The flame monster kept throwing red fireballs while chasing them, causing potholes to appear on the ground, causing Lumian to be overturned several times in a row.
A lot of wood in the surrounding ruins was ignited because of this, and red flames flickered everywhere.
Lumian didn't care about dealing with the flames that were still burning his clothes, and endured the unspeakable pain. He was blown away by the shock waves generated by the explosion again and again, and stood up again and again, arcing left and right and sometimes towards the destination. Occasionally run wildly in a straight line.
Fortunately, the next location in his plan was not far away. Just when he felt that a mouthful of blood was about to spurt out and his body was about to be torn apart, the crumbling building appeared in front of his eyes.
Boom!
Lumian forcibly twisted his body to avoid a ball of fire, and the crimson thing exploded not far in front of him, setting off ferocious waves mixed with flames.
Lumian fell to the ground, dodged the most violent wave of damage, and used his strength to roll into the house in front that hadn't completely collapsed.
The flame monster stopped in its tracks, not in a hurry to chase into the place where a deadly trap might be hidden.
He watched Lumian rolling forward inside the house, and red fire crows condensed around him.
Those fire crows roared and flew out, half of them hitting the various supporting points of the building, and half of them throwing themselves at Lumian's back from all directions.
They seemed to be able to lock on to the target, none of them deviated, and constantly adjusted their trajectory according to Lumian's position.
At this moment, the flame monster seemed to be able to see the enemy being blown into scorched corpses.
The group of fire crows is not as easy to dodge as a random fireball!
Suddenly, Lumian's figure disappeared into the eyes of the flame monster.
He rolled into the relatively well-preserved basement.
boom!
Lumian eagerly slammed the wooden entrance door shut, and jumped to the side with the force of the rebound.
Whoosh, whoosh, the red fire crows smashed on the door.
Boom!
The heavy wooden door was blown apart, and every fragment was set ablaze.
Rumble!
The other half of the Firecrows all hit their intended targets, and the crumbling house completely collapsed.
Stones, wood, dust and all kinds of debris intertwined and flooded here, burying the basement tightly.
Lumian had already hid in a corner, relying on the soil piled up here, and relying on skillful rolling, he suppressed the flames on his body.
But even so, he still suffered multiple burns, and his internal organs seemed to be displaced by the blast. If he didn't receive timely treatment, he might not survive a day.
The attack ability and explosive level of the flame monster seem to be stronger than that of Lai En who has not used "Light Storm"!
Lumian originally hoped to use "invisibility" to initially get rid of the flame monster, sneak into this basement, jump out of the mysterious sacrificial dance, half-activate the black thorn symbol on his chest, scare the opponent away, and wait for the completion of "Fallen Mercury" The exchange of fate, but the flame attached to him earlier made it impossible for him to enter the "invisible" state, and he was almost killed by being chased.
The only thing Lumian is lucky about now is that he has a plan that he can't get rid of the flame monster's pursuit, and he can't use the sacrificial dance to pray with peace of mind.
He even thought about destroying the house and burying the basement to buy time, but he didn't expect the flame monster to help him do this.
Phew... Lumian exhaled and sat down cross-legged.
He took out the bottle of gray amber perfume from Aurora, unscrewed the cap, and put it in front of him.
Outside the completely collapsed house, the eyes of the flame monster penetrated the dust in the air, searching for traces of the enemy.
It believed that the treacherous guy could not have been buried alive so easily.
With the level of traps he showed just now and his familiarity with the ruins, he must have left a way out for himself!
The flame monster's thinking ability is not strong, relying on the instinct of a "hunter" to go around to the back of the collapsed house.
It searched this place inch by inch, and found a hole that slanted downward in only a dozen seconds. The entrance of the Baona hole was covered by the collapsed part of the house, and it was not affected by the subsequent overall collapse. It was difficult to see at a glance, and the location was quite hidden.
The flame monster raised its right hand, and condensed a fist-sized blazing fireball in the palm of its hand.
It took a sharp step forward, swung its right arm, and threw the fireball into the passage.
The flames traveled a short distance into the basement and fell on the opposite wall.
Boom!
The wave of the explosion didn't affect Lumian who deliberately hid in another corner, but overturned the bottle of gray amber perfume placed in front of him, causing the entire basement to shake.
The gurgling liquid flowed out from the uncovered bottle in large quantities, and the elegant and sweet fragrance instantly became rich.
Lumian didn't open his eyes, and sat intently against the wall.
He is meditating!
The crimson sun had already been outlined in his mind, and it lasted for several seconds.
Soon, Lumian heard the terrifying voice that seemed to come from infinite distance and was close to his ears.
On his face, on the back of his hands, and on his neck, the blue blood vessels stood out, and they quickly turned into a red color that was close to fire.
