Chapter 551 The Enormous Face
Kevin saw Vanaro's methods and felt like he was playing with fire.
If it weren't for the fact that he had the compass on him, which gave him some value to Vanaro, he would have been dead without a burial ground. He couldn't even keep his soul intact, let alone hope to be reincarnated.
"Damn it, this guy is too ruthless!"
"I'm afraid that in the end, when I no longer have any use to him, I won't be able to escape death either!"
"It's better to be caught by Lachlan than fall into his hands!"
"I must find a way to deal with this guy!"
Kevin thought silently in his heart while pretending to cooperate with Vanaro and holding the compass as they searched for someone.
As Vanaro looked at Kevin with a meaningful gaze from behind, he calculated something in his mind. He felt that this kid had quite a lot of interesting things on him.
At this moment, the temporary alliance between the two harbored suspicions and ill intentions towards each other.
On the other side...
After Miranda entered the barrier, confusion covered her beautiful face when she opened her eyes again. She noticed that Lachlan, who had entered with her, was no longer by her side, which filled her with helplessness and unease.
Miranda had gradually developed a strong reliance on this man. Especially in this unfamiliar and eerie environment, the absence of Lachlan made the goddess CEO panic.
She looked around, only to see a desolate landscape. Some purple plants grew sparsely, casting ghostly shadows at first glance. But what terrified Miranda even more was the scattered skeletons on the ground.
Seeing these skeletons, Miranda felt her scalp tingle, and a sense of fear rushed to her head.
Crack! Crack! Crack...
However, what followed was even worse. At this moment, the skeletons on the ground suddenly stood up one by one. Their skeletal joints emitted a grating sound as they moved. Miranda's pupils contracted, her beautiful face lost its color, and she looked at these "revived" skeletons in fear. Their eye sockets flickered with blue flames, staring at the living intruder. "Are you... human or ghost?"
In a state of panic and fear, the goddess CEO shouted at the skeletons, almost asking a redundant question.
In the next second, these skeletons silently approached her from all directions.
Miranda didn't even have a chance to escape!
Faced with this situation, Miranda, in a state of despair, picked up a broken thigh bone as a weapon, suppressing her fear and disgust.
Swish!
At that moment, one of the skeletons reached out with its withered hand towards Miranda. In this desperate situation, Miranda unleashed her hidden potential. She narrowly dodged the skeleton's attack and fiercely swung the thigh bone in her hand, aiming for its neck.
Bang!
With a muffled sound, Miranda, who was already at the mid-stage of Dark Force, shattered the skeleton's neck with a powerful strike. The skeleton's neck instantly snapped, and its bones scattered on the ground. The two clusters of ghostly flames in its eye sockets seemed to dissipate into the air.
Seeing that she had taken down one
"monster," Miranda's confidence
soared. It seemed that these
skeletons weren't too formidable, roughly equivalent to the early stage of Transmutation Force at best. Furthermore, they were clumsy in
their movements and lacked any
real techniques, making them much easier to deal with.
With this in mind, the goddess CEO gathered her spirits, brandishing the thigh bone in her hand, and began to fight against the skeletons. With her much greater agility, she managed to hold her ground even when surrounded by the skeletons.
However, as the battle continued, Miranda started to sustain injuries herself.
Boom!
"Die! Ah!"
After an unknown amount of time passed, Miranda exerted all her strength and smashed the head of the last remaining skeleton. With a crisp sound, the thigh bone infused with her inner energy ruthlessly crushed the seemingly decayed skull.
After the final skeleton collapsed, Miranda finally let out a sigh of relief. Exhausted, she sat down on the ground, panting heavily.
Miranda, the goddess CEO, appeared quite disheveled. Her back now bore three shocking wounds, with flesh and skin protruding outward. Her delicate face also had a scratch from the skeletal handbones. She was covered in numerous injuries all over her body. This was the first real battle she had experienced since training with Lachlan.
"Lachlan! You bastard!" she exclaimed. "Where are you?"
Sitting on the ground, Miranda spoke to herself with a hint of grievance and resentment in her voice.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
Crack! Crack! Crack...
Just when Miranda thought the battle was over and her nerves hadn't completely relaxed, a strange sound echoed once again.
Immediately after, the sight thax net
would completely crush her hape appeared before her eyes. The skeletons she had previously dismantled had now reassembled.
In the end, they formed an incredibly huge skeleton emitting an immensely powerful aura that overwhelmed Miranda. The flickering blue flames in its eye sockets stared at her with an eerie intensity.
Miranda stood up abruptly, gritting her teeth as she faced this giant skeleton. Despair filled her beautiful eyes, but they also revealed a resolute determination.
She believed that this time she was done for, but even if she were to die, she had to fight and endure. She couldn't just sit and wait for death. What if... Lachlan could come in time?
"Come on!"
Miranda swallowed a recovery pill and a small healing pill given to her by Lachlan. She let out a determined cry to boost her own morale.
Thump! Thump! Thump...
The next moment, the giant skeleton
king moved with clumsy steps,
charging towards the living person in front of it. Although its
movements were stiff, its speed was extremely fast. The massive body made up of countless white bones brought a suffocating pressure upon Miranda.
But at this critical moment, a sudden change occurred!
"Get lost!"
A tremendous negative energy condensed, accompanied by a grand and sinister shout. In an instant, the giant skeleton king, which was rushing towards Miranda, disintegrated under this shout. Its massive body crumbled into scattered bones once again, falling to the ground.
Blue ghostly flames dispersed and flew away, quickly retreating as if evading something terrifying.
Miranda's delicate body trembled, and with a look of astonishment and uncertainty, she turned to look behind her. In that moment, she felt her soul shudder, her hair standing on end, and she was almost scared to faint.
A gigantic face had suddenly appeared in the empty space behind her, hovering between substance and illusion, slightly distorted.
