Roxanne stared at the black-hatted gentleman in front of her warily.
She had originally planned to wait and see, waiting for Qiao Ke and the Red Apple Church to be both badly damaged, before taking action to deal with them...but she didn't expect the other party to end the battle so quickly and come straight towards her.
"Hey, Qiao Ke, why don't you wear that black armor? Is it because the battle just now consumed too much of your strength, or is the cost of using it too high?"
Roxanne laughed.
She believed that the Red Apple Church was not a weakling, and even if Qiao Ke won, it must have taken him a lot of effort, so she still had the advantage.
Although Qiao Ke had a great record in battle and had once "killed the incarnation of a saint", Roxanne had not seen it with her own eyes. It was also said that he had teamed up with the "Ferry Sword" Byers to accomplish this incredible feat.
Judging from the fact that Byers has now been promoted to a high position, Qiao Ke was most likely not the main force at that time. The other party only played a "supporting" role at most... Most people in the mysterious field like to exaggerate the facts. Roxanne does not think that Qiao Ke is qualified to be called the "Obsidian Twin Knights".
No matter how talented he is, he is just a Sequence 6 Transcendent.
The most important point is that as the leader of the Black Knife Killer Group, Roxanne has enough confidence in her own abilities.
The bishop's head in Chen Lun's hand had been burned to ashes and scattered. He smiled and shook his hands, too lazy to continue to flatter this woman.
"You think too much, Roxanne. It's simply because you don't deserve it."
"I don't deserve it? Hahaha..."
Roxanne thought she had hit the nail on the head, and her mocking laughter grew louder.
“No need to bluff anymore. I know everything… You fought alone against a senior Sequence 5 bishop of the Red Apple Church, plus five Sequence 6 priests. This record is amazing and even incredible to me. But there are not so many miracles in the mysterious realm. You must have paid a price that others can hardly imagine!”
She was not in a hurry to attack, but stood with her elbows folded, looking calm.
Her black knife killers were about to destroy those black puppets, and the scales of victory were gradually tilting towards her side. She wished that time could drag on as long as possible.
"Roxanne, I have always had a question, why do you think I am 'Joke'?"
Chen Lun asked curiously.
Roxanne still had a smile on her face.
"Take your time to guess. Maybe you won't know the truth even after you die."
"Did the 'Evening Tea Party' tell you that?"
Chen Lun said calmly.
Roxanne's tongue suddenly trembled.
How did he know?!
The fact that the Evening Tea Club secretly contacted the Black Knife Brotherhood to help them seize a seat in the Orthodox Church was only known to the top leaders... How did the other party, an outsider, know such a secret? !
Could it be that a traitor leaked the information? !
No! This is impossible!
So why…
whoosh whoosh whoosh!
Just as Roxanne was shocked, a spiral of "white snakes" suddenly bloomed in front of her!
Peng!
Relying on her profound combat experience and strong fighting instincts, she raised her right arm and temporarily transformed it into a large black tortoise-shell-shaped shield the size of a door panel.
With a muffled sound, blood oozed from the corner of Roxanne's mouth. She was pushed dozens of meters horizontally by the huge force and staggered to her feet. Although she raised her shield to block in time, the impact of the snake group was too strong, causing her some internal injuries.
"Despicable guy! How dare you attack me by surprise!"
Roxanne put down her shadow shield, wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, her face full of hatred.
Chen Lun retracted his pale hand and did not respond, but a look of regret appeared on his face.
It seemed that he felt regretful for not being able to take advantage of the opportunity to severely injure it.
Through the other party's reaction, he was able to confirm that the Dusk Tea Party had indeed begun in-depth cooperation with the Black Knife Brotherhood...
"Fuluoyin, go help Golov and the others and get rid of those black knife killers first."
Chen Lun whispered instructions to his companions.
Floin, Noah and Antonio all nodded in agreement.
"Undertaker, this is my first time fighting against a superhuman of this order. I hope you won't let me down, Roxanne."
Chen Lun chuckled and teleported in front of the other party with the silver sword in hand.
Immediately, a sword came down on the head!
