Chapter 160: A Surge of Strikes
Chapter 160 – The Emerging Strike
The moment the lie was punctured, the surrounding area returned to reality.
All the dream objects then dissipated, and the mirage lost its effectiveness. And the Lie Demon was able to grab the dying Murderer Ghost and retreat to a safe location.
This, too, was the downside of the mirage.
“It’s been a long time, Mr. Wright.”
“I’ve seen you every day, lie.”
The Lie Demon froze at first, then smiled, “Indeed, isn’t the most common thing in this world, lies?
It is said that a normal adult will say at least twenty lies a day.”
“Thanks for the science tip, but I prefer the tip about drinking 1 liter of water a day.”
Wright set up his black shield and shielded the two women behind him, the great sword of sinful light in his hand flashing with a cold light.
“So nervous about this murderous ghost? All the way out in person to save the day?”
“No, no, no, I’m just like-minded with this gentleman. It’s too bad that a big lie, which was about to be accomplished, is going to be punctured here.”
“Oh? I’m quite fond of lies too. But that’s how people are, when there are more important things, they always have to put down the things they like first.
That’s something I envy you demons.
After all, for you guys, the most important thing in this world is the things you like.”
The Lying Demon reached out and grasped a rusty pirate scimitar. Looking at the way the blade was rotting, it felt like it couldn’t even cut through a wooden board.
Wright frowned and opened his mouth to tease, “Been mixing it up so poorly lately? Can’t even afford a decent weapon anymore?”
“Lies never hurt anyone, the truth is the quick sword. Isn’t it?”
The demon of lies dropped the murderous ghost, and with dancing steps on his feet, he killed it swiftly and lightly.
Wright grunted coldly, and instead of retreating, he advanced to parry his opponent’s attack with his black shield.
Pfft!
The clothes on Leite’s body suddenly shattered and blood bloomed on his back as a wound appeared out of nowhere.
“How?”
Emily was taken aback, this was the first time she had seen Wright injured.
In her eyes, this man was incredibly reliable. Although he was usually a hangdog, he had never suffered such a big loss.
Concept level! Also at the Conceptual level, it was really menacing.
Moreover, she keenly saw that as the wounds appeared on Wright’s body, there was one less wound on that murderous ghost.
Just as she was about to remind Wright, suddenly the same spot behind that lying demon’s body blossomed with blood.
“Pfft! Cough!”
The Lie Demon’s face was filled with shock: “This! This is!”
“Holy Fighting Technique! Sacrificial Body!”
A shimmering light flickered on Wright’s body, his wounds already healed as before, “Human intelligence, interesting, isn’t it?”
“I have never underestimated humans. On the contrary, I love them to death.”
Saying that, the Lie Demon came at him again, the rusty blade in his hand constantly swinging out.
No matter how much Wright resisted, he would definitely be wounded. And at the same time, injuries were bound to appear in the same locations on the Lie Demon’s body.
Wright would use holy light to repair the injuries on his body, and the Lie Demon would use the power of lies to nullify the damage.
After the two of them engaged in a round of battle, there was nothing wrong with either of them. However, the injuries on that distant murderous demon gradually recovered.
In this battle, it looked like the Lie Demon had the advantage. But Emily, who had watched the whole thing, felt that it was Wright who had the upper hand.
Because from the time the Lie Demon was forced out until now, he was constantly using the power of lies.
But from the beginning to the end, Wright never used his conceptual power. He had just used the Holy Fighting Technique and the Holy Light Divine Technique to stalemate with his opponent until now.
Surely, with Wright’s ability, he had already gotten a glimpse of some secrets from the enemy’s frequent strikes by now.
As expected.
After Wright took the initiative to block the opponent’s slash, no damage exploded on him like before.
“Huh!”
“Hmph……”
Behind Wright, a shadow emerged, it was the spirit body of the Flesh Evil God.
Because it hadn’t condensed a divine body, it didn’t yet have the ability to attack others in the middle of the present world. However, sheltering oneself was still no problem.
When the Lying Demon saw the Flesh and Blood Evil God’s spiritual body, his face was a bit ugly.
He could feel it even more, this idol that was only a shadow was not yet a threat to himself. But the existence of the other party would indeed affect the functioning of his own lies.
“Is this the phasing of the origin ……”
The Lie Demon retreated two steps back, staring vigilantly at Leite, with the evil god’s shadow behind him.
“In half a month’s time, Mr. Wright has created such a headache.”
Emily was shocked, she had also heard Wright mention that that Blood and Flesh God Cult, which was responsible for drawing on the divinity used to cultivate [Truth], that was the medicine to restrain [Lies].
But that being said, this side was the preliminary stage of just condensing the divine shadow. Not to mention the conceptual level, it was far from even condensing the Godhead.
Logically, the other party was a concept level, so they shouldn’t be so afraid.
But soon, Emily reacted.
The Flesh and Blood Evil God was weak, but that Lie Demon wasn’t at full strength either!
His original body was sealed, and his newly coalesced body had just been crushed by Wright once a month ago.
This current body, too, had only been coalesced in the last month.
If one were to say, the use of the Lie Concept Divinity, the Lie Demon was definitely at full strength.
But the power he could utilize now was only not much.
It was as if a top-tier Legendary Magician Consciousness had descended into a second- or third-ranked minor magician.
The Flesh Evil God’s power was indeed not much, but it was definitely enough to give him a pot to drink. “Since Mr. Wright has come this way, would you like to consider cooperating with me once again?
