NFBE Chapter 403 Destruction!
Chapter 403 Destruction!
On the hillside, after the first shot hit its mark, Leng Xuan did not stop. As if he had practiced a thousand times, he loaded the second bullet into the chamber.
Just as he was about to continue searching for Loki through the scope...
Not long ago, the God of Deception, who was only a head, had somehow teleported behind him.
A strange smile appeared on his pale face.
"I never imagined that after the Dwarf King disappeared, there would still be someone in the Dwarf Clan capable of forging such a wondrous weapon..."
"Unfortunately... it's a bit too bulky..."
When Loki's voice sounded from behind him, Leng Xuan instantly felt a chill run through his body.
Wasn't His body already shattered by me?
How could it possibly gather divine power to weave schemes!
But the current situation left him no time to think about it.
In just a moment, Leng Xuan reacted, turned the gun around, and pulled the trigger.
boom! !
A violent roar sounded.
As expected, the crimson bullet imbued with divine power shattered Loki's newly formed body once again.
only.......
This time, Loki did not show any sign of pain on his face, but instead revealed a strange smile.
Just as He had guessed, the sniper rifle imbued with divine power did not have the ability to kill him.
Leng Xuan brought it here only to stall Him for a while...
"You're quite good, and Si Xiaonan is quite good too. Have you been scheming for so long just to wait for this opportunity?"
"I admit, if I had made one wrong move, I might really have been killed by you..."
"But now, you no longer have that opportunity."
Leng Xuan was unaffected by Loki's words. He endured the pain in his shoulder blade and pulled the bolt to load the third bullet.
aim......
shooting......
boom! !
Before he could prepare, Leng Xuan's tall body was sent flying backward by the strong recoil.
He groaned, bit his tongue, and forced himself to gather his almost scattered mental energy, gripping the gun handle tightly.
As the smoke cleared, Loki's illusory body solidified a bit more, and Leng Xuan knew exactly what was going on when he saw this.
This is my third shot...
It missed...
"Just a reminder... your chances are running out."
Loki's illusory fingertips emitted countless jet-black threads, slowly weaving his own flesh. He stood there motionless, yet he exerted unprecedented pressure on Leng Xuan.
"is it?"
Steadying himself, Leng Xuan made no attempt to retreat. Instead, he knelt down on the spot and pressed the fourth bullet down with trembling fingers.
The energy generated by continuous firing has not yet completely dissipated.
The heavy sniper rifle, about two meters long, gleamed a scarlet light as it overheated.
"Then what about this shot I fired?!"
After saying that, Leng Xuan took a deep breath, raised the muzzle of his gun with utmost seriousness, and pulled the trigger towards Loki, who was standing still.
boom! !
A fiery serpent carrying immense divine power seemed to emerge from the muzzle of the gun.
The crimson bullet pierced through the void and struck Loki's newly reconstructed body squarely.
"That's the fourth one... If I'm not mistaken, that gun can fire a maximum of three more bullets..."
The further damage to his body did not elicit any displeasure from Loki.
The road to Asgard has been blocked by himself, and the church is still some distance away. Si Xiaonan won't be able to get there in a while.
Without any help, all I need to do is use up all the threatening bullets in Leng Xuan's possession.
Then he is like a lamb lying on the chopping block, at the mercy of his own hand.
At that time, He will let Leng Xuan know...
What is true cruelty?
Upon hearing Loki's voice, Leng Xuan's heart was filled with turmoil.
The god of trickery, did he even foresee this step?
No... I have to think of a way to buy more time. I absolutely cannot let everyone's efforts go to waste.
With that thought in mind, Leng Xuan hugged the slender sniper rifle to his chest and ran into the depths of the desert without looking back.
"Oh? Interesting... You think... I can't catch up with you?"
Seeing Leng Xuan flee in panic, Loki sneered and disdainfully wove a 'trick' in his hand. Just as his figure gradually became illusory and he was about to teleport to Leng Xuan's side, a blood-red bullet shattered the body that he had painstakingly formed.
boom! !
