"At the stime, while controlling 26 Ghost Bees, blood vessels emerged on Lan Jue's eyeballs, blood vessels bulging on his face. From those twitching vessels, you could see how fast his blood was flowing.
Boom, boom, boom— Lan Jue's heart was pounding like a drum, beating at a speed of at least 300 times per minute, making it difficult for him to breathe. Lan Jue was pushed to desperation by Su Xiao, who was preparing to fight him to the death.
This style of action didn't seem like that of someone from the Paradise of Apocalypse; instead, it resembled the style of the Paradise of Reincarnation, never compromising and pushing to the brink.
Su Xiao controlled Sis to stand in front of himself and transferred control of Sis to Bubu Wang. He wanted to focus on the battle and needed more energy to control Sis. It was impossible to both engage in close combat with the enemy and control Sis, which was why, unlike the last battle with Lan Jue, Su Xiao didn't summon the Orphan of Resentment·Sis. Bubu Wang took over control of Sis, lying in the bushes, focusing all its attention on Sis.
At this moment, Sis was standing in front of Su Xiao. After Bubu Wang took control, the Orphan of Resentment·Sis subconsciously extended its tongue and landed on all fours.
Su Xiao's mouth twitched, kicking 'Sis' on the side. 'Sis' turned around in confusion as if saying, 'What's wrong, master?'
"Get up, quickly adapt to Sis's fighting style, stand up, rush over, and use the 'chicken leg' in your hand to hack at that guy." After hearing Su Xiao's words, Bubu Wang quickly stood up and glanced at the muscle scimitar in his hand. This thing was what Su Xiao called the 'chicken leg.' In fact, this thing looked like a peeled chicken leg, just magnified several times.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIn the Holy Grail world, Su Xiao almost got hammered to death by this 'chicken leg.'
A counter shield formed around Su Xiao; dozens of hexagonal energy shields hovered around him, ready to defend against Lan Jue's attacks at any time. Su Xiao and Lan Jue locked eyes, and neither side spoke, as both parties were short on time.
Boom! The soil splattered under Su Xiao and Sis's feet as they charged towards Lan Jue. Sis was in front, Su Xiao behind, occasionally changing positions, a silent understanding between Su Xiao and Bubu Wang. Swish, swish, swish... 20 Ghost Bees shot forward, breaking through the layers of air, while the remaining 6 Ghost Bees hovered around Lan Jue.It was challenging to deal with just one Ghost Bee, let alone 26. Initially, the maximum summon limit for Ghost Bees was 1. After the Mechabug King parasitized Lan Jue, this restriction was temporarily lifted.
The 20 Ghost Bees attacked Sis first. Bubu Wang controlled Sis to open its arms, completely shielding Su Xiao, who was behind. If it were ordinary arrows, what Bubu Wang did would be correct, but the Ghost Bees were not ordinary arrows. The arrow bodies of the 20 Ghost Bees turned blue and bectranslucent.
Swish— The Ghost Bee pierced through Sis, heading straight for Su Xiao. Su Xiao's perception was fully open, and he felt a faint prickling sensation all over his body—a warning sign. Realizing he couldn't defend against the Ghost Bee, Bubu Wang immediately stopped controlling Sis.
"Don't stop! Go and harass him." Su Xiao shouted, his eyeballs rapidly turning in their sockets, capturing the trajectories of the attacks from the Ghost Bees. There were too many Ghost Bees.
Just as Bubu Wang stopped controlling Sis after the command, he almost instinctively continued rushing towards Lan Jue.
Following Su Xiao's orders was instinctual for Bubu Wang. Sis charged towards Lan Jue, and the 6 Ghost Bees around Lan Jue stopped hovering, waiting for Sis to attack. At the stime, Lan Jue drew two energy guns from his waist.
Bang, bang, bang...Thirty basketball-sized plasma balls were fired. These plasma balls had tracking capabilities and were already locked onto Su Xiao. Su Xiao controlled thirty counter shields to confront them.
