Chapter 309 Darkness VI
The guards cried out in surprise.
They may not have seen clearly what attacked them in the darkness.
Even William only saw a vague outline.
Only Gillan squinted his eyes and saw it clearly...
It was a creature the size of a puppy, and its body was very similar to that of a human baby. It crawled on all fours, with pale and smooth skin all over its body. Its head was particularly large and round, but its facial features could not be seen.
There was a hole on its head, and two upright, eyeless, white "thin snakes" emerged from it.
The two snakes were in a "Y" shape, spitting out their tongues.
This scene easily reminded Gillan of the members of the "Chorus" he had seen in the Imperial Square.
Under their masks, two thin snakes emerged, and they could also produce orchestral music by spitting out their tongues, giving people a weird feeling.
In Jilan's sight, the entry "Colorful" appeared at the right time:
"Qiushang clan (juvenile). A mysterious creature born, belonging to the clan of the third-year 'God of Love', with the power of God flowing in their blood, and a strong desire for art."
"This creature has extremely strong plasticity and learning and imitation abilities, and is an extremely ancient race."
"Hmm?" Jilan raised his eyebrows.
Qiushang clan...
Same as Pan?
Both are mysterious creatures born, and are also descendants of the superior.
But Jilan didn't quite understand why such a clan would appear in this lake bottom cave.
Pah, pah...
With only a sound, the pale baby-like creature climbed quickly, along the steep and slippery rock wall, all the way up, and finally hung upside down on the dome.
Suddenly, the two white thin snakes on its head suddenly spit out their tongues.
Two groups of liquid bubbles as big as fingers were ejected like bullets, shooting straight at Jilan and his group.
Swoosh——
William reacted very quickly. Although he could not see clearly, he immediately drew out the cross sword on his back and slashed forward after hearing the sound of breaking air.
Bang! !
At the same time, a muffled sound of "puff" came from the side.
The other mercenary did not have the same ability as William, and suffered on the spot. His head was directly pierced by the liquid bullet, and he fell down with a pool of blood oozing from under his head.
"Damn it!" Seeing his companion fall dead, someone cursed in shock and anger. "Tegas and Marley were killed!"
Thum!
Gillan said nothing, stepped on his feet, and jumped out directly.
A gray cane suddenly appeared in his hand, which was the new weapon "Laughter".
Puff puff puff puff! !
The juvenile Qiushang monster was hanging upside down on the dome, spitting liquid bullets at Gillan through the snake's mouth.
The sharp sound of breaking air continued.
Jilan raised his hand and swung it, his cane dancing out a shadow, and the tip of the cane accurately intercepted the liquid bullets that fell like rain, making a clanging sound.
He reached into his waist with his other hand, pulled out the alchemical revolver "Echo", and pulled the trigger towards the top of his head.
Bang, bang, bang! !
Three shots in a row, all hit the juvenile monster, leaving three holes on its smooth body surface, splashing translucent gray-white blood.
"Squeak--"
The monster screamed, fell from the dome powerlessly, and hit the wet ground heavily.
Bang!
Its vitality was quite tenacious, and it was twitching while screaming. Even the two thin snakes that drilled out of the top of the big head kept twisting and swaying, which was quite creepy.
Jilan took two steps at a time, ran over, raised his hand and chopped it down with a cane.
Whoosh--pop! !
His heavy cane hit directly smashed the monster's head, and the mortar splashed.
At the same time, Gillan flicked his hand and gently touched the monster.
Colorful lights bloomed, and the monster's corpse decayed rapidly.
The color number "64" in his sight jumped and became "74", increasing 10 energy points.
"Squeak--"
"Squeak--"
Gillan just stood up and heard louder and louder weird screams coming from the deeper darkness.
"Squeak!!"
Soon, screams came from all directions, echoing in the entire lake bottom cave.
The faces of all the mercenaries changed, and they looked around in doubt.
William's eyes were solemn, holding a cross sword, protecting his friend Clark behind him. He was a whole head taller than Clark, and looked like an elder brother protecting his younger brother.
Pada pada!
Pada pada...
A series of sticky but crisp footsteps came.
With the faint light of the strange stalactites, everyone saw that dozens of humanoid creatures emerged from the darkness, but they were slightly taller than adult men.
They were like wild beasts, crawling on the walls, or crawling at 90 degrees on the slippery cave walls, or hanging upside down on the dome.
