"A Tier 3 Personal Guard?" Beast Emperor was slightly surprised to see Anna standing beside the Shifeng through the crystal ball in the Evil God's Temple. However, a sneer appeared on his face as he said, "Do you really think a mere Tier 3 Personal Guard can stop a Tier 4 NPC?"
To put it bluntly, Personal Guards in God's Domain were hired NPCs.
However, Personal Guards were different from ordinary NPCs. Due to the strengthening of their contracts, Personal Guards had higher Basic Attributes than ordinary NPCs of the same level. Compared to monsters, Personal Guards were more suited to protect and deal with players.
Although Anna had already been promoted to Tier 3 and was slightly stronger than ordinary Tier 3 NPCs, she was still far from comparable to a Tier 4 Mythic monster.
The Tier 4 Curse, Dark Prison, could trap a Tier 4 Mythic monster for at least an hour.
During this time, although they couldn't attack the sealed monster, the sealed monster wouldn't be able to do anything, either.
Although the Divine Magic Dragon was extremely powerful, Beast Emperor estimated that he could trap it for at least 20 minutes.
Trying to use a Tier 3 Personal Guard to delay the Divine Magic Dragon for 20 minutes was a joke.
Beast Emperor wasn't the only person with such thoughts. Everyone present shared the same thought.
Although there was only a small difference between Tier 3 and Tier 4, the further one reached a tier, the greater the difference in strength would become. A Tier 3 NPC wouldn't even be able to stall for time against a Tier 4 NPC.
As Dyro and the two Level 80 Mythic Evil Beasts approached, Anna, who stood inside the defensive magic array, began to chant an incantation, rapidly writing divine runes in the air.
Golden divine runes quickly formed in the air, one after another.
At the same time, two gigantic magic arrays appeared beside Anna, one bright and one dark. The ambient Mana rapidly flowed into these two magic arrays, and Ling Yi and the others felt the Mana density around them increase by several times.
Double-speed-casting!
"This Personal Guard is pretty good. She can actually double-speed-cast. It's a pity that she's going to die here today." The various major powers' upper echelons couldn't help their envy as they watched Anna cast her Spell.
NPCs were indeed powerful, but there was also a large gap between them.
Magical-Class NPCs that could double-cast were already incredibly rare, not to mention double-speed-cast. This was also why Dyro had been able to double-speed-cast and double-speed-cast.
The higher a Personal Guard's tier was, the greater their advantage would be. Take Dyro for example. Despite being no match for Shifeng's Divine Magic Dragon, Dyro relied on various techniques to render the Shifeng helpless. In fact, the Divine Magic Dragon had even restricted the Personal Guard's movements.
While everyone had such thoughts, two pillars of light, one white and one black, rose from the two gigantic magic arrays.
Three summoned beasts walked out of the two light pillars.
The summoned beasts that appeared from the pillar of light were three knights in silver armor. The three knights were holding mirror-like shields and silver swords.
[Knight of Light] (Elemental Creature, Grand Lord) Level 80 HP 60,000,000/60,000,000
On the other side of the Pillar of Darkness, there were three Magicians wearing pitch-black robes. Each of them held a magic staff that emitted four different kinds of light, and their bodies were surrounded by black fog.
[Envoy of Darkness] (Elemental Creature, Grand Lord) Level 80 HP 45,000,000/45,000,000
Tier 3 Spell, Light Summon!
Tier 3 Spell, Darkness Summon!
When players consumed the Grandmaster Growth Potion, they'd only gain a single tier. However, it was a different story for NPCs. After Anna reached Tier 3, she'd learned all of the Tier 3 Spells she needed to learn. She was now a bona fide Tier 3 player.
The Growth Potion's only drawback was its short duration, 15 minutes. Once the duration was over, the Growth Potion would revert to its original state. Hence, the Growth Potion could only be used during critical moments. It couldn't be used as a trump card in a Guild war or siege war.
"What a powerful Personal Guard!"
When the six Level 80 Grand Lords appeared, everyone fell silent. They had never thought that Anna would be so powerful. She was practically invincible among Tier 3 players.
However, before anyone could recover from their shock, Anna controlled the Knight of Light and Envoy of Darkness to charge at Dyro and the two Mythic Evil Beasts.
The Knight of Light was extremely fast. In the blink of an eye, the Knight of Light formed a triangular formation before Dyro and the two Mythic Evil Beasts.
Immediately, a magic array of light appeared beneath the Knight of Light's feet. The magic array then intertwined with each other, forming a barrier of light that trapped Dyro and the Evil Beasts. As a result, the two Mythic Evil Beasts' Basic Attributes fell once more. Now, they only had 60% of their original Basic Attributes. If they didn't kill the Knight of Light, they wouldn't be able to leave the barrier.