Su Xiao didn't have tto evade the plasma balls; he had to ensure he didn't die under the siege of the 20 Ghost Bees, which was difficult. The 20 Ghost Bees were currently in a virtualized state, ready to transform into a physical attack against Su Xiao at any moment.
The virtualized Ghost Bees first penetrated through Su Xiao's surrounding counter shields. The Ghost Bees were already incredibly fast, and after passing through the counter shields, their tips were less than 20 centimetres away from Su Xiao.
After passing through the counter shields, the 20 Ghost Bees solidified, their bodies turning pitch black, carrying powerful kinetic energy. At this moment, Su Xiao's feeling could only be described as hairs standing on end. If he made any slight mistake, he would die on the spot.
The skin targeted by the arrow tips felt a chilling warning sensation. Su Xiao leapt in place, swinging his Dragon Slayer's Flash in a side slash. Ding. Seven Ghost Bees were sent flying by the slash; nine were evaded by Su Xiao's jump, leaving four. One pierced Su Xiao's abdomen, two pierced his left shoulder, and one pierced his thigh.
Four blood holes the size of fingers appeared, and Su Xiao raised an eyebrow. The power of these things had weakened a bit. As Su Xiao landed, the Ghost Bee with blood-stained bodies turned around behind him, the arrowheads pointing at him.mRings broke apart.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmClang. A pale blue ring-shaped blade spread out. Lan Jue, a hundred meters away, immediately controlled the Ghost Bees to dodge, but at this moment, Sis, controlled by Bubu Wang, had already rushed to his front. Lan Jue's control of the Ghost Bees paused.
As the ring-shaped blade wholly expanded, two crisp sounds echoed. The ring-shaped blade cut two Ghost Bees; one had a cut in the middle, while the other had its arrowhead cut off.
Su Xiao noticed that among the 26 Ghost Bees, one was the fastest. That Ghost Bee should be the one Lan Jue kept close to him. The other 25 newly formed Ghost Bees were slightly inferior in penetration, power, and toughness.
Although that was the case, the newly formed 25 Ghost Bees were extremely fast, and their penetration power was enough to pierce Su Xiao's flesh. The Ghost Bee next to Su Xiao suddenly retreated, moving away from him because Bubu Wang had already controlled Sis to get close to Lan Jue.
At this moment, Sis had three Ghost Bees embedded in his body. The muscle scimitar in his hand smashed towards Lan Jue. Lan Jue was quick and immediately dodged sideways. He wasn't just a long-range fighter.
Boom! The soil splattered; Sis's strength was terrifying, and the splattering mud and rocks were akin to shotgun bullets. If observed closely, it would be noticed that the movements of Sis, controlled by Bubu Wang, were somewhat stiff. It wasn't that Bubu Wang couldn't control Sis properly; it was the three Ghost Bees inside Sis causing trouble.
The remaining three Ghost Bees next to Lan Jue shot towards Sis. They quickly pierced into Sis's body, stopping inside him. As a result, Sis had one Ghost Bee each in his head, both arms, both legs and chest—exactly six in total.
"Command: Ascend." Lan Jue raised his arm, and the six Ghost Bees inside Sis, carrying Sis with them, flew higher and higher into the sky. "Now it's just us." With blood vessels bulging all over his face, resembling a fierce ghost, Sis smiled. Su Xiao had no tto pay attention to Sis; the 19 Ghost Bees around him were too difficult to deal with, leaving him no room for a moment of distraction.
Swish— A Ghost Bee grazed Su Xiao's neck, leaving a bloodstain. With a spluttering sound, another Ghost Bee pierced Su Xiao's left arm. At the stime, he swung his sword to strike at another Ghost Bee in front of him. Ding! Metal debris flew, and one Ghost Bee was cut into two by Su Xiao.
Cough, cough, cough... Lan Jue made intense dry coughs; blood flowed from his earholes. Whenever Su Xiao shattered a Ghost Bee, Lan Jue had to endure the backlash. Despite this, Su Xiao was worse off than Lan Jue; he had at least ten blood holes in his body, with three of them reaching his internal organs.
