"I — I …"
Princess Summer really didn't know how Theresa could still smile.
Theresa's bravery was a contrast to her weakness. Her hands were shivering, and she could not hold her saber tightly. She was so anxious that she almost burst into tears. "I dare not. I can't do it."
In the meantime, the Demonic Halberd Pig snorted. Two streams of hot air spurted out of its nostrils. Hideous and greedy brilliance beamed out of its red bean-sized eyes again.
It rolled over and stood up.
"Come on. You can do it!"
Theresa encouraged Princess A Xia. "Nobody can protect you forever. Blackjack can't, and neither can I. I will fight side by side with you, but I can't protect you forever. Sister A Xia, summon your courage, pick up your saber, and fight for yourself!"
"No. No. I can't …" Princess A Xia blushed and shook her head hard.
Before she made up her mind, the Demonic Halberd Pig lowered its head and charged at them with the thorns on its back.
"Watch out!"
Theresa strode forward and stood in front of Princess Xia. She raised her saber high, and the edge of the saber vaguely mixed with the aura of lightning and thunder, slashing at the head of the Demonic Halberd Pig brutally as if it could cut through a hurricane!
It was a pity that the head of the Demonic Halberd Pig was the hardest part of its body.
Theresa had not fully grasped her brand-new body yet. Her control of strength was still not perfect, either.
Most importantly of all, the saber in her hand was just a standard weapon used by bounty hunters and mercenaries. Also, it had been used many times and was full of cracks.
It was not a super weapon of the Xing Yao Federation or the Imperium of True Human Beings with cutting-edge technologies such as metal smelting, crystal embedding, and magical equipment manufacturing.
BAM!
The saber collided with the thorns on the head of the Demonic Halberd Pig brutally. Before Theresa's thunderous strength was fully unleashed, the fragile saber could not bear the intense blast and broke into pieces.
There was only the handle of the saber left in Theresa's hand.
Before her strength was unleashed, she had already lost balance. The Demonic Halberd Pig took the opportunity and crashed into her.
Theresa was blown almost thirty meters away like a kite whose string had been cut off, vomiting blood.
"Theresa!"
Princess A Xia was scared. She rushed to her without caring about anything. Seeing the bloodstains on her chest, she cried aloud.
"I, I'm fine."
Theresa gasped for breath. When she lowered her head to look, she noticed that the Demonic Halberd Pig had punctured dozens of holes in her leather armor.
The impact of this monster was really strong.
Fortunately, he was wearing leather armor, and the cushioning at his chest was strong enough. Otherwise, he would have broken a few bones.
"Run!"
Theresa licked the blood from the corner of her mouth and said to Princess Summer.
She was ready to unleash her ultimate move.
"I …"
Princess Summer's eyes seemed to be dyed red by Theresa's blood.
She finally gripped the handle of the knife with trembling hands. "I'm sorry, Theresa. I won't run away again!"
"Ao ao ao ao!"
The Demonic Halberd Pig roared and once again shot towards them like a cannonball.
Even the ground, which was covered in strange humus, had been plowed into a deep trench by it.
His aura was shocking, and he was like a huge boulder that fell from a ten thousand zhang tall cliff. He was unstoppable as he charged forward.
Facing such a huge creature, Princess A Xia's lips, hands, and legs were all trembling.
Her tears were like pearls from a broken necklace, completely out of her control.
But she still raised the knife high.
While sobbing, she gritted her teeth and muttered to herself to cheer herself up. "Come on. I'm not afraid of you. I won't let you hurt Theresa. I won't run away again. Come on. I don't care if you're the Demonic Halberd Pig or Uncle. I'm not afraid of you!"
She was extremely scared. She closed her eyes tightly and waved the knife randomly, clumsily chopping down.
Theresa sniffed.
Her seemingly young face was full of indifference, as if she had been through hundreds of battles.
And she was slightly … moved?
The handle of the knife, which had lost its blade, was still in her hand. Instead, she raised it high, like a torch that was about to be lit.
Mysterious magic power swirled around her, and circles of spiral ripples condensed on the hilt that was raised high.
Theresa began to chant in a voice that was slightly ancient and exotic.
"Search: All the level-three offensive spells that can be used currently.
"Sorting method: Casting speed, from fast to slow.
"Extract: Level-Three spell, Flame Dragon's Roar.
"Attack method: Attach it to the knife, lock on to a single target, and ignore it after shooting.
"Locked on target: Ten meters in front of you, Demonic Halberd Pig.
"Number of attacks: If the attack is effective, continue attacking until the target dies. If the attack is ineffective, automatically switch to the level-two offensive spell, Ice Arrow Stab, after three attacks.
"Application description complete.
"Submit and execute!"
When the last sentence of the incantation left her mouth, a series of mysterious and complicated magic runes appeared around her raised arm, forming a three-dimensional magic array.
On the hilt, in the originally empty space, there really was a burning torch. The flames were like a fountain that shot three to five meters into the air, then condensed into a ferocious magma dragon.
"Flame Dragon's Roar! Die, you beast!"
Theresa's figure flashed strangely, and with a twist, she appeared in front of Princess Ah Xia.
Her hands performed a beautiful magic trick, and the Flame Dragon Saber that was originally raised high became slanted downward.
She no longer faced the Demonic Halberd Pig's skull, which was the hardest part, head-on. Instead, she locked her gaze on the softest part of its throat, where the head and neck connected.
Whoosh!
The flame dragon pierced deeply into the Demonic Halberd Pig's throat at lightning speed.
The beast could not help but open its mouth and howl in pain.
However, Theresa's speed far exceeded its expectations. A second flame condensed into a sharp blade on the hilt and pierced its mouth.
The Demonic Halberd Pig's reaction was quite fast. It gritted its teeth, wanting to bite off Theresa's hilt and wrist.
Unexpectedly, Theresa was still feinting. There was no blade, but the hilt was a hundred times more nimble. The saber turned into a dagger, and it easily stuck to the Demonic Halberd Pig's left eye.
Thud!
The third offensive spell, Flame Dragon's Roar, completely exploded in front of the Demonic Halberd Pig's left eye.
The magic flames charged straight in, instantly crushing the eyeball and burning its visual nerves. They rampaged through the Demonic Halberd Pig's small brain, wreaking havoc along the way. Then, they spewed out large balls of flames from its right eye, nostrils, ears, and mouth.
The Demonic Halberd Pig's head completely turned into a fireball.
The human and pig crossed paths in an instant. Theresa lowered her body and did a beautiful forward roll, dodging under the Demonic Halberd Pig.
