The Death List Novel - Chapter 509
Chapter 509 Dilemma
Holding onto Liv and Mila’s hands, the color of the blood crystals quickly dimmed and eventually turned into dust that slid down between their fingers. Their auras grew stronger, and the surrounding void emitted a “buzzing” sound, as if a strong wind was blowing through a crack in the rock.
A layer of blood-colored mist seeped out from their bodies, causing ripples and wrinkles in the air. However, the blood energy was roughly limited to one foot of their bodies and slowly merged into the red hooded cloak behind Liv and Mila’s black dovetail vest.
Infiltrated by the blood energy, the two red cloaks and the black horse armor actually began to shine with brilliant colors. The edges began to stretch and deform, as if they possessed vitality. They dragged a long section behind the two of them and floated spontaneously.
In fact, the Grimm Fairy Tale Girls’ group, some of the clothes they wore weren’t ordinary items, but equipment specially made from the corpses of evil spirits after their death.
These equipment possessed some of the abilities of powerful evil spirits before they died. After being stimulated by the blood crystals, they would once again display their abilities. After absorbing the Blood Crystal Original Energy and activating the Blood Crystal Equipment’s ability, the Fairy Tale Girl Group truly displayed its strongest posture.
“Drink!” Liv gently waved her cloak and disappeared. When she reappeared, she had already leapt into the sky above the pit. Her slender waist twisted, and the Reaper Sickle drew a bright arc and slashed towards Grant below.
“So fast!” Grant was shocked, but at the same time, he felt an indescribable strangeness.
After activating the [Gift of the Clown], he could also increase his speed to the level of supersonic speed. However, there was bound to be a big commotion similar to a gas explosion or a shock wave between his movements.
However, Liv was like a fish swimming in the water. Her speed was as fast as teleportation, but she didn’t seem to be subjected to any air resistance. He moved elegantly and smoothly without a trace of fireworks.
‘”Ah ~” Grant shouted, veins rising up on his forehead, and he kicked Luke out of the pit. His naked skin quickly turned purple-black and hardened, turning into a horny armor that resembled an insect’s shell.
“Ka!” The Reaper Sickle sliced deep into Grant’s arm’s cuticle, and the hardened shell on its surface revealed spider web-like cracks.
However, Grant did not pay attention to his injuries. Instead, he tensed his body cautiously, like a spring compressed to the extreme, because Liv was gone again.
“Pu!” Grant’s heart suddenly trembled as he instinctively raised his arm to block the Death Scythe that was attacking his ears. The sharp blade of the sickle flew away like a dragonfly, and a blood arrow shot out from his arm.
However, after the blood smeared on the cuticle outside Grant’s arm, it seeped into the carapace and quickly repaired the wound. This was Clown’s ability to increase the bloodline of the parasitic virus–colonization.
However, with Liv’s swift attack, Grant’s wounds continued to increase at a visible rate. Such a powerful healing ability of the virus bloodline was actually gradually collapsing.
Grant was temporarily imprisoned in place, unable to move a single step, like a nucleus surrounded by countless electrons. From the outside, Clown’s tall body was completely submerged by red light shadows. It looked like a giant red ball of light.
This was Little Red Riding Hood Liv’s self-created martial skill, the red hole of the Reaper Waltz!
Liv was an agile person. With the influence of the Blood Crystal, her mutated superpower also tended to be neurotic and explosive, and she possessed super high-speed movement ability.
Supported by this ability, Liv used the Reaper Sickle as her main weapon and created her own melee fighting technique that combined rhythmic gymnastics and dance, the current Reaper Waltz.
During World War II, Liv’s fighting skill was actually not mature. At that time, her [Full Moon Dance of Reaper] was completely restrained and cracked by Grant through the simulation of [Gift of the Clown].
However, the current Reaper Waltz was a mature martial skill that Liv had tailored for her. Due to the limitations of her body size and weapons, Grant might not be able to simulate it even if he used the [Gift of the Clown].
While Grant was engaged in a bitter battle, another fairy tale girl, Black Empress Mila, launched an offensive against Warrant Officer Luke.
The battle between the two of them wasn’t intense. Mila was influenced by the blood crystals and her ability to guide them was very special. She would leave behind a short afterimage in her movements. These afterimages weren’t remnants of the high-speed movement, but rather the natural remnants of the body’s energy. Almost all of their auras were identical, and they also possessed a certain degree of offensive power.
Their battlefield was currently filled with Mila’s afterimage avatars, sealing Luke in the center like a wall, greatly limiting the Warrant Officer’s ability to slash at high speed. However, Mila’s attack power was not as strong as Liv’s, and Warrant Officer Luke could barely survive with his high speed.
Of course, this was partly because Mila was distracted from Liv and was observing another battlefield.
…
“Bang!” Light and darkness buried at the same time sprayed out a flame, but they were practically in the same order as each other. It sounded like there was only one gunshot.
