Chapter 2263 - 838: Lansendel’s Guilty Conscience

’Whoosh~ Bang!’

Suddenly, numerous spells simultaneously rushed towards the Female Priest standing on the high ground, abruptly breaking the brief tranquility inside.

However, the Magicians’ ambush had no effect at all. The ’Old Age Striking King’ directly flew through the area where spells appeared densest, shielding themselves, and landed on the oil lamp mounted on the opposite wall.

The spell markings on the almost destroyed half-wall clearly showed how wise the Female Priest’s choice was.

If she had flown through the areas that appeared to have a slight gap on both sides, her shield would have been shattered, and she might have even suffered some injury herself.

The black scorch marks proved that these Seventh Circle Warlocks were indeed formidable... all targeting the soul.

If burned, even though the ’Old Age Striking King’s’ self-repair ability is strong, her repair speed would undoubtedly be affected.

This battle method is extremely cunning, and there must have been a command from someone capable of suppressing everyone to make such a deployment.

However, these are tactics the Undead Tribe has grown bored of... the spells that can be seen are actually the best spells.

When those spells flew towards her, the ’Old Age Striking King’ ensured she couldn’t identify these seemingly elusive grey-black aura spells around the edges, realizing what type they belonged to... so she definitely wouldn’t charge in.

Better to take a direct blow than to turn and get bitten by a snake, this was already ingrained in her combat principles... who knows what type of venom that snake has!

The ’Old Age Striking King’ slightly turned her head, observing the Seventh Circle Warlocks below... she suspected an Eighth Circle was mixed in among them.

How interesting, clearly there should be a very noticeable distinction between Eighth and Seventh Circle; it was her first time seeing someone hide these traces so perfectly!

But, there’s no need to worry too much about this.

The ’Old Age Striking King’s’ lips, as fresh as petals, formed a sharp line... as long as she beats them all half to death, that person would definitely be revealed!

Heh, the reason Eighth Circle Mana appears several times more than Seventh is because when casting, they’re always absorbing external magical energy.

To disguise as Seventh Circle, he would have to completely switch this natural breathing... however, being able to disguise so successfully that even their Undead Tribe’s sensing system couldn’t detect it, this was the first time the ’Old Age Striking King’ had witnessed it.

Of course, that’s speaking from a mortal’s perspective.

Those at Legendary Level, the Archmages, and Deities find it even easier to disguise themselves... but, Eighth Circle, even Ninth Circle, cannot quite do this.

After all, this is the beginning of Mages communicating and merging with the World Rules, cutting off midway harms them.

Switching breath like this, how could it be switched segment by segment!

When cut off, the opposite naturally slips away... then one must find a ’breath’ willing to communicate again.

So, seeing someone able to lock Eighth and Ninth Ring Mages to the Seventh Circle level, it was a first for even the knowledgeable ’Old Age Striking King’.

She observed the enemies below with great interest... Edna would definitely be very interested in these guys.

Such a fresh type!

The ’Old Age Striking King’ found another lamp holder to clasp onto and behaved leisurely.

But, her enemies seemed a bit chaotic... even though they had done a very thorough battle preparation.

This Priestess who liked to leap around, killing with speed and power, clearly had high fire resistance.

After all, the lamp seat she was perched on wasn’t extinguished.

So, earlier on, to force this woman to the edges, they had released ice damage spells in the central region deliberately.

Those who have high physical resistance and fire resistance generally have slightly weaker ice resistance... even Deities have such weaknesses more or less.

Though for mortals, these Deities’ weakest points are just unreachable peaks for them.

Even though they couldn’t understand the existence of the Undead Tribe, they could tell from the overly active elemental reactions of these guys that these otherworldly visitors’ bodies clearly lean towards elements.

Which means, they would definitely be more affected by the natural conflicts between elements.

Besides, although the ’Old Age Striking King’s’ magic resistance was very high, if her ice resistance was not the most secure resistance she had, wouldn’t most people try to avoid exposing their weaknesses?

That’s why they were so actively obeying this lord’s secret orders... whether they could complete the boss’s tasks aside, at least their lives could be saved!

Who knows why this female priest is so different!

The warlocks looked at each other... since they excelled in shadow-type spells, naturally their ice magic attack power would be slightly higher.

Shadow and cold complement each other naturally.

They could actually estimate how much total damage there was from those layers of ice spells.

But even so, the shield on that Female Priest still maintained its teetering state... how could they continue fighting?

Even the weakest ice series, she can still withstand it!

