Ring of Fate

Chapter 694 "Chasers"

The blazing white flames quickly dissipated. Lumian turned his back to "Siso" Tewanako and looked at the crumbling "Guardian" more than ten meters away, and smiled softly:
"Before, I had to rely on the strength of the team to defeat you, but now, I can kill you alone."

This is said to "Siso".

"Hisoka", who was lying on the ground with his consciousness gradually becoming blurred, heard these words and instinctively wanted to clench his hands, but he had no strength left.

A hoarse sound came from his throat, his pupils dilated, and he couldn't regain focus.

He regretted choosing to transform into a demon instead of a wraith when he turned around to face Lumian Lee. Otherwise, he could use the "Wraith Scream" to interrupt the other party's attempt to play the black bone flute. But there was nothing he could do about it. He could only sense the malice and the source of the malice, but had no way of knowing the specific details. In this case, considering that Lumian Lee could make bullets, fireballs and other attacks have electric shock effects and could effectively target weaknesses, demonization was obviously more universal than wraith transformation and could prevent more types of accidents.

As for why he didn't condense a large number of sulfur fireballs and launch them over, pretending that everyone was going to die together, it was because "Siso" felt that there was a long distance between the two sides. By the time he condensed more than ten or twenty sulfur fireballs and let them fly near Lumian Lee, the other party had already finished playing the game. He could use the "teleportation" ability to calmly avoid the cluster bombardment of sulfur fireballs, and spells such as "Filthy Words" were limited by distance.

Excluding all possibilities, at the time, "Siso" Tewanaco could only use "Emotional Shock" followed by "Desire Detonation" to target Lumian Lee's weaknesses, hoping that after both sides suffered serious injuries, the speed of recovery would be similar, giving him a chance to make new responses.

However, Lumian Li was still shaking, his face full of pain and blood, his eyes were not normal and there was a little confusion left, but he endured all kinds of negative influences and completed a very precise range bombing with an electric shock effect first, which caused him to suffer new injuries and fell into a paralyzed state for a short time.

“Hehe…”

"Siso" Tewanaku tried his best to lose control and drag Lumian Lee to death, but his life had already reached its limit. His vision was occupied by deep darkness. His consciousness sank into the depths of darkness with resentment, hatred and pain, and merged with it.

The huge demon's body twitched a few times and then became completely motionless.

"Hisoka's" last hope of resurrection was shattered.

He was completely dead.

As Lumian spoke, he pulled out his revolver and aimed at the "Guardian" not far away.

The "Guardian", whose emotions were in turmoil and whose thoughts were scattered, subconsciously condensed a huge sword of light, knelt on one knee, and inserted it in front of him.

It combined with the earth, as if forming an unbreakable invisible wall.

As a gravekeeper who was integrated with the dream projection, this "guardian" was unable to mount an effective defense against the "Melody of Hate", and his companions, the "Spirit Wizards" and "Requiem Masters" had not anticipated such an attack, and were unable to pull him and other companions into the dream in time to avoid hearing the melody directly. He could only rely on the strength of his body and soul to withstand the explosion of desires and emotions.

This is a life-threatening blow to the extraordinary people with dream projection.

Afterwards, before the gravekeeper could recover, he was hit directly by a blazing white fireball wrapped in electric light, and exploded on his body.

That is to say, the gift he received was "Guardian", otherwise he would have become the straw to be harvested like his companions, and would not be able to make a certain defense purely by instinct.

Lumian's green eyes seemed to be tinged with a hint of iron black, and he pulled the trigger while standing.

boom!boom!
Two yellow bullets, with blazing white flames and silver lightning, hit a certain point on the invisible wall in succession.

Rumble!
The invisible wall, which was already somewhat unstable, collapsed with a loud bang, and the "guardian" watched helplessly as a blazing white spear wrapped in electric light flew towards him, pierced through his chest, and flew away.

Another "harvest", another digestion.

The "Guardian" used up the last bit of his consciousness and broke the giant sword of light in his hand into countless tiny pieces.

These fragments of light turned into a hurricane, sweeping in all directions.

Chased by the storm of light, the blazing white flame spear flew twenty or thirty meters and finally fell down.

The firelight faded, and Lumian, wearing a white shirt, black vest, dark trousers, and a golden straw hat, straightened his back.

Behind him, the bright and terrifying storm of light gradually subsided, and a thick layer of water appeared on the ground. The bodies of the dead gravekeepers and "Siso" Tewanaku were broken and scattered.

Affected by the "Song of Hate", Devarho's injuries flared up and became extremely serious. He glanced at the corpses on the ground, then looked at Lumian who was facing him sideways in the distance. His already pale face became even uglier.

What's happening here?
Is that human being?
Dewaho, who subconsciously had the thought of revenge due to the blow, quickly gave up the idea, let the sulfur-smelling blood he spat out ignite with blue flames, and quickly retreated into the jungle.

