The Strange Aura Grows Stronger: Merging with the Principality

The piercing screams echoed across the battlefield!

The massive death of the largest number of Demi-Human, the power of Sixth-Tier Magic, had surpassed the ability of most people present to resist.

"Magic Armor!"

"Magic Armor!"

"Magic Armor!"

The Verdant Leaf Witch unleashed three spells in quick succession, casting a layer of magical protection on herself, Enri, and the Barghest.

The rain of Negative Energy fire falling from the sky struck the Magic Armor, constantly creating ripples of magic that continuously eroded the magic's protective power.

"Miss Cuiye, please save them!"

Enri looked anxiously at the Verdant Leaf Witch and pointed to the surrounding Paladin.

"The Magic Shield's power can't last long at all; protecting the three of us is already my limit."

The Verdant Leaf Witch stared at the Magic Armor on her body, which had already developed cracks in just a few moments. Her bright yellow pupils contracted, and she responded coldly.

"Ah!"

"Ah!"

The screams of the Paladin around them rang out one after another.

Upon hearing this, Enri immediately ran to the Barghest and searched for the "Regeneration Potion" on it.

"It's useless."

"At this level of magic, the Regeneration Potion wouldn't have enough time to take effect, and we don't have many potions to begin with; we can't save many people."

The Verdant Leaf Witch guessed what Enri was planning to do and spoke up again to remind her.

Enri's hands froze as she watched the Paladin had been chatting and laughing with her not long ago, and who had even taught her skills, die one by one without any resistance. A sense of powerlessness welled up in her heart again.

"That woman named Kelart possesses Resurrection Magic and can bring them back to life," the Verdant Leaf Witch continued.

"The captain said they can no longer be resurrected."

Enri muttered to herself, then suddenly raised her head as if grasping at a straw:

"Captain, you must have a way!"

The captain exudes confidence and composure in everything he does.

Enri quickly turned around and soon found Tang Zheng, who was somewhat conspicuous with the Observer Dominion above his head.

Snap!

Enri grabbed the fur on the Barghest Barghest with both hands, pulled hard, and jumped onto its back.

"Blackie, let's go to Captain's side," Enri said.

"What are you up to!"

The Verdant Leaf Witch's expression turned somewhat unpleasant as she watched Enri's actions.

The current situation is dangerous.

What can an ordinary human girl like you do? Even your master would probably find this a bit tricky right now.

However, the master also possesses the power of Teleportation magic, so there shouldn't be any problem in calmly leading them away from here.

The Verdant Leaf Witch wanted to reach out and stop her, and also knock Enri unconscious to avoid any trouble, but suddenly she remembered Tang Zheng's instructions.

The Verdant Leaf Witch's Divine Flash flickered, but she ultimately did not stop it.

"Awoo."

The Barghest roared and ran off with Enri in its arms.

The closer Enri got to the center of the battlefield, the clearer she could see the humans and Demi-Human killed by the falling flames.

Subconsciously.

Enri looked up at the figure of the Alliance Leader floating above her.

"Human or Demi-Human."

"Everyone just wants to survive." Enri bit her lip, her face pale.

Whoosh!

The Barghest was incredibly fast, speeding through the rain of fire, leaping over the corpses on the ground, and rushing to Tang Zheng's location.

"Captain!"

I saw Enri rushing over from the very back, where it was safe.

Tang Zheng was stunned.

He was stunned not because of Enri's appearance, but because the strange feeling emanating from Enri seemed to have become clearer.

"Captain, can you please save them?"

With a sob in her voice, Enri staggered off the Barghest: "Captain, you must have a way, right?"

Tang Zheng reached out and helped Enri, who almost fell to the ground, looking at the girl in front of him with red eyes and a face full of expectation.

The peculiar aura became a little clearer!

This strange feeling was somewhat similar to the peculiar feeling Tang Zheng had when Lainas's career was unstable, and also somewhat like the unstable fluctuations in Life Intensity during the process of leveling up and down.

No!

Both sensations were very weak, as if they could disappear at any moment.

Tang Zheng's eyes narrowed.

People from New World acquire their professions in ways that are not fixed and are beyond their control, so asking Enri would be pointless.

Looking at Enri's expectant eyes.

Tang Zheng vaguely sensed that this "expectation" was connected with the strange feeling emanating from Enri.

Seriously.

Plans never keep up with changes.

Tang Zheng glanced at Kelart's direction out of the corner of his eye. The other party was not making any moves at the moment, but was frantically directing the Cleric Corps to summon Angel to block the magical attacks from the air.

The original plan was to have the Shadow Clone off against the alliance leader...

Now, we have to use another method.

"Hmm, there's still a way."

Tang Zheng raised his finger to wipe away the tears from Enri's eyes, and spoke gently, giving Enri a positive reply.

In an instant.

The strange feeling that Enri had was somewhat stabilized, but it was still very elusive overall.

