A little girl suddenly appeared and intercepted the arcane ball of light in the air.
Wang Zhong felt his soul tremble, and he felt a little sad. Alice, who was powerful enough to defend against Aiolos in the secret realm, was reduced to a Soul Guard in his hands. She was reduced to a Soul Guard, and he could only use one move against her. It was also because the opponents he had encountered were too strong. Alice, who had recovered after so many days, was only hit once. However, he felt that her injuries were lighter than when she fought against a Sword Saint. It seemed that the Warlock Saint didn't want to kill him, so he must have held back in his attack just now.
Wang Zhong didn't hesitate or think about anything else. He just wanted to run. He wanted to run with all his strength!
Mu Zi's footsteps were strange. It was the same feeling he had when he was walking on the edge of life and death in the Headless Canyon. He walked calmly and slowly, but his speed was extremely fast.
Wang Zhong instantly activated his Three Major Circuits at the same time: Zoom Shadow Circuit, Domination Constitution Circuit, and Agility Circuit! His entire body seemed to have been reborn in an instant, and his speed soared. When he rushed forward, he was like a flying missile, rumbling heavily and full of explosive power.
The Warlock Saint was slightly stunned by their instantaneous acceleration. He had seen people who could run fast, but he had never seen rookies who could run so fast. In the blink of an eye, they had already rushed out of his attack range.
Ah … The corners of Sauron's mouth curled up slightly. Although flying in the air looked cool, his speed was not that terrifying. It was not even comparable to the full speed of a Sword Saint on the ground. At this time, the two people in front of him were as fast as the wind. Sauron was a little annoyed to find that he couldn't catch up with them. However, it was obviously impossible for the other party to get rid of him. The two of them always maintained a distance of about a hundred meters. The power and realm of a Warlock Saint was much higher than that of a Sword Saint, but he was not good at speed and physical strength.
Pillars of fire rose from the ground. Although the Warlock Saint did not release his large-scale killing moves, he continued to use small tricks. Although the two of them repeatedly dodged the hot pillars of fire, the high temperature was still burning them, making Mu Zi's mouth dry. The other party was not in a hurry. Even if he couldn't catch up with them for a while, he still had many ways to toy with these two mice.
Wang Zhong, on the other hand, was still alright. He put on a good show and pretended to be as unbearable as Mu Zi. However, his fire resistance was sufficiently high. Without the other party knowing, the might of the fire pillars wasn't considered strong, as though they were afraid of killing Wang Zhong along the way.
"We can't go on like this. Mu Zi, you can't hold on anymore. Split up with me and meet up with Napier and the others first."
"You won't be able to escape alone." Mu Zi gritted her teeth. "I have a way!"
The Soul Power in his entire body suddenly surged, and he extended his hand into the Life and Death Coffin. A ball of gray fog instantly seeped out from the Life and Death Coffin, enveloping the surroundings and obstructing his vision.
"Insignificant skill!" Sauron was dismissive. It seemed that the two mice were desperate. Not to mention that his divine sense could cover the surroundings at any time and see through the other party's invisibility, even if it was this fog, how difficult would it be to break through it?
A few flames suddenly exploded in the fog. The fire rushed out and dispersed the hazy fog in an instant. However, the two people who were supposed to be in the fog had disappeared.
Not only did they disappear from his line of sight, but they also disappeared from Sauron's divine sense at the same time, causing Sauron to be slightly stunned. He had seen the other party's invisibility ability before. Although it was very exquisite, it was only at the level of a Heroic Soul. Previously, he had seen through it at a glance, but suddenly …
Sauron suddenly lowered his flying altitude, and his divine sense enveloped the surrounding area with a radius of a thousand meters. However, he still couldn't find anything. It was as if the other party had really disappeared without a trace.
At that moment, Mu Zi and Wang Zhong carried the Life and Death Coffin and sank dozens of meters into the ground. They had seen some magical artifacts, but they had never seen something like the Life and Death Coffin. At that moment, the hard ground seemed to have turned into a pool of water and instantly submerged the two of them.
The two people underground did not even dare to breathe loudly. Back then, Mu Zi had relied on this unique skill to resist the pursuit of the Heavenly Souls, but they didn't know if this skill would be useful here. Now, they could only take a gamble. However, this kind of invisibility could not last for long. If the other party continued to wait here, they would still be finished.
At that moment, in the forest in the distance, there seemed to be something calling out. The Warlock Saint's gaze became piercingly cold. Trying to escape? Too naive!
Obviously, the Warlock Saint did not expect the two of them to stay where they were. After the Warlock Saint chased after them for a while, Wang Zhong and Mu Zi both let out a long sigh. At this time, they did not dare to stay any longer. However, Wang Zhong and Mu Zi did not run out. Instead, they ran in the direction of the castle.
Sure enough, not long after the two of them ran out, they heard a roar in the sky. The Warlock Saint, who had been misled by a few native birds, had gone crazy. A destructive rain of fire enveloped the world, including the place where Wang Zhong and Mu Zi were just now. The rain of fire continued to destroy the place as the Warlock Saint walked. The ground instantly burned into a sea of fire, and countless surging energy was transmitted and exploded. Even though they were a few miles away, Wang Zhong and Mu Zi could feel the terrifying and brilliant heavenly might. It was as if the entire ground was about to be overturned by him.
The destructive power of the Warlock Saint was too terrifying.
