The Subus''s wounds on her skin rapidly writhed, nearly healing the bone-deep gashes in an instant. However, a bright sh of Holy Fire Technique immediately enveloped her, eliciting another infuriated, anguished scream.
Desperate, she attempted to charge forward to take out the Priest first. A light wing would render him incapable of casting Divine Arts ever again, or she could use her once-a-day ability to dominance over humanoids, making the priest truly believe she was his best friend.
Yet that sword-wielding Subus instantly closed in again, blocking all her escape routes. Damn it, how could a Subus move so fast? And what''s with that bizarre armor she''s wearing?
Lancelot was quite the sight at this moment. His robe had long been torn away, revealing the exquisite armor beneath, looking every bit the part of a knightly Subus.
In stark contrast with his slender frame was the weapon in Lancelot''s hands. In his left hand was the four-foot Hand Half Sword Frostsh, while his right brandished the terrifying seven-foot Giant Sword cier. The two Two-Handed Weapons transformed into a metallic whirlwind, and its ferocious attacks left the Subus gasping for air.
The Subus had a dozen powerful spells at her disposal—any one of them could have turned the tide of the battle. But Lancelot didn''t give her the chance. She had already realized just how formidable this Subus was; a moment''s distraction in battle would let that Great Sword deprive her of herbat abilitiespletely.
Moreover, it wasn''t just the terrifying strength and swift attacks of the opponent that troubled her. The Subus had detected something off with the weapons in Lancelot''s hands. The swords contained a frosty element that diforted her, as if it could extinguish the fire of life, greatly diminishing the effectiveness of her Healing Spells.
Years ofbat experience told her she couldn''t keep fighting like this. Escape was her only option, or death would be her only conclusion today.
A brief moment was all she needed to cast a high-level Teleportation Technique and make her escape. However, the situation made it clear she would have to pay a significant price before she could leave.
With that in mind, the Subus steeled herself, her ws, and tendrils erupting with ultimate speed, trying to seize a Split-second advantage.
Lancelot knew his enemy was fighting desperately. He pushed the True Qi in his Dantian to its limit almost instantly. Coupled with Klin''s Haste Spell effect, he surprisingly kept pace with the adversary''s two ws and four tendrils.

The Subus knew the defining moment between life and death had arrived. She feigned a move, and suddenly, her tendrils shot forward aggressively, while her feet pushed against the ground, propelling her body swiftly backward.
She was resigned to the tail-breaking survival tactic of a gecko, ready to sacrifice all her tendrils being severed in exchange for time to cast her Teleportation Magic.
Lancelot nearly instantly grasped her intention. His mind focused, the cyan glow that had clung to the Giant Sword cier suddenly surged, only to fade away as if itcked further support.
But his attack was already in motion, and the Great Sword shed down fiercely.
The four tendrils were uniformly severed like sausages on a chopping board scattering in all directions, knocking over piles of Gold Coins. But the corner of the Subus''s mouth revealed a trace of joy since she hadpleted casting the high-level Teleportation Technique, and the magic was about to take effect.
It was too rash of her to have hurried over after receiving the rm. Once she returned, she would immediately summon her seven most capable subordinates and return through the Otherworldly Teleportation Technique.
Determined, she resolved to capture these audacious thieves alive and spend the next century nowhere else but in the dungeon, tormenting these Subi every minute, especially this bizarre knightly Subus. She would drain her soulpletely dry to uncover the secret behind her exceptional strength.
And that priestess, why would they be with a priestess? And that bearded Subus, what''s that about? Why hasn''t the Teleportation Magic triggered yet? Right! I still need to appease these thieves, can''t let them run away; otherwise, it''ll be a bit of trouble to catch upter!
"Goodbye, you little thieves!" the Subus bluffed, "One day, I will find you!"
But the reaction of the other party was quite peculiar as they maintained the posture of chopping down, with no withdrawal of their sword.
The Subus Knight across lifted her head, and those beautiful eyes were filled with coldness as she spoke in an indifferent voice:
"You''re already dead."
"Huh?" "What''s happening?" "What did he say?"
The cheerleaders next to them had been awestruck by Lancelot''s still posture, and at this word, they unconsciously spoke out at the same time.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
The Subus wanted to say something else, but after she finished speaking, her mouth didn''t close; her right upper lip and left lower lip were stuck together, as if they couldn''t separate.
What''s going on?
This was thest thought in the Subus''s mind.
Because of the movement while speaking, some kind of bnce seemed to have been disrupted. The Subus''s head split open like a watermelon from the top, arge amount of blood mist erupted from the cracks, like a boiling kettle. The bisected vitreous body slipped from the eye sockets but was caught by the optic nerves, swaying in mid-air like wind chimes.
The crack continued to extend downward, through her neck, chest cavity, heart, stomach, all the way to the base of her right thigh.
The Teleportation Magic didn''t trigger for some reason until now; a sh of yellow light passed by, and half of the Subus''s right side disappeared, leaving behind half of her brain, a major part of her body, and two rtively intact legs. The exposed cut surface spewed out arge amount of blood, and broken internal organs slipped from the abdomen.
The surface rapidly grew a mass of tumors and ulcers, as if some supernatural force sustaining the demon''s life was quickly dissipating.
The unbnced corpse fell on a pile of Gold Coins stained with blood; this Subus died, dying on the treasure she was meant to protect.
It''s unknown if her brain, before splitting in half, couldprehend what the Subus Knight''s words "You''re already dead" meant.
The reality was, the moment Lancelot had swung that Great Sword, she switched the True Qi that powered the Qingyun Sword Art with Innate True Qi. This not only extended the Great Sword''s Sword Aura by three feet but also caused its color to be nearly transparent from a faint cyan glow.
This was Lancelot''s final killing move. The bulkiness of the Giant Sword cier was too obvious, so he powered a singr attack with the Qingyun Sword Art using Innate True Qi, and although the Sword Aura was nearly transparent, it would still cause a slight refraction of light.
An opponent fully focused might still be able to dodge, but the Subus''s own tentacles blocked most of her view, coupled with the need to concentrate on casting spells, which allowed Lancelot to strike a killing blow on the enemy on the spot.
