ng till afternoon today.And beside the goddess, the mage girl who was originally her teammate, a noble from the Creys Empire, had also woken up.The noble mage girl is not a member of the Resurrection...Chapter 333: Lan Qi's Unknown Strength, Growing Stronger Against Adversity

The entire sunken city of Bandar lay crumbling, becoming like dust in the wind, seemingly ready to be consumed by this battle at any moment.

In the sky, a colossal vortex of energy began to form. The moment of total darkness, the eclipse, had finally arrived, ready to obliterate and consume everything around it.

As the fighting raged once more, fissures began to spread across the shattered remnants of the city-state. These chasms gaped open like bottomless pits, spewing forth a miasma of noxious fumes, as if the gates of hell had been torn asunder.

The majestic towers and grand ancient architecture of the Protoss Empire crumbled like paper in this battle, becoming relics of history.

The black-clad figure's sudden appearance, wielding a chain of darkness that overwhelmed Sigrid's resistance even more than Asksang's sealing magic, left her struggling. Her movements, once swift and agile, were now sluggish compared to before. Meanwhile, Asksang found himself in command, effortlessly preparing his sealing arts, instantly placing them in an inescapable zone around Sigrid.

Under their combined efforts, Sigrid found herself in an unprecedented predicament.

She was forced to evade continuously, but each time it was extremely difficult. And whenever she tried to counterattack, she would always be interrupted by one of them in time, preventing her from exerting half of her strength.

One beat two isn't the worst thing, the worst thing is that the two opponents can still cooperate with each other.

That eighth-tier epic summon caused her great trouble.

Even so, she was still unwilling to prioritize killing the black worm.

In the absence of information, rashly killing it could very well lead to more serious consequences.

There are a few possibilities. Either it will put her in a fatally negative state, or the bugs could evolve into more troublesome forms. In the most extreme scenario, killing them could result in self-inflicted, catastrophic damage and an immediate loss.

And both of these enemies were skilled at control and output, making it impossible for her to shift the battlefield. She could only endure the negative effects of the summoned creature's aura while defending against the two, also taking care not to accidentally kill the insects.

Even so, Sigrid refused to back down. Relying on her physical prowess and fighting spirit, she relentlessly searched for a way to break through the duo's defenses.

Though her terms of victory weren't winning, but escaping, today it seemed even fleeing this city-state would be as difficult as climbing to heaven.

The only way now is to severely injure the robed man first, forcing him to be unable to maintain the summoning of [Abyssal Blackworm], this large eighth-order epic summon. The best strategy when a summoned creature can't be dispelled is to dispel the summoner!

"Siegfried, you can't possibly think you can stall until nightfall. There are still several hours to go."

Asksar watched Sigrid struggling, focusing his magic at his fingertips. The air in front of him twisted and warped, forming a deep gray fissure. Anything it consumed seemed to be crushed instantly.

Lines of grey block Sigrid's dodging range in space.

He knew her nature well. Even when she was at a disadvantage, as long as she dragged him into the night and under the moonlight, she would gain that irrational boost to her power and regenerative abilities.

Once he almost fell for this woman.

They had the wind at their backs today, and she'll never get to see the moon rise!

Finally, as Asksang began to attack, seeking to restrict Sigrid's movements, she seized a fleeting moment of opportunity, silently surging forward and striking again with the speed of silver lightning.

At this crucial moment, the robed man had also caught her movement. Black chains emerged from the ground, weaving into a cage that shattered her attack. At the same time, the gray lines laid by Askasan began to expand until they intersected and exploded.

The powerful impact sent Sigrid flying backwards, slamming into the ground far away. She tumbled several times before coming to a stop.

She struggled to her feet, the pain and the pressure from the two of them making her feel incredibly sluggish.

The more she fought, the clearer it became that dragging things on until nightfall wouldn't be so easy.

"Brave, Baitian Catholic, but you should also know, what are your chances of winning now"

The voice of the hooded man rose, like a cold wind.

"Isn't that little wretch waiting outside for his death your new Saint Son Quickly give up on him and call back your [Psychic Puppet] to help you"

Asksar's magic swept across the battlefield, now more effortlessly than ever, disrupting Sigrid's composure.

He didn't expect Sigrid to choose such a weak new Overlord. If it weren't for that burden, her combat strength would be several points higher, and the hope of escaping alone would increase by a little bit.

For so many years, Asksang had never felt that the Heavenly Church was so easy to defeat.

Although a new sealing spell had been prepared for the next battle to kill Sieglinde, she unexpectedly came to this desolate northern border of the Empire.

"It's a pity, I wanted to have my Annihilation Saint Son kill another Heavenly Ruler Saint Woman. But after today, there will be no more Heavenly Ruler branch in the world."

「……」

No matter how infuriating Asksand's words were to Sigrid, she remained silent. Blood trickled down from her eyebrow, her icy eyes held only the cold resolve of battle.

She promised to protect the Holy Child, and she would never break her promise.

In this world, all she has is courage and credit; she will not sacrifice them for a mere life!

……

At the ruins of the ancient city of Bandar, far away.

From Lance's perspective, Sieglinde was no longer the carefree girl he used to chat with. She was a lonely warrior god driven into desperation by a divine opponent.

This ruined city-state was constantly accompanied by a cacophony of sounds, punctuated at times by an unsettling silence that hung heavy in the air. If the silence persisted, it meant Siegfried had been taken.

In a town that could fall into silence at any moment, Lan Chi could clearly feel that the battlefield far away, beyond his reach, was the distance between mortals and gods.

Even standing here, without the protection of the silver doll, he could be seriously injured at any moment from the aftershocks of the battlefield.

To participate in a battle of this scale, at least the seventh rank is required. Otherwise, if you were to mistakenly enter it, every detail, every moment would instantly vaporize the fragile human body.

But after the appearance of that mysterious black-robed figure, comparable to a bishop, Lance also confirmed that his father was utterly unbeatable. She needed a little help.

"Doll, do you have your own consciousness"

Lan Chi looked at the silver figurine beside him, its silhouette identical to that of Sid.

The silver doll nodded.

Although most of the time it is Sigrid who controls her, when Sigrid does not have the energy to control her, she also operates autonomously, fulfilling and completing Sigrid's instructions to protect Ranchi.

"Can you protect me later and take me somewhere else"

Lane gazed at her intently, and continued, "

The silver figurine hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

She was commanded to protect the Holy Child, and the Holy Child's priority superseded her own judgment. Therefore, when Sieglinde had no instructions, she would follow the Holy Child's requests.

Lan Qi lightly tapped her toes, staring at her shadow.

The cat owner in the shadow has been frightened to tears.

"Cat boss, are you ready to help me with a spell Also, please don't bring the [Fake Stone Tablet - Wind] ."

He whispered to her softly.

Using [Counterfeit Slate - Wind] in this situation could cause Sigrid to lose trust in you at a critical moment, or seriously interfere with her judgment.

In the worst-case scenario, her personality becomes extremely volatile. Even if she gave it her all to die alongside Askshan, she wouldn't want to be saved by the Great Priest and end up in his hands.

"Alright...okay..."

Even though the cat boss knew Lanchi was being mischievous, he could only tremble and respond to Lanchi's subtle sounds.

After finishing the conversation with the cat boss.

Lan Qi's eyes were fixed on the Abyssal Black Worm.

He had never seen such a high-end summon!