He is going to escape from here!
Anyway, he couldn't provide any help to the human skin that the Grand Duke had transformed through the ritual. There was no point in staying in the black tomb area except to put himself in more and greater dangers.

Lumian ignored the fleeing Devaho. He was in very poor physical condition but still had plenty of spiritual energy. He transformed himself into a blazing white flaming spear and flew over a distance of dozens or nearly a hundred meters before landing next to Lugano, Amandine and the others.

Although these four extraordinary people were in a coma just now and did not directly hear the melody played by the "Melody of Hate", the impact they suffered was very minor and they just had a nightmare. However, this nightmare still made them feel painful. Their expressions became distorted and they gradually woke up from their coma.

Seeing them open their eyes and regain their senses, Lumian directly ordered:
"You must evacuate this place immediately and go back to Tizamo Town to find a place to hide."

The battle in front of the Black Tomb was not something that Lugano and the others could get involved in. Lumian himself didn't dare to get close, so he planned to keep his four temporary teammates away from here.

He had agreed to let Camus and Rhea come along because he thought that the former's abilities such as "spiritual piercing" and the latter's lightning arrows could effectively cooperate with him to deal with "Sisso's" dream projections. Against Reaza and others, Amandine's forced dream entry would also play a significant role. And they had to follow her to get close to the black tomb without being attacked by the invisible figure. Who knew that "Sisso" showed a fighting ability far beyond Father Kali, and this place was not closed and had no preset traps, so that Camus, Amandine and others not only failed to help, but instead "hurt" each other and became a burden.

Recalling the two battles of capturing the real "Siso" and dealing with Father Kali, Lumian vaguely understood a truth:
Sometimes it is stronger to rely on a team, and sometimes it is more appropriate to go it alone. Different situations and different enemies cannot be treated and handled with the same standards, otherwise it is easy to suffer losses.

At this moment, Lumian remembered what Emperor Roselle once said, and what his sister Aurore had explained to him:

There is no fixed posture in military operations, just as there is no fixed form in flowing water.

"Can we go back to Tizamo Town? Can I too?" Lugano was pleasantly surprised, and instinctively stretched out his remaining hand, pressing the flickering light on the wound on Lumian's body.

——As a "doctor", Lugano cannot directly treat the patient's internal injuries. He must open the cavity and touch the injured part, which is equivalent to performing a surgical operation.

Lumian nodded and said:

"Yes, but you have to be under the dual gaze of Camus and Ria."

He himself planned to stay for a while to see if he could help Ivelista Eggers, a member of the "Temperance Faction" of the "Fool" Church.

This is what the Minor Arcana of the Tarot Club is supposed to do.

Of course, Lumian would definitely not enter the area in front of the black tomb, as that would only cause him to die without knowing how. He was thinking about whether he could influence the corresponding divine objects by influencing Reaza and others, or do something with the help of the golden mask on "Siso's" body.

At this time, Dewaho, who had just arrived in Tizamo Town tonight, had already entered the jungle and returned to the way he came.

He gathered up his remaining strength and ran away.

While running, Dewaho suddenly stopped and looked doubtfully at the bend in the path hidden by trees.

Under the dim crimson moonlight, a short figure walked over there.

The figure was a little boy of about seven or eight years old, wearing blue pajamas with yellow stars on them and a nightcap of the same style. His chubby face and the short yellow hair that was not covered by the hat were covered with cream, blood, biscuit crumbs, cake crumbs and other things. His brown eyes revealed an intense hunger and desire.

At the side of his mouth, a colorful, cold, slippery poisonous snake tail kept twitching and shaking, and was swallowed into his mouth section by section.

The little boy's cheeks puffed up and he chewed hard.

The next second, he saw Dewaho.

Dewaho's mind was suddenly filled with intense, terrifying malice.

…………

Having obtained permission, Lugano was about to call Camus, Rhea and Amandine to return to the town of Tizamo when he suddenly heard a scream full of fear coming from the jungle.

They stopped immediately.

A few seconds later, a nearly three-meter-tall black monster with curved goat horns came running out of the jungle in the direction of Tizamo Town and ran towards the black tomb in panic.

That man just now? He is also a "devil"... Is he a minion of the devil of the North family? Is the green-eyed man formed by human skin the power projected into the "Dream Festival" by the devil of the North family? Lumian looked at the dark jungle behind the devil and suddenly had a bad premonition.

He made a prompt decision and said to Lugano, Amandine and others:

"catch me!"

Lugano was very skilled. He jumped back to Lumian and grabbed his arm.

Camus, Rhea and Amandine were all stunned for a moment, imitating Lugano and performing similar actions.

The five people disappeared from the spot and reappeared near the body of "Hisoka".

As soon as Amandine's body was outlined, her eyes suddenly widened.

Her eyes fixed, and she spoke to Lumian in a low voice:

"That, that figure appeared again..."
