Chapter 144: Winter Girl

Along with the fallen tree, appearing in front of Ulysses was a huge humanoid monster three meters tall. The humanoid monster was wearing only a pair of black shorts, and the rest of its body was exposed in the air. The body exposed to the air was made up of weird muscles. That was not the muscle that a normal human should have. The surface of all muscles exuded a lead-black metallic luster. The blood vessels, muscles, and nerves all emerged on the surface of the skins like earthworms.

The humanoid monster had messy black hair like a bird's nest and a pair of yellow eyes with a fierce, no, frantic gaze. The ugly lead-black face always reminded people of those ferocious cannibal magic beasts involuntarily. It was holding a huge black sword in his hand. the sword was more than two meters long and about half a meter wide. The sword body did not have any sharp edges. It was more appropriate to say that it was a huge sword-shaped stone than a sword.

Standing beside this humanoid monster was a young girl in an out-of-season winter coat. It was a lavender winter coat. The front of the coat was two rows of transparent crystal buttons, and she was also wearing a snow-white scarf around her neck. The big coat covered her small body, and she also wore a lavender hat on her head, which made people think of the word "winter" when they saw her.

The young girl's facial skin was as fine as fresh snow in winter. Her long and transparent silver hair like the ice and snow of the far north was hanging on her frail shoulders, and her pair of ruby-clear eyes were looking at Ulysses, showing a look of curiosity on her childish and delicate cute face.

Her height was about 1.3 or 1.4 meters. Standing next to the humanoid monster more than three meters tall, it formed a sharp contrast. Moreover, she suddenly appeared on a deserted island where there should be no humans, which made people feel strange at first glance.

But it was not the only thing that made people feel strange. After the girl appeared, the temperature within tens of meters nearby dropped by more than ten degrees. The dew on the leaves next to it was even frozen, it was almost like this place had suddenly entered into a severe winter. The sudden drop in temperature caused Lulu in Ulysses's arms to start shaking.

The huge humanoid monster, the silver-haired girl in out-of-season winter clothes, and the sudden drop in temperature, all of this gave off a strange feeling, which made Ulysses alert.

"Big Brother? What's wrong? Is there anything that makes you worried? Tell me, maybe I can help you. Also, Big Brother, can you tell me your name?" The girl smiled and said. Her innocent smile made Ulysses a little relieved.

"Nothing. I just want to go back to my ship. My name is Ulysses, what is your name? Why are you alone..." Ulysses looked at the humanoid monster next to her, paused, and then hesitatingly said, "What are you and your companions doing on this deserted island far away from the continent?"

"Nice to meet you, Big Brother Ulysses, my name is Iphia! The one next to me is my guard Hercules." The girl Iphia held the skirt politely and performed the etiquette used by the continent nobles. Then she continued with a smile, (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});

"I did not come to this island from the continent. This island is my home. It is also the place I need to protect. The duty of Hercules and I are to eliminate all foreigners that invade this island. So I'm sorry, Big Brother. Please die! Hercules, kill him!"

After the girl said "Hercules, Kill him!", the humanoid monster Hercules next to her suddenly burst out with an aura of death that could almost suffocate people. Ulysses had only seen this kind of aura of death in that masked murderer. It was a desperate aura like a sharp blade pressing on his neck. If it was a normal mage or swordsman, they would probably lose most of the fighting spirit when they felt this aura of death.

But Ulysses was no longer the fourth-level light mage that would have been frightened by the aura a few months ago. Having fought with terrifying opponents like the masked murderer, big octopus, and headless horseman, that ordinary people would never meet in a lifetime, he would no longer be afraid of anyone.

"Lulu. Run. Go back to Rasputin and the others!" After whispering to Lulu in his arms, he let go of it in his arms, and then summoned his Phantasm without hesitation.

"Judgment of Abyss! Come out!" As he shouted, the dark red giant sword appeared in his hand from the void.

At this time, the humanoid monster named Hercules had already swung the black giant sword in his hand and rushed towards him like a moving mountain. Then he smashed it down.