Roxanne snorted coldly and immediately twisted her left arm. A mud-like shadow took shape into a pitch-black triangular blade, which, with a clang, blocked the silver sword's blow.
The two launched an impenetrable attack, leaving endless afterimages and clanging sounds.
Ding ding ding!
But because Chen Lun took the initiative, Roxanne took a head-on attack from the Pale Hand and suffered internal injuries. This series of fierce attacks put her at a disadvantage again and again.
"Damn..."
Blood flowed from the corner of Roxanne's mouth again. She didn't even have time to wipe it off and could only grit her teeth to deal with the continuous slashing. Qiao Ke's swordsmanship was extremely advanced. The angle of the sword was tricky, and the force was sometimes strong and sometimes weak, which was unpredictable.
What made her most uncomfortable was that a purple light began to rise from the silver sword. Every time she tried to block it, a force that could damage her soul would invade her, and she could not defend herself against it!
clang!
It was another parry. Roxanne's face was covered with blue veins because of the pain in her soul. She didn't want to go on like this. She gritted her teeth and swung her arms. The black blades condensed into a ball and then exploded, using the impact to push the opponent away.
At the same time, she disappeared into the shadows.
The shadow on the ground kept shrinking and finally disappeared into thin air.
Chen Lun stood there holding the silver sword and looked around. Roxanne had completely disappeared.
'This is the ability of Sequence 6 - Shadowless... It can erase its own shadow and achieve true concealment.'
whoosh!
Just at this moment.
Chen Lun pointed the silver sword at the ground, and suddenly a large mass of "black mud" appeared in the long shadow. It kept climbing along the palm of his sword-holding hand and tightly grabbed his right arm, making it difficult for him to move.
The "mud" bulged above and Roxanne's dark upper body slowly emerged. She had a hideous grin on her face and three pairs of shadow arms grew out from behind her. They transformed into swords, spears, swords, sticks and other weapons and attacked Chen Lun's head like a storm.
But Roxanne's attack missed.
Her expression changed slightly.
The black-hatted gentleman in front of him disappeared in the blink of an eye, leaving behind only a broken arm, which was caught by the "Shadow Coffin Mud" he had released... But the strange thing was that the broken arm did not bleed even a drop of blood, and it twisted on its own, slowly turning into a pale python.
A strong sense of danger came over me.
Roxanne acted decisively, threw the white python out of the "mud", and escaped as quickly as possible.
But it was too late.
boom!
The white python swelled and exploded, and countless bloods of decay fell on the shadow, corrupting it into an unstable whitish color.
"ah!"
Roxanne cried out in pain, and her entire body melted into a pool of liquid shadow and fell to the ground.
It was as if a spring had formed with her as the center, continuously emitting "shadow mud", gradually covering the entire ground within a radius of 100 meters.
The rest of the black knife killers and circus members who were fighting each other all tacitly withdrew from the area to avoid being affected.
Roxanne's voice, suppressed with anger, came from all directions:
"Joke, you slippery guy..."
Mid-air.
Chen Lun was standing in the air, looking down at the shadow area, secretly amazed.
"Is this the power of the undertaker? If we can't defeat this muddy shadow, we can't hurt her body... Even the self-detonation of the severed limb just now only destroyed a small part of the shadow, but she replenished it in time."
He thought to himself.
'Roxanne is experienced in combat and knows her own weaknesses very well. Once her shadow is defeated, she will immediately hide her body, making it impossible for people to find her real body... She will only reappear in the battle after her shadow is replenished. She handles the situation perfectly.'
Compared to the Bat-Wing Bishop of the Red Apple Church, Roxanne's ability in frontal combat may not be as good, but her adaptability and versatility are better.
If the two really fight, Chen Lun feels that Roxanne may have a better chance of winning.
No wonder she is so confident.
"I have roughly figured out the opponent's fighting style..."
Chen Lun gradually lost interest.
"Let's end it."
boom!
The "Shadow Lake" on the ground beneath his feet suddenly boiled, and a huge stream of shadow mud gushed out, turning into a giant guillotine more than ten meters long in mid-air, slashing straight towards him!
