The ferocity of Marcello's desperate struggle was beyond everyone's expectation.
In just ten seconds, a third-level [Hidden Shadow Warrior] was nailed to death with a long sword, and a third-level [Cloud-piercing Archer] was strangled to death.
Roy, the leader of the Fried Chicken Gang, was also seriously injured when a spear penetrated his shoulder. Sigg, Black Fox and others were also more or less injured.
The people around were silent. In fact, most people had never seen a master-level transcendent take action with all his strength.
If there weren't too many people besieging him, and countless open and hidden arrows, making Ghost Hand unable to defend against Zorro's shooting, he wouldn't have fallen so quickly.
At this moment, he was kneeling under a wall. His body was covered with bruises. The wounds were bleeding and stained his clothes red. His whole body was trembling slightly. The injuries were very serious.
Under the night, in an inconspicuous alley, a young man with red lips and white teeth stood in the shadows, his pupils glowing red looking at the ghost hand that had reached the end of its rope.
It was the liaison between Demon Fang and Marcello, the ghoul Count Will. His eyes flashed and he spoke softly: "Marquis Fenner, are we really not going to save Marcello?
If he dies, the plan will be interrupted and all investment will be wasted."
In the corner behind him, a vague and graceful shadow can be seen,
A melodious voice sounded, not loud, but it reached Will's ears clearly: "It can't be saved. What do you think the deacons and the inspector general in the 7th Bureau are doing?
They are just waiting for us to jump out. It's not just Omar, there may be other master-level transcendent beings hidden there. Human beings are insidious and cunning creatures."
Will frowned, clenched his fingers, and had an ugly expression on his face.
Winning over Marcelo is part of the ghoul clan's plan, because Ghosthand doesn't want to transform into a ghoul. What he wants is the source blood of the demon clan or the vampire clan.
Therefore, the ghoul clan had to obtain source blood from the demon clan at a high price. It can be said that the humans sent by Marcelo were not worth the price.
Count Will opened his mouth and was very puzzled: "That shouldn't be the case. According to the divination of those astrologers, the fate of the ghost hand is very long, and the probability of dying at this point in time is very small."
Everything that has ever existed will leave traces. The passing geese leave their voices and the passing people leave their names. In this world, prophets and astrologers can indeed predict or reveal some future changes.
Just like when the wind blows, the leaves begin to sway, and a dead leaf spirals and falls. As long as you estimate the wind direction and speed, and keep observing the falling trajectory of the leaf, you can sometimes judge in advance where it will roughly fall.
"Will, prophecies can only be used as references and should not be relied upon. The future is not static.
Moreover, since the horoscope changed drastically more than four months ago, the trajectory of fate has become confusing.
Half a month ago, fifteen masters of prophecy, headed by Master Andre, worked together to deduce the secret of heaven, and the result..."
Marquis Fenner's words ended abruptly. In the corner of the small building, she covered her little cherry mouth with her delicate hands to prevent herself from laughing out loud.
Count Will's face twitched. He had also heard about that incident. It could be said that the master astrologers among the demons had suffered heavy losses, and it would probably take many years for the power of prophecy to recover.
Half a month ago, the chief astrologer of the demons, Prince Andrei of the demon tribe, summoned the astrologers from all races to deduce the secrets.
The cause of the incident was that the trajectory of the stars changed drastically more than four months ago, which was very unusual. When the wave period arrived 12 years ago, the stars had already changed on a large scale.
Logically speaking, it should not happen again in a short time, but it happened.
Due to the astonishing changes in the horoscopes and the huge workload, and because of the special nature of the astrologer profession, there are almost no astrologers of the Grand Duke level, so Prince Andrei is too busy to do it alone.
For this reason, after three months of preparations, the work finally started on a special altar.
But just in the middle of the deduction ceremony, suddenly there was a thunderbolt in the clear sky, howling wind, lightning and thunder, and hundreds of brilliant thunders fell from the sky and struck down... The deduction ceremony was forced to be interrupted.
There will usually be backlash when deducing secrets, but such a serious situation is very rare and can be said to be exaggerated.
The formation on the altar failed to block the hundreds of terrifying thunderbolts. 9 of the 15 masters of astrology died on the spot and were chopped into charcoal. 5 vomited blood and fell unconscious on the ground.
Only Prince Andrei was in the center of the formation and was best protected and could barely stand.
He was covered in black smoke and endured the severe burning pain on his skin. He couldn't wait to walk to the gray stone slab and stared at the words on it with wide eyes.
There are only two big characters on the slate, the meaning is simple and clear──Fool
Poof, Prince Andrei vomited three liters of blood, was so angry that his whole body trembled, and soon fainted, and he has not woken up yet!
Got fooled.
This is the consensus of the demon bosses. Someone blocked the secret in advance or covered up the reasons for the changes in the stars.
He also deliberately set up a trap, and his methods were so superb that you didn't even need to think about it to know that it was done by humans.
Astrologer masters have a very high status, and the five living masters are furious and strongly demand the tribe to seek justice for them.
The demons tried to target the person who laid the trap, among which the old pope of the Church of Light was the most suspicious.
He is proficient in prophecy, extremely powerful, and has the ability and strength to lay traps.
Of course, some people suspect that it was the scholars of the natural school who dug the hole. The old pope is not a person of this kind of character.
It is the consistent style of scholars to play tricks on demons.
However, the demon descendants were not completely without gains. Previously, Prince Andrei deduced the secret of the sky alone and learned that the location that caused the great change in the stars was Faloran.
Therefore, in order to give an explanation to the masters of astrology and at the same time explore the reasons for the disorder of the heavenly secrets, the Yan of Gluttony on the Pugni Plain has several more layers of meaning.
As the turmoil intensifies, it can be said that the impact of this incident is getting bigger and bigger.
"call out!"
There was another strange gunshot, and an annihilation bomb flew out like a ghost.
There was a bang, and blood spattered from Marcello's head in the field, and a bloody hole appeared on his smooth forehead.
Zoro sighed slightly, put away the black Force firearm, and walked slowly to the ghost hand whose brains had been knocked out.
The vitality of a master-level extraordinary person is very tenacious. Marcello will not be dead for a while. Of course, it is just a comeback.
This kind of injury may not be fatal to the demon marquis, but a drop of source blood is not enough to transform the ghost hand into a demon.
"Do you have any last words?" Zoro's voice sounded a bit emotional. The opponent he had fought with for half his life was about to die. He was happy but also a bit sad at the same time.
Marcello, who was kneeling on the ground with his face covered in blood, actually smiled: "Haha, I don't think what happened today is planned by you. Can you tell me whose hands I fell into?"
