"No, no, no, I think you've misunderstood something."
The young man shook his head like a rattle drum.
"That was originally my plan, but someone told me that it wouldn't matter if I died now, so..."
"You will die here today."
Do you think you can kill me?
Behind Wens, blood energy surged, and his entire body became hazy, clearly indicating that he was truly enraged.
At the tip of the staff in the young man's hand, the enormous amber jewel was now glowing with a dim, yellowish light.
"You may not know, but besides sealing, I'm also skilled in... summoning."
A cold smile curled at the corner of the young man's lips. The light at the tip of his staff shone even brighter, and intense Psionic Energy surged continuously, as if something was about to tear open the barrier Material Plane and the Sea of Psionic Energy and burst forth from the ground.
However, with a formidable enemy at hand, despite the dazzling light, Wens dared not cover his eyes or his face, for fear of missing that fleeting opportunity.
The black-haired youth had already begun chanting loudly:
"Answer my call, obey my command, offer me the blood of my enemies! I hereby call: fierce, great, powerful, bloodthirsty, and fearsome—"
" Liya!"
"Ha?"
A sudden burst of intense light caused even the players on the distant battlefield to be temporarily blinded by the flash.
As the players cried out in despair, Wens went completely blind at that moment.
However, his hearing remained sharp enough to detect the blade already approaching his neck from behind.
There's no escaping it!
"Pfft~"
Wens achieved the feat of "human-machine separation," his neck was severed in an instant, and his entire head flew high into the air.
He turned around in astonishment, only to see a human woman in a gray stealth suit wielding two elven scimitars, severing his head with a swift, precise motion, as if cutting a thread with scissors.
What surprised him most was not the person's appearance and equipment, but the fact that he had not sensed another High Tier being at all before.
Even now, he only sensed her presence the moment she exerted her strength to behead him, and then, as her head flew high into the air, her presence vanished once more.
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he truly wouldn't have believed that a human could possess stealth skills comparable to York's.
Another point that bothered Wens was...
This human is wearing sunglasses!
Based on the human mage's incantation and dazzling flashes of light earlier, how could Wens not realize that he had been tricked?
What summoning magic is there?
The two had planned this from the beginning: one would set off a high-powered flashbang in front, while the other would put on sunglasses beforehand and launch a fatal attack from behind while being blinded.
Under normal circumstances, and even in the minds of ordinary people, how could someone use all the immense Psionic Energy— enough to unleash several High Tier spells—to release a flash of light?
Even looking back over my nearly ten thousand years of memories, such a thing has never happened before.
And I, just like that, fell for it today.
What a beast!
With that thought in mind, Wens ' head plummeted into the Blood Pool.
His body was being repeatedly tossed and turned by the human woman, dismantled in the same way York often did.
A series of thuds rang out as Wens fell back into the Blood Pool and began to recover.
Seeing this, Nuowa immediately ordered his "generals" to stop the pursuit.
Although Wens was dismantled into pieces, the danger beneath the Blood Pool was hundreds of times greater than that outside.
Don't be fooled by Liya's ability to turn Wens into a human pig with a single sneak attack; once she enters the Blood Pool, the tide of battle will turn in an instant.
This is also why Willow and Noya, despite being able to suppress Wins with firepower, have been unable to completely kill Wens.
Besides their insufficient damage output, they also lack the ability to fight in Blood Pool.
Several alchemical golems flew over at this moment, with Willow following closely behind.
The two sides exchanged glances. Although they weren't exactly familiar with each other, they were both NPCs in Ed's faction, so they at least knew each other.
Wens would be attacked as soon as he came out, and everyone would be ambushed as soon as they entered the Blood Pool. The situation was temporarily deadlocked, which even gave everyone a little time to exchange pleasantries.
Upon seeing the last lich in the world, Nuowa was amazed, never expecting that such a creature would still exist.
He asked politely:
"Do you have a grudge against Wens?"
Willow's eyes lit up, and she nodded repeatedly:
"Yes, he killed my family. You also have a grudge against Wens?"
Nuowa nodded repeatedly:
"Yes... but clearly your grudge is greater."
As she said this, the " Short-Eared Elf " rolled her eyes and suddenly had another idea.
He tentatively asked:
"Do you have to kill Wens with your own hands?"
Willow shook her head:
"My participation is enough. If you two hadn't come, I would have been killed very soon."
Nuowa nodded in thought.
" Wens ' vitality is too strong; he cannot be killed by normal means."
He looked around and sighed:
"Moreover, in my opinion, although the skeleton's self-destruction severely injured Wens, it actually helped him in the process."
As he spoke, he pointed to the bubbling Blood Pool directly below:
"If he hadn't blasted such a big crater, Wens wouldn't have been so difficult to defeat."
"And look at this, is this even Blood Pool? This is practically a 'blood lake'!"
Nuowa was right. Sailesi wasn't the only one to receive the [ Divine Wings ] death gift; Wens, the enemy he originally wanted to kill, also did.
Using the large, hemispherical pit, Wens gathered his nutrient-rich blood, creating Blood Pool over ten meters deep—enough to set up several fishing spots for rent in another world.
With this Blood Pool, Wens is practically invincible in this area.
unless...
There is a way to separate Wens from the Blood Pool.
Nuowa said seriously:
"To truly kill him, we must get him out of the Blood Pool area."
He looked down at the ground and saw that almost the entire battlefield was still covered in blood as deep as the instep, which could actually be considered Wens's Blood Pool. So he changed his tune:
"At the very least, we need to separate him from the 'blood lake'."
Upon hearing this, Willow, Noya, and Liya all nodded in agreement.
At this moment, Wens is like a big boss in a game with a "one-hit limit". If the damage is not enough within the specified time, Wens will revive on the spot, making all the previous damage wasted.
Willow was only a newcomer to the High Tier and was not capable of playing a leading role in such a battle. At this moment, she realized that she could only play a supporting role.
Fortunately, Nuowa and Liya, the two "vampire hunters," arrived. Putting aside everything else, at least in terms of dealing with vampires, these two are indeed very experienced.
"And Wens isn't stupid; once he realizes our plan, he won't fall for it."
Nuowa said seriously:
"Then my solution is—fishing."
