Chapter 320

~15 min read 2,854 words

Piercing, miserable wails echoed incessantly across the battlefield!

The demi-humans, who were the most numerous, were dying in droves; the power of the Sixth Rank magic had already surpassed the ability of most people present to resist.

"Magic Armor!"

"Magic Armor!"

"Magic Armor!"

The Witch of Green Leaves cast three spells in one breath, layering magic protection onto herself, Enri, and the Evil Spirit Dog.

The rain of negative energy fire falling from the sky struck the magic armor, constantly causing ripple-like magical waves and continuously consuming the power of the magic protection.

"Miss Green Leaves, please, save them."

Enri looked anxiously at the Witch of Green Leaves, pointing toward the Paladins in the surrounding area.

"The power of the magic shield simply cannot last long; being able to protect the three of us is already my limit."

The Witch of Green Leaves stared at the magic armor on her body, which had already developed cracks in just a few moments; her bright yellow pupils constricted, and she responded coldly.

"Ah!"

"Ah!"

The screams of the surrounding Paladins rang out one after another.

Hearing this, Enri hurriedly ran to the side of the Evil Spirit Dog and rummaged through it for "Regeneration Potions."

"It's useless."

"Against this level of magic, the effect of the Regeneration Potion won't have time to take hold, and we don't have many potions to begin with; we can't save many people."

The Witch of Green Leaves guessed what Enri wanted to do and spoke up again to warn her.

Enri's hands stiffened as she watched the Paladins, who had been laughing and joking with her not long ago and even teaching her techniques, die one by one without any ability to resist; a sense of powerlessness flooded her heart once more.

"That woman named Kairet possesses resurrection magic and could resurrect them again," the Witch of Green Leaves continued.

"Captain said they can no longer be resurrected."

Enri muttered to herself, then suddenly lifted her head as if she had grasped a straw of hope:

"Captain must have a way!"

Thinking of the Captain, who was always full of confidence and composed no matter what happened.

Enri hurriedly turned around and soon found Tang Zheng, who was somewhat conspicuous with the Surveillance Authority Angel hovering above his head.

Slap!

Enri grabbed the fur on the Evil Spirit Dog with both hands, pulled hard, and flipped onto the Evil Spirit Dog's back.

"Xiao Hei, let's go to Captain's side," Enri said.

"What are you doing!"

The Witch of Green Leaves looked at Enri's actions, her expression turning somewhat ugly.

In this dangerous situation before them.

What could an ordinary human girl like you possibly do? Even Master would likely find this tricky right now.

However, Master also possesses the power of teleportation magic; taking them away from here calmly shouldn't be a problem.

The Witch of Green Leaves wanted to reach out to stop her and incidentally knock Enri unconscious to save some trouble, but suddenly, she remembered Tang Zheng's previous instructions.

The Witch of Green Leaves' eyes flickered, and in the end, she did not stop her.

"Awoo."

The Evil Spirit Dog let out a roar and began to run, carrying Enri.

The closer Enri got to the center of the battlefield, the more clearly she could see the humans and demi-humans killed by the fire falling from the sky.

Subconsciously.

Enri looked up at the figure of the Alliance Leader hovering above.

"Whether it's humans or demi-humans."

"Everyone clearly just wants to survive," Enri said, biting her lip with a pale face.

Whoosh!

The Evil Spirit Dog was very fast, moving rapidly through the rain of fire, crossing over the corpses on the ground, and rushing to Tang Zheng's location.

"Captain!"

Seeing Enri rush over from the safe rear.

Tang Zheng was stunned.

He wasn't stunned because of Enri's appearance, but because the peculiar feeling on Enri's body seemed to have become clearer.

"Captain, can you save them?"

Enri's voice was filled with a sobbing tone as she stumbled off the Evil Spirit Dog: "Captain, you must have a way, right?"

Tang Zheng reached out to steady Enri, who had almost fallen to the ground, looking at the girl before him with red-rimmed eyes and a face full of expectation.

