The villain's goal is to save the heroine

Of course, this is actually a rather obvious trap. If it were a living Fitch, he might not fall for it, but for the undead Fitch, he doesn't have the brains for it!

So there is a saying that goes, "I am not afraid of being alive, so I don't have to worry about being dead"!

In short, accompanied by the screams of the undead, the awakened corpses finally stopped moving and fell down one after another.

The only trouble right now is probably the Undead Augustus.

However, under the holy light of Latia, even if the headless knight can beat two, three or four Lynns, without holy resistance, no matter how powerful he is, it will be fake. Next, we just need to tear this guy apart!

"Well done, dear Miss Saint." Lin En walked back to Latia and said.

In the beginning, he was actually quite angry because the other party acted on his own, but the cooperation just now made Lin En feel a kind of tacit understanding, and this kind of joy from the heart was really useful!

Perhaps because she had successfully chosen the correct answer, Latiya smiled happily: "Thank you for the compliment, dear Mr. Lin~"

Ahhh, this feeling...is really good!

Of course, now is not the time to be complacent. As the saying goes, delay leads to changes. If we can clip such a powerful wing before Lavinica takes action, the result will definitely be a huge profit!

No matter what, the ending is good.

"Now as long as I destroy his armor, I can purify it directly, right?" Lin En asked with a restrained expression.

Seeing this, Latiya also put away her smile and nodded, saying, "I think it's okay, but..."

"what happened?"

Miss Saint frowned: "Mr. Lin, this barrier... has not dissipated yet."

Chapter 313: Terrifying Ghost Hand, Unexpected Support

The barrier hasn't dissipated yet?

Lin En came to his senses and looked around. He found that the fog that was shrouding the surroundings had not dissipated. It was so foggy that he could not see any further.

At the same time, the ground was still covered in gray soil, looking like a cemetery, with no signs of recovery.

All this shows that the power supporting the barrier still exists and they are still under siege!

This is strange.

The Undead Fitch has a weird growth and its physical properties have decreased.

The necromancer Augustus is the simplest form of necromancy. His body has been liberated and his physical properties have soared, but correspondingly, his magical properties in life have completely returned to zero.

In other words, the only one who could create the barrier was the Undead Fitch, not the Headless Horseman. Theoretically, as long as the Undead Fitch was eliminated, it should have dissipated!

嗏

Just as Latia said, the barrier still existed strangely.

Judging from the corpses falling down, Fitch's undead power should have disappeared, and the Dullahan doesn't have that ability. In other words...

There's a third terrifying undead spirit in this barrier?!

This conclusion immediately made Lin En alert!

The fact was, they were now sabotaging the witch priest's plan. If it was the undead who created the barrier, it would be fine. But what if it was Lavinica herself...

"What...what should we do, Mr. Lynn?"

Perhaps thinking of that possibility, Latia's tone became a little serious.

However, Lin En just shook his head and said: "No matter what, we must purify the Dullahan first, otherwise we will have another enemy."

It's a blessing, not a curse, but it's a curse that cannot be avoided.

Instead of worrying about the problem, it is better to eliminate the immobilized enemies first!

Of course, Lynn did not choose to approach the Headless Horseman this time.

The branches of the sacred tree have the ability to multiply infinitely. If they are embedded into the armor at any position, they can split into several attacks, which are enough to dismantle the opponent under the holy light.

Since there may still be potential enemies, sticking together is undoubtedly the most important thing at this time!

Then, Lin En casually took out a branch, imbued it with wind magic, and prepared to snipe the Dullahan from a distance, but at this moment...

"Swish!"

Suddenly, the ground beneath his feet seemed to move, making a small muffled sound.

In fact, neither the wriggling nor the tiny sounds attracted anyone's attention. At least if Lin En was still in the mindset of a great victory, he probably wouldn't notice such trivial details.

However, thinking that there might be potential enemies within the barrier, Lin En's vigilance became full again, and he also sensed the things under his feet.

"What's wrong, Mr. Lin?" Latiya was a little surprised to see Lin suddenly standing there in a daze.

However, after carefully feeling the things under his feet, his face suddenly changed. Without saying a word, he picked up Latiya and jumped back!

And the next second...

"boom!"

A pale ghost hand suddenly grabbed out from the ground!

It was a hideous creature that resembled a human hand. Its arm was thicker than a human thigh, extending nearly a meter above the ground, without any joints.

Perhaps because it failed to catch its prey, it was twitching at this moment, its fingers dancing irregularly and grabbing around frantically, like a pot of boiling water!

However, this is not over yet.

The first ghost hand that emerged from Lin En's feet was just the beginning. After that, one ghost hand after another emerged from the soil like mushrooms after rain, and spread around like a virus!

Some of these ghost hands could stretch out two or three meters, their huge, ferocious palms sending chills down one's spine. Others were like young, childlike hands, spread all over the ground, making one's scalp tingle.

And such a change happened in just a few seconds.

As soon as Lin En and Latiya landed, the scene before them had turned into a world of ghost hands. In the mist, pale hands, big and small, seemed to be swaying in the wind, and demons were dancing wildly. Just looking at it was terrifying!

"What...what is this?"

