The carriage that was traveling in the dark seemed to be suddenly pressed down by an invisible giant hand. The horses that were pulling the carriage let out a frightened neigh. However, the raised front hooves could not move forward at all. The coachman was thrown to the ground by the huge inertia and rolled far away. His head hit the curb and he immediately fainted.
After that, the carriage exploded with a boom, and wood splinters flew everywhere. A wind wall appeared in front of Lilith's chest and surrounded her, resisting most of the impact. She cast a Levitation Spell on herself in a flash, and finally landed lightly on the ground.
On the other hand, Blitz was in a much worse state. His clothes were full of wood splinters, and the corner of his mouth was cut by a piece of decorative porcelain on the carriage door. The aftermath of the explosion even threw him to the ground. However, his eyes were filled with excitement. After rolling twice, he immediately got up from the ground with a smile on his face. He praised, "As expected of President Lilith. You realized that the magic formation was useless against me in such a short time and decisively created an explosion, using the physical damage caused by the explosion to injure me. That's really amazing. It seems that everyone has underestimated you. You're actually so strong …"
In the first round of confrontation, Lilith had the upper hand. However, the female mage's brows were knitted tighter and tighter. "Who are you people? Why are you immune to magic? Is it because you brought some special equipment, or is it your own ability? "
Blitz grinned. "Unfortunately, we've already passed the Q&A session. However, I'm very curious. With your strength, President Lilith, you could have done better with the explosion just now. If you had released it a few seconds earlier, you could have caused more damage to me. However, in order to protect the coachman, you insisted on letting the carriage stop first and throwing him out. However, this also gave me enough time to react and defend, and the damage caused by the explosion this time was much smaller. So, who is he? Is he your companion?"
The female mage shook her head. "No, he's just an ordinary person. I spent a silver coin to hire him to drive this carriage over when I need it. Naturally, I have to ensure his safety."
"As expected, President Lilith's character is truly admirable. Seeing you like this fills me with motivation." Blitz stretched his neck and limbs.
The female mage did not understand where the other party's confidence came from. Although she did not know what method he had used to make himself immune to magic damage, which gave him a natural advantage in the battle against mages, it did not mean that he could win this battle easily. Moreover, as a level-5 mage, Lilith had many life-saving trump cards. Even if the battle was really disadvantageous to her, she could still leave at any time. It was impossible for Blitz to stop her.
In the next moment, the usually calm Vice President's expression changed slightly. This was because she felt seven other similar auras rapidly approaching her.
"To be honest, if it's possible, I'd love to have a good fight with you. Unfortunately, like I said, this is never a fair fight. Our goal tonight is to kill you, and the shorter the process, the better. After all, this is Gudilesi." Blitz pulled out a cold dagger from somewhere.
Just as he finished speaking, the other seven figures also arrived on the battlefield. They were only a few seconds apart. Blitz was not lying. They were clearly prepared tonight. If Lilith refused to cooperate, they would not hesitate to kill her.
The eight of them surrounded the female mage, cutting off all her escape routes. Lilith's expression was grave at this moment. The newcomers were all level-5 like Blitz, and the female mage did not know if they had the same magical immunity to magic as the latter. If the worst happened, she would have no chance of surviving tonight's battle.
However, even at this moment, Lilith still remained calm. She started with a Sand Dust spell. The purpose of this spell was to block the enemy's vision. Both sides would lose their vision in this Sand Dust spell. Immediately after that, the female mage released Eye of the Highland, which reopened the vision of her side. The timing of these two spells was perfect. The combination of the spells was as wonderful as a textbook.
If there was another mage present at this moment, he would definitely be cheering for Lilith. Neither of the two magic ranks were high, but their combination was undoubtedly the best choice in this situation. In a situation where the opponent clearly had the upper hand in terms of strength, the two spells also won a glimmer of hope for Lilith.
However, the female mage's expression did not change at all. Very soon, she immersed herself in the chanting of the third spell. This time, Lilith chose to be very cautious, and mainly to probe. In the end, when she was halfway through the chanting, she suddenly felt a pain in her calf.
Lilith lowered her head and saw a small black snake at her feet. The snake happened to be looking up at her too. The latter had just used her Sandstorm Spell to conceal its body and quietly slithered to her feet. In addition, she had been focusing on the other eight people, so she did not notice the snake at all. After being bitten on her calf, the black snake loosened its teeth and flashed a sly smile at her. Then, it wagged its tail and slithered quickly into the night.
On Lilith's injured calf, a strange dark green line was spreading to her whole body at an alarming speed.
"Sin of Shadow?" The female mage seemed to have thought of something, and a rare trace of anger appeared in her voice.
This little snake looked inconspicuous, but it was even more famous than the Killer Ghost Erinia. It was not a creature from the Dawn Continent, but from the deepest part of the Abyss, a place called the Rift Valley. Rumor had it that the most terrifying monsters in the entire Abyss lived there. Wherever an adult Sin of Shadow passed, not even a blade of grass would grow, and even birds would fall from the sky. It was worthy of being the king of poisons. The toxicity contained in its body could easily destroy a city or even a small country. Therefore, it was the natural enemy of all creatures in the Dawn Continent.
However, this Sin of Shadow was still in its infancy. It would have to go through at least eight to nine metamorphoses before it could evolve into a terrifying monster. Even so, its toxicity was beginning to show.
In just a short while, Lilith had lost all her mobility, and even the magic source in her body seemed to be on the verge of collapsing. The poison was spreading too fast. If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they probably wouldn't have believed it. The female mage, who was still awe-inspiring half a minute ago, was now in such a terrible state. She even had to support herself with her staff to prevent herself from falling.
