Chapter 223: Chapter 139: The Other feels awkward in front of the Dumbass (Seeking recommendation votes)
“Glub.”
Mist, boundless white mist, blocked everyone’s view of what lay beyond the barrier.
“It’s too quiet.”
For some reason, despite the silence, Abadun’s hand gripping the Radiant Spear was sweating.
“Hmm.”
Shuster too was unnerved by the silence, his scalp prickling: “It’s been over 3 minutes.”
For a full three minutes, there had been no sound from outside, everything hidden beneath the mist.
There were no roars from the sea monsters, and even the fish monsters and sea beasts that knew nothing of death seemed to have vanished without a trace.
“Are they really planning to attack?”
“Don’t let your guard down.”
Witches like Miya and Sheila rode brooms, while Fiona rode a Silver Wing Unicorn, all of them staring intently at the eastern barrier wall and the clearly visible rolling white fog.
The witches were high in the air, and about twenty meters above their heads was the top of the barrier.
“It’s all white up there.”
Miya said so, lifting her head to focus on the very center at the top of the barrier.
“There’s something over there.”
Sheila pointed somewhere, and Miya quickly looked in that direction: “Is there? It’s just fog.”
“No, just now, it seemed like something was moving.”
“Moving?”
Miya concentrated, directing her attention to where Sheila was pointing. She leaned forward slightly, causing the magic broom to also move a bit forward.
“Woo~~”
A woman’s weeping came from within the mist, Miya: “It sounds like… a woman is crying, no, singing, singing very sadly.”
“Where?”
“There!”
Miya pointed ahead and then, through the hazy white mist, the witches indeed saw the figure of a woman.
She was small, completely naked, and her body was indistinguishable from that of a normal person, yet she floated hundreds of meters in the air, emerging from the mist with no support whatsoever.
“What is that?”
The witches immediately drew out their magic wands, aiming them at the woman who seemed to sense the threat and promptly pleaded.
“This…”
Miya and Sheila exchanged glances but before they could react, the woman let out a piercing scream and was abruptly dragged into the white mist as if by something inside.
“Ah!!!!!”
She struggled frantically, trying to grab onto something, but only took some mist with her and then disappeared.
The sharp screams echoed from all directions, continuously rising and falling.
“…….”
The witches didn’t know what this was, but a sudden inexplicable chill rose in their hearts.
It wasn’t just them, many people saw these bizarre scenes.
From all around, every corner, almost from a hundred different angles, the figure of a woman appeared.
“The old banquet of fools, nothing but empty mysteries?”
The mist surrounding them was the same as the one the Senior Sister and Bailuo had encountered earlier, only the level was much higher.
If the previous mist could be likened to a gas, then now, it was almost no different from a solid; even they could not see through it clearly for a while.
“Master Level illusion technique.”
“I can’t see clearly either.”
Senior sister said, “It’ll take at least 1 minute to analyze this ability and then decode it.”
“Sherri sees very clearly though.”
However, Sherri indicated she wasn’t affected, “There are lots of really ugly big guys outside, getting closer.”
“Ah!!!”
Suddenly, Kristin screamed, pointing at Sherri, “The horse, the horse is speaking!”
Kristin’s mount was an Immortal Hawk, but the Immortal Hawk couldn’t speak.
To be exact, Kristin had never seen a speaking animal in her life. It was inconceivable.
“…”
Sherri glanced at Kristin as if she were looking at a simpleton and continued, “The one on the east side looks like a huge lobster, very colorful.”
“The one in the south has a large body, like a hermit crab, but it’s too far away, Sherri can’t see it very clearly.”
“There are also ones on the west and north sides. The west has a very large squid,” Sherri said, “The north, it looks like a snail, all slimy green with two erect eyes, so disgusting.”
“…”
“Hey, dumbass, can you explain what’s going on?”
“Are you talking to me?”
“Yeah, who else here is a dumbass but you?”
“I am not a dumbass!”
“But no one else here is called a dumbass.”