Lin En looked at the unfolding horrific scene in horror, holding Latia and backing away step by step.

This is also a scene that Lin En has never seen in the game.

Or at least scenes that have never been shown.

He only felt that his san value was constantly decreasing. For a moment he was shocked by the scene and his mind became blank.

"I... I don't know..." Latia couldn't help but grab Lin En's clothes when she saw this. "There's no relevant record in the church, and this is the first time I've seen such a thing. But one thing is certain, this is definitely not a product of nature. I don't sense any malice from them, but they don't seem to be manipulated. It feels... It feels like an instinctive shell. It's very dangerous... I think it's best for us not to try to fight..."

In fact, Lin En knew it better than anyone else without Latiya telling him.

His high-level perception told him that those ghost hands were not just weird, but also had a beauty of numerical strength. It would probably not be easy to destroy them physically!

only…

“Although I really want to do this, but…”

He looked behind him, and at the same time, an even more bizarre scene appeared!

At some point, they seemed to be standing at the center of symmetry, with the two of them as the symmetry points, and the same picture appeared on both sides!

Ghost hands emerged from the dark soil simultaneously and grabbed around frantically. Every detail and every movement was exactly the same!

At this point, they can either go forward or retreat, but unfortunately, neither of them is proficient in the barrier and has no idea what is happening in front of them!

and!

Time waits for no one…

In the previous and next pictures, the ghost hands on both sides kept growing from the ground, and the ghost hands on both sides kept approaching them, coming towards them like waves, as if they wanted to devour them completely!

Is this the difference in rank?

Of course, it was impossible for Lin En to surrender on the spot. His face looked a little ugly, but there was no despair at all.

Yes, actually he has another plan!

It’s very simple. Since we can’t defeat them, why not just hide in the “Divine Tree Space”?

It's just that someone is waiting at the door, but everything will be fine during the day, right?

He was very glad that he had not opened and closed the door to the other space at random because of his busy schedule. Otherwise, considering the cooling time, how could he have any last resort?

At this moment, seeing that the situation has become irreversible like an avalanche, Lin En is ready to play his last trump card, but at this moment...

"Oh!"

"Click——"

A sound like breaking glass rang out from the side. Before the two could react to what was happening, another voice rang out:

"Come out quickly! I can't hold on for much longer!!"

Lin En glanced at the broken barrier and saw the useless old man in the game.

Herman!

Although no one knew why he suddenly appeared here, he did successfully use his giant sword to open a gap that continued to close. Looking out from the gap, there were medieval-style buildings outside, with stone-paved main trunks extending to the dimly lit area.

Oh, beautiful Siena!

Seeing this, Lin En fled desperately without saying a word. After the mirrored ghost hands overlapped, they began to sew up the axis of symmetry like a zipper, chasing him relentlessly!

Chapter 314 The Mystery of Hermann

Late at night, a main road in Siena.

"Oh!"

A pale ghost hand suddenly stretched out from the space, and it slapped the ground, causing the entire ground to sink. If the two figures in front had not rolled fast enough, they would have been skinned alive if not killed!

However, before the two of them could even catch their breath, the uncle beside them shouted, "Run!"

After shouting, he didn't wait for the two to say anything and ran out without looking back.

Obviously, escaping the barrier does not mean safety.

After all, the purpose of the barrier is just to trap the two people so that they can be caught in a trap. The basic logic is to kill him and Latiya!

Although the huge ghost hand retracted, countless tiny ghost hands immediately stretched out like tentacles. If someone planned to chat in such a place for a while, there was probably something wrong with their brain!

But Lin En would certainly not do such a stupid thing. Without even thinking, he almost picked up the girl beside him and followed Herman out again!

At this time, the advantages of high levels also emerged.

If people like Latia and Vivian were allowed to move on their own, they would probably be caught even if they escaped from the barrier.

However, Lin En's level was high enough, so he could run fast enough, and soon escaped from this area safely!

During the leap, Lin En couldn't help but look back twice, and only then did he realize that they were at the entrance to the "Forest of the Sacred Trees"...

No, or rather, because Lin En has not yet moved the gate to the other dimension, this street is still the entrance to the "Forest of the Sacred Tree"!

"Forest of the Sacred Trees"...

Thinking of the situation inside that alien space, Lin En suddenly broke out in a sweat!

What is the "Forest of the Sacred Trees"?

Hundreds of thousands of people were sacrificed there!

Even though the Screaming Tree had been mostly burned by Cecilia, if we were to look at it from the Undead's perspective...

Is there any place with more resentment than that place?

Are there any emotions more poignant than those that leave only fear, despair, and pain? !

Thinking of this, Lynn looked at Hermann who was still running in front of him with a serious expression.

Come to think of it, they had seen this guy the moment they left the Sacred Forest. And not only that, but later, while tracking Claire and Cecilia, they had seen him again in that strange, continuously blocked area...

Is this just a coincidence?

To be honest, for a moment, he even suspected that this guy might be the priest of the Witch Cult!

But then he thought again, if Herman was really the priest, he would have killed them, so why did he suddenly want to save them?

in other words…

The loser in this game is actually more capable than he imagined?

Lynn suddenly felt that the character of Herman was also a bit of a mystery.
