140 The Dark Enchanter, Eve
Evelyn’s words sent a chill down Gadar’s spine.
‘I am not as ruthless as that woman,’ thought Gadar, trying to convince himself.
He tried to persuade himself of the fact that Evelyn couldn’t defeat him even if they fought. He decided to remain vigilant at all times. Otherwise, he wouldn’t know even if she killed him in broad daylight.
At this moment, Lina became conscious again. She was still in pain. She tried to remember what had happened to her.
She recalled Gadar sneaking behind her and hitting her on the head. Then, she had fallen unconscious on the ground. A prompt appeared in her mind, informing her that she was participating in the Desperate Battle.
It also informed her that all her resources would be taken away if she lost the battle! She couldn’t afford to lose!
“Don’t even think about it!” Lina glared at Evelyn.
She was very tight-lipped for now. She thought of herself as a Lord who had to save her resources, much like how Evelyn was in the past.
Even if she died, she could be resurrected! But if she lost, all her resources would be gone!
“Alright!” Evelyn laughed. “I like stubborn people like you!”
She brought out a pair of pliers. “I will pull out your nails one by one. Once I am done with that, your teeth will be next. Let’s see when you will break.”
The creepy smirk on Evelyn’s lips chilled Lina to her bones.
Lina was scared. She looked up at the sky and shouted, “Eve, save me!”
The Dark Enchanter, Eve, heard the cry for help from her Lord. She felt even more anxious.
However, she was facing three powerful heroes at that time. She couldn’t find an opening to escape.
Lina finally compromised.
“I … I surrender! I will make those soldiers surrender!” Lina trembled. Tears fell from her eyes.
This experience made her understand the dangers of the world. The Lord could use the Territory Core to resurrect themselves, but the pain of torture evoked fear in their minds. Being tortured was worse than dying.
As Lina accepted her fate, her Mage Army also surrendered.
Su Wan won. This was the second time she had used the Desperate Battle ability and won resources.
However, both times Su Wan had not really fought fair. Instead, the reason for her victory was something else.
Lina was in a corner. She leaned against a huge rock. She stared at Su Wan and Evelyn and then shivered.
“Eve… we lost all of our resources.” Evelyn sobbed. “I am so miserable…”
The Dark Enchanter saw this from the sky. She was furious. “Do you all have a death wish?” she roared.
She had not expected the enemy to be so deceitful. They dragged her away into the sky and ambushed her Lord with stealth.
‘How shameless!’
“You will feel my wrath!” The Dark Enchanter’s staff began to spin. “Dark magic: Thunder of Obliteration!”
The sky was suddenly covered with black clouds. Black lightning thundered in the sky.
“Repent. This is for Lina’s tears!”
Black lightning descended from the sky, striking down on the Fallen Angel and the other heroes.
At this moment, the three heroes each displayed their abilities.
The Fallen Angel spread his wings and flew away, avoiding the attack of the black divine lightning.
The Radiant Envoy used teleportation to avoid the attack.
The White Dragon Saint thought that his dragon body was very strong, so he decided to take the attack head-on.
BOOM!
The black lightning struck the White Dragon Saint. He cried out in pain. However, he survived.
“Hmph! This is nothing!” he said. “Master’s magic protects me! You can use your lightning. I can take it a hundred times more!”
As soon as the White Dragon Saint finished his words, black lightning bolts fell one after another, striking him!
“Owwuuu!”
“Aowu!!!”
The White Dragon Saint howled in agony. Those who didn’t know better would have thought it was a wolf crying nearby.
“You are actually good!” The Fallen Angel praised. “I underestimated the resistance of dragons!”
He was very envious of the White Dragon Saint’s resistance to magic. The Dragon Clan indeed was strong when it came to fighting magic! Most spells’ effectiveness was reduced to 10% when they struck against dragons.
Even the Radiant Envoy looked envious. He also wanted to have such strong resistance to magical attacks.
“Hahaha!” The White Dragon Saint laughed. “You can’t be envious of my…”
The White Dragon Saint was still alive. However, his body slowly turned to stone. The Fallen Angel and Radiant Envoy looked aghast.
“He’s petrified!” The Fallen Angel’s voice trembled.
The Radiant Envoy came out of a stupor. “The direct damage of the black lightning is not that much of a problem. The real damage is the petrifying ability! After being hit by the black lightning, the creature will be petrified.”
The Radiant Envoy had a rather deep understanding of magic.
Even though he did not know much about Dark Magic, he could see the effects in front of his eyes!
The White Dragon stood there, frozen solid. His eyes open in disbelief.
“Don’t let it hit you!” said the Radiant Envoy. It was rare for him to warn the Fallen Angel, whom he despised from the bottom of his heart.
However, they had angered the Dark Enchanter, so they were all in the same boat now.
BOOM!
The black lightning struck down one after another.
The Fallen Angel dodged it frantically. His wing was struck by the black lightning.
“This is bad!” The Fallen Angel panicked. He was about to say something, but it was too late. He turned into stone.
“You’re the only one left now!” The Dark Enchanter looked at the Radiant Envoy.
The Fallen Angel was a Dark-Type hero. The Dark Enchanter knew that Dark-Types were tricksters, so she attacked him directly.
However, she hadn’t expected a Light-Type hero to be so shameless and low on morality. Since they had tricked her, the Dark Enchanter used a despicable trick on the Radiant Envoy too!
She aimed her black lightning toward the Radiant Envoy’s Lord, Evelyn.
