Cursing the little dragon in his heart, Unas also regretted his arrogance, realizing he shouldn't have ventured so far alone.
Just as I was hesitating whether to leave my hiding place and search ahead, a bright red light suddenly appeared on the edge of my retina— the Sense Undead had finally detected the movement!
The enemy was indeed the Forsaken. Just as he was about to make a move, he was horrified to find that one red dot after another was rapidly appearing from the edge of the thumbnail, pointing directly at him.
It turns out it wasn't that guy who revealed his whereabouts, but rather that his reinforcements arrived. Damn it, we have no choice but to fight!
Unas darted out from behind the tree, quickly retreating as if to flee, but in reality, every nerve in his body was taut, his entire focus on the surrounding movements.
Nathanos couldn't sit still any longer. The reinforcements had arrived and could complete the encirclement in less than a minute. But the enemy began to retreat at this moment, which was no coincidence.
I didn't expect this Paladin to have such keen senses. With his flying speed when he spreads his Light Wings, he could disappear in the blink of an eye.
Nathanos wedged the sack containing his prey between the tree trunks, silently drew his bow and arrows, determined to seize this opportunity to avenge his fallen comrades who had given their lives to protect him.
The sun had completely set, and it was almost impossible to see one's hand in front of one's face in the forest. Unas could neither see nor hear anything, and his unease grew with each passing second.
"Get out of the way!"
An urgent warning came from his chest, Unas instinctively fell to the side, not even having time to consider whether the demon's warning was real, because his body was already pushed to its limit by the sense of crisis.
A soft thud came from where they had just been standing—the sound of an arrow striking the ground. The arrow wasn't fast, but its advantage was its silence.
Unas hid behind a tree again, carefully observing the direction from which the arrow had come, but still couldn't see anything. Just as he was becoming anxious, the demon's voice rang out again, "If you want to see him, repeat after me!"
Bessarius immediately began chanting incantations on his own, giving Unas no time to ask questions or make a choice.
Unas, unwilling to abandon Luisa and run away alone, had no choice but to harden his heart and repeat after her.
The incantation was short, lasting less than ten seconds. As the last note faded, the thick mass of Fel surrounding the heart transformed into a tongue of blackish-green flame that surged upwards.
The flames instantly pierced through the Holy Power's defenses and reached his eyes. A piercing pain suddenly struck, as if two red-hot irons had been forcibly shoved into his eye sockets. Pain and darkness descended simultaneously, Unas thought he was about to go blind.
But colorful light soon appeared, a dazzling mix of light and shadow appearing in his mind, almost making him dizzy.
As the pain subsided, Unas gradually calmed down, and the chaotic colors in his mind slowly began to organize: his vision was filled with large patches of green light, some thin, some thick, some long, some short, forming the outlines of large trees, interspersed with star-like red and white dots.
Not far away, on a "green light tree," there was a shadowy blue figure, and further away on another light tree, there was a large red object.
"The God's Vision, the Curse Vision of my lord Sargeras! The very essence of the world lies before you, boy! I've bestowed upon you all the divine power I've accumulated these past few days, so put on a good show! Hehehehe!"
Bessarius's extravagant boasting greatly surprised Unas. He noticed that the Fel in his heart was indeed completely depleted. When did this demon become so generous?
And what's with this detached, spectator attitude? The unpredictable nature of this devil is particularly unsettling.
However, Unas also realized what the evil spell he had just witnessed was—the demon had given him a new pair of eyes that could observe energy.
The green light is the life energy flowing within the trees, while the red and white dots are various insects or small animals parasitizing the trees. Even the half-dead giant bats on the ground emit a small, faint red light.
Therefore, the dark blue figure can only be an enemy, and the red light further away is most likely Luisa!
This is a great opportunity. The enemy has no idea that their hiding place has been exposed. We can think about the demons later; the battle at hand is more important.
Unas immediately dashed off to the side, feigning a misjudgment, heading straight for a large tree to the lower left of the blue figure.
The figure suddenly twisted violently, indicating that it had made some movement. Now that Unas knew the opponent's location, it was impossible for him to be hit by an arrow again.
He circled around a large tree, slipped into the opponent's blind spot, then suddenly turned back, activating his Light Wings and drawing a golden arc through the air with lightning speed, piercing the trunk of the tree behind the blue figure with his sword.
The sword's edge was unstoppable, piercing through the tree with undiminished force. The blue figure had no time to dodge before being pierced through by the golden-red sword.
Unas unleashed the fire energy of three Flame Slashes in one go, triggering a violent explosion the next second.
Boom!
The tree, pierced by the shockwave, exploded in two and crashed to the ground. Half of the blue figure's shoulder disappeared, and the entire person was thrown away by the shockwave, landing on the ground, their fate unknown.
Unas didn't finish off the enemy, because more and more large and small, dark blue figures were rapidly appearing around him; the enemy reinforcements were about to surround him.
He leaped up the large tree where the big red light was, and sure enough, he found the sack containing Luisa. He picked it up, hoisted it onto his shoulder, and then flapped his Light Wings rapidly, aiming at the gap in the encirclement and flying headlong away.
Whoosh!
The sound of arrows piercing the air rang out from all around. Unas twisted his body and dodged all the hidden arrows—not because his movement skills had improved rapidly, but because the trajectory of the arrows was so clear in the Curse Vision that every detail was visible.
The demon really helped a lot this time; this Fel so useful, but I wonder what the side effects might be.
Before they could even celebrate breaking through the encirclement, bad news arrived: their Holy Power was already low, and carrying someone further depleted it. After flying only 300 meters, their Light Wings could no longer sustain them, Unas had to land back on the ground.
His internal condition was terrible; he only had a wisp of Holy Power left between his eyebrows, which was the seed of Holy Light and could neither be used nor employed.
Unable to unleash his skills, his combat power is halved. Fortunately, with the Emerald Tree as his Source of Life, his stamina is well maintained, and running back on foot will definitely not be a problem.
But the pursuers behind him wouldn't let him off easily. Alexstrasza Unas. This good-for-nothing was already throwing tantrums all the time, but she also let him down at crucial moments. What use was she anyway?! He would definitely find a way to teach her a lesson in the future.
As he ran wildly, thinking about how to humiliate the Little Red Dragon when he got back, a sudden, inexplicable sharp pain shot through his heart. This sudden blow during his high-speed run almost caused Unas to trip and fall.
He doesn't have any heart problems; this can only be the work of the devil.
"You bastard! What are you doing? Are you looking to die?"
"Heh heh!" Bessarius chuckled coldly from his chest. "I didn't want to do this either, but who told you to run so fast? It wouldn't be fun if those losers stopped chasing us!"
