Tina's figure flashed across like lightning, her reddish-brown eyes gleaming with determination. Her right fist, clad in a red gauntlet, whistled through the air as it slammed into the dark arm of the [Black Ember Weaver] that was attempting to attack Mary.
A powerful force erupted, shattering the right arm of the [Black Ember Weaver], causing the black mist bandages to disintegrate and scatter into black mist that Mary skillfully dodged.
The Black Ember Weaver's attack was thwarted, and her figure blurred again before vanishing instantly.
The next instant, it reappeared on Harley's side.
Harley had just dealt with a few clones and was about to turn her attention to the main body when she was suddenly attacked.
"shit!"
Harley cursed, her body bending backward at an unbelievable angle as if it had no bones. The black bandages almost grazed her nose, and the gust of wind ruffled the hair on her forehead.
Even so, a few strands of hair that were brushed by the black ash at the end of the bandage were instantly charred and curled up.
so close!
Harley executed a beautiful backflip, creating distance between herself and the Ember Weaver. She took a breath, still shaken, but her smile became even more manic.
"Wow, they almost kissed! You naughty thing!"
This kind of unpredictable, flashing attack is impossible to defend against.
Even though the girls were on high alert and reacted quickly, the [Black Ember Weaver] was just too fast and its attack angles were extremely tricky.
Every raid was fraught with danger.
This can't go on; their mental state will collapse sooner or later.
As Su Hui swung his sword to cut the incoming bandages, his eyes flashed with a fierce light as he stepped forward to try and restrain the opponent, while simultaneously observing the movement patterns of the [Black Ember Weaver].
Recalling the fact that the system named the [Black Ember Weaver] a rule-based monster, Su Hui quickly discovered the pattern.
The enemy always launches a surprise attack when the target is out of sight or when the other three have not yet pinpointed the target's location.
Perhaps its strange ability to move is constrained by some kind of rule.
Su Hui felt he had grasped the key!
"Tina, Mary, you two focus on eliminating the split entities!"
"Harley, you come with me. The two of us will be responsible for locking onto the main body! No matter what, at least one of us must keep our eyes on it! We absolutely cannot let it out of our sight!"
Su Hui gave instructions at an extremely fast pace.
"understand!"
"No problem, honey!"
Tina and Mary immediately responded and focused their efforts on clearing out the ever-growing number of split entities around them, creating space for Su Hui and Harley to lock onto the main body.
Su Hui and Harley focused all their attention on the [Black Ember Weaver] itself.
The two men had sharp eyes, like hawks, fixed on the dark figure moving through the split entity, ensuring that at least one of their gazes was on it at any given moment.
really!
Under the watchful eyes of Su Hui and Harley, the previously blurry and flickering figure of the [Black Ember Weaver] became much more solid.
Although it was still extremely fast, weaving and dodging across the battlefield, that kind of unpredictable, teleportation-like movement never appeared again!
"efficient!"
Su Hui was overjoyed.
It seems its rule-making ability is related to eye-locking!
As long as one is under constant surveillance, it becomes impossible to easily initiate that eerie "stealth traversal".
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Harley seized the opportunity, her "Sweet" revolver spitting fire as bullets rained down.
The figure of the [Black Ember Weaver] fluctuated violently under the bombardment of bullets, exploding into clumps of scattered black ash as if it would collapse at any moment.
Su Hui also rushed forward, not using any skills but letting the azure soul flames burn on the blade. His longsword slashed at the body of the [Black Ash Weaver], each strike taking away a part of its body made of black ash.
Under the combined fire of the two, the health of [Black Ember Weaver] began to decrease slowly and steadily.
Seeing that Tina and Mary were about to finish clearing out all the split entities, the [Black Ember Weaver], which was being suppressed by Su Hui and Harley, seemed to sense an unprecedented crisis.
Its head, composed of black and gray and devoid of facial features, began to churn violently within the black and gray particles inside.
A sharp, silent scream that reached straight to the brain suddenly erupted!
The black and gray particles wrapped inside its humanoid outline began to churn and expand violently, as if something terrifying was about to burst out of its body!
A more powerful and malevolent aura emanated from it.
Su Hui was closest to the [Black Ember Weaver] and was immediately hit by a strong impact. His head buzzed and he almost lost consciousness. Fortunately, relying on his strong mental strength, he decisively withdrew and retreated, while not forgetting to shout a warning.
"Watch out! It's about to go berserk!"
Even though Su Hui's forehead was throbbing, his eyes remained fixed on the figure of the [Black Ember Weaver], not daring to be distracted.
In an instant!
The black bandages that had been wrapped around the Black Ember Weaver's body suddenly came undone!
Countless fine black and gray particles, like a flood bursting its banks, transformed into a surging black mist that swept and spread wildly in all directions!
My vision blurred instantly.
The scattered black ashes bandages did not disappear. Instead, they slithered through the black mist like venomous snakes with their own consciousness, combining into several thicker and more solid black tentacles. With terrifying power, they attacked Su Hui, Harley, Tina, and Mary respectively.
"Scatter! Don't get covered in the black mist!" Su Hui shouted sternly.
Thanks to Su Hui's timely reminder, the three women reacted quickly and immediately retreated.
Harley executed a nimble backflip, instantly creating distance between herself and the black mist. At the same time, she fired several shots at an outstretched bandage tentacle with her "Sweet" revolver. The impact of the bullets slightly slowed the tentacle's speed.
Tina and Mary also used their dodging skills to narrowly avoid the area covered by the black mist.
