Aila couldn't help but feel worried. In the "Silent Field", even the magic engraved on magic items could not be used. This meant that the trigger-type defense accessories that Angeline relied on would be ineffective. In addition, the strengthening magic she cast had lost its effect a few seconds ago. She was really worried about Angeline.

Retract the preface.

The moment she saw Angelini rushing into the group of Kumi, Ella's expression became strange, like a wolf among a flock of sheep. Relying solely on her physical ability, Angelini cut a group of Kumi into pieces every time she swung her sickle like cutting wheat. If others saw it, they would definitely question whether this was an act. Even if it was an act, the weapon should be replaced with a more serious long-handled hammer instead of a sickle. But the fact is as her own eyes can see. Even the Mithril Kumi is no match for Angelini.

It took less than half a minute for Angelini to clear out all the Kumis blocking the cave entrance.

"Little Ella, come here quickly!"

"learn!"

Ignoring the bricks and Kumi fragments around her, Ella took a deep breath of the dusty, dry, cold air and followed Iris through the city wall.

In front of them was a flat land with no obstructions except Kumi. The faint halo of the sun was blocked by the distant mountains. It seemed that this was not a good place to watch the sunrise. Ella couldn't help but make such a conclusion in her heart. Without being able to use magic, she and Iris could do nothing.

To wait for the slower Ella and Iris, Angeline, racing in the front, slowly slowed down, allowing the six-person team to regroup. Seizing an opportunity, the Kumi swarmed around the rear, surrounding the six. Like the rising tide, Ella and her group, perched on the rocks, had no chance to escape. Being trapped in the enemy's camp probably applied to them all.

The team was standing in a formation with Ella and Iris in the middle, and the other four guarding each side.

“This isn’t good…”

Looking at the three Orichalcum Kumi standing in front of her, Angeline's expression became solemn. If she could use magic, the Orichalcum Kumi would just need to swing its sickle in front of her. But now that she has neither enhanced magic nor active magic, the Orichalcum Kumi has become extremely difficult to deal with. In addition, the triggered magic accessories are also ineffective because of the "Silence Field", which means that she must avoid the opponent's attacks and the battle time will be extended accordingly. In a battle where time is everything, it is simply the worst situation.

Not to mention that the "Silence Field" has almost no effect on the Kumi people, and the Kumi people themselves do not rely on magic to fight.

"Ms. Angelica, I'll be the vanguard."

Lotte, who was standing at the end of the line and facing Angelina, said.

"Is that alright? Lotte isn't suited for the position of striker, is she?"

"I'm the most suitable candidate right now."

"But what if we're attacked by archers?"

I can use my sickle to knock away the arrows, but that is impossible for Lotte. Defending against attacks for my companions is also part of the vanguard's duty.

"I'll help Lotte-senpai."

"Eh? Fukagan-chan?"

“I’ve never tried it, but it should work.”

As soon as Shen Gan finished speaking, the snowflake-shaped weapon in his hand lit up with a green light. The metal piece that was originally only the size of a palm instantly became about two meters in diameter. The area behind it was enough to hide the entire person, which made people think of a shield.

"This can block the attack, but the side—"

"Leave it to me."

"Is it okay, Senior?"

"Even though I can't use magic, there are more than one way to resist the enemy."

Whether it is the Flashing Orb, the Explosion Fruit, or a less powerful spear, they can all be useful at this time.

After a brief hesitation, Shen Gan nodded, and then the team changed its formation, with Luty and Shen Gan standing in the front, Angelica at the rear, and Mitis and Ella guarding the sides respectively.

"Stop them!"

Upon noticing that Ella and her group were starting to move, Orichalcum Kumi immediately gave orders to his subordinates. Oz's intention was to delay time, so they were of course happy for Ella to continue the conversation as she had just done, but unfortunately, the entire conversation took less than ten seconds.

Clang clang clang.

A shield wall composed of dozens of Kumi holding huge shield towers blocked the front of the team, and between the shields, there were spears extending to prevent the soldiers from attacking. If it was a normal battle, it could only be broken by cavalry detours or the use of large equipment. Even Angelini would feel helpless. However, what they were facing was not normal weapons, but Hela, a weapon at the top of magical technology and named after the goddess of death in Norse mythology.

The crystal shot out straight, trailing a dazzling orange-red tail flame. Before countless Kumi could react, it easily penetrated the shield, followed by a deafening roar.

boom!

The indestructible line of defense collapsed in an instant.

"It's now!"

Even without Iris's orders, everyone knew what to do.

Rushing over the bodies of the Kumi people.

But before they had taken a few steps, a voice hidden behind the smoke and dust made everyone's heart sink.

"Archers, release!"

"Leave it to me, 'Maximize'."

