"Director James... this... what exactly is this? This is not a natural phenomenon, is it created by extraordinary power? In this world, can there really be extraordinary power that can create such a terrible phenomenon?" On the other side of Turner, Elena, who was wearing a hunter uniform, was also shouting hard against the strong wind. As an apprentice of "Light", she was more certain that the phenomenon in front of her was the result of some extraordinary power, but she still felt unbelievable in her heart... She had never thought about what kind of extraordinary power in this world could reach such a destructive degree. The phenomenon in front of her could be said to be far beyond her understanding of the extraordinary.
"This is... storm force... storm force of this strength, is it a person with red... gold strength coming? Why would such a big shot appear here!?" Also standing on the roof, the director of the Igwinter Security Bureau said in amazement as James used his ability to reduce the impact of the strong wind on his side while looking into the distance. He was sure that the destructive force erupting in the distance belonged to the storm path he was in, but that destructive storm force was far beyond his limit.
Facing the powerful destructive force in the distance, James and his companions were terrified at the moment. At the same time, they were also curious about who created this power. Even more curious, who was fighting against this power? How could such a powerful being from their little Igwinter cause a conflict between them? Could it be that some high-ranking royal family had come here?
In front of this shocking storm of destruction, James and other extraordinary people who lived in seclusion in the local area were not much different from ordinary people; they were equally insignificant.
The howling giant storm lasted for quite a long time. When the storm gradually subsided, the spiral black clouds in the sky could not help but slowly dissipate. The moonlight above the clouds once again fell on the ground. What appeared under the moonlight was a desolate and desolate land.
Wherever the giant tornado had been, everything that had existed there, whether it was forests or rocks, had been completely wiped out, leaving only fine sand on the ground, which was the result of the surface rocks being crushed by the giant tornado crusher. The tornado just now directly scraped off a layer of the thick ground and broke it into a desert.
Under the moonlight, the vast desert that shouldn't exist in the Putian climate was sparkling with sparkling crystal lights. In the center of the desert, Anna was standing there with a spear in her hand, looking around. She didn't see any trace of Atcheri at first glance, but she still didn't let her guard down.
Dorothy knew that although the destructive whirlwind Anna had just created was almost beyond the normal power, it was not powerful enough to eliminate the golden saint of Mount Saint. Dorothy only expected to force him back. He hoped that after witnessing this power, Atcheri would give up the pursuit for the time being for the sake of the damage, or buy time for Anna to avoid it.
After not seeing Atchley at first glance, Dorothy thought that Atchley might have retreated into the distance, so she immediately asked Anna to prepare to evacuate. But just as Anna was about to leave, the situation on the scene changed again.
Shadows, countless shadows, from the projections of the sand dunes on the ground under the moonlight, suddenly countless phantom shadows emerged, phantom shadows without substance!
Generally speaking, shadows rely on entities to exist, but these that emerged from the sand dune projections are just simple shadows, and there is no entity to correspond to them.
These shadows were like dark fish, swimming at high speed on the desert ground. After surrounding Anna in the center of the desert, they rushed towards her from all directions.
Facing the countless swimming shadows coming from all directions, Anna took action immediately, waving the spear in her hand, creating many wind blades to slash at the high-speed swimming shadows on the sand. However, when these spiritual wind blades attacked the ghost shadows swimming on the ground, the ghost shadows were not affected at all. The high-speed and powerful wind blades only plowed deep gashes on the ground one after another, and did not cause the slightest effect on those ghost shadows, as if the attack really hit the real shadows, without any effect.
Faced with this situation, Dorothy couldn't help but slightly widen her eyes in disbelief. You know, although the illusory spirit body and the elemental body of the red elementalist are immune to many kinds of physical attacks, they will almost be hurt when facing spiritual attacks that are full of spirituality. But here, the shadow incarnated by Atchery is completely immune to spiritual attacks, just like a real shadow that cannot be hurt.
Faced with this situation, Dorothy's mind was rapidly thinking about the cause of the current situation. Atcherie would not wait for Dorothy to analyze the truth about her transformation into a shadow. The countless shadow fish on the sand that she controlled swam rapidly towards Anna's direction.
Facing the shadows coming from all directions and being completely unstoppable, Anna directly took off into the sky to escape from the encirclement of these creature-like shadows. Although these shadows looked extremely strange without projection entities, they could only move on the surface of matter and could only move close to the ground. In the absence of a medium, they could not chase the target in the air.
