The Death List Novel - Chapter 49
Chapter 49 Death Battle
This was the true combat skill of an exorcist! Qin Lun clenched his fists tightly, his pupils contracted into pinholes, and a huge sense of danger suddenly arose in his heart.
Qin Lun had just arrived at Albert Castle when Bonny gave him the impression of a straightforward, unrestrained noble young master. The blonde youth slowly showed a mature side as he treated Little Miller and joined the Exorcist camp in the later stages.
Even so, Qin Lun still didn’t treat him as a powerful warrior. Even if Bonny later recaptured BEN and taught him how to dodge, Kieran didn’t change his mind.
In his opinion, as long as Joey was close, Bonny was no different from the other undead who had died under the hands of the murderer. They were all just ants. Perhaps … they were stronger ants.
Although Qin Lun had always heard of exorcists, witches, and evil creatures, he had never regarded them as powerful creatures that surpassed the limits of humanity.
As for the statue ghost that had died in his hands, Bly, who was clumsy and fell into the Man-eating Flower Trap, seemed to have unilaterally proved that the so-called witches and exorcists were just ordinary creatures. Their combat strength was not terrifying, and they were still within their control.
However, Bonny’s current sword strike shattered the barrier in Qin Lun’s heart, allowing him to sense for the first time that an Exorcist might be a death threat that even Joey could not face head-on.
Judging from what he had seen and heard in the exorcist squad over the past few days, Bonny was only one of the experts in the exorcist camp, not the strongest. That Overlord Hua Nuowa was even stronger than the blonde youth.
But Qin Lun asked himself, he couldn’t win against Bonny. At the very least, he couldn’t stop the sword strike just now. Thinking of this, Qin Lun’s heart sank. Fortunately, Joey didn’t lose control of Albert Castle that night and forcefully used force to obtain the Albert Clan’s secret spell. Otherwise, he would probably be dead by now.
No wonder the three exorcists not only let him stay behind, but even the brute Frank didn’t have to participate in the battle. Originally, Qin Lun thought that he had deliberately stayed behind to protect himself, but now it seemed that they were afraid that Frank would drag them down!
After realizing this, Qin Lun fell into deep thought as he watched the battle in front of him. He was thinking about how he could win against the exorcists and the witches of Maya who were skilled in dark magic.
The murderer had an instinct. Even if he didn’t have the strength to surpass the limits of humanity, he still had the ability to kill exorcists and even Maya witches. However, he hadn’t discovered it yet.
Witch Maya screamed angrily after being killed by Bonny’s death. Her body was sent flying in the air, but Qin Lun did not see the blood splashing out of her body. Instead, he heard a crisp “bang” sound, much like the sound of metal and wood striking each other.
The long black hair behind the witch’s head suddenly exploded, like a peacock opening its screen. A portion of her long hair was wrapped around the crisscrossed wound on her chest like a bandage. After she landed on the ground, she rolled on the ground several times, and her originally gentle eyes shot out a vicious gaze.
“Ya!” Witch Maya opened her mouth wide. Her small cherry mouth had been split to the roots of her ears. Her charming and beautiful face was decaying at a visible rate. Her skin was like lime, revealing an ugly face filled with white moss and cracks.
The witches were all very old. Even after a thousand years of agreement, the new witches who used magic potions were over three hundred years old. Although they had obtained the “Undying” attribute, their originally beautiful and charming faces could not be preserved. Usually, they would only use black magic to cover up their true faces.
However, now that she had been beheaded by Bonny, the Mayan witch had no choice but to mobilize all of her magical power to fight. She could no longer maintain her ugly appearance.
The scroll that Oddo had just used was a very ordinary earth magic called Gravity. Most witches could use magic to fly. If they wanted to defeat witches, they had to break their flying advantage first.
The witch stood up again. From her shoulders to her ribs, there was a large “X” shaped wound. “Death Strangulation” was a very powerful sword skill. It was as if a witch’s body was not as strong as iron wood. This strike was enough to cut her into four pieces.
The black hair wrapped around the wound slowly fused into her body. The flesh and buds on the wound were wriggling like maggots, and the broken body healed at a visible rate.
To kill a witch, such a degree of knife wound was not enough. Witches were “undying”, and there were only a few ways to truly kill them. Purification by fire was the best method. Flames could destroy witches’ bodies and souls together.
Apart from the flames, there were also other methods, such as cutting off their heads, piercing through their heart cores with items that contained the magic power of Longevity, and so on.
“Ahahaha!” Witch Maya glanced at the battlefield and let out a hoarse laugh, like the cry of a night owl. Her vocal cords had also recovered from the damage caused by magic that could not maintain their beauty. This time, she was exactly the same as the witch Qin Lun had imagined.
After giving the witch a heavy blow, Oddo and Bonny did not pause for a moment and continued to charge forward. Bonny held his two swords in front of him, while Oddo had a silver awl in his hand that was more than a foot long.
