The Arch-Cardinal floated in the distant sky as he laughed ruthlessly and cruelly.
Eighty red skeleton soldiers held bone blades in their hands and were dressed in armor. The moment they appeared, they charged at Shi Xiaobai. The ordinary skeleton soldier that was trembling seemed to have found an organization and became brave and fearless. A fierce battle was about to break out at any moment.
When Xiao Xiao saw this scene, she was somewhat nervous and puzzled. She could not understand the Arch-Cardinal's actions. If the Undead Summoning did not have the restrictions she mentioned, why didn't he directly summon the undead army and grind them to the ground?
Time should be extremely precious to the Arch-Cardinal.
The Church of Virtuality's terrorist activities were typically carried out in the real world. The virtual world was just a place for them to "look for talents". This was because once a parishioner of the Church of Virtuality did anything big in the virtual world, the various data that was linked to the World Divine Realm would expose their hiding spots in the real world. This was nearly fatal to a terrorist that was hiding in the dark.
The existence of the Church of Virtuality had once caused the virtual competition industry to decline. However, the various countries did not harden their hearts to ban the virtual competition industry. Firstly, it was because of the reliance on technology, and secondly, the damage the Church of Virtuality caused in the virtual world was nothing compared to the calamity fiends and astral beasts.
If every parishioner of the Church of Virtuality could be like the Arch-Cardinal, invading the virtual world without any scruples, or even paralyzing the virtual system, directly causing the death of players, then what reason would there be for the virtual competition industry to exist?
The Arch-Cardinal must have paid a great price and taken great risks to achieve his present situation. But even so, he still had the restriction of not being able to attack in this world.
Hence, to the Arch-Cardinal, the most important thing was time. In order to reduce the risk of exposing his location, he should have ended the battle quickly. Why did he use wave after wave of attacks in a gradual manner?
"Time!"
Xiao Xiao's eyes lit up slightly. "Different levels of the Undead Summoning require different casting times!"
Xiao Xiao finally understood why the Arch-Cardinal would use a gradual method of attack. There was no other reason — Shi Xiaobai was killing too quickly. Furthermore, the words "there's more" after he finished killing was too sarcastic!
The Arch-Cardinal could not tolerate such humiliation, so he gave up on casting spells for a long period of time. After Shi Xiaobai finished a wave of attacks, he would immediately cast the Undead Summoning. Hence, although the Undead Summoning was strengthened every time, it was not by much!
Xiao Xiao found it funny, but she immediately became alert.
"Once the clearing speed slows down, the next wave of undead summoning will be even stronger."
This realization gave Xiao Xiao a fright. At this moment, Shi Xiaobai was engaged in battle with the eighty red skeleton soldiers. If nothing unexpected happened, the next wave would be a hundred and sixty, but once he slowed down due to exhaustion, the next wave might be 320.
They were like a boat sailing against the current!
It seemed like she couldn't let the little pervert paddle alone. She had to paddle as well!
With this thought in mind, Xiao Xiao immediately raised her crystal bow, transformed her psionic energy into an arrow, and shot it!
Bam!
Xiao Xiao's eyes couldn't help but widen. The arrow had hit the outermost red skeleton soldiers, but it had only broken a few bones!
Although she had used the most ordinary arrow technique in order to conserve her psionic power, the defense of the red skeleton soldiers had exceeded her expectations. Compared to the ordinary skeleton soldiers from before, their defense was more than a level higher.
Xiao Xiao turned her head to look at Shi Xiaobai, who was swimming through the red skeleton soldiers, and was immediately dumbfounded. Although he had spent a lot of time dodging due to being heavily surrounded, the speed at which Shi Xiaobai killed the skeleton soldiers did not slow down at all. The red skeleton soldiers were as weak as tofu under his knife, shattering upon contact.
I heard that this knife technique is called Pig Slaughtering Knife?
What a fucking Pig Slaughtering Knife!
For the first time, Xiao Xiao felt that her intelligence was lacking. She gritted her teeth and raised her crystal bow to shoot another arrow. This time, she used "Crimson Netherworld" with her psionic energy!
"Boom!"
With an explosion, a large number of skeleton soldiers were reduced to dust.
A smile suffused across Xiao Xiao's lips as she regained a bit of confidence. However, her tiny face immediately frowned. In order to create a psionic arrow that could withstand "Crimson Netherworld", she had expended a considerable amount of psionic power. According to this expenditure, her current psionic power reserves probably could not shoot too many "Crimson Netherworld" arrows.
But …
"Crimson Netherworld!"
Xiao Xiao gritted her teeth and once again used Crimson Netherworld. She felt the loss of psionic power in her body as her heart ached.
"Boom!"
Another group of skeleton soldiers was reduced to dust by this arrow.
With the combined efforts of Shi Xiaobai's Pig Slaughtering Knife and her Crimson Netherworld, the wave of skeleton soldiers was quickly cleared. The Arch-Cardinal seemed to be stunned as he did not move in a daze.
A sly smile suffused across Xiao Xiao's lips as she mocked the Arch-Cardinal with an elongated voice, "What about ~ more ~?"
"Courting death!"
The Arch-Cardinal immediately laughed angrily. With another wave of his hand, the door of darkness appeared once again. Following that, the red skeleton soldiers walked out with surging killing intent.
Xiao Xiao scanned it and immediately laughed. There were indeed only eighty red skeleton soldiers in this wave! Her guess was correct. The longer the Arch-Cardinal's summoning spell was cast, the more powerful the undead summoning spell would be!
"Since you are such an Archbishop, don't blame me for using a little scheme."
Xiao Xiao felt that the Arch-Cardinal was extremely stupid. All he needed to do was endure and use a big move to drown them in a sea of skeletons to end the battle, but he had to …
Xiao Xiao suddenly felt lucky. Even though she pretended to be calm on the surface, she had been pampered from a young age. As a genius, the path she took was the most stable academic path. As such, she did not encounter too many dangers. She had only encountered such life-threatening danger once when she was very young.
She was somewhat flustered at the beginning when she suddenly encountered the Arch-Cardinal. After knowing that the virtual system had been crippled, she even felt a sense of despair.
But …
Xiao Xiao stared intently at the youth who was charging in and out of the skeleton soldiers. He was as beautiful as a dancer, but he was as cold as Death. He was wearing a comical clown costume and was using comical Crab Steps. He was using a knife technique known as the Pig Slaughtering Knife, but it gradually calmed her flustered heart.
This was the most handsome clown she had ever seen.
"We will be saved."
Xiao Xiao said in her heart as a smile suffused under her veil. Arrow after arrow of the Crimson Netherworld was shot out.
"As long as we stall for enough time, my grandfather will definitely think of a way to save us. As long as we hold on a little longer, we will be able to leave this world that has turned reality upside down."
She opened her mouth, but no sound came out.
"When the time comes, I want to get to know you."
.....
The last skeleton soldier was reduced to a pile of bones under the Pig Slaughtering Knife. This wave of eighty skeleton soldiers was completely annihilated once again.
Xiao Xiao opened her mouth to continue mocking him, but she saw the Arch-Cardinal, who was floating in mid-air a distance away, slowly rise up. He floated a few hundred meters above the ground. He did not continue using his undead summoning spell, and instead, he fell silent like a statue.
Suddenly, a blob of black light bloomed from the Arch-Cardinal's hands.
An ink-black airflow suddenly shot out from the ground as it surged into the sky, gathering into the red robe. A gloomy whistling sound resounded in the sky, as though it was the roar of a ferocious ghost.
Shi Xiaobai immediately shouted, "Be careful, the little pig is about to unleash his ultimate move!"
Xiao Xiao: "…"
