Xianti is really helping everyone delay the awakening of "Kurisa" in her own way, it is very noble, of course, it seems to be used to this kind of nobility.

Even to the extent that every time it comes out, it is not quite complete without "greatness" as the ending.

Philomina is still continuing to "sleep" with Kurisa. This summoned beast is very terrifying in terms of physical and magical defense, and the only weakness is probably in the mental domain.

But this is just a weakness, not a fatal flaw.

Disturbing it through mental power is possible, but it is almost impossible to kill it in this way.

This is a very formidable opponent. It is not as physically massive as Dorons, walking like a mountain crushing everything in its path; nor is it like Kompasini, using illusions to ravage and exile people in unexpected ways.

To some extent, it is "approachable", making you feel like you can deal with it, but in reality, you have no effective way to deal with it, and its scythe brings great harm every time it falls.

Including Alfred, the three seriously injured people were just one step away from being killed directly.

Counting Richard, who was luckily kicked away, it means that just now, Karun almost lost four of his subordinates.

It should be noted that after a trip in the tomb, the biggest consumption was Richard spraying a little blood, but in just a moment, the team almost lost nearly half of its members.

Karun's eyes gradually turned red. As the captain, he must come up with a solution quickly at this time.

The problem is, he has many means and abilities. He has been teased by Puerh before, saying that he is like a grocery store, but now, there is nothing that can be brought out at this time to change the situation.

"Ah..."

Eisley couldn't help but scream.

Xianti is the monster she summoned, and Xianti's existence requires her support. Originally, Xianti, which had very little consumption, is now being supported by Eisley to continue to exist while enduring the burning of these flames.

Karun came to Eisley's side, grabbed her hand, and found that there was a strange fire brewing in the palm of her hand, and this fire could actually be conducted in this way?

After receiving support from Karun's power, Eisley finally stabilized.

Xianti, who received a new round of power support, was not very excited, because it meant that it could not disappear and had to continue to endure.

...

On the other side, Muri was attacking Sains with Bart and Ventula, but Sains's speed was very fast. He never chose to take the initiative to attack. In a purely passive defense, the protective shield he triggered with each swing of his wand could give him extremely safe protection.

Muri's several attacks here did not have any effect, but were instead leisurely kited by the other party.

It's difficult to catch up with him. Once he finally catches up, he can't break through the opponent's protective shield in a short time. Once he breaks through, the opponent moves again.

He won't fight?

To read the uncut version, go to [pawread.com].

This is Muri's speculation. This person seems very powerful, but that's just what it seems. Some of his methods are indeed very unpredictable, but in fact, he still has very obvious flaws.

Otherwise, he would have no reason to avoid direct combat here and keep evading. He could completely bypass his three people and harass from behind, forcibly breaking Kurisa's "sleep".

Damn it!

Muri was very annoyed. He actually had the ability to unleash his full potential. He believed that Bart and Ventula by his side should also have it. By using a special method to exchange for a burst of power in a short time, forcibly grabbing the opponent or breaking the defense, but the problem is, there is no one to make up for the damage at the most appropriate and timely moment.

The two assault roles that should have been suitable for this should be the captain and Philomina.

The problem is that these two people are both involved over there. If one of them can come over now, the situation on his side could also have a chance to change.

At present, the only one in a free state is Blanche, who is currently treating Mas. But whether she has time or not, it is very difficult for a priest to influence the situation at this time.

Sains continued his dodging and evading. In fact, he was not as relaxed as he appeared on the surface.

Originally, he thought that Kurisa could easily deal with all the people on the opposite side, but now Kurisa has inexplicably fallen into a deep sleep, and he tried to use flames to awaken it, but the flames were actually absorbed.

This made him feel that the situation was somewhat critical. He could clearly sense that these three people wanted to defeat him, and several times, he had a premonition that these three people were accumulating power, but ultimately had to give up because of his timely distance.

This is a double tightrope walking performance, just to see who will fall first in the end.

Muri decided not to wait any longer. He was going to give it a try.

There was no need for communication. When he suddenly raised his breath, he knew that Ventula and Bart by his side could understand how to cooperate with him next.

But at this moment, Karun's voice came:

"Wait a minute!"

Muri stopped instantly and continued to engage in a meaningless chase game with the guy in front of him along with his two teammates.Karun spoke up to stop Muri, his right hand grabbing Aisley's hand to continue supplying her with soul power. Qian Mei appeared behind him to provide a pair of wings, allowing him to lift Aisley up and arrive above Philomena and Cressa.

Karun's left palm faced downward, and in an instant, the wind began to blow.

The airflow began to continuously surge from all around, converging beneath Karun.

It was undeniable that when the previous formation was broken by Cressa, all the formation masters in the team were seriously injured and fell to the ground, Karun was in a state of panic for a while.

