Chapter 408: Chapter 408

"But how could she have so much money to buy resources! Isn’t it you who gave them to her?"

Lin Rui remained unmoved, calmly saying, "Her battle achievements are enough. Up to now, besides Su Xi, who else dares say they’ve surpassed her in terms of battle achievements? The rewards given to her still aren’t enough to honor her meritorious service."

As he spoke, Lin Rui glanced at Hanna, clearly indicating that the woman bearing the burden lately had shifted from Su Xi to her.

Otherwise, how could Audrey suddenly have a stroke of luck, pulling out a powerful catastrophe-level contract entity?

It simply couldn’t be that he left a significant amount of fortunate aura inside her.

After calming Hanna for a moment, the battlefield had already undergone a drastic shift in the situation.

Thousands of Earth Goblins Raider Cavalry were shattered, the remnants of their army fleeing in disarray to the distance.

Yet amidst the mountains of corpses and seas of blood, the battle remained intensely fierce.

Hanna giggled madly, gloatingly rocking back and forth with laughter: "Hahaha! Hahaha! This blockhead woman has met her retribution, hasn’t she? I said she couldn’t control such powerful units! As soon as the Dragon Blood Knights appeared, they began madly slaughtering all creatures before them. Once the Earth Goblins Raider broke apart, they even started fighting against this blockhead woman’s army."

The three catastrophe-level Dragon Blood Knights, out of control, were embroiled in a slaughter with the over ten thousand troops under Audrey; it was nothing short of a disaster.

The Dragon Blood Knights were simply not subject to Audrey’s soul control, even attempting to overturn the situation by making Audrey their servant.

Su Xi drew her longsword, preparing to advance.

But Audrey’s frosty voice rang out: "Don’t come over; their souls are defiant and need to be suppressed by my strength."

Su Xi paused, looking towards Lin Rui.

Lin Rui nodded, his face solemn: "Listen to her. It’s been a while since I’ve seen her this frosty and murderous."

This blockhead girl Audrey is often thoughtless only in front of Lin Rui. In fact, she consistently carries this elegant, frosty, almost goddess-like demeanor. Once, when she advanced in ranks, she left all the knights in the territory in awe.

In battle, especially when Lin Rui wasn’t by her side, her combat wisdom and frosty determination were exceptional, even dazzlingly brilliant.

Now, with a frosty aura, standing sternly on the battlefield, she pointed forward as a dense army of undead rushed fanatically towards the three Blood Dragon Knights.

On the helmets of the three Blood Dragon Knights, a black-and-red Other Shore Flower Mark with a golden edge bloomed.

With this mark’s blessing, the undead were utterly berserk and unstoppable. They ignored any damage, crazily advancing, wielding blades and swords against the Blood Dragon Knights.

Twelve Dark Temple Warriors, along with elite Masters of Swordsmanship like Silver Moon and Snow White, wielded their blades with a frosty gleam, constantly clashing with the greatswords of the Blood Dragon Knights.

Hei Qi, bringing along a dozen necromancers and Necromancers, relentlessly bombarded the Blood Dragon Knights, various Arcane Missiles tearing through the dense air above the battlefield, hitting the besieged Blood Dragon Knights repeatedly.

"Hiss~" Hanna took a deep breath.

The situation was extremely unfavorable!

This woman’s strength somewhat exceeded imagination!

She hadn’t even exerted her full power yet, yet her displayed strength was already top-tier among catastrophe-level soldiers!

She, a single catastrophe-level unit, was overpowering three Blood Dragon Knights!

Indeed, up to this point, she still couldn’t kill the Blood Dragon Knights.

But the problem was, the Blood Dragon Knights also couldn’t do anything against her!

Moreover, not even three Blood Dragon Knights combined could manage to do anything to her.

The dense Sea of the Dead completely held the Blood Dragon Knights at bay. The battle between them entirely devolved into a war of attrition.

This alone was quite unfavorable.

In a typical battle of the same rank, two strong adversaries would battle for a long time, unable to decide the victory. Only then could it be said that two different Tier Four troop strengths were roughly equal.

But now she was suppressing three of the same level of catastrophe with ease; clearly, her strength was significantly above normal!

Watching the fierce battlefield, Lin Rui couldn’t help but praise: "The blockhead girl of the past can now stand on her own."