Replacing Lotte, Fukagami's tiny form blocked everyone's view. A surge of cyan light instantly filled their vision, accompanied by the whirring sound of sharp objects tearing through the air. As if someone were looking down from above, a massive hexagonal snowflake, approximately thirty meters in diameter, appeared on the ground. Astonishingly, the cyan snowflake continued to spin at an ever-increasing speed.

Naturally, the rain of arrows was completely blocked by "Ondine's Curse", but Fukagan's attack did not stop. Instead, he used up almost all of his magic power to launch a blow as the snowflakes spun to the extreme, as if to throw out Ondine's Curse.

If Angelica was a wolf among the sheep, then the "Curse of Wendini" thrown by Shen Gan now was like a dragon kicking in the pasture. The Kumi that was blocking the way was shattered into pieces just by the slightest touch of the snowflake-shaped weapon. Combined with the weapon's diameter of nearly 30 meters, the entire training ground was like Moses parting the sea, clearing a hundred-meter-long uninhabited passage.

"Huh."

"Fukan?"

Ella immediately took a step forward and supported Shen Gan, who was shaking a little. Shen Gan waved to Ella, indicating that he didn't need help, and then sighed.

"I'm fine, but I need to rest for a while before I can get back into battle."

"Well, let's go quickly before the Kumi closes up again."

As long as you run out of this distance, the effect of the "Silence Field" will disappear, and once you can use magic, the Kumi people will no longer pose a threat.

Secretly expressing gratitude to Shengang in their hearts, Ella and her group began to gallop again. Even Ella, who had the weakest physical strength, could run much faster than an ordinary adult at full speed due to her level. In addition, Shengang's attack just now shattered one-fifth of Kumi. Ella even felt that she could avoid Oz's pursuit even without taking any action herself. She had originally planned to use the flash jade to buy time to switch states. Although she might be seen, it was better than being caught by Oz and having the identities of her group discovered.

If Oz discovered his and Iris' identities, and considered that Iris and Angelique stayed in a residential house together a few days ago, he might be exposed in front of Kiru.

When they ran to a distance of about 70 meters, the separated Kumi gathered together again, but to the current Branch of Disaster, the Kumi were no longer a threat.

The effect of the "Silencing Field" has worn off.

"Ella-chan, strengthen your magic. We can use the teleportation scroll when we're a little further away."

"knew!"

"Everyone, get out of my way! Sword Dance!"

A riot of color lit up simultaneously, and the already overwhelmed Kumi instantly collapsed like a sand castle. As for why Ella and her group didn't use flight magic, it was because flying magic was far slower than running, and they wouldn't use it unless absolutely necessary.

Until the ochre earth suddenly rose up.

A several-meter-thick earth wall suddenly appeared on the original route.

Elise smacked her lips.

"Tsk, — 『Jūrō no Lance: Kai』."

Not just one, but several times of chanting, five two-meter-long green javelins, as thick as arms, suddenly penetrated into the earth wall.

""liberation"."

The technique modified by Iris exploded with a bang, a low muffled sound was heard, and a one-meter-long hole was instantly blown out in the entire earth wall.

"Go through!"

"You have no way to escape."

Chapter 77: The Land of Dreams

Like teleportation, Oz suddenly appeared in front of the team, so that Angelica, who was at the front, almost bumped into Oz.

Teleport?

Since Kumi has difficulty learning magic, he certainly can't "teleport", so the only possibility is other magic. Except for "flash" which can be blocked by obstacles, before level 60, there is only one remaining possibility.

Could it be "Shrinking the Earth"?

Ella's purple eyes narrowed slightly. 'Shrinking the Earth' is a common skill used by magic casters in 'F.Wing' after reaching level 50. Although it has the flaw of only being usable on the ground, it is a rare evasive skill for magic casters in the early stages, and almost every magic caster will learn it.

[Is it the ability of the Seal of Sloth...?]

If Oz had used "Shrinking the Earth" just now, he would have to defeat Oz now. With "Shrinking the Earth" and "Gravity Field", it would be almost impossible for him to escape. Iris should not have many intermediate-level "Wind Protection" gems in her possession.

Angeline, the vanguard, began to retreat, and everyone put about ten meters between them and Oz. Ella first looked at Mitis and Lotte, who nodded. They had Mitis take Lotte flying, creating a sniper opportunity for her. If she remembered correctly, Lotte still had three fifth-tier magical consumables, one Eye of Loki, and two Wrath of Hephaestus, her biggest trump cards.

Looking at Ella's little movements, Oz narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Give up your resistance. Your presence here is a testament to your courage. I have always respected the brave, and for the Saint's sake, I will forgive you. However, the Saint's identity is in doubt. Until her identity is confirmed, you and her must remain in the Kingdom of Kumheim."

