Chapter 443

Of course, if Xiro were willing to abandon his plan, then it wouldn't be entirely without room for easing.

A more important point was that Lu Li had a feeling that Xiro and the others appearing here was highly likely related to the Black Core.

He still remembered Sister Sister Daji and Baosi mentioning that to conquer the Boundary City, one must collect a sufficient quantity of Black Cores.

If there really was a Black Core inside the High School Academy, then Lu Li had no intention of giving up or handing it over.

It was safest and most reassuring to keep this quest item in his own hands.

Sure enough! The other party possessed quite a bit of information!

Thinking of this, Xiro also knew that continuing to negotiate would be meaningless; he also realized that the goals of the two sides were in conflict from the start.

It was unrealistic to want the other party to give up, and he, likewise, had no intention of abandoning his goal.

Persevering Person! Strong Shield Assault!

The two sides had cooperated for a long Finish Finish Time, and Ronak and the others were very clear about Xiro's thoughts.

In an instant, everyone entered a combat state; Ronak directly raised his giant shield, shielding everyone behind him.

The huge shield enveloped everything; as Finish Finish Time passed, Persevering Person could increase Ronak's defensive strength and health cap almost without limit.

Combined with the Strong Shield Assault skill, once attacked during defense, Ronak could instantly counter-attack; it could be said to be both offensive and defensive.

While Ronak moved to defend, Dalwila and Oruxia also made their moves.

Dalwila still used the combination of Ghost Shadows and Shadow Swamp; although this combination hadn't caused damage to Lu Li and Baosi in the initial battle.

But now, this Finish Finish Time, he wasn't alone.

Scarlet Thorn! Flower of Evil!

Compared to Ronak's plainness and Dalwila's terror, Oruxia's skill release was full of aesthetic beauty.

Endless thorns unfolded under Oruxia's summoning; even on the Shadow Swamp summoned by Dalwila, scarlet thorns surged.

Above the scarlet thorns, the Flowers of Evil bloomed; the entire space was instantly filled with malice, launching mental attacks on the surroundings at every moment.

Not only that, the blooming Flowers of Evil seemed to have a life of their own; the flower buds slowly opened their blood-red maws filled with sharp teeth, and with the flow of the scarlet thorns, they launched attacks toward Lu Li and Baosi.

Joyful Chord! Song of Victory! Sound of Silence!

The last to act was Flora; although this healer had kept her eyes closed the whole Finish Finish Time, looking harmless, she didn't hold back at all when she made her move, instantly releasing three skills.

Joyful Chord and Song of Victory acted directly on their own side, significantly increasing the abilities and attack intensity of the other three Divine Artifact Users.

As for the final Sound of Silence, it didn't act on their own side but directly on Lu Li and Baosi.

The area where the two were located fell into silence at this moment, or rather, a magic-sealing state.

In this state, all elements were no longer active; in this situation, it was basically impossible to release skills unless one used their own stored magic power.

But, one's own stored magic power was limited; even S-rank Divine Artifact Users could only support combat for a short Finish Finish Time.

835. What kind of monster is this!

"Tank, mage, healer; this feels a bit like a group fight, but it's a pity it feels like it's missing a physical attacker." Seeing the actions of Ronak, Dalwila, and the others, Lu Li couldn't help but raise his brows.

Although it was missing a physical attacker, it couldn't be denied that the coordination between these four Divine Artifact Users could indeed cause quite a bit of pressure.

Even if an Eleven-Star level Magic Card Spirit were to come, they might be at a disadvantage if they were careless and get injured by the other party's attacks.

But unfortunately, his side wasn't someone to be trifled with, especially since Baosi wasn't an Eleven-Star level Magic Card Spirit, but a Twelve-Star level one.

In terms of individual strength, Baosi's combat power was even stronger than an SS-rank Divine Artifact User of the Boundary City.

Within the entire Boundary City, there might be existences capable of threatening Baosi, but these existences clearly did not include Xiro and the others before them.

Mirror Flower, Water Moon!

Without even seeing Baosi make a move, her body and Lu Li's body were like flowers in a mirror and the moon in the water; even when hit by the attacks of Ronak, Dalwila, and the others, neither of them suffered any damage.

All attacks hitting the two were like passing through a screen of light, merely stirring up ripples.

Aside from that, there was no effect.

Seeing this scene, Ronak, Oruxia, and the others instantly understood why Dalwila had said that just now.

The enemies this Finish Finish Time were not to be trifled with.

Under the influence of Flora's Sound of Silence, they were still able to release skills so easily, and they were able to take their attacks so easily without causing any damage.

Such strength, even an S3-level Divine Artifact User probably couldn't do it so effortlessly!

"It seems my guess was still too conservative." After losing his mask, everyone could see Dalwila's expression; this Divine Artifact User's face now also looked quite ugly.

"Don't be distracted; the opponent's attack is coming." Ronak reminded in a low voice, gripping the giant shield in his hand a few points tighter.