As the divine power spread, Loki's elaborate scheme was forced to a halt.
He watched the disheveled figure gradually disappear from sight, his face so gloomy it was almost dripping with water.
They really seized a perfect opportunity...
That is to say, His body has not yet been fully formed, otherwise He would have arrived at Leng Xuan's side in that instant.
"I underestimated you..."
"In that case..."
As he spoke, Loki began weaving a scheme with his newly condensed right hand. Unsurprisingly, just as his teleportation 'trick' was taking shape, the fifth scarlet bullet, imbued with divine power, arrived as promised.
"That works too. The purpose was to deplete your power anyway, so dying a few more times doesn't seem like a big deal..."
And so, Loki tricked Leng Xuan out of his sixth bullet with two simple tricks.
Why wasn't a seventh one launched?
Because Leng Xuan's body could no longer hold on...
Deep in the desert, Leng Xuan lay on the scorching sand, breathing heavily.
He also discarded the slender sniper rifle beside him.
"What a... sorry state..."
After the sixth bullet was fired, the powerful recoil completely shattered his shoulder blade and ribs.
It wasn't that he didn't want to fire the seventh bullet, but that he simply couldn't.
Because of Loki's sudden appearance, Leng Xuan used the sniper rifle far more frequently than previously calculated; only a little over ten minutes had passed since Loki's resurrection.
but.......
These ten minutes felt like half a century to Leng Xuan.
"Xiao Nan... I tried my best..."
Just as he was muttering to himself, a ghostly figure suddenly appeared not far from him.
"It seems you've reached your limit..."
"Next, shouldn't it be my turn... to take revenge?"
Upon hearing Loki's voice, Leng Xuan gave a bitter smile and did not reply, simply staring blankly at the dim sky above.
"Don't worry, I won't let you die so easily..."
"Leng Xuan, do you want to become the agent of the God of Deception?"
"In that case, you will possess the divine ruins that mortals dream of."
"Are you tempted? Don't rush..."
"This time, I won't lie to you. On the contrary, I'll tell you in advance what I'm about to assign..."
"That was the divine agent who killed the previous god of trickery."
Loki's calm yet slightly amused voice echoed in Leng Xuan's ears like a murmur.
"You...you're dreaming!...I will absolutely not accept becoming an agent for a despicable rat like you!..."
"That's not up to you..."
During the conversation, Loki's figure solidified a bit more, and it was estimated that in less than ten minutes, he would be truly resurrected.
"Lovers killing each other, isn't that the ultimate torture?..."
"Hehehe... I really can't wait to see you guys again..."
After speaking, several jet-black threads emanated from Loki's fingertips. The divine power contained within them was extremely gentle. Leng Xuan, who was on the verge of death, knew very well that if he accepted this divine power, he might not have to die...
They can even possess the divine ruins that ordinary people dream of.
But he couldn't do that. He'd rather die than stand on the opposite side of his Xiao Nan in a fight to the death.
Just as he was preparing to understand himself, a figure draped in a black robe appeared in front of him without him noticing.
She gently grasped the jet-black thread that was about to pierce Leng Xuan's body.
"Thank you for your hard work. I'm sorry I'm late."
That sound.......
Upon hearing this, Leng Xuan, who was trying to understand himself, froze on the spot, an expression of disbelief on his face.
Loki, who was not far away, also had a furrowed brow.
This person...
When did you arrive here?
Why didn't I feel anything?
"Loki."
Just as He was pondering the matter, the tall, slender figure draped in a black robe slowly removed his hood.
"Some things you can't avoid..."
"Li Jie, Director of the Special Operations Division of the Great Xia Night Watchman."
"You've come to demand an explanation!"
Yes, Li Jie arrived at this crucial moment.
Although they knew the approximate location of Loki's sacrificial formation, the area of the northern desert of Asgard was simply too vast.
If it weren't for Leng Xuan's missed bullet drawing his attention, Li Jie might still be frantically searching for Loki in the desert sky.
"Li Jie?"
"Li Jie!?"
