of him.
The Star Fragments returned after flying to the end of the corridor. He shattered the ice on the blade and inserted it back into the scabbard on his waist.
Luke came to the entrance to the second floor.
According to the guide, there was a wide hall below, and Giant Tree's room was at the end of the corridor on the right side of the hall.
From above, he could hear the chaotic footsteps in the hall on the second floor, as well as the voices of people shouting and commanding.
Some of the members of the party must have escaped and told the rest of the reinforcements about the situation.
They knew that in the narrow corridor, they could not use their advantage in numbers, so they set the battlefield to stop the invader in the hall on the second floor.
Luke jumped over the three-story guardrail.
A loud explosion sounded.
The members of the Wild Axe Party had actually set up a cannon in the hall on the second floor!
The cannon was an 18-pound front-loading smooth-bore cannon that had been eliminated from naval ships. It could fire round-shot and grapeshot.
The muzzle of this cannon was facing the staircase to the second floor from the third floor.
Seeing the intruders appear, the gang members holding torches lit the fuse.
The enclosed environment of the building made the sound of the cannon exceptionally loud. As the muzzle spewed out flames and thick smoke, a large number of marble-shaped shrapnel shot out.
The fan-shaped bullet screen enveloped the entire building.
When this kind of weapon was used in this kind of environment, it displayed its invincible power.
The bullet screen fanned out and instantly collapsed the stairs.
Shattered stones and wood chips flew in the smoke and dust. Some of the members of the Wild Axe Party who were too close were hit and screamed.
Did they kill the intruder?
They didn't know yet.
However, the temperature in the hall suddenly dropped.
Everyone's breath turned into white mist, and the walls and ceiling quickly turned into ice.
It was as if winter had arrived.
Their skin was exposed to this low temperature, and it felt like it was being cut.
"The intruder is still alive. Find her and kill her!"
Someone shouted.
At this moment, a huge ice wheel rose in the middle of the crowd.
A few of the gang members who had been cut in half were sent flying by the ice wheel and hit the ceiling. The blood they spat out quickly solidified, sticking them to the ice on the ceiling.
The rising ice wheel drew a deep groove in the ceiling, then turned and slashed down, spinning forward.
It only stopped when it crashed into a wall.
The ice layer on the ice wheel cracked, revealing a scimitar.
The scimitar flew back along the mark left by the ice wheel and was finally caught by a hand.
Only then did the members of the Wild Axe Party realize that the invading elf had been hiding among them.
She held a scimitar in her left hand, and the surface of the scimitar began to freeze due to the energy attachment.
Her other hand was holding a machete that was covered in white holy flames.
In the air, ice mist in the shape of flowers bloomed.
The freezing cold drilled into their bones.
Some of the members of the party were frozen and unable to move.
Then, a white halo with ice spread out with the elf as the center. The nearby members were instantly frozen into ice sculptures.
Then, a shockwave with holy energy spread out with the elf as the center.
The powerful impact hit the human-shaped ice sculpture, and the ice sculpture instantly shattered and flew out with the impact wave.
In a short period of time, the hall, which was filled with people just now, was only left with a few people alive.
The few remaining members of the Wild Axe Party were scattered all over the hall with weapons in their hands. They were trembling as they faced the invading elf. It was unknown whether they were afraid or cold.
Dang, dang, dang...
A strong member of the Wild Axe Party pushed the cannon and changed its direction.
He had a dull expression, and he was not affected by the frozen corpses on the ground. He aimed the muzzle at the elf and cleaned the barrel according to the procedure. He took a pack of gunpowder and poured it into the barrel.
It was orderly.
Just like a well-trained sailor in a naval battle, as long as the person was still alive and the ship did not sink, they had to keep firing at the enemy.
The other people in charge of this cannon were all dead, and it was much slower for only one person to control and load it.
Luke walked over and cut off his head.
Jebel Lys, a three-star hero.
All of his abilities were focused on controlling the cannons. If it was a battleship cannon battle, he would definitely be an excellent heroic cannoneer.
His other abilities were just so-so.
Jebel Lys's body fell on the barrel of the cannon. The surviving members of the Wild Axe Party threw away their weapons and fled.
Luke ignored the frightened guys and walked toward Giant Tree's bedroom with his knife.
She passed through a short corridor.
The end was her goal this time.
A woman in a long black robe stood in front of an exquisitely carved door.
The woman was very beautiful. Her hair was light purple, and she wore a headband with a ring of gems on it. As the elf approached, the gems on the woman's headband shone.
"Elf, you are very strong to be able to reach this point, but this is all you can do."
Luke held the scimitar in one hand and the machete in the other as he continued to walk forward.
"Brenda, is Giant Tree inside?"
Brenda was a dark magician who specialized in curses, poison, and corrosive magic.
She was the mistress of the Bull Horned Demon Giant Tree.
Brenda's ability was rated as three-star, but the players recognized Brenda as a supermodel, so her true ability should be 3.5 stars.
He should be more careful when facing a sinister 3.5-star dark magician.
"A dead man doesn't need to know the answer," Brenda said.
The light in the corridor dimmed and eerie wails sounded from all directions. Countless ghostly hands reached out from the wall to grab Luke. A black fog rose behind her, and a huge cobra stuck its head out.
The incantation echoed in the narrow space.
The black energy wrapped around Luke.
Luke ignored the threat that was right in front of him. She held the machete in front of her, and her right arm shone with white light.
"Brenda, looks like no one told you what kind of power I used just now."
Holy Blessing!