The pale and smooth skin was particularly eye-catching, especially the head that was a circle larger than that of an ordinary person, like a ball filled with water.
There were no facial features, only an opening on the top of the head, and more than a dozen thin snakes drilled out of it, like the pistil in the center of a flower bud, dancing non-stop.
"I... We seem to be surrounded!"
Someone swallowed and said tremblingly.
"The retreat is also blocked."
"Take out your weapons! Prepare for a desperate battle!"
William raised the cross sword and shouted in a deep voice.
He had judged the current situation and knew that he could not escape. Only by fighting would there be a chance to survive.
Jilan shouted to everyone:
"Come closer to me, don't lose your composure."
Clang!
A dozen mercenary soldiers surrounded the thin boy Clark, each took out a dagger, and quickly ran towards Jilan.
However, in the process, the pale monsters around attacked everyone without warning.
"Squeak!!"
The monster's big head trembled and swayed, and it spit out strange screams through its snake mouth.
In an instant, everyone felt a stinging pain in their eardrums.
Puff puff puff puff! !
Countless liquid bullets fell like rain, flying towards everyone. Suddenly, three or four guards were pierced through the body, and fell to the ground like a sieve and died.
The rest of the people tried their best to dodge and raised their daggers to block. But except William, almost no one could do it without any injuries.
At such a critical moment, William made a prompt decision, knowing that he could no longer stay where he was and endure attacks from all sides.
He pulled Clark and ran deeper into the cave... because there was an empty space there.
Swish--
Suddenly, a member of the Qiushang clan, whose physique was obviously much larger than his companions, landed in front of William on the dome.
What was surprising and disturbing was that the group of snakes on the monster's head twisted into a ball, forming a "cross sword" exactly the same as the one in William's hand!
Immediately, the monster stood up like a human, grabbed the "cross sword", and slashed vertically in the same way as William had just swung his sword.
Clang! !
William also swung his sword to fight with it, and it made a crisp clanging sound, and even sparks flew!
"What kind of monster is this..."
William's pupils shrank, and he was confused and shocked by such an extraordinary existence.
"It should be the 'Qiushang clan'."
At this time, Clark, who was protected behind him, spoke. The sound buzzed through the thick glass of the helmet.
"I've read in an ancient book that they have a strong ability to learn and imitate... William, try not to fight, the longer you drag it out, the worse it will be for you."
"It's best to kill with one blow!"
"I know."
William replied briefly.
Clang! Clang Clang!!
One man and one monster, just like a duel between knights, using swords as weapons, constantly fighting.
The mercenary team was also imitated by the monsters. They stood upright like people, and the snakes on their heads twisted into a ball, becoming daggers, almost like the "reflection" of the guards.
The two sides fought in a group.
Even Jilan was no exception... In front of him, there was a member of the Qiushang clan holding a "staff" in his right hand and a "gun" in his left hand.
The monster raised his left arm, and the snake mouth spurted out liquid bullets with a bang.
Jilan sneered and pulled the trigger of the revolver.
Bang!!
The powerful firepower tore the liquid bullet apart, and the momentum continued to hit the opponent's chest, leaving a hole the size of a bowl, splashing gray liquid!
"Squeak!" The monster screamed.
It staggered first, then rushed forward like crazy, swinging the "cane" at Jilan.
"Learn from me?" Jilan snorted.
He swung the cane, shook his wrist at the moment of collision, and the terrifying tremor was transmitted, hitting the opponent's "cane", and actually broke it apart directly!
The "cane" made of snakes suddenly bent and deformed, and scattered!
At the same time, Jilan used the "Taurus Sword" and stabbed the monster's throat with the tip of the cane, making a muffled sound.
He retracted the cane and swung it, and the shadow of the cane was like a fan, and the "Aries Sword" followed closely and hit the side of the monster's big head.
Bang! !
Its head was concave and flat, and the mortar gushed out. The body then tilted and fell to the ground.
After a few twitches, there was no movement.
Jilan bent down and flicked his hand, and his fingers touched lightly.
In the flash of colorful light, the body of the Qiushang clan began to decay rapidly and turned into his mysterious energy.
The color number "74" in his sight jumped to "109", 35 points more!
Jilan turned his head again.
He found that the mercenary team was almost dead.
Although the guards were stronger than ordinary people, they were as fragile as lambs to be slaughtered when facing mysterious creatures like the Qiushang clan.
