In just a moment, she would be torn to pieces by this ferocious combined attack.
"You are in an attacking posture now, right? Maybe you don't have enough time to adjust your state and defend yourself..."
The bearded man had a bloodthirsty and cruel smile on his face as he thought with malicious intent.
"What a pity! This kind of attack will most likely destroy your beautiful body, and you won't be able to use it anymore..."
But destroying beautiful things with your own hands is also a very pleasant experience, isn't it?
The next second, two sword lights containing spiritual power collided with each other with the girl's body as the center!
Chapter 202 Courage is commendable
The half-real and half-virtual scarlet spiritual blade and the twisted long sword wrapped in a strong destructive aura pierced through the girl's body almost at the same time.
"what?!"
However, the bearded man noticed very familiarly that the touch of the sharp blade in his hand was not the same feeling as when it pierced into a human body!
"Damn it... again!"
Having had this experience, he immediately realized what had happened, cursed fiercely, and then shouted hurriedly:
"This is a stand-in!"
"Oh!"
The twisted sword in the hand of the suited man Burton suddenly burst out with a strong crimson light, followed by a wave of hot air spreading from the tip of the sword.
In an instant, the girl's body was torn apart from the inside.
The fragments flew in the air, then quickly faded in color, lost their original shape, and turned into drops of viscous liquid like petroleum.
Burton's face darkened, and he realized that the combined attack of the two failed to directly hit the enemy's body.
He calmly turned his wrist, causing the sword to deviate slightly in direction, just enough to hit the side of the bearded man's spiritual blade.
"boom!"
There was a heavy muffled sound when the two collided, and a powerful impact force exploded from the intersection, shaking the weapons of both men away.
Instead of being disrupted, the two people's movements adjusted their bodies in a very tacit understanding, and used the outward thrust to turn their bodies and stand firmly again with their backs against each other.
"Mage?"
Burton asked in a low voice, frowning.
The bearded man answered angrily, "I don't know, it should be."
"You're here too," a figure quickly emerged from the air not far away, and a clear and pleasant voice floated over, "Just right, it saves me the trouble of looking for you."
It was Qi Ji.
Burton maintained his original position and moved his sword to point at the ground under Qi Ji's feet:
"who are you?"
"I should be the one asking you this," Qi Ji said with a cold smile, without any tone, "The Church of Life?"
When they heard the other party say this name, they were both stunned for a moment, and then the murderous intent in their eyes became even stronger.
Seeing that they didn't reply, Qi Ji chuckled and continued to talk to himself:
"Why did you attack this orphanage? Don't tell me you really just wanted money."
Even a three-year-old child wouldn't be fooled by this reason.
The two still didn't reply. Burton suddenly kicked the ground without warning, and his body quickly retreated to the side, rapidly putting distance between him and Qi Ji.
As soon as he made a move, the bearded man swung his spiritual blade and charged towards Qi Ji again.
At the same time, Burton, who had retreated several meters away, raised his sword, pointed the crooked tip of the sword at Qi Ji, his lips moving rapidly.
A dazzling blood-red light shot out from the tip of the sword and hit the opponent's torso!
Qi Ji just watched the two men's actions quietly, without dodging or evading.
He let Burton's red light and the bearded man's slashing blow on him, letting himself be torn into pieces.
Then, it reappeared intact out of thin air a few meters away:
"Continue?"
She spoke in a leisurely tone, with her hands behind her waist and her head slightly tilted, with an expression that said, "It doesn't matter what you do to me."
"Shit, this is never going to end!"
The bearded man was so angry at this disgusting way of beating that he started cursing loudly, but his body showed no signs of stagnation at all.
He changed direction very smoothly and attacked Qi Ji for the third time.
"you……"
"Can……"
“It’s true…”
"patience……"
Qi Ji was crushed again and again by the various attacks from the two, and appeared in other places unscathed again and again, and during this time he did not forget to tease them intermittently in a tone that made people ask for a beating.
"That won't work, she's playing with us!"
After a few rounds, the bearded man quickly realized that he had to change his tactics, so he stopped attacking and went on the defensive.
Burton also stopped. From a distance of four or five meters, he stared carefully at the cloaked girl who had condensed from the void for who knows how many times, and suddenly sneered:
"Her real body isn't here."
"Wait, you mean..."
The bearded man frowned slightly at first, then his eyes widened in sudden enlightenment:
"I see. This is just a projection of hers. She doesn't have much power at all. She can only delay time by hiding!"
He understood a lot in an instant!
The only time this cloaked girl attacked him from the side since her appearance was at the very beginning.
In the following time, she just passively took the beating and did not fight back at all.
This behavior is simply confusing, but as long as we assume that she is not actually a real person, there will be no problem!
How to fight back against a projection condensed by spiritual means?
No wonder nothing happened no matter how hard you hit it - it's just an illusion, it doesn't really exist, how can you destroy it?