By taking off quickly, Anna got rid of the shadows on the ground. However, these shadows did not give up chasing after losing their target. Instead, they turned around and chased to another location.
This time, what these shadows were chasing was not Anna's physical body in the sky, but the projection of Anna in the air cast by the moonlight!
Although Anna was flying, her shadow was still on the ground! It was impossible for her shadow to fly with her real body, so it could only be left on the ground. Moreover, it was getting farther and farther away from Anna in the sky, and Anna's real body could not take care of the shadow left on the ground for a while!
After approaching Anna's projection on the ground, the fish-like shadows gathered and directly gathered into three human-shaped shadows, which were the outer silhouettes of the three Atcheris! Atcheris, who existed completely in the form of shadows, rushed towards Anna's projection, swung the shadow sword in her hand, and slashed at the opponent. Anna felt uneasy for a moment, and immediately adjusted the position of her projection on the ground by flying in the sky at high speed, and directly moved the projection position a distance.
By dodging, Anna's shadow avoided most of the attacks from Atcheri's three shadows, but in the end, a sword still slashed Anna's projection's waist. Suddenly, the armor on Anna's waist in the sky suddenly broke, and blood spurted out! Anna couldn't help but frowned in pain.
Atcherie's shadow incarnation can attack the monster itself by attacking the monster's projection!
After a successful attack, Atliche's shadow incarnation regrouped and slashed at Anna's projection again. Faced with this almost undefendable attack, Anna calmed down, and then, under Dorothy's guidance, swung the spear in the air.
As Anna waved her sword, an extremely strong wind suddenly blew up from the ground, blowing up all the fine sand on the ground in one breath, creating a huge dust storm in the environment. The thick dust storm completely covered the entire battlefield, including Anna herself, and the entire environment suddenly became dark and gloomy.
The appearance of the sandstorm blocked the moonlight in the sky. The moonlight could hardly shine through the thick sand and dust, causing her shadow on the ground to completely disappear. As long as she was not exposed to the correct light, the shadow would not appear. Anna used the sand to block the moonlight, causing her projection to completely disappear in an instant.
After clearing her own projection, what Anna faced at this moment was the thick dust and fog around her. At this moment, Anna suddenly felt that the sand and dust on one side had moved strangely. She immediately turned around and raised her spear in the direction where the movement came from.
"when!"
The next moment, a crisp sound of weapons striking was heard, and Atcherie's physical body appeared in front of Anna. The long sword in her hand directly hit Anna's spear. At this moment, there was a subtle orange halo shining in her cold eyes.
At this moment, Atcherie chose to transform from a shadow into a physical body, and used her powerful "light" vision to see through the thick sand and dust, and attacked Anna's position. Although Anna's "shadow" passive could block extraordinary detection, it could not make her physical body invisible. There was nothing she could do when being seen directly at such a close distance.
After approaching Anna and clashing with her weapon, Atchley immediately raised the pistol in her other hand and shot at Anna at close range. Suddenly, an extremely dazzling light shot out from the muzzle. Anna, who had seen Atchley's actions, turned her head to avoid the incoming beam with early warning.
However, even though Anna dodged the beam, the strong light from Atchery's gun still did not disappear. At a very close distance, the non-aggressive light emitted from the gun muzzle as a light source had strong penetrating power. These penetrating lights shone on Anna's body, casting a huge shadow in the dust behind her! When the light source was close enough and strong enough, even the thickest dust could not stop it!
When the moonlight could not shine through due to the dust, Atcherie chose to materialize herself and sent a strong light source in front of Anna, forcibly creating a projection!
At the moment when Anna's projection was created again, Atchelli's other two shadow incarnations appeared again. They appeared in the dust behind Anna, holding shadow blades and rushing towards Anna's projection. However, Anna was being restrained by Atchelli's physical body and could not take care of her own shadow at all!
At this critical moment, Anna quickly made a declaration.
"In the name of Field...expel all outsiders from our territory!"
At the moment when Anna finished her declaration, the shadow incarnation of Atcheri, which was originally in the dust, suddenly disappeared in an instant! Seeing this scene, Atcheri couldn't help but widen her eyes in surprise.
Dorothy began to think about the nature of Atchilli's shadow incarnation the moment the other party's ability was revealed. In the real world, there are many kinds of illusory bodies and elemental bodies that are not vulnerable to physical attacks, but this is the first time Dorothy has seen a shadow incarnation like Atchilli that is not vulnerable to spiritual attacks. Since then, she has been studying what the essence of this shadow incarnation is during the battle?
