Chapter 255: The Second Battleground Before the Torture Tower
As Lolth and Gandhi Alter fiercely battled, the anxious Isabella and Tina finally reached the high hill where the torture tower stood.
However, feeling the massive disturbance from the north, Tina and Isabella couldn’t help but feel a bit distracted.
"Is everything okay… Ms. Lolia?"
Tina couldn’t help but ask aloud.
"Since she is Lolth’s elder, I think it should be fine," Isabella said firmly, holding the "unconscious Lolth." "Let’s go… Tina, it’s enough that we focus on our task!"
"Okay, I understand."
Tina also held Lolth’s naturally hanging hand tightly and nodded.
The two turned again towards the torture tower, ready to move forward when they suddenly noticed two figures at the entrance of the tower.
A woman in a gray robe, with an ordinary face but a gentle appearance, and a scruffy guy dressed in a burlap robe, looking like a vagrant.
Chyzh and Ranster.
"You two… this way is blocked."
Ranster looked at Isabella and showed a faint smile.
The energy of legend level Middle Level was clearly revealed.
Isabella’s expression changed slightly, and she gently moved Lolth to Tina. After Tina skillfully secured Lolth behind her with two vines, Isabella drew her standard riding knife and held it in front of Tina.
"It’s the guy who was behind Gandhi Alter… and the one next to him is the cultist I met with Lolth before in Palgauro City."
An epic and a legendary figure match the setup of me and Tina.
However, I also need to protect the unconscious Lolth, which clearly makes it difficult to fight against them.
Tina heard this and understood, nodding slightly.
"How long can you hold out—I mean without letting the other person use any spells to interfere?"
She didn’t polite with Isabella and asked directly.
"Ten minutes… that’s a safe estimate."
Isabella answered immediately.
"That’s enough, but what if we add two more epic ones besides me?"
Tina continued to ask.
Isabella glanced at Tina and said, "Then maybe we can win while keeping Lolth safe… the problem is where they come from."
Tina pulled out a trumpet that looked just like Lolth’s and said to Isabella, "First, help me hold this."
As she said this, the Ranster, whom she had seen Lolth use, looked slightly surprised.
"Stop her!"
Chyzh and Ranster moved at the same time. Even though they were both spellcasters, they moved very quickly, almost simultaneously, charging towards Tina with dark Ultimate Power.
"Ice Barrier!"
But with a light shout from Isabella, both of them were blocked in front of her!
Cold mist spread over her armor, and she stood before Tina and Lolth like a fortress covered in frost, as if standing on a snowy plain for miles.
She opened her arms, almost completely giving up her own defense, relying solely on her burst of magical power to resist the encroaching Ultimate Power.
The magic-infused frost mist collided with the Ultimate Power, followed by a blast of "magic."
"Let the foolish know the truth; let the rules of this world be rewritten!"
Accompanied by Ranster’s chanting, after the Ultimate Power, a spell with level seven magical fluctuations hit Isabella solidly.
A magical structure made of geometric patterns hit Isabella’s body, making the girl sway slightly.
"This is so boring!"
Isabella looked at Ranster and gave him a smile in return.
"You annoying guy…"
Ranster’s smile became somewhat twisted.
Before he could cast his second spell, magical energy surged behind Isabella, and Tina’s voice rang out again.
"Maider, An, come to Torture Tower, we are under attack!"
Tina’s voice echoed through a loudspeaker over Hillenbrand Town, and at the same time, an elven spell was being completed!
"It might hurt a little, Isabella."
As she said this, all her magic was nearly drained, connecting to the "Spirit of Stars and Moon" that seemed to be in another world, opening a pathway.
Although it was still daytime, it seemed that a bright moon and shining stars appeared in the sky, casting down their light.
The moonlight and starlight passed through the Dimensional Barrier opened by Tina and gathered into a beam of light that poured into Isabella.
The powerful magic washed over Isabella’s body, instantly breaking the encroaching Ultimate Power, while also making Isabella feel a dual pain from deep within her soul and bones.
"Hiss—!"
Even Isabella, who could withstand a level seven spell and pretend to be completely fine, could not help but gasp.
She had every reason to suspect that Tina was still waiting for a chance to get back at her—though she also knew that was impossible!
It was just too painful!
The pain in her body felt like being extremely bloated after drinking ten barrels of water and eating a whole bag of soybeans, while her soul felt like watching someone else getting their nails pulled out and teeth knocked out.
But beyond the pain, Isabella could clearly feel that her power was temporarily increasing without any side effects!
It was as if the power that was meant to be hers flowed easily, and she easily crossed the small distance to reach the Legend Middle Level, even giving a hint of moving towards a higher stage.
"It’s my turn."
Ranster, who had just finished casting a level seven spell, and Chyzh, who was still acting as a human Ultimate Power machine, realized that the situation had changed but didn’t have time to react.
After Isabella’s cold words rang out, her most skilled charge attack followed.
"Frost!"
The white frost mist shifted from defense to offense, and with the support of the extraordinary energy at Legend Middle Level, it surged towards Ranster and Chyzh, forming a zigzag path of white frost!
Isabella moved swiftly, wielding her curved blade covered in ice crystals to strike at Ranster.
"Swish—"
Ranster quickly stepped back and cast a shield spell on himself, but the attack still cut his forearm, leaving a layer of white ice crystals.
Although the knife was of average quality and not very easy to handle, it was good enough!
Isabella’s figure had already passed him and reached Chyzh.
"This time… you can’t escape!"
Isabella struck down at Chyzh Winchester’s figure with a single blow, hitting her right shoulder, deeply embedding the blade within, almost severing the countess’s entire arm!
