Soul of Burning Steel

There is no need to say more.

Black mist filled Herras' body, and colorful spores and flying insects poured into it like moths to a flame, and then assimilated, making his vitality more vigorous.

In the past few decades, Herras has been using his own vitality to instill in this small world the power to maintain its ecological balance, and now, the established ecological circle, in turn, provides him with endless support.

"You may be the key to my breakthrough."

The calm to indifferent words were transmitted in the mist, Herras's entire body was engulfed by the black mist, and then the black mist completely dissipated with the high priest in it, permeating the world, leaving only a faint sentence the sound of.

"Be the fertilizer of my world, Joshua."

After the words, the world fell silent, only the howling of the wind.

Immediately, the world shook.

Originally extremely bleak, the heavy and flowing black mist suddenly rolled violently, and the entire small world created by Herras began to vibrate crazily—and in the next instant, a sudden change occurred!

boom!

On the ground, on the right side of the warrior, a huge mound suddenly rose from the mossy nest full of mold and moss. Accompanied by a sharp cry, a huge, fortress-like monster tore the earth and rocks, and burst out from the cracks in the earth's crust. Crawling out from the middle, this insect monster with a length of nearly 200 meters, shaped like a unicorn, but even more ferocious than it, waved its huge horn on the top of its head. It charged towards Joshua without the slightest hesitation. .

On the left side of the warrior, densely packed, towering fungal pillars that seem to support the world also began to tremble, and countless translucent hyphae were secreted by it, and then condensed into three dozens of meters long in midair. Three-fingered giant hands. These giant hands are simple in structure and extremely ugly in appearance. They are covered with fungal tumors. They condescendingly shoot towards Joshua. Each one looks extremely vicious and sharp. If you touch it, you will be completely poisoned by the evil plague above.

Stimulated by the black mist of Herras' incarnation, the entire plague world launched an attack on Joshua. The giant armor and the fungal pillar were the main forces, and there were countless poisonous insects flying around looking for opportunities to attack the warriors. Joshua also found that his vitality was slowly passing away, as if an inexplicable force was drawing his strength out of his body and into this small world.

——Herlas' innate ability [Void Sweeping Energy]!

The high priest of the cult, Herras the Blighter, was born with strange powers. His life form had reached almost 'perfect' at an early age, similar to a Void Behemoth. Although the total amount is not high, its quality and Compared with the quality of life force of ordinary people, it is equivalent to rocky planets and white dwarfs. Through the attraction of its own quality, he can easily plunder the life force of other existences.

He also used this ability when he was fighting Joshua in Mycroft World before, but because the warrior's vitality quality was not much lower than his, it was ineffective, but now, in the Plague World, Herras got With the blessing of the whole world, after the gap widened, his ability also had an effect on Joshua.

At this time, the huge plague giant armor had already rushed in front of Joshua, it opened its mouthparts, and bit towards the soldier fiercely, the needles densely packed like blades flashed red, and the smell was sticky. Slime full of viruses and microbes dripped down, and it seemed that it wanted to bite the soldier into pieces in one bite.

But Joshua was not nervous at all.

"eat me?."

Ah.

Just when the giant plague armor lowered its head and was about to swallow the soldier into its mouth, a hand pressed its mouthparts.

Joshua raised his head, he raised his right hand, and the black-red flame of life burned blazingly. It flowed along the warrior's arm and rushed into the giant armor's mouthpart.

And this huge and vicious insect froze in place immediately, and then, black and red lines appeared on its carapace, and the extremely hot temperature spread along the lines. Moments later, the red light exploded, and streams of high-heat life energy like lava shattered the carapace of the giant armor, and projected from its body, resulting in a violent explosion.

A scorching wind of thousands of degrees swept across the ground, and the giant plague armor was completely shattered, leaving only scattered wreckage on the ground. But at the same time, the attack of fungal pillars also followed.

Rumble! !

The screeching hot wind caused by the death of the plague giant armor has not yet dissipated, and the thunderous sound of the sound barrier blasting is accompanied by the falling of three huge fungal arms over 80 meters away.

The fungal pillars in the plague world are completely different from the fungi in the general world. Compared with those fragile water-rich structures, the surface of these arms formed by the condensation of special bacteria is full of cold silver and iron. Now it is thunderous, mountain peaks The momentum of the top is coming towards Joshua, and the sharp high-frequency fluctuations tremble on its surface, tearing the atmosphere like a pair of serrated steel knives, making people have no doubt that even if they are not hit by the fungus, they are involved After this wave, it will also be torn and cut into a mass of flesh and blood.

But that doesn't make sense.