Su Hui was the first to be hit. Facing the onslaught of dense black mist and the attack of several bandaged tentacles, his eyes sharpened. He neither dodged nor evaded, and the azure soul flame on his [Steel-Cutting] longsword surged!
"Hey!"
He brandished his longsword, which transformed into a streak of blue light that pierced through the waves of black mist, swiftly and precisely severing several black and gray bandages that were being pulled at him.
Su Hui's innate talent proved remarkably effective at this time.
With each strike of the longsword ignited by the soul fire, the black mist bandages were ripped apart as if being torn from silk, and then quickly dissipated into black ash.
For anyone else, a single burst of power from the [Black Ember Weaver] would have made them mortally dead!
The suddenness of this outburst forced Su Hui and his three companions to retreat.
As the [Black Ember Weaver]'s outburst subsided slightly, the surrounding black mist began to recede back towards its main body, and the few remaining fragments around it collapsed to the ground, their energy being reabsorbed back into its body.
After absorbing the split entity, the [Black Ember Weaver]'s health points recovered slightly, and its form became solid again, but it was noticeably weaker.
The black and gray particles surrounding it fluctuated violently, and their shape became unstable.
Bang bang bang bang!
Harley seized the opportunity and fired the reloaded Sweet Revolver without hesitation. The energy bullets, glowing with a pale blue light, hit the [Black Ember Weaver] one after another.
Each hit causes its body to twist violently, as if it is about to disintegrate.
A large amount of black ash splattered everywhere, revealing a huge hole in his chest, and his health points decreased again.
Su Hui would naturally not let go of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
His figure transformed into lightning as he charged forward, his burning longsword slashing fiercely at the weakened body of the [Black Ember Weaver].
scoff!
The soul flames, like flaming blades, sliced into the shadowy figure's body without any resistance.
The Black Ember Weaver emitted a silent yet soul-shaking shriek. Its form resembled a torn piece of cloth, with most of its body turning to black ash under the scorching heat of its soul flames.
A large amount of black ash emanated from its body, as if its strength had been instantly drained.
This blow has dealt it an unprecedented and devastating blow!
Its health plummeted to less than 10%, reaching the kill threshold of [Soul Slash].
Just as Su Hui was preparing to press his advantage and finish off this bizarre, rule-based monster,
A sudden change occurred!
The black ash that had been receding around the [Black Ash Weaver] suddenly erupted outwards like a volcanic eruption!
Su Hui was the first to be hit. The ashes seemed to come alive and instantly adhered to his tactical jacket!
Chi Chi Chi -!
The moment the down jacket came into contact with the high concentration of black ash, it silently ignited with strange little black flames!
It turned black and damaged at a speed visible to the naked eye!
An intense burning sensation came from his skin, as if countless red-hot irons were pressed tightly against his body.
Su Hui's health points began to drop rapidly!
"Humph!"
Su Hui groaned, the intense sense of crisis forcing him to endure the excruciating pain and retreat hastily, trying to escape that deadly black and gray area.
Taking advantage of the moment Su Hui was forced back, after unleashing this final counterattack, the [Black Ember Weaver] suddenly shrank its battered body, transforming into a streak of black smoke, and fled desperately towards the deepest part of the facility, in the direction where the special energy fluctuations were most concentrated!
Su Hui's eyes turned cold; how could he let it escape so easily?
P.S.: Please exchange your coins for monthly passes to support my ranking push! Break into the top ten! Crush the top five! Aim for the top three! Take down number one! Charge ...
59. Core Formation, Decisive Strike Success! [7k]
"Want to run?"
Su Hui endured the intense burning pain on his skin after his tactical jacket was completely burned away by black ash, and looked down at it.
His exposed chest and arms were covered with hideous charred marks, as if they had been branded with a hot iron.
His health points dropped slightly during that burst of damage, and the negative effects of [Black Ash Infestation] began to take effect like a leech, continuously burning his body and mind.
Su Hui frowned; this injury was not enough to stop him.
"Chase!"
Su Hui let out a low shout, and without pausing, he followed the trail of black ash that had escaped from the [Black Ash Weaver] and the increasingly intense energy fluctuations, turning into a blur as he chased after it.
"Brother Su Hui!"
"Mr. Su Hui!"
Mary and Tina looked worried upon seeing this, but they didn't slow down and followed closely behind.
"Honey, your injury..."
Harley spoke with concern, but was stopped by a firm look from Su Hui.
The four of them, one in front and three behind, relentlessly pursued the direction in which the [Black Ember Weaver] fled, giving it no chance to catch its breath or hide again.
With his keen perception of energy fluctuations, Su Hui kept the blurry figure of the [Black Ember Weaver] locked in his line of sight.
As long as the line of sight is maintained, the opponent's strange blinking ability cannot be easily used.
After passing through the central control room area where the battle had taken place, the passageway began to extend deeper into the facility.
The deeper you go,
Su Huiyue could clearly sense that the special energy fluctuations ahead were becoming increasingly intense. Clearly, the target of the [Black Ash Weaver] was that "singularity".
The scenery along the way became increasingly bizarre.
On the originally cold and monotonous metal wall, strange, dark purple patterns began to appear, spreading like blood vessels.
These patterns emitted a faint glow, as if they possessed life, slowly wriggling on the wall.
The originally orderly metal structure has also undergone various degrees of distortion. Some parts look as if they have been forcibly stretched, while others have melted into indescribable shapes, exhibiting irregular twists and proliferations, as if it has been eroded and assimilated by some invisible force.
The concentration of dimensional energy permeating the air increased dramatically.
Dense dimensional energy surged from the depths of the facility like a tide, almost materializing.
