If Sarah before, after entering stealth mode, concealed all her presence, making her presence undetectable.

Now, Sarah is more like a sharp blade drawn from its sheath, full of deadly danger!

Seeing this scene, Cao Xing was certain.

Because this means Sarah has a high chance of success!

Sure enough, a system prompt appeared not long after.

[Your territory member: Sarah Blade Dance successfully transformed into a fourth-level commander-level creature, basic attributes +30%, learned the commander skill: Moon Dance]

[Moon Dance: Enters Moon Dance form, stealth skill becomes invalid, armor increases by 20%, critical hit rate increases by 20%, and normal attacks will cause 30% splash damage to 4 nearby enemies;

And learn additional skills: "Moon Dance", "Death Dance", "Killing Dance", duration 2 minutes, cooldown time 30 minutes]

…

"Oh? A status-based skill?"

"The status type is great! After being blessed by my eternal power, it will exist forever!"

A smile appeared on Cao Xing's lips.

Then he couldn't wait to take a look at the attributes of the three new skills.

[Moon Dance: With the power of the Dark Moon, you can become lighter and jump forward 3 to 30 meters in the air. During this process, you can make attacking moves, and can jump up to 5 times in a row.]

[Death Dance: Locks on a single enemy, causing continuous 8*112% slash damage to it, and each attack adds 1 layer of bleeding effect. Cooldown time: 120 seconds]

[Killing Dance: Break the physical limit, instantly split into 5~8 figures, causing 3*112% cutting damage to all enemies within 10 meters, each attack adds 1 layer of bleeding effect, cooldown time: 180 seconds]

…

"Oh my god... so strong?"

After Cao Xing was shocked, he was ecstatic!

"The transformation from a leader to a commander is terrifying!"

"This Moon Dance form is so damn powerful, it directly turns Sarah from an assassin into a berserker!"

"Moreover, he is an extremely agile berserker!"

This can be seen from the [Moon Dance] skill.

If Sarah was previously restricted to ground units, now it can be said that no terrain can restrict her movements!

If they encounter the same situation as before when dealing with the witch, they will not be so passive.

Sarah can just jump into the sky and shoot down the air units.

As for the other two skills, one for single target and one for group attack, the damage coefficients are equally explosively high.

After the eight attacks of "Death Dance", "Shadow Blossom" is performed, and "Blessing Release" may be triggered during the process.

Even commanders of the same rank found it difficult to cope with this wave of outbursts.

This is the real assassination goddess!

Cao Xing was delighted. "Sarah, show me your Moon Dance."

Sarah heard this without any hesitation and instantly released the power in her body.

A black moon seemed to appear behind her.

At the same time.

Sarah's two daggers also carry a trace of Dark Moon power.

[Your territory member: Sarah Blade Dance successfully performed the skill [Moon Dance]. Under the influence of the talent [Eternal Power], this skill has become permanent.]

(Note: In permanent mode, you can exit and enter at any time.)

…

"Haha, the power of eternity is as powerful as ever!"

At the same time, Sarah appeared.

Cao Xing saw a slender figure wearing a tight leather jacket leap into the air.

Then she lightly stepped on the lotus foot and jumped higher into the air like a graceful elf.

Sarah's movements were so agile that she landed next to the window of the castle in just a few clicks.

Not only that, Cao Xing also saw that she could use the skill [Phantom Flash] in the air.

“Swish!”

A shadow flashed by.

Then he immediately followed up with "Moon Dance".

She used various skills more and more skillfully and beautifully.

Sarah at this moment is so elegant and dangerous!

The next moment, Sarah jumped lightly and landed steadily next to Cao Xing.

Then she knelt on one knee respectfully.

"Sarah, how are you feeling?"

She raised her beautiful face and whispered, "My Lord, I feel better than ever before."

"In this form, I can even fight the half-elf over there alone."

Hearing this, Cao Xing also smiled.

Without the blessing of divinity, Francesca's attributes were greatly reduced.

Still scary though.

But if she didn't have Cao Xing's series of status bonuses, she might not be Sarah's opponent.

Sarah in Moon Dance form is just too strong.

Glancing at Sarah's attributes.

[Phantom Assassin: Sarah Blade Dance]

[Race: Dark Elf]

[Level: Level 32 79523/340000 (Fourth-level commander-level creature)]

【Detailed properties: click to expand】

…

"hiss!!!"

Cao Xing took a deep breath.

