At the same time, Hoolay a sinister laugh, and the lightning around him surged again. He no longer sought to kill with a single blow, but instead transformed into a continuous storm of claw strikes, raging wildly towards Saileni.
His tactics were extremely clear: use the wolf pawns to surround and restrain or even severely damage the star, and seize or disrupt the hourglass.
At the same time, he used his strongest close-quarters combat skills to entangle Saileni, giving her no chance to catch her breath or rescue him.
Hoolay intends to use the hunting tactics that the Borisin are best at—violent methods—to completely overwhelm this powerful woman!
"Tsk, they changed targets really fast. No wonder they're such a cunning leader."
Saileni's eyes sharpened; faced with Hoolay's sudden change in tactics and fierce attack, she had no time to spare for anything else.
Pale golden light swirled around her, sometimes forming a shield to defend herself, and sometimes transforming into nimble bands of light to deflect and absorb force.
Her figure moved and dodged at high speed in the narrow space, and each collision with the wolf's claws would erupt with dazzling sparks of energy and a dull thud.
Hoolay's strength was indeed slightly inferior to hers, but this gap was rapidly narrowed by her desperate, frenzied attacks and rich combat experience.
Priestess Qili was, after all, just a support role, and she had arrived in a hurry without her personal weapon. She needed to concentrate fully to weather the storm Borisin the head of the battle and could not immediately leave to support the planet.
"Hey! Don't all come at me!" Xing felt a chill run down her spine as she looked at the Borisin Li wolf soldiers rushing towards her from all directions, each with a ferocious expression.
She instinctively gripped the hourglass necklace on her chest; the warm, smooth touch reassured her slightly.
Immediately, Xing summoned her baseball bat with her other hand, lowered her body slightly, and assumed a fighting stance.
"Trying to steal the [ Eternity ] relic... did you ask my baseball bat first?"
The battlefield was instantly divided into two parts: on one side, Saileni and the Hoolay tanks clashed fiercely with their support units.
On the other side, Xing was alone facing an attack by more than a dozen Borisin Wolf Soldiers, a perilous situation.
The Hoolay to attack. Several ferocious-looking, fang- Borisin wolf soldiers, accompanied by a stench of blood and a thirst for killing intent, pounced on her from different angles.
Their claws gleamed coldly, their target the hourglass necklace containing supreme power; the narrow space was instantly filled with the shadow of death.
Xing swung her baseball bat, precisely parrying a heart-piercing claw. A wolf's sharp teeth were already inches away, but she rolled to the side to avoid it. However, another wolf's claws were already slashing towards the back of her neck with a vicious gust of wind.
Xing clicked his tongue. There was no way to avoid it. Was the invincible Galactic Baseballer about to lose...?
Haha, just kidding.
The hourglass necklace responded first, no longer emitting the passive glow it had before when defending, but instead bursting forth with an unprecedentedly dazzling starlight.
The power of [ Eternity ] instantly enveloped Xing's entire body. After the battle of Penacony, she seemed to have unlocked a new use for the [ Eternity ] hourglass.
She can both attack and defend, unparalleled in the world... But this time it's not just about defense; she has someone else in mind for the shield, the Flame Spear, which represents [ Preservation ].
Xing has been pondering whether the [ Eternity ] Path is simply a matter of numerical improvement, or... some kind of special mechanism?
As is widely known, all clergy members of the [ Church of Eternity ] have been placed in a state of stagnation and anchoring, resulting in a significant increase in lifespan, making them practically Long-Life Species.
So... can this state be applied during combat?
The answer is naturally yes, since Xingneng can do it this way. [ Eternity ] anchors her will, freezing her state at its peak at this moment!
Xing stopped dodging and instead faced the wolf pack, swinging his baseball bat.
This strike was no longer a simple technical block, but a crushing, unshakeable force.
The wolf soldier, bearing the brunt of the attack, had his enhanced claws snap like fragile, withered branches the moment they touched the mimicry baseball bat.
Immediately afterwards, Imaginary Energy surged into his chest like a torrent, shattering the thick breastplate instantly.
Borisin the wolf soldier could even scream, he felt as if he had been hit head-on by a planet-destroying cannon. He flew backward as a blurry afterimage, crashing heavily into the prison wall in the distance and embedding himself deeply into it.
star:...
Okay, it is indeed a numerical enhancement.
This overwhelming scene caused the other wolf soldiers who were rushing forward to suddenly freeze in their tracks, stopping abruptly and bewildered.
Is this... is this the same person as before?!
"The enhancement brought by [ Eternity ] is limitless! Galactic Baseballer is here, demons and monsters begone!"
The star's voice, carrying the power of multiple Path, resounded throughout the entire depths of the Prison of Deep Seclusion.
An energy combining Eternity, Preservation, Destruction, and Harmony, forming a perfect ring, exploded with unstoppable force!
I almost forgot, she doesn't only possess the power of [ Eternity ].
The Wolf Warriors Borisin the star were struck as if by an invisible giant hammer; their once-proud and resilient bodies proved incredibly fragile in the face of this power. Armor shattering and bones breaking were the most basic consequences.
Amidst screams of agony, all the wolf soldiers who had pounced on Xing were sent flying like leaves scattered by a gale, even faster than when they arrived.
They were rendered incapable of fighting, leaving behind only devastation and painful groans.
Even Hoolay, who was fiercely clashing with Saileni, showed a slight, almost imperceptible sluggishness in his movements.
He stared incredulously at the radiant figure in the center of the battlefield, a look of solemnity appearing deep in his eyes for the first time.
After being imprisoned for over seven hundred years, he was shocked to find the sky had collapsed upon his release. These two humans, radiating golden light, were stronger than the other.
While deflecting a powerful claw attack from Hoolay, Saileni glanced in the direction of Xing, her eyes filled with a relieved smile, and she even secretly gave him a thumbs up.
[ The Church of Eternity ] seems poised to become the next Chair; they might as well give her the position of prayer pastor as well.
Such an all-around talent is truly rare; it would be even more perfect if the power of [ Destruction ] could be removed.
Meanwhile, the Xianzhou Luofu
Inside Ye Yan's milk tea shop in the Central Starskiff Haven, Silver Wolf's eyes were filled with disbelief and horror.
Her attention was entirely focused on Saileni, who was able to fight Hoolay to a standstill. Who had told her that this priestess was weak in combat?!
Furthermore, it repaired the damaged mechanisms... This skill is indeed an inherent talent of healing characters, no doubt about it.
Silver Wolf turned his head and stared straight at Ye Yan, who looked completely innocent as he explained:
"That's actually reasonable. As a priestess, Saileni has a special bonus to [ Eternity ] relics; the hourglass necklace is the best example of that."
Ye Yan clicked his tongue. The current situation was that both Saileni and Hoolay thought the other was very strong, but due to geographical factors, they couldn't act freely in this Prison of Deep Seclusion.
"Oh... you mean, depending on the number of [ Eternity ] Path characters on the field, that Prayer Priest can also gain different synergy buffs?"
"This is the bond of the [ Eternity ] Traveler!"
