Out-of-Spec Item: The Stolen Sealing Crystal

Everyone was stunned.

All eyes turned to Tang Zheng, who was controlling the All- Angel with the power of surveillance. Captain Nigun also looked over in astonishment.

Gained 270,000 experience points.

[Experience Bar: 289235/310000]

Wow, so much experience!

Tang Zheng was a little surprised, then noticed everyone's gaze on him.

"They actually... wiped them out all at once?"

Tang Zheng quickly feigned surprise and bewilderment.

At this moment, even the slowest person would realize that the Death Knight, having just been struck by the Principality, was clearly on the verge of death.

That's why he was easily killed by the Angel that Tang Zheng was manipulating.

"Tsk tsk, your limelight's been stolen, Captain Nigun." Clementine, holding a short cone in both hands, chuckled softly beside Captain Nigun, a strange glint in her eyes.

"Eliminating the enemy is the most important thing." Captain Nigun said with a grim face, but his tone betrayed his undisguised surprise.

"Given the circumstances just now, such a reaction is truly surprising time and again."

Clementine's eyes narrowed slightly, her short, tousled golden hair swaying as she tilted her head, obscuring half of her eyes.

She knew why Nigun was so surprised, because she was just as surprised herself.

As members of the [Black Scripture], each member must learn about various kinds of monsters, with Legendary Undead like the "Death Knight" being of paramount importance.

The [God of Death], one of the Six Great Gods of the Theocracy, possesses the ability to control and summon Death Knight, and has information about these Undead.

I know quite a bit about both Clementine and Captain Nigun.

Even so!

To truly witness the Principality and the awe-inspiring power of purification they unleash.

Even knowing the detailed information about the Death Knight, Clementine still subconsciously believed that the Death Knight would be eliminated directly.

As predicted in the intelligence, death did not actually disappear.

This process.

Let alone Nigun.

Clementine was also immersed in the terrifying power of the Principality and hadn't recovered yet, while Tang Zheng was able to react immediately and launch an attack.

"Something seems a little off, little brother~"

Clementine's lips curled upwards, and her gaze towards Tang Zheng revealed a hint of fervor and interest:

"Such decisiveness doesn't match her outward appearance at all."

A brief silence--

"Ah, we won!"

"Aww!"

"..."

"The Death Knight has been defeated!"

Large numbers of Demi-Human began to cheer excitedly; to ordinary Demi-Human, the Death Knight was like a shadow looming over the Abelion Hills.

That ability to continuously create Undead even led many ordinary Demi-Human to despair, believing their race would be wiped out.

Now that the Death Knight is gone, this pent-up emotion has been completely released!

However.

"Rainbow Scales" Rokesh "Beast General" Hectowaizes were even more nervous than before.

The Angel that humans summoned, who were beyond their comprehension, made them feel utterly insecure!

The two people from [Zurrernorn] were the most fearful and nervous at this moment.

Are you kidding me!

It's incredible that they can use this kind of power.

"Teleportation"

Without the slightest hesitation, the Gray-robed Magic Caster activated a Teleportation spell and vanished as if fleeing.

They immediately abandoned the dark armored knights who had been Teleportation with them.

"Old man, you bedbug!"

Upon witnessing this, the dark-armored knight gritted his teeth and cursed, cold sweat beading on his forehead, as he fled in panic.

Remedios pushed off the ground with both legs and leaped forward like a spring. "Don't even think about escaping!"

Apart from the two of them.

Tang Zheng controlled his Shadow Clone, also pretending to flee for his life, and used Teleportation magic to disappear together.

In the blink of an eye.

The enemy's strongest Death Knight perished, two Magic Caster escaped, leaving only the dark-armored knight relying on Brute Strength to run and flee on the ground.

The power of just one "Seventh-Tier Principality".

The situation on the field was completely reversed. Even the most powerful Magic Caster and Warrior, who were considered the pinnacle of human strength and had entered the "Hero Realm," had no choice but to flee for their lives.

This is the power of God!

It's only natural to be afraid.

Captain Nigun inwardly screamed, but maintained a calm demeanor on his face.

"Let all the wicked turn to ashes under this sublime power."

Captain Nigun gazed into the distance at the fleeing dark-armored knight, one hand gripping the Sealing Crystal tightly, the other raised:

Pay the price for your stupidity!

The Principality once again shone with divine light.

"Wait, Captain Nigun!"

"Remedios, still in pursuit..." Not far away, Kelart's expression changed drastically, and he quickly spoke up to stop them.

Now!

