Chapter 591: Battle for the Blades! [1]

When the attacks approached, Marvin didn’t have much choice so he subconsciously met the blows with his dagger.

But in that split second, when the two curved daggers touched each other, he felt his wrist give way!

A bad feeling rose up in his heart.

As he looked with his shocked eyes, the dagger that had been gifted to him by the Great Elven King a while back… shattered!

“Crash!”

A Legendary curved dagger broke into five pieces.

Despite Marvin reacting extremely quickly and dodging continuously, he couldn’t completely avoid the fierce attacks from Sodom’s Blades.

A thin wound appeared at his waist, with blood flowing steadily out of it.

Marvin was holding a dagger in one hand, a grave expression on his face.

This was one of the most troublesome enemies he’d met since he transmigrated!

The animated corpse simply didn’t give him any room to breathe, the vicious attacks seemed mechanical, almost unconscious, but extremely accurate.

In a mere three exchanges, Marvin’s forehead and waist were hurt, and his most suitable weapon had broken.

He hadn’t expected Azure Leaf to break. This was a Legendary item that the Great Elven King had used for a long time!

Ever since he got them, Marvin’s equipment advantage had let him crush other powerhouses, but now he could only smile bitterly because he was on the receiving end of the situation.

Worthy of Sodom’s Blades.

In the hands of its owner’s Spirit, despite the fact that the Bloody Emperor hadn’t recovered his full strength of those years, dealing Marvin was easy enough.

He could feel the frightening power buried deep within the corpse.

The other side had been smiling strangely all along, its throat issuing some rumbling sounds.

At this time, Marvin finally realized that he wasn’t that guy’s opponent at all!

Even if he used Ruler’s Wrath, even if he took out all his hidden cards, he still wouldn’t be able to defeat this overwhelming foe!

The Bloody Emperor was someone who slew Gods!

Even though the enemy was a Spirit, a Legend powerhouse still couldn’t come close to his level of power.

‘Such a powerful mortal body despite it being a corpse…’

Marvin shook his head, still dodging frantically.

He couldn’t defeat him and he couldn’t escape. He could only dodge.

There seemed to be plenty of room for him to dodge around, as the area was quite spacious. Moreover, in these kinds of situations, the one trying to get away would have the advantage. But Marvin wasn’t optimistic.

Because in those short exchanges, he found out that despite being in a withered corpse, the Bloody Emperor’s Spirit actually broke through the boundary of Godly Dexterity!

The speed and reaction speed Marvin was so proud of was nothing in front of that corpse.

He could only dodge, and he only barely managed to keep doing so.

He didn’t dare to parry with the remaining Azure Leaf.

If he didn’t do it perfectly, the remaining dagger would also disintegrate and he would die tragically.

This short one-minute melee battle made Marvin pay a disastrous price!

He felt like he had never been in such a terrible situation since he transmigrated.

Because never before had he met an opponent who suppressed him in everything!

Even when he faced Shadow Prince Glynos, they had fought in Arborea, where the latter had been suppressed to level 18, making it possible for Marvin to cope with it.

But that short monster was faster than him, stronger than him, and more familiar with this room than him. Furthermore, the Blood Emperor had very deep fighting experience, driving Marvin into a desperate situation.

When he fought with the so-called experts, Marvin relied on his rich PK experience.

But there was no experience advantage when facing this existence.

Countless people also died under the Bloody Emperor’s hands, and unlike other monarchs, he had personally hacked all those people to death with his own daggers! He had gone through countless life-and-death battles and won!

It was said that Sodom’s Blades were originally white, but after killing so many enemies, they turned red from the blood of the dead.

When it came to Blade Techniques, Marvin couldn’t get any advantage either.

And clearly, Sodom’s Blades were far superior to Marvin’s Azure Leaf.

Sodom’s Blades were an Artifact, and even though the Spirit couldn’t fully utilize all the abilities of the Artifact, it still wasn’t something Marvin’s daggers could contend against.

Marvin knew that if this foe had been able to take advantage of all of the power of Sodom’s Blades, he would have already died.

A Spirit wasn’t truly a soul.

This was only a piece of the Emperor’s soul with fighting abilities. It was completely following its instincts. If someone attempted to steal the blades, the Spirit would kill that person.

And as long as that person wasn’t dead, it would continue to attack.

Unluckily, Marvin had drawn its ire.

While dodging the small man’s attacks, he glanced at the stone door.

‘If I had known, I would have let the Black Knight explore this room first!’

Fleeing now was very difficult.

Although the Spirit didn’t have the ability to think, the Bloody Emperor’s instincts were still there.

It wouldn’t let Marvin reach the exit easily.

As time passed, it became harder and harder for Marvin to keep away from the attacks.

He was covered in blood.

Small wounds would appear on his body, before becoming scars soon after thanks to his high recovery ability. But a lot of the time, these wounds would be opened again before they recovered.

These wounds weren’t serious, and each one on its own wouldn’t even worry an ordinary person.

But with all of them together, it added up to be quite considerable damage!

Marvin sight went scarlet, with countless warnings appearing on his interface.

In just three minutes, not only had he been pressured constantly and forced to only run away, but he also suffered 237 small cuts!

He didn’t let Sodom’s Blades injure him directly.

But every attack would be followed by a cold chill that would cut through the void.

And fragments of the void would indirectly harm Marvin’s body.

This was something he couldn’t escape.

He knew that this was one of the attributes of Sodom’s Blades!

[Special Effect – Void Shattering: Every time the blade is swung, there is a 100% chance of causing the void around it to shatter and send fragments at the enemy.]

When he saw that description on the forum, Marvin was very envious of the owner of those blades.

That special effect was too powerful, particularly the 100% trigger chance, which meant that every parrying skill would lose its importance in front of these blades.

Even if one could withstand the blades themselves, the void fragments would inexorably cause injuries!

These fragments were just like knives, gradually cutting apart the enemy’s flesh.

Sooner or later, the enemy would die of blood loss!

…

‘What should I do?’

The big question appeared in Marvin’s mind.

The space for him to dodge in this room was rapidly decreasing.

The places where void fragments had been cut away wouldn’t recover so quickly, leaving dangerous areas behind.

With his Perception, Marvin could sense fewer and fewer places that he could dodge to.

“Rumble!” The corpse’s throat rumbled again, the strange smile on its face becoming more intense.

Sodom’s Blades were filled with a scarlet light as they fiercely slashed over once more.

Suddenly, Marvin had a thought.

‘A Spirit…’

‘If it is a true Spirit, then why didn’t it appear before?’

‘Is the Spirit residing somewhere here?’

Countless thoughts flashed through Marvin’s mind as the curved daggers rushed at him.

For some reason, he didn’t retreat this time, and instead, he welcomed them!
