For the first time, Garcia witnessed the horror of an Extraordinary.
Her weapon was just an ordinary one-handed sword, but every move she made was so oppressive that it could take one's soul away. Every hit on the shield was as heavy as a two-handed sword. After two or three hits, Garcia could no longer raise her arms, and then her chin was smashed by a slash from the bottom up.
After recovering, the Queen of Clearwater completely abandoned her defense. In a flash, a bed crossbow appeared in front of her. She pulled the trigger, but instead of an iron spear, she shot several jars of Styx Black Water. Zero swung her sword to cut down the jars, but was drenched by the black water. The Evil Fire Crystals soaked in the jars came into contact with the air, and quickly burned, turning the Pure Witch into a pillar of fire.
But the next move didn't work, the opponent used a speed far beyond that of an ordinary person to quickly move around the flower pond, and the bed crossbow simply couldn't turn around. Garcia could only rely on the stone walls and iron railings covered with spikes to stop the Pure Witch's movement, turning the flower pots placed in the garden into explosives filled with snow powder, and sometimes the ground would suddenly sink, forming a fatal trap.
In this way, after killing the opponent several times, Garcia found that her breathing gradually became heavy, beads of sweat slid down her forehead, and the waves of dizziness in her head almost made her unable to stand.
"Well done," the reborn Zero didn't take advantage of the situation to attack, but instead clapped her hands, "You being able to do this is already beyond my expectations, but I forgot to tell you, although in this world you can use your own consciousness to change the environment and place, but it consumes far more energy than creating things out of thin air … even comparable to resurrection. You should be able to feel the weakness and exhaustion of your body, maybe the next time you die, it will be a complete and eternal sleep. "
"Ha, that's still better than stretching out your neck to be killed," Garcia gasped a few times, "And you seem to have forgotten the screams you made when you were burned by the Evil Fire. How many times did you die this round? Three times, or four times? I don't think you can last longer than me. "
"…" Zero was silent for a moment before opening her mouth, "Since I became a Pure, the Church has made a lot of preparations for me, from gaining knowledge, learning fighting skills, to feeding the Army of Judges to improve my ability. The Judgement Warriors knew that they would be sacrificed, but they still stepped into the Soul Battlefield. In the Realm of Consciousness, they tempered my skills by fighting to the death. Then, they accepted death with peace of mind and passed on their understanding and experience to me. "
Garcia did not interrupt her. Perhaps the other party was stalling for time, but she did need to rest for a while.
"I even devoured an Extraordinaire. Her power was terrifying, and I was almost defeated in the Battle of Souls. But in the end, I relied on the Devil's weapon to defeat her and obtained everything she had. Due to the different nature of magic, I was unable to truly transform into an Extraordinary, nor was I able to display the abilities of the other witches who had been engulfed. However, in the world of consciousness, these were not difficult matters. After that, very few people could threaten me. In these two hundred years, I had devoured so many that even I couldn't remember how many people I had devoured. I've experienced every pain, joy, sorrow, and joy in this world … "She paused." Even death. "
"What are you trying to say?" Garcia frowned.
"The difference between you and me," Zero replied calmly. "The superposition of many souls has made my will incomparably strong. If measured by the number of deaths, I think I can withstand at least a hundred deaths. "
"I'll help you verify it." She sneered twice, but her heart sank … The other party's demeanor did not seem to be bluffing. When she had cleanly killed the guards at the dock, it could be seen that the Pure Witch indeed possessed fighting skills that did not match her age. If that's the case, then I must have a more powerful weapon … Quickly think, what kind of weapon can easily kill an experienced Extraordinary witch?
"The Battle of Souls is not a contest of imagination." Zero seemed to have seen through her thoughts. "You can't make yourself invulnerable out of thin air, nor can you summon those earth-shattering weapons from ancient legends … You can't create things that you haven't experienced. What you see and know is the key to victory."
"I'll cover the entire garden with strong snow powder, so that you won't be able to hide," Garcia said coldly. "Even if I die, at least I can drag you down with me!"
"Even if the result is meaningless?" The Pure Witch looked at her with pity. "In that case, I'll show you the true power of the church."
Beams of red light appeared behind Zero, and then condensed into a hideous and terrifying chariot. Its body was so huge that it directly crushed the garden wall. The two metal spears protruding from the top of her head reminded Garcia of the report of the Wolf King's guards. A kind of ballista that she had never seen before was attacking the city wall. Both its range and power were unprecedented. Could it be that the guards were talking about this behemoth in front of her?
Then she heard a buzzing sound.
The thick spear directly passed through the layers of obstacles set by Garcia and effortlessly tore her into two halves. When her body flew backward, she could still see her organs and blood spilling out.
The chariot continuously launched unstoppable spears, but after recovering, it quickly repeated the same death. She did not even have the time to create snow powder to perish together with the enemy. The continuous pain made her consciousness gradually blurred. The earth began to tremble, cracks appeared in the sky, and under the thunder and lightning, the garden was set ablaze.
"A strong will can only delay failure, but it can't change the result." Zero closed her eyes. "You've persevered long enough. Rest in peace."
As soon as her voice fell, the whole world collapsed.
...
"It's over?" Isabella curled her lips. "Shouldn't it be over in an instant? You've obviously changed back to your original appearance, but you didn't say a word for a long time... I thought you really failed. "
"I found some interesting things in her memory." Zero opened her eyes. "These ideas... make me feel a little emotional."
"Oh? There's actually something that makes you emotional? "Isabella said carelessly." That strange alchemy powder, you should have found it, right? "
"Yes, the alchemists call it strong snow powder. Its composition is quite simple, and it's common in the workshop."
"That's good. Hurry back to the Holy City and report to His Holiness O 'Brien." She exhaled. "The battle here will continue for at least three or four days. But without the leader and the witches, the remnants are no longer a threat to the God's Punishment Army."
"Let's go." Zero nodded.
"Wait..." Isabella stopped her.
"What's wrong?"
"Is it an illusion? Her appearance is obviously the same as before, but why do I always feel that there is something different in her light red eyes?" Isabella carefully looked at her for a moment, then shook her head. "No... nothing."
"Maybe I'm thinking too much." (To be continued.)
