Wizard: Stronger through Marriage - Chapter 960 - 435: Three Key Nodes (Part 2)
David and Aria understood that only by destroying this Flame Heart could they completely destroy the “Abyssal Furnace”.
So they devised a bold plan.
David used his speed and agility to attract the enemies’ attention and create chaos, while Aria took the opportunity to approach the Flame Heart and launch an attack.
The plan proceeded exceptionally smoothly.
David darted among the enemies, leaping and striking, successfully creating turmoil.
Meanwhile, Aria took the opportunity to get close to the Flame Heart and swung her longsword to deliver a fatal blow.
With a loud noise and a dazzling flash of light, the core of the “Abyssal Furnace” was completely destroyed.
The interior of the cave was plunged into chaos and darkness.
The soldiers of the Eternal Night Council were panicking and fleeing in all directions, while David and Aria took the chance to withdraw from this dangerous place.
At the same time, Lianna set out on her journey toward the “Pale Throne”.
She traveled alone through the forests and plains of the Bright World, facing countless unknowns and dangers.
However, she did not shrink back or fear but walked forward resolutely.
She knew the difficulty of this mission, but she also understood that only by completing it could she dismantle the conspiracy of the Eternal Night Council and the Light Faction traitors.
Finally, she arrived in front of the palace of the “Pale Throne”.
This was an ancient and magnificent building, with walls carved with various mysterious patterns and symbols.
But now it was occupied by the traitors of the Light Faction, becoming a place full of conspiracy and crime.
Lianna took a deep breath, then resolutely pushed open the door of the palace.
Inside the door was a spacious hall, with a massive throne placed in the center. Upon the throne sat a man in a luxurious robe, wearing a cold smile—the leader of the Light Faction traitors.
Lianna did not hesitate; she walked directly towards the throne and faced the traitor leader.
She spoke with firm eyes and a calm tone: “Your conspiracy has been exposed, surrender now!”
However, the traitor leader laughed heartily and said, “Do you think you can stop me? Too naive! I have acquired enough power to destroy the entire world!”
Lianna ignored his mockery and continued, “No matter how powerful you are, it cannot change the fact that justice will eventually triumph over evil!”
After saying this, she drew the longsword from her waist and prepared for a direct confrontation with the traitor leader.
However, the traitor leader did not personally attack but instead waved his hand, signaling his subordinates to step forward and attack Lianna.
Lianna successfully repelled multiple attacks from the traitor’s subordinates using her outstanding combat skills and steadfast will.
Yet, she knew this was not a solution; she had to quickly find a way to defeat the traitor leader.
Through observation and contemplation, she noticed that although the traitor leader was seated on the throne, he seemed somewhat unnatural.
She speculated that he might be subject to some kind of restriction or bondage, unable to move freely or unleash his full power.
Thus, she devised a bold plan.
She used her speed and flexibility to move around the palace, creating chaos to distract the traitor’s subordinates.
At the same time, she continuously monitored the traitor leader’s movements, searching for an opportunity to defeat him.
Finally, amidst a chaos, she found an opportunity.
She swiftly dashed towards the throne while the traitor’s subordinates were unalert and swung her longsword to deliver a fatal blow to the traitor leader.
However, at that very moment, the traitor leader suddenly vanished!
It turned out he was merely an illusion!
The real traitor leader was already hiding in the shadows, ready to deal a fatal blow to Lianna!
Lianna was startled, but she didn’t panic.
Using her keen intuition and speed of reaction, she successfully dodged the traitor leader’s sneak attack and struck back with her sword.
Although this sword did not hit the traitor leader directly, it successfully infuriated him.
He stepped out from the shadows and revealed his true face—a fierce-looking man emanating an evil aura.
He glared at Lianna and said, “How dare you wound me! I’ll make you pay the price!”
After saying this, he swung the magic staff in his hand and launched a powerful magic attack at Lianna.
Lianna relied on her excellent defense techniques and resolute will to successfully withstand his attack and prepared to counter-attack.
However, at this moment, the palace suddenly underwent a violent tremor!
It turned out news had arrived from Nova’s side—the Shadow Devouring Race commandos had already broken through their defenses and were pressing toward their direction!
Lianna’s heart tightened; she knew she had to quickly defeat the traitor leader and go to support Nova and the others.
Therefore, she focused her mind and launched a fierce assault on the traitor leader with full force.
After a fierce battle, Lianna finally used her outstanding skill and steadfast will to defeat the traitor leader and destroy his command system.
However, she also knew this was merely a temporary victory; the real challenge was still ahead of them.
Meanwhile, as Lianna was directly confronting the traitor leader, Nova was leading the remnants of the Star Pupil Race facing unprecedented challenges at the “Eye of Void”.
The Shadow Devouring Race commandos surged forward like a tide, possessing vast numbers and formidable strength, bringing immense pressure to Nova and the others.
Nova was well aware of the difficulty of this mission. She knew that if they were even slightly negligent, the Shadow Devouring Race commandos might break through their defenses and invade the Bright World.
Therefore, she must exert herself fully and hold the line until Lianna and David completed their mission and came to their aid.
She commanded the remnants of the Star Pupil Race to resist tenaciously.
They utilized the terrain and cover to conceal themselves and fire, continually causing trouble and losses for the Shadow Devouring Race commandos.
At the same time, she constantly monitored the dynamics of the battlefield, adjusting tactics and deployments to respond to changes from the enemy.
However, the Shadow Devouring Race commandos were indeed very powerful.
Not only were they numerous, but they were also well-coordinated and tactically flexible, causing significant difficulties for Nova and the others.
During the battle, Nova and the remnants of the Star Pupil Race made enormous sacrifices, many brave warriors fell on the battlefield.
Yet, Nova did not yield or retreat.
She continued to boost morale, commanding the battle, and was always ready to meet new challenges.
She knew that as long as they held fast, there was a possibility of waiting for Lianna and David’s support and ultimately achieving victory.
Finally, during an intense battle, Nova spotted a familiar figure—Lianna!
She had successfully defeated the traitor leader and came to support them!
Nova’s heart was filled with joy; she immediately signaled to Lianna and informed her of the current situation.
Upon receiving the signal, Lianna promptly led the support troops to the battlefield and joined forces with Nova and the others.
With the addition of Lianna and the support troops, the pressure on Nova and the others was significantly eased.
They began to organize effective counter-attacks, gradually regaining the initiative on the battlefield.
Though the Shadow Devouring Race commandos stubbornly resisted, they could no longer change their fate of failure.
After a fierce battle, Nova and Lianna finally led the troops to thoroughly defeat the Shadow Devouring Race commandos and secured the “Eye of Void,” a key point.
However, they also paid a huge price, many brave warriors fell forever on the battlefield.
After the battle, Nova and Lianna stood silently on the battlefield, mourning the sacrificed warriors.
They knew these warriors had sacrificed for justice and peace, and their spirit would forever encourage future generations to advance.
Simultaneously, they understood this victory was only temporary; the true challenge awaited them yet.
They must continue to strive and unite in order to completely dismantle the conspiracy of the Eternal Night Council and the Light Faction traitors, and safeguard the peace and safety of the two worlds.
As the “Abyssal Furnace,” “Pale Throne,” and “Eye of Void,” the three crucial points were successively destroyed, the conspiracy of the Eternal Night Council and the Light Faction traitors were also entirely exposed.
Their main forces were defeated, command systems destroyed, and invasion plans failed.
The whole Dark World and Bright World welcomed the dawn of victory.
