Chapter 29: Assassination of the Interrogator
Because Lolth sensed the presence of “malicious intent” beforehand, she immediately realized the direction of the other party the moment the “malicious intent” locked onto her.
“That warehouse?”
She looked at a warehouse controlled by the Barbarian Demon clan, feeling puzzled.
Why would there be a presence of “malicious intent” in the Barbarian Demon’s warehouse?
And… is this malicious intent specifically targeting her?
Could it be that a sentient Divine Artifact, fake Divine Artifact, or Sacred Tool has been mixed in as ordinary loot?
Considering that this warehouse is managed by the notorious Barbarian Demon clan known for being rough, simple-minded, and lacking in intelligence even within the Abyss, Lolth thought it was not entirely impossible.
She just couldn’t explain why she was the target.
However, Lolth was unsure of the full story behind this situation at the moment, so her priority was to stay on guard.
The preparation for space magic is ready, so if anything unusual comes towards them, they will immediately teleport back to the torture tower!
As a last resort, they could switch Tina with themselves as a shield!
Since the attackers are most likely from the Holy Alliance, they will probably show mercy when they see their ally!
After Lolth made a plan in her mind, the warehouse she had targeted also made strange noises!
“Boom!”
There was a huge magical surge and explosive noise, shattering the thick stone wall of the warehouse!
Then, Lolth saw a girl covered in blood rushing out from behind that stone wall.
Despite her broken armor and bent lance, nothing could hide the terrifying magical surge and fierce killing intent emanating from the girl!
The presence alone made all demon races sense it in an instant…
Here, a human knight appeared!
“Human? Legend?”
Lolth was surprised, the appearance was even more unexpected than she thought!
She didn’t have time to figure out which foolish Barbarian Demon had imprisoned a legendary knight, even a severely injured one, as a trophy.
Because the wounded young female knight, after breaking through the stone wall, didn’t stop and charged towards her.
Isabella’s charge crossed the remaining short distance of just over ten meters even before the falling stones hit the ground.
A faint frost momentarily appeared on her battered and blood-stained armor, countless tiny ice particles formed in the air due to the overflow of magic and sudden drop in temperature, resembling white frosty mist.
Instead of spreading, this frost mist instantly pointed towards… the direction where Lolth was standing.
In front of Lolth, as the last tiny suspended ice crystal took shape, within this white frost resembling a path, Isabella’s figure created a shadow within it.
“Frozen.”
She stood not far from Lolth, and firmly spoke two words.
Her powerful words showed no sign of weakness, as she smoothly executed the martial skills passed down from the Schwarzwald family, hiding the fact that she was already heavily wounded!
This was not a result of a brief rest.
Upon breaking the stone wall, Isabella immediately started burning her own life force without any hesitation!
Trading life force for magic!
Since she had already decided to die here, she decided to shine even brighter!
She was a knight of Ryman, the eldest daughter of the Schwarzwald family!
Even though she could only take down one elite level succubus…
But since the other party is an important interrogator for the Demon Army…
It’s worth it!
At this moment, she had already stood within three steps in front of Lolth.
That was also the distance that her slightly curved knight’s lance could attack.
The tip of the lance was also covered with white icy frost, like a poisonous snake, thrusting towards Lolth’s throat!
As Lolth watched this fatal blow approaching her, she realized that she might not be able to escape using spatial magic.
Even though she was prepared to act, the sudden attack speed of this severely injured Legend Level Knight truly exceeded her imagination.
The other party was just… too fast!
She had to resort to Plan B quickly.
That is…
Pull Tina over here!
After all, magic that swaps two people’s positions is much faster to activate than mid-range teleportation magic.
“Let the restraints of space be briefly broken here for me, deceiving truth and reality to bring forth miracles, flipping the ends of the balance, connecting the head and tail of the serpent, joining the positive and negative of the paper ring, piercing the inside and outside of the magic bottle, let this spatial exchange become a new reality and reveal itself!”
Lolth quickly chanted the spell like rapping at a speed of twenty words per 0.1 second. Magic began resonating, and the rules of space were altered and distorted by powerful magic.
Tina suddenly appeared in front of her.
“Here we go!”
Watching the scene change before her eyes, Lolth was momentarily distracted and found herself swapping positions with Tina.
Both Tina and Isabella were shocked!
Because Lolth’s spellcasting process was too fast, and spatial magic is one of the most mysterious types of magic, it is difficult for normal people to sense subtle spatial rule fluctuations.
So, both of them didn’t know what had happened!
Whether it was Tina suddenly blocking in front of Lolth, or Isabella appearing suddenly in front of Tina’s gun, in their astonishment, maybe due to being both high-ranking members of the Holy Alliance, their thoughts unexpectedly aligned.
“Indeed, my soul has completely surrendered, valuing the safety of this succubus so much! My body… moved on its own in an unconscious state!”
“This Moon Elf has truly fallen and been controlled. She even used her body to shield this succubus… She has become nothing more than a puppet!”
Although Isabella had originally planned to kill the “fallen traitor” and free this controlled Moon Elf, at the moment of the sudden appearance of the latter, she couldn’t help but hesitate for a moment.
Hesitation would affect her shooting speed!
The frost-covered long spear paused momentarily, then stopped in front of Tina’s throat.
The eyes of the two individuals met.
Tina’s eyes were filled with despair and pleading.
“Kill me!”
She seemed to be saying so.
As Isabella looked at the other person’s appearance, her eyes once again became resolute.
“Then let me relieve you!”
Lolth stood behind Tina. Although she couldn’t see the eye contact between the two people, she suddenly felt Isabella’s intense killing intent rising again, and she understood that Isabella was about to harm Tina.
“Wow, is the Holy Alliance really this ruthless even to their own people?”
Feeling the surge of magic from Isabella again, she couldn’t help but curse.
In this situation, the tip of the gun was only 0.01 centimeters away from Tina’s throat.
She was an ordinary succubus…
“No choice, I have to reveal my trump card!”
