Chapter 1592: Chapter 855: Taboo Silhouette, the Divine Artifact in Taboo Forest! (Part 2)
A seasoned veteran like Black would naturally not overlook any detail. He felt something was off about the âHousekeeper,â but for the moment, he couldnât pinpoint what it was.
Gradually, they closed in within 50 meters of Qing Chen. If it werenât for the concern that Qing Chenâs struggle and shouts would attract attention, they might have already pounced on this Housekeeper!
Yellow pointed at his wrist.
It was only then that Black realized what was off; at some point, the Housekeeper had put on a string of Buddha Beads on his wrist...
They certainly werenât there before!
The West Continent also has Buddhism, but the followers had long been hunted down by Black Water Cityâs religious order. Even those who believed could only worship silently at home.
Could this Housekeeper actually be a Buddhist?
Black found it suspicious but didnât think it was too serious...
In the next moment, he made a tactical gesture, and everyone began to speed up, pressing toward Qing Chen.
But after just two steps, they suddenly heard a noise coming from the treetops above them.
The sound was like someone passing through the tree canopy, brushing against leaves, and landing on the ground, though so lightly that it made no sound on the ground.
Not good!
Itâs an ambush!
Black looked at Yellow, who was staring blankly because during his earlier scan, he truly hadnât seen anything!
Black suddenly turned around; in the span of that instant of twisting, he rooted his feet to the ground, the force traveling up his legs to his waist, twisting his body.
The motion flowed smoothly, and the dagger in his hand swung backward!
However, he hit nothing!
Black turned his head and saw under the sparse and dappled moonlight filtering through the treetops, an ink-black shadow standing directly behind Yellow.
In the depths of this Taboo Forest, an ink-black figure without a face or features, looking not even human, was utterly terrifying.
"Watch out!" Black could no longer hold back and shouted to warn Yellow.
But unexpectedly, that dark figure didnât kill anyone. Instead, it held a pair of scissors, lowered its body, and cut through something in the air.
Soon, the shadow didnât stay to fight and disappeared ghost-like into the shadows, relying on its tremendous speed.
It seemed as though it belonged to the darkness and could merge with it at any time.
Strangely, the night vision devices couldnât see it, and thermal imaging couldnât detect it!
This wasnât because the shadow didnât exist but because the properties of the night vision were precisely countered by the shadow.
Under normal circumstances, all shadows appear particularly blurry in infrared night vision unless thereâs a light source with infrared supplement; otherwise, itâs challenging to capture the presence of a shadow.
So when all the B-Class experts used night vision to search for the shadow, they could only see a blurry shadow darting by.
Thus, the situation turned into:
Black and the others couldnning equip with night vision couldnât find the shadow.
Without the night vision, they couldnât even see the road.
How could they possibly fight under these conditions?
Black was on edge; he couldnât comprehend how there could be such a ghostly thing in the Taboo Forest. Could it be a racial talent of some giant?
He looked again in the direction where Qing Chen was supposed to be standing but found that the figure of Qing Chen had long disappeared!
Where did he go?
Black lowered his voice and angrily asked, "Where did the Housekeeper go?"
All looked terrified; none of them noticed when Qing Chen disappeared!
It was at this moment that Greenâs shadow was also cut, as was Redâs shadow... The sound of scissors closing clicked beside their ears, but Black and the others didnât have the ability to eliminate the shadow.
The night of the Taboo Forest was highly suitable for the taking advantage of the Taboo Silhouette.
If you canât even see where it is, how can you fight it?
Moreover, the Silhouette inherited Qing Chenâs A-Class Knightâs powerful physique, much faster than these B-Class Genetic Warriors.
Now in the Taboo Forest, there wasnât just Qing Chen, an A-Class, but also a Silhouette that could thrash genetic warriors of the same rank.
"Find the Housekeeper; heâs the one behind this. Heâs not C-Class!" Black shouted to Yellow, "If you canât find the shadow, use thermal imaging to find the Housekeeper; capture the leader first!"
Yellow looked through thermal imaging and discovered that in it, the Housekeeperâs orange-red figure was leisurely leaning against a tree trunk.
Qing Chen smiled and said, "Oh, whatâs behind you all?"
Black abruptly turned around. He heard a snap from behind him, and then the shadow originally belonging to him under his feet slowly wriggled and stood up, becoming a new black shadow.
Not only him, but behind all the teammates whose shadows were cut, black shadows also stood up.
At this moment, Qing Chenâs side consisted of two A-Class and fourteen B-Class...
"Youâre not the Housekeeper. Who are you?" Black roared while fighting with his shadow.
He suddenly realized a brutal reality: whenever he attacked the shadow, not only did it not break apart, but the pain was instead transferred back to himself.
When he slashed the shadowâs neck, his own neck ached intensely.
This kind of fighting oneself was simply unsolvable!
Actually, while the Silhouette was strong, it wouldnât be this strong until Qing Chen used the out-of-three-realms card to exploit the bug. It suddenly turned from an ordinary battle Taboo to a Divine Artifact that could fight against many foes.
Tonight in this Taboo Land, never mind 14 B-Class Genetic Warriors, even if there were a hundred, Qing Chen would still kill them!
And he wouldnât even need to do it himself!
Black no longer fought his shadow and crazily ran towards the Third Division Residence.