Facing the three giant hands that fell down one after another and blocked all dodging routes, Joshua just shook his head slightly. The muscles in the soldier's left hand swelled, and the vitality that was as strong as the Yangtze River gathered in his left arm, and then he The body turned slightly sideways, the soles of his feet kicked the ground, and the violent force trampled the ground into countless cracks. Tens of millions of plague poisonous insects were crushed into powder under the aftermath, and in the next moment, his left arm disappeared——

boom!

The violent uppercut brought a scorching air wave, and bombarded the fungal arm above. The giant fist and the human fist faced each other, resulting in a terrifying explosion. The intense light brought by the high heat even made this dark world a rare day. For a moment, and in this light, the giant hand of the fungus that was originally as strong as steel was bombarded into pieces all over the sky by the huge force like a tsunami torrent, even the sky-supporting fungus behind it was not spared. The aftermath broke it in two.

Killing the giant armor with one palm and smashing the giant fungus with one punch, Joshua's expression did not change at all. He did not relax his vigilance, but frowned, looking around the black mist in mid-air, looking for where Herras disappeared. real body.

These pests and weird fungi in the plague world couldn't do anything to him, but the warrior still kept a little bit of power and didn't wantonly destroy the world, because he knew that his vitality alone was completely inferior to Herlas. If power is wasted piecemeal, the power savings in the final battle will be even less.

Obviously, the high priest of the plague cult is also very aware of this. Herras is indeed a strong man who has been wreaking havoc in the western mountains for decades, and has not been defeated by various legends and extreme intentions. His fighting methods are fierce and powerful. Cautious, straightforward but not lacking in skill, even if his life energy reserve far exceeds that of a warrior, he will never waste a single bit of strength, and use external forces as much as possible to consume Joshua's energy.

Therefore, in mid-air, the black mist covering the entire sky vibrated for a moment, and countless fly poisonous insects flew out of the insect nest, mold, moss and spore mist like an extremely thick black cloud as if they heard an order , They were like bullets, carrying a highly poisonous plague, and rushed towards Joshua at a high speed.

"Stop playing tricks."

Face me head-on.

Squinting his eyes, Joshua didn't even bother to observe the poisonous insects around him. He simply removed the life energy shield, and let the insects with the infinite plague poison rush on him.

Pieces of sparks flew up, and the fangs and mouthparts of the poisonous insects bit and stabbed at the warrior's body, all in vain. Their all-out attacks could not even draw a white mark on the serious Joshua's skin.

There are some special plague poisonous insects that use instinctive spells. They hum and shoot out dirty black-brown light beams, flying towards the vital parts of the warrior, but these spells can't even break through the life that Joshua's body comes with. The magnetic field collapsed into a cloud of green smoke around him.

Other giant fungi also continued to condense mycelia, turning into various attacks and slashing at the warriors, but Joshua just threw out a fist, and pure physical strength could bring out a thunderous roar, knocking them out one by one. Knocked down and broken.

But now, the entire plague world is pouring out its wrath towards the warriors. A variety of weird biological weapons are secreted from the earth and fungi, among them are steel projectiles, insect cannons with their bodies as cannons, and wings like sharp blades. The sharp-winged insects that can easily cut steel plates into thin pieces of iron, the plague world that Herras had accumulated for decades broke out at this time. In a blink of an eye, all kinds of strange and weird attacks came on Joshua.

Tens of thousands of plague poisonous insects capable of casting dissolving beams and cracking lights are suspended in the sky, arranged in arrays, and they cast their innate spells at the same time, within ten seconds, bombarded with a density of hundreds of spells per second. On the piece of soil less than five square meters where the soldiers were.

A thick column of smoke rose from the ground, and countless dust and ashes rose up amid violent vibrations, covering the sky of the entire plague world with gray smoke.

But the smoke was quickly blown away by a fiery hurricane, and a tall figure emerged from the pit that had turned into lava. In Joshua's hand, he was holding a steel-shell poisonous insect that was more than one meter long and was struggling violently. This poisonous insect looked like a giant bee. Its head was completely composed of special chitin mixed with steel.

This special material can withstand tens of tons of powerful extrusion, and it can also withstand thousands of degrees of flames, but now, the five fingers of the warrior are slowly shrinking inward, which is only enough to make even the strong gold The head of the powerful poisonous insect with a headache was squeezed into a ball of mud by him, and the body was also scattered into ashes under the high heat.

"Don't waste these poisonous insects in your collection, Herras, and confront me head-on."

You shouldn't be so stupid.

There was a blue light flashing in the soldier's heart, and the azure orb converted the vitality of the poisonous insects killed by the soldier, replenishing the energy consumed in the previous battle.

In this world, the person who is least afraid of wheel battles and group attacks is probably Joshua. If it is a one-on-one contest with the high priest of the cult, his fighting spirit and life may lose because of lack of replenishment. But if it is in this different world with miscellaneous soldiers, then his staying power will be beyond everyone's imagination.