"860,000 HP, 4,600 attack power! Plus a 70% critical hit rate!"

"That's too fierce!"

Sarah after her transformation is so terrifying.

At this stage, she can probably deal with level 5 boss creatures with ease!

At the same time.

The witch over there, Francesca, has also recovered.

She slowly stood up from the ground and looked at her body.

"What an unimaginable power..."

"You can even heal my serious injuries."

"No wonder you were able to defeat that guy..."

Cao Xing led Sarah to her side and asked, "How do you feel now?"

Francesca's pupils flickered with a faint green glow.

"I feel much better. In a few minutes, I will be able to fight again."

After hearing this, Cao Xing nodded and then took a look at her skills.

Ever since the dark power dissipated from her body.

Francesca's skills have also changed.

【Forest Witch: Francesca】

[Race: Half-elf]

[Level: Level 50 0/1,000,000 (fifth-level commander-level creature)]

【Detailed properties: click to view】

…

"Not bad, not bad."

As a fifth-level commander-level creature, Francesca has powerful combat power.

Several of her skills can be of great help in team battles.

For example, the group attack + group recovery of [Spirit Surge].

For example, the life shield of [Forest Blessing].

Not to mention the [Witch Domain], which can play a huge role by forcing all enemy skills to cool down and halving the cooldown time of friendly skills.

However, what Cao Xing was interested in was not her combat ability, but her life skills: [Master-level Alchemy Mastery]!

You know, what he needs most now is a pharmacist.

The importance of a master-level pharmacist is self-evident!

Cao Xing thought to himself, "It just so happens that after these days of cultivation, the Spirit Breath Grass and Ice Bird Flower in my territory have almost grown."

"Let's see how many there are when we get back."

"If all of these materials can be made into medicine, it should be able to exchange for a large amount of resources."

Thinking of this, Cao Xing has become more determined to bring Francesca back to his territory.

So, Cao Xing said directly: "Francesca."

Hearing Cao Xing calling her, the witch in front of her, who was wearing a red low-cut dress and had a stunningly beautiful face, raised her head slightly.

"You should know that I am a lord."

"My territory is not here either."

"So I need you to come back to the territory with me, what do you think?"

Hearing this, Francesca showed some hesitation in her eyes.

After a moment, she still didn't answer.

Cao Xing asked doubtfully, "Are you unwilling?"

Francesca leaned forward slightly and covered her white chest with one hand.

"My dear Lord, it's not that I don't want to go back to the territory with you."

"It's because... I have been in this forest for nearly two hundred years."

"During these two hundred years, I have basically been conducting research, refining medicine, and fighting for consciousness with the being inside my body..."

"I don't know what's happening in the outside world, and I don't know how to get along with other people in my current state..."

After listening to this, Cao Xing nodded in sudden realization.

For two hundred years, Francesca stayed in the castle.

If it were on Blue Star, two hundred years ago our society was still in the feudal dynasty era.

Although the world is not developing that fast.

But Francesca had no idea what the outside world was like and was isolated from the world.

In our words, they are out of touch with society.

Cao Xing thought for a moment and then said, "If you feel uncomfortable with strangers, I can arrange a private room for you so that you can slowly get used to it."

"I don't need you to do anything right now. You just need to use your expertise to help me make medicine."

He said it directly.

After hearing this, the witch seemed to be moved.

At this time, Elisa gently took her arm and said excitedly: "Sister Witch, come back to the territory with us. I want to be your friend."

Little Chuchu beside him also said, "Yes, yes, beautiful witch sister, come back with us."

"Big Brother's territory is very warm, much warmer than inside the castle."

"Besides, everyone gets along well with each other, so you won't feel out of place..."

It can be seen that the two little girls like her very much.

He looked at Francesca with hope in his eyes.

She thought for a moment and looked into the eyes of Tong Chuchu and Elisa.

Then he sighed and said, "Okay, I'll go back to the territory with you..."

Hearing this, everyone smiled.

Xiao Chuchu and Elisa held her arms and shouted excitedly, "Yeah!"

"The beautiful witch sister is going back with us!"

And Cao Xing was also very happy.

I couldn't help but give a thumbs up to the two little girls, Tong Chuchu and Elisa.

After Francesca made her decision, she stopped dragging her feet.

Instead, he asked softly, "My Lord...when will we set off?"

Cao Xing looked at the time. It was already past 1 a.m.

After thinking for a moment, he said directly: "Let's go back tonight."

He is worried about something.

