With one strike of the sword, Annuo, Keith and Masaka who were standing in front of him were all sent flying backwards.

"What a powerful force! I used a skill, but it's not a fourth-level skill!"

Anno spat out a mouthful of blood, got up from the ground, and looked at Horace warily.

Masaka next to him was also seriously injured.

As a mage, Keith fell into a coma.

“There’s something!”

Horace looked at Anno who stood up again, then turned his gaze to Liz who was wearing a hood.

"Did you cause the abnormal condition of my subordinates?"

The only one who has not made a move yet is Liz.

Those curse-like mushrooms were definitely not created by melee fighters Anno and Masaka.

Liz heard Horace's question and immediately started acting.

"Yes, it's me!"

As she spoke, Liz emitted a level 23 magical wave, which startled Horace who was about to take action.

Talent [Disguise] activated.

Today, Liz can disguise up to the fourth level of magic fluctuations.

The lower the level of disguise, the longer it lasts.

Liz was afraid that she couldn't defeat the opponent at level 21, so she disguised herself as level 23.

At this level, Liz can last about two minutes.

If disguised as level 25, Liz can only last 10 seconds!

She was now buying time for Annuo, waiting for the [Toxic Fungus] to kill the soldiers - this process would take several minutes.

Since Annuo left Gray Dream Town, he only has 30,000 experience points left before reaching level 20.

As long as dozens of soldiers infected by the [Toxic Bacteria] die, I will definitely be able to reach level 20!

If there is still a shortfall, kill all the remaining dozens of soldiers!

For Anno, as long as his level is increased by one level, the level of the next summoned creature will reach level 20!

An Nuo still has hundreds of third-level ghost souls at this time.

Plus the bonuses of [Frenzy] and [Commander].

There is also [Power of the King]!

The magic value of a level 20 ghost is over 20,000.

The power of [Power of the King] is related to the upper limit of magic value.

It would be difficult for the opponent to feel comfortable with these people besieging a level 21 warrior.

"Who are you?" Horace looked at Liz warily.

"It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is whether you are sure you can handle me."

Not everyone can see through the truth like Annuo.

Liz's words left Horace in silence.

The opponent's body is very thin, and it is speculated that his profession is a mage, priest or thief.

But no matter which profession it is, it will be difficult to deal with after reaching the fourth level.

The mage's high-attack magic, the thief's stealth skills, the priest's control skills and holy light magic.

Not to mention that the opponent's level is 2 levels higher than his!

He might end up in trouble here.

However, the consequences of being exposed while capturing the elves were something he could not afford.

But now he may not be able to beat the opponent.

This made Horace extremely anxious.

"If I had known earlier, I would have brought more mid-level professionals with me!"

When the clues led to the Alman caravan, Horace inquired about the caravan's strength.

In order not to attract the attention of the middle-level elves in the city, Earl Edward did not send out too many fourth-level professionals.

The situation is now at a stalemate.

"Lord Horace, save...save me!"

Next to them, the screams of the soldiers infected by the [Toxic Fungus] became quieter and quieter.

However, the nearby soldiers not only did not dare to step forward to help, but retreated far away.

He was afraid that the blood mushrooms would explode and parasitize him.

Even the priests were afraid of the explosion of the ghost just now.

Horace didn't believe in ghosts, but they all saw it with their own eyes.

"No, if I let them go, the Earl will never forgive me when I return!"

Horace saw the soldiers dying in pain one after another, gritted his teeth, and said fiercely: "Although I only mastered a fourth-level skill, I still have a chance to win.

In a real battle, there are many factors that affect victory. A low level does not necessarily mean you can't win! What's more, I have dozens of subordinates at the thirteenth level to assist me!"

Thinking of this, Horace shouted to the nearby soldiers who were not parasitized by the [Toxic Fungus]: "Everyone, follow me and attack that man! Those who desert will be killed!"

"Gulp!"

After hearing the order, the third-level soldier couldn't help but swallow.

The cloaked man in front of him can cast strange curses.

The flesh and blood of the person parasitized by the mushrooms have been digested and turned into a pool of pus.

But if they disobey orders, their fate will be no easier than death.

It may even affect family members.

"kill!"

Finally, a soldier overcame his fear and rushed towards Liz with a spear in hand.

With one person taking the lead, more people rushed towards Liz.

At this time, Liz reached her limit.

Horace, who was watching, suddenly discovered that Liz's magic fluctuation had changed from level 23 to level 18!

"What's going on?"

Horace was confused.

On the other side, Liz said to An Nuo: "Master, I have reached my limit!"

“Almost there!”

After An Nuo replied, he quickly used [World Devouring Reincarnation] to devour the magic aimed at Liz!

Then use [Lion Combo] to kill a level 17 soldier that rushed up.

After all the soldiers infected by the [Toxic Bacteria] died, Annuo was only 300 experience points away from level 20.

The level 17 soldier provided Annuo with 500 experience points!

In an instant, Annuo's level rose to level 20!

"Give it a try!"

An Nuo looked at the soldiers rushing towards him and put on two layers of [Magic Shield] for himself.

He wanted to get rid of the remaining forty or so soldiers before Horace could react.

But Horace did not let Anno succeed.

Almost at the moment Anno moved, Horace also rushed towards Liz.

When An Nuo saw this scene, he no longer saved his magic power and directly released two [Poisonous Fungi] among the soldiers in the front, then turned around to protect Liz.

"So you were just pretending. Your real strength is only at level three!"

Seeing Liz hiding behind Anno, Horace finally reacted.

The angry Horace used his fourth-level skill - [Cutting Blade] directly on Anno who was blocking the way!

A layer of orange light appeared on the surface of Horace's sword, and he slashed towards Anno at an extremely fast speed.

The power of the fourth-level combat skills is between 8000-20000.

The magic shield can't block such high damage.

The leather armor on An Nuo's body couldn't block the sword light either.

If hit, the body will be cut in half instantly!

This is totally an attempt to kill An Nuo instantly!

[World Devouring Reincarnation] can devour elemental magic, but cannot devour combat skills!

Horace had already caught up to Annuo, and it was too late for him to hide.

“Die!”

Horace roared and raised his sword to slash at Anno.

Just before the sword was about to reach Anno, a tall figure appeared in front of Anno.

"【Toughness】【Increase resistance】【Increase endurance】【Speed ​​up】!"

Anno instantly added a lot of status skills to himself, turned around and ran with Liz, keeping some distance.

“Ah~”

The hard stratum corneum of the newly summoned demon Earl Wei was easily cut by the [Cutting Blade].

The huge body was instantly cut in half by Horace's long sword that slashed down from the right shoulder.

Annuo had seen the demonic defense power transformed by Earl Wei.

Even so, it was still cut in half with one knife!

"demon?"

Horace asked as he looked at the demon in front of him, whose body was split in two and fell to the ground, screaming.

How could there be a demon here?

The next moment, the demon Earl Wei, who was still struggling on the ground, suddenly lit up with white light.

boom!
