Purple lightning streaked across the sky.
The Chuchu King's wrist was severed at the root, and the cut surface showed a strange crystallization.
Wanye fell in front of a figure wearing a wide straw hat, beneath which a pair of cold, purple eyes were revealed.
"You guys...you're disturbing me."
Before the lightning on the skirmisher's fingertips had even dissipated, three Hilichurl King corpses had already fallen behind him.
Each one was pierced precisely through the chest by an evil eye, killing them instantly.
"The Fools...Executor..."
Man-yo struggled to sit up.
------
"Scattered soldiers have entered the game."
Qingyu whistled, looking at the purple chess piece that had suddenly appeared on the chessboard.
Zhang Chu calmly took a sip of tea: "It's within the plan. This guy has been fighting in the Abyss for hundreds of years, so it's normal for him to come here after smelling the scent."
Gu Qian's eyes gleamed with amazement: "They took down three Hilichurl Kings so quickly, truly worthy of being the Fatui Enforcer..."
Er Kang suddenly revealed a sly smile: "We can't let him have it too easy."
He then placed a special Water-type Hilichurl Ranger piece on the board.
The moment the chess piece was placed, strange abyssal runes appeared on its surface.
------
"Hichurls can use Evil Eye too... "
Just as the stragglers were about to crush the evil eye of the fourth Hilichurl King, they suddenly felt a chilling sensation coming from behind.
He suddenly turned to the side, and a dark blue water blade grazed past his straw hat, silently slicing a distant reef in two.
The stragglers squinted.
The water-based Hilichurl Ranger emerged slowly from the waves, his armor adorned with dark purple patterns distinct from those of other Hilichurls.
The two blades it wielded dripped corrosive liquid continuously, and with each step it took, the seawater beneath its feet would boil and evaporate.
"Creations of the abyss..."
The soldiers' fingertips coalesced into even more intense lightning.
"interesting."
The Water-type Hilichurl Ranger suddenly accelerated, moving so fast that it left afterimages.
The skirmisher had just raised his hand to block when he discovered that his opponent's figure turned into a puddle of seawater the instant they made contact—at the same time, the real killing move came from behind!
At the critical moment, the skirmisher used a mine wedge to block the backstab.
The shockwave generated by the collision of the two forces sent all the soldiers within a ten-meter radius flying.
"Boss! What's going on?"
Wan Ye clutched his chest and retreated to Bei Dou's side.
Beidou's heavy sword cleaved through a sneak-attacking Hilichurl thug, and he grinned, "Watching the gods fight."
The stragglers crashed down at Beidou's feet like rag dolls, their straw hats spinning and flying off to stick into the sand.
Beidou's eyes widened, forgetting even to wipe the blood and foam from his mouth: "Huh? Brother, you're already done for?"
"You can't say whoever you want!"
The soldier leaped up in fury, countless bolts of lightning exploding from the hem of his purple clothes.
Just as he was about to rush out, a spiral water column with a diameter of two meters suddenly blasted from the side, sending him flying more than thirty meters.
The Waterwalker's figure appeared and disappeared in the water column, and the next second he transformed into flowing water and seeped into the center of the Fools' formation.
(They were all chess pieces, and were discovered by skirmishers as they passed by. The skirmishers thought they were dealing with the Abyss.)
When it reformed, it was already surrounded by three hundred advance team members.
"It's among us!"
The Thunderfire Sorcerer's scream ripped through the battlefield.
What awaited them was—
"Abyss: Dance of the Vortex!"
The Waterwalking Ranger spread his arms and spun rapidly like a top.
Two high-pressure water blades spun in perfect, deadly arcs, tearing metal armor apart like paper wherever they went.
Ice Fatty's shield was shredded into ice shards the moment it lit up, Thunder Hammer's Thunder Hammer was broken into three pieces, and Wind Fist's arm was still spinning in the air, while its master had already turned into scattered pieces of flesh.
Within a 50-meter radius, blood rained down instantly.
