Chapter 177 Assassination(1/2)
In the Enoak Desert, the floating city of Sultanza is quietly floating over this dark cloud-like sea all year round.
Once upon a time, this place was called the thirst sandbank, a basin that stretched in all directions for miles and was also a saline-alkali area with extreme moisture.
With the return of the Ghost City, some powerful magic is cast here.
On this poorest land in Torrell's history, a lake that stretches for thousands of square kilometers is created, clear and cold.
On the north shore of the Sea of Shadows, there is a chessboard-like field composed of green leaves, yellow wheat and brown earth, rich in color.
The desert storm that engulfed the land had stopped, a bright moon hung in the sky, and the silver moonlight shone on the fields, and some seemed so fresh and pure.
The quiet night sky, the smooth flowing sea water, the cool and gentle breeze, everything here seems to explain to the world the peace of the ghost kingdom shrouded in the shadows.
However, in somewhere in the most magnificent ghost tower in Sultansa, a battle was taking place that was enough to change the situation in the entire floating city.
In the small room, venom shining with a faint green luster was filled with a disgusting stench, sprinkling down like dense raindrops.
It was the foul smell that triggered the magical defense of a certain triggering technique in the room, allowing Terramante, the Supreme King of the Ghost City, to escape this fatal blow.
I saw countless deadly venoms spewed out of the mouths of the huge snake-shaped creatures and dripped to the ground, making a hissing sound, turning into a foul-smelling green steam that filled the entire room.
The Supreme King Terramant, whose defensive barrier flashed around his body, moved backwards, calmly raised his hands, and quickly gestured a series of complex patterns with his ten fingers.
I saw his words shouting at the beast covered in the shadows, which seemed meaningless, but contained huge power.
In an instant, the hot flames reflected the whole room red, the high temperature explosion even burned Terramant's eyebrows, and the snake-shaped creature flashing from the shadow also screamed in pain.
The bright fire instantly dispelled the shadows surrounding the monster, revealing the outline of a skeleton creature.
I saw that it was black all over, with circles of crimson rings distributed in each other. If I ignored the female head with disheveled hair and dark scales, it looked like the skeleton of a large giant python.
"It turns out to be the ghost Naga in the Shadow Plane!" As a spellcaster who has lived for thousands of years, Terramant naturally recognized the identity of the monster in an instant.
He stared at the shadow Naga with a serious expression, "A normal ghost Naga cannot break through the defense of the floating city and the ghost tower. So you must have been instructed by that person."
There is another sentence Terramante did not say: Not only ordinary ghost Naga cannot break through, but even high-level legendary powerful people who are comparable to their own strength cannot break through.
The reason why this creature from the Shadow Plane was able to easily break through his defenses woven by the Shadow Magic Net to assassinate him is self-evident.
Before the shadow Naga could speak, the orange fireball quickly disappeared from the target under the call of Terramante, turning into thick smoke, burning violently.
In a moment, the rough and spiked outer skin of the Ghost Shadow Naga had turned black.
Terramant took three steps back and kept his distance from him.
However, when he met the portrait of the lost lady Shar, which he was only symbolically hanging on the wall, Naga, who had already put out the flames around him, suddenly burst into a strange smile.
"It hurts..." it hissed the letter, sounding like gravel scratching the steel.
In an instant, Terramant suddenly noticed a shadow energy bursting out from the portrait, which actually made his blood start to cool quickly.
This terrifying energy made his body stiff in place without being controlled and unable to move at all.
As a ghost who has been transformed for thousands of years, Terramante has never been retaliated by shadow energy, but now it has caused him to directly develop a power without resistance.
It can be seen from this that the assassin from the shadow plane was obviously prepared.
I saw the cold murderous intent floating in the cold snake eyes of Youying Naga, sliding forward like a sharp arrow, scraping out huge gullies burned by the heat of the Fireball Technique on the expensive wooden floor.
As it presses step by step, the venom that shines with a faint green luster still drips from the corner of its mouth.
When it quickly appeared in front of the Supreme King Teramante, who could not move his body, suddenly with the most extreme power, he opened his gloomy mouth surrounded by shadow energy. Four huge gray-yellow poisonous fangs appeared in Teramante's sight in a striking and fatal manner.
The poisonous fangs are too huge to keep their mouths closed.
When the venom fell on the floor, it made a creepy hissing sound, and all the defensive arrays and traps in the room were corroded beyond recognition by leaping spell aura.
At this moment, a fireball released by the Supreme King Terramante, who had finally accumulated some strength, suddenly wrapped in a slender tail flame and galloped past, igniting the portrait of the lost lady on the wall, and suddenly burned a gloomy black flame.
As the portrait burned violently, Terramant quickly gained control of his body.
Terramante thought, and a magic dagger shining with dazzling light floated in his palm.
Seeing this terrifying equipment, Gousha Naga shrank back the ferocious Pang, and then began to brew his own venom and spit it out.
The magic dagger whizzed through the air and shot towards the shadow Naga at a speed beyond the crossbow arrow.
