The magic cards I made are absolutely flawless!

"Don't worry, Alice, it's not that bad! My brother's here too, he'll help Dekan if things get tough!"

Flora showed no signs of nervousness, and even her tone remained normal.

Of all the people, she seemed to have the best mindset.

"Morion is here too?"

Cornelia looked at Flora with slight surprise and asked.

Although Dekan had instructed Cornelia and Chloex to keep an eye out for Morion a few days earlier, she hadn't found him at all.

"Hmm... During my performance, I noticed that there was an audience member who really felt like an older brother, even though he changed his appearance every day... I felt like he was an older brother!"

Flora smiled and nodded in affirmation.

Although her reasons sound completely absurd.

However, considering Flora's naturally powerful insight.

Even if Morion uses Contact Mimicry to disguise himself in any form, Flora would still be able to recognize her brother's true identity.

Cornelia believed Flora's judgment was correct.

Having endured long-term, high-intensity challenges in the Shadow World, Morion is probably already close to reaching the sixth rank. After his accidental entry into the seventh-rank Shadow World, Morion is likely now at the sixth rank.

Despite being a businessman and con artist, Morion is not much of a fighter.

However, he and Dekan have excellent support synergy, and Dekan would definitely receive great support if he were there.

"Dekan, Chloex, Morion... they all have to come back safe and sound, meow..."

Cornelia's cat teacher made a soft sound.

"Don't worry, everyone will definitely reunite and celebrate like they did at the end of the last movie in the movie world."

Cornelia gently stroked the cat teacher who was curled up in a ball and said softly.

……

Philoven Arena.

Although the Pope still maintains control over the four, his mindset has now shifted somewhat.

The Pope, who shouldn't be experiencing such a lowly emotion as anger, seems genuinely annoyed by Dekan.

Xiao Zong?

Dekan did not appear to be deliberately provoking.

Instead, it's like a leader addressing a subordinate by their first name, with a superficial friendliness masking a hint of condescension, referring to the Pope as such.

The Pope has never encountered any inferior human being who dares to despise him so sincerely.

Even a mad bishop wouldn't dare to be this arrogant, would he?

Meanwhile, Dekan, who was focused on understanding people's mindsets, also understood the Pope's reaction.

He quickly covered his mouth.

He feigned surprise at realizing he had said something inappropriate.

"Master Da Zong, guess how many moles we'll catch today? I'm a little worried your heart can't take it."

Pope "?"

Although Dekan has changed his title and no longer refers to him as "Little Zong".

But no matter how the Pope listened, he felt that the title "Great Teacher" was Decan's way of mocking him.

And what did Dekan mean by that?

Besides Dekan, who is clearly a mole, are there other moles within the Church of Resurrection?

The Pope immediately began a brainstorming session.

It is known that there is an insider who is embezzling funds.

And it was probably this traitor who helped Dekan during the seventh-tier team assessment in the Kingdom of Landil...

But judging from Sheen and Dekan's reactions...

Sheen doesn't seem to be connected to the mole, otherwise he wouldn't have hesitated for so long.

Decan's attitude was like that of a mole who knew something even the Pope hadn't noticed.

Surely the mole who makes money and the mole who secretly helps Dekan can be two different people?

Could there be other moles among them?

You have to understand that every additional mole adds to the problem.

The enemy will need to add a bishop to their fighting force.

Not only will he lose one bishop's combat power, but compared to an open traitor like Dekan, the most fatal thing about a hidden traitor is that he will betray the enemy at a crucial moment and cause a huge upheaval!

If there really were more traitors than he imagined, the Pope felt somewhat uncertain about what should have been a sure-win situation.

The more he thought about it, the stranger it seemed, and he even began to doubt himself.

But in an instant, the Pope suddenly realized something.

That seemingly simple question was Dekan's trap.

The Pope's only fear now is an internal traitor.

Catching the mole was also one of the Pope's objectives in this operation.

Decan seized upon and exploited this point in an attempt to shake the Pope's resolve!

