Just as he leaped out of the flames, Klein, who was wearing a golden glove on his left hand, had two points of light in his eyes grow larger and brighter, as though lightning had suddenly streaked across the sky.
After using Paper Figurine Substitutes to attract the attention of Steel Maveti and company, he had already activated Creeping Hunger and switched to the soul of the Interrogator, preparing to use the Beyonder power of Psychic Piercing.
"Ah!"
Steel Maveti suddenly let out a tragic cry. It was as though someone had stabbed a knife into his head, stirring his grayish-white brain. The pain burst out from the depths of his soul, instantly filling all his thoughts.
At the same time, his Beyonder powers erupted in response, turning into a hurricane that swept in all directions.
Beautiful and dreamy snowflakes began to fall from the sky, and a transparent layer of ice constantly spread out from the ground. The trees on both sides of the road were covered in white spikes before they rapidly withered, revealing obvious signs of decay.
The lingering vengeful remnant spirits were awakened one after another. They whimpered, sobbed, and screamed, dyeing the surroundings with a grayish-white and oppressive color.
Klein naturally descended from midair, his left glove emitting a brilliant light that resembled the Sun's rays.
He spread his arms and leaned back as though he was hugging something.
Just as his feet touched the cold ground, a pure, blazing, and thick pillar of light descended from above.
This holy light enveloped Steel Maveti, illuminating his dark skin, his firm muscles, and his curly hair that resembled steel balls.
Priest of Light, "Holy Light"!
Silently, Maveti's expression became more and more contorted as the surface of his skin showed clear signs of melting.
At that moment, he was like a candle that had been thrown into a burning fireplace.
Compared to the corrupted Bishop Millet, who had lost control, he, as a Zombie, was even more restrained when facing such attacks. The damage he suffered was even more severe!
The falling snowflakes stopped as the layer of ice on the ground rapidly melted. The trees that had white spikes on them revealed their brown color.
This magnificent pillar of light had undoubtedly attracted the attention of Blood Brambles Hendry and Squall. The former's expression changed abruptly as he reached into his hidden pocket, about to take out the casting materials and save Steel Maveti with the advantage of being higher up.
At this moment, a crow made of pure flames suddenly jumped out of his eyes.
One, two, three … Countless Fire Crows filled Hendry's field of vision like scarlet stars. They flew over from all directions, fluttering their wings in a dense mass. The scorching temperature was extremely high.
Hendry's heart skipped a beat, and his eyes almost froze. He immediately changed the direction of his palm and grabbed another material.
Shua!
He sprinkled a cluster of fine, light blue powder above him as he chanted in ancient Hermes, "I'm going to kill you."
"Ocean waves!"
The powder instantly expanded and turned into deep blue waves that swept out in all directions.
They collided with the Fire Crows and produced sizzling sounds, creating a large amount of white fog.
The fiery waves from the previous explosion had subsided a little. Through the remnant scarlet, Squall saw Steel Maveti, whose skin was melting like wax as his flesh and blood disintegrated inch by inch. He also saw the unfamiliar man in a black cloak who was facing him from the side.
He didn't panic. Like a cold-blooded venomous snake that had lost its emotions, he calmly raised his arms and suddenly pressed down with his palms.
In an instant, he saw the thin and cold-looking young man's body turn heavy and slow, as though his wings for flight had been snapped. As for Steel Maveti, he began to struggle and roll to the side in a bid to avoid the second round of Light of Holiness.
Right on the heels of that, Squall realized that the man had lost his weight and thickness, once again turning into a thin paper figurine. He was pressed to the ground by an invisible force and immersed in the mud after the snow melted.
Klein protruded from another spot as he rubbed his right thumb and middle finger together. As he charged forward, he snapped his fingers three times.
Pa! Pa! Pa!
The dark golden brooch in the shape of a Sun Bird flashed continuously, augmenting the Air Bullets with purifying powers. Bang!
Bang! Bang! The three bullets were closely connected and extremely fast. One after another, they hit Steel Maveti, who was still rather slow. They hit his right chest, penetrating his half-melted skin and flesh, creating an exaggerated and hideous wound as golden flames spread in all directions.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Squall threw scalpels one after another, but they were all dodged by Klein's dexterous acrobatic maneuvers.
At this moment, Steel Maveti had already recovered. With a push of his palm, he stood up again and charged at his enemy. He wanted to display his best melee combat abilities and his body's uniqueness, which made him unafraid of being hit.
A layer of ice formed beneath his feet again, and his fists were already suffused with the smell of decay.
Then, he saw two bolts of lightning shoot out from Klein's dark brown eyes like bullets, shining into his pupils.
Steel Maveti subconsciously raised his head and clenched his teeth. Blood seeped out of his nostrils, mouth, and ears, mixed with the melted skin from before.
At the same time that Klein shot out the Air Bullets, he had already Grazed his soul.
