Part 4 The Undead Chapter 177 Serving Good Fortune
The light of the red moon illuminated the center part of the steep and long stone staircase, leaving denser shadows on the sides.
Enzo, like a normal night passerby, went down one step at a time, a little fast and a little furious, but not panicked, fully believing that he was extremely lucky, a winner in life, and would not be caught up by the “night watchmen”.
Seeing that the stairs connecting the upper and lower paths were about to be completed, Enzo, who used to be a “monster”, suddenly felt something, and looked sideways to the shadowy position at the very bottom of the lowest level.
He then saw a figure sitting there in a daze, his face and figure blurred by the light, and his dress was typical of the people of East Byron.
The figure took out a box of matches and brushed one off, letting the light illuminate the edges.
Enzo didn’t bother to take this time to gauge the other man’s appearance when an image suddenly flashed before his eyes:
The figure threw the match, as if giving a gift, and as the match approached, an exaggerated stream of flame rose, and out of it emerged a man in formal attire and a bowler hat!
Seeing what he should not see, and hearing what he should not hear, were the daily encounters of the “monster,” and Enzo, who had long been accustomed to these things, and had become a “winner,” without even thinking about it, fully trusting in his own forebodings, sprang forward, leaped out of the steps, and tumbled twice on the street below. The street below tumbled twice.
At the same time, the brown-colored secret puppet, Ove, rose abruptly, twisted his back and flung his arms, and threw the match in his hand to where Enzo had been.
Before the match hit the ground, the crimson flame stream had already stretched and lengthened, running straight into the air, magnificent and gorgeous.
Within the stream of flame, Klein’s handsome, neutral figure in a black suit and half-hat leapt out, but he lost sight of his target.
More than ten seconds ago, he found someone quickly down the stairs, seems to be avoiding something, so he suspected that this is his new secret puppet, so he grasped the time, quickly did a “dream divination”, and got the other party is related to the Rose School, not a good person revelation.
With such an answer, Klein did not hesitate to make a move, but unfortunately, due to the haste, he did not have time to use the “paper angel” recorded in the “writhing hunger” to interfere with the other party’s spiritual intuition, and as a result, it was a blank.
At that moment, his secret puppet Aoife had already left the last floor of the ladder, and ran furiously towards Enzo, who had just stood up.
Enzo’s heart moved, and without making a dodge, he just lightly sidestepped his body and got out of the way of that ordinary attack.
Then, he drew his gun in a smooth manner, took quick aim, and hit Aoife’s chest with a bang.
With gurgling blood flowing out, Secret Puppet Aoife staggered and collapsed, his breathing rapidly becoming weak.
Klein, on the other hand, seized this brief opportunity and his figure disappeared in a flash, flashing to the front of his target and blocking his path of escape.
Enzo had an unspeakable and unnameable strange premonition in a hallucinatory manner, and instantly closed his eyes for dead.
He didn’t know why he was doing this, but as an extraordinary person in the middle sequence of the “Destiny” pathway, trusting intuition was an instinctive reaction!
Immediately after, Enzo turned in a panic, trying to rely on spiritual intuition, rushed into another street, but, wearing a bowler hat and wearing a formal dress with no characteristics of the man appeared on the opposite side of him.
Back and forth, left and right, Klein’s figure disappeared and appeared again and again, as if he was running at high speed in Enzo’s surroundings, always blocking the opponent’s route in advance without making a direct attack, so that no matter where Enzo turned to, whether or not he had used his extraordinary ability, the opposite side of the street was always the figure wearing a black formal dress and a half-height bowler hat.
For a moment, with his eyes closed, Enzo thought that there was not one enemy, but a group of them.
The “Traveler” was always able to create a siege by himself!
In about ten seconds, Enzo, who hadn’t yet broken out of his escape route, suddenly stagnated in his thoughts, his movements slowed down, and glue seemed to have been poured into his mind and joints.
”Traveling” and “Master of Secret Puppets” also go well together, as Klein had been less than 10 meters away from Enzo when he flashed just now! He has been secretly manipulating his opponent’s “spiritual body thread”!
Not good …… he does not attack …… only block …… not …… in order to wait! …… night watchman …… but …… has another purpose …… Enzo, who still has his eyes closed, was so nervous that he suddenly stepped on a stone. Suddenly stepped on a stone, the body suddenly lost balance, fell heavily to the ground, letting the pistol fly out several meters.
Flop!
The pain and shock allowed Enzo to instantly get rid of that stagnant state and rediscover the feeling of fluidity.
Enzo was no stranger to accidents like this, and as a “winner” he had always been able to take advantage of small probabilities and seize victory.
He was about to rush to the end of a side street without hesitation, jump over the guardrail and into the sea, relying on fate to get out of his predicament, when another scene flashed in his mind:
He coughed violently, so that he could not straighten his back or take a step!
Disease! The enemy can infect me with disease! He never made an attack, only blocking my escape path, just to make me stay in this area and imperceptibly catch the disease! Enzo’s heart was first shocked, and then a strong emotion of elation surged up.