When the Pope came to his senses, he realized that he had indeed been distracted by Decan's question.

The Pope glared at Dekan; this tormented bishop was truly annoyed beyond measure!

And taking advantage of the brief moment when the Pope was distracted.

Dekan had already picked up the [Sword of Despair] and swung it with a mournful howl, triggering [Three Corpses Frenzy] and summoning [Captain Dekan] and [Captain Dekan Ghost]!

The Pope's mental spell resistance was weakened by [Batchell's Sword of Despair].

Further influenced by the desires aroused by the [Three Corpses Frenzy] and the rage of [Captain De'erkan].

Instantly, the flames of anger in his heart turned into a raging inferno!

At last.

Even if Captain Derkan was instantly killed by the Pope's Life Stealing.

Its mocking effect still had a brief effect on the Pope.

"here you go!"

Sheen had been waiting for this moment when Dekan's strongest control would be applied to the Pope!

As soon as Sheen took a step forward, the arena froze as if time and space had been distorted.

Behind the arena stood a giant magical machine, its surface shimmering with mesmerizing and magnificent light.

This incredibly spectacular magical device is none other than the Artificial Shadow World Activator!

The next second, two void gates swallowed up both Sheen and the immobilized Pope.

The broadcast switched, showing Phantom Canyon in addition to the battle in the arena.

This time, Phantom Canyon was no longer a sunny hill like in previous matches.

Instead, it was a vast, boundless ice field, where even the sound of wind and snow was filled with a chilling, desolate atmosphere!

Compared to the dark night that was currently enveloping the Philoven Arena.

As the sun rises over Phantom Canyon, its rays illuminate the glacier, creating shimmering arcs of light that seem to symbolize victory.

Sheen just used his administrator privileges to imprison the Pope and himself in the Kingdom Federation's highest scientific research achievement—the Artificial Shadow World!

On the ice field.

Sheen floated in the air like a god.

Looking down at the Pope from his high vantage point.

"In this shadow world belonging to the kingdom, our roles have been reversed."

Sheen said coldly.

This is Sheen's preparation.

Without a doubt, King Philowen is the home turf of the Kingdom Federation. Whether it's energy or magical equipment, they can call upon the core resources of the Kingdom Federation, and have everything they need.

The Church of Resurrection has a portal to space, and the Kingdom Alliance also has an artificial shadow world!

Now is the time to showcase the ultimate achievements of magical engineering.

The latest and highest-spec artificial shadow world activation device in the capital of Philowen is not only used for the competition, but also, under the control of the administrator, is itself a ninth-order magic barrier!

This barrier has the energy of the entire Kingdom of Philowen as a backup, so it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call Shin the final boss of the ninth-order shadow world at this moment.

“Agamemnon, I have divined the way to defeat you, and the answer is the barrier. No matter how powerful you are, there is a supreme power that you cannot resist, and this is the only way to defeat you. Phantom Canyon was born for this purpose.”

Sheen seemed to be talking to himself.

But every word he uttered sounded like a heavy hammer to the Pope!

It seemed to foreshadow his inevitable downfall.

In the end, it was as if each word carried immense weight, and an invisible wave of sound swept over the Pope!

The distance between Sheen and the Pope was originally only a few dozen meters, but now, on the ice, strange sound waves could be seen rushing towards the Pope, like raging waves of the sea!

The Pope immediately retreated to create distance, no longer daring to use [Chaos Guardian] to withstand all attacks as he had done outside.

He knew very well that Shin, who now dominated the Phantom Canyon barrier and had the support of the entire Philowen Kingdom's energy center, was no longer the support character with little offensive capabilities!

Rather, what truly threatens him are the gods within this shadow world!

It seemed that even space was controlled by Sheen; the more the Pope tried to retreat, the less distance he could maintain between himself and Sheen.

Sheen pointed a finger at the Pope from afar and slowly said, "Show me your true abilities and let me see what you arrogant, god-like guys are all about."

So far, the Pope has only demonstrated human-like power.
