Queen Gith

The appearance of the Red Dragon has undoubtedly caused headaches for many.

Even the ruler of the Northern Witches Council, Eye of the North, frowned as she glanced at the Dragon circling in the sky. The Red Dragon's Dragon Breath was the most powerful of the Chromatic Dragon, its destructive power equivalent to twice that of the Cone of Cold of Adult White Dragon. Therefore, the Soul Projection of all the Witch present could only withstand a maximum of two rounds of Dragon Breath attacks. Once the Red Dragon launched its attack, they had to bring it down within one round, otherwise the casualties among the Northern Witch would be severe.

--"Mass Hold Person!"

--"Cloudkill!"

--"The Grease!"

--"Web!"

--"Finger of Death!"

--"Disintegrate!"

--"Abi-Dalzim's Horrid Wilting!"

As the Githyanki Warrior rapidly approached, the Northern Witch unleashed their First Wave of Spell attacks.

As high-ranking Northern Witch, all of whom were at least level 15 in their profession, their Spell were utterly overwhelming and brutal. Mass Hold Person immobilized the five third-tier Warrior at the forefront, followed by a Cloudkill, then Grease and Web. Finger of Death Disintegrate targeted the enemies at the front, accompanied by beams of Spell light. When ' Abi-Dalzim's Horrid Wilting ' covered the land before them...

The First Wave of attack Warrior the Githyanki was completely wiped out!

They didn't even get within fifty meters of the Northern Witch before falling to a barrage of Spell attacks.

High-level Spellcaster.

From level 10 onwards, Spellcaster's combat ability begins to increase dramatically, becoming increasingly astonishing as they progress!

The North are equivalent to a large kingdom, but there are only a dozen or so high-ranking, near- Legendary Witch in the entire North. It wouldn't be difficult for them to fight off an army together, so the Githyanki Warrior wouldn't be able to wear them down with just this few spells.

Soren waited quietly.

The battle so far has only been an appetizer. The Githyanki's Psion, Psychic Warrior, and Wilder have yet to appear. The ordinary Warrior charging towards them are merely a test of the Northern Witch's combat strength. There are countless low-level psychic Warrior among the Githyanki; an adult Githyanki can reach the third tier in combat ability.

"Enemy forces are approaching!"

Soren's ears suddenly twitched, and he whispered to Goria beside him, "It's Psionic Stalker!"

A Spell Aura appeared.

Suddenly, Scimitar, Icetail, appeared in Soren's palm. He then pounced like Cheetah, his figure moving with ghostly speed. Accompanied by a flash of cold light, followed by a continuous Parry and blockes, Soren's figure kicked the corpse in the chest with a thud, sending it flying nearly six meters backward. Then, a spurt of blood gushed from the severed neck, and the headless corpse flew backward and landed on the ground with a thud.

"You annoying guy!"

Soren paused for a moment after landing, then shook his head and muttered, "Damn Psionics!"

A row of documents appeared:

"The Shadow Assassination was successfully launched!..."

"Successfully launched the Sword Momentum: Decapitation!..."

"You dealt 116 points of decapitation damage to the target!... Target's Fortitude Save failed!... Target dies!..."

"Extracting Soul Energy!..."

"You have gained 5600 Slaughter Experience points!..."

The Slaughter Experience from the Githyanki are still incredibly high!

However, their Psionics Spell-like Ability are still as disgusting as ever! Even Soren's willpower is extremely uncomfortable when affected by their Psionics Spell.

Soren's combat power is astonishing when all attributes are enhanced!

If he weren't in his Soul Projection state, he could probably surpass his former peak combat power. However, with so many Northern Witch around, and the legendary Eye of the North, Soren still had many concerns. For example, he dared not Change Shape [Slayer Form] at this moment because he worried that some of the Northern Witch might be very interested in the Child of Slaughter. If a Spellcaster close to Legendary were to take a liking to him, it would definitely not be a happy thing.

"There are other Psionic Stalker nearby!"

Soren has a strong ability to sense Rogue; as long as Rogue are not Legendary or above, he possesses a strong counter-surveillance capability.

--"Detect Invisibility!"

Upon hearing Soren's words, Goria and the other Witch around her immediately sprang into action. With each burst of Spell Aura, five or six hazy enemies appeared within a hundred meters. The Spellcaster possessed powerful Spell abilities, but their resilience, reflexes, and willpower were unlikely to surpass those of Melee Class. Without Soren's presence, they would probably have had to wait until the enemies were close enough, or until their attacks triggered a protective energy field, before they could locate these Rogue.