The peculiar aura had become a bit clearer again!

This strange feeling was both a bit like the odd sensation Reynas gave Tang Zheng when her profession was unstable at the time, and a bit like the unstable fluctuations in life strength during the process of leveling up or down.

No!

Both of these feelings were very weak, as if they would disappear at any moment.

Tang Zheng's eyes narrowed.

The way people from the Other World acquire professions is not fixed and is not under their own control, so even asking Enri wouldn't yield any results.

Looking at Enri's expectant eyes.

Tang Zheng vaguely sensed that this "expectation" was connected to the strange feeling on Enri's body.

Good grief.

Plans really can't keep up with changes.

Tang Zheng glanced at Kairet's position out of the corner of his eye; the other party was currently not making any moves, merely frantically directing the priest group to summon angels to block the magic attacks from the sky.

He had originally planned to have his shadow clone face the Alliance Leader...

Now, he could only use another method.

"Yes, there is still a way."

Tang Zheng reached out his finger to wipe away the tears from the corner of Enri's eyes, speaking gently to give Enri a positive reply.

In an instant.

The strange feeling on Enri's body suddenly became a bit more stable, though overall it remained very ethereal.

"It is indeed related to Enri's own 'expectation'."

It felt as if his soul wanted to break free from his body and flee at this very moment.

The acquisition of professions is mostly traceable; even if acquired by accident, it is related to the long-term training, occupation, and behavioral habits of people from the Other World.

A situation like Enri's, which appeared out of nowhere, was completely baffling.

"Really!" Enri's tear-filled eyes revealed surprise.

Tang Zheng nodded again, his expression becoming serious: "Leave the rest to me; you stay here obediently."

After speaking.

Tang Zheng had the Surveillance Authority Angel fly above the Evil Spirit Dog and Enri, and he summoned another one for himself.

Looking up!

He gazed at the majestic, holy, and motionless Dominion Authority Angel hovering high in the sky.

"I can only try."

Slap!

The Surveillance Authority Angel supported Tang Zheng with one arm and quickly flapped its wings, flying toward the Dominion Authority Angel.

The cold white rain of fire continued to fall from the sky!

The figures of Tang Zheng and the Surveillance Authority Angel were like a white rainbow, and also like a moth throwing itself into the fire.

The negative energy fire rain landed on the Surveillance Authority Angel, and the rapid, dense collision sounds made all the humans and demi-humans on the ground look up in astonishment!

"He's crazy!"

Kairet looked up and spoke in disbelief.

Remedios, Go Jin, Clementine and others who had been knocked flying and were lying in some corner, all had the same thought rise in their hearts.

The Alliance Leader's strength was so great; what was the difference between Tang Zheng rushing at the enemy alone and throwing his life away!

"Captain!!"

Enri also reacted at this moment, her face full of terror.

High in the sky.

"Are priests this brave nowadays?"

"Since you want to die, then as you wish!"

The Alliance Leader sneered and raised his arm, aiming at Tang Zheng, who was rapidly ascending below:

"Dragon Lightning!"

Crack—

The blooming dragon-shaped lightning traced a curved trajectory in the air, turning into a bolt of thunder and striking down.

Facing this magic attack.

Boom!

The Surveillance Authority Angel's flight paused; it grabbed Tang Zheng with one hand and threw him violently toward the sky, then was struck by the Dragon Lightning, dissolving into points of light amidst the roar.

"That is... his target isn't the Alliance Leader, it's the Dominion Authority Angel?"

Remedios held her holy sword with both hands and kept swinging it to block the magic attacks falling from the sky, while her eyes stared fixedly at the figure in the air.

"What is this human doing?"

"Seven-Colored Scales" Ge Keshi, while directing the demi-humans to release magic defenses, lifted his head, his scarlet pupils revealing shock.

Clearly.

Everyone who noticed Tang Zheng's actions was completely confused.