“My name is Kristin, not dumbass,” Kristin said, “And are you insulting me? You seem to have been baiting me into talking from the start, haven’t you!”
Kristin: What’s with this person, really treating me like an intelligence extractor?
Kristin: I fell for the bait before, that’s your cunning, but this time, don’t even think about getting any information from me!
Kristin: I will never be a traitor again!!
[Sigurian gives Kristin a thumbs-up]
However, it wasn’t long before Bailuo had cajoled the identities of these sea monsters out of Kristin.
“The squid is probably Ni Chu Great King, he’s Sigurian’s first mate, very formidable.”
Kristin looked at the Holy Sword strapped on the neck of the Immortal Hawk, then at the Immortal Hawk’s weeping expression, as if it would burst into tears any second.
Helpless as it was, reality was stronger than will.
Immortal Hawk: Master save me~~
Kristin: Your Majesty, Your Majesty, can we put the sword down first?
“Under the sea, they must have laid Eight-Headed Rocky Sand Silkworms, and it’s likely that the Mi Hai Warrior Monks have come too, perhaps flying above us.”
“The Silver Thread Silk Worm is the sneakiest, be careful not to let it parasitize you.”
“There’s also the Slow Rotten Bone Reed. That woman likes to control others.”
“The Seaweed Branch Sea Leaf Dragon is very strong too, extraordinary. One-on-one, I’m only evenly matched with her.”
“The Green-Eye Slug and the Astonishing Giant Frog Elder, one has Clairvoyance, and the other has Acute Hearing; the former’s ability is extremely disgusting, and the latter is unbearably noisy.”
“The Mi Hai Warrior Monk you spoke of, that colorful giant lobster, besides that, the Putrid Evil Shark and the Sweetheart Sea Mixie on the white horse weren’t mentioned, but I think they’re definitely lurking around, ready to ambush you.”
“Oh right, that hermit crab is called the Sea Mirage Red Crab; it’s not a sea monster, but a sea demon, very, very, very powerful.”
“…”
Sigurian: Ahh!! Oh God, please take this idiotic woman away!!!
How the hell are we supposed to fight this?
How the fuck are we supposed to fight this?
I just finished setting up, and you stab me in the back with justice, and with a combo, an eight-strike combo!!
Sigurian really wants to die, really wants to die….
“What about those unclothed women, what troop type are they? You didn’t mention them.”
Bailuo and her senior sister perceived it and found that although it possessed Miracle Power, it was very weak.
“This…”
This time, even Kristin had no idea, she seemed to have never seen such a troop type under Sigurian’s command: “I don’t know, I really don’t know.”
“But!”
Kristin said, “I should know. If it’s a commonly used troop type by Sigurian, I would definitely know.”
After all, having interacted with him for so many years, how could Kristin not understand Sigurian’s tactics and troop arrangements?
But these strange naked women, Kristin had really never seen them before.
However…
“If, if even I don’t know,” Kristin considered a possibility: “The Lord of the Deep Sea, it’s very likely a Lord of the Deep Sea level Miracle Troop Type.”
The Lord of the Deep Sea, that is, Master.
Technically, due to the Holy Covenant, Sigurian was not allowed to deploy troops of Master Level and above in the army.
But there’s always a workaround to a policy.
If it’s just one, and it’s a Miracle Troop Type that has just broken through the Master Level, then it’s actually no big deal.
Like Sigurian’s Sea Mirage Red Crab, that was how he had brought it out.
However, the situation is different now.
With both Bailuo and the senior sister, two kings, openly appearing on the battlefield, then according to the rules of the Holy Covenant, as the invaded party, Sigurian could use all his strength to counterattack.
“Boom!”
Bailuo wanted to ask more questions, but the vibration from a distance was approaching the Barrier with a mighty momentum.
The air was compressed, creating an extreme sonic boom.
The speed of this sonic boom was very fast, and in just a few breaths, it had already crossed thousands of kilometers and continued to rush towards the Barrier of Radiant Light without losing any momentum.
“Roar!”
An indescribable force hit the eastern side of the Barrier of Radiant Light.
