Tokyo underground city

Chapter 68 Beheading

Lin Huaien felt a little confused.

There was a buzz in his mind, and he felt that many of the conclusions he had established before suddenly disappeared.

He even hesitated to speak:

"You said you killed...Telaris...what happened?"

Anrusen glanced at him and replied calmly: "The machine for producing holy salt is about to break down, and some people don't want to live here like animals."

"So we planned and assassinated Terraris, took her body, and conducted research on a substitute for holy salt."

"Then what we got was the 'black salt' recorded in the diary."

Lin Huai'en opened his mouth and barely digested the information in front of him:

"So the truth about 'black salt' is-"

"The truth about 'black salt' is Terraris' body."

"Flesh and blood composed of the purest 'holy salt' in the world."

An Rusen said as he suddenly opened his collar.

Lin Huaien saw that although An Rusen claimed to be the "Holy Spirit", under his clothes, he turned into a charred skin exactly like the black smoke monster!

Under the charred skin, something like maggots was constantly squirming, looking extremely terrifying.

An Lusen let go of his hand, let his collar bounce back, and looked at Lin Huaien with corpse-like eyes:

"We divided Terares's body, then made the remaining parts into black salt, and gave them to the former priests of the Holy Salt Cult to incite them to oppose the rule of Esadova."

"I don't understand..." Lin Huaien felt something chilling spreading in his body, "Why do you oppose Terraris and Elsadova? Do you want eternal life? Or do you want to oppose Terra Revenge from Reese herself?”

However, what surprised Lin Huai'en was that upon hearing his words, Anrusen himself seemed a little confused: "...Why? Is it hatred? Or fear? We obviously already knew that we who ate Lord Terraris... There is no qualification to enter the eternal kingdom..."

"But... you still distributed the remaining black salt to other shelter members..."

Lin Huai'en subconsciously tightened the hilt of the sword in his hand.

"Yes..." Anrusen was silent for a moment, seeming to be describing and defending: "Because Elsadova is more capable than we thought. She managed the shelter very well. In Terraris After she disappeared, the residents of the shelter listened to her words..."

"We originally gave up other plans...but we didn't expect that Elsadova has been secretly investigating the truth about Terraris's disappearance..."

Lin Huaien took a deep breath and continued what An Rusen said: "So...in order to prevent her from discovering the fact that Terraris was missing, you distributed the remaining black salt and incited the priests and the people to create A tragedy?!"

"Yes." Anrusen nodded expressionlessly: "That's what we did."

"Then you closed the road to the lower level, and then put Esadova under house arrest with the people in the upper area."

"Not only that, you also secretly mixed black salt into the drinking water sent to the upper area, and then turned them into monsters like you——"

"You people-"

"It's a crime worthy of death!"

Lin Huai'en suddenly pulled out the Huiqing Fury.

And Anrusen had already drawn his sword and was waiting for him: "What you said is correct."

Anrusen narrowed his narrow eyes and looked at Lin Huai'en with a dark expression: "Unfortunately, it was Elsadova who died in the end, not us -"

"We even gained immortality. Only that stupid woman and her even stupider husband turned into mindless monsters, lying on the ground in Cabin 101 howling like animals."

"Every time I see their appearance, I can't help but tremble all over!"

"People like you deserve to die!"

Lin Huai'en clenched the sword in his hand and rushed out.

The Cursed Bones followed closely behind him and pounced on Anrusen.

However, An Rusen just waved his sword, and a dark light emerged from above and bounced towards Lin Huai'en!

"Dark spell——"

Lin Huai'en was startled, activated Wu Ru's Feather, and moved to the side to avoid the ghost's attack.

Andrew's attack made him calm down quickly.

Although he was still angry in his heart, he knew exactly what he was going to do.

"The weapon of criticism cannot replace the weapon of criticism."

Lin Huai'en raised the Gray Green Fury to his eyes. The skin on both sides of his temples was tight with anger, but his field of vision was extremely wide and he could see everything.

"There is only one way to release my anger towards you -"

"That means killing you and ending your so-called eternal life!"

Anrusen smiled: "If you can do it, then come."

He swung his sword lightly, and the black light that emerged from the sword knocked down the cursed skeleton that rushed towards him again.

