"It can purify."
Linda said with certainty.
“However, I need you to weaken the Crescent Knight to an extremely low level. After all, she is a legendary-rank witch, and I have no experience in purifying legendary-rank witches.”
Seeing the struggle in Evelyn's eyes, he softened his tone: "I know this is a bit of a stretch. Capturing a legendary-level being alive is several times more difficult than killing them."
However, you should know that I, the Shadow of Darkness, am true to myself and have never uttered a false statement.
I'm fifty percent confident I can purify the Crescent Knight. Whether you want to gamble or not is up to you.
"Fifty percent certain"
Evelyn bit her lip, looking somewhat conflicted.
He glanced at the Crescent Moon Knight in the sky, whose face was full of hatred for him, and thought to himself, "It would be better to just kill him with one sword."
Just as she was about to make a decision.
A childhood memory flashed through my mind.
"—Taff, here's a mouse for you to eat."
"Thank you, Xiaolin! I like you the most! Mmm, the mouse is so delicious!"
“.”
Those are memories from the slums.
The cowardly and incompetent Taff always needed her protection. After her parents died, she went to the junkyard to fight with other orphans for food, which filled their stomachs and prevented them from starving to death on the streets.
What touched Evelyn's heart was the blissful expression on Taff's face as she ate the dried rat.
That smile touched her and gave her a reason to live.
Without Tauf by her side to rely on, she certainly wouldn't have the motivation to go to the junkyard and compete for food with children older than her.
"Give it a try."
Evelyn sighed softly, her eyes dimming.
"I will do my best," Linda promised.
"Capture alive? Purify? Hah, laughable! Evelyn, don't be so arrogant!"
Hearing their conversation, the Crescent Moon Knight was enraged: "I, one of the Four Heavenly Kings of the Demon Clan and the former commander of the Imperial Knights, would rather die than be captured alive by you!"
"Shut up." Evelyn flew out in a flash, her longsword aimed straight at the Crescent Knight's throat.
During the battle, Evelyn summoned her Law Colossus, a snow-white nine-tailed fox.
It was smaller than the Hyotei Centaur, but it had the advantage of being able to use illusion magic. Its tail was wrapped into a heart shape, which immediately controlled the Centaur.
Taking this opportunity, Linda ordered the Heavenly Crippled Demon Ape to fully activate the Law of Destruction, regardless of the cost. After returning to normal, the Law Colossus did not appear and was able to maintain its form for a short period.
Then, a black sword light ten thousand meters high slashed towards the Hyotei centaur.
Overwhelmed by the fear of death, the centaur's handsome male face paled in horror: "Taph, save me!"
However, the Crescent Knight was already in a precarious situation, being weaker than Evelyn, and Linda was further harassing Evelyn with her Venom Orb and adding damage to her with her Vulnerability Aura.
Shields and healing spells were thrown at them like they were free.
After twenty minutes of fighting, the Crescent Knight was covered in wounds, his silver armor was shattered, and his snow-white thighs were exposed.
boom--
The black sword light struck the Hyotei centaur, slicing it in two.
The centaur let out a mournful cry and vanished in a pale white light.
Meanwhile, the injury information was relayed to the owner.
The Crescent Knight suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood and fell vertically to the ground like a bird with broken wings.
Evelyn leaped and shot at the Crescent Knight.
Linda thought Evelyn was being soft-hearted and was about to speak up to warn her, but she was shocked to see Evelyn kick the Crescent Knight in the stomach, making the latter's eyes widen and blood and acid spurt from his mouth at the same time.
Then, Evelyn swiftly stabbed the Crescent Knight in the limbs, leaving a bloody hole in each of his four arms.
Linda's eyelids twitched uncontrollably.
That wasn't all. Evelyn took out a long white snake-shaped piece of silk from her ring, which was probably some kind of magical item. She casually tossed it out, and the silk burrowed into the bloody holes in the Crescent Knight's limbs, binding him tightly.
"Evelyn, how dare you treat me like this!"
The intense pain and the humiliation of being captured drove the Crescent Knight to the brink of madness, as he roared, "His Majesty the Demon King will never let you go!"
Slap! Slap!
"Shout again and I'll kill you."
Evelyn slapped the Crescent Knight several times, swelling his face and knocking his cross-shaped mask to the ground, revealing a pitiful face filled with tears and grievance.
The two looked very similar, but the Crescent Knight was more dashing, while Evelyn was more demure.
"Still shouting?" Evelyn raised her sword, her face expressionless.
The Crescent Knight gritted his teeth, turned his head to one side, and remained silent.
Thus, the Hyotei centaur died, and the Crescent Knight was bound.
This legendary battle has finally come to an end.
The white snake silk seemed to have the effect of sealing battle aura. The dark blue barrier generated by the Crescent Knight's domain disappeared, and light returned to Azure City.
It was dusk, and the blood-red sunset cast its light upon the earth.
Linda rode the demonic dragon, looking down below.
The city of Cangqing is devastated. The central district has been completely destroyed, with terrifying craters everywhere. Flying to a higher altitude, one can see the entire city of Cangqing – with the central district as the center, the closer one gets to the interior, the more severe the damage becomes, with the very center being a complete wasteland.
Starting from the center, there are scattered ruins, while a few houses on the outskirts remain intact.
An hour ago, this was a bustling provincial metropolis where citizens lived in peace and contentment, and adventurers and merchants came and went in an endless stream.
Today, this great city that has stood for tens of thousands of years is a thing of the past.
Rebuilding Cangqing City will likely take decades.
Whether it can return to its former prosperity is anyone's guess.
Linda felt a deep sorrow.
