I have a Synthesizer

#169 - Lance enters the scene

The death of the necromancer was just a minor episode for Klein. What truly troubled Klein wasn't these men in black, but the relentlessly surging Bone Eater horde.

However, being able to kill a threatening enemy with a single strike, Klein was quite satisfied with his performance.

Compared to the recklessness of the Skull Society mage, the remaining Black Cross member was much more cautious. His idea was simple: with a large number of Bone Eaters, he could just slowly wear them down.

He had already witnessed Klein's formidable strength and didn't want to provoke him.

Compared to Klein's side, Lilith and Becky were under much greater pressure.

A total of six men in black appeared on the front line of the team. Each of them was a second-tier elite, and with the amplification of soul fragments, their strength had advanced by leaps and bounds.

A swordsman wielding dual swords had already rushed in front of Becky. The sword shadows crisscrossed, each strike faster than the last, putting Becky in a difficult position.

Adding to the relentless Bone Eaters around her, Becky quickly sustained several wounds.

This dual-sword wielding guy was also a member of the Skull Society. The conflict between the Skull Society and the Jay Society had never stopped for decades. Seeing Becky showing weakness, he mocked her.

"Hmph! Are the people of the Jay Society so weak?"

Becky held her greatsword in one hand, holy light beginning to shine around the blade. The holy light created a faint connection between her arm and the greatsword.

"Whether the people of the Jay Society are weak or not is not for you to decide!"

Suddenly gripping the sword, Becky threw the greatsword out. The Skull Society swordsman was momentarily stunned.

"Throwing away your weapon? Has the pressure I'm putting on you driven you mad?"

The swordsman easily dodged the flying greatsword, but just as he dodged, a sense of crisis suddenly arose in his heart.

The holy light on Becky's arm was connected to the greatsword she threw out. In this mid-to-long-range situation, it was as if she was holding the greatsword again.

The flying greatsword paused in the air, turned, and slashed at the Skull Society swordsman.

"Clang!" The scorching holy power forced the swordsman to parry with both swords, barely managing to block the attack.

But at this moment, Becky had already arrived behind him. Her hand, imbued with holy light, pierced through the swordsman's chest. Becky suddenly grabbed the opponent's heart and forcefully tore it out.

"Cough, cough, would a paladin also attack someone from behind?"

"Why not?"

"This thing, is a bloodstone? A soul stone fragment?"

Becky picked up the bloodstone fragment. The obvious soul contamination impacted her holy light power, also confirming to Becky that this thing was indeed a soul stone fragment.

"No wonder these guys are so strong! So they used this thing."

She looked at the corpse of the second-tier swordsman, lost in thought.

It wasn't that she was belittling herself. Paladins were originally the most powerful combat class. Apart from warlocks, death knights, and wizards, the paladin's class superiority was undoubtedly the highest.

And she herself was diligent enough and progressed fast enough. Among the second-tier members of the Jay Society, even if she wasn't the best, she was definitely not mediocre.

With her strength, in a one-on-one situation, an ordinary swordsman should not have been able to suppress her in certain situations.

Although the Bone Eaters swarming around were a factor, this situation was still abnormal. Realizing this, Becky immediately shouted to Lilith.

"They have soul stone fragments, be careful."

Lilith didn't want to pay attention to Becky at all at this time, nor did she have time to pay attention to Becky, because she was being besieged by five enemies at the same time.

This wasn't her being reckless, but the battle plan she and Becky had devised: she would hold back a large number of enemies, and Becky would break through them one by one.

Doing so was also a helpless move, because if Becky were to hold back five people, Becky would definitely die. Only she could defend, and Becky could carry out point-to-point breakthroughs.

With a sudden charge and sweep, forcing back two necromancers, Lilith turned around to block the remaining three melee fighters.

Lilith was struggling to block the three longswords slashing at her. Even for her, taking on three opponents at once was still very difficult, let alone with the soul stone amplification.

Just then, a bone spear suddenly attacked, catching Lilith off guard and piercing her arm.

"Are there other enemies?"

A guy holding a skull appeared in the distance from Becky and Lilith's perspective.

Lilith frowned, shaking off the three enemies in front of her and gripping her arm.

"This strength, is third-tier."

