141 A Desperate Crisis
“Save me!” shouted Evelyn in fear.
The Dark Enchanter had decided. It was because of tricks played by Evelyn and Gadar that her Lord had fallen.
The Dark Enchanter attacked Evelyn because she knew the Radiant Envoy would try to save her.
If it was a Dark-Type hero, it wouldn’t be beneath them to sacrifice their own Lords to save themselves. But Light-Types were different. The Dark Enchanter knew this.
Just as the black lightning was about to reach Evelyn, the Radiant Envoy went through several internal struggles. He finally rushed toward Evelyn. He wanted to push her out of the way, but he was a little too late. As he reached her, the black lightning hit him.
“No!” Evelyn cried in despair. She saw the Radiant Envoy turning to stone before her eyes.
As a Lord, she had countless troops. But he was her Initial Hero. His presence determined the outcome of the battle. Losing him meant that Evelyn had lost the only chance of making a comeback in this competition. Therefore, watching her hero gradually turn to stone was torture for her.
The Dark Enchanter was looking down from above. A magic array was suspended under her feet, allowing her to float in the air.
The Dark Enchanter smiled in satisfaction. “What kind of resistance do you have now?”
The Fallen Angel, White Dragon Saint, and Radiant Envoy had all turned to stone!
“We’re doomed!”
Gadar looked at his hero, the Fallen Angel, who had turned into stone. He then looked at the other heroes, who had suffered a similar fate.
The three Lords didn’t have a strong enough hero that they could use.
Perhaps the three Overlords could open the Dimensional Portal and summon their strongest troops to fight the enemy…
Su Wan’s face paled. She hadn’t expected the Dark Enchanter to be so powerful.
Moreover, the Dark Enchanter had ticked the Radiant Envoy and petrified him in one strike.
How could they fight someone like that with their current strength?
Maybe if they waited for the Dark Enchanter to get tired or slip just once, then they could have a chance of defeating her.
The Dark Enchanter descended onto the ground barefooted. She pulled Lord Lina to her and comforted her. “Lina, don’t cry. I will get you double of whatever you lost.”
The Dark Enchanter glared at Su Wan, Evelyn, and Gadar with murderous intent.
Evelyn pointed at Su Wan with a trembling finger. “It was her! It was her idea! She forced me to do this!”
Evelyn was biting back. Even though she was the one who suggested Lin to them, she blamed it on Su Wan. The situation was hopeless. So, she wanted to switch sides.
Evelyn didn’t know how powerful Xu Yuan was, but based on what she had seen so far, he seemed useless to her.
Her hero was the Radiant Envoy, Gadar’s hero was the Fallen Angel, and she assumed Su Wan’s hero was the White Dragon Saint. All three heroes had been wiped out from Evelyn’s perspective. Therefore, she thought they had nothing to fight Lina with.
Evelyn realized it was time to surrender, so she willingly did.
Moreover, this wasn’t considered defecting to the enemy. She was previously captured by Su Wan. She had been plotting revenge and planning her escape ever since.
Lord Gadar was of a different opinion. He knew Xu Yuan wasn’t as simple as he looked. So, he felt like there was still hope.
There was still a mysterious black dragon on Su Wan’s side who could turn things around. Thus, Gadar remained quiet. He waited for the right opportunity to strike.
Lina and the Dark Enchanter turned to Su Wan.
Lina whispered, “It’s her. She snatched all of our resources!”
The Dark Enchanter glared at Su Wan.
Evelyn was excited. She couldn’t wait for Su Wan and Lina to fight so that she could take advantage of the situation and escape!
Whether it was Lina or Su Wan, Evelyn felt that all of them were her enemies. She didn’t want to stay there for even a moment.
Su Wan instinctively took a step back when the Dark Enchanter looked at her with hostility in her eyes.
She hadn’t expected things to turn out this way. The powerful White Dragon Saint, the Fallen Angel, and the Radiant Envoy had all been defeated!
Su Wan was so panicky that she even forgot about Xu Yuan. She retreated step by step.
Suddenly, Su Wan’s foot didn’t find a ground to step on. She looked behind her. There was nothing there, except the river. If she took another step back, she would fall into the river!
‘What do I do?’
Su Wan looked at the Dark Enchanter, who was approaching her step by step. Her heart raced in panic.
Since she became a Lord, Su Wan had experienced countless battles, both big and small, but not once had she died. Was she going to die here?
Su Wan was unable to calm herself enough to think of a way. Her body trembled. She closed her eyes, waiting for her death.
However, at this moment, Gadar shouted.
Su Wan opened her eyes. She saw Gadar looking into the dark in the direction where Su Wan and Xu Yuan had hidden before.
Su Wan had sneaked into the fight. But Xu Yuan had been too lazy. He must still be there!
“Your Majesty, isn’t it time for you to make your move?” shouted Gadar.
Gadar’s voice attracted everyone’s attention. The one who panicked the most was Evelyn.
Su Wan’s team had captured Evelyn. So, she had volunteered to lead them to Lina. She had forgotten about Xu Yuan’s existence. She had just tried to switch sides. What would be the consequences of it now?
Evelyn was in a dilemma.
It didn’t matter whichever side won this fight. For Evelyn, things weren’t looking good. Su Wan had captured her. She had led Su Wan here and then turned her back on her, while Lina was already her enemy.
Evelyn was trapped either way. She broke out in a cold sweat.
