Chapter 269: The Transfer of the Battlefield
The red dragon is very strong.
Even in the form of a child, a red-haired kid named Crimson, he was still very strong.
It is powerful enough to withstand a blow from the seventh level of Abess's power.
By using this power, Abes can advance his own plan, a plan that will terrify the enemy, make the enemy panic, and prevent the enemy from following his own path.
----------
I read it wrong.
You got it completely wrong.
Aunt Vanna was able to sense the worms emerging from Crimson's body, and the source of those powers was indeed the curse she had cast;
At the same time, she could also feel the real power and murderous intent of the attack from the fully armored man in front of her.
The combination of these two points, plus the figure of the red-haired child who was no longer moving and gradually sinking into the swamp, engulfed in the raging flames.
She was only sure of one thing.
The man in front of him had just killed a child without hesitation.
And since he is so determined, then what he mentioned earlier, killing all the patients in Carterburg, is not impossible.
Ordinary people die and that's it, but the problem lies with two special beings.
The hunter who holds the heart stone, and the "living dead" who holds the soul bag.
Only if they offer their things willingly can they activate these two things in a magical way.
Only then can she successfully complete the transformation into a Night Ghost Poet.
There is no doubt that if the man in front of him really went on a killing spree in Carterburg, it would be unlikely that anyone would be able to stop him.
But the hunter he chose to hold the Heart Stone was a young man who wanted to be a hero. Wouldn't it be very easy for such a person to come forward in this situation?
Not only that, the "living dead" who doubted his memory and identity probably believed in the identity he now understood.
Although it may feel a little unreal to play the role, there is no doubt that he will be an image that is more inclined to be on the side of justice.
When these two people see someone using cruel means to fight the "plague", it is absolutely impossible for them to live in peace, let alone act indifferent.
But, once you die, you die.
Aunt Vanna did not feel any regret for the people who died because of their curiosity.
Death is their right destination.
The only question is, how will things of a magical nature be affected?
Normally, the transfer of ownership of a magic item is not very obvious.
Only in some places and under some special consciousness can the ownership of the wand's owner be transferred according to the outcome of the duel ceremony.
Generally speaking, if it is not an intelligent magic item, then you only need to perform a simple ritual called attunement to keep those magic items in your hands.
However, the two items he owned were extremely rare magic items, especially those influenced by the power of fate. It was an unknown as to where their ownership should fall. It was a difficult topic to understand, even at the level of a thesis.
The best possibility is that these two things return to the level of ownerless objects, then she only needs to take them back, and then find two qualified suckers to carry out her plan.
The worst-case scenario could be...
Aunt Vanna stared at the man in front of her, a powerful giant sword warrior who was fully armored with no skin exposed.
If the ownership of those two things actually transferred to him, what should I do to make him return them in accordance with his fate?
----------
Abes didn't say anything, he just demonstrated how he "killed" a patient in front of Aunt Vanna.
But Aunt Vanna had already thought of a thousand possible causes of the deaths of Soran and Bai Renchou.
This is where smart people or smart monsters are easy to deal with.
If you worry about gains and losses, you will easily fall into a trap.
"Why, you're not attacking anymore?"
"What are you hesitating about?"
Abes pointed the iron guard on the hand that was not holding the giant sword forward, and Aunt Vanna finally stopped thinking.
There is no need to continue to dwell on it here.
The other party is a strong man who is determined to use this strange and high-pressure method, which means that methods such as psychological warfare will not have much effect.
And every path she can choose has no choice but to fight.
If by luck the guy in front of him hasn't killed the guy with whom he "deposited" the two magic items, then he won't be able to gain any advantage while this guy is still in charge.
Only by fighting and winning first can you continue to find the hunter and the "living dead" to continue the subsequent transactions.
If the guy in front of him has already slaughtered the two people he chose, and the sovereignty of the magic item has fallen into his hands, then he needs to fight even more.
Because this person is not the kind who can be coerced with just a few words.
Even if Aunt Wanna used the most seductive and tormenting methods of the witch, she doubted whether she could make a person who "killed his child without regret" turn around.
Therefore, maybe we should not consider the arrangement of fate now. Aunt Wanna can only choose to defeat him directly and take back the sovereignty first, and then find a suitable person to deliver the items.
And even though the guy in front of her had already slaughtered her two candidates, the situation of the magic item was beyond her imagination, and the actual sovereignty had been lost, becoming an ownerless object. Then, before she could go into the city to retrieve it, the guy in front of her would be the only obstacle.
The decision had been made, so Aunt Vanna no longer concealed it, and her whole aura suddenly became tense.
The person standing there was no longer the old pharmacist with her neatly combed silver hair. Instead, it was clearly a large fey monster.
The body became larger, the appearance was distorted, and the unique ugly attire of the witch also emerged.
Pick at wounds, wear fur and bones as decoration, and smear trash and dirt on hair and clothes to "improve" their appearance.
If he had not been affected by the power of fate, Abes would have been able to use his knowledge of monsters to determine that Aunt Vanna in front of him had traces of four types of witches.
Her hair was the dead white of a winter hag, and her skin was scaled like a fish from the days of a sea hag.
Her iron teeth and rust-colored claws are clearly the appearance of the most violent hag; but unlike the usual hunched back of a hag, she has a head of messy, tangled hair, just like a green hag.
Of course, due to the influence of fate, even if I saw the information about the true body, I couldn't recall it.
So Abes actually just felt that the look of Aunt Vanna in front of him had a very clear sense of disconnection.
After the appearance was completely changed, the battle began immediately.
