[The first update, today's fourth update. I'm so happy to see the monthly votes, I'm ninth in the categorized category!]
Nicholas' body stiffened. He wanted to go to the palace to help, but he didn't dare. He was a fallen priest. Encountering an angel from the Divine Kingdom, he would be more restrained than an undead. He was a follower and could fight for Salin, but if he went back, he would definitely die.
Nicholas hesitated at the thought of certain death in the battle.
"Su, go back. There's a problem at the palace! Right, put on your armor. This time, if you don't, then you're dead for sure. "Nicholas said to Su at his side.
"Something happened?" Su looked at Nicholas in confusion.
"I can't go back. If I go back, I'll definitely die. Leave this place to me. If that powerful level nine mage appears, I can still fight. If I go back, I won't even have the right to fight. That's an angel from the Divine Kingdom."
Su's face darkened. He knew what it meant for a follower like Nicholas to not go back to help. Salin was in danger, very dangerous. Nicholas, who was level nine, was completely under his control.
Su silently took out the armor that Joey had refined from his leather pouch. In order to strengthen his foundation, he had been unwilling to wear it. Only a Golden Sword Saint could display the absolute power of this armor. The rank of a Silver Sword Saint could only forcefully increase Su's strength. It didn't do much for Su's growth.
Now, Su had no choice but to wear this powerful armor. He had to rush back as soon as possible. Only this armor could give him the ability to fly long distances.
"Su, the divine envoy of the Divine Kingdom, physical attacks are almost useless. You have to …"
"Understood." Su tightened his belt and switched to the longsword Salin had refined for him. He leapt off the city wall from the back. Behind his armor, a pair of metal wings unfolded, carrying a thin layer of golden sword energy. He was like an enormous golden eagle as he flew towards the temporary imperial residence.
Outside Salin's palace, Trish stretched out his hand with difficulty. His fingernails waved, and a silver light shone. He cut the steel wires that bound his legs. Then, he pulled out the two steel needles that were stuck in his leg bones. Finally, he pulled out the arrow that Elena had shot into his thigh.
The arrowhead had been removed from the arrow, leaving only a sharp wooden shaft. Elena's archery skills were so good that the arrow that pierced through Trish's thigh only left a hole. It did not hit any vital parts.
After removing the steel wires and needles, Tracy quickly regained her ability to move without the paralysis from the venom. He lifted his head and saw Elinor running for her life. Behind Eleanor was something that was only half her height. It looked very annoying and had a pair of albino wings.
Even though he hated him, the person chasing after Eleanor was much stronger than him. Trish flapped his wings gloomily. He couldn't even fly if the venom hadn't dissipated.
The angel of the Divine Kingdom pressed forward. He had been summoned, and the Vatican had cut off all means of retreat. The loss of believers was not a big deal, but this time, the Vatican had arranged for a summoner among the ambassadors. This kind of behavior had already caused the Vatican to lose any true allies.
In the future, the envoys of the Tanggulas Empire would not receive the same treatment. Under the influence of religion, the glory of the Tanggulas nobles had been completely stripped away.
The angel of the Divine Kingdom was not a living being, but a weapon of the Divine Kingdom. It had no feelings, let alone pity. The order it had received was to destroy the palace in Daliang City and kill Salin.
It was supposed to head straight for the palace, but as a weapon of war, the level-9 angel of the Divine Kingdom sensed the danger Elinor was in. It had to first kill this dangerous life form, then kill all the living beings in the palace.
The water puppet held Elinor in its arms. The surface of its body was constantly releasing the Water Shield. As a puppet, it was not as proficient as Salin in casting this level-4 defensive spell. Salin's Water Shield had reached the peak of mid-level magic, and he had also added the Shield of Darkness to it. When the Water Shield broke, the Shield of Darkness appeared naturally.
It was a level-7 advanced spell, and the water puppet could not master such a complicated operation.
Even so, the toughness of the Water Shield was beyond the angel's expectations. His lightsaber slashed at the Water Golem's defensive magic, but after the layers of the Water Shield were broken, the lightsaber could not break the Water Golem.
The water puppet felt the elements in its body depleting rapidly, so it took off the crystal ring and put it on Elinor. Then, with a forceful push, Elinor and her Wings of Spirit descended rapidly, while the water puppet turned around and pounced at the angel of the Divine Kingdom.
Elinor abruptly turned back, and saw that the water puppet's body had become transparent. Only its face was still Salin's. The angel's sword of light suddenly blossomed with a dazzling light. In an instant, it slashed out hundreds of times, and the water puppet's body was cut into pieces again and again, becoming thinner and thinner.
Even though she knew that it was a puppet, Elinor still wept, as if it was Salin. She drew an arrow from her quiver and nocked it on Seven Nights' bow. The life force and soul force that she had prepared for the past few months were all injected into the arrow.