At the same time, countless strips of shadows weaved into a giant net, surrounding and covering Chen Lun from all directions, intercepting him and preventing him from escaping.
Chen Lun raised his eyebrows, looking slightly surprised.
The opponent displayed such a large-scale shadow control ability that he was stuck at the limit of his instant movement distance and could not escape... I don't know whether the opponent saw through his true colors or it was just a coincidence, but it still made him feel a little tricky.
Without entering the "Pale Stance", he would be cut in half if hit by the pitch-black guillotine... Although it would not be fatal, it would take time to heal.
In this kind of high-intensity battle, every second determines the outcome, and Chen Lun will not let himself fall into such an embarrassing situation.
'I have revealed my ability to split my body before, so I think Roxanne must have been prepared. My spiritual intuition tells me that if I split in advance to avoid the guillotine, the shadow mud will capture my body in the first place.'
This thought flashed through Chen Lun’s mind.
He immediately aimed his right arm at the oncoming giant guillotine and used the Pale Hand.
The white snakes coiled into a giant whip, lashing out from right and left.
Bang!
With the sound of clanging, the guillotine cut off several white pythons, but at the same time it was also deflected by the "Pale Whip" by several meters and passed by Chen Lun.
Chen Lun's expression was calm. He raised his pale hand again and pointed it at the "Shadow Lake" below.
The severed white python grew back to its original state, and dozens of snakes opened their mouths and spit out purple-red deadly fire! A huge column of brilliant fire descended from the sky, hitting the ground heavily, raising a huge flame.
The flames prevented the pitch-black net from approaching, while burning everything below indiscriminately.
“Ahhh!
”
Under the intense heat, the shadow mud was boiling and twitching like a living thing, and the entire area was shaking with great momentum. Roxanne's screams echoed around, as if she was in great pain.
But Chen Lun knew that such an attack still did not hurt the opponent.
He took advantage of this opportunity to pull out a deck of cards and casually raised them up to divine the location of Roxanne's body.
Dozens of cards fell down, but only one card remained suspended in mid-air.
9 of Spades!
"I found you."
Chen Lun grinned, raised his pale hand high, and fell towards the nine o'clock direction like a meteorite.
Dozens of white pythons intertwined into a huge "ball", shaped like a battering ram, and smashed heavily on the ground covered with shadows!
winter!
A three-meter-tall black giant emerged from the ground at the last moment, and his four pairs of arms firmly resisted Chen Lun's heavy hammer.
Roxanne was covered in black mud, even her face was covered in it. Her eyes were bloodshot and she kept coughing up blood as she struggled to withstand the fatal blow.
"how so… "
Her voice was hoarse, filled with disbelief and reluctance.
"There's no way you can find my true form!"
"You know clearly that I am a Destiny Path Extraordinary, but you still act as if you are sure of victory. Do you think that your sequence is higher than mine, so the divination will not work for you?"
Chen Lun looked down at her coldly.
"Sorry, my divination weight is higher than you think."
Just when the two were at a stalemate.
Among the group of snakes forming a huge sphere, a white python broke away from the "organization", slithered out, and suddenly bit Roxanne's throat.
The latter's child's hole shrank suddenly.
The shadow mud covering her chest bulged spontaneously and turned into a pitch-black arm again, which tightly grasped the white python to stop its attack.
"Qiao Ke, you can't kill me, why don't we both take a step back and deal with the 'Red Rose Squad' first?"
Roxanne spat out blood and forced a smile.
"I apologize for being so rude to you... I didn't actually hit you, did I?"
"You seem to have made a mistake, Roxanne."
Chen Lun looked at her indifferently.
"The forces you and I represent are incompatible. Even if you don't take action, I will find a chance to kill you... Who brought you and me to the same red disaster area?"
Roxanne could no longer suppress her anger.
But at this moment, the white python that was pinched by the black hand growing out of her chest suddenly opened its mouth, and a silver sword suddenly spit out of its mouth, and before she could react, it pierced straight into her forehead.
bite!
The silver sword was blocked by the "Shadow Armor" for a moment, and then pierced through her brain!
Roxanne's expression froze.
