Chapter 804: Consecutive Kills
Chapter 804: Consecutive Kills
"Know?" As he got a closer look at Nolan's face, the Deviator's anger, which had just been directed at Lindsey, instantly shifted to the Law Manipulator before him, "I more than know you!"
"The manipulator of laws, the creator of the Law Paladins!"
"If not for you holding back the Sons of Darkness in battle, the Crown of Extinction would have surely..."
A thunderous roar echoed.
The law power on Nolan's blade instantly reversed.
In the brief moment when his weapon clashed with the Deviator's Flesh Armor, Nolan had already analyzed this Essence Skill, and then a completely opposite law of suppression appeared on his blade!
Then, the essence erupted.
Nolan forcefully slashed his sword forward, cleaving through the Deviator's Flesh Armor and striking the Deviator within, sending him flying outward.
Nolan's strike was effective, and he held his sword with one hand, a smile on his face:
"You dare to chat in the middle of a battle?"
His taunt was followed by a pursuit.
The Law Manipulator stomped on the ground, and his figure flew forward like a hummingbird, catching up to the Deviator he had struck in mid-air.
Their gazes met.
Nolan also saw the Deviator with a sword scar on his face.
But just like the injuries caused by Lindsey's arrows earlier, the Deviator's enormous life force rapidly healed his body, and the wound on his face was also healing at an astonishing rate.
Even with the interference of law power.
However, due to the inferiority in rule manipulation, the Deviator was still able to quickly heal himself, ignoring the fact that his head had been cleaved open.
"Heh—"
Nolan remained calm, even maintaining a smile on his face:
"I understand."
"You, like the Feathered Serpent, are from the future, and we've crossed paths before."
"But when you fought me, you probably got a good beating, didn't you?"
"..."
The blatant humiliation caused anger to surge on the Deviator's face.
Still in mid-air, he had not yet landed.
Surrounded by flames, he manipulated his Flesh Armor, extending countless human-shaped arms to entangle Nolan:
"I'll finish you off now!"
"Then everything that happened afterward wouldn't have occurred!"
"..."
The attack was so close that it seemed to have arrived in an instant.
Nolan, still in mid-air, adjusted the law power, unable to find leverage or a place to dodge.
Instantly, he was enveloped by countless flesh-made hands.
Then, a stench of evil power emanated from within, contracting inward.
It seemed to want to crush the Law Manipulator into a meat paste, and also to invade the enemy's body, transforming this human into one of its kind!
Creak—
At this moment, the flesh-made hands froze in mid-air.
This was not because Nolan, who was inside, had cut them open, nor was it the Deviator having a change of heart and suddenly stopping at the moment of victory.
The only reason was that the battlefield was not limited to just the few of them.
After the Righteous One and the Law Manipulator's surprise attack.
Slower but equally powerful Awakened ones gradually joined the battle, including the Life Scholar from Beyond the World.
Tao Feng had descended from the mountaintop to the middle of the mountain.
The Seventh Stage expert's technique was enough to reach the battlefield below, and he unleashed his power.
Amidst the Deviator's flesh-made hands, a pure and robust life essence suddenly descended. The Life Scholar's Primordial Life Force, a completely opposite law of suppression to the Deviator!
"Life Technique?"
Sensing the stagnation of his abilities and attack, the Deviator looked up:
"Life Scholar!"
In the scorching heat, the distorted air parted, creating a path.
Amidst the chaos of the battle, Tao Feng not only halted the Deviator's attack but also swiftly altered the surrounding battlefield with his immense power. The golden-red flames ignited by Nolan were now interfered with by the law of life force, causing crimson Spoke Flowers to bloom amidst the blaze.
In an instant, the battlefield where Nolan and the Deviator clashed transformed into a vibrant sea of flowers.
The dense aura of life force permeated the area, and the Deviator, who intended to continue its assault, found itself entangled by the plants growing from the flames, unable to move for a moment.
Swish!
Nolan's longsword cleaved through the air, seizing the opportunity created by the Life Scholar. He swiftly tore through the surrounding Flesh Hands.
Without hesitation, he spun his blade in the air, harnessing the power of law to manipulate objective existence and infuse Tao Feng's life force into his own attack. With his greatsword, he unleashed an Odd Blade.
Boom! Another strike descended.
But this attack was different from the previous ones.
The distortion of law and the control of life force combined, both forces adhering to the sword's edge.
Like a diamond blade slicing through glass, the Deviator, along with the Feathered Serpent's Flesh Armor, was cleaved in two by Nolan's sword. Their life force and essence fluctuations rapidly dissipated.
"Hey!"
Nolan landed on the ground, stomping on the enemy with a resounding 'pa'.
As the power of law permeated his body, he also completely drained the temperature from the enemy beneath his feet.
Facing the deceased Deviator, Nolan's smile faded, and he offered a solemn assessment:
"To withstand the onslaught of so many attackers and even dare to counter-attack, that's impressive."
"Indeed, a formidable opponent."
"..."
Meanwhile, Ben's domination over the Feathered Serpent's head was absolute.
Through the Steelheart Sword embedded in the serpent's head, his will transformed into a raging force that tore through everything, pulverizing all within the Deviator's mind, causing it to spill out from its eyes, nose, mouth, and ears.
Lindsey provided support with her precise shooting skills.
Each time the Feathered Serpent struggled or resisted, their efforts were swiftly halted by the relentless assault.
However, the Deviator's power continuously repaired the serpent's body, turning the battle within its mind into a war of attrition between restoration and damage, slowly eroding the beast's consciousness.
It wasn't until Nolan and the Life Scholar combined their efforts to finally slay the Deviator, and the restorative power within the Feathered Serpent's mind ceased as well.
"Excellent!"
Ben let out a triumphant shout, his willpower surging once more. In an instant, he regained the upper hand, swiftly overpowering the colossal monster beast beneath him.
The Feathered Serpent offered no resistance, as if this death was the very release it yearned for.
"Is it over?"
Seeing the situation below, Lindsey leaped from the mountaintop, using her flight skills to descend to the ground.
Beside her, the Spatial Mage opened a rift, transporting everyone else down the mountain.
Looking around, they witnessed the flames in the canyon gradually dying out.
The Blood Lake was either consumed by Nolan's flames or transformed by the Life Scholar's power.
Not a trace of Corrupting Poison remained in the vicinity).
Only the bodies of the two enemies, positioned on opposite sides, bore witness to the battle that had transpired.
"Phew!"
The outcome of the battle was near-perfect, and everyone relaxed.
But among the ruins, Lindsey's expression changed after checking her Attribute Panel.
In her Hunting Journal, there was no increase in the Deviator's kill count!