The water puppet's body instantly disintegrated, and even its head was shattered. The rich water elements turned into hundreds of streams of water, wrapping around the angel of the Divine Kingdom. Elinor shot out an arrow and pierced through the body of the angel of the Divine Kingdom. This time, the angel of the Divine Kingdom roared angrily.
The Life Arrow could take away the enemy's life. Elinor had used all her strength in this arrow. She had used up one-sixth of the power stored in a quiver. This was already the strongest arrow she could unleash at this level, and it was enough to take away thousands of years of the enemy's life.
The life of an angel of the Divine Kingdom was not long, only three thousand years. The water puppet's crystal finger was not a physical attack, but a skill that Rafael had created to deal with gods. The water puppet's attack had already seriously injured the angel of the Divine Kingdom. However, as long as a weapon like him did not die, its attack power would remain at level nine.
Elinor drew out another arrow and shot it with all her might. This arrow could take away more than five hundred years of the angel's life.
She could not hold back the tears in her eyes. The person who had saved her was not Salin, but just a puppet. One of the wings of the Elven Wings was broken, and it fell to the ground. Elinor twisted her body, just in time to see that the water puppet had turned into a stream of water, completely cut apart by the sword of light.
The translucent angel of the Divine Kingdom rushed towards her like a meteor. The sword of light in the angel's hand was still bright and dazzling, with a murderous and majestic aura.
Elinor shook her head. She was already less than three hundred meters away from the ground. The battle had been so short. The powerful water puppet had been cut into pieces, and she had only fallen more than seven hundred meters.
There was no one to rely on, so she could only rely on herself. Elinor's slender fingers pulled out the edge of the quiver, and the Elven Emperor Arrow was already in her hand.
The movements of the angel of the Divine Kingdom suddenly stopped, and Elinor's face instantly changed from delicate to majestic. It was as if she was the one chasing the enemy in the sky, and not the one falling. Longbow Seven Nights' bowstring trembled, making a loud sound.
Buzz … Boom!
Along with the bowstring, all the elements in the surrounding space trembled. The Elven Emperor Arrow was a skill that commanded the elements, and it was a pure elemental attack.
The three magic towers in the distance released a strong elemental wave at the same time, and the magic defense of Great Liang City was activated. The face of the angel of the Divine Kingdom showed a solemn expression. His longsword continuously slashed forward, like a beginner swordsman who had just learned swordsmanship.
This simple movement caused visible ripples in the air, and the magic that restricted his flying ability was useless. The angel of the Divine Kingdom flapped his wings, and his body became thinner. Below his legs, he was almost completely transparent. His sword of light smashed the tail of the Elven Wings into pieces.
The defensive barrier of the magic towers still slowed his movements by a few vibrations.
Elinor's body fell even faster, and her Elven Wings were completely destroyed. She quickly released a Wind Walking Spell, but it was unable to change the inertia of her falling to the ground.
The power of the sword of the angel of the Divine Kingdom could not be converted. The Level Six Wind Walking Spell could not resist the inertia of a Level Nine expert's attack.
Seeing that Eleanor was in danger, Trish took out a small token and released the Stone Soldier that Salin had given him, regardless of how weak he was. Unless the leading stone soldier was destroyed, the stone soldiers would continuously absorb the power of the earth to revive. Salin finally repaired the leading stone soldier, which was a Warrior's nightmare.
He embedded the rectangular token into the chest of the leading stone soldier, and the stone soldier leader began to release the stone soldiers under him. Trish flapped his wings and flew toward Elinor. His long whip curled towards Elinor's waist. The protruding thorns on the whip retracted, and it became smooth and soft.
Seeing that Elinor was about to escape, the angel of the Divine Kingdom no longer waved the sword of light in his hand. Instead, he raised it above his head and chanted a hurried prayer. A huge phantom formed on the sword of light, and it slashed down toward the ground. This huge phantom contained the power of light, and all the elements were slashed apart by the sword. The phantom went straight for Elinor's back.
In the main hall, Salin and Rex were still in the dark space. This level-eight spell had lasted too long.
Salin was whispering to Rex when he caught a glimpse of the clothes he had thrown outside the Water Pattern Shield. There was a crack on the light green gourd. He was shocked. The water puppet had been defeated! And it was severely injured. Who knew how much time and effort it would take to recover?
"Trish, something has happened to the water puppet!" Salin said as he removed the Water Pattern Shield and went straight for his clothes. The crack on the gourd wasn't big, but water vapor could already be seen rising from within. Only a trace of the pure elements used to create the water puppet was left, and it was curled up in the vapor.
Without hesitation, Salin sent over twenty compressed water droplets stored in his demonic god ring into the gourd. Only then did the crack on the gourd show signs of healing.