Even with the influence of Flora's Sound of Silence, the opponent was able to block their attacks so easily; Ronak believed that once the opponent launched an attack, the destruction caused would definitely exceed his imagination.

Hearing Ronak's reminder, Dalwila and Oruxia also tightened their eyes and quickly pulled themselves together.

As for Flora, this healer had kept her eyes closed from beginning to end, without any unusual movements, silently releasing skills, always giving off a feeling of not fitting in.

"Did you think this would be effective?" Seeing the actions of Ronak and the others, Baosi just smiled lightly.

A smile that could topple a city!

The next moment, Ronak's gaze froze, and he instantly turned around; the giant shield he was holding also shifted from aiming at Lu Li and Baosi to aiming at Dalwila and Oruxia, as if these two were the enemies.

Boom!

Ronak's action seemed very sudden, but it was precisely because of this action that he blocked the sudden attack from behind.

However, Ronak's action this Finish Finish Time was only temporary; even though he blocked the attacks of Dalwila and Oruxia, he was also blasted back step by step.

"Dalwila, Oruxia, what are you doing?" Seeing this scene, Xiro, who was not a Divine Artifact User and had no combat ability, questioned them.

Unfortunately, neither Dalwila nor Oruxia responded to the other party; instead, they continued to launch attacks, and their targets were precisely Xiro and Flora.

Assault Shield!

The large shield was violently thrust into the ground, forcibly stopping his retreating figure; Ronak directly used an Assault Shield to interrupt the attacks of Dalwila and Oruxia.

"They must have been controlled by the opponent," Flora's voice rang out at the right Finish Finish Time, her tone filled with urgency: "Xiro, let's leave first; now that Dalwila and Oruxia are both controlled, only I and Ronak remain, and we don't have enough ability to deal with the changes that follow."

Hearing Flora's words, Xiro's expression remained cold and stern; he didn't respond to the other party immediately, his eyes staring coldly at the entire battlefield.

However, Dalwila and Oruxia still showed no signs of waking up, and the two continued to launch attacks at their own people without a word.

0 Begging for flowers

It was fortunate that Ronak's strength was the strongest among them and he was specialized in defense; otherwise, they probably wouldn't have been able to hold on for so long.

However, no matter how strong Ronak's defense was, he wouldn't be able to hold on for a long Finish Finish Time.

"Xiro!" After using another Assault Shield to knock away the two controlled people, Ronak roared in a low voice.

He hadn't forgotten that besides Dalwila and Oruxia, Lu Li and Baosi were still on the scene; the threat level of these two was far greater than that of Dalwila and Oruxia.

"Go!" Biting his lip until it bled, if he could, Xiro didn't want to give up the Black Core in the High School Academy just like that; after all, it was related to his plan.

.... ...

Even, if he could, Xiro wouldn't be unable to accept sacrificing Oruxia and Dalwila.

But, just as Flora said, with only her and Ronak—one tank, one healer—without an attacker, there was no way to deal with the changes that might occur next.

Therefore, they had to temporarily retreat from here.

Moreover, they had to take Oruxia and Dalwila with them; otherwise, this trip would truly be a case of losing the wife and losing the army.

Absolute Domain!

With Xiro's confirmation, Flora directly unleashed her ultimate; the Absolute Domain covered the area where they were located at this moment, and everything fell into prohibition.

The movements of Oruxia and Dalwila, who were originally attacking Ronak, were slowed down infinitely at this moment.

However, the two still hadn't broken free from control.

Prophecy Silence!

Although she didn't open her eyes, Flora seemed to know everything happening on the battlefield; the exclusive shadow gear Prophecy emerged, and endless musical notes appeared, instantly forming a movement on Oruxia and Dalwila.

"I have only temporarily sealed the actions of these two; I haven't let them break free from control." After doing all this, Flora spoke immediately, her voice filled with urgency: "If we can't leave here immediately, perhaps it won't be long before they break through my seal."

836. Are you a Saint Seiya?

"Ronak, take them both, retreat!" Even after using the ability of her exclusive shadow gear, she could only seal Oruxia and Dalwila and couldn't let them break free from control and wake up; Xiro could be considered truly giving up.

This trip to the High School Academy had too many variables that exceeded his expectations, especially these Divine Artifact Users who had popped out of nowhere and possessed such powerful strength.

Even if those people from the Central Court had come, Xiro wouldn't have been as depressed as he was now.

Assault Shield!

After using another Assault Shield to knock out the sealed Oruxia and Dalwila, Ronak intended to take the two and retreat.

As for Xiro, with Flora there, Ronak was not so worried; what he was more worried about now was that Lu Li and Baosi didn't intend to let them leave just like that.

"Quite an interesting ability," just as Ronak thought, Baosi didn't intend to let them leave safely just like that: "However, did I say you could leave?"

Flora's ability was indeed strong; with skill combinations, she could even seal the two to a certain extent, letting them briefly break free from her control.