Lilith frowned tightly. Second-tier enemies already had soul stones, so third-tier enemies must also have them, and might even be stronger.

Just as she was thinking about how to deal with this third-tier enemy, a scream from Becky came from beside her.

A tall man in black punched Becky's sword, the enormous force sending Becky flying with her sword.

"Lord Kogg.", the other men in black said respectfully.

This man named Kogg was bare-chested, his body so strong that he was almost inhuman. Every inch of muscle on his body was as prominent as steel, as if it was about to explode at any moment.

At this time, Kogg stared at Becky, and also at the dual-sword swordsman killed by Becky, and said.

"The people of the Skull Society are just unreliable."

As soon as Kogg finished speaking, a bone spear shot at him, but he caught it with one hand.

"Is the attack of you Skull Society people all so soft? Strick?"

The man holding the skull in the distance slowly walked to a stop not far away.

"Yo, you have quite the tone, could it be that your muscles have grown too much and filled your brain, making you unable to speak human language?

If you want to die, I don't mind turning you into a skeleton!"

The skull in Strick's hand flickered with bursts of black light, confronting Kogg tit-for-tat. The gazes of the two collided in the air, as if an internal war could break out at any moment.

Becky looked at the two third-tier powerhouses, her face darkening. With her strength, let alone two third-tier powerhouses, she might not even be able to handle two second-tier powerhouses with soul stones at the same time.

On the other side, Lilith was already supporting herself on the ground with one hand. Her teeth had gradually deformed, and she began to slowly increase her strength.

Just then, the strong Black Cross member, Kogg, suddenly laughed loudly.

"Hahahaha! The matter between us, let's wait until we've completed the task assigned by the Lord."

Strick also smiled, shifting his gaze to Lilith.

"After all, it's Lord Jason's order, and I have the same idea."

Kogg's figure suddenly disappeared. Not only was he powerful, but his speed was also astonishingly fast, and he had already arrived in front of Lilith in an instant.

"Boom!"

The strong impact scattered the smoke and dust under the two's feet, but Kogg's huge fist was blocked by Lilith with a large scythe.

Kogg was slightly surprised. A second-tier professional with this kind of power?

It must be known that his strength was much greater than an ordinary Third Order, and with the amplification of the soul fragment, he was far from comparable to an ordinary Third Order warrior. Thinking of this, Kogg exclaimed.

“Truly worthy of Lilith!”

“You know me?”

Lilith's expression turned slightly stern. The recognition she spoke of naturally meant that people knew her background, her identity.

But knowing her identity and still daring to attack could only mean that the other party was determined to kill her.

Kogg did not give Lilith an answer. What responded to Lilith was his fist.

This time, Lilith didn't give in at all. Dark battle aura covered her right arm, and she resolutely met him with a punch.

“Boom!”

The strong air wave blew the Red and White Society members behind her away, and the surrounding ground shattered layer by layer. Lilith's fist was actually evenly matched with Kogg. This made Kogg say in disbelief.

“Your strength? How is that possible?”

Strick mocked from the side.

“Kogg, your attack is too weak. Such a big fist couldn't even suppress such a little girl.”

Although he said so, Strick had already prepared a surprise attack.

Two undead black knights suddenly appeared from Lilith's left and right, and the iron swords in their hands stabbed directly at Lilith's ribs. Lilith, who was wrestling with Kogg, was immediately in danger.

At this time, at the end of the team, Klein looked at Lilith in danger and was a little annoyed. He thought to himself.

“Although I didn't expect the rescue opportunity I was waiting for to appear so easily.

But, Lance, you bastard, are you eating shit? Can't you see Lilith's current situation? If you don't come out, I'll have to do it myself!”

Just as Klein was roaring in his heart, several shadow arrows flew from the side.

When the tip of the sword was less than a meter away from Lilith, it was shaken away by two shadow arrows. A figure suddenly appeared beside Lilith, blocking the black knight. This person was Lance.

Lance suddenly kicked Kogg's arm. The power of the demon bloodline could originally rival the Third Order Black Cross elite.

Coupled with the synthesis of the Potion, Lance at this time was already a Third Order SS-level disaster. Even Kogg, who held the Soul Stone, could not resist his power.