Dragon Island, that’s the tumor of this world.
Join forces with me to get rid of it, and afterward, I’ll get my power back and naturally won’t stay in the middle of this world.
After all, this world is tasteless to me.
With a guy as troublesome as you, I don’t want to stay and be hunted by you.
Our interests are not in conflict with each other.”
Wright sneered, “You, too arrogant. After committing countless crimes in this world, you want to pat yourself on the back by saying that you have no interest in this world?
Do you really take this place as a public restroom? You can come and go as you please?
I’m not as good-tempered as Aphra!
You’re messing around on my turf, so don’t even think about sealing or not sealing.
I’m going to wipe you out, straight away.”
Buzz ！！！！
The great sword of sinful light in his hand roared with a gusto, and Wright instantly threw the holy sword in the air, followed by the use of his own concept, Surge.
The vain flesh and blood Evil God divine shadow quickly converged, and in the end, only a palm was left suspended in the air.
However, this palm coalesced into a solid entity, holding the vibrating sinful light in its hands as it slashed down with a sword.
The pupils of the Lying Demon’s eyes shriveled, and the next moment brilliant holy light sword qi rushed in, its momentum unstoppable.
The Lie Demon only felt his scalp numb, he took out a trumpet shaped magic guide, puffed up his cheeks and blew violently.
Countless dense bubbles surged out, crackling and exploding under the holy light sword qi.
Wright frowned, those bubbles were surprisingly all one dream bubble after another!
And it was mixed with, the flavor of lies.
Despite the numerous dream bubbles resisting it, the sharp sword qi still struck the Lie Demon.
Not knowing whether it was injured by the power of truth in this sword, or whether blowing out so many dream bubbles consumed too much, the divine shadow of the Lie Demon faded a lot.
At the same time, this strike also consumed the Flesh Evil God greatly. The divine body of the hand disappeared, and the sinful light fell back into Leite’s hands.
And the Lie Demon was also blasted back to the murderous ghost by this strike, he suddenly grabbed the murderous ghost and jumped backward violently, and then disappeared immediately afterward.
Emily instantly shouted, “It’s the half-dream area!”
Wright had already waved his hand to release the mirage, but unfortunately was a step too slow. The Lying Demon had already escaped into the dream realm with the murderous ghost and poked the lie again.
The half-dream region then exploded and disappeared, and Wright lost track of his opponent.
Emily quickly rushed over, “Strange, just now that intersection I clearly passed by when I came, it wasn’t originally a half-dream area!”
“He took advantage of our inattention and moved quietly.”
“Damn it! What’s that trumpet-like thing he’s using?”
“It’s a kind of dream machine that blows out bubbles that are all dream bubbles. Remember the Blasphemous Temple? The one on the periphery of it is a giant dream bubble.
This guy, he creates dream bubbles out of this stuff and then mixes it with the power of lies ……
Have you ever seen someone blowing soap bubbles after smoking a cigarette?
He creates dreams with this means and then manipulates the soap bubbles by controlling the smoke in them.”
Emily was speechless, “Where does he get all this weird stuff?”
“The one who attacked the alchemy workshop where the mermaid princess was, was undoubtedly him. That workshop is probably a stronghold of the Truth Remnant Party.
Perhaps, like that palace under the lake outside the Holy Capital, it’s a hidden treasure spot of the Tower of Truth.
Inside, besides a large amount of money, there might be a lot of secret treasures and magic guides.”
Wright turned back to look at the City Lord’s mansion high above, “I’d say the Lie Demon attacked the Alchemy Workshop, and surprisingly, it doesn’t even have the Little Mermaid and the Plague Crocodile in its sights.
Presumably, it was running towards other treasures.”
Emily pinched her waist and let out a long breath, “Originally, this demon was enough of a headache, but I didn’t expect him to get the treasure of the Tower of Truth.
Now, the trouble has doubled.
The damnable Tower of Truth, it’s really causing a lot of harm!”
“It’s not advisable to stay here for long, let’s go back first. Otherwise, when the police department’s people surround us, I’m afraid ……”
“Don’t worry, they aren’t brave enough to come out at night when the fog hasn’t cleared. Unika did get a fright, though.”
The two Wrights turned back around and walked over to Unika, the girl still full of shock.
Obviously, what had just happened was too unbelievable and she hadn’t gotten over the shock of what had just happened.
“Who the hell are you …… guys? And what were those just now?
Our Harbor City, Harbor City it, in the end what happened?”
Wright reached out and a blessing of tranquility fell, Unica’s spirit gradually stabilized, and then both of her eyes sank into a deep sleep.
Just in case, Wright added another Holy Healing spell to her to make sure there was nothing physically wrong with her.
Emily looked at Unica’s sleeping face and was somewhat helpless, ”Originally, I wanted her to continue living an ordinary life. It seems like this time, I have to tell her the truth.”
“You have to tell her the truth, it’s what she should know and what she should bear.
It’s the truth, it’s unavoidable.
But then, it’s up to her to choose.
It’s as if, in the beginning, yours was the same. Whether to live an ordinary life, or to fight against fate.
Everything, wait until she wakes up.”
After Leite said that, he took the two women and turned into streams of light, heading towards the release of the Dependable Grocery Store.
Meanwhile, a corner of Harbor City. The Lying Demon looked at the stream of light that crossed the sky above the city and smiled faintly.
“People are most passive when they have something they have to do ……”
Pushing a friend’s book! It’s also a western fantasy, so if you’re interested, you can support the seedlings ah.
