Chapter 319: High-Stakes Battle, Two Against Two!
Chapter 319: High-Stakes Battle, Two Against Two!
After all, whether it was Aurora or Olivier, they were once powerful beings on the continent, and the Holy Realm Gateway was ultimately just an inanimate object. A mere incantation also had its limits in perfectly replicating the strength of a peak-level being.
(There was a reason why Aurora, summoned through the summoning incantation, only possessed the strength of one of Diabros' arms.)
When facing Aurora, Lord Shadow emerged unscathed, but in the Holy Land, he had to exchange blows to defeat Olivier's mirror image.
"Lord Shadow, Lord Nightshadow, according to our investigation, Aurora is the former Diabros, the Demon Man."
Upon seeing Aurora emerge from the summoning incantation, Alpha's words instantly excited Lord Shadow.
The former Lord Shadow had regretted that Diabros, the Demon Man, had already disappeared from this world, as such grand villainous bosses were the best material for showing off.
Unfortunately, by the time Sida arrived in this world, both the Three Heroes and Diabros had already become history.
Although it wasn't the real Diabros, Lord Shadow was thrilled to have the chance to encounter the legendary Diabros, the Demon Man. So, he immediately changed his original objective.
"Nocturne, don't you find this so-called 'Goddess's Trial' fascinating?
As the hero of this world, this thing called the Holy Realm Gateway has brought you the Three Heroes of the past as trial opponents.
And for me, who aspires to become a Shadow Power Seeker and may one day become a villain, this gateway has given me the strongest villain as an opponent.
A trial and inheritance? Isn't this the best script ever?"
Lord Shadow's words were conveyed through the incantation, so only Nocturne and the others in the Shadow Courtyard could hear them.
Upon hearing Lord Shadow's excited words, Nocturne showed a look of exasperation, while Alpha and the others fell into deep thought, clearly pondering Lord Shadow's words.
After all, in their eyes, Lord Shadow was a wise figure, and his sudden statement must have had some deeper meaning.
Moreover, it was quite a coincidence that Olivier, the hero, and Aurora, the Cataclysm Sorceress, appeared together.
Aurora, summoned with a mature and composed demeanor, slightly raised the corners of her lips, and in the next moment, she extended her hand forward, summoning a chain of blood-red chains that shot out in all directions!
"What the hell is this?! This Aurora, isn't she the trial opponent you summoned? Why am I being attacked too?"
The blood-red chains that shot down from the air were like nails, cascading from Aurora's body. Not only were they incredibly fast, but their power was also astonishingly over the top.
The hard rock surface, when faced with the falling blood-red chains, was shattered instantly as if it were tofu.
And although Aurora was summoned due to Lord Shadow's arrival, when she launched her attack, she indiscriminately included Nocturne in her assault.
"Boom—Boom—Boom—Boom!"
Facing the blood-red chains that fell like spears from the sky, Nocturne on the ground could only dodge continuously with agile movements.
And to make matters worse, as he evaded Aurora's attacks, Olivier, holding the Holy Sword, charged towards him.
The Three Heroes who fought the Demon Man and the Cataclysm Sorceress had teamed up. Could things get any more absurd?
In the Yecheng world, it was clear that Aurora's blood chains were mostly aimed at him and Shadow, and they weren't specifically targeting Olivier.
Damn that Cataclysmic Sorceress! She's the one who took down one of your Three Heroes! Have you completely lost your morals?
Having just dodged Aurora's blood chain attack, Olivier immediately charged forward. Faced with the blue holy sword slashing down at him, Yecheng had no choice but to hastily create a light sword with his mana.
This was the elven magic he had learned from his uncle in the "Otherworldly Uncle" world. As a mage swordsman, Yecheng was reluctant to resort to such tactics.
But with the Cataclysmic Sorceress as an opponent, if he insisted on adhering to his so-called knightly spirit, he would be defeated in no time.
"Ding——————!"
Due to the hasty defense, when Olivier's blue holy sword slashed towards Yecheng's light sword, the powerful impact caused Yecheng to be instantly knocked away.
Up in the spectator stands, Kreaya and the others witnessed this scene, their hearts leaping into their throats.
One hero, Olivier, was already a formidable opponent, and now there was also the Cataclysmic Sorceress. This level of combat was far beyond what a trial should entail.
On the other side, facing Aurora's dense barrage of blood chains, Shadow nimbly dodged in the air. However, the red chains, under Aurora's mana control, could also turn and refract.
Soon, Shadow's figure was completely trapped within a blood-red cage.
Watching Shadow trapped in the cage, Aurora revealed a slight smile. She then conjured two massive blood spears and, with a single swing of her hand, launched them towards Shadow's position.
"It seems I'm the one trapped, but in reality, it's you who's entangled in chains."
As the blood spears shot towards him, Shadow tightened his grip on his fine sword and focused his mana. The next moment, a dazzling slash not only cut through the blood cage but also shattered the blood spears flying at him.
Moreover, as he dispelled all attacks, Shadow's figure suddenly appeared before Aurora. Seeing her slightly startled expression, he said, "It's over. I'll put you out of your misery soon."
Just as Shadow's fine sword was about to strike Aurora again, Olivier's figure suddenly appeared, blocking Aurora.
With his immense mana channeled into it, the blue holy sword in his hand transformed into a massive golden greatsword.
Seeing the descending mana greatsword, Shadow revealed a hint of surprise. He could only grip his black fine sword tightly and switch to defense.
"Clang——————!"
A sound like a bell rang out in the air, and the next moment, Shadow's figure was knocked down from the air, sliding a considerable distance along the ground.
"Yecheng, what are you doing? That hero, Olivier, is your opponent!
Since she's your opponent, you should keep a close eye on her. I was about to win, but this guy suddenly showed up and got in the way.
If you can't handle it, I'll use my true strength and take out your opponent as well!"
Shadow Lord, having been repelled, glared at Yecheng beside him, his tone filled with dissatisfaction. He was well aware that many of his fangirls were present, and this display of prowess could have earned him full marks.