"It is indeed related to Enri's own 'expectations'."

This thought flashed through Tang Zheng's mind.

Most professions are acquired through some means. Even if they are acquired by chance, they are related to the long-term training, occupation, and habits of people from New World.

The sudden appearance of someone like Enri is completely baffling.

"Really!" Enri's eyes, brimming with tears, revealed surprise.

Tang Zheng nodded again, his expression turning serious. "Leave the rest to me. You stay here obediently."

After saying that.

Tang Zheng had the Observer Dominion fly over the heads of the Barghest and Enri, and then summoned another one himself.

Lift your head!

Looking up at the majestic, holy, and the Unassailable Principality suspended high in the sky.

"We have no choice but to give it a try."

Snap!

With one arm supporting Tang Zheng, Quan Tian rapidly flapped his wings and flew towards the direction of the Principality.

Cold, white fire rained down continuously from the sky!

Tang Zheng and the Observer Dominion were like a white rainbow, or a moth drawn to a flame.

The rain of Negative Energy fell on the Observer Dominion, and the rapid, dense collision sounds caused all the humans and Demi-Human on the ground to look up in astonishment!

"He's insane!"

Kelart looked up and spoke in disbelief.

Remedios, Go King, Clementine, and the others who had been knocked away and were lying in a corner all had the same thought in their minds.

With the alliance leader so powerful, what difference is there between Tang Zheng charging into the enemy alone and suicide?

"Captain!!"

Enri finally realized what was happening, her face filled with terror.

High in the sky.

Are all Cleric this brave these days?

"Since you want to die, then so be it!"

The alliance leader sneered and raised his arm, aiming it at Tang Zheng, who was rapidly rising below:

"Dragon Lightning!"

Click--

The bursting dragon-shaped lightning streaked across the sky in a curved arc before transforming into a thunderbolt that struck down.

Faced with this magical attack.

Boom!

The Observer Dominion the flight paused, grabbed Tang Zheng with one hand and threw him into the air. He was then struck by the dragon Lightning Strike and vanished into specks of light amidst a roar.

"So, his target isn't the Alliance Leader, but the Principality?"

Remedios gripped the Holy Sword with both hands, swinging it incessantly to deflect the magical attacks falling from the sky, while his eyes were fixed on the figure in the air.

What is this human going to do?

"Rainbow Scales" Rokesh the Demi-Human to release Magic Defense while raising its head, its scarlet pupils revealing surprise.

Obviously.

Everyone who noticed Tang Zheng's actions was utterly puzzled.

whoosh--

The sound of a gust of wind rushed past his ears. Tang Zheng used the force of the Observer Dominion ' throw to propel himself toward the Principality.

Fortunately, the other party's body was large enough that there was no need to worry about the Observer Dominion throwing it off course.

"We haven't fully figured out the effects of the medicine yet, so this is all we can do for now."

Tang Zheng flipped his hand, took out a bottle of "Assimilation Potion," and poured it all into his mouth.

This potion was originally planned as a trial product for trade with the Slane Theocracy, but now I have to test it myself.

Under the incredulous gazes of many!

Tang Zheng crashed head-on into the Principality. The expected collision did not occur. Tang Zheng was like a raindrop merging into the surface of a lake, his entire body entering the Principality's body.

An uproar!

The surviving members of the [Sunlight Scripture] unit opened their mouths, completely unable to comprehend what had just happened.

"Gone... disappeared." Kelart's eyes widened.

Wow~

Whoosh~

Splash--

Having lost the control of the Sealing Crystal, the Principality, who had remained silent until now, suddenly began flapping its wings, making a movement.

Now!

Tang Zheng, now integrated into the body of the Principality, was struggling to control this enormous Angel form.

The process seemed to go smoothly, but in reality, it was quite the opposite. The entire integration process was extremely difficult. This was the first time Tang Zheng had ever integrated into the body of Angel summoned by someone else.

"Previously, it was speculated that the success of integrating with the Angel was related to one 'Justice Value, and now that it's happened, that's been proven true."

Tang Zheng felt his whole body was in a state of incongruity and compression, struggling to control the Principality.

His Justice Value wasn't high; it was always kept at a moderate level.

Now.

Not only was the Principality difficult to control, but the sense of rejection was also extremely strong. Tang Zheng relied entirely on pure power to resist this sense of rejection.

"As long as you can control it, get moving!"

Tang Zheng unleashed his magic power, forcibly controlling the Principality.

outside world.

The Principality, who had been slowly flapping his wings, began to move.

"Extreme Holy Strike!"

The Principality raised his golden scepter and waved it towards the sky.

A dazzling, pure, Holy Light transformed into a pillar of light, blasting into the dark clouds in the sky, which were constructed of Negative Energy.

Boom--

A loud roar echoed through the air.

The magic of "Pale Flame" was shattered, the attack stopped and dissipated, and the scorching sunlight, previously obscured by the dark clouds of Negative Energy, once again shone upon the earth.

