Hahahaha!
Saileni's clear, melodious laughter broke the momentary silence. She triumphantly raised her chin, facing the direction of the stars, and proclaimed in a triumphant tone:
"The fluidity of overcoming obstacles is undisputed! In this magnificent race, victory belongs to the [ Eternity ] radiance! Praise be to our Lord's swift path!"
Her laughter and declaration were so out of place, so lighthearted and cheerful, that they formed an absurd and stark contrast with the grim, tense, and blood-soaked atmosphere of the scene.
Whether it was Hoolay, Mo Du who was struggling to get Modu, or the Borisin wolf soldiers who were on high alert but were caught off guard... and Jiaoqiu brows were furrowed even more tightly, they were all stunned.
The air seemed to freeze for a moment.
Saileni completely ignored the dozens of fierce, astonished, and murderous gazes around her, glanced at the damaged Xueyi- clad puppet, and seemed to be deep in thought.
She seemed to be at a tea party on a spring afternoon, gracefully and steadily taking out a cup of milk tea from the wide sleeves of her pastor's robe.
When in doubt, first have a cup of milk tea carefully developed by Lord Yite.
Jiaoqiu's lips twitched slightly. The sleeve didn't look like it could hold such a big cup at all; it was practically magic.
Saileni took a big, satisfying gulp, letting out a contented sigh, then turned her head as if she had just noticed the fiercely Borisin Wolf Warriors before her.
She blinked her large, crystal-clear eyes, "So many people..."
With an innocent and sweet smile on her face, Saileni shook the milk tea cup in her hand at Hoolay and the bewildered Jiaoqiu, her tone sincere yet with a hint of matter-of-fact invitation.
Bathed in the Eternity light, when else should she not uphold the Church's traditional virtues of Eternity?
"Hmm... my throat's a bit dry after running around for so long." Everyone looks so busy, how about a cup of Immortal's Joy Tea!
"Three parts sugar, ice, double tapioca pearls, guaranteed to wash away all your worries—like, for example, little worries like 'how to escape'?"
Xing covered her face. Only this pastor could still promote milk tea at a time like this; even Galactic Baseballer was ashamed of himself.
Having recovered from the confusion of the 'speed bump', Xing realized the danger they had stumbled into, but Saileni's reaction... made her feel that there were too many things to complain about, and she didn't know where to begin.
The mountain-sized Borisin, and Jiaoqiu seems to be in danger. The speed bump she just knocked away also looks familiar...
After a brief moment of thought, Xing clicked his tongue in exasperation and took out his mimicry baseball bat again; a major battle was about to erupt!
Meanwhile, in the Central Starskiff Haven, directly opposite the [ Sleepless Earl ] teahouse.
"Wow... there's been a riot in the Prison of Deep Seclusion!"
Silver Wolf switched to the electronic screen, munching on Lil' Twist Bubble Gum, and noticed that his opponent was no ordinary opponent; despite not possessing the power of " Eternity," it was comparable to " Eternity."
She zoomed in on the electronic display until she could clearly see Saileni's face, and the Lil' Twist Bubble Gum popped open.
"There's a new character from the [ Church of Eternity ]? The Prayer Priest is a clerical worker, right...? Isn't the difference in combat power a bit too big?" Silver Wolf looked at Ye Yan, who was leisurely drinking milk tea, with a puzzled expression.
Would a civilian employee really win a battle? In her understanding, the [ Eternity ] Walker had only lived a long time; she really had no idea about their strength.
This can't be blamed on Silver Wolf. Look at the incredible people she's encountered, like Ye Yan, whose combat power is unknown and who's always carrying milk tea.
He outwardly claims to be the " Eternity " Walker, but in reality, he is the " Eternity " Emanator who doesn't want to attract too much trouble—a classic case of playing dumb to fool others.
Then there's Blake, the [ Eternity ] Emanator loves soap and is the head of the [ Church of Eternity ]. His strength is incredibly cunning; even a casually tossed bar of soap can destroy stars. It's hard to say whether he has even more powerful weapons.
Hmm... this matchmaking system is wrong, isn't it? Why is she only encountering [ Eternity ] Emanator? Aren't there any normal Pathstrider here?!
"Who do you think will win, her or Hoolay?" Ye Yan put down his milk tea and asked.
"Considering the unique nature of the [ Eternity ] Path... it should be the former, right?"
Ye Yan smiled. "That's not actually the case."
Silver Wolf:?
"You said it yourself, Saileni is an office worker. What kind of combat power can you expect from a prayer priest? Beating Hoolay half to death with one punch is something that only happens in novels. Don't you think that would ruin the power dynamics?"
That makes sense.
Silver Wolf nodded. If the combat power of the [ Eternity ] Walkers were all explosive, they could burn down a star system with just a slight move, just like [ Lord Ravager ] Zephyro. What would be the point of the other Pathstrider being alive? They could all just be used as cushions for [ Eternity ].
"But..." Ye Yan changed the subject, " Hoolay might not necessarily win either."
"Could it be that the Prayer Priest also has a hidden backup energy source?! That he can unleash his power and switch to a battle form at a crucial moment?!"
Silver Wolf's tone held a hint of excitement; after finishing the game, he could even watch a Mortal Kombat match.
"It's hard to say."
Ye Yan's gaze fell on Saileni on the virtual screen. When Fulisina first picked up this girl, she had bombarded her with a bunch of random knowledge, which deviated slightly from the image of a priest she had envisioned.
The original plan was for Saileni to be a professional prayer priest, so that even if a fight broke out, she would use a more conventional weapon.
For example, the Book of Eternal Virtues, which has [ Emanator ] level defense, can be used to fight enemies. When encountering [ Destruction ] factions, you can first give them a 'bang' on the head to make them truly feel the strength of [ Eternity ].
But... Ye Yan rubbed his chin as he thought, how did he end up as a ranged healer/DPS?
Well, maybe Saileni doesn't like close combat and fighting enemies hand-to-hand, Ye Yan can understand.
At the bottom of the Prison of Deep Seclusion, the previous absurd stagnation was broken by a wild beast's guttural sound, suppressed to the extreme.
Hoolay could sense the level of danger posed by the two people in front of him; they reminded him very much of that woman.
Larger animals have a disadvantage in combat. Hoolay took the pill that Modu handed him and swallowed it without even looking at it.
A strange energy flowed through his body, and his tall werewolf form began to twist and shrink in the dim light, gradually covering the features belonging to the Xianzhou Foxian.
After completing the transformation, Hoolay now appeared as an exceptionally tall and burly Foxian with eyes as sharp as a wolf.
"Wow... there's even a pre-battle costume change segment?"
Xing complained, "It's a pity she only has this one battle outfit, otherwise she could show it off a bit."
roar--!!!
Another roar, powerful enough to shatter an ordinary person's eardrums, rang out, Hoolay's pupils suddenly shrank to the most dangerous pinpoints.
Saileni's chilled bubble tea, utterly ignoring his presence, instantly ignited his pent-up rage of seven hundred years and his unyielding dignity as a predator.
His disguised Foxian face twisted, and the ferocious aura he could no longer suppress exploded like a tangible wave of blood! His target was the white-robed figure holding milk tea with a sweet smile!
