Devil's Bible

The masked man's swordsmanship was quite good.

After all, he is someone who can elevate his skills through swordsmanship.

In the City of Silver, these people are all quite talented.

After all, they don't have Black Stone or Steel species.

The only way to cultivate is through the alchemy process of the Silver City, using rituals to condense cards.

Anyone who can elevate their skills to become a card user is a prodigy in the outside world.

Unfortunately, he encountered Nems.

Currently, there are not many people in the entire world who can match him in swordsmanship.

Even if the legendary sword saints of the past were to be resurrected, they would most likely be no match for Nemus.

The one that can beat Nemus is most likely a Mythic species.

They have plenty of time to hone their swordsmanship.

Since the birth of heaven and earth from mud, the concept of the sword has emerged in the Golden Age.

Now, in this final era, countless people practice swordsmanship.

Only the mythical species has survived to this day.

In this situation, Nemus's swordsmanship is not bad in terms of skill level, but his training depth may be inferior.

Therefore, for the masked man to draw his sword in front of him was tantamount to courting death.

"He's exhausted!" The masked man looked at the deep, bone-piercing wounds on his body, fear and joy alternating in his eyes.

Normally, after Nemus seized the sword, he should have killed him with a single strike.

They had already noticed that Nemus's stats surpassed those of the Card Master and were comparable to those of a typical Silver-tier character.

However, this sword strike only severely injured him, but did not kill him.

This shows that Nems is running out of strength.

If this drags on, Nemus will definitely run out of energy and then be defeated.

However, this joy was quickly overshadowed by the pain in her side.

The pica who was fighting Emerson just moments before has now appeared beside him, and several cards have been linked together to form the ghoul's killing move - Heart Eater!
This move can both inflict a devastating internal attack on the enemy and absorb the enemy's life force in the process, thereby strengthening one's own defense.

In short, this is a combination move that integrates offense and defense.

It was used on him, but not on the enemy.

"Since you are already seriously injured and unable to fight, then sacrifice your life." The pica had no shame whatsoever. In comparison, Emerson, although much weaker, was now focused on targeting and guarding against him.

Therefore, since Emerson was difficult to kill, the masked man, who was seriously injured and less wary of him, became the best sacrifice.

As the masked man breathed his last, the "Celebration of the Feast of Devouring" scroll that the pica had previously unfolded began to emit a scarlet, foul-smelling light.

The masked man's body withered rapidly, as if an unseen monster was frantically devouring his life force.

Those with pica feel as if countless corpses are writhing and roaring inside their bodies.

It's as if there's a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood inside my body.

Although this mountain of corpses and sea of ​​blood is not peaceful, as long as it is not exhausted, one will have a continuous source of life force to replenish it.

Some of it can even be wasted, and this vitality can be used for various physical and mental tasks.

"This is the drawback of specializing in swordsmanship: insufficient endurance, making it impossible to fight for long periods of time."

"And my ghoul's rubber skin is a natural weapon of restraint."

"If I continue to wear you down with this inexhaustible vitality, I will be the one to win!!"

The emotions of someone with pica are constantly rising.

Faced with this pica, Nemus merely glanced at him slightly, smiled, and then looked at the phantom.

“Your secret technique is quite interesting. Show me more of it,” Nemus said.

The pica sufferer was stunned; the humiliation of being ignored made him tremble slightly. If Nemus were at his peak, even with the [Feast of Devouring Celebration] activated, he wasn't necessarily confident he could fight Nemus head-on.

But now, Nemus is almost exhausted and doesn't even have the strength to chop people.

Even under these circumstances, Nems still looked down on him.

Pica inevitably brings back memories of the past.

In the past, he was under the command of the Lord of the Desolate Tomb, but because of his talent, he was suppressed by the Lord of the Desolate Tomb.

He was assigned to be a silver hunter.

Silver hunters are indeed a path, but it's not an easy one.

Because he had to enter the path of despair, he wasn't actually a Silver-ranked person most of the time.

If you can't advance to the Silver rank, then you can't become a leader.

If you can't become a leader, you can't systematically exploit others.

If you can't exploit others, you'll never become someone superior!

This is the understanding of pica, and because of this implicit suppression, he immediately betrayed Morro when he realized he couldn't beat him.

Moro is the next big thing in Silver City.

He needs to seize this opportunity, grow stronger and stronger, until no one can eat him, until he can eat everyone!

Nemes's contempt and disdain triggered pica.

Under this stimulation, his spirit began to rise and change rapidly, which then propelled a transformation within the sea of ​​corpses and blood in his heart.

He devoured the power within, feeling his body begin to swell.

At this moment, he truly felt a trace of the will of the Ghoul King.

That kind of kingly will that refuses to be eaten and can only devour others.

This moment pushes him to become stronger.

The pica expert had a premonition that if he could acquire some core cards related to ghouls in the future, he would be able to quickly become the new King of Ghouls.

When that time comes, he will be able to challenge the Lord of the Desolate Tomb and become the new Great Leader.

The mental stimulation from his own successful promotion made him suddenly lunge at Nems.

The rubber on his body became more flexible, and his strength became even greater. In fact, the moment he lunged at you, you felt as if death was attacking you.

Nemus gripped his sword, sensing his own physical strength.

Then draw a card.

[Sword Technique: Flying Star Combo] [Sword Slash] [Hood Strike]

The three cards were triggered by Nemus's sword strike, creating a chain reaction.

Then, in the next moment, Nemus felt a slight resonance from the card.

A glint of sword light merged entirely into it.

Looking at the sword that had pierced his body, he felt his ghoul heart stop beating.

The person with pica opened their mouth as if to say something.

But then he had no strength left.

The life force provided by the card continues to flow into the body, but this life force is just that—life force—and cannot truly save a life.

The person with pica began to writhe and convulse all over their body, 'eating' everything in their body.

The vigorous vitality, ironically, became the foundation of this self-eating.

Soon, the pica creatures lost their human form and turned into a mass of rotten flesh that kept devouring each other.

Only the phantom figure took half a step back and couldn't help but look at the other side of Nemus's finger, where some crystalline powder began to drift away.