Unlike Leng Xuan's genuine joy, Loki's expression was as ugly as if he had eaten shit.
He had already foreseen in Cangnan that this white-haired boy who could kill his clone would surely become a menace in the future.
Indeed, this is true. In just a few years, almost all the gods who perished in foreign lands were related to this kid.
Reports from Asgardian intelligence were almost listing the boy as extremely dangerous.
A mere mortal has instilled fear in countless gods in the divine realm; this is truly a reversal of the natural order!
Although he was somewhat resentful, Loki dared not underestimate the white-haired boy in front of him.
The reason is simple: Li Jie's record is just too impressive...
Anyone who can chase after the Supreme Being is definitely not someone to be trifled with!
When he broke through to the highest level, he even sent someone to specifically inquire whether Li Jie was still within the territory of Great Xia.
It's not hard to see from the messages sent back by the spies that this kid did indeed return to the Great Xia after his battle with his brother and did not go out. Until an hour before he was about to break through to the highest level, the messages sent back by the spies were still unchanged.
That's why He didn't take precautions against this rumored 'Gods Harvester'.
but.......
It's pointless to say these things now, since this boy who instilled fear in countless gods is now standing right in front of him.
"Ask me for punishment? What crime have I committed?"
Pulling his thoughts back, Loki quickened his pace in solidifying his divine body while speaking to stall for time.
"Whether you are guilty or not is not up to you to decide. If I say you are guilty, then you are guilty."
Li Jie gently shook his head. He could easily see that Loki was trying to buy time and seek a glimmer of hope.
Once He has fully restored His divine body, He can use a 'trick' to transfer the fatal calamity to the other three divine avatars.
This is considered Loki's last trump card. As long as his divine power is at its peak, he essentially has three ways to escape.
But unfortunately...
"Alright, stop struggling. Even if I let you use tricks to shift the blame onto those three clones, do you think you can survive?"
"What do you mean?" Loki's eyes flashed with panic as Li Jie saw through his scheme, and he was about to ask further questions when...
Three streaks of light pierced the sky and landed steadily in front of everyone.
As the light gradually faded, Loki's panic turned into terror when he saw who it was!
The figures shrouded in the glow of the sunset were none other than the three Fairy Maidens and Loki's three divine avatars hidden throughout Asgard!
Do you recognize them?
Do you want me to introduce it to you?
Seeing Loki's expression, Li Jie chuckled and helped Leng Xuan, who was slumped on the ground, to his feet.
"Do you really think I can't find your clone?"
"Or do you really think that Konan can't find your clone...?"
boom! !
Li Jie's words exploded in Loki's ears like a thunderclap.
He had considered many possibilities regarding Li Jie's ability to find his clone, but he never expected that his most important trump card had already been predicted by Si Xiaonan, who had also revealed its exact location.
"impossible......"
"Nothing is impossible, Loki... People always pay the price for their arrogance... Even gods are no exception!"
After saying that, Li Jie hooked two fingers and summoned back the Zhuxian Sword from Xian'er's hand.
With a casual wave of his hand, a resounding sword cry filled the air.
The pure white sword light shattered the gloom in the sky.
He looked indifferently at Loki, who had an incredulous expression, and said softly.
"One sword strike, and even immortals kneel!"
In an instant, amidst the radiant glow and the flickering sword light, Loki and the three clones he used to save his life were all reduced to nothingness.
Meanwhile, Si Xiaonan, who was frantically rushing towards the northern desert, emitted a deep, eerie glow.
She stopped and suspiciously observed the changes in her body.
"This is... the law of deception?"
Before she could even confirm it, the long-sealed ceiling of human potential had already begun to loosen slightly.
Immediately afterwards, it was unable to withstand the weight of the power of the law.
Her body was on the verge of being torn apart.
"not good.....!"
Pulling herself out of her thoughts, Si Xiaonan quickened her pace without the slightest hesitation.
She was now acutely aware of her own condition; it was a sign of transformation.
Actually, she didn't know if Li Jie could solve the current situation, but this was her last hope!
