Talleyrand turned to look at the woman, slightly moved.
Then he looked up at the Black Knight again and said gravely:
"Bayers, you needn't try to distract me with words anymore. No matter what, you won't escape being subdued today!"
The Black Knight fell silent for a few seconds, then chuckled hoarsely.
"Heh... yes, what right do I have to criticize you? After all, I'm a ridiculous fellow myself."
Whoosh!
He pointed the Black Longsword in his hand and said with lethal menace:
"I have no personal grudge against any of you, but we stand on different sides... if you want to subdue me, then try."
Battle was about to erupt!
The waxwork woman, Hirna, smiled faintly. The skin all over her body instantly turned a stony grayish white, a pair of enormous stone wings grew from her back, and two stone horns sprouted from her head.
This was the ability of an [Earth Faction Sequence 6-Gargoyle]!
It granted extremely high physical and energy resistance!
Hirna's obsidian-like eyes shot out a beam of black light, dragging everything it touched into the Spirit World.
There was an unwritten rule in mystical circles: battles between Beyonders should take place in the Spirit World whenever possible.
That way, they would not have too great an impact on the Mortal World.
Anyone who broke this rule would face joint action from the Seven Great True Gods Churches and the Containment Bureau. Even the Saints of various factions dared not cause large-scale destruction and slaughter in the Mortal World. Such was the deterrent power of the authorities.
As a distorted, blurry blue covered everyone's vision, they all entered the Spirit World.
The Black Knight stood atop the stone pillar, unmoved.
He did not care whether the battlefield was the Mortal World or the Spirit World.