Within the hollow of this sharp cone was sealed the Holy Spring Water that had been blessed by the believers of the Immortals. As long as the spike pierced into the heart core of the witch’s heart, even if she couldn’t kill the witch, it would be enough to make her lose all her magic power and become an ordinary old woman who was dying.
Bonny instantly rushed in front of the witch. He raised his two swords and half-spun his body into a thunderous sword slash. A silver bolt of lightning swept down from top to bottom like a whip towards the witch.
Exorcist Combat Sword Skill-Half Moon Slash!
“Hehe!” Monster Witch laughed as she waved her wand and jumped into the sky. Gravity made it impossible for her to fly for a short period of time. However, it could not completely restrict her movements. At the very least, she could turn flying into a powerful jump.
“Die!” Just as the witch jumped into the air, a black shadow appeared in front of her. Oddo, who was hiding behind Bonny, seemed to have been waiting in the air for a long time, waiting for the witch to arrive.
The tip of the awl that flickered with cold light grew bigger and bigger in the witch’s eyes. The silver awl broke open the witch’s left chest like a bamboo stick. Its wooden-like body was cut open like a cream cake until the tip of the silver awl pierced into a nut-shaped heart core that emitted a red glow.
“Ah!” Along with the witch’s screams, her long hair suddenly swelled and pierced into Oddo’s face and chest like sharp wires.
“Pupupupu!” The exorcist’s face and upper body exploded with bloody flowers, like a piece of dead wood silently falling from the sky. With a “bang”, a ball of dead leaves and dust was stirred up on the ground.
“Sir Oddo!” Bonny’s eyes were scarlet as he roared. He merged his two swords into one and swung his arm. He used his sword as a staff to slash the witch’s back like a whirlwind, sending her flying from the sky.
Exorcist Combat Sword Skill-Tornado Slash!
Qin Lun, who was hiding in the grass, was dazzled. He was deeply touched by the cooperation of the two exorcists and their heroism, regardless of sacrifice. Bonny’s swordsmanship was very strong and brilliant, but Oddo’s divine level prediction was even more amazing.
Behind Bonny, he seemingly cooperated a few times, making the entire battle look like a planned drama. The Maya witches who possessed numerous dark magic were actually killed on the spot without being able to widen their distance and cast a few smug magic skills!
No wonder the team was led by Oddo instead of the swordsman Bonny Albert. Oddo indeed had the qualifications. If the situation wasn’t bad for the exorcist, Oddo wouldn’t have had to sacrifice himself to kill this Mayan witch.
The witch fell from the sky and remained motionless. After Bonny sent the witch flying, he took two steps forward and picked up Oddo.
“Is the witch dead?” Oddo opened his mouth and blood gushed out of it like a fountain. His upper body was already seeped with blood, and his face was covered in blood holes. His eyes had been stabbed blind, and the bloody holes in his chest were even more dense, like a honeycomb.
“She’s already” Bonnie endured the pain and glanced in the direction of the witch’s fall. Just as he was about to confirm the witch’s death, his gaze narrowed and he slowly put Oddo down. He stood up, his face ashen.
The witch who had her heart pierced was slowly getting up from the ground. She turned around and looked at Bonny with a ferocious expression.
The witch grabbed the silver cone on her chest with one hand and pulled it out with an ear-piercing sound. A dark green liquid shot out.
“Clang!” The witch threw the silver cone on the ground, and her right hand, which was full of sharp nails, pressed into the wound on her left chest, dug out a dim and broken heart core.
“Hehe, exorcist, I didn’t expect that!” Witch Maya smiled sinisterly as she flicked her broken heart core and waved her finger at Bonny.
“It’s not possible!” Bonnie shouted angrily, and with his two swords in hand, he pounced on the witch again.
“Little exorcist, you’re too far away from me. You’ve been chopping for so long, it’s time for me this time!” A hint of ridicule flashed through the witch’s eyes. She leapt into the air and avoided Bonny’s attack. She waved her wand and an invisible air bullet instantly hit Bonny, blasting him far away.
“She has another heart core!” Oddo spat out blood as he struggled to sit up. Although he couldn’t see, the old exorcist had already understood the current situation.
This Maya Witch was not simple. From the day she was born, there was only one Heart Core, and it was also the source of her Undying. A witch with two heart cores meant that she must have killed another witch. While the witch was still alive, she dug out her opponent’s heart core, so that she could have two heart cores at the same time.
It should be on his right chest! Hidden behind him, Qin Lun stared at the witch’s right chest with a gloomy expression. Almost at the same time, he and Oddo understood why the witch hadn’t died yet.
If he didn’t interfere, his chances of failing this operation would be more than 90%! Qin Lun turned his head to look at the other battles on the open space, his eyes sparkling …
