[Sage]'s hand left [Red Dust]'s head. He slowly unbuttoned his mink coat and stored it in the inventory.
With a light tap, Red Dust smashed into the ground with a bang, imprinted directly into the asphalt road.
"Heh, seems rcenary Tao didn't take you seriously at all, Red Dust..."
Sage lowered his eyelids. The combat power displayed by rcenary Tao greatly exceeded his expectations.
He originally thought even with so-called rule-breaking combat power, it would just be at the upper-middle level of the [Strong] tier. Combined with a bloodline possessing immortality and super-speed regeneration, he could indeed defeat so Title Level Reincarnators above his level.
But unexpectedly, under that pink robe and the ugly red incarnation, such a monster was hidden.
A Reincarnator analyzed to have been deployed at most close to 10 tis, in a frontal battle, crushed a Reincarnator team with a brilliant reputation in the East District's Third Ladder in less than two minutes—even though that team was missing its two strongest mbers.
But Sage knew very well that even without him acting, and excluding Red Dust, the current group of five led by [Archides] and [Left Eye] was enough to easily crush most Second Ladder Reincarnator squads, kill almost any mass-produced Title Level Reincarnator, and defeat a considerable portion of Title Level Reincarnators without powerful special abilities.
Yet such a team configuration, with intelligence support and the advantage of striking first, was beaten to collapse in less than a minute of actual combat, morale completely gone.
This combat power was completely incomparable to Red Dust. Sage knew Red Dust's strength very well. After [Reverse Universe] successfully took effect, Red Dust with rule-breaking energy attributes possessed roughly the strength of a true Title Level Reincarnator.
But even this Red Dust would find it hard to parry Archides' magic that could cut anything. With the cooperation of the others, Red Dust would most likely end up heavily injured or dead after killing a few people.
Completely different from rcenary Tao's overwhelming situation right now.
Therefore, he concluded that no one who appeared before, whether Red Dust or [Millennium Bug], was taken seriously by rcenary Tao.
He didn't use his full strength at all.
Sage originally planned to recruit rcenary Tao just like he 'subdued' Red Dust back then, so he didn't attack directly.
But at this mont, seeing rcenary Tao's true strength, Sage abandoned this plan.
"Tang Sanzang, kill him. This rcenary Tao is probably that kind of guy."
He spoke, followed by a chuckle. Red Dust, smashed face-down into the asphalt road, almost unable to breathe and bleeding profusely, still detected that voice.
The true main force within the [Empire of The Final Day], the follower of [The Final Day], [Tang Sanzang], actually appeared.
He felt cold in his heart. Sage appeared together with Tang Sanzang, and coincidentally both Saitama and Tornado had left this group.
This was probably not a coincidence.
This was an 'arranged' encirclent.
Tang Sanzang wore a red kasaya, his chest exposed. His skin color was close to golden, even dazzling under the sunlight.
Hearing Sage's words, he clapped his hands together, a reserved smile on his face.
"Even if he is an [Anomaly], he is just an ungrown [Anomaly]. Why do you and I need to act simultaneously?"
Then, Tang Sanzang turned to look at Sage.
Saying 'look' at Sage, but actually Tang Sanzang always kept his eyes closed, communicating with Sage. He didn't rely on any external senses at all.
"Do you hope this guy consus sowhat so you can contend for that legendary [Limiter] fragnt yourself?"
Sage's expression remained unchanged. He just turned his head, too lazy to look at this [Supre Powerhouse] follower with a weird personality.
"Stop talking nonsense. Since His Majesty has already entered this world, that kind of thing naturally has nothing to do with you or anymore."
Sage unbuttoned his exquisite shirt one by one. His movents were elegant, as if he couldn't see his subordinate being pushed into desperate straits by rcenary Tao.
That silver Plot Equipnt shield reinforced to 6 was about to run out of energy. The venom sprayed wantonly had already entered the battlefield of the two monsters [Tornado] and [???].
There was a considerable possibility of attracting attention.
"Tsk tsk, as hypocritical as ever, Mr. Sage. Isn't it tiring to live like this?"
Tang Sanzang asked.
"All living phenona are but a skin, but boundless karmic obstacles..."
"You are obsessed with appearances~"
Then he took out a purple gourd and started drinking wine in big gulps.
Out of the corner of his eye, Sage saw the purple gourd. His unbuttoning movent paused slightly, then he smiled, seemingly indifferent to Tang Sanzang's sarcasm.
He took off the crisp shirt, revealing a robust body. Unlike his elegant appearance, Sage's muscles looked chiseled, covered with terrifying scars.
Light flashed in his hand again, and he changed into a completely black priest robe.
"Hehe, Tang Sanzang, tell , if people in this world didn't disguise themselves, didn't decorate their skins, wouldn't this vast human world be rampant with demons and ghosts?"
"Especially us... Reincarnators, heh..."
[Team mber CF97731144 (Archides) has died]
Sage reached forward and grabbed, as if grabbing the 'picture' in front of him, then pulled.
Buzz~
Kaito, emitting crimson malice all over, and [Red Queen] and [Left Eye], who were already naked and entangled at his feet, trembled slightly.
Their bodies appeared in front of Sage and Tang Sanzang.
Kaito's eyes moved, seeing the cut black sedan, Red Dust smashed into the ground, and... the grotesque monk sitting cross-legged in the air, standing in front of him, a black-robed priest with kind eyebrows and slightly white temples.
"Amitabha. rcenary Tao, seems you are also a man of true nature."
