Age of Adepts

The blood on Benija's body wasn't her own.

Even though her mind sorcery was as powerful as it was, and could easily confuse the ears and minds of those middle and low level Paladins, she was never able to evade the detection of the Holy Light Divine Art.

Heaven forbid, Benicia had traveled through countless planes, met countless indigenous tribes and intelligent races, and had never seen the strange guy who stopped pedestrians all over the street to broadcast 'detect evil'. Under this kind of pure holy light, disguised as a big family cook who came out to buy supplies, Benicia's body immediately emitted a dazzling red mane, and the disguise technique she had been equipped with vanished into thin air.

To be honest, the middle-aged knight with a face full of **, who casually spread a holy light to envelop Benicia, did not expect to be able to catch a 'big fish'.

In the past few days, with 'Detecting Evil', they had uncovered more than a dozen fearsome assassins or rogue villains who walked in the darkness and shadows from the small town. But even that leader of the assassins who had brutally killed a dozen people, the red mane emitted was not as strong as the eleven of the strange woman in front of him.

Thus, when he saw the blinding red mane of Benija's body that was aglow with holy light, as well as the red and black body, his entire body was almost stunned!

"Scratch..." the middle-aged silver knight was only halfway through drawing his sword from his waist when he was toppled to the ground by an oncoming psychic shockwave.

When he was dizzy and barely able to get up from the ground, the woman was no longer visible in any part of the street in front of him. At this time, the Black Iron Knights scattered all over the streets who were detecting pedestrians only woke up, and an eye-catching Holy Light Bomb immediately flew into the sky.

The small town boiled in an instant!

"You said there were golden knights in that little town?" The giant serpent sorcerer Natagu narrowed his eyes and hissed as he lightly spat out snake mail.

"Well, if it's not the Golden Knight, how can I get into such a mess!" Benigia wiped the spots of blood from her body in a bad mood, "That group of Paladins are like crazy blocking off the small town and searching all over the city for me. Every single person out of the city they had to shine with that damned holy light..."

"And then what?"

"Then I fought them in front of the city, killed a few..."

"You killed someone?"

"Kill! One by one those guys shouting 'holy light is justice' just went up, and you want me to tie my hands?" Benicia scoffed without good humor.

"Where's that golden knight?" The look on Natagoo's face grew more solemn.

"I didn't know there were golden knights in the city, and when I killed a few little ones and was going to get away, I was stopped by two golden knights. Then I managed to get away and run back!"

"Two... "Natagoo's bizarre turquoise snake pupils contracted abruptly, and his tone became a little colder.

According to the past habits of the Zambis Empire, it was already surprising that a small city with a population of less than ten thousand like that could send a Silver Knight to preside over the Chapel of Holy Light. But now that two Gold Knights had suddenly appeared in the small city, this... was clearly not the normal stationing or patrolling actions of the Paladins.

For no reason at all, a whiff of ill omen floated in Natagu's heart!

It couldn't be that those Paladins had become a little more ambitious after 'destroying' the Fraudulent Witch, so they had set their sights on a few of their 3rd level witches, right? With these arrogant and arrogant Paladins who closed their foyers, they were probably thinking of taking this opportunity to clear away all the remaining or hidden wizards and bring the entire Enewick Plane back under their dominance.

Such thoughts couldn't be wrong, except that those Paladins might be taking it a little too much for granted!

That time when they were able to 'smoothly' knock down the Sorceress Tower and purge the remaining Sorceresses, apart from their own unparalleled bravery and undaunted sacrifice, they actually relied more on the self-promotion among the Sorcerers.

Without the interference of that mysterious 'lord', it was impossible for the Lena Witch to end up in such a miserable state. Without the cooperation of Natagoo and the Holy Knight, Grim would have already swept away that Hessian Chapel with his own strength and escaped with Lena and the witch array mending materials in tow.

It was due to the interference and influence of many factors that the situation in the Enewick Precinct became so unpredictable, even Grim was trapped inside the volcano for five years.

And now that it was becoming calmer within the bit, those Paladins were unwilling to be alone and wanted to clear out the last batch of tumors from the Gonsas Volcano again. This...kind of made Natagoo's heart flutter!

If it was just a bunch of little guys that came, the strength of Natagu's four hunting witches would be enough to exterminate their squads of a hundred and a thousand. However, with Natagu's knowledge of the Zambis Empire, I'm afraid that behind these little guys there were two big names that even he didn't dare to provoke easily.

"What do they want? Want to go to war with us?" Natagoo hissed with hatred.

"Doesn't that make sense?" Gwynevere was worthy of being an old poisonous woman with a poisonous eye, heart and brain, and picked apart the other party's intention behind the scenes in a single breath: "The other party thinks we've stayed here too long, and is just using this method to force us to leave!"

"But we haven't caught that damned fire witch..."

