Leves had seen exceedingly great power before. Even though the magical beasts had extraordinary power, their powers were still comparable to the witchcraft that they had released. The natures of the two were different, but the powers each held were similar.
The main difference lay within the mind power. Leves reckoned that the mind power of the Saintess was beyond level four wizards. When Leves was at the tower of the wizards, he had heard Mr. Anthony talking about the abilities, as well as other horrifying things regarding the level four wizards. However, he had never encountered them personally before.
The Knights of Light, traveling from more than 10 miles away, had finally arrived. The delay of one to two minutes caused by Leves and the Owl Knights had resulted in them missing a great opportunity. They now had nowhere to retreat. There was only one way out for them. Perhaps, from the moment Leves formed the Wizard Alliance, he could only move forward. Thus, there was no retreat for him.
Ten thousand knights dashed forward from the hillside like a tsunami, defeating the Owl Knights. Leves’ face darkened like charcoal. He felt that the situation had snuck up on him, suddenly changing without warning. He had been too carried away by success, and by the time he realized the change, it was too late.
Leves looked at the woman standing alone at the city wall. She was surrounded by crumbling fences and dilapidated buildings. There were also a number arrows and dead bodies of Owl Knights as well. “Go, kill her. We have to kill her,” he ordered.
As a Knight of Light swept forth on his horse, Leves killed him with his sword. He then threw himself over the horse as he shouted out to the members of the Wizard Alliance. All eyes were fixed on Saintess Kelly. As long as they could kill her, they would be able to turn the tables in this battle.
The five remaining wizards charged toward Saintess Kelly alongside Leves. The situation at the city wall was chaotic. The Owl Knights and the Knights of Light were fighting with one another, and although the Knights of Light had surrounded the Owl Knights, the battlefield had been divided into many small battlefields. The individual combat strengths of each of the Owl Knights was powerful and they formed small groups, fighting aggressively against the strongest troop of the Light Clan.
Members of the Shaman Group dashed toward the city wall. Everyone took out their spellcasting media, preparing to use the new spells. Leves was at the forefront, a huge fireball forming in his hands. He bombarded Kelly with it, as Henry flew up on the other side. Henry was a level two wizard, able to fly already. Using his unique witchcraft, alchemy equipment and magnetic iron pieces surrounded Henry as he flew. These pieces could be used as a protective layer as well as assault weapons.
Everyone used their individual witchcraft and the six of them jointly attacking Saintess Kelly. Saintess Kelly moved her hand, sending a bright ray flashing across the sky. The three beside Leves, took precautionary measures to avoid the ray. However, Leves was the Saintess’ main target.
Leves’s mind power transformed into a mental forcefield, countering the Judgment of Light released by the Saintess. However, the forcefield was instantly destroyed, leaving him vulnerable and injured, making his head feel as if it had been hit by a hammer, and his focus had relaxed.
The Judgment of Light swept past the Explosive Flame Witchcraft displayed by Leves, dissolving it. At this moment, the rest of them had no time for Leves and disregarded him as they moved forth to jointly attack the Saintess.
Four of them attacked the Saintess together. The divine incantation, which was used by the Saintess to influence man’s consciousness, had no effect on the wizards. The Saintess activated the Judgment of Light, but it could only attack the wizards superficially. Their enhanced bodies and mind powers were extremely sensitive, allowing them to speedily avoid the attacks. These people regularly fought with wizards, and hence, were familiar with the combat methods they used. Thus, they avoided the attacks and continued to approach the Saintess.
As the Saintess was counteracting their witchcraft, Henry made use of the opportunity to attack the Saintess with his alchemy weapon. More than 10 patches spun around and cut the Saintess’ throat, like blades.
The Saintess suddenly turned to look at Henry, her cold gaze shooting past the mask and making Henry feel as if his mind was frozen. The mask on her face spread out, transforming into rays of light and merging into the world. Everyone, including those on the battlefield, felt the world go suddenly quiet.
“Realm of god!”
Lu Zhiyu’s dream world spread out. Everyone within the radius of a few thousand meters was brought into the dream world. The dream element spread across the entire battle field. Everyone stopped moving, including the Knights of Light and the Owl Knights, as though they had been frozen in time. Then, hundreds and thousands of Owl Knights suddenly died.
