"Setut! That guy is much more difficult than we thought. The previous plan has failed. What should we do now?!"
Shadi asked Setut in his body directly. They knew Mukhtar's ability, so their plan was to launch a joint raid when Mukhtar was careless, using continuous combos to beat Mukhtar so that he lost his ability to speak or had no time to recite the commandments. However, the unexpected situation was that Mukhtar did not need to actually speak for the commandments, but could recite them with the language of the soul alone. Ordinary people could not detect it and the recitation speed was extremely fast. It was impossible to stop him from reciting.
"Hey... your previous plan underestimated the guy in the Creation Stage. That old madman can't even chant with his soul. He usually pretends to use his abilities in front of you and recites them openly just to guard against this move of yours. You can say that he has been on guard against you from the very beginning. You still think that you can defeat him with just the little information you have. This is really naive."
Inside Shadi's body, Setut spoke with a hint of sarcasm. After hearing Setut's words, Shadi quickly responded.
"We took it for granted... We didn't expect that old guy Mukhtar would have such a trick up his sleeve. But now is not the time to pursue anything. The most urgent thing is how to deal with that guy. Setut, do you have any ideas?"
"It's not that there is no way. Just like before, I need to synchronize your soul and let you release some of my creative abilities. This will take some time to prepare. I hope that the sword dance nun can hold on until then... I didn't expect that this little girl who looks like a vase can actually fight so well..."
Setut answered like this in Shadi's heart. Hearing that Setut was not without a way to deal with it, Shadi breathed a sigh of relief. Then he looked at the fierce battlefield in front of him. Seeing Vanya struggling to hold on, anxiety arose again in his heart, and he wondered whether she could hold on until that time.
At this time, Setut was not the only one who was filled with anxiety. In a hidden space in the distant Temple of Qiwen, Dorothy was sitting there, watching the battle scene in the distance with a worried look on her face.
The scene inside the hidden space of the temple at this time is very different from that at the beginning. The words floating everywhere have disappeared, and the surrounding walls are covered with densely packed lightning-like light patterns. In the center of the hidden space, the divine pattern belonging to the Judge of Heaven is emitting a strange glow, and tiny traces of electric current are constantly jumping on it.
Dorothy has not come out since entering the hidden space of the temple yesterday. In order to fight against Mukhtar and his savior followers entrenched in Addis, Dorothy activated the temple's built-in city defense system, which was once the ancient capital of the First Dynasty seven thousand years ago. Dorothy discovered the existence of this defense system when she was reading the introduction to the temple. Later, with the help of the search tool in the temple, she found how to access this system.
This city defense system can only be operated by extraordinary people with the ability of Howling Path. Its effect is to use the spirituality previously stored in the temple to create thunderclouds within a radius of more than 50 kilometers centered on the Qiwen Temple, and increase the range of the thunder magic ability release of the operating system to the same range, and give every corner within the range a high-altitude perspective looking down from the sky.
That is to say, now with the support of this system, Dorothy has included the entire Addis and even the surrounding areas within the range of her ability release. She can use the power of lightning anywhere in this range, and the spiritual energy consumed is reserved by the temple itself, without Dorothy having to pay for it personally. At this time, the temple's spiritual energy reserves are very rich, enough to fight a war.
It can be said that this is an extraordinary auxiliary system specially customized for extraordinary people of the Howling Path, but the stronger the thunder magic used, the stronger its ability will be. Unfortunately, Dorothy is only at the Cretaceous level now, and there is an upper limit to the function of this system. Although she can strike the whole city with thunder, the upper limit of the thunder power is still limited to the Cretaceous level and cannot reach higher. This is why she failed to kill Mukhtar with a single thunder.
With this powerful city defense system and unlimited lightning strikes within a radius of 50 kilometers and the ability to activate the entire map, Dorothy thought that this was a sure thing, and she should be able to win even against a Red Stage Beyonder. However, the situation now seems to be beyond Dorothy's expectations, as the Red Stage Beyonders of the Path of Bitterness are more ruthless than she expected.
According to the information obtained from Shadi at that time, the extraordinary branch where Mukhtar was located was called the Path of Holy Death in the Church of the Holy Mount, and was called the Path of Asceticism outside the church. It was a branch of the "Lamp" path that was mainly "Lamp" and auxiliary "Silence", and the Chichengjie where Mukhtar was located was called the Master of Asceticism.
Extraordinary people on the path of asceticism rely on strict adherence to precepts and asceticism to sharpen their hearts, so as to achieve extraordinary effects of self-discipline, discipline of others, and discipline of enemies. It is said that extraordinary people on the Black Soil Stage can use their abilities to strictly abide by certain precepts so that they are not affected by the outside world. When they reach the Cretaceous Stage, they can spread these precepts to those who are willing to receive the precepts along the way. When they reach the Red Formation Stage, they can impose the precepts on their enemies, making them suffer from various constraints.
This was an ability that made Dorothy feel disgusted when she first heard about it, but she didn't expect it to be so disgusting.
'Giving others a ring, giving yourself ten times the anti-armor... Not only that, you can only fight him and can't run away or dodge... What's even more amazing is that you yourself have a super blood cow thanks to the passive effect of your body soul. Not only is your blood high, but you can't kill him by attacking his vital parts... Sneak attacks are useless... and you can't stop the reading...
'Ten times armor, forced taunt control, attacks cannot be dodged, high health, immune to critical hits, invalid executions, skill readings cannot be interrupted... What kind of game is this boss that can disgust people to death? This will definitely be scolded to death... This is a real shit monster!'
Peeping at the battle scene in the palace garden in the distance, Dorothy couldn't help but think in her heart. After understanding the effect of Mukhtar's discipline, she didn't know what to do for a moment. She was not sure whether the anti-injury effect would also work on herself. She was afraid that if she struck Mukhtar with a thunder now, Mukhtar would not die because of his thick blood.
'No... this commandment is too confusing. We don't know how big the effective range is, how strong it is, and how many specific rules it has. It's impossible to fight without knowing the information.
"If you want to find a way to break his rules, you must first understand the mechanism of his rules..."
Dorothy thought so in her heart, and then she gave up the idea of taking the risk to kill Mukhtar directly, and instead went to verify Mukhtar's discipline mechanism, and this verification required his ability in the Path of Spiritual Silk.
Thinking of this, Dorothy continued to use the bird's-eye view provided by the city defense system to look at other parts of the palace and the battlefield where fierce fighting was taking place. She then extended her invisible spiritual threads, controlled the bodies that had died on the ground, and picked up the weapons she had used in her lifetime.