Tang Sanzang comnted upon seeing the fate of the two won of Chaos Sage. As a Reincarnator, there were no taboos. He despised those hypocritical guys the most, especially the group from [Azure Sky], a bunch of fools who couldn't distinguish their standpoints.
Sage watched this scene and nodded:
"This is the first ti I've seen such a scale of Sin Power on a Sequence Two Crimson Great Sin."
"You are indeed an [Anomaly]."
Sage seed to praise, but his tone changed quickly.
"Unfortunately, this Space can no longer bear the appearance of more [Anomalies]."
The [Cocoon of Greed] around Kaito at this mont was terrifyingly thick. He constantly absorbed the power of lightning, magic, and swordsmanship amidst the fear of the Chaos Sage mbers. Later, soaking in venom, he used [Heart of Slaanesh] to make the two female Reincarnators sink into desire, absorbing their vitality wantonly.
If he fought Red Dust again now, that saber Qi could hardly break the defense of the Cocoon of Greed.
"Tsk, cut the crap."
Kaito spoke. Breath like blood mist sprayed from his mouth. Along with those poison mists, it perated hundreds of ters instantly, enveloping everyone.
Red Dust lying on the ground instantly felt unable to breathe oxygen. His vision began to darken, and his consciousness began to dissipate.
After Sage approached rcenary Tao, he intuitively felt that thorough wildness and that body ability about to explode.
Great Sin Reincarnators possessed the ability to plunder others' [Information], generally having stronger attributes. This was within his expectations, but...
[You encountered the effect of On of the Evil God · Gaze of Pride. Strength Check in progress...]
[You encountered the effect of On of the Evil God · Heart of Slaanesh. Spirit Check in progress...]
In just an instant, accompanied by sweeping malice, so attack had already occurred.
Sage's eyelid twitched. The blood mist in front of him disappeared instantly. A huge blood-red figure stretched to the extre appeared in front of him. In front of the palm, spiral crimson air whistled like rotating sharp blades.
Emitting weird whistling sounds.
Pfft!
A palm struck out. The sonic boom cloud shattered instantly. Dense wind force shot out like blades in all directions.
Sage's head shook for a mont. A large number of cracks appeared instantly on the asphalt ground behind him.
His eyes were calm. He raised his hand vertically in front of him.
"Taijutsu... I also know a lit... Ugh."
Before he finished speaking, twisted Qi force struck from behind. The mont he lowered his head to dodge, he suffered a violent impact in front.
A knee struck his body fiercely.
Bang!
Blazing white shockwaves spread. Sage was sent flying instantly.
Kaito's figure condensed from the blood mist. High-tier [Setsuna] was already activated. He glanced at Tang Sanzang, who seed not ready to act, and sneered at the blown-away Sage:
"Nice texture, Mr. Sage~"
Sage stepped on the air, sliding hundreds of ters before stopping.
He looked at his twisted hands and slightly dented chest, shaking his head.
"Taijutsu is still so boring."
"Let's play sothing interesting, rcenary Tao..."
"In the upcoming battle with , if you dodge my punch, you will die."
Kaito's heart suddenly sank slightly, as if instinctively uncomfortable after hearing so ominous curse, or perhaps so restriction was imposed on his body.
[Based on your Spirit attribute, you obtained the following information:]
[You are affected by the special ability of an unknown Reincarnator]
Buzz!
The air was broken instantly. Sage crossed the distance of hundreds of ters in a bold posture, stretching his body and punching at Kaito.
This punch wasn't fast; Kaito could dodge it easily. But the nerves in his mind burned with pain—that was so danger warning.
Kaito stepped forward instantly, punching out as well.
Boom!
Fists collided. Sage's force softened rapidly before the Cocoon of Greed. Instead, Kaito's fist speed was terrifyingly fast, landing dozens of punches on Sage in an instant.
Shinra Death Intent appeared instantly.
Pfft!
Sage's body exploded instantly.
Kaito looked at the corpse shattering in mid-air, feeling sothing wrong. Looking down, he saw only the corpse of that woman with long bangs covering her eyes.
Sage's figure appeared in the distance again. His face was calm, raising a finger again.
"rcenary Tao, in the upcoming battle, if you block my punch, you will die."
[Based on your Spirit attribute, you obtained the following information:]
[You are affected by the special ability of an unknown Reincarnator]
Tang Sanzang sat in the air, sensing Sage's battle with his Mind Reading (Telepathy), a thoughtful expression on his face.
He noticed that one of the two won of Chaos Sage had died. But in his perception, the one fighting rcenary Tao was indeed Sage himself.
That wasn't so illusion or hypnosis ability.
So, that was so ability to substitute death or transfer damage. What was the trigger condition?
Tang Sanzang knew very well that to defeat Sage, intelligence was essential. But facing a Reincarnator capable of interfering with cognition, how could intelligence be obtained...
Ha, rcenary Tao, try a little harder. Don't die so early. Let watch a bit longer!
Kaito looked down at his fist. The tactile sensation of hitting the opponent's flesh and the feeling when Shinra Death Intent erupted were all correct.
He also quickly realized Sage probably possessed so special ability to transfer damage.
Watching Sage impose so ability on him again, Kaito licked the corner of his mouth, his heart rate still rising.
"Good. Really good... Mr. Sage, I'm starting to like you..."
Sizzle!
Intense thunder began to erupt from the phantom of [On of the Evil God]. A wild lightning began to wander.