This was a strong sense of unease caused by things getting out of his control and breaking his usual rhythm. But he had to force himself to calm down and quickly analyze the situation to come up with a plan, because now everyone was counting on him.

Now, he had come up with a plan.

The foundation of the "Black Prison Castle" was manifesting below.

In the world inside the Gate of Reincarnation, Karun had lost all the war equipment equipped with the "Black Prison Castle," and each piece of equipment was very expensive, and now it was impossible to make up for it.

So, the "Black Prison Castle" spell, which should have been temporarily stored in the innermost part of the warehouse, was not expected to have a chance to appear in the short term.

But now, it had value again.

Since Cressa's defense was so astonishing and other methods were ineffective, Karun decided not to think about how to destroy it temporarily, but to make it completely "quiet."

There was a way to trap it now, which Philomena was doing, but even if the unstable factors were removed, the cost was a bit high.

Karun planned to switch to a more secure and labor-saving method.

Below, the "Black Prison Castle" was being "built" layer by layer.

In the distance, Sains, who was still contending with Muri and the others, saw this scene, his eyes narrowed. He was not surprised by the appearance of the castle, but by the fact that the person was able to use this war spell with his own strength.

Especially, that person was also summoning and supplying power to the summoner next to him.

Finally, the "Black Prison Castle" was about to be completed.

Next, the most crucial operation.

Three chains of order extended from under Karun's feet, one entwining Philomena, one entwining Aisley, and the last one entwining Xianti.

The next moment,

The three chains of order were swung together.

Philomena, with her eyes closed, was thrown out of the castle, Aisley was thrown out from Karun's side, and Xianti above was pulled down by Karun with the chain, directly smashing towards Cressa, who had awakened from the "dream."

Xianti: "..."

"Boom!"

An explosion sounded, and Cressa, who had just awakened, was hit by the impact, feeling a little dazed, not knowing where she was at the moment.

It was during this short period of time that Karun successfully completed the sealing of the "Black Prison Castle," with no doors, no windows, and no steps.

In the central building, Cressa was on the first floor, and Karun was on the second floor.

Cressa, who had regained consciousness, instinctively wanted to leave this place. She raised her scythe and directly chopped at the wall in front of her.

"Bang!"

The wall protruded and fell, unable to withstand a second blow.

Karun also felt a tearing pain in his chest, blood constantly oozing from the corners of his mouth, but he still reached out and grabbed the black ball in front of him. The mark on the back of his hand emitted light, and a vine extended from the black ball, wrapping around Karun's wrist.

At this moment, a connection was established between Karun, the "Black Prison Castle," and the "Scythe of War."

The power of the "Scythe of War" was drawn down to help operate the castle.

The wall that was almost about to be broken was instantly restored, and Cressa continued to wave her scythe, but Karun now felt like someone was constantly beating him. Although still in pain, it was much more bearable than the first round.

Yes, he had turned the "Black Prison Castle," which had lost all its war equipment, into a prison!

He was the warden, specifically detaining a prisoner.

Philomena, who had been thrown out, opened her eyes before landing and landed steadily.

She looked at the castle in front of her, and then at Muri and the others behind her.

Without needing Karun to remind or instruct her, she immediately realized what she needed to do.

Cressa's previous inner circle breakthrough had disrupted everyone's composure, so now, the situation in front of her had to be resolved in the most direct way.

A family mark appeared on Philomena's forehead, her eyes began to turn white, and blood began to ooze from her body. This was a family taboo spell that unleashed her potential.

This spell was very dangerous, not because of its side effects, but because it was easy to overdraw in the "dream" due to indifference, ultimately leading to the death of the self in the dream.

"Hold him."

Philomena, who was speeding towards here, spoke coldly.

Muri let out a low growl, the shield expanded, and the short knife also lengthened. In an instant, a light was released from the shield, smashing directly into the ground.

A layer of black clouds appeared above, and with a bang, it fell.

Muri's short knife stabbed into the ground in front of him, and a beam of light pierced through the black clouds, falling towards Sains.

Sains instinctively tried to dodge, but as Muri raised his head and stared directly, the beam of light changed direction on its own, tracking and locking onto Sains.

A terrifying pressure hit, and Sains felt his body sink, and the rainproof cover on his body was rapidly disintegrating.Sains immediately raised his wand, preparing to cast a defensive spell, but Bart's eyes started to bleed, and he interlocked his fingers, saying in a deep voice:

"Bone imprisonment!"

*Crack!*

*Crack!*

A harsh friction sound echoed around, and then, ghostly white bone figures appeared, completing the second seal on Sains.

Sains, trapped in the locked space, immediately took out a gem from his chest and crushed it. Suddenly, a hot ball of light appeared above, surrounded by flames. Both the white bones and the dark clouds showed signs of melting at this moment.

