The light of the Martial Arts "Invulnerable Fortress" emanated from the worn-out Lancer, colliding with the Platinum Spear.

Without a sound!

The powerful strike from the Platinum Spear was neutralized.

The God-kin Captain smirked, withdrew his arm, and stomped his left foot hard on the ground, preparing to charge towards the location of the Platinum Armor.

A brief encounter.

The God-kin Captain analyzed the abilities of the Platinum Armor. Although the opponent was dressed as Warrior, he was probably a weapon-wielding professional.

This can be judged from the opponent's two long-range attacks, so they likely have a certain advantage in close combat.

Thirteen Heroes?

"Heh," the God-kin Captain sneered inwardly.

He'd seen plenty of self-important old fogies, and they all deserved to be swept into the trash heap.

However!

Just as the God-kin Captain was about to charge, the Platinum Spear that had been blocked and was right in front of him struck twice.

A flash of silvery light.

Bang!

In an instant, the Platinum Spear pierced the armor on the left shoulder of the God-kin Captain. It was only because he reacted quickly that the blow landed on his heart.

Sparks flew, accompanied by a dull thud of metal colliding!

"Ah!"

The God-kin Captain cried out in pain as he was knocked back, a trickle of blood spilling from the corner of his mouth.

How is this possible?!

Such astonishment was not only felt by the God-kin Captain, but also on the faces of the [Black Scripture] members.

"Why...?" God-kin Captain stared in disbelief at the spot where he had been injured; the armor on his shoulder had clearly withstood the attack.

This is armor left behind by the Six Great Gods!

There was no damage, but he himself was injured.

"It's the power of that Lancer!"

God-kin Captain could clearly feel that his left arm was injured; his red pupils contracted, and his initial shock turned into seriousness.

"Misjudgment!"

The Platinum Spear, though blocked by his armor, could still inflict damage on him, suggesting it was a weapon capable of causing internal harm.

Whoosh!

The Platinum Spear flew again, like a silver streak.

God-kin Captain hurriedly swung his worn-out Lancer to defend himself, immediately feeling the heavy force, which made his heart sink again.

His opponent's strength is by no means weaker than his!

What's going on? -- Are any of the Thirteen Heroes really that strong?

"World Isolating Barrier!"

The eye area of Platinum Armor helmet emitted a blue light, activating Wild Magic.

--boom!

A shockwave that slightly distorted the atmosphere rapidly expanded from the Platinum Armor, forming a semi-transparent spherical shield that enveloped everyone present.

Its range appears to cover an area of several kilometers.

Platinum Dragon Lord, manipulating the Platinum Armor, his amber vertical pupils devoid of emotion, knew that this conflict with the Slane Theocracy was not a rational move.

However, the information conveyed by the Deep Darkness Dragon Lord is worth taking seriously.

It needs to investigate the truth behind the disappearance of the Ancient Fire Dragon from the group in the Theocracy, and also find out whether the Theocracy knew about the humans with the Innate Talent "foresight".

So!

The Platinum Dragon Lord planned to annihilate this secret force of the Theocracy; as long as they were all dead, no one would know what had happened.

No... The Godkin who inherited the tainted bloodline needs to be captured alive. The other party should know a lot of information that is useful to it.

--Aberleon Abelion Hills.

The "Death Omen Sparrow" couldn't get too close, but its excellent vision still provided Tang Zheng with a clear view of the scene.

The only regrettable thing.

Tang Zheng couldn't hear the conversation between the Platinum Armor and the God-kin Captain.

But this problem!

But this didn't stop Tang Zheng. Within the [Black Scripture], there were two of his spies, one of whom was one of the "Four Elements" outside the Great Forest of Tob.

One is Clementine is currently at the center of the battlefield.

Tang Zheng had his Shadow Clone activate "information" to contact Clementine, allowing her to silently relay the content of their conversation in the Platinum Armor to him.

"Ancient Fire Dragon?"

"They actually managed to investigate this matter... They suspect the Theocracy. Yes, compared to the traces I left behind, the traces left by the Theocracy are much more obvious."

Tang Zheng's face showed a strange expression of surprise. He did not expect that the Platinum Dragon Lord would suddenly investigate the Ancient Fire Dragon that he had killed.

To his surprise, the Platinum Dragon Lord actually suspected the Theocracy!

Why was an investigation suddenly launched?