Whoosh—

The sound of a gale blowing past his ears, Tang Zheng used the momentum of the Surveillance Authority Angel's throw to fly toward the Dominion Authority Angel.

Fortunately, the other party's body was large enough that he didn't need to worry about being thrown off course by the Surveillance Authority Angel.

"The effect of the potion hasn't been fully grasped yet, but this is all I can do for now."

Tang Zheng flipped his palm, took out a bottle of "Fusion Potion," and poured it all into his mouth.

In the plan, this potion was for trading experiments with the Slane Theocracy, but now he could only test it himself.

Under the gaze of one incredible look after another!

Tang Zheng crashed hard into the Dominion Authority Angel; the expected collision did not occur, and Tang Zheng, like a raindrop merging into a lake, had his entire body enter the interior of the Dominion Authority Angel.

Uproar!

The surviving members of the 【Sunlight Scripture】 opened their mouths, completely unable to understand what had just happened.

"He... disappeared." Kairet widened her eyes.

Swish~

Clatter~

Clatter—

Losing the control of the Magic Sealing Crystal, the Dominion Authority Angel, which had been motionless, suddenly began to flap its wings, showing some movement.

At this moment!

Tang Zheng, who had merged into the body of the Dominion Authority Angel, was somewhat arduously controlling this massive angel body.

The process looked smooth, but in reality, it was the exact opposite; the entire fusion process was quite difficult, and this was the first time Tang Zheng had merged into the body of an angel summoned by someone else.

"Previously, it was speculated that the success of merging with an angel was related to justice values, and now it has been verified."

Tang Zheng felt his whole body in a state of incompatibility and squeezing, arduously controlling the Dominion Authority Angel.

Who let his justice value not be high, always kept at a middle level.

Now.

The Dominion Authority Angel was not only difficult to control, but the sense of rejection was also very severe; Tang Zheng relied entirely on pure strength to resist this sense of rejection.

"As long as I can control it, move for me!"

Tang Zheng erupted with magic power, forcibly controlling the Dominion Authority Angel.

Outside.

The Dominion Authority Angel, which had originally only been flapping its wings slowly, began to move.

"Extreme Holy Strike!"

The Dominion Authority Angel raised the golden scepter in its hand and swung it toward the sky.

The dazzling, pure holy light turned into a pillar of light, blasting into the black clouds constructed of negative energy in the sky.

Boom—

A violent roar erupted in the sky.

The "Pale Fire" magic was directly shattered, the attack stopped and dissipated, and the scorching sunlight blocked by the negative energy black clouds once again sprinkled onto the earth.

The cold, terrifying feeling dissipated!

Most of the humans and demi-humans collapsed to the ground like survivors of a disaster; the Sixth Rank magic was simply too terrifying and dreadful.

In that brief moment just now, the human and demi-human side had lost half of their manpower.

The black mist on the Alliance Leader's body vibrated; looking at the Dominion Authority Angel, which had regained its ability to act and launched an attack on its own, his temples throbbed.

"How did you do it!"

The Alliance Leader's white pupils constricted, and he shouted the question.

That priest just now was actually able to fuse with the angel and could also indirectly control a Seventh Rank angel; what kind of special magic was this.

Impossible!

No matter how special the means of execution, with that priest's strength, it was impossible to control a Seventh Rank angel.

Innate talent?

No, he clearly noticed earlier that when that priest merged into the body of the Dominion Authority Angel, he drank a bottle of potion.

"What was that bottle of potion? Priest!"

The Alliance Leader seemed to have discovered something incomprehensible, and his usually calm emotions became somewhat agitated:

"As long as you tell me, I will spare your life!"

Tang Zheng naturally wouldn't respond; even if he wanted to respond, the Dominion Authority Angel didn't even have a head, so it couldn't make a sound.

Swish!

The Dominion Authority Angel's three pairs of wings shook, and its massive figure rushed toward the Alliance Leader at a speed far exceeding its size, the golden scepter in its hand directly used as a club to lash out.

