Chapter 252

The sword infused with Fearless Spirit easily parried the stone that was propelled by Darr's psychokinesis, the wind that was being controlled also stopped. As the dust slowly settled, the light that never went out once again revealed everything in front of him.

Chromie wielded the sword in his hand as he observed his surroundings. After kicking up the dust, Darr's figure flashed and disappeared from this hallway.

Chromie looked up. The ceiling of this place was unexpectedly high, about 10 meters tall.

Without any light to illuminate the ceiling, it was quite dim, and with the pillars and beams blocking the way, there were plenty of places to hide in this hallway.

Darr had Psychokinesis. He could use it to stabilize his body, and he could also use it to envelop his surroundings without making any sound or movement.

Chromie became extremely cautious. The other party's ability was extremely offensive, if he didn't guard against it in time, his body would easily be torn apart by the other party's ability.

He breathed through his nose and mouth. This was Darr's escape route, which meant that he had been here before, which meant that he might have left his spirit here. Although it wasn't tangible, he could still perform Spirit Vision after spending a bit of time.

Through Spirit Vision, the past of this place began to appear in Chromie's mind.

Pure white moonlight, as well as the Moon Tree that propped up the sky.

It seemed that at the time, the underground ruins hadn't sunk into the ground yet.

The scene quickly changed to show a large number of elves. Their average height was about 3 meters, with some of the more powerful elves reaching 5-6 meters in height.

From afar, their postures were especially graceful. They surrounded the hallway, devoutly performing an elven dance, as if expressing their everything to the Moon Tree in the sky.

The sky then broke apart as a large number of humans jumped out from it. Although their clothing and decorations were a bit different from modern times, one could still see the connection between the two.

War. The war between the two worlds had erupted.

The beautiful and elegant elves were utterly defeated, slaughtered by the humans one after another, glowing blood splattered all over the ground, even the young elves were mercilessly slaughtered.

The city was also 'killed' and sunk into the ground. A few people discovered this place during this period, but they quickly disappeared without a trace, until a certain scene appeared in Spirit Vision.

Darr, this visitor, took away the money that was deposited here by an unknown person. Then, he set up traps here, mechanisms underground, piano strings in the pillars, and heavy objects fixed on the ceiling.

Seeing this, Chromie cursed inwardly. The sound of gunshots could be heard from afar as several arrows shot towards Chromie. Psychokinesis flashed through the air, the immense kinetic energy infused into the arrows increased their speed to a certain degree.

Without much time to think, Chromie opened his eyes. Although he could see a lot with his Spirit Vision, it didn't take too much time, and he didn't choose to retreat, instead choosing to dodge arrows.

This was because in his Spirit Vision, Chromie had seen the sharp piano strings between the two pillars behind him. If he were to accidentally bump into them, the sharpness would be enough to slice through a person's flesh and blood.

Without any hesitation, Chromie rolled to the side. A certain part of the ground sank slightly and collapsed, revealing the hole and the spikes inside.

However, Chromie was already prepared. He grabbed the edge and flipped himself out of the hole.

What's going on? I've camouflaged all these traps, they can't be seen through by perception alone. Darr was hiding behind a pillar, recalling the information he had gathered earlier: Some sort of superhuman information-gathering ability was able to find me through the layers of misdirection?

"Give up on your greedy thoughts, mister Farnate" Darr's voice resounded from a different location through the psychokinesis channel.

"Without my help, you will never be able to save Miss Olga, we aren't enemies" As if thinking of something, Darr's voice became extremely mocking: "Not to mention, your one-sided rescue, is it really a rescue?"

"That's none of your business" Chromie's eyes flickered, the scene of Olga suddenly collapsing replayed in front of his eyes. He stabbed his sword into the ground and quickly flicked it, sending the dirt flying towards the source of the voices.

It was very rare for Chromie to encounter such a troublesome opponent. If not for his Spirit Vision allowing him to see through some of the enemy's arrangements, his actions would have only led him into the enemy's trap.

A sound came from above, which instantly reminded Chromie of the heavy object fixed to the ceiling with his Spirit Vision. It was a stone slab that seemed to have fused with the ceiling.

However, according to his memory, that stone slab wasn't above his head, but on the other side.

The stone slab moved a few times, then slid down from the ceiling, as if it was being pulled by something in mid-air and swung towards Chromie like a pendulum.

As Chromie slashed the stone slab apart, he felt something coiling around his body, constantly pulling and pulling at him, causing him to lose his balance. At the same time, the sound of wind could be heard behind his head. Obviously, Darr had used this chance to deal a fatal blow.

Chromie also noticed what was binding his body. It was the piano string that had been used as a trap earlier, under the effect of his psychokinesis, his body was already bleeding.

After Darr realized that Chromie had an information-gathering ability, he decided to beat him at his own game and came up with a new battle plan.

If the enemy could find out where the trap was, then the heavy object on the ceiling would definitely know as well, and by using this trap that the enemy knew about, he would be able to draw the enemy's attention.

Using psychokinesis, Darr silently removed the piano string and placed it on top of the stone slab, taking advantage of Chromie's attack to bind the piano string to his body.

Chromie's hand that was holding the sword turned, and the long sword stuck close to his body. Without hesitation, he cut off a layer of flesh and stabbed it into the steel wire. With a flick of the blade, he broke the wire, and at the same time, the long sword wrapped in Fear Aura blocked the attack from his back.

Looking at the snapped piano string, Darr suddenly felt a burning pain. The scene of Chromie's sword slicing off a layer of flesh appeared in his mind, a bit of blood had splattered onto his body at the time.

Sacrificial Magic (One-time use): Sacrifice a portion of the user's blood, causing the blood to become highly corrosive. Note: If the blood hasn't left the body, the sacrifice will be the entire body's blood, turning the user into a corrosive bomb. Only by separating the blood from the body can part of the sacrifice be performed.

Chromie had already sacrificed the pain, so he couldn't feel the pain from his back at all. His entire body was covered in wounds left by the piano string, his bloody appearance made him look like a demon from the Unrepenting Abyss.