In an instant, ripples spread out from the impact point towards all directions of the Barrier.
“Thud! Thud!”
Again, two sounds, and this time, they even made the Barrier of Radiant Light slightly concave.
Although it rebounded quickly, the keen-eyed People of Yatun still noticed this phenomenon.
Mi Hai Warrior Monks, with astonishing strength, struck the air to produce a huge sonic boom punch that could cross kilometers and shatter a city wall.
“What terrifying strength.”
Jiera’s expression was grave: “To launch such an attack, could it be…?”
Heroic Level!
Jiera did not know the situation on the other side. She tightened her grip on her Belated Arrow, eager to measure herself against an enemy of Heroic Level.
She couldn’t help it, the Transcendent and the Extraordinary were barely a challenge for her anymore.
As for the Fish Monsters and Sea Beasts she had previously killed, such cannon fodder was simply uninteresting.
Only the strong could make Jiera’s blood boil!
“She’s not lying.”
The senior sister’s expression was unchanged, still calm: “These attacks, they must be at least of Heroic Level to be launched.”
Unfortunately, a single Heroic Level, even if it exhausted all its power, would not be enough to disturb the stability of the Barrier, only continuously depleting Isefia’s Miracle Power.
But comparing Miracle Power with Crown Position is just seeking death.
The senior sister would recover infinitely, while the other side would only exhaust its Miracle Power, then become weaker than even the Transcendent, or even the Extraordinary.
“Roarrr!”
The sea was trembling, and the ice layer was cracking rapidly.
“Bang bang bang bang…”
And in the midst of the bluish mist, from one, two, three, four, a total of eight tentacles full of suckers shot up from eight different directions, then clung tightly to the Barrier.
“These are the tentacles of Ni Chu Great King! He’s launching an attack!”
“Zzzzzzt.”
No sooner had Kristin finished speaking than endless thunder burst forth from the tentacles, bringing pressure once more to the Barrier of Radiant Light with a large amount of destructive thunder.
“Glala.”
“Not good!”
Gonnia, who was floating in the air, noticed that the water level where the Barrier was positioned suddenly dropped a notch: “It’s trying to drag us down to the seabed!!”
“Chop it off.”
The senior sister summoned The Four Kings Sacred Sword.
Meanwhile, Alaya was already brandishing her Eastern Truth Sword at the closest tentacle.
“Whoo~~”
The sword qi crossed several hundred meters and sliced through one of the tentacles.
The tentacle was severed, and accompanied by thunder, it fell into the sea, creating sky-high waves.
“Well done, Alaya.”
The senior sister subsequently swung her sword repeatedly, and the other seven thunderous tentacles also broke apart, her movements far more effortless than Alaya’s.
“Crack crack crack.”
“Is this time an attack from below the Barrier?”
The senior sister sensed something at the bottom of the sea, right below the Barrier of Radiant Light, continually attacking that area.
“This must be the Eight-Headed Rocky Sand Silkworm, right?
The senior sister: “But what kind of creature is this? What an odd distribution of body shape.”
Long and numerous, resembling tentacles yet covered with sharp centipede-like legs.
Its speed was so fast that in almost 0.1 seconds, it had already completed charging and then rapidly aimed at a particular area for almost uninterrupted swift strikes.
Unfortunately, it underestimated the senior sister’s Power of Avalon.
Saintly Aura itself was the most suitable power for defense, and it was personally released by the senior sister. Saying that these two layers of defensive barriers were “impervious to anything less than Master Level” wasn’t an overstatement at all.
“Let me take the initiative.”
Now that the situation was clear, there was nothing more to say; it was time to proactively attack and eliminate any threats first.
The fight had been going on for a while, and the senior sister was feeling a bit itchy to join in.
Among the forces present, the senior sister was the strongest. When it came to external output, two or three Bailuos couldn’t compare to her alone.
“Leave it all to me.”
“Are you being that assertive?”
“A mere bunch of Heroic Level,” the senior sister slowly drew The Four Kings Sacred Sword: “One is more than enough!”
