Alex felt a phantom pain in his teeth upon seeing the two giant crabs. That was because his face had been kicked by crabs before. His teeth were almost knocked out, and his waist was nearly broken in half. There were even two holes punctured in his chest.
Hence, Alex was still wary of them. He just wanted to kill them off.
“Hey, Wilbert. You can handle these two ghost crabs. Please don’t be like my little girl and not train yourself.”
Alex placed his conscience into his mind palace and spoke to the tool spirit.
“Don’t worry, as long as there’s enough divine power, there won’t be any problems. Besides, it’s just two little crabs. I’ll get you some crab roe later.”
Shelly was confident, so Alex felt relieved. He had to remember their current position. He knew that it would be helpful to memorize where the exit of this space hallway was.
“An astrology mark!” He exclaimed. This was something new that he found from the sword heart that the woman in red gave him.
It was a marking that could be generally used in any space… Something like a destination pointer on a GPS, but it was connected to his consciousness instead. Thus, after placing a mark, he would quickly find this place as long as his memory wasn’t wiped.
“Die!” Alex yelled and rushed toward the group of Undead.
The two giant crabs were the first to attack.
“Shelly!”
“With water flowing under the bridge, Persephone stands above!”
This time, the tool spirit was quite cooperative. She was murmuring an elegant ancient poem, but in reality, it was a very cruel spell. A bloody ancient bridge appeared out of nowhere, forming under the two crabs.
Ring…
The two crabs exploded within a second. The ancient bridge was cruel, filled with irregular forces relating to life and death. It was as if there was strong energy dragging them along with the other Undead beasts.
“Arghhhh!”
Upon hearing this, Alex shook that thought out of his head. He then swam off with the clock still in hand, letting the chimes vibrate through the sea, causing the soul fires within the Undead to shake vigorously.
He just needed to use Bodhi’s Dragon-Tusk punches to demolish the soul fires successfully in such circumstances. With this, he would get the chance to harvest their lives.
Whoosh!
Alex then took notice that the bridge didn’t drag the two crabs onto it. Instead, it used immortal chains to restrict them. It would seem to be using this method to absorb the crabs’ life force and energy directly.
“Hey Clinton, it looks like Shelly is stronger than you!” Alex said.
“Ah, I’m getting old. I can’t compare to these youngsters.”
“But you’re still pretty strong, though.”