Su Xi, holding her longsword at his side, said, "Her current strength is almost nearing that of epic-level. Without forcing out [Fearless Brave], even Tier Four Su Ye might not be able to conclude the fight in the Sea of the Dead."

"So strong already?" To know a catastrophe-level unit going against an epic-level unit, yet forcing the epic-level one to rely on injury-induced bursts to conclude the fight, was already quite outrageous. Even if Audrey had a few more life-saving items concealed in her predetermined dark battlefield, maybe Su Ye might have fallen."

Su Xi nodded: "Talent isn’t everything; the battleground, combat experience, and combat wisdom can all influence the battle outcome. Audrey is nearing epic level, very possibly Create Miracles. Are you prepared for her epic-level advancement tool?"

Lin Rui smiled and sighed: "I didn’t expect her to grow so fast. There’s no time to prepare the Tool for her advancement to Tier Five."

Hanna snorted: "Bias! Still preparing for her epic-level advancement tool at Tier Five. Isn’t she this strong because of the strategic tools you, Lord, gave her?"

Just as she finished speaking, as if attuned, Audrey on the battlefield, dissatisfied with the current stalemate, began casting [Dark Energy Prayer].

Vast dark spiritual energy gathered above the battlefield, the dense energy seemingly condensing into substantial clouds, swirling down like a vortex from above.

Visibly, every undead under her command now had complex spiritual energy patterns appearing on their bodies, their strength significantly escalating.

Previously, an undead could be cleaved apart by the Blood Dragon Knights with a single strike. Now, they could endure a strike, and even when split nearly in half from shoulder to chest, the undead, if not fallen, continued pouring out frenzy against the Blood Knights. And now, their blades and claws could leave deep marks on the Blood Knights’ crimson armor.

Hanna curled her lips, unwilling to comment anymore.

This woman’s divine skill truly was enough to shift battlefields.

The increasingly powerful undead surrounded the Blood Dragon Knights with frenzy, with each attack growing sharper and never diminishing!

Soon, five minutes later, the dense undead attacks had reached a transformation, sufficiently breaking through the Blood Dragon Knights’ physical defenses. Eight minutes later, the dense attacks were now overwhelming.

Even the Blood Dragon Knights couldn’t withstand the violent output from the undead now; the first Blood Dragon Knight fell.

Seventeen seconds later, the second Blood Dragon Knight fell.

Thirty seconds later, the final Blood Dragon Knight fell.

Audrey, showing no mercy, raised her hand and summoned the three Blood Dragon Knights once more.

Hanna bit her lip, letting out a nasal snort: "That woman has no shame, merely guarding corpses while pouring salt on the wound."

At this point, Audrey’s Spiritual Energy Value was almost depleted.

But she was absolutely composed, taking a potion from her Space Ring and tilting her fair neck back to drink it down, her Spiritual Energy Value suddenly restored by 15%! This meant that [Dark Energy Prayer] could still intensify by 15%.

Twenty seconds later, the three Blood Dragon Knights fell again.

With a chilling aura, Audrey once more brought the three Blood Dragon Knights out.

Hanna couldn’t bother watching anymore, turning to scan the battlefield, asking, "Lord, why do you think the earth goblins suddenly attacked us? Was it really because Audrey was slaughtering here madly?"

Lin Rui, knowing she wanted to change the topic, didn’t expose her, gazing into the distance in thought: "It shouldn’t be that simple. From the battle style shown by Earth Goblins Raider, they possess great battle wisdom. They wouldn’t just charge at us for a bout. Moreover, they still haven’t succeeded."

"Right, isn’t this akin to giving us free points?" Hanna immediately nodded: "I feel like they must have other schemes, just interrupted by us."

Just as her words trailed off, as if sanctioned by Lin Rui, the battlefield dramatically shifted; the situation had already transformed drastically.

Three thousand Earth Goblins Raiders were chopped into pieces, with the ragged survivors fleeing into the distance.

Yet amidst the mountain of corpses and sea of blood, the battle remained fierce.

