Mystery: Big Alarm Clock Ghroth Path

Chapter 163: Battle (Thanks to Li Lyy for the reward of Qidian coins) ( coins)
Although Roger had not yet reached the Sequence 5 "Shepherd" level on the "Secret Prayer" path, as a "Rose Bishop", he already had a lot of knowledge about flesh and blood magic.

One of them is that the flesh and blood separated from the "Rose Bishop" can contain triggering conditions through the will of its owner.

For example, the triggering conditions of the two fingers Roger gave to Klein and Alice were "when extraordinary power threatens their lives", so the two fingers were automatically triggered when Klein fought with Jerry Spencer, and when Alice was attacked by the insane Christopher Yeaman, respectively, and launched the defense + attack and defense effects according to the different magics buried in advance.

The triggering condition for Mr. A to give Roger the finger was obviously another one besides "Roger was in danger of his life."

That means someone is openly blaspheming the true Creator!
While on Sefirah Castle, the Tarot Club had certainly committed many acts of blasphemy, including Roger himself making similar remarks in real life, but Mr. A's fingers seemed to have no reaction due to the special nature of Sefirah Castle and the contamination of Roger's own high status.

At this moment, Nicolas Pascal's words obviously touched Mr. A's reverse scale and aroused strong hostility from this finger!
After shrinking violently, the finger suddenly exploded and turned into a large piece of flesh and blood, flying quickly towards Nicholas Pascal!
Nicholas Pascal's expression changed slightly, and before he could make any move, he was wrapped up by the fragments of flesh and blood.

The innermost layer of flesh and blood fragments immediately turned into a huge "blanket", wrapping Nicolas Pascal in it.

The next moment, the flesh fragments that were still floating on the outside of the thick flesh and blood magic carpet suddenly turned into more than a dozen extremely sharp flesh and blood spears, piercing the flesh and blood magic carpet through and through!
Roger didn't know if it was his own illusion, but the flesh spears stuck in the flesh carpet looked somewhat like the "True Creator" hanging upside down on the cross...

"Is this also some kind of ceremony to pay tribute to the 'True Creator'?"

Roger was making guesses in his mind, but soon he realized something was wrong.

Logically speaking, considering Pascal's bloated figure, a large amount of fat or blood would have flowed out after being stabbed by more than a dozen flesh-and-blood spears.

At the very least, there should be a stronger smell of blood.

However, Roger could only smell the bloody smell produced when "Mr. A"'s fingers exploded, and there was no other bloody smell at all.

This means that Nicholas Pascal did not die in this wave of attacks!

Sure enough, Pascal's figure quickly appeared at the side, intact.

A small black magic book with strange patterns drawn on it appeared in the hands of this middle-aged man with a big belly.

A white light appeared on the magic book and disappeared in a flash.

Roger's eyes lit up. This was exactly the Sequence 6 Seal that the Abraham family had lost.

"John's magic book!"

"Did he use his Stand ability just now? Or was it Flash?"

Because of their deep esoteric connection, Roger already had a certain understanding of 'John's Magic Book'.

这件封印物能够记录10种可以一次性使用的序列9到序列7非凡能力，或者5种左右的序列6到序列5非凡能力。

If we don't consider retaining other abilities, this seal can even store extraordinary abilities that are influenced by divinity!

In the previous deep secret ceremony, Roger could only feel this thing flowing into Blaise Pascal's hands, but Roger could not feel the details such as what kind of abilities were stored in it.

In other words, Nicolas Pascal alone may possess more than 10 extraordinary abilities at the same time!

Sure enough, after the "magic carpet of flesh and blood" realized that Nicolas Pascal had escaped, it immediately reorganized its shape, turned into a huge mouth, and pounced on him.

A paper substitute that had been pierced all over also fell to the ground.

This is the “paper substitute” of the “magician”!
However, Roger was more concerned about another thing.

That is Mr. A's finger, which can actually launch multiple powerful attacks!

"This is Sequence 5 Flesh and Blood Magic..."

Roger's eyes moved slightly.

At this moment, the huge mouth of flesh and blood was like a living flesh and blood puppet, fighting with Nicholas Pascal.

On the other hand, more than a dozen waiters in the "Brothers Tavern" also left their seats, took out pistols and talismans, and prepared to attack Roger and the other three!
They wanted to take advantage of their numbers to kill and delay Roger and his three companions as much as possible, and then come to help after Nicolas Pascal dealt with the finger.

