After an intense battle, the nine Legendary Masters of the Church of the God of Aristocracy lost three of its members, while the group of six Holy Sons and Holy Daughters from the Church of the God of Knowledge saw two dead and two injured. For the moment, the comparison of combat power was almost the same as a situation of six against three.

The Church of the God of Aristocracy had a great advantage. However, up in the sky, the God of Aristocracy did not seem to register a pleasant expression.

All the smoke and dust in the air had never been able to obstruct the view of the gods. This was why the God of Aristocracy could clearly see what was happening in that battle amidst all that smoke and dust that filled the atmosphere.

The two Sacred Warriors from the Church of the God of Aristocracy arrived one after the other. Just as their blade rays were about to strike two of the Holy Sons, tremors suddenly filled the air around them. A golden-haired maiden appeared out of nowhere, and with that bizarre ship of hers, she opened fire successively and caused the two blade rays to deviate from their original path, thus saving the two Holy Sons.

The two Sacred Warriors, who were as strong as steel, expressed a hint of surprise, but their hands did not seem to show any hesitation. Immediately, they changed direction. They positioned themselves on either side of the maiden, then at the same time, they wielded their blades in the direction of this young maiden who was attempting to obstruct them.

Going by the fact this young maiden had most probably just reached the Legendary level, so if she was to fight alone against the other two, she was bound to lose her life. But she showed no traces of worry or uneasiness on her face. On the contrary, she was grinning as she removed a pouch that she had hung around her waist, and from the pouch, she took them out—a few potatoes.

The God of Aristocracy simply could not believe his eyes. A few potatoes?! Why would it be a potato? What was so special about them? Were they powerful? Or could they be used as some kind of medium for a particularly unique spell? Or perhaps, this thing might resemble a potato on the outside, but within, it was actually hiding a clone of the Void Mask?

All his conjectures and guesses were wrong. These really were just ordinary potatoes.

The young maiden tossed out the potatoes in her pouch, then dashed to the front of the blade rays and hit the two Sacred Warriors right in the head with her potatoes.

There was no element of suspense to look forward to. The potatoes were directly crushed into pieces while the two streams of blade rays hit her hard. Her body became a hideous and sorry sight within an instant. There was no time at all for her blood to splatter all over the ground. Together with its owner, the blood simply vanished and transformed into countless light spots.

And this was what an Oracle looked like at the point of death.

Of course, this was not truly a clean death as total extinction was. She could still be resurrected within her God’s Kingdom. However, to be resurrected, she had to first bear the pain of death. That was all.

The same theory applied to the devout followers who believed that death was not the end. Upon death, their souls would head back to their God’s Kingdom, and perhaps, soon enough, their souls would be transformed into new Oracles that would always fight for the respective gods they believed in.

For the two Sacred Warriors who each had one blade, killing this young maiden who stood in their way was nothing to fret over. From the point in time where she appeared to when she was finished off, it did not take them more than half a second to complete the deed. At this point in time, they should change their targets right away and continue to attack the Holy Sons and Holy Daughters. They needed to make full use of the remaining time where the influence of the legendary Holy Domain Spell was still in effect. Even if they did not have time to kill the Holy Sons and Holy Daughters, they could still grasp the opportunity to inflict heavy injuries upon the other party.

But for no apparent reason, they stood rooted to the ground like fools.

It was as though… they were also under the effect of a Legendary Holy Domain Spell.

The God of Aristocracy was baffled. These were two Sacred Warriors whose will powers were said to be as strong as steel, where even the willpower of gods might not be as resolute as theirs. Would the Holy Domain Spell work on them?

Technically speaking, even if it was a Holy Domain Spell, with the demise of the spellcaster, the spell should have lost its effect!

Through the connection of beliefs, he could clearly see that at that moment, the two Sacred Warriors were at a complete loss. They had not lost their will to fight, but they simply could not find any target to attack. They were just like headless flies, aimlessly doing things.

Before the God of Aristocracy could figure out what was going on, the six Holy Sons and Holy Daughters who were the possessed bodies of the clones of the God of Knowledge, had already recovered from the influence of the Holy Domain Spell. Without hesitation, they made their moves.