"The enemy's weapon is a side sword." This time, Lin Huaien saw clearly the weapon in An Lusen's hand. It was shorter than the long sword in the mummy swordsman's hand. It had a gauntlet and a ring, and it was not even half a sword. Above, it can only be called a one-handed sword.

Swordsmen who use side swords often have the speed of swordsmen with thrust swords (swift swords), and at the same time can block the enemy's attack line with slashes like sabers.

It's a pretty tough opponent.

But... if faced with the two-handed long sword that Lin Huai'en is good at, the slashing advantage of the side sword will not be brought into play, and the length of the sword will be suppressed, so Lin Huai'en is the weapon with the advantage——

If it weren't for An Lusen's side sword, which could emit that kind of unclear light.

The cursed skeleton hit by An Lusen bounced out and rolled twice on the ground, seemingly unscathed.

But this made Lin Huai'en even more afraid to be careless.

Coco is a cursed creature. Not only is it not afraid of bleeding and suffocation, it is also extremely resistant to dark spells.

Therefore, Anrusen's skills have little effect on Coco.

But Lin Huai'en is a living person. Even with "Asadova's gaze", he would not dare to take a hit with the unknown ability of the Guardian level.

"Think quickly, what should we do..."

Lin Huai'en stirred his brain desperately, recalling the knowledge he had gained during this period.

"To draw the path to victory... to draw the path to victory..."

“But I can’t describe it, what should I do?!”

Lin Huaien felt desperate.

He subconsciously glanced at the spiral staircase behind him.

To be honest, he wanted to run away.

There is a saying that goes well, green hills are always there and water flows slowly, if you can't beat them, just run away.

However, Anrusen seemed to understand his intention, took a step back, and pressed something on the console.

Then there was a buzzing sound coming from the spiral staircase, and the entrance was sealed.

The light in the control room became dimmer.

Lin Huai'en took a deep breath, put away the disappointment in his heart, and gave up his plan to escape.

He turned the gray-green fury in his hand into a side sword exactly like An Rusen——

He looked at An Lusen and said softly: "You forced me to do this."

He reached into his small backpack and took out the violent potion he got from Sen Yan. Then he used his thumb to lift the helmet and pressed it hard on his neck.

An almost burning heat flow was injected into his body.

It left him in a daze for a moment.

He felt that his broad field of vision had become narrower, and he could only see a very narrow area in front of him.

Within that range, there was only one thing that could attract his attention.

It was a blond man wearing black clothes.

He swayed for two seconds, bared his fangs, grinned ferociously and pounced on the man in black.

The black light that emerged from the side sword in the man's hand became unusually slow. He leaped forward suddenly, causing the black light's attack to pass by.

The black light turned in the air and aimed at his back.

But he just stared at the enemy in front of him.

He kicked the ground.

He felt something was wrong with his ankle, as if something was broken.

But it didn't matter, because he couldn't feel pain and couldn't think about such complicated things.

He jumped five or six meters away and pierced the opponent's chest with his swift sword, but was kicked out by the opponent.

not enough.

He saw the other person vomiting blood and realized that the other person was not a human being. Just stabbing open the chest could not stop the other person's body from functioning.

The opponent casually struck something with his sword, and the thing flew to his side and fell to his feet.

He tried to attack, but tripped.

He lowered his head to look, but his ankle was dragging on the ground at an incredible angle.

what to do? Seeing the other party's hand light up with black light again.

He glanced at the things around him.

The brain that became extremely narrow-minded reached the conclusion in the most efficient way.

He pierced Curse's body with his sword, and gained 2 points of curse power amidst Curse's screams.

He watched the 3 points of curse power jump to 5 points, and then activated the skill.

Black light passed through his body.

His body turned into a black cloud.

When he showed his body, the opponent's side sword pierced through his left lung.

But the side sword in his hand also split open the opponent's head, cutting off his left eye and the left half of his face.

Lin Huai'en took a step back, and An Rusen withdrew his side sword from his body.

Vomiting blood, Lin Huai'en knelt on the ground and passed out.

Salt 10 ends tomorrow, and the final chapter of the first volume begins next week!