The chilling sense of dread dissipated!

Most of the humans and Demi-Human collapsed on the ground, as if they had survived a catastrophe; the Sixth-Tier magic was simply too terrifying and horrifying.

In that brief moment, both the human and Demi-Human sides lost half their manpower.

The black mist on the Alliance's body trembled as it watched the Principality regain its mobility and launch an attack on its own, causing a sudden throbbing in its temples.

"How did you do that!"

The leader's white pupils contracted, and he loudly questioned.

That Cleric was able to merge with Angel and indirectly control a Seventh-Tier Angel —what kind of special magic is that?

Impossible!

Even with the most special methods of manipulation, it was impossible for that Cleric to control Seventh-Tier Angel.

Innate Talent?

No, he clearly noticed that the Cleric drank a potion when he merged into the body of the Principality.

"What is that potion, Cleric?"

The alliance leader seemed to have discovered something incomprehensible, and his usually Calmness demeanor became somewhat agitated:

"Just tell me, and I'll spare your life!"

Tang Zheng certainly wouldn't respond. Even if he wanted to, the Principality didn't have a head and wouldn't make a sound.

Wow!

With a flap of its three pairs of wings, the radiant Principality charged toward the leader with a speed far exceeding its own size, wielding its golden scepter as if it were a club.

Boom--

The golden scepter struck the air with a loud bang, shattering the air in front of it with a single blow.

A golden scepter came into view.

A terrifying shockwave swept in, forcing the alliance leader to swallow back his words and use flight magic to dodge quickly.

The attack missed its mark.

"Punishment Ray"

The Principality puffed out his chest, and a dazzling red light shone from the central red area, shooting out bright red rays.

"Magic Shield!"

The alliance leader immediately activated Magic Defense.

The translucent magic shield collided and exploded with the Punishment Ray, and the leader was knocked back once again.

"Extreme Holy Strike"

A bluish-white beam of light instantly descended above the leader's head.

"Teleportation!" the alliance leader shouted, immediately using Teleportation magic to dodge.

"Magic Resistance Breakthrough· Dragon Lightning!"

Click!

The burst of Laser light twisted and drew a winding line in mid-air before striking the Principality heavily, leaving a charred area on the surface of his bright silver armor.

"Punishment Ray"

Negative Energy Blast!

"Magic Resistance Breakthrough: Acid Lance!"

"Angel's Protection"

"Slow!"

"Holy Attribute Defense!"

"Magic Resistance Breakthrough - Negative Energy Blast!"

"Angel's Protection"

"Extreme Holy Strike"

"Teleportation!"

"...!"

A fierce battle unfolded in the sky, and the terrifying magical aftershocks easily blasted deep craters into the ground.

This was a high-level battle that surpassed everyone's imagination.

The Principality doesn't care about getting hurt, but the Alliance Leader can't afford to be indifferent; once struck by magic, the consequences will be either death or serious injury.

This resulted in the Principality controlled by Tang Zheng forcing the Alliance Leader to retreat continuously, leaving him with no choice but to adopt defensive measures.

"Damn Cleric-- "

The alliance leader was slightly disheveled, constantly dodging the magical attacks of the Principality.

The opponent's offensive was too fierce, giving him no time to breathe.

What angered the leader most was that the Cleric who controlled the Principality was completely resisting the magic he released and launching what could be described as a suicidal attack.

The opponent is completely unafraid of getting hurt; of course, even if they do get hurt, they are still the Principality!

That's outrageous!

The thought suddenly popped into the leader's mind; it had been so long since he had been forced into such a predicament.

Even that red-robed mage was only somewhat troublesome because of the Bone Dragon.

"No, we must find out how the other party merged into the Angel's body."

The alliance leader's eyes burned even brighter as he activated his defensive magic again, dodging as he flew.

The fact that a weak magician could control a powerful summoned creature through such means speaks volumes—

With a "thud",

The leader's throat moved unusually, and greed gleamed in his cold, white eyes. He had to capture this Cleric alive and learn about this power from him!

Rumble!

Rumble!

The intense magical clashes caused a continuous, muffled thunderous roar to echo in the air.

"They're really troublesome."

Tang Zheng, controlling the Principality, felt somewhat uncomfortable watching the Alliance Leader hovering and dodging around him like a fly.

The leader has too many tricks up his sleeve. Some of his spells aren't very powerful, but they can still weaken Angel. On the other hand, summoned monsters like the Principality have limited means of attack.

However, this kind of high-intensity magical battle...

The one who feels the most pain is the alliance leader.

"This urgent attack is a bit abnormal."

The alliance leader's expression turned grim, but a thoughtful look appeared in his eyes: the Angel that summon monsters have a time limit.

"Heh, no wonder you resorted to such a suicidal attack; you wanted to finish me off before the Angel summoning ended."

"We need to conserve more mana to buy time."

The alliance leader quickly determined a strategy.
