Unparalleled Double Harmony

Chapter 551 The Beginning of the Ceremony

Chapter 551 The Beginning of the Ceremony

Can this man run faster than a dog?

Generally speaking, definitely not.

But Coman is obviously not an ordinary person... Don't think that he is an accountant just because he worked as an accountant in a circus for a month.

Even if he is, he is only at the level of the protagonist in the movie "The Accountant". In today's terms, he is a "soldier king".

So at least in the short term, with the help of some obstacles in the banquet hall and flexible movement, Coman was able to avoid being bitten by the big dog.

However, this kind of maneuvering undoubtedly has its limits. While escaping, Coman took the opportunity to hit the big dog with his sword a few times and found that... this monster's defense was really high. It would be difficult to kill it by himself, so he had to call for help.

After Coman shouted, he just "walked" the big dog to the middle area of ​​the banquet hall, which was the dance floor.

There was no furniture that could serve as an obstacle in this area, so the big dog instantly closed the distance between itself and Coman.

Of course, this is also within Koeman's calculations.

As a frequent hunter, he knew very well that the prey's defenses were at their weakest when it thought it was about to take the bait.

In the current situation, Coman is both the hunter and the bait.

It happened in a flash. Just as the monster opened its bloody mouth and was about to bite Coman's head, Coman suddenly bent his knees, lowered his body, twisted his waist and stepped on the ground.

The next second, he rushed forward from under the belly of the big dog while staying close to the ground. In the process of rushing forward, he raised the sword in his hand upwards and used the momentum of the big dog to cut a hole in its belly.

Anyone who has kept a pet should know that whether it is a cat or a dog, the friction of their claws on smooth floors or tile surfaces is worrying, especially when "starting" and "braking". So at this moment, this big dog must not be able to "brake" for a while on this dance floor that is so smooth that it can reflect a person's face. It was helpless against Coman's counter-attack.

However, Coman's sword was still not fatal.

Even if there was a cow here today, it would have been ripped open by Coman's move, but this big dog managed to withstand the attack, leaving only a bleeding scar on its belly.

"Ow—"

After being injured, the monster immediately let out a violent howl. Before the howl ended, it stopped its advance and immediately turned around and jumped up, pouncing towards Coman.

Fortunately, Sun Yixie just jumped down from the terrace on the second floor at this time.

Seeing this, someone will definitely say - Brother Sun is going to K-head again!

Then let me ask you...

Forget it, you're right, I don't think I really have anything to ask.

The monster, whose attention was completely focused on Coman, was basically a huge target for Sun Yixie who fell from the sky. Two seconds later, Sun Yixie chopped down with his halberd, cutting the monster in half in mid-air.

If Coman had not reacted quickly and rolled to the side, he would not have been bitten to death by the big dog, but would have been seriously injured by the two pieces of the body flying towards him due to inertia.

"Oh my god! I didn't realize you're so capable, Old Kobe." After Sun Yixie landed, he saw that Coman was fine and started chatting with him.

"Hmph... Not bad." And this Coman, after all, is a noble lord. Even though his life was hanging by a thread just now, he still stood up to put on airs. "If I hadn't been away from the battlefield for so many years, maybe I could have solved it myself, but thank you for your help."

What he said was not entirely bragging. If he were ten years younger, he would really have a chance to kill this monster alone.

"Okay, okay. It's just a piece of cake." Sun Yixie did not argue with Koeman's bragging, but chose to show off himself.

Just as the business relationship between the two people was getting better and better...

"Get out of the dance floor!" A shout suddenly came from a distance.

The one who shouted this was none other than Tyrael.

Since Tyrael had just explored a path in the corner of the banquet hall, it took him about half a minute to hear the call for help and return. He just arrived.

Because Tyrael was standing far away from the dance floor, he could just see a change that Sun Yixie and Coman, who were standing on the dance floor, could not see. That was the chandelier above the dance floor. The "pentagram" at the bottom was getting brighter and emitting a red light.

Normally, even people standing under the light should be able to notice this change, but at this time a large amount of blood was flowing out of the monster's chopped-off body and slowly spreading on the dance floor, so the two people standing not far from the body took it for granted that the red light around them was just the light reflected by the bloody floor, and ignored it.

Now that Tyrael had reminded them of this, both of them were shocked.

However, despite their surprise, they reacted quickly, especially Sun Yixie. He didn't care about anything and just raised his hand to push Coman out, then rushed out of the dance floor.

During this process, Sun Yixie suddenly realized something, so he quickly looked up and found that the chandelier had indeed changed.

The reason for this change is implied in our book: a large amount of blood appeared under the "pentagram", thus starting the first step of a certain ritual.

Of course, in reality, this ritual needs to proceed several steps before it can affect the people standing under the lamp, but Tyrael didn't know this. When he saw something unusual, there was nothing wrong with reminding his companions.

Speaking of "reminders", Sun Yixie quickly thought of this: Logically, Dan, who was standing at the edge of the stairs on the second floor, should have noticed the changes in the chandelier earlier than Tyrael. Why didn't he say a word?

Thinking of this, Sun Yixie immediately looked towards the stairs, only to find that... Dan, who had rushed out of the lounge on the second floor with him, had disappeared.

"It's bad!" Sun Yixie said "bad" because he had realized something and had a very bad premonition.

Two seconds later, he used his Qinggong skills to climb up the ladder, and climbed to the second floor following the red light under the chandelier.

However, when he opened the door of the lounge, he found that the room was empty, and not only was the parchment on the table missing, but the mirror was also broken.

Even though Sun Yixie intended to chase Dan again, there were corridors on both sides of the stairs on the second floor, which had never been explored before. Who knew how deep these two roads were and how many forks there were.

With no other options, Sun Ge could only stand there and curse "Fuck you"...

…………

At the same time, on Huang Donglai's side.

Not long ago, when the "pentagram" on Sun Yixie's side began to glow, the castle on Huang Ge's side began to shake.

Huang Donglai had hoped to wait for Sun Yixie to return to the mirror so he could ask him what happened, but he didn't expect that what he got was just a black shadow smashing into the mirror.

After the mirror broke, the connection between the two sides was naturally cut off. Roman immediately went to ask Maria what this "earthquake" was about, but Maria became a little abnormal since the shaking began. She suddenly became weird and seemed to be unable to hear anything the three people said to her. She also kept muttering something over and over again.

"Quiet..." Huang Donglai saw that the communication was fruitless, so he signaled the other two to stop talking and listen carefully to what Maria was muttering.

But the three of them held their breath, endured the vibration of the castle, and tried hard to hear a complete sentence: "Remember to put oil when frying eggs, remember to put oil when frying eggs..."
