Infinite Terror: This Middle Continent is Rebellious

Chapter 69: The Day of Hunting Zheng Zha
A young Soul Reaver is planeswalked into the material world upon creation, and only needs to devour thirty humans to grow into an adult Soul Reaver.

When Zheng Zha entered the Bronx, he saw an adult soul-stealing demon who had grown into a high-level demon.

The three-meter-tall demon picked up a living person with its long fingers, and its slender claws penetrated the human body. Blood flowed out from its claws. The demon licked the human blood and bit off the neck of the living person who was still struggling in pain.

"The demon summoned by Wen Lie? An adult Soul Reaver... I remember the challenge level was 15. Its specialties include Soul-stealing Gaze, Feeding, Shadow Strike, Blasphemous Words, Energy Drain, Summoning Tower, and Life Link..."

Zheng Zha has read the Book of the Dead and knows about the demons and devils that the Book of the Dead can summon. This soul-stealing demon comes from the bottomless abyss of the DND worldview.

Although he is not a demon lord, nor as fierce as the six-armed snake demon and the Balor fire demon, he is also a powerful type.

Can he defeat this soul-stealing demon? And how much will it cost him to defeat him?
With full concentration, Zheng Zha entered the previous state again, and the computing speed of his brain increased several times.

"Adult Soul Reavers are proficient in a variety of level 7 spells. Level 7 spells are rated B-level by the Lord God, and they are initially judged to be B-level enhancers... My strength on paper is superior to that of the Soul Reaver, but the two energies interfere with each other and I cannot unleash my full power... In a head-on battle, my chances of victory are %, and I'll suffer minor to serious injuries..."

Can't fight head-on.

Infiltrate, plot secretly, and surprise attack, these three steps will give you a 90% chance of success and at most cause minor injuries.

"I'm not good at infiltration and assassination. If I were Zhao Yingkong..."

Zheng Zha observed the environment of the street in the distance, and his brain instinctively simulated Zhao Yingkong's thinking.

His aura became weak, and the energy in his body also subsided. He used Zhao Yingkong's [Absolute], but his performance was better than Zhao Yingkong himself.

Zheng Zha was like an inconspicuous shadow, silently entering the street, and the gray shadow that was difficult to distinguish with the naked eye shuttled between the buildings.

The Soul Reaver who was eating seemed to be aware of something and looked towards the apartment across the street.

Seeing nothing, the Soul-Reaver lowered its head and continued to gnaw on human flesh.

Hiding on the second floor of the apartment, Zheng Zha raised his right hand towards the Soul-Grabber Demon. A complex magic circle appeared on his palm, and a white light was faintly visible.

"Sun Ray!"

Since it was a sneak attack, there was no need for binding skills. Zheng Zha started with a big move, and dazzling light radiated from his palm.

The light curtain, less than one centimeter thick, cut through the wall and appeared on the open street. The Soul-Reaver Demon then noticed something was wrong.

The Soul-Reaver Demon subconsciously used advanced teleportation techniques to teleport himself to a collapsed road dozens of meters away, where the altar that summoned him was located.

However, this light spell has always been about speed. When the Soul-Reaver Demon moved his body, a horrible scar appeared on his chest. The crack was nearly 10 centimeters long, cutting open a small piece of the Soul-Reaver Demon's heart and almost cutting the body in half.

"Bullet time! Five times the speed!"

At this moment, a figure broke through the wall of the apartment and flew towards the Soul-Reaver like a cruise missile.

The sonic boom, moving at full speed, exploded the concrete floor, and the surrounding buildings began to shake as if they were hit by a typhoon.

At speeds above Mach 5, a distance of less than 100 meters only takes a few centiseconds.

In a split second, Zheng Zha appeared before the Soul-Grabber, his right hand, shrouded in crimson flames, raised and swung with a fierce hurricane towards the Soul-Grabber's wound.

"boom!"

The red fist slammed into the Soul-Reaver Demon's body through its wound. Fire spewed from all seven of the Soul-Reaver Demon's orifices, and its burly body was torn into pieces, with broken flesh, blood, and bones flying all over the sky.

In one round, Zheng Zha killed the Soul-Grabber Demon.

"Only 30% of my internal energy was lost..."

Then there are muscle ruptures and bone dislocations.

Zheng Zha calmly assessed his own condition, and kept his eyes and ears open, searching for Wen Lie who should be lurking nearby, while setting his own bones at the same time.

While concentrating his attention on observing the movements around him, Zheng Zha vaguely heard an inappropriate sound.

"Semper crescis, aut descrescis, Vita detestabilis, Nunc obdurat, et unc curat..." Something is singing, and it's a chorus.

It wasn't very close to here, but there were many people singing together, and the loud singing echoed in the Bronx, and could be heard even from where Zheng Zha was.

Moreover, he could hear it very clearly because Zheng Zha had very sensitive hearing.

"What song is this?"

Zheng Zha frowned involuntarily.

The powerful and compact rhythm and the majestic melody sounded like a war song, but it made him feel pressured and uncomfortable.

It was a strong feeling of discomfort, but it did not cause him any harm.

Is this some omen of death? Strange, reminding him with his strange song.

Zheng Zha quickly reconnected the dislocated bones and looked around.

Wen Lie had not appeared yet, but he felt an extremely strong sense of unease.

"Divano, Divano ble, Divano blessi, Divano blessia..."

The sense of discomfort and uneasiness became more and more intense. After Zheng Zha reconnected the bones, he prepared to make a strategic move.

However, just as Zheng Zha was about to leave, a pure white and gorgeous figure appeared before him.

"Ask me, and I will grant you all the kingdoms to inherit, and all will be yours to the ends of the earth."

A tall and burly man, holding a gun and sword, strode towards the end of the street.

"You, with a rod of black iron in your hand, will smash them to pieces like pottery."

A deep voice recited solemn scriptures, and a silver cross swayed slowly on his chest.

"Therefore, O kings, bow down and accept the instruction of the Judge of the Earth."

A breeze blew by, stirring up dust, and the hem of the holy white robe was lifted up behind, and the golden embroidery emitted a brilliant light under the scorching sun at noon.

"Serve your Lord with reverence and bow down with joy to kiss your children."

Discomfort!
Intense discomfort!
The sound of chanting made Zheng Zha's hair stand on end. He felt the blood core in his brain become restless, as if stimulated by some force and needed to be distracted to suppress.

"Divano, Divano ble, Divano blessi, Divano blessia, Divano blessia..."

Symphony of Death.

Zheng Zha had this feeling in his heart.

The beautiful and solemn performance, the timbres of trumpets, golden pipes, various orchestral instruments, and the loud voice of the singers, resounded across the battlefield, accompanying Wen Lie's chanting and Zheng Zha's death.

The sky seemed to foreshadow Zheng Zha's death and cried silently, and hazy rain and mist fell from the sky.

"For the wrath of Heaven will send you on the path of destruction, and its wrath will spread so quickly."

We can't let him continue!
Zheng Zha pulled out the high-vibration particle cutting dagger, his eyes were solemn, his skin and muscles cracked again, and his sense of time increased fivefold.

The moment his right foot stepped forward, Zheng Zha's left foot landed in front of Wen Lie, who was a hundred meters away. He raised the dagger and stabbed Wen Lie's shoulder mercilessly.

"Burn it all, and they will have nothing to rely on. Amen."

The sword blade shining with silver light blocked the dagger's blade. Their eyes met, and rain and fog hung down as a curtain between them. A huge force covered Zheng Zha's body. Zheng Zha was shocked and flew backwards.
