Chapter 443: The Destruction of the Fang Mercenary Group
Chapter 443: The Destruction of the Fang Mercenary Group
Lin Zhenxi remotely activated the teleportation magic circle in the storage warehouse where the jars of mass-produced Ashura Rhinoceros Beetles were stored, forming an inward-concave portal on the wall, which sucked in all the jars stacked in the warehouse.
Then, a portal opened above the wedding scene, and jars fell one after another, hitting an unlucky guy right below. The werewolf with red fur was directly flattened and died a miserable death.
Strange events unfolded one after another, filling the orcs present with immense fear. However, because the stagnant space was still in effect, they couldn't even turn their heads to look in the direction of the strange noise. Only those facing that direction were horrified as they watched the jar shatter and the Asura Rhinoceros Beetle rapidly grow from a lump of flesh into a muscular monster.
They cannot control their facial expressions and can only use their eyes to convey their emotions at the moment.
These mass-produced, vocally incapable Asura Rhinoceros Beetles matured at an incredibly rapid pace, then began their remarkably efficient slaughter. The Canine Mercenary Corps' officers were immobilized by magic, and killing them was easier for an Asura Rhinoceros Beetle than crushing a chicken. A single blow often sent their skulls shattering, leaving a splattering trail of blood on the ground. Brain matter, shattered bone, and the fluid from the ruptured eyeballs mingled in a vibrant, gruesome display.
An atmosphere of fear permeated the scene, but this did not slow the pace of the slaughter. Lin Zhenxi had sent over a hundred mass-produced Asura Rhinoceros Beetles because she had anticipated that her barrier magic might not succeed immediately and that a fierce battle might ensue. However, Da Ke'er hadn't even attended the wedding, and the barrier magic was a resounding success. Lin Zhenxi's prepared forces were suddenly overwhelmed, and she couldn't even decimate a single mass-produced Asura Rhinoceros Beetle against a single enemy.
The result was some rather bloody and cruel scenes, for example, two mass-produced Asura Rhinoceros Beetles targeted an enemy at the same time, and their fists, as big as small millstones, slammed down on the unlucky Canine Mercenary Corps cadre twice. The huge force collided with each other, directly exploding the flesh of the unfortunate Orc cadre and turning it into a blood rain.
In the blink of an eye, all the members of the Canine Mercenaries present were slaughtered, with the exception of Gragul, who Lin Zhenxi specifically requested to remain. Seeing that the mass-produced Asura Rhinoceros Beetles were already planning to flee the wedding venue, Lin Zhenxi quickly cut off their magic power supply and released their summons.
These Asura Rhinoceros Beetles were incredibly efficient at massacres. If they were allowed to charge into the Orc Canyon, the Orc settlements would be littered with corpses and blood in an instant. Unlike the sinful Canine Mercenaries, those innocent Orcs were far different. Randomly slaughtering those whose souls were innocent would only bring the sins upon Lin Zhenxi.
Again, Lin Zhenxi didn't want to see the green-haired Great Yama in the Courtyard of Death in the future, and be hit on the head with a repentance stick while being shouted at by him, "Guilty!"
Accompanied by billowing white smoke, all the Asura Rhinoceros Beetles disappeared. Then, Lin Zhenxi appeared in the wedding venue that was completely filled with blood.
Standing in the wedding venue where corpses were everywhere and the air was filled with a strong smell of blood, Lin Zhenxi looked around, and finally passed by the three sisters of the Alien Clan who were also unable to move, and looked at Gragul who was maintaining a half-squatting defensive posture.
At this time, the effect of the magic barrier of the stagnant space still exists, and Gragul still maintains a stiff posture, but from its completely red eyes, it can be seen that it is now so angry that it is about to lose its mind.
This won't do. Gragul is the person with the highest status and broadest knowledge in the demon world that Lin Zhenxi has met so far. She wants to capture him to inquire about the specific situation of the demon world, especially the Xiu Sect.
Gragul would definitely go mad after regaining his freedom, so let him lose the capital to go mad forever. Lin Zhenxi raised his wand and pointed it at Gragul. A magic was projected from its eyes into its brain, forcibly pulling its soul out of its body.
Soul stripping!
A milky white spirit that required clairvoyance to be seen floated out of Gragul's body, looking around in confusion, obviously not yet figuring out what was going on.
Lin Zhenxi was too lazy to explain its current state to it, so she just took out a bottle, pulled out the lid of the bottle, and pointed the magic wand at Gragul's soul. As the magic wand in her hand rolled like a small wooden stick, Gragul's soul was also affected by the magic and turned into a concentrated soul light ball, which was put into the bottle with sealing function by Lin Zhenxi.