Oz's words made Ella smack her lips. If Oz had said it earlier, she and her group wouldn't have to go through so much trouble to bring Angelique out - no, with Oz's personality, she couldn't be sure that Oz would definitely recognize Jinghua's identity. No matter what, Angelique's fate should be in her own hands.

As for what Oz said, that both sides do not need to fight and just wait for the final decision, although it is a good suggestion, the problem is that once his group, Oz and Kiru appear in the same place, the fact that the demons have concealed from the elves that Angelini has already been in their hands will almost certainly be exposed. In that case, things will become unpredictable, at least he will not know how it will end.

[So, the answer has been determined...]

Ella took a deep breath.

"Mitis!"

As they shouted, everyone moved together. Lottie flew up under the leadership of Mitis, Angeline and Shen Gan, who had recovered his magic power, rushed towards Oz respectively, and Iris chanted magic behind her. Judging from the long and rhythmic spell, she was preparing a large-scale annihilation magic.

But Oz seemed not to notice the actions of others, and just stared at Ella with his hollow eyes.

"The Seal of Sloth is trembling. Who are you?"

A few days ago, the Seal of Sloth also trembled like this, and the visitor at that time was a mysterious person named Entarosphiel.

"Just an ordinary demon."

"If you don't want to talk, then leave first!"

As soon as he finished speaking, visible earth elements began to gather in the air. The rich ochre light was so tangible that it made it difficult to breathe. In just a blink of an eye, the orderly arranged elements formed a yellow light column that shot up into the sky, and even the thin clouds floating in the sky were torn into pieces in an instant.

Ella had seen the same scene once before in the royal capital. It was the "Curse of Sloth," the most powerful sealing technique.

【Just dodge it.】

Ella thought so in her heart, and in her vision she could see Oz taking the blows from Angeline and Shen Gan, his body swaying from side to side.

Becoming alert, Ella immediately ran to the right to avoid accidentally hurting Iris who was chanting magic behind her. However, Oz's control over the Seal of Sloth had obviously improved a lot. Ella had just taken a few steps to the side when a khaki beam of light about the size of a human head rushed straight towards Ella.

"Ella-chan!"

"Don't worry."

Ella couldn't help but stick out her tongue at Iris's concern for her as she actually interrupted the magic for her own sake. Although she was very happy about Iris's concern, she still hoped that it would not appear at such a critical moment.

"accelerate"

"Acceleration·Double"

The speed of the whole person increased again. Ella turned her head and looked behind her. Although her speed was still not as fast as the khaki light, there was no problem in dodging it. In just a blink of an eye, she had run ten meters.

Ella couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when she saw the ochre light passing through the place where she had just stood. However, the next scene made Ella's heart tighten in an instant.

The beam of light paused in the air for a moment, and then, as if it had eyes, it readjusted its direction and headed straight towards him.

"You must be kidding!"

While being shocked, Ella clenched the Arrow of Fire. She certainly couldn't give up here. Since the other party liked to chase her, she would run until the other party's magic power was exhausted.

"Acceleration·Triple"

"Acceleration Extreme"

If she could use "Intermediate Acceleration", the four-times acceleration skill would definitely leave the light column far behind, but since she couldn't use it, she couldn't expect anything. While Ella was trying to balance her body and avoid bumping into the Kumi soldiers, she was moving across the flat ground with the green afterimage left by the "Acceleration". At her current speed, it would take at least a quarter of an hour for the light column to catch up with her.

Ella even began to wonder what Oz meant by "The Seal of Sloth is trembling."

"A coincidence? The Sin Seal shouldn't be able to detect other characters' levels, otherwise the Sin Seal we encountered before would have noticed it long ago. Or is it not trembling because of me? But if that's the case, why didn't Mitis, who was also nearby, react? Could it be that Sloth has a special detection ability? Well, since Sloth is still sealed, there's no need to worry about Oz finding out—huh?"

She felt something lightly bumping against her chest, and her whole body slowed down. Ella subconsciously lowered her head.

The khaki pillar of light that had been behind him moved in front of him—no, a second 『Sloth Curse』 appeared on the field, attacking him from both sides. As evidence, the pillar of light that he had originally thrown away also hit his back.

The two consecutive "Sloth Curse" made Ella stop and stand there in a daze.

My body gradually became heavy, and my consciousness was slowly pulled out of my body. Drowsiness and a feeling of falling surged into my brain, and even the beating of my heart became weaker. Although I wanted to switch roles immediately and refresh my current state, I couldn't concentrate at all. I didn't even have the strength to move my fingers.

Is it... sealed...?

The next second after she realized it, her body lost control and Ella fell to the ground.

Very warm sunshine.