Tang Zheng fell into deep thought, his eyes flashing with a solemn light. "It's the Deep Darkness Dragon Lord!"

"These True Dragon Lord actually have a means of remote communication!"

Tang Zheng felt as if he had discovered a new continent; this was extremely important information that he had been completely unaware of before.

"The World Isolating Barrier... is broken!"

Tang Zheng suddenly snapped out of his thoughts and saw the Platinum Dragon Lord activate the Wild Magic Barrier. He immediately sensed the pure malice towards the Theocracy.

The Platinum Dragon Lord plans to annihilate the entire Theocracy!

The World Item [Downfall of Castle and Country] must not fall into the hands of the Platinum Dragon Lord!

The people from the Theocracy are also an important fighting force.

Especially the God-kin Captain; if he were captured alive by the Platinum Dragon Lord, the Slane Theocracy would be like a woman stripped of her veil of shame.

Lay naked before the Platinum Dragon Lord, with no secrets whatsoever!

"Should we make a move...?"

The thought flashed through Tang Zheng's mind; after all, it was just a Platinum Armor, not the Platinum Dragon Lord.

Information – Four Elements!

Great Forest of Tob - Outer Area

The "Four Elements" stared in astonishment toward the depths of the forest, where they could sense the immense, invisible barrier pulsating.

"What happened?"

"Such a wide coverage area and power... shouldn't this be the work of the Sunlight Scripture members? The Evil Tree?"

The middle- Four Elements man, whose face was grim, tensed up as he felt a strange sense of fear creeping into his heart.

Fine!

He was located on the outskirts of the forest, not within the area covered by the barrier.

suddenly.

"My lord!" The Four Elements trembled, their expressions quickly turning respectful. "Ah, yes, yes, I understand, my lord."

The voice that had been echoing in my mind disappeared.

The Four Elements wore expressions of utter solemnity. They took a deep breath and chanted softly, "Teleportation."

Swish!

The air rippled, and the figure vanished.

Deep in the forest.

Seeing that the God-kin Captain was actually suppressed by this former Thirteen Heroes.

Everyone's expression changed completely.

Fear, shock, disbelief, and other emotions filled the air, and many people wondered if they were dreaming.

"The captain is a ' Godkin '!"

A soft exclamation rang out, echoing the innermost thoughts of everyone in the [Black Scripture].

Kerry's hands clenched tightly, his cloudy eyes revealing a mixture of shock and anger.

"Infinite Magic, try using Teleportation!"

Old man Kerry suddenly turned his head and let out a hoarse growl.

"Ah... yes!"

The lazy expression on "Infinite Magic" vanished, his eyes snapping back from the battle ahead, and he began to chant:

"Teleportation... No, it failed!"

"Infinite Magic" suddenly straightened her back, a look of terror appeared on her face, and her delicate voice trembled.

She had never encountered such a situation before!

Unknown magic?

However, the enemy should clearly be a Warrior -type opponent.

The situation was beyond comprehension, causing "Infinite Magic" to tremble and nearly fall off the movable magic ball beneath him.

"... really!"

The old man Kerry, had a somber expression, and his clenched hands trembled slightly, seemingly expecting this outcome.

"The former Thirteen Heroes, ' Silver '... suddenly appeared and asked if a Dragon Lords was a friend... with this Platinum Armor- style decoration."

"Council State?"

"Could it be that the other party has been staying in the Council State for the past 200 years, or that the other party was originally a member of the Council State?"

"That's right, the Council State was established after the chaos between the Thirteen Heroes and the Demon Gods ended. Could the other party be a Demi-Human councilor within the Council State, besides the Dragon Lords?"

Old Man Kerry's thoughts were somewhat chaotic, and he quickly suppressed the jumbled ideas in his mind; now was not the time to think about these things.

Rough hands touched the golden cheongsam at her chest.

If we can control the other party!

Not only could they obtain a large amount of intelligence on the Council State, but they might also be able to plant a highly trusted, Advanced Tier spy within the Council State.

But... even True Divine Artifact needs to control the Catastrophe Dragon Lord!

An indescribable choice flashed through Kerry's mind. After a brief moment of thought, he immediately issued the order, "Assist!"

In an instant!

"Divine Chain," bound by magical chains and clad in yellow magical armor, and "Giant Shield Myriad Barriers.

The two men arrived at both sides of Elder Kerry, and the three of them stepped back together to make room for the rest of the group.

