Chapter 7034: Erosion
Plitvice Southwest, Igwent.
In Igwind under the cover of night, the horrific tornado that had just swept the earth had temporarily disappeared and stopped. Just as the whole city was slowly waking up from panic, a terrifying scene was taking place on a small hill in the far suburbs of the city.
During Anna's battle with Atwood, Dorothy discovered that with the release of Atwood's abilities, the connection between the local area and the Mirror Moon Goddess would be enhanced. Originally, she planned to use this phenomenon, combined with her own lake fairy body, to summon the will of the Mirror Moon Goddess. However, in the process of implementing this plan, an unexpected accident occurred.
Although the body of the lake fairy was summoned by Gong, it did change when Atole's abilities began to be further released, but this change was not what Dorothy expected.
When the illusory body of the Fairy of the Lake began to flicker unnaturally, she began to realize that something was wrong. When Dorothy wanted to remove the illusory body of the Fairy of the Lake immediately, she found that this illusory body was actually beginning to be out of her control, and in the process of losing control, the shape of the illusory body also underwent amazing changes.
'Spider Queen!'
Dorothy was shocked to see the head of the anecdote body she had created flashing and turning into a terrifying spider. She thought to herself, the body of a beautiful woman with a terrifying spider head, this combination she had seen before... in the blasphemous ritual field of the Eight-pointed Nest...
'The Spider Queen has eroded Jingyue's influence! Her plan in Pritt has made further progress! Could it be that she has been waiting for me like this!? '
After seeing this scene in front of her, Dorothy widened her eyes and thought in horror, the purpose of the series of blasphemous rituals performed by the Eight-pointed Nest before, in Dorothy's opinion, this might be the Spider Queen eroding the remaining influence of Mirror Moon in Pritt, and finally achieving a certain purpose.
Dorothy originally thought that the last time she stopped Bajian's action in Gramorn, she transformed the Mirror Moon Church first and killed a red man and a God-chosen red man, which should have an impact on the Spider Queen's plan and delay it for a while. But now the Spider Queen can actually affect her own fairy of the lake, which is obviously a big step forward in Bajian's plan. What exactly has Bajian been doing secretly during this period of time?
At this moment, all kinds of confusions suddenly surged into Dorothy's heart. Although she was confused now, she knew that now was not the time to deal with these problems. The Spider Queen's will was being projected to Igwent through the body of the fairy in the lake, and she had to run quickly!
Do what she wanted to do. In the moment of crisis, Dorothy, who had never expected things to develop like this, immediately prepared to transform into an element and run away.
At this moment, the spider head that was still flickering and disturbing suddenly turned its head, and its eight eyes stared at Dorothy. At the moment Dorothy was stared at, a circle of illusory spikes suddenly appeared around her.
These spikes were translucent dark red in color, piercing out from the empty space, completely surrounding Dorothy from all directions. The moment these translucent illusory spikes appeared, Dorothy's body immediately felt a severe phantom pain. Under such a strong phantom pain, Dorothy's elementalization was forcibly interrupted for a moment, and in this phantom pain, Dorothy had difficulty concentrating and began to elementalize again!
"Selene... chess piece... I'll wait for you... for a long time..."
'Oops……'
After the elementalization was broken by the phantom pain, Dorothy couldn't help but feel uneasy in her heart. This phantom pain not only prevented Dorothy from elementalization, but also hindered all her other extraordinary skills. Now, whenever Dorothy wanted to use any extraordinary ability, she would be interrupted by the strong phantom pain.
Those spikes surrounding her clearly exuded a faint divine aura!
In this situation, she had absolutely no chance of escaping. She could only stand there and wait for those illusory spikes to pierce her. These spikes were so painful even with phantom pain, so if they really pierced her body, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Dorothy almost closed her eyes, waiting for the piercing spikes. At that moment, all the illusory spikes stopped just half a meter away from Dorothy and did not move forward any further. Although the illusory spikes still did not disappear at this time, they were completely motionless and did not show any sign of movement.
In this way, although Dorothy's entire body avoided the fate of being pierced by the illusory spikes, because of the dense spikes that still existed at a close distance and had not disappeared, Dorothy temporarily lost the ability to move freely and was trapped by these inward-facing spikes.
Dorothy, who was wearing a hooded cloak that concealed her own shape, looked at the dense illusory spikes all over her body and couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. She didn't expect that the influence of the Spider Queen could directly attack here, and why did this attack suddenly stop here?
