Chapter 1597: Chapter 516: The War That Finally Arrived (6k)_2
Using the branches that grasp the giant dragon as a medium, the pale gray apocalypse magic power rapidly broke through the magical defenses constructed by superpower cores along the dragon’s body surface, amplified by the concept of "flow".
The force of decay directly acted within, quickly spreading to every corner of the giant dragon’s body.
The giant dragon in hand had already been severely wounded in the previous battle, and the power of decay swiftly took away its last bit of life.
With its internal energy nearly depleted, even the signs of falling couldn’t be formed, sinking silently into decay.
Watching their companion die in front of them, the remaining two giant dragons looked on with reluctance.
But since they realized just recently that it was impossible to rescue anyone from Fan Mao, they had anticipated this moment. Now, rather than worrying about others, they must consider whether they can successfully escape themselves.
Without any hesitation, each took out a metal badge intending to activate it.
This movement didn’t escape Bai Yi’s notice. Since Bai Yi had already made a move, how could he forget about them?
With magic power imbued with the "flow" characteristic, he activated the extraordinary plants on his body, using them as power to perform micro-control over his frozen body, aiming the cannon in his hand at one of the giant dragons.
The blazing white light cannon exploded almost point-blank, instantly engulfing half of one giant dragon’s body.
"What a pity, I couldn’t capture the other one."
After the light cannon was fired, the freezing power vanished, looking towards the direction where the power of faith appeared earlier, the believer who released this divine art had indeed disappeared.
Along with other believers who also activated their teleportation ability during the freezing gap, making all the laid ambushes useless.
After moving the frozen body a bit, Bai Yi looked again towards the spot where the other giant dragon disappeared.
With her current means, it’s indeed a bit difficult to kill two giant dragons instantly within this brief time.
There aren’t enough targets for her to draw magic power from, and her own plants are not inexhaustible; the maximum she could instantaneously fire was one more energy cannon.
Any further shots would truly come at the cost of her plant legion’s lives.
Although she couldn’t retain more high-level believers in the end, luring out such crucial skills wasn’t entirely a loss.
Moreover...
"Being able to forcibly delay for a full hour this time is already beyond expectations.
But after this occurrence, those believers probably won’t be fooled again. Even if they see me alone, they’re likely not to act; similar tactics can’t be used again."
Raising the giant dragon’s corpse in her hand before her, she searched it briefly and pulled out the badge just used by those believers.
"So this is it, huh..."
She had seen this badge many times but never managed to obtain one.
The enemies she killed either did not leave intact corpses, like the dragon she destroyed with a single cannon along with its badge, or there was no time to manage corpses after killing, and they were already searched by the Three Great Civilizations by the time she returned, taken as key items in their faith system.
"I see, it can be used this way too...
It differs from magic items or magic scrolls, but the effect is similar; impressive technology."
She doesn’t need the instruments of the Three Great Civilizations to see the essence of the badge; from a high-dimensional perspective, the power of faith within it is clear.
To the Three Great Civilizations, it might be an essential study material for researching the faith system, but for her, it only retains its most primitive technological value.
Having seen its essence, Bai Yi put it away, preparing to take it back as part of her contribution.
Disengaging from the Tree-man’s body, the massive Tree-man shrunk again under superpower control, finally releasing the thick branches and vines entwining the dragon.
Keeping eyes on all the teleportation gates until they closed, the spreading power of faith disappeared in its dimension, with all battling high-tier extraordinaires having already wrapped up the battlefield’s simple handling.
"Fan Mao, you actually killed two high-level believers again?"
The two dragon corpses drifted in space; compared to Bai Yi, who had disengaged from the Tree-man state, the targets were much larger.
Approaching high-tiers easily spotted them, couldn’t help but exclaim.
"What a shame one escaped..."
"Fan Mao, you’re joking. If that’s considered a shame, wouldn’t we all have to perform seppuku?"
They were directly involved in the previous battle, even though situations were under control; the fighting high-tier extraordinaries were really at a disadvantage and barely holding on.
The believers almost exhausted their power at the end, and similarly, so had they.
Let alone seizing the opportunity to kill their opponents; not being killed was proof of their effort.
All were waiting for those friends who ambushed in advance to support at critical moments for a chance to capture their opponents.
Unlike Fan Mao who could, relying on his strength, tackle three yet manage to conserve power and kill two in the end.
That’s simply monstrous.
Similar thoughts arose unprompted in their hearts, one high-tier extraordinaire who had ambushed earlier laughed heartily:
"Haha, sorry, at the last moment, I was affected by that peculiar freezing divine art, couldn’t make a move..."