The mind powers and consciousness of the wizards had been suppressed, and they could not move. Henry was now near Saintess Kelly. Just one move, and he could have killed Kelly, but he could now only look at her, unable to mobilize himself at all.
Kelly’s hair blew up in the wind as she looked at Henry with her dark pupils. She was expressionless, like a statute of god. She lifted up her hand gently, sending shivers through Henry. Finding himself unable to break free, he let out a desperate cry, “Oh, no!”
A white ray engulfed Henry, causing him to gradually disappear into the air, like vapor. Leves was the first to come out of the dream world. He tried to escape. He was afraid. He was fearful. There was no way to fend off such great power. He could not even comprehend what it was exactly. The other wizards did likewise, while the ordinary people were still unable to move. A wizard’s mind power surpassed that of ordinary people, it could not be compared.
“Run, Run!”
“Leave this place quickly. As long as we are alive, we have a chance. We have our teacher and classmates.”
“That’s right. Leave this place. Next time, next time we will be able to…”
Everyone fled in a panic and shared comforting words to calm themselves. Kelly looked coldly at the members of the Wizard Alliance as she started to rise up above the city wall. Suddenly, the space behind her became hazy and illusory, and a number of golden chains constantly extended from her back.
“Chain of god!”
Following Kelly’s cold voice, the chains passed through the sky and chained everyone up, including Leves. Leves had wanted to use his witchcraft, but he realized that not only was he unable to do this, but his mind power was being confined. The chain had sealed his mind power. He had wanted to control and destroy all the Owl Knights. He also wanted to release the plague incantation on the entire St. Sarl City, even though it would mean that he would perish with them, but he could not do anything.
“What has happened? Is this the power of the artifact?”
“Let go of me, let go of me!”
“Oh no! We are going to die. What should we do?”
“The badge. There is a guide on the teleport matrix that our teacher left behind in the badge. We can use it to leave this place!”
“Our mind power has been sealed. It’s impossible. We cannot activate it. We are going to die!”
All those within the radius of a few miles were now chained up and started to rise up to the sky. The Saintess had transformed into a white ray, her body becoming invisible. One wizard after another started to cry out before dying on the spot. They cried and wailed, but they could not change their fates.
The Saintess came before Leves, the white ray engulfing her body. Leves was bound by the golden chain, causing him to hang helplessly in the air. He was like a prisoner of god, the goddess now looked at him.
“Hahaha, is it my turn?”
“Kill me, kill me!”
Leves shivered in fear. He tried to act brave, but he was frightened. As the Saintess clenched her fist gently, the golden chain entered Leves’ body. He had no control of his body, leaving him unable to release any witchcraft. He was bruised all over and was at the mercy of the Saintess.
There was a stationed legion at the city wall, and the Knights of Light were watching from afar. They stared at Saintess Kelly who looked like a goddess. Many of them knelt down atop the city wall. No one had expected Saintess Kelly to use Faross’ mask to control such a great power. This was no ordinary power. It belonged to the realm of god.
The Saintess withdrew the realm of god and saw that the dream element had retreated and returned to her. It had gathered together to form a mask with the print of a sun. She put it gently on her face and lifted Leves, who had been immobilized. They landed on top of the city wall, and the entire stationed legion knelt down on the floor. They paid obeisance to the Saintess, treating her like a god.
“Get the soldiers to kill the rest of the Owl Knights, and send these demons to hell.”
Without the control of Leves and the Wizard Alliance, and the help of witchcraft, more than half of the Owl Knights had been killed by the Saintess. Although they continued to fight fearlessly, they ended up being killed in St. Sarl City. The elites of Light Clan, the Knights of Light, also suffered great losses. After this battle, they would require a long while to recuperate.
The Wizard Alliance and Leves’ rebel army had been destroyed. The Owl Knights that had created chaos among mankind had come to an end. The following morning, the red cardinal bishops rushed back from their different countries. Upon their arrivals, they saw that St. Sarl City was in order, and that the Wizard Alliance and Owl Knights had been destroyed by Saintess Kelly. They also heard the news that the leader of the Alliance, Leves, had been captured by the Saintess.
