Sunier slowly drew back the bow in her hand. The howls echoing over the Bone Plain also affected her greatly. She didn't know whether she could release the attack or not, but she had to try. No one was willing to wait for death without doing anything. However, Sunier knew one thing, which was something Gao Bin had repeatedly warned her about. The most frightening thing about a top-grade or supra elven archer wasn't how many enemies they could kill with their arrows, but the threat and pressure they posed before they released their arrows! To put it more bluntly, if her longbow was fully drawn and the arrow was about to be released, then all her enemies would be wary. Once the arrow was released, regardless of whether it could kill them or not, she would no longer be a threat, unless she could prepare a second attack in an extremely short amount of time.
What should she do? Sunier's heart was in turmoil. If she was alone, she would be much more relaxed, but now her choices could determine the life and death of several of her companions. This was a weight she couldn't bear.
"Will it work?" Manteco saw Sunier's actions. "The Abandoned Land was created by the great Lord Denver himself. For you, I've already used up an extremely precious magic scroll. If I wasn't confident enough, how could I bear to use it? Hahaha … "
"Lord Manteco," the abyssal devil suddenly said, "I have a small request."
"What is it?"
"Give her to me." The abyssal devil pointed at Yalina.
If Yalina had just left the Capital of Elements, she might have trembled in anger and attacked at all costs. However, she had experienced too much in the past few years. When Sunier looked at her with a worried expression, she saw an unusually calm Yalina. However, Yalina's eyes had become as cold as knives.
"No problem, we're friends, after all." Manteco appeared very generous, then said in a hoarse voice, "Honorable powerhouses, before Raphael arrives, you wouldn't mind a prelude, would you? Ha … Of course, it would be a heart-wrenching prelude. "
"I can't wait any longer." The abyssal devil man let out a strange laugh and suddenly rushed toward Yalina like a bolt of lightning.
In fact, the abyssal devil was a species that appeared later. They were very few in number because they were the offspring of dragons who had mastered the Ultimate Shapeshifting Skill and other lifeforms. In other words, they were hybrids.
There were two types of hybrids — the Drakonids and the Demonkin. When the Drakonids and Demonkin were born, their talents and physiques were about the same. However, due to the different education they received, they evolved into two different existences with great differences in status.
Although the dragons were powerful, they were few in number. Looking at a few familiar faces for thousands of years was quite boring. That was why the dragons who had just mastered the Ultimate Shapeshifting Technique liked to travel around. The Ultimate Shapeshifting Technique provided them with an excellent disguise. However, there were some things that could not be disguised, such as great strength, arrogance, and so on. They also liked to release their strength. The fear and worship of low-level creatures made them feel satisfied. In this world where the strong were respected, they could easily win many things wherever they went. Romantic encounters were only one of the many things that were not worth mentioning.
Their vision covered the entire continent, and they would not stay in one place for too long. Sometimes, they would leave after a single moment, and sometimes, they would feel bored after half a month or a month. Then, they would start looking for their next target. The children born in this situation were Devils, and some of them did not even know who their father was. Even if a dragon really fell in love with an ordinary woman, it would never bring her back to the dragon's habitat, as it would be ridiculed by its companions.
A female dragon who went out to travel was much more reserved in this aspect. Although she wouldn't bring back the man she liked, a child was different. The dragon race's pregnancy was very, very long. What kind of feeling would it be to feel a new life in the womb in the endless river of time? It could even be said that the child had become a part of her life, and no one could separate them. She could use the most extreme methods to protect herself and her child without thinking, without any rationality. Dragonborn were born in this situation. They could be taken care of by their mothers as soon as they were born, and they could learn how to strengthen themselves. The best of them could even master Dragon Language Magic, but this was not something their mothers could teach them.
Yalina immediately raised her magic staff and released a lightning ball, which hit the abyssal devil's body with great precision. Yalina felt like her head was about to split open after just casting an intermediate spell. This was the result of her forcefully condensing her mental strength.
The abyssal devil broke through the lightning ball without any hesitation, allowing the electric arcs to flow all over his body. Devils and Dragonborn were both descendants of dragons. Not only were they extremely strong, but they also had extremely strong physical and magical defenses. The lightning ball could not hurt him at all.
Yalina took a step back and raised her magic staff again, but her face suddenly turned pale.
Sunier took a deep breath. She wanted to stall for time, but the current situation did not allow her to think too much. She nocked an arrow on the bowstring and pointed it at the abyssal devil from afar.
