When Veronica walked out of the fog, the Priestess of the former Holy Cathedral was just as shocked as Brando. Before he could react, the Azure Lady spoke to him: "Priestess Amman, you really surprised me."
"You too, Lady Veronica." Amman replied with a solemn expression.
"What a surprise. Greysword Saint-mephistopheles is actually working with the people of Cruz." Andesha covered the wound on her left arm with her right hand. Green blood flowed out from between her fingers, but she spoke coldly as if she did not feel any pain: "You stray dog over there. Is your hatred for the people of Cruz so shallow?"
Brando saw that the Sword Saint of Ashes did not show any expression in the face of such mockery. He just stood there as if he did not hear anything. Brando could not help but admire the Sword Saint for his magnanimity and self-restraint.
But he did not expect the legendary Sword Saint to raise his head and ask seriously: "Ah?"
'Ah your sister! Are you a natural idiot? ' Brando almost choked to death. He could not help but curse in his heart. The Sword Saint of Ashes was the representative of the NPCs who were fearless. He was the idol of countless people, but he did not expect him to be like this.
This was the effect of a deified idol collapsing in one's heart. Even though Brando was not a fanatic, the contrast was too great.
Andesha's face darkened. Of course, she did not think that Mephistopheles did not hear her words. She thought that he was just teasing her. In other words, he did not even put her in his eyes.
Andesha had been an Elemental Power for close to two hundred years, and she had never been looked down upon like this. For a moment, she felt the blood in her body boil.
She pointed at Mephistopheles and growled in a low voice: "Mephistopheles, thirty years ago I heard that you were the genius of the Mayer people. The Cruz Empire did not hesitate to send troops to suppress the Sutherland Duchy in order to strangle you in the cradle. Fortunately, that woman, Martha, still cares for you. But it is a pity that you did not cherish it and walked together with your former enemy. "
"You are indeed a genius with your talent, but you are still too far away from me. You should know that I underestimated you and let you take advantage of me, but this kind of situation will not happen again. Cherish your life, young man. Besides, the woman behind you is the Goddess of War of the Cruz Empire. Killing her will be a heavy blow to that arrogant empire. You should know this, right? "
Mephistopheles nodded: "I know it, Lady Andesha. But I am here to take your life now. As for my grudge with the Cruz Empire, I will settle it myself later."
"Don't refuse a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit." Andesha gritted her teeth. It was not that she did not dare to make a move against Mephistopheles. She had already grasped his strength in the previous battle. As long as she did not underestimate him, Mephistopheles would not stand a chance.
However, she wasn't willing to fight to the death with Mephistopheles. To put it bluntly, she didn't trust Hamil who was with her. She was very clear that that fellow could stab both of them in the back at any time.
But when Mephistopheles heard her, he raised his sword and replied: "I don't drink any wine. You should know that things that corrode one's mind are harmful to those who pursue the pinnacle of swordsmanship."
"Yes, and Andesha, you should know that both the Cruz Empire and the Mayer Empire are Martha's people. They are different from monsters like you. To us, you are the greatest enemy. Even if Count Mephistopheles has a grudge with the Cruz Empire, you should still unite against the common enemy, right? " Veronica raised her head and crossed her arms as she spoke to Andesha with a smile. This female commander had long green hair that draped over her shoulders, and her smile was exceptionally charming.
Andesha was furious: "Then you can die! Corrosion, I will show you the power of time! "
A green domain spread out behind the enraged lord. Everything that was enveloped by the green light was instantly weathered and disintegrated. The stone buildings that had been preserved for tens of thousands of years crumbled under the green light, turning into mud and sand that fell to the ground.
The green light extended forward and surrounded Mephistopheles and Veronica in an instant. It looked as if it was about to swallow them whole. Unexpectedly, the green light stopped when it was within a hundred feet of the Ash Sword Saint's body. It couldn't advance any further.
The streets around the green light turned into fine powder, and the stone slabs cracked to reveal the soil beneath. Plants grew and withered from the exposed soil, and the ground turned dark. But the streets beneath Mephistopheles' feet did not change at all.
[What's going on?] Andesha was slightly shocked. Mephistopheles' strength was much weaker than her, and he should not be able to resist her Element Corrosion.
"What's going on?" Faena, who was hiding under the cloak, also asked in confusion: "H-how is he able to resist the effects of Element Power from such a long distance? Is he as strong as Andesha?"
When she discovered that Mephistopheles was on Veronica's side, she changed her title from 'Great Demon King' to 'that guy'.
"Element Corrosion." Brando's eyes lit up: "Corrosion is just a low-level Element Corrosion, and it is at most on the same level as the dominant Element Corrosion. But the Law of Grey is the strongest Element Illusion, and it is also related to time. In the 'World of Grey', time slows down, and Corrosion is naturally ineffective. "
"And the Elements of Illusion are mostly self-determined Laws. In that world, the low-level Elements of Time have to obey the Laws of that world."
Brando did not say anything else, because the so-called Elements were divided into six levels: Micro Elements, Mixed Elements, Strong Elements, Law Power, Elemental Power, and Existential Power. Micro Elements were the power that everyone in the world of Wohnde had. They were also known as the Human Attribute, but they were not visible and were weak to the point of being undetectable.
Mixed Elements were the manifestation of Strong Elements, and they were also known as Dominant Elements. Most of these Elements would appear before a person had truly awakened their Element, such as the 'Freeze' ability that Brando had displayed.
But only those who had truly awakened their Element could possess Dominant Elements. This level was known as the Strong Element, and it was also the most widely distributed Element in the world.