Confused, Dorothy looked in the direction of the spider-headed astral body, and then what she saw was that the astral body's original flickering appeared more frequently at this moment. The out-of-control astral body flickered intermittently in front of Dorothy's eyes at high speed, sometimes appearing and sometimes disappearing, and it looked even more unstable. This was no longer Dorothy's astral body, but a special illusory body that relied on the power projected by the Spider Queen.
And in this rapid flash, the head part of the phantom is the most unstable, and its shape is constantly changing, sometimes turning into a monster-like spider form, and sometimes turning into a normal female form of a lake fairy.
'The power of the Mirror Moon Goddess has not completely disappeared! She is still trying to project her power to Pritt!'
Looking at this scene, Dorothy made a mental judgment. It was obvious that the Spider Queen had used the influence left in Pritt to affect Dorothy's phantom body and project power, but this influence was not completely thorough. After the connection force was strengthened, Jingyue seemed to have projected power to the phantom body of the Fairy in the Lake, but she did not overwhelm the Spider Queen, and was even slightly at a disadvantage.
Now, Mirror Moon seemed to be using its uncorrupted influence to project power intermittently, fighting for control of Dorothy's out-of-control phantom body. Now it seemed that it was barely holding its ground with the Spider Queen, so these dark red illusory spikes suddenly stopped, without further harming itself.
"Too late, it seems that Jingyue is not completely unable to get through."
After witnessing this scene, Dorothy couldn't help but think in excitement. Then she began to pay more serious attention to the changes in the out-of-control phantom in front of her, and began to think about how to deal with it.
At this moment, the phantom that was unstable and out of control due to Jingyue's power was transforming back into the Spider's Head. It slowly moved its gaze to the distance and then looked at the night sky.
The direction she was looking at now was the battlefield where Anna and Atole were fighting!
At this moment, in the distance in the direction that the out-of-control phantom was looking at, the confrontation between Atoli and Anna was about to enter a new stage. After seeing her shadow incarnation being cracked, Atoli was praying secretly while further liberating her abilities. The moment the out-of-control phantom looked towards the battlefield, the situation here changed.
"Light and shadow coexist... the inside and outside depend on each other... Holy Maiden... guide me to the name of Atolli... um..."
Galloping across the barren sand, constantly dodging Anna's attacks, just when Atole was about to finish guiding her, she was suddenly startled. After her body trembled slightly, her demeanor began to change.
"What's this?!"
With a look of shock on her face, strands of dark red blood gradually appeared from the whites of Atelina's wide-open eyes, began to surround the edges of her eyeballs, and gradually covered her entire eyes.
"This is... the Saint? No... this is..."
At this moment, Atoli felt that a will filled with hatred and cruelty was inexplicably growing out of her heart, and gradually eroding her original mind. Even though Atoli's own will was firm, she was unable to resist this erosion for a while.
At this moment, Artoli felt that her head was about to explode with pain. She felt like there were countless rustling voices whispering in her ears, which made her very upset.
Under the inexplicable erosion of her mind, not only was the further release of Atreli's power interrupted, but her entire combat state also began to be greatly affected. However, even so, Atreli still relied on her excellent combat instincts to completely cope with Anna's attack at this time.
As time passed, the erosion in Atoli's brain progressed extremely fast. The white of one of her eyes was quickly filled with dark red. When the other eye was about to be completely infected by the dark red, a glimmer of silver light appeared, protecting the last ray of white.
“Hmm… Hmm… This is… pollution… It actually comes from the name of a saint… pollution…”
In the pain of her will being eroded, Atoli, who relied on instinct to fight, gradually began to lose the upper hand. Although Atoli's mind was now seriously infected, the last touch of silver prevented her will from completely collapsing. There was some strange power protecting her.
"This is... the Spider Queen is using some kind of channel. Li's influence in Pritt is eroding Atoli's will, but Jingyue has also taken action. She is protecting Atoli from being completely eroded!"
After witnessing this scene on the battlefield in the distance, Dorothy, who was still trapped in the spiked cage, couldn't help but analyze the situation in her mind.
However, just as Atori was protected by the silver light, Dorothy's phantom body, which had been flickering and out of control, suddenly stabilized. However, the head of the phantom body was not a normal woman, but still the head of the terrifying spider! Jingyue's power was suppressed by the Spider Queen at this moment!