Remedios is very close to the enemy, and if the Principality launches an attack, it is very likely that her sister will be affected.

Captain Nigun seemed to completely ignore Kelart's warning and controlled the Angel to launch an attack. "Extreme Holy Strike!"

The Principality shone brightly.

A pure, clean, and holy power descended almost instantly upon the dark-armored knight's head.

The scent of death was palpable.

It was as if the soul wanted to break free from the body and escape at that moment.

"Invulnerable Fortress!!"

The dark-armored knight's eyes instantly turned bloodshot, and he let out a desperate roar, using all his strength.

Swish!

"Ah--"

A holy light enveloped the black-armored knight, terrifying energy engulfing him, followed by a piercing scream.

"Ah!"

Another scream rang out.

However, the voice did not come from the Dark Armor Knight, but from Remedios. The two were too close and were thrown back by the aftershock.

The holy light dissipated.

Where the black-armored knight once stood, only the broken black armor and the Rotten Sword stuck in the ground, swaying slightly and emitting white steam, remained.

"One of the Four Great Demon Swords, the Corrupted Sword Rotten Sword, has been successfully retrieved." Captain Nigun's indifferent voice slowly rang out.

"Nigun!"

A cold voice came from behind.

Kelart clenched his fist beneath his loose sleeves and spoke in an almost hostile tone, "What were you doing just now? I want an explanation."

"Does the Slane Theocracy want to start a war with the Holy Kingdom?!"

The Cleric Corps and Holy Knights simultaneously raised their staffs and longswords, aiming them at the [Sunlight Scripture].

A tense atmosphere erupted between the two sides!

Faced with this situation.

Captain Nigun's gaze remained calm. "No need to be so tense, Commander Kelart. The power of the highest Angel far surpasses ordinary people's understanding and imagination."

"That pure, holy power can only cause serious harm to the Undead and the wicked."

That brings us to this.

Captain Nigun sneered instead.

"If Captain Remedios suffered serious injuries, then you should suspect whether Captain Remedios is disrespectful to 'God' and not a devout believer."

Captain Nigun raised his voice noticeably.

This caused a change in the expressions of both the Holy Knights and the Cleric Corps.

Kelart's expression turned even uglier, and the hostility in his eyes intensified.

Seeing the atmosphere between the two sides become tense.

Tang Zheng couldn't help but feel a headache coming on, and prepared to step forward.

But at that moment—

"Tang!"

"Quickly manipulate the Angel and destroy the shields left against the Death Knight!"

Gojon's roar came from the center of the battlefield.

He was one of the first to witness the birth of the Death Knight, so he naturally knew that this black tower shield was the key to the Death Knight's birth.

"They've finally shown themselves."

Tang Zheng immediately sensed something and looked toward the location of the black tower shield.

Beside the black tower shield riddled with cracks.

A figure shrouded in black mist appeared out of thin air.

"Lightning Strike!"

The alliance leader's hoarse chanting rang out first.

The burst of blue lightning transformed into twisted bolts, striking the Observer Dominion.

With a "bang".

The Observer Dominion instantly turned into white specks of light and vanished.

"This Demon God Rank power must have involved the use of an extraordinary tool."

The leader didn't even glance at the Observer Dominion, but instead slightly raised his head to look at the holy and powerful Principality hovering high in the sky:

"The Theocracy is as wealthy and powerful as ever."

In this world, there exist three types of extraordinary magical items that even the most elite nobles and Royal Family of various countries know very little about.

One type is a relic of the Eight Greed Kings.

One type is Dragon's Secret Treasure crafted by a true high-ranking Dragon Lords using special magic.

The last one.

It is a treasure left behind by the Six Great Gods. The current Slane Theocracy was built and passed down 600 years ago after the Six Great Gods descended.

"[Zurrernorn] Alliance Leader!"

Captain Nigun snapped out of his daze at that moment.

Without wasting any words in the face of such a dangerous figure, he raised the Sealing Crystal and manipulated the Principality, preparing to launch an attack.

But the alliance leader is faster.

"Ruinous Bone Prison"!

A blue magic circle appeared beneath Captain Nigun's feet, followed by a large number of bone spikes emerging from the circle.

Puff! Puff! Puff!

In an instant, the hard bone spurs halted Captain Nigun's movements, piercing both his arms and thighs simultaneously.

Made of special metal threads and enchanted, this metal armor, which offers higher defense than regular armor, did not pose the slightest obstacle.

"Ah!"

Captain Nigun screamed in agony; the pain of his arm being pierced caused him to loosen his grip on the Sealing Crystal.

