Chapter 408·Lord of the Rings

That shadow has been lurking here since very early on.

That shadow has the most powerful combat power on the current battlefield.

His name is Zhao Zhukong. He died a few days ago, but was awakened again because of someone's sacrifice. He lurked near Rivendell shortly after the sky broke, waiting for an opportunity to seize the harvest.

He didn't wait long.

In other words, someone stirred up the current situation and deliberately created a suitable time for him to take action.

He is given a job - his goal is to take the Ring from Frodo in exchange for another man's life. For this purpose, he obtained a brand new body - although it is not a pure body that can exert 100% of his full combat power, it can effectively suppress and eliminate the influence of cellular will, allowing him to remain calm at all times without worrying about the outbreak of inner demons. The body of the Nazgul.

Be well prepared.

Seize the moment.

The invisible shadow does not appear to the senses of any intellectual or non-intellectual individual. His target is hanging on the end of a delicate mithril necklace and hidden in the hobbit's chest, and this time he doesn't intend to take anyone's life.

if everything goes well.

If he succeeds in his goal - enough people have died already, there is no need to add to the kill count.

——"You are hypocritical."

There was a sound in his ears, and he knew clearly that it was a voice coming from deep inside.

——"You know that you will definitely stop it, that you are destined to kill on a large scale, but you insist on using this reason to give yourself an excuse to do it."

That voice came from deep within his soul, deep within the light of his heart. It was the inner demon that he would have to face sooner or later, but he would never be able to face it.

——"Why, after killing your sister with your own hands, you finally want to be a good brother? Or maybe you had a premonition and knew that you were going to kill another sister soon."

——"That's why you're making excuses here to prove that you have no choice but to do so?"

Zhao Zukong didn't answer, he just moved on. His shadow gradually approached the core area, and he saw those strong indigenous people cleaning the lower battlefield. They breathed a sigh of relief at the short-term local victory.

The voice in my heart became quiet, and the bright light blurred the distance on the physical level. He passed through the defense array of the Nanyanzhou team who knew nothing about it. He could cut off everyone's neck in an instant, but he chose to suppress his murderous intention here.

Being able to suppress it is great. His new body brought back memories of the distant past when he could control his emotions at will. He deliberately passed by here, maybe he was also looking forward to his premature exposure in his heart.

but none.

The Nanyanzhou team is just a bunch of trash. They are completely unaware of his existence, and it is even less possible for them to see through his 'inch step'. He could only regret it, but still follow the optimal route to pass through their defense line, and then seek the next scene of exposure.

Unfortunately, Arctic can't do it either. The strong Slavic man who looked like the captain of the Arctic seemed to be aware of it, but at most he could only feel a slight chill. His strength is sufficient but his reaction speed is insufficient. This has been proven as early as the first meeting, and he is not able to find an assassin who is far stronger than himself from the shadows.

If he can't do it, neither can the fox witch. Frost ability users are naturally an added bonus. And when the ritual circle beside her was silently passed through by Zhao Zukong, the assassin's trajectory had already drawn an arc with clear vision on the battlefield.

He didn't find the reincarnation of the Central Continent team.

There are no newcomers and no secondary combat power. Except for the top combat forces who were fighting fiercely above, all the reincarnations of the Central Continent team disappeared quietly. The only thing he could be sure of was that the psychic of the Central Continent Team was monitoring the land, but she might be busy supporting the changes in the sky now.

——I will meet Yingkong.

He has seen the future.

— and she would try to stop me.

This future is inevitable.

The heart that no longer existed was beating rapidly. He knew very well that assassins had assassin codes, and the position was already clear. Even if he said that Ruikong was still alive, he wouldn't be able to stop Yingkong - after all, on Yingkong's side, isn't there also the other half of Ruikong?

Everything must be resolved with the sword in the end. The position has been made clear and no one will back down.

And the long distance finally reached its end at this moment. He expects to be exposed, but will not deliberately expose himself. He had already noticed that the white-robed wizards and elf lords who were guarding the hobbits were making vigilant movements.

