"So this is a knight?"
Han Dong, who was hiding in the dark, was completely shocked by the battle that erupted next.
The duel between the female knight and the fallen was far beyond the scope of human beings, not to mention magic and superpowers.
Just the most basic physical fitness alone was enough to shock Han Dong.
Celeste could reach a height of five meters with a normal knee jump, easily surpassing Beck the Fallen.
Her flail could penetrate a one-meter-thick stone wall and even create a deep pit in the ground.
Coupled with the various offensive holy light magic of the Holy Army, she continued to put pressure on her opponent.
Beck the Fallen had not fully adapted to his body due to the interference of distracting thoughts in his body. His lack of flexibility caused him to be in a state of "being suppressed."
On the surface, Celeste did seem to have the advantage.
But … there was a problem.
Even if every flail attack could shatter several tentacles, it still could not hurt the Fallen's origin.
The shattered tentacles would either crawl back to the main body or grow a new one.
"The Holy Army is not a pure offensive member, and they also need to 'hold a shield.'
Moreover, part of the holy light magic is also a buff type. The only things that can actually be used in battle are the throwing holy light attacks and the covering of holy flames on the surface of the flail.
Her positioning is more towards' defense 'and' team buffs. '
Only with the cooperation of teammates can she fully display her strength.
In a situation where she attracts the target's aggro to a large extent, she needs a teammate with enough offensive power to deal a fatal blow to the target.
If this continues, she will sooner or later exhaust her stamina and lose the battle.
I have to do something. "
Han Dong, who was hiding in the shadows, released Chen Li again.
Because she sensed the two powerful auras, Chen Li instinctively retreated and tried her best to blend into the darkness without revealing anything.
When Han Dong gave the battle plan, Chen Li immediately shook her head.
"It's too dangerous, we might all die."
"If we don't take the risk, we will die in the end … Why not take the risk?"
Chen Li disagreed and still rejected the idea of a head-on battle. "We can just run away now and let the female knight stall this Fallen monster … After this, at most, it will judge your mission as a failure, right?"
Chen Li was not a warm-hearted person.
When she judged that the enemy's strength was far above hers, she only thought of surviving, not throwing her life away.
"No … My goal is also not to save this female knight, but to obtain the magic book hidden in the Fallen's body! I need your help, Chen Li. "
The master-servant relationship was faintly taking effect. Chen Li found it hard to reject Han Dong's request, but she was still unwilling to take the risk.
"What if he dies?"
"Living in such a world, a large number of humans die every day … If we don't do something, if we don't fight for something important, we will die sooner or later.
My intuition told me that this book would be of great use to me.
Furthermore, if I can cooperate with Celeste to kill this Fallen One that has fused with the lifeforms outside the city walls, I will be able to obtain a large amount of 'cell essence' and have a higher chance of survival in the next Fate Realm.
Miss Chen Li, sorry to trouble you. "
"… Let's do as you say."
Chen Li's eyes were gloomy. She began to move her joints in a dark corner to warm up.
…
[Judgement of the Hammer]
Celeste used a unique skill.
When she swung the flail in her hand, a large portion of the holy energy was extracted from the Fallen One's head.
A giant hammer of holy light was formed on the Fallen One's head and suddenly fell.
When she released this attack, Celeste's consciousness was shaken and she knelt on one knee … She was unable to continue the attack.
When the giant hammer fell.
[Fallen One Beck] stretched out his arms full of tentacles to block it.
* Sizzle! *
Due to the repelling attributes, the arms used to block kept emitting black steam. The tentacles on the surface quickly turned into a filthy mucus and kept dripping to the ground.
* Crack! *
The Holy Hammer also contained a huge amount of power. The pressure made Beck's legs tremble slightly and sink into the ground.
However, this kind of Holy Hammer that relied on energy to form would not last forever.
As the contaminants were offset.
When the black steam was emitted, the light of the Holy Hammer also gradually weakened … If this continued, at most, Beck's arms would be destroyed, but it would not be enough to kill him.
Celeste gritted her teeth as she watched this scene.
[A mere Trainee Knight who was expelled, how could he withstand such a powerful creature from outside the wall!? With his physical state, he should have disintegrated during the process of 'acceptance'. Why was he able to perfectly accept it?]
This was the question that Celeste did not understand the most.
Acceptance and possession.
It was not a matter of finding a random host. The host's physical body had to be strong enough. Otherwise, it would turn into a pile of mud during the process of accepting the foreign object.
[Damn it … I did not expect the second level to give birth to such a troublesome Fallen One. If I can get out alive, I must report this to the higher-ups.
In recent years, the creatures outside have been wanting to invade us more and more, and their methods have become more and more secretive.
But … with my current methods, it is difficult to kill this thing.
What should I do? Consume the remaining energy of the Holy Tree and cut off all means of retreat?]
Celeste stared at the giant Holy Hammer that was about to be offset and prepared to make a terrible decision.
A red shadow flashed out from the corner.
It climbed up [Fallen One Beck's] shoulder from the side. (Celeste attracted the attention from the front, and there were huge eyes on the back. The side was the best position for a surprise attack.)
The tentacles all over Beck's body were subjective. When they felt a foreign object approaching, they would immediately wrap around it.
Swish ~ Swish ~
The kitchen knife covered in evil energy slashed rapidly, and the tentacles were all cut off.
Her gaze locked onto Beck's head.
That's right.
Han Dong's request was for Chen Li to lock onto Beck's head.
This was because Beck only had his head that was barely maintaining his human form.
Once his head was injured, even if he did not die, he would be affected to a certain extent, right?
Chen Li was a containment creature. Staying in a cell full of chaotic tentacles, she was also not afraid of any form of 'contamination.'
Taking advantage of the Fallen One's great opportunity to resist the Holy Hammer, she quickly climbed from the side to his shoulder, avoiding contact with the huge eye on his back.
The "eye on his back" was a feature that Han Dong was very concerned about. The mysterious magic book seemed to be hidden inside.
Moreover, from the previous battle, Celeste was also afraid of this eye. She fought head-on the entire time.
Because of the huge eye on his back, it was difficult to sneak attack this Fallen One from the back.
"Chen Li, do it … Try to attract its attention as much as possible."
The sharp kitchen knife slashed violently at Beck's bloated head.
Crack!
With one slash, the skull was split open.
A sudden change occurred.
Suddenly, a different kind of "brain tentacle" gushed out from the skull's crack.
The kitchen knife was unable to cut through this kind of tentacle …
Swish!!
The 'petroleum' liquid splashed all over the ground.
The tentacle easily pierced through Chen Li's shoulders and hung her in the air. The eye on her back stared directly at her!
At this moment, the youth hidden in the dark moved.