Kogg's huge body was kicked away by Lance, breaking a tree as thick as a person before barely stopping.

However, such an attack did not cause any substantial damage to Kogg's strong body. He quickly stood up, shook the dust off his body, and looked at Lance.

“Who are you!”

At this time, Lance's hair was scattered over his shoulders, his figure was slender, a long sword hung around his waist, and his face full of stubble, combined with his unrestrained eyes, gave him the feeling of a wandering swordsman.

Lance shook out Klein's Endless Wine Jug, took a sip, and burped before slowly saying to Kogg.

“Such a beautiful lady should not be treated like this!”

After saying that, Lance turned his head and looked at Lilith, blinked, and said softly.

“This beautiful lady, I really like your green hair. My name is Allen Longfellow, and I am a wandering shadow swordsman. Can you tell me your name?”

These words were actually taught by Klein hand-in-hand. If Lance said it himself, he probably wouldn't be able to say it in his entire life.

Because Lance would only write extremely poisonous cheesy love words to Marian in his notebook.

Klein, who had been observing Lance, was very satisfied with his image. This unrestrained appearance was in line with the persona of a wandering swordsman.

Lilith's brows twitched. Although she had known this process for a long time, when she looked at Lance at this time and recalled his gentle and elegant appearance in the Jie Society, the contrast was too great, making her feel a little... full!

However, she knew that this was all arranged by Klein, so she could only bite the bullet and cooperate, saying somewhat stiffly:

“My name is Lilith.”

“Oh! What a beautiful name, Miss Lilith, please wait a moment, I will help you deal with these scum immediately!”

Lance drew out the long sword from his waist and pointed directly at Kogg:

“You guys created these bone eaters, right? Hehe, as members of the Black Cross Army, you actually associate with magical beasts and even raise them in large numbers.

Trash like you shouldn't live in this world.”

These few lines were added by Lance himself, stiff and real, but most people really couldn't see it.

Looking at Lance, who was forcibly adding drama to himself, Klein was a little speechless. Okay, he had another identity as an envoy of justice.

Lance raised his hand and fired a shadow arrow. Kogg had already been prepared and met it with a punch.

But when he touched the shadow arrow, he realized something was wrong. This shadow arrow had no power at all.

“It's fake, not good, be careful, Strick!”

When Lance came, he had already observed these two Third Order experts. The other party had the amplification of the soul fragment, and even he didn't dare to be careless.

One was a physically strong melee fighter, and the other was a necromancer who had been standing in the distance.

In this situation, there was no need to think about which one to deal with first. If he didn't kill Strick first, not to mention his own strength.

Just the necromancer's group of annoying summons would be enough to give people a headache.

When Kogg reminded the necromancer Strick, Lance's figure had already come behind Strick like a ghost.

Although the long sword in his hand only slid past lightly, the power of shadow on the sword had an irresistible momentum.

Strick was secretly surprised. At this distance, he couldn't dodge at all, but he wasn't without a way to deal with it.

The skull in Strick's hand lit up with a black light, and his body immediately switched positions with a black knight, opening the distance from Lance.

Lance's long sword easily cut the black knight in two. Although it was a Third Order summon, the summons of the necromantic system were all the same, almost the weakest of the same rank.

Although the black knight was also Third Order, it was at least a D-level, no higher. Compared with the SS-level Lance, it was as weak as dregs. Looking at the black knight under his sword, Lance raised his eyebrows.

“Skull Society secret technique, Shadow Transfer? Hehe, how could people from the Skull Society be involved with the Dark Cross Army? No matter what, the Black Cross is also official, actually uniting with a cult?”

Strick clenched the skull head in his hand and said in a low voice.

“From the time we came, I was no longer a member of the Skull Society, and he will no longer be a member of the Dark Cross Army. You can call our current organization, Candle Demon.”

“Shadow Swordsman Allen, right? Now, you can die.”

The skull in Strick's hand opened its mouth, and Lance immediately felt as if his whole body was covered with shackles.

If he didn't have the demon bloodline's powerful shadow resistance, this move would have made him unable to move.

“Weakness Curse!”

Cooperating with Strick's curse, Kogg had already rushed up, turning his fist into a hand blade, black battle aura covering the hand blade, stabbing directly at Lance's back.