As for how she knocked herself away in the first place... the answer is simple, that attack was not initiated by her at all!
The bearded man recalled carefully and found that the situation was: he had just turned around and assumed a blocking posture, the weapon condensed by his spirituality was shattered, and he himself flew backwards.
Throughout the whole process, he didn't see the source of that power.
It is very likely that it is some special interference spell that can cause the spiritual power in operation to become disordered and thus collapse and disintegrate.
What knocked him away was not the attack launched by the girl, but the sharp blade condensed by spirituality in his hand!
It was disturbed by the girl's magic, and it collapsed on its own, blowing him away!
"Then where is her real body?" The bearded man was completely convinced by his own speculation. He glanced at his companion Burton anxiously and asked, "Can you find it?"
"I'm trying," Burton said, holding the twisted sword, with a serious look on his face. "This girl is quite good at hiding her aura. I can't sense her spiritual fluctuations for the time being."
"what?"
Qi Ji was slightly stunned when he heard the judgments made by the two people opposite him, and for a moment he was unable to keep up with their thinking.
After a few seconds, she finally realized what was going on and was immediately at a loss whether to laugh or cry:
"You think I'm not real?"
"Don't be so arrogant, you little bitch," the bearded man glared at her face fiercely, "I'll catch you and show you how I'll deal with you!"
As he spoke, he licked his lips with greed and malice:
"I will smash every bone in your body, dig out your eyes and let you eat them, cut open your belly millimeter by millimeter and pull out your intestines, and split you in half vertically from the crotch with a rusty iron sheet...
"Don't worry, you will stay absolutely sober during this period... Hehe, Burton is the best at this..."
Faced with such terrible intimidation, Qi Ji was completely indifferent and walked towards the bearded man at a leisurely pace:
"Really? I don't believe it."
“Just continue to be so proud.” The viciousness and cruelty in his eyes almost solidified into substance. “The more proud you are now, the funnier the expression on your face will be when I break you into pieces bit by bit…”
Qi Ji walked to a distance of one or two meters in front of him, stretched out his hand, and pointed at his chest with his palm:
"So, are you hiding now or not?"
“Don’t bluff me,” the bearded man looked at her fearlessly without dodging, “The projection you made has too many flaws. There is not even a spiritual fluctuation. If you pay a little attention, you can find the problem.”
At this distance, Qi Ji's fair and beautiful face was clearly visible, making him a little dazed.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, it's really beautiful," he laughed obscenely, "I wonder if your original body looks the same? If so... hehe, I have many new and interesting ways to play, there must be one that you can't stand..."
"Well...what should I say?" Qi Ji shrugged helplessly, "You are courageous."
Then, he suddenly turned his wrist.
Chapter 203: Body Exchange
At the same time as her wrist turned, Burton, who was standing by with his sword pointed at the ground, suddenly changed his expression and shouted:
"Get out of the way!"
At the same time, he swung the hand that was not holding the sword vigorously, and a stream of swirling air was thrown out and rushed towards the side of the bearded man.
"Ok?"
The bearded man heard his companion's slightly panicked voice, turned his head slightly, and was about to ask the reason, but his movements suddenly froze.
He moved his neck slowly, lowered his head and looked at his chest.
His expression froze in an instant.
Behind him, Burton stood there sluggishly, his pupils contracting sharply.
He saw that there was a big hole in the middle of the bearded man's torso, where his chest and vest met!
There were no signs, no noise.
At the same moment when the cloaked girl twisted her wrist, a perfectly round blood hole the size of a bowl suddenly appeared.
It completely penetrated the bearded man's body, and through it, he could even see the scenery on the opposite side clearly.
It was as if the flesh and blood of that piece of space was wiped out out of thin air.
On that smooth and flawless cross-section, various human organs were wriggling.
The spine, covered with bloodshot veins, was broken into two pieces, and the blood-red heart was exposed, beating again and again; the two lungs were symmetrically distributed, expanding and contracting like balloons.
"Ugh... Ugh!"
The next second, the bearded man's face turned ashen, and his facial features were squeezed together in pain.
Because his spine was severed, his lower body immediately lost control and he collapsed like a piece of soft boiled noodles.
"Uh... cough cough... well..."
Blood and various body fluids gushed out of the hole, and sticky blood seeped out of his mouth and nose, blocking his speech and breathing.
"Damn it!"
Burton immediately kicked his legs back and retreated rapidly to the rear.
He swung the sword in his hand with force, and the twisted but sharp blade cut through the air, emitting a blinding scarlet light amid the whistling sound.
Along the trajectory of the sword tip in mid-air, an arc-shaped translucent "crescent" was condensed by the shining red light.
Once it took shape, it trembled and attacked Qi Ji, trying to cut her in half.
Qi Ji didn't even look at the scarlet arc of light. He took a step forward and walked towards Burton who was retreating rapidly:
"Do you still think I'm fake now?"