Boom—

The golden scepter lashed out in the air, emitting a violent explosion, shattering the air in front of it with a single strike.

The golden scepter came into view.

A terrifying air wave swept over, and the Alliance Leader could only swallow the words in his mouth back down, using flight magic to dodge quickly.

The strike missed.

"Sanction Laser."

The Dominion Authority Angel puffed out its chest, and the red area in the center flashed with blinding red light, shooting out a bright red beam.

"Magic Shield!"

The Alliance Leader immediately activated magic defense.

The translucent magic shield collided with the Sanction Laser and exploded, and the Alliance Leader was knocked back again.

"Extreme Holy Strike."

A cyan-white pillar of light instantly descended above the Alliance Leader's head.

"Teleport!" The Alliance Leader shouted sharply, directly using teleportation magic to dodge:

"Magic Resistance Breakthrough - Dragon Lightning!"

Crack!

The blooming laser electric light twisted in mid-air, drawing a winding path, and struck heavily on the Dominion Authority Angel, leaving a scorched black area on the surface of its bright silver armored body.

"Sanction Laser."

"Negative Energy Impact!"

"Magic Resistance Breakthrough - Acid Spear!"

"Angel Protection."

"Slow!"

"Holy Attribute Defense!"

"Magic Resistance Breakthrough - Negative Energy Impact!"

"Angel Protection."

"Extreme Holy Strike."

"Teleport!"

"............!"

A fierce battle unfolded in the sky, and the terrifying magic aftermath easily blasted deep pits into the ground whenever it landed.

This was a High Rank battle that surpassed the imagination of everyone present.

The Dominion Authority Angel didn't care about being injured, but the Alliance Leader couldn't afford not to care; the consequences of being hit by magic would be death or disability.

This resulted in the Dominion Authority Angel controlled by Tang Zheng pressing the Alliance Leader back in a powerful posture, forcing him to adopt defensive measures.

"Damn priest——"

The Alliance Leader was slightly disheveled, constantly dodging the Dominion Authority Angel's magic attacks.

The other party's offensive was too fierce, giving him no time to catch his breath at all.

What annoyed the Alliance Leader the most was that the priest controlling the Dominion Authority Angel was completely ignoring the magic he released, carrying out a suicidal offensive.

The other party wasn't afraid of being injured at all; of course, even if injured, it was the Dominion Authority Angel!

This—was too cheap.

This thought actually popped into the Alliance Leader's mind for a moment; how long had it been since he was forced into such a situation?

Even that red-robed mage was only a bit tricky because of the bone dragon.

"No, I must figure out how the other party merged into the angel's body."

The Alliance Leader's eyes grew hotter, and he activated defensive magic again, flying while dodging.

A weak magic caster was actually able to control a powerful summoned creature through such means; the significance of this—

With a "gulp" sound,

The Alliance Leader's throat moved rarely, and greed was revealed in his cold white eyes; he must capture this priest alive and learn about this power from the other party's mouth!

Rumble!

Rumble!

The fierce magic collisions caused the sky to continuously emit muffled, thunder-like loud noises.

"Really troublesome."

Tang Zheng controlled the Dominion Authority Angel, watching the Alliance Leader circling and dodging around him like a fly, feeling somewhat uncomfortable.

The Alliance Leader had too many small tricks; some magic wasn't powerful, but it could weaken the angel, while the Dominion Authority Angel and such summoned monsters had limited means of attack.

However, this kind of high-intensity magic battle.

The most uncomfortable one was the Alliance Leader.

"This kind of urgent offensive is a bit abnormal."

While the Alliance Leader's expression was ugly, his eyes revealed contemplation; the angel summoned by the monster had a time limit:

"Hehe, no wonder he adopted this suicidal offensive; is he trying to finish me off within the time the angel is summoned?"

"Need to further save magic power to stall for time."

The Alliance Leader quickly determined his strategy.