The white giant formed by Leo stretched out a praying fan to block the face door. However, the two bullets lightly touched each other halfway, causing a spark to appear. At the same time, they accelerated their rotation speed, strangely bypassing the front, drawing two beautiful arcs to attack the giant’s temples. They actually used the bullets to simulate the “two-peak piercing ears” of boxing.
At this moment, White Giant could not avoid it. His body shook, and a stream of blood was marked on his left and right temples. However, that was all. A trace of anger quickly appeared on the giant’s face. He opened his mouth wide and let out a silent roar.
“Again!” Qin Lun’s eyelids twitched as he opened his left hand, which was wearing sacrificial gloves, to block him. Several translucent pentagram mirrors surrounded him like a row of loyal guards.
As soon as the crystal mirror appeared, it exploded one after another. The rioting elements blew Qin Lun away fiercely.
“Bah!” Qin Lun stood awkwardly and spat out a mouthful of blood. His gaze flickered as he looked at White Giant, who was flying towards him.
“Dingdang!” The skin on White Giant’s left and right temples slowly wriggled. A pair of deformed bullets were forcefully squeezed out by his muscles and landed on the potholed ground.
Seeing this scene, Qin Lun immediately felt helpless. This was the first time he had encountered an opponent who had no choice but to go to the funeral. One had to know that this pair of guns was a legendary set.
The White Giant that Leo had incarnated was much better than the Biochemical Giant from World War II. It seemed that he had never let go of the hatred in his heart these past few decades. He would rather take a huge risk and conduct biochemical experiments on himself.
Leo’s evolution was most likely aimed at Kieran’s fighting style. Back then, Kieran had used an FN-500 with the Weakness Predictor to threaten the White Giant’s life. However, the defense of the giant’s body was almost impeccable, leaving only a shallow crater on its temple.
Of course, the White Giant clearly knew that defense alone could not fight Qin Lun, so its original attack power had been greatly increased. The long arms hanging over his knees made the white giant look like an enlarged white gorilla. In fact, his motor ability was indeed similar to that of an orangutan.
Amongst large wild beasts, the orangutans had excellent athletic abilities. Although their running speed was not as fast as that of large cats, their upper limbs had more flexible movements. Judging from the strong winds brought by the pair of long arms, Qin Lun did not know that his physique and defense could withstand such brute force.
Most importantly, the White Giant’s previous infrasound ability had also been improved. During World War II, he would have harmed himself with infrasound, but now, this kind of hidden danger seemed to have disappeared. Although the increase in power was not great, this ability to attack and defend without any blind spots made Qin Lun feel like a mouse pulling a turtle, unable to do anything about it.
“Want to spread out and use the Secret Silver Arrow and the Star Black Hole? Want to call Cyberus and Venus to attack together?” Qin Lun’s mind was racing as he thought about how he could win.
“However, the Secret Silver Arrow and the Star Black Hole are unable to kill this kind of defensive power in one blow. Either way, this battle will drag on for a long time. Not only will the original plan be nullified, but when the other Apostle arrives, it will be doubtful whether they will be able to obtain the final spoils of war.”
Just as Qin Lun was pondering, a large black shadow suddenly appeared in front of him, bringing with it a fierce gust of wind. Looking closely, it was White Giant who used his divine power to pull out a tree that was two feet in diameter and threw it directly at him.
Qin Lun cursed in his heart. A crystal mirror quietly flashed beneath his feet, avoiding the tree trunk. However, the strong wind still made his skin hurt.
He suddenly realized that even if he used the Secret Silver Arrow and the Star Black Hole, it might not work. With the Divine Power of the White Giant, he could use anything as a shield. After he extended the distance, the attack power of the projectile could not be ignored.
Thinking of this, Qin Lun couldn’t help but feel a little regretful. If he had known that he would encounter such a pervert, he shouldn’t have used the Wind Chasing Frost’s “Dry Glacier” at the beginning of the war. The White Giant was an unparalleled type of physical attack and defense, and only magical skills were the most effective.
There were several magical skills stored in the sacrificial gloves. Among them, the Tier 6 Flame Burst Spell should be able to harm the White Giant. However, there was only one. With the White Giant’s resilience and physique, not dying from injuries would only make him even more violent, but it would also have little practical effect.
“Do you really want to use the Abyss Devil Transformation?” Qin Lun glanced in Grant’s direction, his expression becoming even more serious. “That fellow’s condition is worse than mine. I’m afraid I can’t count on him anymore.”
“Wait …” Qin Lun’s heart suddenly stirred as he thought about it. He felt that he had fallen into a certain misunderstanding. Without using the Abyss Devil Transformation, he would not be able to deal with the White Giant. However, with the help of the Pentagram Crystal Mirror and the Gale Technique, Leo didn’t seem to be able to do anything to him.
“If I were Leo, what would I do?” Qin Lun’s eyes lit up as a smile slowly appeared at the corner of his mouth.