"Woosh!" The whistling sound of the sword passing through the air indicated how powerful this attack was, and the power of this sword might be enough to turn the boulder into powder.

"Boom!" Ulysses' Judgment of Abyss met with the giant sword, which could easily tear the air, and the collision of the two giant swords made an astonishing loud noise.

"Ka Ka!" Although he blocked Hercules' giant sword, his power was obviously above Ulysses. After only a few seconds, Ulysses was completely suppressed by him.

"Flash!!!" Just when Ulysses' defense was about to collapse, he shouted out a spell of the Elementary Light Magic.

A dazzling white light suddenly appeared between the two. The sudden glare made Hercules unable to see anything for an instant.

"Quick ​​Sword Inferno!!" At the moment when Hercules was dazzled by the flash magic, Ulysses took a few steps back quickly, left his attack range, and then launched his first sword move.

Countless black sword shadows appeared in the space a few meters in front of Ulysses, woven into an airtight sword net. Every sword shadow had the power to cut rocks, and almost all of these sword shadows had been cut on the huge body of Hercules.

‘Hits! Wait, something is not right…' When Judgment of Abyss smoothly hit Hercules' body, Ulysses became excited, but he immediately noticed something was wrong. He didn't have the slightest feeling of cutting into the body of a creature. The feeling of cutting into the opponent's body was like cutting on a hard yet flexible rock.

With a sound of "ding!", Hercules, who had been chopped dozens of times by Judgment of Abyss, slammed a powerful blow, smashing the sword net composed of countless sword shadows, and the caster of the sword net— —Ulysses was also knocked back and sent flying in an instant.

‘What exactly is going on! ! This monster named Hercules was able to survive the attack of Judgment of Abyss! What is he! Even if the power of Judgment of Abyss is sealed, but as a Phantasm, it should still be able to injure him.' After the shocked Ulysses fell to the ground, he immediately retreated more than a dozen meters away, and looked at Hercules, who was chasing in stride. On this humanoid monster, there was not even a trace of being chopped by Judgment of Abyss, as if his attack had just tickled him.

"Is it weird? Big Brother! Why can't your Phantasm cause harm to my Hercules? The reason is actually very simple! Because Hercules has an immortal body! The defensive power of his body is comparable to that of a dragon. How could your ordinary Phantasm hurt him! Only the legendary Holy Light Sword of the warrior of light or the Buster Sword of Dragon Slayer can hurt him." Iphia on the side said with a sweet voice, as if she wanted to remind Ulysses.

"But, Big Brother, the attack you just made against Hercules was really good. If you have a super Phantasm like Buster Sword, you might really succeed. I didn't expect that you, who owns the swordsman Phantasm, are also a true light mage. It seems that the light mage robe on you is not a fake. But that's it. Hercules! Full attack! Don't give him any more opportunities! Kill him!" After complimenting Ulysses, Iphia issued a crisp and cold command. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});

The immature voice echoed in the woods, and the speed of Hercules, who heard Iphia's command, instantly increased. It was obvious such a huge body, but it was not much slower than Ulysses. He was waving the black giant sword in his hand frantically, like a hurricane that could destroy everything.

However, Ulysses' body, strengthened by the blood of the demon king, possessed a speed far surpassing the average seventh-level powerhouse. He used nearby trees to cleverly intercept Hercules' crazy attacks. Although Hercules could easily knock down the trees blocking his huge body, he could not hit Ulysses' body. The battle temporarily fell into a deadlock.

‘The girl named Iphia said that this monster's body has a defense power comparable to that of a dragon. Then I probably have only one way to defeat him. But I will need time to prepare this trick, and I must wait for him to reveal his weakness like he was dazzled by the flash magic just now.' Ulysses was thinking about countermeasures while dodging Hercules' attacks that could destroy everything.

"Big Brother, do you only know how to dodge! Hmph! Let me see how long you can dodge. Hercules will never feel tired!" Seeing Ulysses who was constantly using trees to avoid Hercules' attacks, Iphia said angrily.Monthly AccessTier 1: 17 Advance chapters Link