Considering the powerful strength of this East District boss, Roger and his men will definitely die here!
However, before they could take a few steps, a large amount of mist suddenly gushed out from the exhaust vent above the "Brothers Bar", covering the entire first floor in an instant!
This instantly obscured the vision of most of the guys, and only three of them were still able to rely on their keen senses or smell to keep their steps unaffected.

In the white fog, a big man about two meters tall was about to use a talisman he was carrying to disperse the white fog around him, but suddenly he felt a strong light burst out in front of his eyes!
The strong light almost blinded him, and as he stepped back in pain, he felt his shoulders suddenly sink.

What the hell?
He was filled with doubts and reached for his left shoulder in panic, but touched something furry.

This is exactly the coat of the tabby cat Bandit.

The cat meowed harmlessly, and then a strong electric current began to emanate from its body.

This is Sequence 7 level "Electric Shock"!
The electric current immediately passed through the burly man's arms and shoulders and quickly spread throughout his body.

Even though the man was of extraordinary physique, he could hardly withstand this terrifying electric current.

He could hardly even make a sound and fell to the ground with a thud.

The sound immediately caused chaos, but before others could react, several more heavy sounds of people falling were heard.

Bandit's tactics were similar to the ones Alice had used in the morning, except that they were more cautious. He first used fog to divide the battlefield, and then used "flash" to blind people.

Moreover, it is very cunning and its targets are those who subconsciously take out pistols and talismans.

In comparison, the possibility of such people being extraordinary is relatively small.

Even if it is truly an Extraordinary, its strength is unlikely to exceed Sequence 8. A Sequence 7 Extraordinary cat like it can completely handle it.

For it, electric shock is only the last resort for harvesting, and before that, those who are not extraordinary people have already lost their combat effectiveness!

The three people who rushed over, ignoring the influence of the white fog, each chose an opponent and started fighting with Roger, Klein, and Alice in close combat.

The man who approached Roger held a dagger in his hand and stabbed at him with great speed.

"A Beyonder skilled in combat...is he a 'Hunter', a 'Combat Scholar', or a 'Warrior'?
"It's most likely a hunter, otherwise it wouldn't explain such a keen sense of direction and intuition..."

Since Roger himself is not good at fighting, and the opponent will not be affected by the fog, he uses the fog to provide cover for himself in disguise.

Moreover, this man was obviously experienced in combat. After approaching Roger, he did not continue to hold the dagger in his hand, but directly threw it out in the form of a flying knife, shooting towards Roger's eyes!
After Blaise Pascal's accident, Nicolas Pascal sent people to investigate the scene and obtained information that someone in Roger's team was good at mind control.

At this moment, this extraordinary person is obviously trying to avoid being controlled by Roger's method of shocking his mind. Even if Roger can use a substitute, he will most likely not have time to react and the dagger will directly pass through his eyeball and hit his brain!
The brain is the key to the "Rose Bishop".

However, contrary to his expectations, the flying dagger suddenly stopped one centimeter away from Roger's eyes.

Roger's originally crystal clear blue eyes became a little cloudy, and their texture looked like glass.

Not only that, his entire head became extremely stiff, making a slight "clicking" sound. He turned to look at the extraordinary person who threw the dagger in the fog, stretched out his ten fingers that were reflecting the light, and aimed at the other party.

Even the dagger in the air suddenly turned and aimed at its original owner.

The extraordinary man suddenly had a very bad premonition, but before he could react, he was pierced into a sieve by ten fingers as sharp as knife tips and his own dagger.

"thump!"

The extraordinary person's face was full of disbelief, and he fell straight to the ground.

he died.

Roger's overall condition immediately returned to normal. He quickly repaired his ten fingers and moved his wrist.

"This is the power of 'Puppet'..."

Previously, he had deliberately exposed a flaw to the Beyonder who was suspected to be the "Hunter", and took advantage of the brief flaw after the Hunter shot a dagger at close range to use his "Puppet" ability to kill him.

Otherwise, Roger could use his "Shit Stirrer" ability to control everyone present as soon as the fog started to rise, so that the "Hunter" wouldn't be able to even move, let alone perform those fancy operations to try to counterattack.

In this way, he successfully tested a practical method of "puppetry".

"I didn't mean to kill you, but instead of surrendering, you tried to kill me first. There's nothing I can do."

Roger looked at the "hunter" on the ground and shook his head.

On the other side, Klein had also dealt with the opponent who was close to him. He also threw two flying cards and killed another guy who was controlled by Alice's "Flash".