It was still the Interrogator, and it was still Psychic Piercing!
Against a Beyonder with a body as hard as steel like a Zombie, damage at the Spirit Body level was more effective!
The continuous blows made Steel Maveti's body temporarily stiffen, and at the same time, he lost the shackles of reason. Black, hard hair grew on his face, and his teeth and nails constantly grew longer. His skin squirmed in an attempt to reform, fading from black to pale white. He was like a real, crazy Zombie that thirsted for blood!
Taking this opportunity, Klein had already closed in. He crouched down and brushed past Steel Maveti's right shoulder. In passing, he stuffed an item in his palm into the hideous wound he had created and into his opponent's body.
It was a glass bottle with a few ordinary brass bullets tied to it. Inside it was a large amount of Sun Holy Water that Klein had prepared ahead of time!
Pfft!
Without stopping, Klein caused Squall's attempt to control him to fail once again.
With a spin of his heel, he spun behind Steel Maveti, their backs facing each other.
Pa! He raised his right hand and snapped his fingers before Steel Maveti could take out the glass bottle.
Bang!
A light explosion sounded as scarlet flames leaped, shattering the already fragile glass bottle. Large amounts of Holy Sun Water immediately poured into Steel Maveti's body.
This famous pirate with a bounty of 6,000 pounds froze on the spot as he let out a painful groan.
He plopped to the ground as black-green gas constantly spread out from his body before disappearing into the air.
Upon seeing this scene, Squall's eyes darkened. He immediately took out a black iron-colored charm and chanted a word in ancient Hermes:
"Screech!"
The talisman suddenly shattered and disappeared. The sacrifice was complete.
An invisible sound wave spread out like a tsunami, drilling into the ears of everyone in the surroundings almost at the same time.
Klein's mind buzzed as his nose felt a cold wind. Blood seeped out. On the Flying Carpet, Blood Brambles Hendry was in an even more tragic state. His face contorted as his body convulsed and collapsed. He couldn't even let out a scream. On the other hand, Blazing Dhaniz, who was on a distant roof, wasn't affected. He happily threw out a white fireball that had been repeatedly compressed.
The fireball landed on the defenseless Hendry and exploded with a boom.
Flesh and blood splattered outwards as his fingers, calves, and head were wrapped in flames as they fell to the ground. As a result, the Flying Carpet lost control and slowly sank.
Squall took the opportunity to turn around and run without any hesitation.
However, he was shocked to discover that the terrifying man who had nearly finished off Steel Maveti in ten seconds didn't hesitate at all. He had turned around and chased after him!
How can this be? This is the Screech Charm created by the admiral! Squall didn't have the time to consider the reason as he ran with all his might towards another street.
At that moment, his head was suddenly struck heavily by a "person." The tearing pain made him spasm all over.
The lightning in Klein's eyes receded as he raised his right hand and snapped his fingers again.
Bang!
An Air Bullet traversed a distance of about ten meters and accurately drilled into the back of Squall's head.
Squall didn't have the inhuman endurance of Steel. His vision immediately turned black as he slowly collapsed.
Klein took a few steps forward and reached out his left palm, allowing the joyful Creeping Hunger to enjoy its feast.
I've heard the True Creator's voice, and I've withstood Mr. Door's cries for help. In this aspect, my resistance to such things is very strong. Even a Wraith's scream can be quickly recovered, much less a charm … Klein silently muttered to himself as he watched Squall's body turn into flesh and blood before being thrown into Creeping Hunger's gaping mouth.
A few seconds later, Creeping Hunger stopped in satisfaction. Klein quickly returned to Steel Maveti's side.
This Zombie had been purified. Although his head wasn't smashed, he had lost his life.
Klein took a few steps forward and picked up the peacock blue carpet that had fallen to the ground. He wrapped it around Steel Maveti's body and lifted him up.
Looking back at the chaotic 15 Amyris Avenue, listening to the zombies and puppets losing control, and sensing that the Mandated Punishers were approaching, Klein tugged at his cloak's hood and bowed slightly in that direction.
Pa!
With a rub of his fingers, Klein ignited the surrounding paper fragments, producing a scarlet column of flames.
Under the illumination of the flames, his body turned incorporeal, turning into a shadow along with the items as he vanished from the spot.
As for the Beyonder characteristics of Squall and Hendry that were slowly seeping out and condensing, he didn't look at them, nor did he care about them.
Greed would cause people to fall into unnecessary danger. His current harvest was already sufficient!
After leaving behind a number of Mandated Punishers to deal with the zombies and puppets that had gone out of control, the pirates that had been injured by their "companions," and the Beyonder adventurers that had been captured, Cordoba Roye led the rest and rushed over. However, all he could see were corpses scattered all over the ground, scattered scalpels, and withered trees. He could distinguish the slowly receding aura of the Sun and the evil that came from deep within the flesh and blood.