Finally, Dorothy got inspiration from the pseudomoth that could travel between the real world and the dream world and avoid attacks by crossing the realms. She thought that Atcherie's shadow incarnation might be a kind of magical world involvement. On the magical side of the world, there might be a magical world related to shadows, and she could escape into it to avoid attacks from the real world, just like the pseudomoth. The shadow was just a manifestation of this magical world in the real world.
In this "shadow" world, Atcherie can also use shadows to attack shadows and cause damage to entities in the real world, just like when a person in the real world is harmed by a dream cocoon in the dream world, the person in the real world will also be affected.
After speculating that Atcheri's shadow incarnation might have originated from some kind of otherworldly involvement, Dorothy asked Anna to activate another ability of her Heroic Spirit Armament, the de jure territorial domination!
Anna is Viscount Field, and Igwinter is the Viscount of the Field people. Legally, the entire Igwinter area is Anna's legal territory. By fighting in her own legal territory, Anna can not only gain more combat power, but also, with the support of the divine power of the Judge of Heaven, directly conduct some law-based operations in the territory itself as a lord, such as the expulsion just now.
The order of expulsion is used by lords and nobles to expel unwelcome people. Although this order has no effect on Atcherie, a saint, it has an immediate effect on the shadow incarnations that do not belong to the real world. This is because they neither belong to Viscount Field's territory nor to the entire real world itself. The dual legal powers can be combined at this moment to expel them.
After successfully expelling Atchley's shadow incarnation, Anna, who was holding a spear, looked condensed and became more serious. She pushed Atchley in front of her away with both hands, and then rushed forward with the spear. Seeing this, Atchley also responded with a spear and sword in hand.
In the thick dust, Anna and Atcherie started a close combat. At a high speed that could not be captured by the naked eye, all kinds of afterimages flashed, and the crisp and intensive sound of fighting was endless.
"They... are able to isolate themselves from the outside world. It seems that if we want to really catch them, we need to use all our strength..."
In the high-speed close combat, Atcheri had these serious thoughts in her mind. In order to deal with the difficult enemy in front of her, she now planned to use her strength further.
"May the Saint protect me..."
In another round of prayer, Atcherie was ready to further release her power. At this moment, Dorothy in the distance couldn't help but feel excited.
“Here I come…”
Dorothy, who was at the top of the mountain at this moment, looked to her side. There, a silvery and ethereal illusory woman was hanging in the air, staring blankly into the distance. This was none other than the fairy body of the lake that Dorothy had summoned just now!
When Dorothy first liberated her power in Atchery, she sensed an incredible manifestation through her ring, that is, in this area, the connection power of the Mirror Moon Goddess was actually strengthened!
Although she didn't quite understand the principle, Dorothy was certain that Atcheri's power was inextricably linked to the Mirror Moon Goddess. When she liberated her own power, the connection with the Mirror Moon Goddess in this area would be strengthened!
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
After realizing this, Dorothy immediately summoned the body of the Fairy of the Lake and began to strengthen her connection with the Mirror Moon Goddess. Then Dorothy began to assist in the battle while waiting to see whether Atcheri could further strengthen her connection with the Mirror Moon Goddess on the distant battlefield.
If the connection is strong enough, maybe the will of the Goddess Mirror Moon can be summoned again. On the one hand, it may be able to resolve this dispute, and on the other hand, she can communicate with herself!
Dorothy's wait was not in vain. Now on the battlefield, Atcherie had begun to further release her strength, and the connection power of the Mirror Moon Goddess had further begun to strengthen. At this moment, Dorothy began to pay attention to the reaction of the fairy body in the lake beside her.
Sure enough, the Lady of the Lake began to change, but not the changes Dorothy had seen before.
At this moment, the body of the fairy in the lake did not become lively and energetic as it did before in the Mirror Moon Church, supported by the will of Mirror Moon. Instead, it began to flicker and become more confused and fluctuating. The whole body was as unstable as a broken TV screen.
“What… is going on?”
Seeing this scene, Dorothy could not help but frowning in doubt. Just as she was about to find the original source, the flickering fairy in the lake began to undergo frightening changes.
After a burst of high-speed flashes, the originally quiet and beautiful head of the fairy in the lake disappeared, and a terrifying spider-shaped figure replaced it. The eight terrifying eyes on it stared silently at Dorothy in front of it.