"You also have powers similar to mine."

In mid-air, Herras' figure once again condensed with the black mist. He stared at the almost flawless body of the warrior who had been tempered to the limit, and a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes: "No wonder your strength is so similar to mine. , so we are the same kind.”

And Joshua didn't answer the other party's words, he just bent his knees, and then kicked the ground, and then the ground shattered, and the warrior's whole body shot straight towards Herras like a rocket shell fired!

The High Priest had already seen through Joshua's behavior through the previous attacks from the giant plague armor and various types of fungal poisonous insects. He showed up to fight the warrior head-on, and he was well prepared for the opponent's silent onslaught.

While the warrior was punching with all his strength, he stretched out one hand and turned his palm to catch Joshua's heavy punch. Then Herras tightened his five fingers, and then there was a sudden shock, strips of pure and thick white life force In this way, the rays vibrated and erupted from his palm and fingertips, sending out a volcanic eruption and roaring like thunder across the sky.

This is impressively the pale ray that Herras and Joshua fought against each other on the Mycroft Continent before, with the invincible power that can easily slice through the solid rocks of the earth and cut the snow-capped mountains in half!

Accompanied by a soft bang, the soldier's iron fist, which was bitten by the poisonous insect, was cut into dozens of parts, and then absorbed by the cult high priest's life-robbing ability as pure life force, but Joe Xiuya didn't seem to be surprised by this, even though his fist was completely chopped up and absorbed by the enemy, he didn't show the slightest bit of pain, and even the soldier showed a ferocious smile.

"Give you a fist!"

Without any hesitation, he withdrew his left fist that had been smashed into pieces, while his right fist, which had been stored in his waist for a long time, blasted out heavily at the same time, and the atmosphere exploded!

This punch contained Joshua's full strength, and when he swung it, black flames covered it, and the entire space of the small plague world was centered on it, creating twisted and radial cracks. Even Herras's reaction speed couldn't dodge in time, he only had time to turn his body slightly to one side.

Boom!

The heavy punches pierced Herras's chest completely, but the force enough to make the air explode and the thunder from the void couldn't tear his extremely tough body apart. Joshua was not surprised by this, so, In the body of the cult priest, he turned his right fist into a claw, grabbed the opponent's lungs and ribs, and then ruthlessly pulled them out!

There are many schools of fighting that rely purely on the physical body, but in the final analysis, there are nothing more than two types. A kind of swimming that relies on dexterous skills, consumes the enemy's physical strength while dodging, and at the same time accumulates strength to give the enemy a fatal blow. A kind of hard bridge and hard horse, which trades injuries for injuries, and uses its vigorous physical fitness to fight close to the enemy.

Joshua is proficient in both, but at this time, he is using the second one. Using his left fist as a bait, he caused great damage to the inside of Herras's body. The lungs torn out by the warrior There is also half of the throat and stomach bag attached to the chest, and the ribs are full of fragments of flesh and blood and internal organs.

Of course, whether it is the left fist of the warrior or the ribs and internal organs of Herras, it is nothing to the two powerful men who have reached the ultimate intention and have the majestic vitality of the ocean. Within a few seconds of retreating and recovering, Joshua's left fist had regrown, and the wound on the high priest's chest was completely healed, but it was obvious that Heranas' rebirth consumed much more vitality than the warrior.

But he didn't care. Herlas' vitality was several times that of Joshua. The man with dark green hair let out a breath, and said lightly, "Is this your full strength?"

There was no expression on his face, but Joshua could hear a trace of disappointment: "In terms of purely close combat, I may not be your opponent, but just like this, you can't support it for long."

But Herras' words drew laughter from the soldiers.

"Full strength?"

Joshua seemed to have heard something funny: "You mean, that blow just now was all my strength?"

"Is not it?"

Herras raised his brows slightly, and he said strangely: "The blow you just mobilized 87% of the life energy in your body, and the pure power even penetrated the space partition of my small world. It’s not that I stabilize my body with vitality several times that of yours, I’m afraid I’ll be smashed into pieces by you with a single punch.”

But the soldier didn't bother to answer his words. Joshua raised his head, and he looked at the black sky of the plague world.

Warriors are not monks, and fighting with bare hands is a hobby, but this does not mean that this is Joshua's full strength.

At this moment, two clusters of dazzling light shone on the wrists of his hands, and the wrist bones of his right hand and left hand seemed to become two bright new stars, blooming with silver and black-gold rays of light.

Joshua raised his hands and aimed at the sky. And the dome of the sky above the small world of Herras also seemed to echo, two silver and black gold lights lit up!

The deep and wild voice echoed throughout the world——

"Sword!"
