Chapter 342: The Shadow Dancer
Boom!
Loud explosions echoed at the place where Minaret was, as beams of light and shadow flowed, and a terrifying power erupted there!
"We did it!" Ricardo exclaimed joyfully; Minaret was too careless. How many eighth-tier attacks was that?
Before he could celebrate, the light and smoke cleared, revealing nothing; there was no trace of Minaret!
"Protect the Cardinal!" Purlimont shouted.
Buzz, buzz, buzz…
Rays of divine light descended from the sky, Pastor’s Eye of Truth!
Where is everyone? Where could they be?
"Over there!" the Pope of the War God Church was the first to notice.
Suddenly, Minaret was only a hundred meters away from Ricardo and Purlimont, without anyone realizing when that happened!
Minaret’s shadow was faint and unclear, just a blur passing by.
Such quick movements, such fast speed!
In fact, she wasn’t even running in a straight line.
In the blink of an eye, Minaret moved from the air to the ground, as if she had crossed space itself.
Everyone’s thoughts before were correct; in front of Minaret, even an eighth-tier Legend Card has lost its power and can’t delay anything!
To challenge a thief of such high rank, one must use a ninth-tier extraordinary item.
However, Minaret has already made her statement, and no one is foolish enough to use such an item.
What if only I use it, and no one else does…? It’s okay if Minaret is held down here, but if a Ninth-tier Thief holds a grudge against her, that could be a big problem.
"Here!" Ricardo shouted, a moment later than the Pope of the Flame War God.
The eighth-tier present couldn’t even turn around in response to the speed of the ninth-tier.
Many Nature Mage wizards wanted to cast spells, but they couldn’t catch a glimpse of Minaret’s figure.
The eighth-tier Pastor was unable to even track Celica’s normal healing during the fight with Minaret, let alone face the ninth-tier Minaret!
Many warriors from the God of War-related churches charged forward, trying to intercept her, at least to make contact, but they couldn’t even keep up with Minaret’s tail lights.
Minaret moved like a fish in the ocean, making even the eighth-tier warriors dizzy.
She was too fast; being a Ninth-tier Thief, plus the abilities of a dark elf and the boost of nighttime, even her speed on flat ground could not be matched by those charging warriors!
These people, without using any ninth-tier extraordinary items, truly wanted to stop Minaret, but they could not; Minaret viewed them as nothing!
Between Minaret and Ricardo, only the Knights Templar legionnaire leader, Purlimont, remained.
"You won’t get past me! Let me show you the power of dawn!"
[Name: Dawn Shield]
[Type: Spell]
[Star Level: 8]
[Grade: Golden Legend]
[Job Restriction: Knight]
[Description: This shield protects the dawn! When placed on the true Dawn Shield, it can unleash endless power.]
[This card can only reach its full potential when held with a heart of protection!]
Buzz!
The Dawn Shield surrounded Ricardo like a mountain.
Even though Purlimont’s Dawn Shield is just a replica, it is still a level nine replica.
Purlimont had no light defense, and his sword swung out.
[Name: Blade of Dawn]
[Type: Spell]
[Star Level: 8]
[Rank: Golden Legend]
[Occupational Restriction: Knight]
[Description: Let the enemies of dawn be purified by the light of dawn! If empowered on the true Sword of Dawn, it can unleash endless power.]
[Blade of Dawn, charge forward bravely!]
Buzz!
The sword light filled with laws wound its way toward Minaret.
Minaret dodged swiftly, but the sword light followed closely behind like a shadow.
Buzz!
Minaret’s bone blade pointed at Purlimont’s neck.
Purlimont was shocked and instinctively took a step back.
That half step made a small crack in his Dawn Sword and Shield combination.
A hint of mockery appeared in Minaret’s eyes.
A superb weapon of level nine is only as good as the person using it.
Celica did not have a level nine weapon or extraordinary item on her!
If it were her, she wouldn’t have taken that half step back!
Facing Celica’s protection, even Minaret could not get past.
In front of Celica’s sword, even Minaret could only take it head-on!
Is this the leader of the Dawn Knights Order? What a big position!
Bang!
Minaret seemed to swing the bone blade casually, and the end of the bone blade hit Purlimont on the back of his head.
[Name: Bludgeon]
[Category: Spell]
[Star Level: 3]
[Quality: Blue Rare]
[Occupational Restriction: Thief]
[Description: Hey, there is a fat sheep here]
With a simple strike, Purlimont felt dizzy.
Purlimont became very anxious; this strike only controlled him for a moment, but for a top thief, that moment was enough!
Minaret made a graceful turn and glided past Purlimont, moving with such incredible speed that it seemed supernatural.
Her steps were not like a thief’s sudden attack; instead, they resembled a dance, a dance in the shadows, a dance symbolizing death!
In an instant, it seemed Minaret grasped the very concept of death.
The transition from eighth-tier to ninth-tier happened in an instant, years of accumulation transforming into reality at that moment.
The earlier shadow in his heart, that hint of fear about breaking through to ninth-tier, those shackles on his spirit, melted away…
A sudden realization struck Minaret; she understood what she was missing—this calmness, this fearlessness, this unmatched aura, and the determination to protect everything!
The way of the assassin was fully realized in that moment.
Everything is an illusion, and everything is allowed!
Ricardo wanted to fight back, but Minaret was like a shadow, as if it didn’t exist, and he could never catch it.
Ricardo wanted to find something better to defend himself; he wished for Aurora Glory to be more intense, to hold back Minaret…
Unfortunately, he could not do it!
The bone blade ahead followed him like the Grim Reaper, bringing him deep despair.
There was no way to escape!
Ricardo’s mind seemed to be emptied, as the bone blade sliced through his neck, quick and clean, without a moment’s hesitation.
Whoosh!
When Purlimont reacted, he had already lost sight of Minaret.
"Over there!" The Pope of the Flame War God Church pointed, and everyone saw Minaret.
Now, she was already a hundred meters away.
She had a new scar on her body, a mark from the Blade of Dawn.
She took that sword blow head-on.
But, what does it matter?
The Red Bishop Ricardo of the Church of the Dawn Goddess used a level nine extraordinary item to cast Aurora Glory, and died under a simple bone blade in the hands of Minaret while protected by the leader of the Dawn Knights Order.
Minaret brought the bloody bone blade to her lips and gave it a gentle lick.
The injured Dark Elf King stood there; who would dare to step forward?