This was a trick Alice had learned from her "predecessor" Bandit. When bursts of light appeared in the white mist just now, she, who was also a "master of magic", had already realized what the tabby cat had done.

At this moment, Roger suddenly felt a burning breath rushing towards him.

Without thinking, he activated his "Dawn Armguards", used the agility and strength bonus it brought, hugged Alice and rolled to the side.

Klein also used "Fire Jump" to instantly move away from his original position.

"Boom!"

Small explosions occurred in several locations within the "Brothers Bar", which quickly neutralized the mist in the air, causing it to vaporize and fly out through the exhaust vents.

This caused most of the thick fog to dissipate in an instant.

"The ability of an arsonist?"

Roger narrowed his eyes and looked in the direction where the fireball came from.

That was exactly where Nicolas Pascal stood. The magic book in his hand was glowing red and yellow simultaneously. The energy of the flesh monster transformed by Mr. A's fingers had been largely wasted. It was now almost a cube of flesh, seemingly imprisoned by some invisible space.

The next second, Nicholas' lips moved slightly, and a green smoke appeared in the invisible space. As soon as the flesh and blood monster touched the smoke, it quickly collapsed and carbonized and turned into nothing.

On the other hand, a green light appeared on the magic book, and then the red and yellow lights disappeared.

"The 'imprisonment' of the 'Judge' and the 'poisonous vapor' of the 'Devil'...

Roger narrowed his eyes and quickly made a judgment in his mind.

Both of these are Sequence 6 abilities. Adding in the "Paper Man Substitute" and "Fireball" that Nicholas had used previously, as well as the "Summoning Holy Light" that he had used once when fighting the Flesh and Blood Maw, the remaining energy in "John's Magic Book" should have been used up by more than half.

This can be confirmed because the method of using "John's Magic Book" is to turn the pages to the corresponding chapter and then silently recite the corresponding trigger words in ancient Hermetic language.

Then "John's Magic Book" will emit a light and release the selected magic.

And Nicholas has been doing this just now.

Roger couldn't help but praise Mr. A in his heart. If it weren't for the finger he gave him that consumed half of the power stored in "John's Magic Book", he would probably have to go through a lot more trouble.

But on the other hand, Nicholas has never used his own abilities, which makes Roger still feel a little wary.

At this moment, there were only 6 waiters and bartenders still standing in the bar. They had escaped the control of the white fog, and no one knew where Bandit had run to.

There were several guys lying on the ground who had been given "electric therapy" and temporarily lost their minds. This was the cat's masterpiece.

"Why do I feel like I'm raising a Pikachu instead of a cat..."

Roger's mouth twitched as he threw the Beyonder characteristic that the "Hunter" had previously extracted to Klein, then placed one hand on the corpse's head.

The flesh and blood of the corpse quickly gathered towards Roger's arm, strengthening his flesh and blood reserves.

After a while, the originally intact body was reduced to a set of clothes and fell to the ground.

This weird and abstract scene made the bartenders and waiters' eyes twitch wildly and fear appeared in their eyes.

After doing this, he turned to look at Nicolas Pascal and spoke again:
"Hand over the magic book Blaise sold you, and I'll let you choose a more comfortable death."

As he spoke, he stretched out his left hand and pointed it at the people at the other end of the bar.

As those people watched in horror, Roger's wrist shot out many "threads" made of flesh and blood. These threads landed on the table, the clothes of the bartender and the waiters, and instantly turned into balls of thread.

These balls of thread are all flesh and blood bombs of the "Rose Bishop". They are a silent deterrent.

If they dare to act rashly again, these bombs will explode immediately.

Sequence 6 flesh and blood magic was enough to turn everyone here except Nicholas Pascal into a pulp.

But on the other hand, Roger gave them another chance.

As long as they don't help Nicolas Pascal, he won't detonate these bombs!

Nicolas Pascal was immediately enraged when he heard Roger's words, pointing at him and angrily scolding:
"How dare you talk about Blaise, you damn bastard! You've driven him crazy! He's a useless man!"

In a rage, he activated "John's Magic Book" again and threw a blazing red and almost white flaming spear at Roger.

Who knew that Roger just hooked his finger slightly, and all the low-alcohol beer and wine in the wine rack behind the bartender flew out.

These wine bottles were stacked up in front of Roger and the other two. As the flaming spears collided with the wine bottles, they all exploded and spurted out a large amount of non-combustible liquid.

A large amount of liquid immediately extinguished most of the flaming spear, and the broken glass gathered together again in an instant, turning into an extremely hard and thick partition, which forcibly blocked the remaining force of the spear and destroyed it completely.