Wang Zhong and Mu Zi returned to the bottom of the moat and hid. Other than the Warlock Saint, no one else could detect them, and the ghost did not like water. This was also a common characteristic of creatures that were half-energy.
… …
There were already members of the Griffin Legion circling in the sky, searching for them. Fortunately, these soldiers were too afraid of the residual power of the Warlock Saint's attack. They only dared to expand the search area after the Warlock Saint chased Wang Zhong and Mu Zi far away. However, this bought time was enough for Hyde and Noraba, who were running at full speed, to escape to a safe area.
At this time, the two of them had returned to the cave. Napier had camouflaged them with some dead branches, and Mu Zi's remaining life and death aura had covered the entrance of the cave. For the time being, they were not worried about being discovered.
Napier, who was inside, had been observing the outside of the Shadow Moon Fortress with the Night Vision telescope. Without Noraba and Hyde saying anything, he knew what had happened. When he saw the terrifying Warlock Saint chasing after Wang Zhong and Mu Zi, Napier felt a chill in his heart.
It was not that he did not trust Wang Zhong and Mu Zi, but that the Warlock Saint was too powerful. Was he really on the same level as a Sword Saint? It felt like he was a god!
Noraba and Hyde both drooped their heads, looking quite depressed.
Originally, Wang Zhong and Mu Zi didn't have to take the risk to rescue them. The mission they received was only to explore the Shadow Moon Fortress, but it was because of their repeated pleas that Wang Zhong and Hyde were put in danger. In the end, they even had to lure the Warlock Saint away in order to cover for them …
The Warlock Saint was a Mizobudapi Warlock Saint, an existence that was even rarer and more powerful than a Sword Saint. He was an existence that could defeat a Great Teacher in a one-on-one fight. This … There was no way to escape at all. Just now, they heard a loud roar coming from the west of the fortress. That destructive energy made them feel despair and fear even from dozens of miles away.
No matter how strong Wang Zhong and Mu Zi were, the possibility of them surviving such an attack was too small.
It was Wang Zhong and Mu Zi's sacrifice that saved them.
Noraba wanted to slap himself in the face. He and Hyde were completely blinded by their desire to save people. The two of them, who knew the Shadow Moon Fortress very well, should have known from the beginning that it was impossible to complete the rescue mission, but they insisted on dragging Wang Zhong and Mu Zi into this mess. He was the one who had harmed them and their saviors.
"I'll go back and take a look!" Hyde felt like he was sitting on pins and needles, especially after the violent energy explosion in the distance. He really couldn't calm down.
"Don't go and die! Wang Zhong and Mu Zi are not ordinary people. They won't die so easily. " Napier was still pretending to be calm. Frankly speaking, he was quite conflicted. On the one hand, he admired Wang Zhong and Mu Zi from the bottom of his heart and had absolute confidence in them. When they encountered a Sword Saint in the Black Boulder Energy Cave, didn't everyone think that Wang Zhong was dead for sure? But not only was he fine, he even brought back the head of a Sword Saint in the end.
But on the other hand, Napier was still worried. After all, it was a Warlock Saint this time. Rumor had it that a Warlock Saint was equivalent to three Sword Saints! Moreover, the people in the Wanderlust Team knew how Wang Zhong killed that Sword Saint. If it weren't for C 'Thun's Stink Bomb, which took away most of the Sword Saint's life, even Wang Zhong wouldn't have succeeded. Such good luck didn't come by every time.
However, Noraba was an impatient person. He kept walking back and forth in the narrow space of the cave, rubbing his hands. At this time, he really couldn't bear it anymore. "At least we have to see him if he's alive, and if he's dead, we have to see his corpse. I'll go to the place where the Warlock Saint attacked just now to see the situation. You guys wait for me until midnight. If I'm not back by midnight, and Wang Zhong and the rest don't come back, you guys retreat!"
"I'll go with you!" Hyde also stood up. No matter what, it was better than sitting here alone. He was the one who suggested it, but in the end, not only did he not manage to save Wang Zhong and Mu Zi, but Wang Zhong and Mu Zi were also trapped. He felt very sullen. If he knew this would happen, he wouldn't have listened to Wang Zhong at that time. Even if he and Noraba had to risk their lives to stall the Warlock Saint, as long as they could create a chance for Wang Zhong and Mu Zi to escape, even if they died, it was much better than carrying this guilt for the rest of their lives.
"That's enough, you two!" Napier finally couldn't help but get angry. "Just now, the Warlock Saint continuously released a large-scale arcane spell. What does this mean? It's very likely that he can't locate Wang Zhong and Mu Zi. We can only wait now … It's useless for you guys to go. Instead, you will die. Your lives were exchanged for by Wang Zhong and Mu Zi's sacrifice. They don't belong to you!"
Noraba and Hyde were about to leave the cave, but when they heard this, their expressions turned gloomy.
It was easy to die, but it was truly difficult to live and cherish Wang Zhong and Mu Zi's sacrifice.
"Damn it …" Noraba gritted his teeth, and the veins on his forehead bulged. "Is there something wrong with this damn Warlock Saint's brain … Why didn't he chase after the two of us? The two of us are obviously easier to chase! "
"Haha, is there something wrong with his brain if he doesn't chase after you?" A voice came from the entrance of the cave. The three of them were shocked when they heard it. Were they discovered by the patrolling Octopus people? Just now, everyone was so excited that they didn't pay attention to the situation outside the cave.