"They don't care about that..." the old poisonous woman said coldly, "We're fighting here for a short time, they might be able to cover it up. But after a long time, news will always leak out here. Within the kingdom they rule, there's a group of outsiders shouting at each other and occupying a hundred-mile radius of land in disguise, those Paladins might not be able to withstand the pressure of public opinion within the empire either!"

"They are taking the route of faith worship, and if they cannot prove that the Holy Light is righteous and overshadows all evil, I'm afraid that the foundation of their faith among the children of the empire will also be shaken..." the blade Katy also added coldly beside her.

The four Witch Hunters said one thing to each other, and in almost no time at all, they guessed the 'plot' and 'calculation' behind the incident in the small town. Who said those holy knights couldn't play with their brains, this time they did it drop dead.

If that 4th rank holy knight tore up the original agreement based on this, not even Natagoo would be able to find a basis or regulation to condemn his opponent.

Ultimately, this interdimensional chase had dragged on for too long!

"How's that fire witch doing this time?" Natagoo's turquoise snake pupils hinted at a cold mane and asked in a harsh voice.

He was asking about Benija, whose mental perception was the strongest among the four.

"The other party is entrenched beneath the fire pond, there hasn't been any movement for more than half a month, it seems like he's conducting some strange sorcery experiment, his mental fluctuations are very violent!" Benicia replied simply.

"That's just as well, we don't have to keep tormenting him, we'll just fight him hard!"

Upon hearing this, the rest of the witches were uplifted, confused, or hesitant, their expressions varying.

"To the bottom of the fire pit?" Old Poison Woman hesitated, "That's the home turf of the Fire Witch, we're at a disadvantage there!"

"There's nothing we can do, we'll have to fight hard against that fire witch once even if we have to take some losses." When things came to a head, Natagu also gave up his past cautiousness and became fierce and direct, "If we wait any longer, I'm afraid it will be those two 4th rank holy knights with a large group that will come to besiege us. While the Holy Knights are still brewing and not making any efforts, we can leave this damned place before it's too late if we work together and take down the Fire Witch with a bang. Even if it's worth paying a small price for it!"

With that, Natagoo forced everyone on the scene with a fierce and cold gaze.

Blade-Katie was the first to nod her head in response.

Her injuries had dragged on for so many years, and in the absence of mechanical reconcilers, her own flesh and blood had become somewhat black and stale from the contamination of mechanical sorcerous energy. Thus of the four, it was she who was the most desperate to return to the Domain as soon as possible.

The second nod was not even the mind warlock Benija, but the most cunning old poisonous woman, Gwynevere.

"Fine, it's not impossible to want my wife to accompany you guys to break into the fire pit. However, after capturing that fire witch, I want to get that soul armor on him!"

"Soul armed? You've fallen for his plague spirit? But the soul armor is never fused with the host soul, so how do you peel it off?" Natagoo squinted his eyes curiously and asked.

"You don't have to worry about that, since my wife has made this request, she is naturally confident that she can strip the soul armor. Although the stripped soul armament will lose quite a bit of its power, it will still have no problem acting as a powerful witch weapon of the plague system. That Plague Poison Spirit, Wifezi can plan to have a good f*cking time!"

To avoid any complications, Natagoo hesitated and nodded.

"What about you? And what do you want?" Natagoo stared at Benija.

"I want that fire witch to stay with me for one night, just one night!" Benicia licked her red lips, looking hungry for more.

"You're not going to do anything to that fire witch, are you?" Natagoo said coldly, "Benija, don't forget, that fire witch was named by the lord. If we deliver it to the lord, he will die, and all our quest rewards will be halved!"

"Well, my lord only said to live, but he didn't say he couldn't draw on his spiritual energy. There's nothing wrong with me sucking a little of his spirit, right?" Whirling around Benigia smiled again, "Don't worry, I won't suck him to death, I'll leave a little spirit seed for him..."

After a quick thought, and making sure there was no problem, the Giant Serpent Sorcerer Natagoo also said coldly, "Then I'll take his 3rd stage metal puppet, it looks like a nice little guy too!"

Old Poison Woman and Benicia secretly despised each other's shamelessness in their hearts, but they each had what they wanted, but it was not good for them to fight with Natagoo for that powerful metal puppet anymore.

This kind of booty distribution was actually linked to the strength between them, and now that Dagger Kitty's strength was at the bottom, she naturally didn't have the qualifications to grab the booty from them.

However, with Knife Katie's 'familiarity' with that Fire Witch, she naturally didn't believe that the other party would be so easily restrained. Thus, she coldly looked around at the fierce and somewhat titillating and expectant looks of several of her companions and scowled inwardly.

Hmph, an arrogant, arrogant fellow, if that fire witch was easy to deal with, the few of them would still be dragging their feet here for five years... Hmph, if we weren't on the same team as them, I'd love to see them bang their heads to pieces!