"Roar!"

Wentura let out a roar, leaping up and crashing into the fireball, embracing it despite the burning sensation. Then, ignoring the burns on his body, he carried the fireball away.

Finally, Sains was completely sealed.

Felimina appeared at this moment, bypassing the dark clouds and avoiding the white bones, appearing in front of Sains.

She first punched forward, and Sains' clothes formed the last line of defense, protecting him.

Felimina's fist was blocked in front of Sains, but she didn't care. With a turn of her fist, the flesh on her right hand split open, extending all the way to her wrist, quickly turning her entire right hand into bone.

As a result, a gap appeared in the last line of defense in front of Sains. Felimina held a dagger in her left hand, channeling all her strength into the blade, including her own blood.

The dagger shone with a bloody light, and Felimina herself looked extremely haggard.

She pushed the dagger in, and with her last bit of strength, kicked Sains, flying backward while flicking her left hand upward.

*Splurt!*

The dagger pierced Sains' body, not penetrating through, but under Felimina's manipulation, it shot upward, directly bursting out of Sains' skull.

*Snap!*

The copper mask on Sains' face shattered, revealing an androgynous face, with purple hair.

Then, Sains' head exploded.

...

"Hiss... Ah..."

By the pool, a purple man held his head and let out a painful cry, tears and snot uncontrollably dripping.

Beside him, a woman in a yellow dress turned to look at him and asked, "Sains, what's wrong with you?"

"Your Excellency, my avatar has been destroyed."

"Did the mission fail?"

"Yes."

"You shouldn't answer so simply."

"Sorry, Your Excellency, my avatar failed to transmit his memories before dying. It's probably because his head was destroyed first."

"Oh, I see."

"Your Excellency, I suspect that the Order of the Divine Doctrine has already discovered our plan. In the area of Vayne, the only thing that can disrupt our operation..."

"So?" the woman asked.

"Will your visit be postponed?"

"It doesn't matter." The woman shook her head indifferently and casually plucked a bright red petal, chewing on it. A little red juice overflowed from the corner of her mouth. "What happens behind the scenes is trivial. Not only should we not delay, but we should also expedite the process. I think I should go to York City early to start the formal negotiations."

As if not satisfied, the woman plucked another petal and, before putting it in her mouth, asked:

"I remember the intelligence report said that the princess of the Darkmoon Island has also joined the Order of the Divine Doctrine?"

"Yes, the Order of the Divine Doctrine seems to be fond of absorbing young people from other forces to study and train there. The Reincarnation Sect has also sent many young people there this time."

"Send a message to the Order, I hope to meet the princess of the Darkmoon Island when I arrive in York City."

"Are you interested in her?"

The red dot on the crescent moon appeared again, indicating that someone had likely truly triggered the inheritance of the Darkmoon Goddess. This is a good supplement. I wonder who it could be."

"Do you suspect her?"

"It's possible. If the Order of the Divine Doctrine has used some special method to stimulate her bloodline, who knows."

"If you go in person, I need to apply to the Elder Council and request the Order of the Divine Doctrine to change their reception standards."

"Don't ask for any standards. The Order of the Divine Doctrine has just beaten the Reincarnation Sect and is currently proud. How could they possibly care about the moon."

Sains smiled as he wiped away his tears and snot with a handkerchief. "That's not necessarily true. The preliminary negotiation results indicate that the Order of the Divine Doctrine seems willing to modify the mythological narrative system, setting the relationship between the Moon Goddess and the God of Order as lovers."

Upon hearing this, the woman laughed. "Ankara won't be furious again?"

...

Below, the quietness settled in, and Kurisa had turned into a pool of blood. Without Sains' control, there was no reason for it to continue to exist.

*Cough...*

Karun coughed repeatedly, moving his hand and shaking off the blood on it.

With that, the Black Prison Castle dissipated, and Karun slowly landed on the ground.

He looked around and saw several people lying on the ground.

Well, although this battle didn't go as smoothly as he had hoped, at least almost everyone landed safely.

He began to doubt himself, doubting his command and leadership abilities. He hadn't had time to think about it before, but now his mind naturally began to wander. If Neo had commanded this battle, would it have turned out like this?After some thought, Karun recalled the first mission when he followed Neo's team to protect Ophelia. It was on a highway where Neo led the others in pursuit. By the time he and Vanni caught up, what they saw were wounded lying on the ground, one after another. At the dinner celebrating the mission's end, there seemed to be more people who would rather come in wheelchairs than walk.

Alright, after comparing himself with Neo, he found that the discomfort in his heart had lessened, and his sense of defeat had also diminished significantly.

Karun pursed his lips, raised his hand, and called out with a slightly hoarse voice:

"Roll call, if you're dead, raise your hand."