Above that was the Power of Law, such as Fantasy, Mystery, Divine, and Nature. After that was the Power of Elements, which was also known as the highest level of Elements. The Four Elements belonged to this level of Elements, which was the foundation of this world.
Lastly was the Existential Power, which was parallel to or beyond the definition of the world itself. It was the foundation of the existence of matter and consciousness.
Andesha's Corrosion was only a low-level Element of Nature, and its highest level was Time. Even though it was of noble origin, it was only a low-level Element that was at the level of a Strong Element.
On the other hand, the 'World of Grey' of the Ash Sword Saint was a genuine Fantasy Element. Both Elements contained the Element of Time, but Andesha's power was suppressed due to the fact that the low-level Element had to obey the high-level Element.
If not for the fact that she was much stronger than Mephisto, Mephisto could have even used the World of Grey to control her Element.
"You're really lucky, Count Mephisto." Veronica laughed behind Mephisto. Even though she knew how dangerous Andesha's Element was, she did not seem to be bothered by it.
The young Sword Saint of the Mayer Empire turned around to look at her, and his dark grey eyes said, 'I already know about Andesha's abilities.'
"I see." Veronica replied. She reached out to protect Scarlet behind her and said to the red-haired girl: "Back off a little, you won't be able to interfere in the battle."
Scarlet showed a surprised expression: "You don't have to protect me, Lady Veronica. I'm also a Gold-ranked fighter."
"Oh?" Mephisto was slightly surprised: "Your lord is also a Gold-ranked fighter, isn't he? The Erouine Empire has produced quite a few people in recent years. I heard that there's a young man called Buga who has outstanding talent and obtained the recognition of the Cross Sword Saint. Is he also from your empire?"
Scarlet nodded. Buga was her vice-commander. However, she did not dare to say that the young Buga was no longer young. He was already middle-aged.
"You don't have to look at me," Veronica saw the Sword Saint of the Mayer Empire looking back at her and could not help but grumble: "You don't really believe that woman's nonsense, do you? The empire did not send troops to the Sutherland Duchy because of you, the Duke's son. Besides, don't worry, I'll do what I say."
"That's good." Mephisto raised his sword: "I'll deal with that woman, and you deal with the cleric. Is that alright?"
"No problem, Amman is not as strong as me." Veronica replied.
"That's not necessarily true. You have to be careful," Mephisto said. He then added: "I'm not worried about you, I just don't want you to be a burden to me."
Veronica glared at him. No one had ever dared to speak to her like that ever since she became famous. Besides, she was older than this' young Sword Saint '.
However, Mephisto ignored her and turned his head back without saying a word. The conversation between the three of them happened in an instant, and Andesha also noticed the problem. She was so shocked that her face became distorted.
Even though her Element Power was suppressed, it did not mean that she could not do anything to Mephisto. She was the Lord of Tree Herders, and she did not rely on her Element Power to survive. She let go of her right hand that was covering her left arm and grabbed the wooden staff that was floating in the air. Her eyes were almost spitting fire as she glared at the people below.
She gripped her scepter tightly and shouted: "O 'Primal Chaos above all things, I revere your power with all my heart. May your wrath and anger burn away all existences that violate the truth of this world. Now, let me borrow your authority and do your thing!"
A terrifying chill ran through everyone's heart.
"Seventh moon, I call upon your name, Ankaram, and all things return to the same path." Andesha raised her staff and pierced through the vines covering her body. Black scales that flowed with blood grew out from her body: "Come, Dragon of Chaos, Dusk —"
(Note: Ankaram is the name of the Seventh Moon. The Witches believe that this moon is the reflection of the Shadow and Destruction Magic in the sky. It represents the brutality and killing intent of the Dusk Dragon. Ankaram and the Fourth Moon, Akana, are twins. Akana represents judgment and rebirth in the legends of the Cruz, and is also the Moon of Wisdom for the Buga Magi.)
Horns grew out from her hair, and the sun in the sky dimmed. A pair of wings covered in scales spread out from her back. She shook her head and tail, and her neck lengthened. Her fingernails became sharp, and her body grew bigger and bigger.
"She's really angry now!" "Take Sifrid and find a place to hide. Don't get too close, or the wind blades from the battle will scratch your face. Don't blame me for not warning you." Brendel said to Faena as he pulled out Halran Gaia from his back and gripped the hilt tightly: "Find a place to hide with Sifrid and don't get too close.
"Y-you … … I-I'm not afraid. I want to go as well, I'm a warrior too!" Vahina's eyes widened as she reached for her dagger, but she remembered that she had lost it earlier: "I-I can use magic to help you!"
"You want to go?" Brando looked at her: "Are you saying that you want to leave a child like Sifrid alone on this battlefield? You're really vicious, woman. "
"You —" Vahina was at a loss for words. She glared at him: "Alright, I understand. But if you lose, I'll make fun of you."
[Lose?]
Brando looked at the battlefield outside. [Even if I lose, I don't need you to make fun of me. No one here will be able to survive.]
However, he was more concerned about Amman. He knew that he could not interfere in the battle between Andesha and Mephisto.
He raised his sword and stared at the battlefield, waiting for Amman to exchange blows with Veronica before launching a sneak attack from the back. However, if the young miss beside him knew what he was thinking at this moment, she would probably scold him for having a dark heart and only thinking about sneak attacks.
But in Brando's eyes, he would be a fool if he did not launch a sneak attack. Ambushing NPCs was a player's specialty, and it would be a waste if he did not use it.
"Heh, you probably don't know who Song Xianggong is, little girl. This is the power of transmigration, and Chaos is nothing compared to it! " He glanced at Vahina, then at Andesha who had completely transformed into a dragon. Instead of criticizing her, it would be better to say that he was encouraging himself.