Their primary responsibility is to protect Lady Kaire!

"I'll intervene!" "Thousand Miles Astrologer" was pale. She had just launched several Magic Detection, but had not found anything.

The Platinum Armor has anti-detection features!

"Phantom!" A pink light emanated from "Thousand Miles Astrologer".

The next instant.

Two identical phantom figures appeared simultaneously on either side of the God-kin Captain.

This ability cannot be used in combat when used by the user, but it can be used to assist teammates, especially when combined with her anti-detection items and abilities.

Even if they are enemies!

Unless they fight, it's impossible to tell the difference between the real and the fake.

At the same time!

A blonde woman in a white Priest dress, with her hands clasped together in front of her chest, and radiating Holy Light, stepped forward.

This is an exceptionally beautiful woman, exuding a holy aura like a living saint. She is the fourth-ranked "Divine Chant"!

"The supreme creator~"

"Eternal light, eternal night."

Your compassion is like the morning star...

With eyes closed, she raised her swan-like neck, clasped her hands together in front of her chest, and murmured the "Divine Chant."

The melodious sound echoed in the air, and even though the target was not their companions, a chill ran down the spines of the members of the Sunlight Scripture.

"Divine Chant" is not the strongest among the members, but he is the most terrifying of them all.

The opponent's Innate Talent, combined with their overall power, can create a wide-ranging impact, silently and easily taking the lives of everyone in a city.

The instant the two women activated their abilities!

Among the members was a figure dressed as Ninja, whose eyes gleamed with a cold light.

"Heaven above -- Earth below!"

With her legs together and clasped in a tight red outfit, the figure vanished from the spot in an instant.

"Ninjutsu: Concealment!"

His title is "Heaven and Earth," and his Innate Talent is also named after him. No one dares to hold back against an opponent like the Platinum Armor.

"Ugh... How terrifying!"

"Time Turbulence" feigned fear on its face, but its pupils burned with intense excitement. With a push off the ground, it was the first to rush out.

A green afterimage swept across the ground and appeared behind the God-kin Captain.

I sensed someone behind me!

The God-kin Captain didn't turn around; instead, he slightly lowered his legs.

"Team leader!"

"Time Turbulence" gripped a rapier in his left hand, while his right hand swiftly pressed against the God-kin Captain's back, his eyes gleaming with an eerie light.

"Innate Talent: Temporal Fault!"

Now!

The Platinum Armor, wielding Platinum Spear, abruptly halted his attack when he saw the dodging God-kin Captain suddenly multiply into three.

It's not because there are three of them!

Dragon Race possess a level of perception far beyond what ordinary people can imagine; no matter how closely these illusions are disguised, the naked eye cannot distinguish between them.

But the stench of filth remained as conspicuous as a lamp in the darkness.

Killing intent!

Two pure killing intents surged in simultaneously from above and below.

Innate Talent: Heaven and Earth!

Its ability is to create a killing intent that "descends from the sky" and "Underground Assault" on the enemy when it attacks.

These two murderous intents are completely real, but the attacker's figure will only appear the moment the attack hits!

In other words, the opponent needs to choose the real attack from two seemingly real attacks to defend against.

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

The Platinum Armor remained standing in place, seemingly ignoring the attack, while the katana and greatsword swirling around its chest slashed upwards and downwards simultaneously.

When!

A crisp clanging sound rang out above the Platinum Armor.

"Heaven and Earth" appeared above, and the dagger in his hand clashed with the katana.

At the same time!

The God-kin Captain and "Time Turbulence" appeared out of thin air in front of the Platinum Armor, as if by teleportation.

Teleportation?

Fast movement?

Obviously not!

The moment the God-kin Captain appeared, his worn-out Lancer was enveloped in a layer of earthy brown power, and the spear shot out like a dragon, striking the chest of the Platinum Armor.

Boom!!

There was no charging or gap when the skill was activated; it was as if the attack had already landed.

Even the weapons swirling around the Platinum Armor couldn't stop them in time!

Innate Talent: Time Fault – Creates brief time gaps, "skipping" a certain stage to directly hit the target.

Boom!

With a deafening roar, the Platinum Armor was sent flying, along with its weapons, a distance of about a hundred meters before crashing to the ground with a loud thud.

A large amount of dust began to rise!

"... Got it!" God-kin Captain smiled brightly.