"Sunier, your opponent is me!" Manteco laughed. With a gesture of his hand, huge waves suddenly appeared on the boundless plain of bones, covering the sky and the earth.
Sunier and the others were all swept up by the huge waves and scattered in different directions. Although they tried their best to control their bodies and land steadily, the scene around them had changed drastically. The whole plain began to roar, and millions of skeletons were flying and hovering in all directions, completely blocking their vision.
"Yalina!!" Sunier screamed. She could not see anything, and she did not know where to shoot the arrow in her hand.
"I told you, your opponent is me. You should worry about yourself!" Manteco's sinister laughter came from the front.
The Great Lich Danfo, who had lived for countless years, had painstakingly created this Forsaken Land in order to become an eternal king. No one could fight against the Lich here, so Manteco was full of confidence. The only thing that could completely destroy this Forsaken Land was the Light of Creation. However, the superior angels who could cast this ultimate spell were the Archangel of Authority Alpha and the Archangel of Wisdom Catherine. The former was in the Heavens, and the latter was right behind him. What did he have to fear?
Yalina forced herself to cast a magic shield and a levitation spell, but then she felt her vision darken. Her mind, which was on the verge of collapse, warned her not to cast any more spells! As soon as her feet touched the ground made of bones, she saw the abyssal devil rush out of the waves of bones without any hindrance and quickly approach her.
Yalina's eyes widened. She waved her magic staff again, but nothing happened. As a senior magus, she did not know how long it had been since she had failed a spell. She could not help but stand there in a daze.
When the abyssal devil was less than two meters away, Yalina finally came to her senses. She swung her magic staff with all her might and smashed it at the devil's head.
The abyssal demon was much faster than Yalina. He gently stretched out his left hand, grabbed Yalina's magic staff, and punched forward with his right fist. Yalina's magic shield collapsed in an instant, and then the abyssal demon's fist landed on Yalina's chest and abdomen. The heavy blow made Yalina's body curl up like a shrimp, and large beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.
The abyssal devil raised his left hand and dragged Yalina up. He laughed strangely. "Does it hurt? But I didn't use any strength … "
There was no anger in Yalina's eyes, only indifference and a bit of unwillingness. She was a magus, but she was unable to release her combat power. Anyone would be unsatisfied.
The next moment, Yalina felt a sharp pain in her hand. The abyssal devil was slowly twisting her wrist backward, so much so that the back of her hand was almost touching his upper arm.
"Does it hurt now?" The abyssal devil was still laughing strangely. "If it hurts, why don't you shout?"
Yalina gritted her teeth. Her body was trembling slightly, but she didn't make any sound. She knew that Sunier and the others were fighting with the enemy. Meaningless shouts would only make her companions panic. She would rather die quietly than be a burden to others.
A trace of blood slowly seeped out from the corner of Yalina's mouth. Seeing that Yalina was not cooperating, the abyssal devil shook his head and sighed. "What a strong little girl. Haha … what a beautiful face, what delicate … little hands." As soon as he finished speaking, there was a slight sound of bones cracking, and the back of Yalina's hand finally touched her arm.
Yalina was in so much pain that she almost fainted, but she still tried to stare coldly at the devil.
"Okay …" Seeing that Yalina was not making a sound, the abyssal devil looked helpless. "Don't worry, I won't hurt you for the time being. When Raphael appears, we still have a lot of things to do. For now … you'd better rest."
Yalina's heart stopped beating at that moment. She understood how vicious the devil was. When Han Jin appeared, whether he hurt or humiliated her in front of Han Jin, it would be enough to make Han Jin panic. She also understood that Manteco's ultimate goal was Han Jin. Everything he had done before was to completely destroy Han Jin.
Yalina felt despair. It was a kind of despair that went deep into her bones, making it hard for her to breathe. She wanted to die, but death had become an extravagant wish for her. Suddenly, a spark of fire appeared in her heart and burned fiercely. The momentum of the flame was so fierce that it seemed like it would burn her body to ashes at any moment.
"I'm going to die …" Yalina slowly closed her eyes and murmured to herself.
"You won't die, I promise." The abyssal devil laughed. "Here, you can't use elements to self-destruct."
"But why … why do I feel like my blood is boiling …" Yalina's eyes reopened and regained their color. However, her expression was very strange, as if she had finally found relief after struggling her whole life, or as if she had finally achieved enlightenment after painstakingly trying to prove her Dao.