By the time the Knight of Light finished its attack, the Envoy of Darkness had finished chanting her incantation. A pitch-black fog formed beneath Dyro and the Evil Beasts' feet, binding the two Mythic Evil Beasts. Although the fog didn't weaken the two Mythic Evil Beasts in the slightest, its reaction speed and Movement Speed had decreased by 50%, making it difficult for the two Mythic Evil Beasts to move.
After the Knight of Light and Envoy of Darkness further suppressed Dyro and the Mythic Evil Beasts, Anna finished chanting the final verse of her incantation.
Tier 4 Spell, Yin-Yang Transmigration!
In the next moment, a magic array of light and darkness appeared in the sky. Following which, 36 swords emerged from the magic array: 18 silver swords and 18 pitch-black swords. These swords then descended on Dyro and the two Mythic Evil Beasts.
The two Mythic Evil Beasts had no intention of dodging the incoming swords. Instead, they met the incoming swords with their claws.
The instant the Mythic Evil Beasts' claws collided with the silver swords, the two Mythic Evil Beasts' claws bounced off. In terms of Strength, the two Mythic Evil Beasts were on completely different levels. When the other Mythic Evil Beasts clashed with the pitch-black swords, the swords actually passed through the Evil Beasts' claws and dealt over -1,000,000 damage to the Mythic Evil Beasts.
When the 36 swords descended, the Mythic Evil Beasts let out agonized cries.
Now, the previously invincible Mythic Evil Beasts screamed in agony as their HPs continuously decreased. They couldn't even run away, much less advance.
As for Dyro, he didn't dare to block the attacks directly. Instead, he used his Skills and Spells to evade the attacks. He couldn't even focus on killing the Knight of Light, much less destroying the defensive magic array.
After fighting for over a dozen seconds, Dyro and the Mythic Evil Beasts couldn't break through Anna's blockade. In contrast, the Mythic Evil Beasts' HPs continuously decreased …
"Are you kidding me?! Is she really a Tier 3 Personal Guard?! "Everyone was stunned when they saw Dyro and the Mythic Evil Beasts being suppressed.
Although Dyro and the Evil Beasts' combat power had decreased significantly due to the Tier 4 Domain Scroll's suppression, they shouldn't be existences that Tier 3 NPCs should be capable of contending with. Yet, Anna, Shifeng's Personal Guard, had done just that.
Aside from describing Anna as powerful, no one knew how else to describe her.
Although Anna had only been a single Personal Guard, she was like a team of NPCs. The Tier 4 Mythic NPCs and Evil Beasts were helpless against her, and they could only whittle her down.
So, this is the strength of an Epic Personal Guard? Shifeng was astonished when he saw Anna seal off Dyro and the Evil Beasts. He never thought that Anna could contend with a Tier 4 NPC while still at Tier 3.
With Anna's help, Dyro still couldn't break through the Knight of Light's blockade even after fighting for over a minute. On the contrary, his HP continuously decreased.
Seeing this, Beast Emperor's eyes turned bloodshot. He had no choice but to wait for the potion Anna had consumed to end its effects. After all, this type of potion had a very short duration. Once its duration ended, Anna would no longer have the strength to continue fighting.
One minute … Three minutes … Five minutes …
Anna remained as powerful as ever. She showed no signs of weakening.
Meanwhile, after Shifeng's Forbidden Domain's Cooldown ended, Shifeng used the Forbidden Domain on the Dark Prison without hesitation.
Suddenly, cracks appeared on the pitch-black sphere, and the magic array disappeared. The Divine Magic Dragon regained its freedom and charged at Dyro once more.
Dyro was already significantly weaker than the Divine Magic Dragon, and after the Tier 4 Domain Scroll's suppression, this gap became even more pronounced. Currently, Dyro was only slightly stronger than other Grand Lords of the same level. This made the gap between them despairing. Not to mention, Dyro was currently in a Forbidden Domain.
Shifeng controlled the Divine Magic Dragon to arrive before Dyro and swiped its claw at the Mythic NPC.
Boom!
This time, Dyro couldn't cast any Spells. With his Basic Attributes, he couldn't block the Divine Magic Dragon's claw. The Divine Magic Dragon's claw struck Dyro, and a damage of over -2,000,000 appeared above his head. To Dyro, who only had 60,000,000 HP, this was one-thirtieth of his HP …
Strike while he's down!
Anna also took action, bombarding Dyro with another Tier 4 Spell. Immediately, a damage of over -7,000,000 appeared above the NPC's head.
Although 60,000,000 HP might seem a lot, it was nothing in front of Anna and the Divine Magic Dragon's Mythic combatants.
Dyro's HP was rapidly draining out of his body. Even after spending six or seven seconds to break free from the Silencing effect, he still had less than one-third of his HP remaining.
Although Dyro used one powerful Spell after another to dodge the attacks, the massive difference between his Basic Attributes wasn't something his Skills could make up for. As a result, Dyro's HP decreased at a rate visible to the naked eye.