And the invisible sword of Morgul is already pointing at the hobbit's chest——

'clang--! ’ The sound of collision arrived without any surprise. Arondette's form jumped out of the hobbit's shadow, and hit the top of Morgul's Blade accurately and hastily. It had adequate power but not the skill, but it still caused Morgul's Blade to deflect slightly and brush the hobbit's shoulder!

——So weak.

Zhao Zukong didn't need to look to know that the person appearing in his sensory capture was another Zhao Yingkong, a residual derivative of Ruikong, who only opened the third-level gene lock's personality. And the threat she poses to herself is almost nonexistent.

Silent trembling echoed in the air, and the instrument called the bone harp was disrupting the fluctuations of the surrounding space. He heard the roars of the strong indigenous people, and felt the long sword of the elf lord and the light from the white-robed wizard's staff.

——Don’t you come out to face...won’t you come out to see me?

An inch and a flash.

The distance in space is meaningless, and the spatial disturbance caused by the bone piano can no longer interfere with the actions of a calm-minded fourth-level assassin. In his perception, the disturbed spatial vibrations were like ripples on a puddle after rain. They were small and only for viewing.

A head fell just like that - the elf lord who was killed by Cunbu still had confusion and unresolved rage in his eyes. He used his remains to resist the light that burst out from the white-robed wizard's staff. And he turned around again, approaching Zhao Yingkong and the Hobbit who was blocked behind her from another angle!

The Sword of Morgul never hesitated. After eliminating the biggest threat on the surface, its goal was to intercept Zhao Yingkong and the protected Frodo. The murderous intention lodged in it is pure and concentrated, and its ultimate goal is still to capture that crucial ring!

He almost did it.

But the next moment, a girl with a gun fell from the sky and blocked the path of Morgul's Blade.

It's Xia.

Jiang Yu left Xia, who was hidden in the dark and had never been exposed, as insurance, and he and Zheng Zha went to the upper battlefield. And even though the hole in the big barrier has been blocked by Ugoliant's spider web, the resonance between the two still remains, and Xia still shares Jiang Yu's fourth-level gene lock power!

Her appearance was beyond everyone's expectations. Having unlocked the fourth-level genetic lock, she transformed part of her mass into a cutting spear. And the characteristics of his own holy war angel are also driven to the maximum at the same moment!

"Interesting." Zhao Zukong's voice came from the wind, which was blurred due to the extremely fast speed. "I really didn't expect that even in this situation, your Zhongzhou team could actually hide a fourth-level professional chip!"

The Sword of Morgul collided with the Spear of Judgment. The material and power of the latter were far superior to the former. Even if Jiang Yu was not there and its 'cutting' nature could not be effectively released, it still easily shattered the dark sword blade and hit Zhao Zukong's ring spirit body!

It was just a pile of metal, an empty shell. It collapsed under the gun blade, and then reorganized in the airspace more than ten meters away. The Nazgul's Husk is a consumable item and the Blade of Morgul is also a consumable item. The new weapon immediately appeared in his hand and was covered with Cunbu's glow.

"The Ringwraith!" The white-robed wizard roared, and the stream of light crashed into the reshaped body of the Ringwraith. However, Cunbu's ability to move is much faster than the burst of light. He flickered again and appeared behind the wizard. The blade of Morgul stabbed again, but it was slightly stuck before it touched the target!

That is a shield, and it is also a delaying illusion created by mental power users. As a result, he was unable to effectively hit the target he expected, but Kasumi's gun had once again caught up.

Another inch.

The assassin's form disappeared again and appeared next to Kasumi again. His sword was faster than Xia's reaction, and Cun Bu's edge pierced Xia's side.

He did something wrong.

Due to lack of intelligence, he used ordinary enchanted steel on a humanoid magic weapon. Xia, who had activated the fourth-level genetic lock through resonance, had at this moment a material strength that exceeded the upper limit that the original A-level holy war angel could touch. In other words, the assassin is trying to use a piece of iron to break through a defensive weapon with a strength close to AA level!

That may not be as good as the demigod body Jiang Yu possesses.

But the defense it represents is still appropriately powerful.

The blade of Morgul rubbed harshly against the fair skin like an old drill. The greatest effect it can achieve at the moment of rupture is to leave a white mark that disappears in an instant, but Xia's palm is already pressed on Zhao Zukong's arm!

resonance.