A "click" sound.

The Sealing Crystal fell to the ground with a crisp sound.

The Cleric of the [Sunlight Scripture] paused, taking a deep breath.

"Teleportation!"

The air vibrated slightly.

The leader appeared before Captain Nigun, a stiff smile appearing on his face behind the black mist, "Use it to offset the price of destroying the Death Knight."

As the leader spoke calmly, he extended his withered arm from the black mist and reached for the Sealing Crystal on the ground.

Seeing the leader's actions, Captain Nigun's eyes widened in terror. Ignoring the pain of bone spurs piercing his body, he struggled and roared frantically:

Clementine! Clementine!

He kept Clementine by his side just in case.

"Windstride!" Clementine's delicate voice rang out.

Whoosh!

Golden, fluffy hair suddenly spread out, and as if teleporting, it appeared out of thin air in front of the leader. The short snout in its hand pierced the air, precisely aiming for the leader's heart.

Bang!

A semi-transparent barrier stood in front of the short cone.

This seemingly powerful attack was rendered unable to advance even an inch further.

"Dragon Lightning,"

The alliance leader spoke calmly, and a torrent of lightning erupted from his palm.

Boom!

A dazzling burst of Lightning Bolt erupted.

Everyone only felt a blur before their eyes, followed by an explosion of Berserk power. Clementine was blasted away, his fate unknown.

"Put it down, no--"

Captain Nigun watched helplessly as the Alliance Leader held the Sealing Crystal in his hand, coughing up blood as he roared.

Those are tools left behind by God.

Such a treasure is more precious than his life; if it falls into the hands of the enemy, he will be a sinner against the Theocracy!

"What a peculiar prop."

The leader of the alliance paid no attention to Captain Nigun's shouting and played with the crystal-clear Sealing Crystal in his hand, seemingly full of interest.

This moment.

Realizing what was happening, everyone involuntarily swallowed hard.

Even Tang Zheng's expression turned slightly unpleasant.

He never expected that Captain Nigun would be so useless, allowing someone to so easily seize the Sealing Crystal.

"Launch the attack, Principality!"

The alliance leader raised the Sealing Crystal in his hand and said calmly.

Everyone had just witnessed the immense power of the Principality, and now that this powerful force had become the enemy's, despair was evident in the eyes of many.

The Principality gently flapped its wings, remaining the Unassailable.

"Can it only be controlled by the person who casts the spell?"

Seeing that the Principality was completely disobeying his commands, the Alliance Leader shook his head thoughtfully.

"Whatever, it doesn't matter whether I can control it or not, it'll all disappear when the time comes anyway."

Put away the Sealing Crystal.

The leader gazed at the pairs of terrified eyes, raised his arms, and uttered a chilling declaration. "This place shall become your graves."

"Teleportation!"

Swish.

The alliance leader Teleportation himself high in the sky. "Pale Flame!"

Rumble.

A black cloud, entirely composed of Negative Energy, was visibly gathering above everyone's heads, due to the presence of a large amount of Negative Energy and Negative Energy in this area.

The range of the "Pale Flame" has become larger.

Splash--Splash--

Drop by drop, like rain, cold white flame-like raindrops fell from the sky.

Before a Demi-Human could dodge, a drop of fire rain struck him on the head, and his whole body burst into flames, screaming as he turned to ashes!

Between breaths,

The entire battlefield was filled with screams and wails, turning into a living hell.

"Observer Dominion!"

Tang Zheng quickly summoned a Fourth-Tier Angel to shield him from the damage, then looked around at the scene with a solemn expression.

Things have gotten complicated!

As originally planned, the Seventh-Tier Principality was capable of fighting against the Alliance Leader.

Although the Alliance Leader can use Seventh-Tier magic, Tang Zheng had already tested him with it during their previous battles.

Through observation,

The leader's mastery of Seventh-Tier Magic is extremely limited. Even when he casts the Seventh-Tier magic "Undeath Army," it is only by relying on Magic Reinforcement such as "Magic Boost."

It's not surprising that they lack advanced magical techniques.

This New World isn't a game; there's no easy way to acquire magic. To obtain magic, you either have to learn it from others or develop it yourself.

so.

The Seventh-Tier, Principality is indeed sufficient to fight against the Alliance Leader.

Tang Zheng hadn't expected that the Sealing Crystal would be snatched away by the Alliance Leader before the battle even began!

"Idiot!"

Tang Zheng cursed inwardly.

As expected, the second option must be adopted, which means the Shadow Clone must reappear to fight against the alliance leader.