Hanna laughed so hard that her body seemed to shake, her mirth laced with schadenfreude: "Hahaha! Hahaha! This stupid woman, getting her payback, huh? I told you she couldn’t control such a powerful troop! As soon as the Dragon Blood Knights showed up, they started slaughtering all creatures before them. When they shattered the Earth Goblins Raiders, they began to attack this silly girl’s army."

The three Catastrophe-level Dragon Blood Knights were out of control, entangled with Audrey’s over ten-thousand strong Undead Army, turning it into a complete disaster.

The Dragon Blood Knights were not under Audrey’s soul control at all, even wanting to take over and make Audrey their servant.

Su Xi drew her longsword, ready to step forward.

But Audrey’s frosty voice came: "No need to come over, their souls are defiant, I need to subdue them myself with strength."

Su Xi paused in her steps and looked at Lin Rui.

Lin Rui nodded, with a solemn expression: "Listen to her. It’s been a while since I’ve seen her so frosty and deadly."

This daft girl Audrey would often act without thinking in front of Lin Rui, though in reality, she consistently exuded an aura of elegance and a frosty deadliness akin to a goddess. Her advancement used to astonish all the knights in the realm.

In battles, especially without Lin Rui by her side, her combat wisdom and icy lethal nature had always been outstanding, remarkably brilliant even.

Now, with her icy demeanor, she stood firm on the battlefield, pointed forward, prompting tens of thousands of frenzied undead to charge at the three Blood Dragon Knights.

The golden-rimmed black-red Other Shore Flower Mark bloomed on the helmets of the three Blood Dragon Knights.

Empowered with this mark, the undead were entirely uncontrollable in their frenzy. They ignored any harm, relentlessly surging forward, bringing down blades and swords upon the Blood Dragon Knights.

Twelve Dark Temple Warriors, along with Silver Moon, Snow White, and other elite Masters of Swordsmanship wielded their weapons with frosty brilliance, clashing swords with the giant swords of the Blood Dragon Knights.

Hei Qi, leading over a dozen Witch Demons and necromancers, unleashed a relentless onslaught upon the Blood Dragon Knights, with Arcane Missiles repeatedly slicing through the densely packed battlefield and striking the besieged Blood Dragon Knights.

"Hiss~" Hanna took a deep breath.

The situation was very dire!

The strength of this woman was a bit beyond imagination!

She hadn’t used all her strength yet, but the strength displayed already placed her among the top of the Catastrophe-level soldiers!

With just one Catastrophe-level unit, she overwhelmed three Blood Dragon Knights!

Indeed, as of now, she still couldn’t kill the Blood Dragon Knights.

But the problem was, the Blood Dragon Knights were utterly helpless against her!

And even with three Blood Dragon Knights together, they were unable to do anything against her.

The densely packed Sea of the Dead completely stalled the Blood Dragon Knights’ advance. This had pushed their battle entirely into a war of attrition.

This alone was very ominous.

In usual same-tier battles, two formidable entities would fight evenly for a long time. Only then could it be said that the strength of two different Tier Four types is roughly comparable.

But now she was suppressing three same-level Catastrophe-level entities, clearly her strength had vastly exceeded the standard!

Watching the intense battlefield, Lin Rui couldn’t help but praise: "The blockhead girl of the past, she can now stand on her own."

Su Xi, holding a longsword, stayed by his side, saying: "Her strength now is almost near Epic-level. If we don’t force out [Fearless Brave], even Tier Four Su Ye might be unable to execute in the Sea of the Dead." For more chapters visıt novel~fire~net

"Has she really become that strong?" It’s known that for a Catastrophe-level unit to fight an Epic-level adversary, and push that Epic-level to rely on a last-resort move for a fatal blow, is already quite astounding. Perhaps if Audrey had a few more life-saving tools hidden in her pre-set dark battlefield, Su Ye might also meet his end.

Su Xi nodded: "Talent doesn’t represent everything; the battlefield, combat experience, and combat wisdom all potentially affect the outcome. Audrey is already approaching Epic-level and is quite likely to create miracles. Are you prepared for the item she’ll need to advance to Epic-level?"

Lin Rui smiled with a sigh: "I didn’t expect her to grow so fast. I haven’t had time to prepare the item for her to advance to Tier Five."

Hanna snorted coldly: "Biased! You’re still preparing things for her to advance to Epic-level when she’s already this strong just because, Lord, you gave her several strategic items!"