"Careful!"

This time, it was Eye of the North who spoke. She frowned, glanced ahead, and then cast a Spell.

--"Dimensional Anchor!"

A force sealed off the surrounding space, and then a thin Githyanki appeared out of thin air. He paused for a moment as if he had bumped into something, and then vanished in an instant, reappearing three hundred meters away. This was Githyanki Psion. This race didn't have many Wizard, but they had many very difficult advanced Psionics Advanced Class Professional. Psionics included many Spell-like Ability, making them relatively uncommon and difficult enemies to deal with. Soren had always hated fighting Psionics enemies.

Clap clap clap!

A strange clapping sound suddenly rang out.

As the sound of clapping rang out, all the nearby Githyanki retreated, and even the Red Dragon that had been circling in the sky, waiting for its chance, retreated a considerable distance. Then, a crack appeared in the Astral Stronghold ahead, splitting open like a gate, and squads of fully armed Githyanki Warrior wielding Silver Sword appeared. In the center of them stood a female creature with a pointed face and dressed in luxurious clothes.

She is the Queen of these Githyanki!

In the eyes of these Astral Plane natives, she was a supreme being, for worshipping the Queen meant forbidding the worship of Deity, for to worship Deity was to betray the Queen. Every Githyanki tribe had such a Queen, whose status was even higher than that of the Drow's matriarch. They wielded near-absolute rule over their tribes, much like Blade Queen. The Queen's bloodline was sacred to the Githyanki; such rulers numbered less than one hand in the entire Astral Plane, and half of them were in Lich form.

The one before me does not appear to be Lich.

This proves that she is still very young and a newly crowned Queen!

"The Eye of the North"

The Queen of the Githyanki stood on the ground. The Red Dragon circling in the sky let out a low roar, then slowly descended before her, humbly bowing its head. The Queen, with her pointed, almost V-shaped face, reached out her long, slender fingers and stroked the Red Dragon's head, then raised her head and declared in a resolute voice, "I said I would return!"

Have you thought it through?

"Even now you still refuse to return that thing to us? You should know that we will never let this go until we get it back!..."

As her words fell...

The Psychic Warrior standing on either side of her drew their silver blades in unison, as if they were a single entity. Their long-term militarized lifestyle had instilled in the Githyanki a profound sense of Discipline. These enemies were all Psychic Warrior, advanced classes, almost all high-level professionals. Besides possessing melee combat abilities comparable to purebred Warrior, they also wielded considerable Spell Psionics, making them formidable opponents.

Standing behind them was a group of Spellcaster dressed in Wizard robes. Although the Githyanki did not have many Wizard, Psion could make up for the lack, and they also had many special advanced professions.

For example, special professions such as Telepath, Wilder, Shaper, Seer, and Kineticist.

Roar!

The Red Dragon roared and soared into the air, the Psion's figure floated in the air, the Psychic Warrior with a silver blade stepped closer, and hundreds or even thousands of Githyanki Warrior surrounded them.

Just as their Queen said, they will not rest until they get back what they want!

Even though what lies before them is a group of extremely dangerous high-ranking Witch.

What is it?

Upon hearing Queen Gith's words, both Soren and the other Northern Witch turned their puzzled gazes toward the Eye of the North. It seemed that Soren wasn't the only one curious; the other Northern Witch were equally unaware of what the Eye of the North held, which was why this group of Githyanki was willing to leap from the Astral Plane to directly attack the North and reclaim it.

What could possibly make them willing to pay such a high price?

They actually dared to directly challenge one of the few Witch factions in the Material Plane, a council with more than half a hand's worth of Legendary Witch.

This is no easier than God of War!

The Eye of the North gave no reply; she simply frowned and stared at Queen Gith before her, seemingly pondering some serious matter.

However, Soren seemed to remember something.

He suddenly jolted, glanced at the Eye of the North ahead, and then murmured in Goria's ear, "Githyanki Silver Sword!..."

"If it really is that, things are in trouble!"

Goria seemed taken aback for a moment upon hearing this, then replied softly, "Wasn't that Artifact already destroyed?"

Soren shook his head upon hearing this.

Destroying a +10 Artifact completely is no easy task!