This time, he killed a red-robed bishop of the Church of Light.

As an important member of the Church of Illumination, the other party is likely to send people to investigate.

So he had to leave as soon as possible.

Otherwise, if we were discovered, it would be a fight to the death.

Francesca nodded slightly.

"Okay, please give me a few minutes to pack up and take some medicine and tools away..."

After hearing this, Cao Xing said awkwardly: "Uh... no need..."

The beautiful witch in front of him fluttered her black eyelashes and looked at Cao Xing with doubt in her eyes.

"Why?"

"Because I have already put it away for you."

Hearing this, everyone couldn't help laughing, wanting to laugh but not daring to.

Francesca was silent for a moment, then seemed to understand something and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

This was the first time Cao Xing saw her smile from the bottom of her heart.

It was as if he had accidentally caught a glimpse of a beautiful flower blooming alone in the deepest part of the forest.

A moment of stunning beauty that strikes the soul!

“Ahem…”

Cao Xing quickly turned his eyes away and said, "Let's go, get ready to leave here."

"Andrew, cast some moonfire magic to burn the body of the red-robed bishop."

"As you command, Lord."

Andrew said this and immediately cast several Moonfire Techniques.

“Bang! Bang! Bang!”

The flames burned, making a crackling sound.

Only after everyone saw that the body was completely burnt did they gradually leave.

They made their way to the third floor.

Francesca also saw the body leaning against the tombstone.

He sighed softly and then waved his hand.

The body and the tombstone disappeared.

No one knows where Rapunzel's body went.

The bodies on the second and first floors were also destroyed by Francesca using the same method, and they disappeared on the spot.

Then, everyone came outside the mottled city wall.

Francesca took a last look at the castle that was filled with the breath of time.

She placed her right hand on her forehead in some kind of prayer ritual.

It was like saying goodbye to my memories from the past few hundred years.

Then, she took graceful steps and stepped out of the barrier.

At this moment, Cao Xing and Liu Muxue sat on Dabai's back again.

Little Elisa and Tong Chuchu were lying on Wally's back.

The surrounding environment was pitch black.

Elisa said excitedly, "Great, I can finally go home!"

At this moment, Cao Xing suddenly remembered something.

"Wait a minute, I think I forgot something!"

He remembered that he had previously taken on a mission from the witch in the forest.

Now the mission should be complete.

Checked the mission progress.

【Kill the Forest Witch】

[Mission objective: Defeat the three castle guardians, the Big Bad Wolf, the Ogre, and Rapunzel, 3/3 (completed)]

[Go to the top floor of the castle and defeat the forest witch: 1/1 (completed)]

[Mission Reward: Dark Crystal Ball*1, Legendary Shield - Clue to Annodite...]

…

All mission conditions have been completed.

And one of the mission rewards, the [Dark Crystal Ball], has already been obtained by Cao Xing.

Another reward, the clue to the legendary shield he didn't know yet.

He definitely couldn't just let something this important go.

So Cao Xing led everyone and traveled through the Witch Forest late at night.

There was complete darkness all around.

Isabel lit the holy light, illuminating the way forward for everyone.

Soon, they returned to the cabin again.

When Francesca saw the cabin, there was a look of confusion in her eyes.

It seemed a little strange that there was suddenly a small wooden house near his castle.

But she didn't say much, just watched Cao Xing walk forward and knock on the door.

“Boom! Boom!”

The empty knock on the door echoed.

However, there was no response from inside.

After knocking several times, it still happened.

Cao Xing couldn't help it, so he walked forward and pushed the wooden door open.

However, when I pushed the door open, I saw only a small blackened wooden bed and a few wooden tables, chairs and benches.

There was a thick layer of dust on it and it had even rotted.

It was obvious that no one had entered this cabin for many years.

However, just two days ago, Cao Xing saw the old witch here.

It's clear that she has lived a lot here.

"Strange... Where's that old witch?"

Elisa also rested her chin on her hand and asked in confusion, "Oh yeah, why is that scary old woman gone?"

Including other people, they were also confused by the scene before them.

At this time, Francesca whispered, "You mean, there are people living here?"

Cao Xing nodded, "Yes, three days ago, we met an old witch here."

"She told us the information inside the castle."

"She also gave us the props for entering the castle."

Hearing this, Francesca fluttered her long eyelashes, as if she was thinking about something.

After a moment, she shook her head and said, "It's a pity. Since I entered the forest, I have never heard of any witch near my castle..."