There were Seventh Circle spells among them just now.

The ’Old Age Striking King’ wasn’t completely worry-free either.

She was actually trying very hard to lower her presence.

For instance, this shield on her is a Mana Shield, not targeting any single type of defense... of course, her overall spell resistance is already pretty high, likely even higher than the specific shields used by mages at the same level.

But, why use ice magic on her?

She’s burning herself now!

-----------------

"Shouldn’t the elder’s ice resistance be the highest? The shadow resistance should be similar, right?" asked Snow Cloud Peak, unable to hold back.

"Of course! Her white dragon is at the ancient dragon level!" Perfect Bald spread his hands, "Ice, light, shadow, and even physical resistance, she is almost 10 points higher than everyone else!

That’s a level 10 boost~

This bunch really knows how to find the key points.

So what now?

Surely, we can’t let the elder slap themselves, right?"

"No worries, this isn’t something we can manage anyway." Snow Cloud Peak pondered for a while and then said, "Moreover, the more outstanding the elder’s performance, the greater their losses, making them less willing to give up on her.

It seemed the plan would end quickly, but nobody thought her strength alone would cause prolonged exhaustion!

Let the elder endure slowly... now it’s all about who can hold out till the end.

The elder, if nothing else, certainly possesses strong willpower."

"If Zhu Meili or Road Eunuch were standing there, you probably wouldn’t feel so conflicted, right?" said Magic Sword, pushing away his tablet and lazily stretching his waist, "The data collection is finally almost done. Indeed, the seventh circle data is the most stable and trustworthy.

The randomness of the others is too high."

Snow Cloud Peak sighed helplessly, "The elder’s acting is the most unpredictable.

Otherwise, why would we be so tired?

She can cause problems whether true or false, at worst it needs to be seventy percent true.

The hidden fellow is clearly sly and timid; if he weren’t so greedy, he wouldn’t be playing with the elder until now!

Ha, theoretically, dealing with half-baked types who want everything should be easy.

Too bad, the elder’s acting is too fake. Relying on acting alone would only make him flee quickly.

Tsk ~ Anyone who plays dirty knows how to escape best.

No matter how arrogant someone is, a thief is always a thief; their nature hardly changes."

"You know, in this place, who is the best at manipulating darkness, right?" Perfect Bald stared at Snow Cloud Peak with an incredulous look, as if looking at a madman, and asked.

"Is Shaer escaping? That’s called going home." Snow Cloud Peak impatiently waved his hand, "Don’t stir things up there, the elder sister-in-law of our family is wise!"

-----------------

Lansendel looked back with a heavy heart.

But this time, he surprisingly held back!

Hill was genuinely happy for him... this was the first time he didn’t reveal all his insidious intentions!

Although Shaer can surely see through what he’s thinking, not saying it is the biggest victory.

His obedient behavior is enough for Shaer to control her emotions even if she’s not happy inside.

Of course, Shaer might not be as displeased as assumed.

Given Snow Cloud Peak’s blunt display, most of the undead tribe probably respectfully refers to her as ’elder sister-in-law’ when mentioning her.

Shaer will definitely carefully investigate what the term ’elder sister-in-law’ represents in the undead world and accept it calmly.

Clearly, her title will, in the future, spread through the multiverse following the footsteps of the undead tribe... Shaer is of a highly possessive nature, and she would surely enjoy seeing William named under her.

Although on the surface, she wore the crown given by William, in the multiverse, the imprint of William will visibly bear her name.

This fact is understood by all, and William certainly knows it even better.

Yet, he never stopped the undead tribe from using such a term, even though it means he hides beneath Shaer.

The one thing Hill has always liked about William is his very standard warrior mentality.

For him, it is only about whether something fits or not, and love; he never thinks about gender when considering these issues.

Thus, William never feels it’s a problem for his woman to be more powerful and famous than him.

He certainly wouldn’t wish for Shaer to pack up and go home to cook for him... Great, although it started off like a Long Aotian story, its course is that of ordinary folks.

-----------------

Shaer stared intently at Lansendel... she wouldn’t be like Little Hill, genuinely believing this fearsome peacock actually understands what restraint is.

This guy must have been pondering other matters earlier, which is why he turned around absentmindedly when hearing the undead tribe mention her name!

Once confirmed the enemy is related to Igweville, his reactions have been quite abnormal.

Shaer doesn’t think Lansendel would have any connection with Igweville, but this guy undoubtedly did something related to that woman just now!
