Crescent Knight had a very faint impression of this person; he must have seen him when looking through the kill list.
But the opponent's ranking wasn't high, and I could only barely remember their name.
Linda, the eye of truth.
Scenes of the attack on the Dark Shadow flashed before the Crescent Knight's eyes.
Those images were broken down into millions of parts, and through meticulous analysis, the truth was finally discovered.
Just as her spear was about to pierce through the dark shadow, the opponent vanished briefly, and she passed right through due to her excessive speed.
A mere instant later, Linda, the Eye of Truth, appeared.
"The Dark Shadow and Linda are the same person!"
The Crescent Knight thought to himself in surprise.
On the other side, Linda was drenched in sweat, her hands trembling with excitement.
His maneuver appeared to be thrilling but was actually quite extreme.
Switching back to your original form too early or too late could result in being pierced by the Crescent Knight's spear.
The theory behind this operation is based on the invincibility frames of the "character switching" function in game systems.
Characters with dual forms will briefly disappear from the screen when switching between them, which can be surprisingly effective when tackling difficult bosses.
In the game, Linda was able to use this technique skillfully, but this was the first time she had used it in real life.
He wasn't even sure if the invincibility frame still existed.
Even if it exists, whether it can capture that fleeting moment is unknown.
A combination of mindset, skill, and luck allowed him to successfully dodge the Crescent Knight's fatal blow.
Before they could catch their breath, an even stronger killing intent came from below.
The Crescent Knight's face was icy cold, and he soared into the sky like a roc, his spear once again aimed at himself.
Bang!
Linda suddenly bumped into a soft bosom.
A faint fragrance wafted from his nose, and his cheeks felt as if they were made of cotton.
Startled, she looked up to see Evelyn's cool profile. Evelyn held her with her left arm and a sword in her right, her silver eyelashes fluttering in the wind, her tightly pressed red lips suppressing her anger.
The dragon followed closely behind, and only breathed a sigh of relief when it saw that he was alright.
Evelyn held him, dodging the attacks of the Crescent Knights, and said coldly, "I should have tied you up in the palace from the beginning and watched you cultivate day and night. That way, we would both be legends, and Bloodflame Duke and the others would never have had a chance to betray us."
Linda coughed lightly, turned her head to the side to avoid touching the object, and sighed, "But I always thought you were the traitor."
Evelyn repelled the Crescent Knight with a single sword strike, then unleashed over a hundred ice spikes. The Crescent Knight dodged scramblingly, but was still struck by one, flying out like a cannonball and crashing into the ground.
As they pursued downwards, Evelyn pondered, "So that's why you concealed your identity? Judging from the outcome, your approach was indeed correct; even I didn't expect the Bloodflame Clan to betray us."
The Demon King's castle never fully trusted me. If I bring you to the capital, you might not even see the sun rise tomorrow.
—She attempted to infiltrate the Demon King's castle using the illusionary abilities of the Cold Moon Law, but this plan was likely to be seen through by the angel who was the leader of the Four Heavenly Kings.
The surprise attack on the capital was conspicuously absent from his presence, this "legendary demon," and the Crescent Knight was specially dispatched to oversee it.
"Evelyn".
Linda hesitated for a moment before speaking, "I'm not Dai Lian, I'm Linda. Have I disappointed you?"
As a gamer, Linda naturally hopes that the characters in the game like her, rather than the game characters she controls.
Evelyn did not answer, but instead thrust her sword into the Crescent Knight in the crater.
Ice crystals spread for kilometers, freezing the earth.
Crescent Knight gritted his teeth and broke free from her battle aura lock, flying into the air once more.
Evelyn glanced up at her sister, whose figure was elusive, then placed Linda on the ground and handed her to the dragon.
She soared into the sky, her longsword casting frost-white moonlight within the azure barrier, her back view lonely and aloof, saying without turning her head:
"I don't care if you're Dale or Linda, dwarf or even goblin."
What I care about is you as a person.
Of all the adventurers in this mysterious continent, only you deserve to stay by my side.
Linda paused for a moment, and the distance between her and Evelyn seemed to be gradually disappearing.
Whether in a game or another world, Evelyn will always be that arrogant and unruly swordswoman.
He smiled helplessly and said, "You're too arrogant. There are always people more capable than you, and there's always something beyond your understanding. There are many powerful individuals on the Secret Realm Continent."
"But that doesn't change the fact that I am the number one swordsman on the continent."
Evelyn's gaze sharpened, and she said with murderous intent, "I will save the capital and eliminate all the demons."
Linda nodded: "My companions and I will also help you."
"Companion?" Evelyn couldn't help but stop and look at him in surprise.
I never expected to hear the word "comrade" from that cold and ruthless shadow.
It's like a goblin with a terrifying reproductive drive telling a girl that it will only marry her.
Evelyn didn't know whether she should laugh or not.
“Yes, companions.” Linda said earnestly, “Evelyn, I’ve changed. I don’t intend to fight alone anymore. My companions are trustworthy adventurers.”
The members of the Phoenix Flower team, the Snow Goose trio, Isa, and Abner, all have a chance to become legends.
Currently, the three dukes have rebelled, and their legendary subordinates have followed suit.
The Demon King's army has an overwhelming advantage in the number of legendary figures.
The Secret Realm Continent must increase its top-tier combat power as soon as possible.
The legendary rank is also divided into three, six, and nine grades.
Legends at levels 90-93 are newly promoted legends.
94~96, a veteran legend.
97 and above, top-tier legend.
Looking across the Mysterious Realm Continent and the Demon Realm Continent, there should be no more than five top-tier legends.
Evelyn, level 96, and Crescent Knight, level 95, are both extremely valuable combat assets.
Linda mounted the dragon, casting Azure Shield and Guardian Shield on herself. Her Eye of Truth form was much tankier than her Shadow form, and with Evelyn holding off the enemy in front, the risk was greatly reduced.
"Why did you follow me?" Evelyn asked, puzzled.
“You can kill the Crescent Knight yourself, but I want to capture her alive.” Linda stared straight ahead at the Crescent Knight, who was breathing heavily in the air.
He narrowed his eyes, a cold glint flashing in them.
Cutting down the Crescent Knight with a single blow would be too good for this witch.
He wanted the Crescent Knight to serve him like a slave in the fight against the Demon King's army.
Moreover
"Is she your older sister?"
“No, she’s just a demon now, I won’t go easy on her,” Evelyn said seriously.
"I have a way to restore the Crescent Knights."
Perhaps she was simply brainwashed by the Demon King's corrupting power, just like my sister.
My sister was originally sworn to serve the Demon King's castle to the death, but after my 'purification,' she has now reformed and fights alongside me.
"Purification?" Evelyn found it incredulous. "Can witches be purified?"
The capital city had long conducted countless studies on witches, spending enormous amounts of money and resources, but the result was always the same.
The witch's state is irreversible. Once she signs a contract with the Demon King, she is like an alchemical bomb with its fuse lit, rushing headlong towards the abyss of depravity.