At the same time, one after another silver-black circular spots appeared on the surface of his skin.
Lumian opened his mouth, but failed to let out a scream. He fell down and curled up.
The "Fallen Mercury" got out of his left palm, but he didn't dare to do anything, he didn't dare to actively flick to his face and right hand which were not covered by the cloth, trying to make a puppet by contact.
It just trembled there, trembling violently.
Outside the basement, next to the entrance dug out by Lumian, the monster that was about to condense the fireball froze.
It also trembled uncontrollably.
After a few seconds, it ran away and gave up hunting.
Lumian fell into the darkness with countless flames flickering, and his mind was filled with extreme pain and evil thoughts.
At this moment, he had the feeling that it would be better to die and felt that something in the depths of his heart was growing rapidly and taking shape little by little.
It seems to be a shadow composed of all negative personalities mixed with some kind of will, and once put together into a human form, it will completely replace the original owner.
In the darkness where there was no end in sight but only despair and pain, Lumian suddenly smelled a fragrance: elegant and sweet.
That's the smell of Aurora, the smell that I always have.
Aurora... sister... Lumian gradually regained her thoughts, and seemed to hear the light and soothing melody in her ears again.
"I want to live!"
"The cycle has not been lifted!"
All kinds of thoughts returned quickly, and Lumian finally defeated the dark will in the depths of his heart and the darkness full of pain, and opened his eyes.
The first thing that caught his eyes was the bottle of gray amber perfume that fell on the ground.
fall down? Lumian stretched out his right hand in distress.
Originally, he only wanted to imitate Aurora's behavior of using incense to curb the signs of losing control, and to wake himself up with the smell of the natural perfume, but who knew that most of the bottle of liquid poured out in one fell swoop.
The next second, he felt his body tremble, saw the scorched black and blood stains on the back of his hand, and saw the silver-black round spot that had not completely disappeared.
Without being reminded by others, Lumian can "smell" a strange and creepy smell on his body.
Now if he meets Valentine, he doesn't need to show anything deliberately, and he will be "purified" by the Holy Light summoned by the other party.
Lumian picked up the remaining half of the gray amber perfume, capped the bottle, and put it away.
Immediately, he picked up the "Fallen Mercury" that was still trembling violently, and asked in Hermes, "Have you finished exchanging fate?" "Fallen Mercury" immediately moved left and right, indicating that it hadn't.
Lumian breathed a sigh of relief.
He was afraid that when he woke up, the fate had already been exchanged, and the state of being stunned would last at most a minute.
In that case, if he failed to find the flame monster in time, the pain and suffering he had just suffered would be meaningless.
Exhale, inhale... Lumian adjusted his very bad state, mustered up his energy, and crawled out of the basement through the hole dug in advance.
Every movement he made would pull different wounds, and the pain was so strong that he couldn't help grinning.
Out of the basement, Lumian searched for the flame monster's footprints, and sighed secretly: "Meditating when you are not in a good state, and completely arousing the thorns symbol on your chest, it is simply suicide..." That is, I became a "hunter" 'After that, I didn't do this again, so I could barely suppress the signs of loss of control with the scent of gray amber. However, there have been a few times before, the body has shown a little alienation, and now it has become a monster...
"For a long time after that, unless you want to die, you can't do it anymore..."
He chose to use meditation to fully activate the black thorn symbol on his chest instead of half-activating it by dancing a sacrificial dance, because the situation was urgent and there was no time to complete the dance.
Relying on meditation, it took him at most five or six seconds to scare away the flame monster, while the mysterious sacrificial dance took thirty to forty seconds, and this was when Lumian was already proficient.
In Lumian's hunting plan, this is the last plan: when you can't get rid of the fire monster with other methods, try to meditate!
Lumian just didn't expect that he was seriously injured at the beginning, and almost lost control into a monster during meditation.
Not long after, Lumian found the footprints left by the flame monster and chased after it.
After a few minutes he saw that the tracks were fresh and he slowed down.
After a while, "Fallen Mercury" trembled on its own, telling Lumian that the exchange of fates had been completed.
Lumian didn't hesitate anymore, he pulled out the iron black ax with his backhand, and rushed forward along the footprints of the flame monster. In less than twenty seconds, he saw the prey that was scorched black and bursting with flames.
It was crawling in a corner surrounded by stones, trembling.
Lumian ran over, dropped "Fallen Mercury", held the ax with both hands, and slashed down with all his strength.
In the dull voice, the head of the unresisting flame monster was separated from its body.
Streams of bright red blood spurted out violently, turning into clusters of crimson flames on the ground.
Plopping, Lumian couldn't support anymore, and fell to the ground with the ax in hand.