Soul matter couldn't be placed inside the Space Cube, which was quite troublesome because it meant Lin Zhenxi couldn't carry it with her. Lin Zhenxi had no choice but to open the portal and put the bottle containing Gragul's soul back into her underground activity room. She would later interrogate it and extract all the valuable information from its memory when she had some free time.
As for now...
Lin Zhenxi snapped his fingers, interrupting the magical effect of the stagnant space within the venue. With a few snapping sounds, the two sisters, who had regained their mobility, and Gragul's bodies lost their support and fell to the ground in a pool of blood, splashing three blood-red splashes.
Gragul's soul has been extracted by Lin Zhenxi. A body without the soul's drive is no different from being dead. Although its heart is still beating and its blood is still flowing, this is just an inertia of the body. As its body begins to realize that its soul has left, it will naturally enter the process of death.
Of course, there's a second possibility: the body stubbornly resists its own death, and driven by this intense desire, a new soul is born. To use a more vivid metaphor, it's like Pangu's death at the beginning of the universe, his body transforming into all things in the universe, and then a host of great powers, including the Three Pure Ones and the Twelve Ancestral Witches, emerged from his corpse.
But that would only happen if one's body was incredibly strong, at least at the level of the Destroyer Demon King. Gragul? It wasn't even close.
So after losing his soul, Gragul's body immediately entered the process of death. His heartbeat began to slow down, and the metabolic reactions throughout his body began to disappear. It wouldn't be long before he would die completely.
The soul will dissipate when it leaves the body, and the body will die when it leaves the soul. The two are interdependent, complementary, and indispensable.
The remaining two sisters among the three climbed up from the blood, wiped the blood of other orcs on their faces with great effort, and looked at the hellish scene in front of them, all with expressions of fear.
Lin Zhenxi acted quite nonchalant. After all, she was once a human and now a witch, so she had nothing to do with orcs. In her eyes, these orcs were no more than animals in a slaughterhouse. Could it be that a slaughterhouse filled with animal carcasses was too gory for anyone to look at?
Maybe some people would, but Lin Zhenxi wasn't one of them. Besides, she was the one who caused all this. If she didn't dare to look at it, wouldn't she seem a bit hypocritical?
It was nothing in the first place. The dead were orcs, not humans. Apart from feeling a little disgusted by the broken pieces of flesh and blood on the ground, Lin Zhenxi felt nothing in his heart.
At this time, Lin Zhenxi had already come to Beladir and began to study how to remove the layer of water film that wrapped Beladir.
It's funny to say that the magic barrier created by the four-leaf clover headdress that Lin Zhenxi gave to Beladir, which activated all the magic power, was quite difficult for Lin Zhenxi to dismantle on her own. After all, the magic barrier's sole purpose was to protect the safety of those within it, and Lin Zhenxi hadn't left any backdoors in it. As a result, the magic barrier's function was quite pure, and even Lin Zhenxi couldn't think of any other way to break it except by brute force.
This time, Lin Zhenxi shot herself in the foot.
This magical barrier took the form of a water film, characterized by its tenacity, incredibly strong. The fluidity of the water allowed it to withstand both blunt and sharp weapons, providing excellent defense against cuts and slashes. Lin Zhenxi remembered that the easiest way to destroy this magical barrier was to thrust a weapon like a spear or lance vertically into it. Attacks at that angle were difficult to deflect, making it relatively easy to disrupt the barrier's overall stability, like popping a bubble.
Very good, then stab the Beladir inside through, right? Then make a fire underneath and put it directly on the grill. Lin Zhenxi had to prepare some seasonings to brush on the surface of Beladir's body.
No, no, I can't keep thinking about this. That's too perverted. Lin Zhenxi shook her head, throwing away the terrible idea of grilling Belladir, and began to think of a more gentle way to remove the magic barrier she had created herself.
Actually, it wasn't that there was no solution, it was just a little more troublesome. In fact, Lin Zhenxi could think of more than one solution now.
The first method is to start directly with the magic power, and drain all the magic power in the four-leaf clover headdress through external siphoning. Without the magic power, the magic barrier will naturally be unable to continue and will naturally disappear.
The second approach is to investigate the magic's manifestation. Isn't this just a film of water? It's just fluid and not very thick. So, Lin Zhenxi could easily freeze it. Once the water film turns to ice, wouldn't it be much easier to break it?
So now, what to choose...