Jilan glanced at William and found that he was fighting fiercely with a sturdy Qiushang clan.
Seeing this, Jilan took a deep breath and decided not to miss this wave of mysterious points that were delivered to his door.
Swish!
His golden hair instantly turned red, his eyes turned dark, and the blood vessels in the corners of his eyes were exposed.
At the same time, the "Laughing Staff" in his hand made a crisp sound and then changed its shape.
In an instant, it turned into a slender flower basket cross sword. But its appearance is somewhat similar to the Swift Sword.
Bang! !
There was a bang under Jilan's feet.
He rushed out.
In this process, the "anchor" essence took effect and directly displayed the "Release of Humanity".
At this moment, Jilan's expression was ferocious and his firepower was full.
He used his strongest strength just to launch the most efficient killing form!
"Kill! Kill them all!"
Jilan laughed wildly, and with a stroke of the cane sword in his hand, twelve residual images fell in the air, and the blood-letting secret sword was used with all his strength.
His figure was extremely swift, and in just a blink of an eye, he crossed the pale monster group. The sharp sword light crossed the trajectory and landed in front of him, and the entire trajectory formed a hexagram pattern.
Chi Chi Chi Chi! !
The sword light flashed, and in an instant, it cut through seven or eight Qiushang clansmen, pierced their hearts, heads, throats and other fatal parts, and dismembered them with mysterious rhythms!
There was a crackling sound, and the pale limbs fell to the ground like broken building blocks, and the sticky gray liquid splashed everywhere.
At this moment, Jilan, who had burst out with all his strength, had already surpassed the average 3rd-level mystic in actual combat ability.
In addition to the sharpness of the "Sword of Laughter" and the terrifying secret sword technique "Gerald's Bloodletting Sword" that he had mastered, in such a scene, it was a one-sided massacre!
Swish-Bear!!
Jilan moved his thumb and pressed the switch on the handle. The green gunpowder loaded inside the handle core was ignited, lighting up the pattern on the sword body, showing an emerald-like dark green color.
The high-temperature flames swayed, causing the straight sword body to fluctuate around, and even the air was distorted.
Huh!!!
Jilan swung the sword.
A burning green flame sword light passed by, like a hot knife cutting butter, easily cutting off the bodies of several Qiushang clansmen.
These mysterious creatures were cut in half and fell to the ground, being burned to death in just a few seconds.
The rest of the Qiushang clan saw this, but they were not afraid. Instead, they began to learn to imitate Jilan.
The snakes above their heads twisted and turned into the shape of a flower basket cross sword, but they could not imitate the high-temperature flames. They were only similar in appearance.
And their physiques were imitated to the limit, and they barely reached the master level. Facing the ghostly Jilan, they were no different from living targets.
Hiss, hiss, hiss! !
Jilan flashed left and right, and the sword of laughter swung continuously.
This killing lasted less than two minutes, and all the Qiushang clan members present fell under his sword.
It can be said that the sword of laughter plus the secret sword technique are like adding wings to a tiger for Jilan, greatly improving his strength and killing efficiency.
"Hush..."
Jilan stood in place and let out a long breath.
He swung the cross sword, and the flames went out, emitting wisps of green smoke.
At the same time, Jilan released his own secret state and the trusteeship of the "Mad King".
He calmed down a little, and then silently corrupted the corpses on the ground.
The colorful lights flashed one after another, and the mysterious energy continued to flow into his body and turned into points.
"109" increased rapidly.
"139", "174", "199", "236"...
After all the bodies of the Qiushang clan were corrupted by Jilan, the number of colors in his sight came to "919" points!
'So many! '
Jilan looked happy and said in his heart.
'This time watching the movie is really good! Enough to "colorfully" deduce the fusion secrets! '
He looked up and saw that William had also successfully killed his opponent, the tallest Qiushang clan.
William pulled the cross sword out of the monster's chest, turned around beautifully, and beheaded the opponent---
Swish!
The round and pale big head rolled down with the snakes.
William was panting heavily, obviously he had spent a lot of energy.
Jilan chuckled and walked over.
However, in the next second.
Boom! !
A terrible collapse suddenly occurred where William and Clark were!
"?!" Both of them were shocked.
There was a loud bang, and the two fell down with the headless body of the monster.
Jilan rushed forward, but when he looked down, he saw only a large hole with a diameter of several meters, and it was pitch black below, with no bottom.