"This person's true identity is probably very special."

People have also gradually realized this.

Able to easily take out the orange teleportation item and know the situation inside the castle in detail.

In fact, the other party's initial target was Francesca.

Or is it the being inside her body?

A closer look makes people feel extremely terrified.

However, Cao Xing didn't care about the identity of this old witch.

What he was concerned about was what to do with his reward.

"God damn it!"

"You promised to tell me the clue of the legendary shield, but you just ran away!"

Cao Xing was very angry.

And at this moment.

Renis seemed to have discovered something different.

She whispered, "Lord, there seems to be some writing in the room."

Hearing this, everyone looked over.

However, none of them had Renis's [Hunting Eyes], so they couldn't see anything.

However, Cao Xing has the effect of [Eye of True Vision].

When he concentrated, he actually saw a few words left on the floor.

「）」

"Hmm? What does that mean?"

Cao Xing thought for a moment, then quickly found a piece of wood and wrote it down.

"Does anyone among you recognize this language?"

Everyone looked at the words above and shook their heads.

Francesca stared and said softly.

"It seems to be a very ancient language."

Hearing this, Cao Xing's eyes lit up, "Oh? Do you know what it means?"

Francesca was silent for a moment, as if recalling something in her mind.

After a moment, she replied, "It seems to be a place name..."

"Place name?"

Francesca nodded her head. "Yes, it seems to be called... the City of Gray."

"The City of Darkness..."

Cao Xing thought quickly and had no impression of this gloomy city.

Obviously, this should be a city hidden somewhere in the western continent.

He memorized the name in his heart.

Waiting for the day when I can find relevant clues.

"Very good, the old witch kept her promise."

At this point, the journey to the Witch Forest is over.

Cao Xing ordered, "Let's go, get ready to set off!"

After saying that, they sat back on the mammoth Dabai.

Isabel held up the staff in her hand, emitting bright light.

In the dead of night, everyone began to travel through this deep and cold forest...

…

…

At the same time.

Thousands of kilometers away from the Witch Forest.

There is a huge lake covered with ice for thousands of miles.

On the shore of the lake stands a magnificent city.

The tall city walls and retro towers are equipped with various artillery and large siege crossbows.

Inside the city, there are various large arrow towers and many houses.

This is Lake Toronto.

The city often has a population of over a million.

Because it is backed by Lake Duolun, there are many fishermen here.

It is famous for its rich aquatic resources in the snowy plains.

However, a group of uninvited guests appeared on the surface of Lake Duolun tonight.

They all wore vortex masks.

There are thousands of people!

Among them were a large number of priests of the Church of Light dressed in black and white robes.

At the front, there is a person wearing a red robe and having a powerful aura.

At this time, a white-robed priest came over and said, "My Lord Bishop, the passage to Lake Duolun City has been opened."

"We have teams in the south, west, and north of the city, ready to attack at any time."

After listening to the report, the red-robed bishop nodded slightly.

Then he said, "Very good, according to the instructions of the Seed of Light, we will be able to attack Lake Duolun in a few days."

"Now, we just need to wait for Bishop Eugene to reach an agreement with that being."

The white-robed priest next to him couldn't help but ask, "Your Excellency, what's the situation with Bishop Eugene? Why do we have to wait for him?"

The red-robed cardinal glanced at it calmly, then shook his head.

"You don't understand. Bishop Eugene's plan is very crucial."

"It's even more important than what's happening here."

"Once Bishop Eugene reaches an agreement with that person, we can draw out more of the will of the God of Light."

"Then, all of us will enjoy the blessing of the God of Light!"

After hearing this, not only the white-robed priest, but also the dozens of black-robed priests and those wearing masks at the back all showed fanaticism in their eyes!

And at this moment.

The red-robed bishop in front of him had a drastic change of expression.

Even his aura was out of control.

A terrifying aura instantly burst out from him, sweeping across an area of ​​several kilometers!

This made the members of the Church of Light present at the scene feel a terrifying will descending, and they dared not even breathe!

The white-robed priest asked cautiously.

"My Lord, what's wrong with you?"

The red-robed bishop had a gloomy expression on his face, and then he gritted his teeth and said, "The Seed of Light just sent us a message."

"Something happened... with Bishop Eugene..."

The white-robed priest asked in confusion, "What happened?"

"Bishop Eugene has been killed!"

On the field, all the members of the Church of Light changed their expressions wildly!