But at the same time, Roger heard a sharp cutting sound!
The thick glass partition in front of him suddenly shattered, and Nicolas Pascal's fat and bloated body flew into the air, passed through the broken glass, and pounced towards him!
The middle-aged man's legs and feet were extremely agile at this time, and he no longer limped as before. His right hand held the dim "John's Magic Book" and his left hand was surrounded by a thin stream of wind, stabbing towards Roger's head!
Roger was shocked. He had no way to avoid such a close attack.

Without hesitation, he immediately launched a blood and flesh self-destruction!
This allowed him to dodge Nicholas Pascal's wind blade attack and also spared some of his flesh and blood to protect Klein and Alice.

On the other hand, the impact of the explosion knocked Nicholas Pascal, who was flying in the air, away.

When Nicholas fell to the ground again, his left hand had been blown away by Roger's flesh and blood bomb, and his abdomen was also blurred.

He watched as Roger's flesh and blood reassembled, returned to the beige windbreaker in which he had cut a big hole, and stood up barefoot.

The tall young man's face was a little pale, but he showed a smile of sudden enlightenment.

"Now I know you are the Wind-loving One. You previously concealed your abilities so you could deliver a fatal blow to me at the crucial moment.

"And you pretended to be lame. I have to say you are really scheming."

Then he shook his head again:

"You just said how pitiful Blaise was, but in reality, he only brought this upon himself. If you dare to use my family's belongings to make money from the dead, you must be prepared to pay a heavy price.

“And you, too.

"You no longer have the ability to fight... Of course, you can still choose to continue using the power in this magic book.

"But what I want to tell you is that I know this magic book very well. I know that it can only store one Sequence 6 level magic, or two Sequence 7 level magics at most.

"But you should also know that this level of power is completely useless to me.

"So, I say it again, hand over the magic book, and I won't kill these men of yours."

After Roger finished speaking, he waved his hand and the glass fragments on the ground rose into the air again, surrounding Nicholas Pascal.

These fragments can launch a fatal attack at any time and end the opponent's life!

Nicolas Pascal's lips moved slightly, his eyes showed a strong unwillingness, and finally he sighed slightly.

He opened his mouth and said:
“Your power is indeed strong.

"When I was young, I fought against several 'Rose Bishops', but none of them were as strong as you... I can even sense that you're not serious at all."

Roger nodded, acknowledging what Nicolas Pascal said.

In the battle just now, he did not use the ability of the "Judgment Star" path at all, but used the ability of the "Rose Bishop" in conjunction with his "Puppet" seal to fight.

After all this trouble, Roger's understanding of the little duck has deepened to a certain extent.

The only thing that made him feel sorry was that because his opponent always wanted to blow his head off with a sharp weapon, Roger never had the chance to use the "Source of Curse" effect of "Puppetry Control".

Nicolas Pascal paused and continued:

"Don't kill my brother, and leave my men alone."

"Don't worry, I keep my promise."

Roger nodded, stretched out his hand, and took the "John's Magic Book" handed to him by Nicolas Pascal.

Then he stood up and manipulated numerous glass fragments to end Nicolas Pascal's life.

"call……"

Roger let out a long sigh and beckoned to Alice, signaling her to come up and collect Nicholas's "Wind-loving" extraordinary characteristic.

Then he spoke to the still frightened people in the Brothers Bar:
“I’ve left too much evidence here, this bar is in jeopardy.

“But I just said, I won’t kill you, you can leave.

“After that, you can find a way to avenge your boss, or you can elect a new boss. It’s up to you either way.

"But please remember, I have planted flesh bombs in your bodies. If you attempt to endanger my life or the lives of those around me, or tell anyone about what happened today, you will die immediately.

"Understand?"

In response to Roger's question, everyone at the scene nodded in agreement, then dragged those who had fainted away and fled the scene.

"Teacher, we have collected all the Beyonder characteristics. Nicolas Pascal does not have any other Beyonder items."

Alice whispered, three bottles in her hands.

Including the "Hunter" Beyonder that Klein had, the three of them had obtained a total of four Beyonders.

Roger nodded and opened "John's Magic Book".

It records the last sequence 7 level magic "Fire Crow Magic".

"It seems Marcus really likes the abilities of the Hunter Path..."

Roger curled his lips slightly, and then read out the word "Fire Crow" in Hermes.

Four fire crows flew out one after another, and the "Brothers Bar" was instantly engulfed in a sea of fire...