Dorothy couldn't help but be shocked when she saw her out-of-control phantom body stabilized into the form of the spider's head. Then she saw the phantom spikes around her body that had been stagnant suddenly shrink inwards, as if they were about to pierce Dorothy into a hedgehog.
Looking at the illusory spikes piercing from all over her body, Dorothy couldn't help but tense up in panic. Just when she thought she was afraid of the pill, her out-of-control phantom body began to flicker again. The originally stable form of the spider head on the phantom's head could no longer be maintained, and was replaced by an unstable form that alternated between a normal woman and a spider monster.
At the moment when the out-of-control phantom body returned to an unstable state, the illusory spikes that were originally piercing Dorothy suddenly paused. After the Spider Queen completely dominated the out-of-control phantom body for a moment, the originally suppressed Mirror Moon's power suddenly grew back again, competing with the Spider Queen for control of the out-of-control phantom body, which once again allowed the Spider Queen to temporarily suspend the piercing punishment on Dorothy.
However, this wave of support from Jingyue's power was not without cost. On the battlefield, in the eyes of Atoli, who was struggling with the power of erosion, the last remaining silver-white fluorescence gradually disappeared, and Atoli's eyes were completely occupied by dark red for a moment.
Obviously, compared with the current Spider Queen, the power that Jingyue can project is far from enough. In the case of little connection force, Jingyue can only concentrate the small part of the power that can be projected to fight against the Spider Queen.
This means that when the Spider Queen's projected power is much greater than her own, Mirror Moon cannot completely protect Dorothy and Atole. After the Spider Queen saw that she could not completely pull Mirror Moon in the fight for the Phantom Body, she turned around and eroded Atole's mind. After Mirror Moon saw this, she divided her power to protect Atole, which caused the power of the Phantom Body to weaken. So the Spider Queen turned back to snatch the Phantom Body and threatened Dorothy. Mirror Moon also had to return to defend, and the Spider Queen took the opportunity to completely erode Atole.
The power that Jingyue can project now is limited. If she uses it concentratedly, in the battlefield with the upper limit of the capacity of the phantom body, Jingyue can fight against the Spider Queen who has more projected power. However, once the battlefield is expanded to another one, Jingyue's projected power will immediately be stretched.
So to put it bluntly, for Jingyue, he can only protect one between Atole and Dorothy, and he will try his best to protect both of them. But if he is asked to make a choice, he will definitely choose Dorothy.
However, for the Spider Queen, no matter what choice Mirror Moon makes, she will win in the end. Even if Mirror Moon can save Dorothy for a while, after completely eroding and controlling Atolli, Dorothy will not be able to escape.
The Spider Queen of that day would definitely take this opportunity to get rid of Dorothy, whom she believed was Jingyue's biggest trump card left in Pritt.
When the whites of Atoli's eyes were completely infected by dark red, she looked at Anna in the distance with a cold expression. After dodging the powerful wind blades and air cannons created by Anna several times with her fast and agile body, she took out the pistol in her hand and fired continuously at Anna, shooting out countless beams of light.
Facing the light beam shot out from Atochow's Light Revolver, Anna, who had been warned in advance, directly used the Wind Spear in her hand to rotate and create a circle of torrent wind barrier, blocking all scattering of the incoming light beam. After seeing Anna's actions, the eroded Atochow took the opportunity to shoot a light beam in another direction.
The direction from which this beam of light was fired was exactly where Dorothy was now! After Dorothy, who was trapped in the spiked prison, realized the other party's actions, she immediately asked Anna to stop her actions and immediately stopped Atole.
So, after guiding the storm shield to rotate only twice, Anna guided the power it contained in one breath and turned it into a strong wind that blew in the direction of Atoli. When the strong wind just blew over, Atoli just fired.
Amid a burst of crisp gunfire, a long, dazzling beam of light shot out from the revolver in Atoli's hand, crossing the entire Igwynt city area, and shooting from the suburbs on one side to the suburbs on the other side at a very long distance.
The beam of light from Atole's gun was aimed directly at Dorothy's head. Now that Dorothy was trapped in the spike prison and completely unable to move, she had no way of avoiding the shot.
But what happened was that Dorothy predicted Atwood's attack in time, and asked Anna to blow up a storm to disturb Atwood when she was about to fire the gun, causing Atwood's aiming posture to deviate a little bit.
This tiny deviation is extremely slight, and can have very little impact on Atole's shooting accuracy. If Atole goes shooting in this state, she can accurately hit the center of a target of seven to eight meters or even four to five kilometers.