The “Green Wah” ring he was wearing came from the followers of the “Primordial Moon”, and once it was turned on, it could easily cure all kinds of diseases and injuries that were not too serious!
This is “Luck”! Enzo pretended not to notice the presence of infectious diseases in the air around him, and leapt out of the room with his hands on his head, following the route he had just envisioned, heading straight for the guardrail at the end of the street.
Just two steps into his run, he suddenly coughed out and slowed down involuntarily.
Instead of subsiding as normal, his coughing became more and more intense, as if he was trying to cough his lungs out of his throat.
With a flash, Klein’s bowler-hatted and formally dressed figure came up behind his target again, maintaining a distance of nearly ten meters.
It was then that Enzo opened his arms and let invisible ripples swing out from his body.
It was as if it was a pure mental storm, raging and scraping against all the surrounding spirits, spreading calamity while bringing intense dizziness.
Klein had the same premonition of danger, and just as Enzo opened his arms, his body had disappeared in place, appearing in the middle of that steep staircase.
Seeing that he had failed to achieve the desired effect, Enzo, who had his eyes closed, immediately abandoned the idea of having to finish off his target before fleeing, and continued to sprint towards the location of the guardrail at the end of the street.
He had a feeling that if he delayed for a while, some of the “night watchmen” would catch up and make the situation even more chaotic.
As a “lucky man”, a “winner”, the more chaotic the situation, the more hope to escape!
At this time, because of the previous continuous change of direction to flee blindly, he once again passed by the secret puppet Aoife, who had been shot in the chest by him.
On top of Aoife’s left index finger, he wore a gold ring inlaid with rubies.
With a flash of blood light from that ring, the wound in Aoife’s chest had wriggled and recovered, and his entire body popped up at once, lunging at Enzo, who happened to be passing by, with his mouth wide open.
Inside his mouth, his tongue seemed to have lost its solidity and turned into a flowing mass of flesh and blood.
”Flower of Blood.”
Aoife was wearing the “Flower of Blood” ring that Klein had obtained from Mr. X. On the one hand, it could randomly cause the wearer to give up thinking and turn into a wild beast, while on the other hand, it could allow the wearer to grasp his own flesh and blood more deeply, and as long as he didn’t die instantly or suffer from a complete purification, he would be able to recover from even the most serious injuries!
It also comes with some flesh and blood magic, making it a magical item perfect for secret puppets!
–Before Klein came out to look for a new puppet, he was not sure which pathway the target belonged to, and how many sequences there were, so he made more comprehensive preparations, and let Aoife wear the ring of “Blood Flower”, so that he could direct a drama that seemed to be dominated by himself and supplemented by his puppet, but was actually just the opposite. This way, he can direct a drama that seems to be dominated by himself and supported by the secret puppet, but is actually just the opposite.
Enzo had just run past where Aoife was lying when his knee suddenly stung, as if he had suffered some minor injuries from his previous fall.
With a flash of thought, he crouched down in a smooth motion, then felt a shadow fly over his head and pounce!
Aoife’s sudden attack still had no effect on the “winner”!
Enzo was about to smile and run wildly again, when he had a bad feeling in his heart, and subconsciously curled up to protect his fatal part.
At the same time, the secret puppet Aoife violently expanded, noiselessly exploded.
A mass of flesh and blood turned into a storm, sweeping a good portion of the surrounding area and swishing at Enzo’s body.
One of Klein’s preparations was to utilize the mutated ability of “Creeping Hunger” to plant a “Flesh and Blood Bomb” in the body of the secret puppet!
With a loud bang, the ruby-encrusted gold ring fell to the stone floor of the street, and Klein’s figure flashed next to Enzo’s. He lifted his left palm and let the glove fall to the ground.
He raised his left palm, making the glove black, as if it were made up of individual particles, and spat out a word full of evil and depravity:
”SLOW!”
Enzo was lucky enough to avoid most of the damage, and his body, which had only suffered some minor injuries, stood still for a moment, his struggling movements noticeably slowing down and his curled up posture changing a little.
Immediately afterward, his eyes that had opened due to the pain reflected into a figure, a figure wearing a black formal dress and a half-height bowler hat.
”Ah!”
Enzo let out a steep scream, and his hands lifted up to cover his eyes.
Wisps of blood then seeped out from between his fingers.
”Monster?” Looking at the target writhing in pain on the ground, Klein raised an eyebrow and continued to manipulate the “Spirit Body Thread”, quickly completing the initial control.
This time, there was no accidental interruption, and Enzo, who was in a state of semi-insanity, had grown some scales on his body surface, was also unable to resist, so Klein deepened his mastery quite smoothly.
As time passed by, Enzo suddenly rolled over and stood up, collecting the few serpentine scales that protruded.
He pressed a hand to his chest and curtsied to Krynn before walking to the side, bending down and picking up the ruby-encrusted gold ring and placing it on his left index finger, which just happened to be paired with the emerald ring on the other side.
Resisting the urge to take a look at himself with his new secret puppet, Klein let Enzo take care of the blood and traces that remained at the scene.
With that done, he took the secret puppet and stepped into the shadows on the side of the street, quickly disappearing.
