780 Nailisi’s Cunningness Part 2 (1/2)
The distance between both parties shrunk from one-hundred yards to less than a yard. Black flames engulfed the horse's hooves as they trampled on the red Bishop's chest. If they made contact with the red Bishop, half his body would be crushed.
”Holy shield!”
There was no time for the red Bishop to cast any attacking divine spells, he did not dare to sacrifice his life in exchange anyway. In his eyes, Nailisi was a death mage, so even if she was killed, she would still be able to transform her soul instantaneously to become a high-level soul witch.
Training over a period of time would still allow a soul witch to preserve her body and become a lich. As for him, if his body was crushed, he could only pray that the Gods would still remember him and allow him to be revived in heaven.
Nailisi crashed onto the blinding holy shield along with her horse. Behind her, the image of a three yard tall angel from heaven appeared. There was a pair of gigantic white wings on the back of this angel, who hacked at the back of Nailisi with the giant sword of glory in his hands.
The expression on the other red Bishop was a little dejected. The purple tentacles surrounded him and were within a yard of the Bishop, but were unable to get closer. This was the center of the holy zone, which was also a grade-8 technique. Touch of Death was a spell that caused area effect damage and was unable to penetrate his defense.
”Teacher!” The two death mages recalled Nailisi's instructions and quickly called out to her when she was in danger.
The skeletal warhorse, which had been activated into a middle-level creature, crashed onto the transparent holy shield. The black flames on the hooves extinguished instantaneously and the horse's limbs turned into ashes.
There was a vicious look in Nailisi's eyes. A layer of electric current appeared on the surface of her body, following which, she dove into the holy shield like a fish and passed through the grade-7 defensive divine spell. On the other hand, there was nothing left of her skeletal warhorse as it had been cleansed by the holy shield.
There was a look of panic in the red Bishop's eyes. Nailisi's death magic spell was pure. He could never imagine that a beautiful mage like her was not human. No, she was not a mage at all. The smooth hands of hers were already growing sharp nails that were half a foot long and they pierced into the chest of the red Bishop.
Nailisi used lightning cloak to pass through the holy shield forcefully. She felt dizzy, as if countless disciples were chanting prayers around her, trying to convert her into a disciple of the Lord of Glory. Beneath her magic robe, all the obsidians that hung at her waist all broke into pieces and dispersed into the wind. The spirit powers stored in the obsidian was destroyed by the power of faith in the holy shield.
Nailisi's disguise had completely failed. The two red Bishops finally realized that this woman was not a mage!
Nailisi knew that her nails had pierced through an illusion instead of a real target. She knew that grade-8 holy priests were not that easy to kill. She bit the tip of her tongue in order to recover a sliver of clarity and spit out a thin and transparent needle from her mouth. This needle pierced through the illusion and through the throat of the red Bishop, creating a hole in his collarbone and severing a nerve.
This needle was made from small pieces of dragonshards. It was purely a physical attack, without any elemental powers involved. Nailisi had to beg the two grade-9 sorcerers to help her refine such a needle.Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click for visiting.
Pure dragonshards and a pure physical attack were the best ways to overcome defensive divine spells. The two of them were barely a yard apart, so the dragonshard that Nailisi had spit out ended the grade-8 holy priest's life.
This was how demons killed – by being cunning and unpredictable.
The red Bishop died instantly and the holy shield vanished. The illusion of the angel from heaven continued to wield its giant sword in pursuit of Nailisi. She did not bother to turn back and instead, turned her attention towards the other red Bishop.
At such close distances, holy priests and mages were no match for demons.
After witnessing his companion's death, the red Bishop no longer dared to use a holy shield to defend himself. The ring on his finger flickered and rows of huge light spears appeared on both sides. They were clustered together like gears in a machine while rolling towards Nailisi. At the same time, he shouted, ”Repent!”
Nailisi felt her body become heavy suddenly before crashing towards the ground. The sounds of prayers were roaring in her brain. She could not control her body and she could barely make out a pair of gigantic eyes staring at her and demanding her to kneel down in worship.
After being dealt a blow by the holy shield earlier, Nailisi was unable to resist the repentance technique of the holy priest. It looked like she was about to give in. She clearly remembered that she was crashing towards the ground, yet it felt like she was flying towards the top of a mountain.
No, that was not the top of a mountain. It was a lifeform that was as grand and majestic as the top of a mountain; it was a God.
The God was thousands of yards tall and was looking down at her, a small and pathetic life. Around the God were countless creatures that knelt at its feet and were singing its praises.
”Place your faith in me and you shall have freedom!”
The God's voice rang in Nailisi's brain. She could hear nothing else except this voice.
