Roaring sounds came from all directions, all buildings collapsed and shattered in an instant, and the ground began to shake violently, opening up bottomless ravines.

"Now, let me show you what a true magician can do in his own field." Poe Derrian's voice no longer sounded old and weak, but was full of strength and majesty. His skinny arm slowly raised, pointing at Kourt in the distance.

The next moment, the ground beneath Kourt's feet collapsed without warning.

Countless huge stone slabs with sharp edges flew up from the ground, and instantly turned into sharp stone spikes, encircling the area where Kourt was from all directions.

"A little trick." Kourt's deathly gray eyes flashed with a trace of disdain.

He did not dodge, but allowed those sharp stone thorns to pierce and tear the body he occupied. However, at the moment when all the stone thorns were closed, his already dilapidated body strangely turned into a cold black mist exuding endless resentment and death, and easily escaped from the gap.

The black mist re-condensed not far away, and once again transformed into Joseph. However, most of the wounds on his body had recovered, and his face, which was originally bloody and bloody, had become relatively complete at this moment, but the sickly paleness and deathly aura became more intense.

"Poe Derrian, do you think I will still be as stupid as I was a hundred years ago, and confront you head-on on this land that you control?" Kourt's voice carried a cold smile, "This city is your creation, but don't forget, it is also my territory. Every skeleton sleeping here will obey my orders."

As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his hand and shook it gently towards the undead pirates who were petrified by Poe Drion in the square.

Click——click——

Accompanied by a hair-raising cracking sound, the petrified layer on the surface of the pirates cracked and peeled off inch by inch. Deep in the crack, the faint green flame was re Ignite.

The petrified undead pirates became "alive" again.

Not only that, in every corner of this Sunken City, under the ruins of collapsed buildings, deep in the streets that have been buried by silt and sediment for hundreds of years, there are countless long-decayed skeletons belonging to former Lorenteen residents. In their eye sockets, the same Soulfire that exudes an ominous atmosphere also lights up.

They struggled to crawl out of the ground, stood up unsteadily, and gathered into a silent and terrifying torrent of bones, staggering toward the square.

For a time, the army of the dead and the awakening city formed a clear confrontation.

"Very good." Poe Derrien looked at the scene in front of him. Instead of showing any tension on his face, he showed a look of satisfaction. "Let you and I end up in this common cage."

He raised his hands flat, and the vast magic power poured out from his thin body without reservation.

The ground of the entire square, together with the surrounding building debris, was completely alive at this moment. Huge stone arms stretched out from the wall, and the cracked earth turned into surging earth waves. Countless stone pillars were like awakening giants, waving their heavy bodies and smashing towards the army of the dead.

Kourt sneered and commanded his army of skeletons. They faced the huge stone creations fearlessly, using their fragile bones to hit the hard rocks, and using their weak Soulfire to burn the cold walls. With every collision, pieces of bones were crushed into powder, but more dead people would continue to pour in from the depths of the ruins, one after another, seemingly endless.

For a time, the entire square turned into a battlefield from myths and legends. Magic and death energy collided with each other, and the huge roar was intertwined with the crisp sound of broken bones. The escaping energy impact caused more cracks in the already crumbling sea water Sky Dome. The cold sea water poured down like a flood that burst the embankment, adding a bit of chaos and despair to this apocalyptic battle.

"What are you waiting for!" Kourt roared at the crowd who were still watching during the fierce battle, "Do you want to accompany this madman and be buried in this underwater tomb? He has gone completely crazy. Even if we don't take action, you won't be able to survive when he solves us!"

When Spade K heard this, a trace of excitement flashed in his eyes. He yelled at the joker and Heart A beside him, "What the hell are you watching? Come with me!"

With that said, he was the first to rush out, the ring in his hand lit up again, and two rays of gain light accurately fell on joker and Heart A. The joker's figure merged into the shadows again, and Heart A let out a scream, bypassing the center of the battlefield and outflanking Poe Derrian.

With the addition of these few players, the battle situation seems to have undergone subtle changes. But, can it really change the situation? Poe Drian didn't even turn his head.

He just snorted, and an invisible wave of magic power swept across, and the shadow where the joker was hiding became strangely thin and transparent, leaving his body invisible. Immediately afterwards, a huge stone hand suddenly stretched out from the ground under his feet, and grasped him fiercely in the palm of his hand with an irresistible force.

No matter how hard Joker struggled, he couldn't shake the solid stone cage.

On the other side, before Heart A could get close to Poe Derrian, the ground under her feet suddenly turned into a quicksand-like whirlpool, instantly swallowing and trapping her, making it impossible to escape.

"A bunch of noisy ants." Poe Derian's voice was cold and indifferent, as if he was evaluating a few insignificant insects. He didn't even look at them again, all his attention was still focused on the confrontation with Kourt.

The battle in the square became more and more intense. However, although Kourt was able to deal with Poe Drian with his nearly infinite army of the dead, anyone with a discerning eye could see that he was always on the suppressed side.

"Kourt is only moving with the help of the mutilated corpse. He himself has not been resurrected, so he cannot be Poe Derian's opponent in any case."

Li Wen said to Moria not far away while avoiding the incoming gravel and collapsed ground.

Moria inserted the weapon into the ground to steady himself, with a serious expression on his face, "So, what do you think Miss Mephisto?"

"Don't you find it strange?" Li Wen's pupils turned amber-like red and yellow, obviously entering Witch State, "Whether it's Kourt or Poe Derrien, they have been trying to get us to align with each other from the beginning. Whether it is lies or coercion and inducement, they are all methods used to achieve this goal. Aren't you curious as to why this is?"
