Faceless felt a chill all over her body, this … how is this possible?
She swallowed her saliva and said in a low voice, "Are you kidding me, I am Volt.
It can't be such a coincidence that the other party just happened to know me. There are so many mercenaries in the camp, how could she remember everyone's name?
She did not expect a sneer to come from behind her, "Really? I never knew that a man could also gather magic in his body. Either you are a witch who sneaked into the camp with ulterior motives, or you are an extremely rare wizard. But no matter which answer, it can't be the Volt you mentioned. There is no one like you among the soldiers of the First Army. "
This person … can see the demonic power? Aphrodite's heart had already sunk to the bottom. She now knew why she had been discovered. There were more than four witches in the camp, and the woman behind her was also a witch. Moreover, she had an ability similar to the Eye of Truth. In the Church's Holy Book of Magic, such an ability was recorded. It was one of the hundreds of derivative abilities, and did not conflict with the main ability.
She did not see anyone approaching, then … the other party's main ability was to hide her body?
"Now kneel, hands behind your back, and I can still spare your life," she shouted, "do as I say!"
The mercenaries were still fighting on the periphery, and did not notice the scene in the center of the open space, but the four witches by the campfire had already noticed the abnormal situation here, and one after another cast their eyes over. "What happened, Nightingale? What happened?"
This was her last chance, Aphrodite realized that she was good at assassination rather than direct combat, especially in a situation where she did not wear the God's Stone of Retaliation, when dealing with witches with all kinds of strange abilities, she would not have the upper hand. It did not matter if the witch who could fly ran away, but the witch who could cure the demonic plague must die here, otherwise she would pose a serious threat to the Church's plan.
Of course, there was also the possibility that after killing the other party, she would also not be able to escape. Thinking of this, her heart could not help but tighten, but it quickly turned into calmness. In order to unify the four countries, the Church did their best to resist the demons from hell, and had already sacrificed many excellent soldiers. If she could make up for this goal, it would also be something to be proud of.
She believed, Heather would not forget her, and in the future, her name would also be in the Holy Book.
"Don't come any closer," the witch called Nightingale shouted from behind. "There's …"
At this moment, she suddenly turned around and elbowed him in the arm. At the same time, she lowered her head to avoid being stabbed by the weapon. It was impossible for anyone to completely concentrate when they were talking. Therefore, there was a saying that people should hold their breath and concentrate. This was what the instructor had repeatedly taught her. On the contrary, if she wanted to escape or attack while the opponent was unprepared, it was best to take advantage of the moment when the opponent was talking.
The mechanism hidden in his sleeve was also triggered at the first moment, and a white powder sprayed behind him. This kind of alchemy powder could release a large amount of heat when it came in contact with water, and if it entered the eyes or mouth, it could instantly make the opponent lose the ability to fight. Even if she was lucky enough not to inhale the powder, it was enough to make her flustered for a while.
Next, Aphrodite pounced at the four witches by the bonfire. One of the golden-haired witches flew up in a flash, while the one who looked to be the oldest stood in front of the other two without any regard for her own safety. She pulled out a sharp dagger and stabbed it at the person in the lead. Anyway, the three people who couldn't escape would all die in her hands, so there was no need to distinguish who would die first.
At the moment when the dagger pierced the opponent's body, Aphrodite saw an incredible scene.
A white shadow appeared in front of her. Under the hood, the eyes flashed with an angry light, and there was clearly nothing there before.
It was … Nightingale behind her?
That kind of powder spray at close range, why didn't it affect her at all? Faceless could hardly believe her eyes, only to see her raise her hands toward herself, and the silver weapon burst into a flame. Her body was pushed by something hard, and she suddenly lost her balance, falling backward to the ground. No, there are still … two people to deal with. Aphrodite wanted to stand up and pull out her dagger to stab the next witch, but she found that even raising her hand became very difficult, and her consciousness quickly blurred.
Unfortunately … her mind flashed the last thought.
…
After shooting, Nightingale was still in the same place, watching the soldier who was hit in the chest fall down. Her body began to twist and shrink, slowly changing back into the appearance of a strange woman.
This was the first time she personally killed a witch.
It wasn't until Lily's anxious shout sounded that Nightingale came back to her senses.
Suppressing the tumbling emotions in her heart, she put away the gun and ran back to Vendy's side.
"Where are you hurt?"
"It's nothing, I don't feel any pain," Vendy waved her hand, motioning everyone not to panic, "I shouldn't have been stabbed."
"Did the protective suit work?"
"I think it should be," she unbuttoned her chest and saw a slender dagger hanging on the side of her clothes. As the jacket opened, the dagger slipped out of the hole and fell to the ground. There was no blood on the tip of the dagger. Only the outer layer of the protective suit had a small hole, while the soft inner layer was still intact.
"You … you really scared me to death," Lily let out a long sigh, and her legs softened as she sat on the ground, "Don't rush to help me block the sword! I don't need you to do this kind of thing for me, I, I … "
"Well," Vendy touched her head, "I'm fine, aren't I?"
Lily shrugged her head, buried her head in the former's chest, and let out a muffled sound.
"I was also scared, I only cared about blocking in front of her, and forgot to use my ability," Vendy shook her head, "If there was a strong wind, she shouldn't have been able to stab me."
"Because you rarely fight with people, it's normal for you to not be able to react," Nightingale comforted her.
"Fortunately, I had the protective suit," Echo said with a look of fear, "otherwise this time we would have been in danger."
Before leaving, His Royal Highness Roland gave each witch a special vest, and asked them to never take it off at any time. It was very light to wear, but it looked a bit thick, and it seemed to be divided into many layers. His Royal Highness said that each layer of silk was painted with Soraya's sky coating, which made it extremely flexible, making it very difficult to be pierced by sharp objects, and had an excellent defense against swords and crossbows. If it hadn't helped to block the stab, Vendy might not have been able to survive until Nana's treatment.
Lightning slowly descended to the side of the dead witch, "Why did she attack us? Aren't we … the same kind? "
Nightingale stared at the lifeless woman for a long time, unable to speak … The other's eyes were closed, and her long blue hair was scattered on the ground. Her expression was serene, and it seemed that she didn't feel too much pain. But she could never forget that when she flew towards Vendy, there wasn't a trace of hesitation in her eyes, only determination and as if it was a matter of course. It was as if she wasn't killing people, but was instead practicing her lifelong ideals. Perhaps in her heart, this was the right thing to do.
