The Soul Eater looked at the intact Yiyi and pondered for a long time.
It's strange, the feeling is obviously right.
Judging from the texture of her flesh, this should be an ordinary bronze-level swordsman...
But after hearing the shouts of Annan and Salvatore, it immediately realized something due to its superior intelligence level than ordinary adults.
——Yes, the curse cannot be free of cost.
This is especially true for young humans at the bronze level.
I understand. She may have used some kind of harsh spell to turn back her time...
but no matter--
In the Soul Eater's dark gray vertical pupils, the triple eyelids closed the innermost layer again.
It turned back and bit its tail again, stretching it straight.
Just kill it again.
Anyway, it’s effortless to kill——
At this time, Annan also saw Salvatore preparing to use the Philosopher's Stone from the Creator's perspective, and the Soul Eater preparing to attack Yiyi again.
He was a little surprised by Salvatore's decisiveness.
In Annan's impression, Salvatore was not a person with such strong mobility...
In Annan's original prediction, Salvatore should hesitate for a few rounds, and then when Yiyi died for the second or third time, he realized that he could kill her and the Soul Eater when Yiyi was attacked.
Attack together.
——But this attack must be ineffective.
The combo that Salvatore used to instantly kill the big fat man took nearly half a minute to read including the steel needle.
If you want to attack the Soul Eater suddenly, the attack will definitely not be effective.
So Annan is already prepared——
At the moment when Soul Eater was about to leave Lin Yiyi and turn around to attack Salvatore.
He'll be injected with the Philosopher's Stone - and immediately unleash Frost Sword on the Soul Eater.
Due to the curse, Annan's pain sensation is very insignificant. Therefore, Annan can still retain a certain degree of combat effectiveness after the Philosopher's Stone expires.
This is why Annan has two copies of the Philosopher's Stone, but Salvatore, the maker, only holds one.
...However, if Salvatore had planned to use the Philosopher's Stone, the plan would have to be slightly adjusted.
After all, Annan couldn't directly say to Salvatore: "Pretend to read a note and interrupt, and I'll open the door."
As a superior summon in the realm of silence, the Soul Eater can understand human speech...
Now it's up to Annan to create opportunities for Salvatore!
I can only trust the senior for now.
As long as he uses the Philosopher's Stone to temporarily gain gold-level strength... and can exert 70% of the strength of the silver-level great wizard Benjamin, that will be enough!
If Salvatore is cheated, Annan can only use the Philosopher's Stone to fill the position immediately. If something unexpected happens in the future, Annan will only have one chance to use the Philosopher's Stone... and he must take care of it thoroughly.
Salvatore lost his fighting ability.
But if Salvatore can succeed, then Annan's strength can continue to be hidden. He can survive until the end of the instance as a theater-watching NPC with almost no consumption...
"One by one, left side!"
Moments before the Soul Eater launched his attack, Annan shouted loudly: "Old Goose, protect me——"
Maybe it's because of the cooperation from the previous copy.
Delicious Wind Goose and Yiyi obeyed Annan's command without hesitation.
Lin Yiyi immediately turned slightly to the left.
She just happened to see the black wheel that was like a wheel with thorns, flying silently and diagonally towards her——
She subconsciously lifted the stick and held it tightly with both hands.
--Ah.
Soul Eater was somewhat disdainful of this.
Want to use this stick... to stop it?
It doesn't need to deliberately attack, it can be chopped into pieces just by passing by!
But what the Soul Eater doesn't know is.
When Lin Yiyi saw it and held the stick tightly with both hands.
Lin Yiyi's real curse was triggered——
[When holding the weapon tightly with both hands, you can see all attack trajectories that are about to hit "you" in the next three seconds; and after failing to parry, you will not enter an unbalanced state or fall to the ground]
[You cannot move when using this ability; the attacker must be within sight]
The curse called [Front Parry] can provide Lin Yiyi with powerful physical dominance ability.
And the short-term ability to predict the future——
In Lin Yiyi's field of vision, everything seemed to slow down and turn into a kind of grayish white.
And in front of her, there was a red afterimage.
There were countless afterimages of black blade wheels flying in the air in strange arcs, flying from the front in a strange spiral trace, piercing his head and heart diagonally downwards, and throwing his entire left arm and half of his ribs away.
At this moment, the end of the red afterimage is being filled with gray at a very fast speed.
Lin Yiyi could only make the last decision in this slow world.
I'm afraid I can't stop it.
But she should be able to stay a little longer——
Lin Yiyi's feet could not move.
She could only use all her strength to tilt her upper body to the right.
In this slow world like bullet time, her movements are extremely difficult and slow. But if converted into proportion to her speed in reality, it is undoubtedly much faster.
——Because this is the speed at which she "uses all her strength" to dodge!
In a normal battle, it is impossible for a person to evade without any reservation at the first opportunity!
The moment before the gray that represented reality finally caught up with the red afterimage and almost hit her.
Lin Yiyi suddenly felt tired in her head.
She was ejected into that strange state.
But her upper body had strayed far enough—
The blow that could have split her head and heart into pieces at the same time could only smash her wooden stick and the forelimb of her left arm into pieces.
According to Annan's settings, intense pain will disappear instantly after reaching the threshold. So after the limb was amputated, Lin Yiyi was surprised to realize that she was not dead!
Yes, although her left arm flew out, her health is still 35%!
Does this mean that if it doesn't cause severe limbs... one of its attacks can't even hit half of my health?
Although she was almost instantly killed when they met, Lin Yiyi felt a strong sense of confidence in her heart.
——It can be done!
I can handle it!
"I need stronger weapons!"
Lin Yiyi dragged her broken arm backwards quickly, and immediately shouted loudly to Annan and Salvatore.
Although she didn't know if it would work or not, she still decided to give it a try...
When he noticed that his confident attack was narrowly dodged by Lin Yiyi, Soul Eater was startled.
It was immediately caught in the evil fire——
It hesitated for a moment, whether to turn around and kill first the most dangerous human being who could see through its stealth, or the weakest human being who had already broken off his own arm——
It finally decided that it would first kill this human who was still jumping around arrogantly after losing his limbs!
It did not use the wheel-like cutting attack again this time.
That's its mowing attack designed to deal with large unarmored units.
As the Soul Eater closed both eyelids.
Its body straightened up and it raised its sharp triangular head - like a speeding javelin, it quickly attacked Lin Yiyi!
It was an attack without warning, like a comet.
The charge of the invisible Soul Eater is completely undetectable and impossible to dodge.
Almost as soon as she heard the sound, Lin Yiyi's chest and abdomen were instantly penetrated by it.
Her whole body was broken into two pieces, a large amount of blood mist exploded behind her, and strong winds roared out to both sides.
Fortunately, her back was to the road and not to someone else's house - even so, the T-shaped intersection more than 80 meters behind her was directly hit by the Soul Eater with a big hole!
Then Lin Yiyi was reborn from the same place...
She called again: "Are there any weapons?!"
"then!"
Salvatore did not hesitate to throw a hard solid alloy steel rod that he transformed towards Lin Yiyi.
The steel rod made a whining sound in the air...but fortunately Salvatore's strength was too weak, so Lin Yiyi fished it out of the air and caught it easily.
The moment she held the stick in both hands, her face looked frozen.
She fell back without hesitation - and then the Soul Eater came flying towards her again, still facing her chest and abdomen. So this attack failed again.
After it landed, it left long traces on the ground.
Then I closed three layers of eye mask.
Then it suddenly disappeared and moved instantly above Lin Yiyi again.
He slashed his tail vertically towards Lin Yiyi who was lying on the ground, intending to cut her in half!