Xia is not Jiang Yu, she cannot use the power of construction independently.

But she is a master of theoretical martial arts achieved through divinely created memory, and the fourth-level gene lock helped her realize all her theories at this moment.

Her body is filled with the divine power that the Holy War Angel Divine Weapon should have. She can control them freely, just like the ultimate boundless energy that she has abandoned long ago. And the divine power simulated Jiang Yu's forced resonance, forcibly constraining the invisible body of the ring spirit into an entity!

Then, smash!

The earth was torn apart over a wide area. A long and narrow crack stretched from her feet to a mountain several kilometers away. All the impact force was forcibly injected into Zhao Zukong's new body, causing his spiritual body to vibrate rapidly. The next moment, the girl's body suddenly disappeared, and the mountains collapsed from several kilometers away!

Xia's voice echoed in Zhao Yingkong's ears.

——I couldn't beat him, but I was able to suppress him briefly.

——His backup is here, it’s up to you to handle this.

A sense of crisis quickly arises.

After the second blow, the assassin girl was basically let go. She pursed her thin lips. In her cognition, her inner personality, or the body of this body, has long been asleep to the point of being unable to be awakened - when fighting Zhao Zukong, she seemed to feel something deep in her heart. The expectations that spring up everywhere are exciting, but they are like phantoms and not worth touching.

‘She’ is not here.

The only one who can guard this place is yourself.

But can he really hold on?

Self-doubt is not a rare thing, and the assassin girl worked hard to suppress this useless emotion. She clenched Alondette in her hand tightly, feeling the sound of the broken bones inside the armor - the spatial disturbance of the armor generated an uncontrollable backlash after being crossed by an inch, and it was obvious that it carried some of Zhao Zukong's energy. dissatisfaction.

She took a breath.

She saw the collapse of mountains in the distance and the vigilance of the soldiers nearby. She saw the grief-stricken white-robed wizard laying the dead lord's body flat on the ground, raising his staff, and speaking a voice that seemed to be comforting to her.

"Don't be afraid..." he said.

His voiceprint turned into sound waves that slowly extended outward in the reincarnation's slow perception.

Then, there was a gentle but pure white light. Then it bloomed outward from his staff and the ring on his palm.

The light expands rapidly, like a surging wave. It is undoubtedly the light of protection, healing the bodies of the injured and restoring the strength of the tired. All the soldiers who had been lost in the previous wars regained their vitality in a very short period of time, and once again grasped their weapons and guarded all sides.

And that is undoubtedly the light of punishment, the light of revelation. The light swept across the seemingly ordinary open spaces, and the next moment black smoke and screams burst out from the areas lacking light. The huge ghost army led by the Ringwraiths has undoubtedly approached Rivendell - they dare not approach when the Dead River is covered, but they dare to seize the current gap of lack of combat power!

"Stabilize the front!" The white-robed wizard's roar echoed in all directions. The coalition forces were blessed by spells and were able to mount effective resistance in the face of the ghost army. And he waved his staff and faced the ring spirit, which was not as powerful as Zhao Zukong but was equally powerful.

The Assassin Girl remembered one of them, it was particularly powerful, its name was Talion.

The assassin girl felt her own heartbeat. Even though she was surrounded by light, the sense of crisis in her heart was still increasing!

Not them, not here.

The real enemy should be hidden -

'laugh--'

Arondette swept away suddenly. A cloud of blood suddenly exploded in the air.

The young man in black Tang suit appeared at the end of the sword with a surprised look on his face. However, that look of surprise suddenly turned into laughter the next moment.

He does not retreat but advances.

The assassin girl didn't shy away.

The moment the bodies intertwined, blood spattered, and behind the unharmed girl, the young man's head was cut off.

However, the next moment, the girl's heart was filled with surprise - that person's goal was not herself, his goal was to exchange his life for progress. It was clear that both the head and the vitality were cut off by Alondette, who was filled with the power of death. But he just took a step forward again, and the broken sword edge slashed across the chest of the hobbit who was weakened by Morgul's sword!

Frodo did not die.

However, the Supreme Lord of the Rings, which had been freed from its restraints, was falling from his chest!

'clang--! ’

My computer burned out from playing Baldur's Gate, crying.