As the sound of flesh and blood ripped into Naga's hard black scales, Naga screamed in pain, and the venom spurted out of its mouth, making a disgusting gurgling sound. The deadly liquid soaked on its still smoking body, making it scream even more heart-wrenchingly again.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content below! Immediately afterwards, the magic dagger hit the control of Terramante, and failed to reach the golden hilt, and was inserted into the half of the body of the shadow Naga twelve-foot-long body.
"Turn!" Terramante thought, and the shadow Naga looked down.
The magic dagger shining with a dazzling luster swirled and twisted on Naga's wound, making it look frightened due to the severe pain.
This time it stopped screaming, but insulted Terramante with a strange language, perhaps the sentence must have been a terrible insult in some dark pit that Naga and its tribe called home.
In a moment, the shadow Naga began to quickly pass by the shadow energy surrounding her body under the attack of the magic dagger, revealing the gloomy black skeletons.
"Turn!" Terramant shouted again, flashed to Naga and took another step back, hitting the small bedside table. The bedside table fell down, a glass of water broke on the ground, and the water mixed into the pool of blood on the floor.
The blade turned again, and the shadow energy covering the body of the shadow Naga was about to eject like blood.
However, facing this even more tragic attack, Goushadow Naga did not scream this time.
It lowered its head and bit the magic dagger inserted into its body with its jagged fangs.
Although the pain of pulling out the blade made its snake body tremble again, the magic dagger successfully escaped from its wound, and a shadow energy splashed like a torrent of blood.
Seeing that his attack had lost its effect on Shadow Naga, Terramant's expression subsided.
Obviously, since his enemy wants to kill him, he must have made complete preparations, how could he easily escape?
Thinking of this, the Supreme King Terramante began to consider his own escape plan.
Just as he was thinking about his way to escape, the shadow Naga twisted the snake's body again and shot over like a sharp arrow.
Seeing this, his eyes turned cold. The magic dagger that was discarded by Naga on the ground was suddenly guided by a magic energy and then slashed up at high speed towards Youying Naga's extended neck.
A dazzling magical light flashed by, and the shadow Naga's head jumped out like a ball, bounced on the ground twice before stopping.
I saw its snake body flapping and shaking, and the gloomy shadow energy filled the simple furnishing room.
"Is this dead?" Feeling this scene, Terramante felt a little unbelievable.
Unexpectedly, a shadow Naga who can be immune to most of her shadow spells was killed by herself so dramatically.
"Terramante?"
A woman who came from nowhere stood behind the twitching Naga's body.
Her voice was completely opposite to Naga's, full of vitality and rhythm.
I saw her holding a slender sword in her hand. When she held it, it would sag and shape it, and when she waved it, it would whip through the air like a whip.
"Long time no see, Terramante, the supreme king of Sultanza." She said softly, "I didn't expect that we would meet in this way in the end."
The scorching flames, the splattering shadow energy and the foul-stenching poison permeated the room, causing Terramant's consciousness to unconsciously begin to be affected.
The woman began to walk towards him, her gait was both cautious and confident.
"I want..." said Terratman, "I should..."
The whistling sound of the whip blade breaking through the air made him say the next sentence without waiting in full.
At the last moment, Terramante Tanshul, the Supreme King of the Ghost City, only felt his head fall on the floor in the room.
Hundreds of miles away from the Sea of Shadows, Shadow Mage Hajjhona stood in front of a huge glass jar, filled with thick green semi-liquid, which was squirming, as if it had vitality.
"That's great." Hajjhona muttered to himself, turning around in the messy laboratory, slowly walking towards the True Knowledge Crystal Ball.
“It looks like everything goes as smoothly as planned.”
All the actions of Shadow Naga in the Ghost Tower of the Supreme King Terramante appeared in his mind.
The Supreme King of the Ghost City is already dead, so there is no unexpected factor that can prevent Ms. Lost from replacing the magic goddess Mistera Magic Net.
"This is such a perfect plan." Hajjhona came back to his senses from the prophecy of True Knowledge Crystal, and not only sighed, "It's just a pity, it's really a pity. I didn't even know the plan that Terramant had secretly planned for thousands of years, and he just died."
He looked back at the huge glass jar, as big as a house, and there was a beech tree shining with golden light.
The shadow energy that looked like substance was corroding the beech tree transformed from the golden scroll at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Hajjhona could see something solid and rough, scratching along the inner wall of the glass, and then disappearing into the thick shaded energy.
"It's almost over," he murmured to the energy in the tank. "It's almost over."
The floating city of Sultansa, inside the ghost tower of the Supreme King Terramante.
The black veil covered her face, and the beautiful and slender body, Eliriel, whose slim body was covered by a black robe, turned Terramante's broken head with the toes of her high heels, so that she could see his face.
He was so handsome that she frowned. Destroying things would never bring her any pleasure, especially destruction of beautiful things.
She took out a black bag made of unknown materials.
She knew that Terramante, the Supreme King of the Ghost City, could not be killed by herself so simply, and the function of this magical dimension bag was to completely isolate the hope that the Supreme King would be resurrected.
She put away her sword, squatted down, and tiptoed backwards to avoid the blood on the floor.
"Sorry." A voice sounded behind her.
She stopped, without intending to use her whip sword to stab the uninvited guest, nor did she think about running away.
She heard the sound, she was very good at distinguishing sounds.