----------
Aunt Vanna's change made Abes feel a chill.
After realizing that his knowledge of monsters didn't seem to work, Abes immediately adjusted his mindset.
"I see. Not only can I not investigate you from a distance, but even after seeing you in person, I still can't blurt out the answer that's on the tip of my tongue."
Since he couldn't get the information, there was no need for Abes to continue dwelling on it and let himself waver.
Moreover……
"Haha, I've fought a lot of fast battles that require intuition and counter-intuitive battles!"
Gripping the weapon tightly in his hand, Abes immediately adjusted himself and prepared for the upcoming battle.
The frosty breath of the Winter Ghost came first, and the temperature in the air dropped suddenly.
The sudden cold air condensed into ice blades in the air, which quickly flew towards Abes.
But, can such means bring disaster to Abes?
That's not possible.
Because Abes had fought and sparred with the Sage of Frost, the Archmage of the capital of the small kingdom of Wommza, and the Planeswalker from the three eastern kingdoms, Hyonagi, more than once.
So this little bit of tricks, in Abe's opinion, is nothing special.
Abes quickly dodged to the side, and the ice blade grazed his shoulder, not only did it not break his armor or cause a wound, it didn't even leave a shallow trace of frost or snow.
Even though the cold became more intense and the number of ice blades increased dramatically, it still could not stop Abes's actions.
"Is it just this ordinary frost?" Abes said sarcastically.
On the other side, Aunt Vanna clenched her fists in anger.
The Winter Hag naturally has some more powerful spells, but those spells require the use of a magic item called the [Gray Staff].
Just like when a night witch wants to haunt people with nightmares, she also needs a [Heart Stone] and a [Soul Bag].
And now, as she has taken the last step of her transformation, it is naturally impossible for her to keep the gray staff in her hand. Even if she had it, it would no longer be effective.
Seeing that the power of the Winter Spirit Hag had no effect, Aunt Vanna's sea hag form also appeared.
Her hands suddenly deformed, becoming as wide as fish fins, and a cloud of water mist arose as she waved them.
Then, a huge spherical body of water covering ten feet suddenly descended.
At first it was water mist, but before Abes realized anything was wrong, he just took a few small steps back, and then the entire water ball suddenly took shape.
It's natural that you can't breathe in a water ball.
What's even more troublesome is that through the feeling of liquid seeping in through the gaps in the helmet, Abes can tell that this water ball is full of corrosive salts, like the ocean or the Dead Sea, but with much stronger power.
Although it is not fatal to the extraordinary people, it will still cause some troubles if they stay there for a long time.
Aunt Vanna's paws were now resting on the spherical water. She looked at Abes who was trapped inside and made an unpleasant laugh.
"How does it feel to soak your luxurious steel armor in sea water?"
Tsk.
It's really troublesome.
Not only is the steel armor bubble an obviously abnormal liquid with salt content and corrosiveness many times higher than seawater, but subsequent maintenance and repair will be a huge hassle.
What’s more important is that this full body armor of his is not just a simple armor.
Inside, there are rune sets that can be automatically put on and taken off, as well as magic grenades and a launching mechanism on the back.
Although these things are not electrical appliances and will not break down if soaked in water, they rely on magic crystals, carved rune patterns, and cold-welded connections.
But with a probability of one in ten thousand, Abes didn't dare to gamble.
Because if something really goes wrong with this sophisticated full body armor, it will not be something that Abes can maintain and repair in Carterburg.
Must get out immediately!
However, in this not-so-big water ball, after paddling a few times, Abes realized that his movements were restricted within it.
Rather than a water ball of corrosive salt liquid, it is more like a water dungeon.
If the other party continues to maintain this water prison, then Abes will find it extremely troublesome.
But fortunately, Aunt Vanna made a change quickly. After she removed her palm from the water ball, the restraint of the entire water ball suddenly became much smaller.
"Last time, Auntie used a giant octopus to strangle the enemy. Unfortunately, to deal with you, Auntie must break through the armor first."
It turns out that using the sea hag's water dungeon to trap Abes was just to buy time for the transformation into the form of a demon hag.
The rust-colored claws flashed with cold light, and the blade became longer and sharper, then suddenly pounced towards Abes.
puff!
The water prison was instantly destroyed by the sharp claws, and Abes immediately moved at the moment the water prison was destroyed, quickly blocking with the giant sword in his hand.
"It's useless. You just took a dip in the water. You won't be able to use the power of the flame again in the short term."
The power of fire?
She believed it!
She really believed it!
Abes laughed wildly in his heart, but remained calm on the surface.
The so-called power of fire naturally refers to the scene when Abes's giant sword brushed against the ground, and flames attached to it, attacking Crimson.
But in fact, the only two options that Abes can infuse into his weapons are divine power and the sound of creation.
The reason why flames could come out of the giant sword at that time was actually because it was smeared with flammable oil in advance.
The reason for choosing fire is that Crimson is essentially a red dragon, and has immunity and resistance. The image added by fire can ensure that the slash is cool enough without causing much damage to Crimson.
And now, judging from Aunt Wanna’s words, the other party really believed in this “fake fight” drama.
Such unshakable belief also affects the current war situation.
The claws of the witch witch were extremely powerful, and she thought that the enemy had just been soaked in water and could not possibly summon fire, so his absolute strength was greatly reduced.
But the huge sword in the man's hand still made her arm numb?
A terrifying enemy, and to deal with such an enemy, all she needs to do is...
The battlefield shifts!
Use the witch's various strange magic and backup methods inside the lair to carry out a massacre without any fighting spirit!