"Scum! Look here!"
Scattered soldiers descended from the sky, their palms condensing into spheres of thunder that illuminated the entire battlefield.
Just as the devastating lightning was about to strike—
The Water-type Hill Climber has disappeared.
No, it's almost to the point of disappearing.
When the soldier realized his chest had lightened, the abyssal monster was already hovering in front of him, toying with his evil eye by its fingertips.
A dark purple evil eye gleamed dangerously in its palm.
The shattered Evil Eye unleashed a final burst of thunder, and under the cover of the explosion, the Water Hilichurl Ranger's iron-like hand gripped the skirmisher's throat.
The next second, a trench a hundred meters long appeared on the beach of Nashii Beach—it was plowed out by the bodies of the stragglers.
"You bastard! How dare you..."
The stragglers coughed up blood and tried to get up, only to be met with an infinitely magnified water elemental punch.
The punch was so powerful that everyone on the battlefield saw the purple meteor streak flying across the entire area.
When the stragglers landed on Beidou's feet again, the sand beneath him had already vitrified due to the high temperature.
Beidou, carrying his greatsword, looked down at the stragglers embedded in the sandpit, smoking, and then looked up at the water-walking hillbillies in the distance, slaughtering the remaining Fools.
She opened her mouth, but only managed to utter one sentence:
"...Do you need me to call a doctor?"
The stragglers' trembling fingers dug deep into the sand as they forced out a few words through clenched teeth: "I...want...to...kill...that...scum..."
Meanwhile, Er Kang, sitting in front of the board game, was proudly affixing the "MVP" label to his Water-type Hill Climber chess piece.
Did they win in Chapter 43...?
The broken and battered body of the scattered soldier twitched slightly in the heart of the Coral Palace.
Intricate gears and conduits were exposed at the broken joint, and pale purple liquid kept seeping from the wound—he was losing the energy he needed to move.
"hateful......"
The stragglers' only remaining left hand grasped at the air in vain.
Not far away, the Waterwalking Hill Crawler was casually tossing his right arm into the burning ruins like trash.
"Lord Coral Palace! Run!"
Goro's roar suddenly rang out.
Before Xin Hai could even turn his head, he heard a sharp, teeth-grinding "snap"—the once spirited dog ears beneath the spiked boots of the Chuqiu King had stopped twitching forever.
"Goro——!!"
The screams from the depths of the heart tore through the clamor of the battlefield.
The stragglers in her arms could clearly see that something in the eyes of this usually composed strategist had shattered completely.
Beidou roared like thunder: "Damn it! I'll fight you to the death!"
She swung her greatsword and cleaved through three heavily armored Hilichurls, ignoring the fact that the blade was bent.
But just as she was about to rush towards Goro's corpse—
"Crash!"
Suddenly, a barbed chain wrapped around her ankle.
As Beidou staggered and fell, he saw the other end of the chain connected to the winch on the waist of the Qiuqiu thug.
With the clicking sound of the machinery, she was dragged towards the imposing array of guns.
"Big sister!"
Wan Ye wanted to rush over, but his injuries stopped him in his tracks.
When the first spear pierced Beidou's shoulder, she was still able to roar and break the spear shaft.
When the second bullet pierced her thigh, she spat out a mouthful of blood.
When the seventh and eighth arrows pierced her chest and abdomen simultaneously, the once mighty sea queen of Liyue finally collapsed to her knees.
"Cough...ha..."
Beidou looked at the spearhead emerging from his body and suddenly grinned.
Her bloodstained teeth were glaringly obvious in the firelight: "Southern Cross... Never..."
The last half-sentence remained stuck in his throat forever.
The hillbillies mechanically withdrew their spears, leaving the riddled body lying in a pool of blood.
Man-yo's pupils contracted to the size of pinpoints.
Suddenly, the Eye of the Unowned God at his waist emitted a burst of purple light, but before he could act, a cold hand from the Heart Sea pressed him down.
"Don't move...you're too badly injured..."
