Giles who was quietly approaching Melanie showed a dangerous glare in his eyes.
Suddenly, the longsword at Newhound's waist was drawn out of its sheath and brazenly launched a sneak attack at Melanie.
Newhound had already adjusted his breathing and posture, allowing him to explode with strength and speed that far exceeded his usual but … the strike missed.
Melanie seemed to have seen through everything, when the longsword was about to pierce her, she slightly shifted her steps.
Newhound's longsword grazed Melanie's body.
The sword in Melanie's hand was placed on the neck of the new Hound.
Wuuu!
Waves of wails of the dead came from the longsword, causing Newhound's face to change a few times. Then, he cooperated and raised his hands up high.
"As expected …"
Puk!
Melanie wanted to say something.
But before he could say anything, a long sword pierced through his chest.
Melanie lowered her head to look at the bloodied tip of her sword before turning around to look at the Hound that ambushed her.
It was a man in a black robe with an aged face.
"Ettergran?"
Melanie's face was filled with shock, as if she couldn't believe the man would attack her.
"That's right, it's Ettergran, the most experienced and most ferocious Hound!
Of course, there are far more than just two of us! "
Newhound's words subsided.
Another two of the Hounds launched lethal attacks at the people beside them and swiftly approached the aged Hound.
Soon, the three of them formed a formation, guarding against the other Hounds' counterattack.
At the same time, Newhound threw himself at Melanie.
Giles knew the most urgent matter at hand was to snatch the item from Melanie's hand, otherwise, the Holy Relic Society's Knight would be annihilated.
Giles easily snatched the item from Melanie's hand.
However, the moment he got the item, Giles' face turned sour.
Then, the young man wanted to throw the item at Melanie without a second thought.
Unfortunately, it was a little too late.
KABOOM!
An explosion came from the young man's hand.
It blasted the young man into pieces.
"Cough, cough, cough."
"Do you really think I would put such a crucial thing in front of everyone?"
Melanie coughed a few times and didn't even spare a glance at the corpse that was left behind. She turned her gaze to Ettergran and the other two and laughed coldly.
"I never thought it would be you!"
"Elders, we've long since discovered that there's an invisible spy beside us. We've suspected countless people, but that guy has hidden too deeply. We need some special methods to lure him out …"
"So, you suggested setting up a trap?"
"Not only did he use himself as bait, he even had the elders work together to create this thing?"
The old man sighed and asked.
"It's just that the appearance of the World Tree's fruit made me think that it was a good opportunity, because those hateful hypocrites will definitely appear!"
"Look, everything is as I expected!"
Melanie said as she bandaged her wound.
His tone was calm, without the slightest hint of complacency, as if everything was as it should be.
However, such a matter-of-fact attitude was more stimulating than any expression of complacency.
The hound standing beside Ettergran shouted, "Melanie, do you think you've already won?"
"What else?"
Melanie replied with a question.
"Open your eyes and watch carefully!"
The traitorous Hound shouted.
"I'll wait and see."
Melanie said calmly.
Wung!
A buzzing sound suddenly sounded.
A formless ripple spread out in all directions, the flames formed by the negative emotions towards the Holy Relic Society were instantly dispersed.
Especially the giant skeletal claw, it was turned into nothing by the ripple.
The six illusory figures that were drowned by the ripple appeared again.
They were still floating above the Knight's head.
The brilliance was getting more dazzling and eye-catching.
The Knight's aura was getting stronger.
"See that?
The power of God's Descent has far exceeded your expectations. You who are stuck at the current level will never understand what true power is! "
The traitorous Hound said delightedly.
"Oh, so this is why you were bought over?"
Melanie nodded without changing her expression.
The reaction stunned the traitorous Hound, an uncomfortable feeling rose from his heart.
"Are you still putting on an act until now?"
The traitorous Hound shouted louder.
It seemed like it could make the uncomfortable feeling go away.
But in fact, it didn't.
Not only did it not, it was getting more and more uncomfortable.
The traitorous Hound felt like he had forgotten something.
Ettergran, on the other hand, thought of something, he suddenly looked at the Holy Relic Society Knight.
The Knight was too quiet.
So quiet that it was abnormal!
The other two traitorous Hounds saw Ettergran's action and instantly realized what was going on.
The three of them widened their eyes at the Holy Relic Society Knight, some of them had a bloodthirsty smile on their face and walked towards the frozen Knight like butchers.
"This is impossible!"
Ettergran shouted in disbelief.
"I didn't just know how powerful God's Descent is, I also know its weakness because … someone told me everything about the so-called God's Descent.
Ettergran, are you still naive enough to think that the current Holy Relic Society is the same as the Holy Relic Society when it was first established?
Power is the poison that corrodes people's hearts!
The Holy Relic Society is no exception, in fact, they are even more thorough than us, after all, they thought they had won the war against us!
Besides, you have forgotten the most important point. We are the real experts in buying people's hearts and plotting betrayal! "
Melanie looked at the three traitorous Hounds with pity and waved her hand at the remaining Hounds.
The massacre began.
Even though Ettergran was the most experienced and the fiercest Hound, the outcome was decided when he faced ten opponents who were on the same level as him.
The other two traitorous Hounds wanted to surrender but under Melanie's gaze, they were minced into meat paste.
They were much more pitiful than the Knight who was like a lamb waiting to be butchered.
At least, the Knight was only decapitated.
Puk! Puk! Puk!
Heads were chopped off one after another.
Blood gushed out from their necks one after another.
The number of Knight was decreasing rapidly.
The scales of victory seemed to have completely tilted towards the Hounds' side.
The Hounds and the traitorous Knight thought they had won the unprecedented victory, no one thought there would be any more accidents.
Therefore, when a giant meteor hammer fell from the sky and pierced through the ceiling of the sewer, the Hounds were astonished and inconceivable.
“2567！”
Melanie was stunned and called out instinctively.
