Chapter 235: The Archbishop and Torres

The Demon Turtle of Destruction could only be considered a divine-grade creature. In fact, its combat strength was not strong, and its movement speed was very slow. It was carrying a city on its back, and it was caught unprepared by them. That was why they were able to kill it successfully.
However, it was very difficult to defeat an expert like the Lord of Dark, who possessed high intelligence and had experienced countless battles in a place like an abyss. He had an extremely rich battle EXP.
Fortunately, Li Xiang had already raised all of his skills to level 100.
High-rank Reflect Damage Halo had reached 100% damage reflection. It had already reached the maximum.
The same was true for the other halos like Explosive Halo, Splash Halo, and Holy Flame Halo.
As long as the attack was 100, the reflected damage would also be 100. If the explosive damage was 100, the splash damage would also be 100. The holy flame damage would be doubled to 200 to the dark creatures .
Most importantly, the damage could be stacked.
This was 500% of the damage.
At the same time, there were two characteristics of the Black Turtle Battle Armor. Within a range of 100 kilometers, the defense would be tripled, the same went for regeneration. As long as one was not killed instantly, he could lead his army and wipe out the entire world.
The humans of this world were all blond-haired and blue-eyed western humans, but they were humans after all. Naturally, they could not allow the darkness to erode them.
The population was the greatest resource. If they could bring them back to their territories, they could increase the population by at least a few million. This could greatly enrich the Kingdom of Dawn, which was vast and sparsely populated.
As the few of them stood on the mountaintop and looked at the city below, they were constantly observing.
In the city below, in a huge palace that was resplendent but eerie and terrifying, an old man wearing a golden mask and a black robe was sitting on a throne made of pure gold.
At this moment, on a metal stand not far away from him, a crystal ball was faintly emitting strands of black light.
Following that, an image appeared in the crystal ball.
In the image, a group of people with extraordinary auras on a mountain peak were looking at the city from afar.
The man in the lead seemed to be saying something as his gaze was filled with cold killing intent.
The black-robed old man’s aged fingers gently tapped on the golden armrest, and a hint of curiosity flashed across his deep and calm gaze.
“Who are these people? Where are they from? They seem to be filled with hostility towards the City of Kael’thas! Hehehe!”
After he finished speaking, he let out a low, hoarse, and extremely unpleasant laugh.
“I didn’t expect that there would be fugitives in this world. This has brought me some pleasant surprises. The sacrificial ceremony is around the corner, and now there are a few high-quality main offerings. These people all look pretty good!”
He raised his hand slightly and lightly tapped the crystal ball across space. A wisp of black light flew out and landed on the crystal ball.
“Let me see where you come from!”
Before he finished speaking, the light figure on the crystal ball began to retreat. Then, the moment when Li Xiang and the others opened the spatial door and entered this world appeared.
It was only then that the black-robed old man, who was originally relaxed and lazy, suddenly sat up straight.
“They’re actually not from this world, but from the otherworld?”
The eyes of the black-robed old man under the mask suddenly brightened, as if he had discovered a new continent. His eyes were filled with surprise and joy.
“Hehehe… Hehehe…”
A terrifying low voice filled with excitement came from the empty and deathly silent great hall.
After a long while, the voice of the old man came from the great hall.
“Men!”
“Swoosh!”
A black shadow directly condensed in the middle of the hall. It knelt on one knee and was extremely respectful.
“Archbishop!”
“Torres, lead the Black Dragon Knights to surround the Dingge mountain outside the city. Capture all those people who are hiding on the mountain top. Try to capture them alive. If you can’t, you can kill them too!”
The black-robed old man forcefully suppressed the excitement in his heart and tried his best to sound calm.
“Yes!”
Torres, who was kneeling below, was silent for a moment. A red light flickered in his eyes, and his reaction became a little slower.
The black-robed old man seemed to have sensed Torres’ change. His originally calm gaze suddenly turned cold, and an invisible aura spread out, directly landing on Torres’body.
“Torres, there’s actually a trace of your will that hasn’t been devoured by the darkness. This really surprised me. If I had known this earlier, I would have sacrificed you to my master. Perhaps I would have obtained even more power!”
The red light in Torres’eyes was still flickering with determination as if he was unwilling to have his fate controlled, and even more unwilling to be the aid of the evil. One of his hands had already landed on the battle sword at his waist.
“Clash!”
The battle sword was unsheathed by half a foot.
When the black-robed old man saw this, his eyes widened slightly. The finger on the armrest paused slightly, and he suddenly raised it and pointed at Torres.
“Swish!”
A ray of black light flashed and disappeared, instantly entering Torres’ forehead.
In an instant, the red light in Torres’ eyes intensified, and the battle sword that had just been unsheathed was pushed in.
“Clash!”
A soft sound came from the spring inside the battle sword, and the hall fell into silence once again.
“Hmph, how troublesome! Hurry up and carry out the order!”
“Yes!”
After saying that, Torres’ figure directly turned into a black light and disappeared. When he reappeared, he had already arrived at the steps outside the palace.
Without the slightest hesitation, he quickly walked in the direction of Black Dragon Knights.
At this moment, on top of the mountain peak, Eye Demon was reporting.
“Your Highness, I sensed a magical spying fluctuation coming from the city below just now. I can confirm that someone in the city has already discovered us. And based on the dark and evil aura contained within the energy fluctuations, I can conclude that the person should be the controller of this city.”
Li Xiang had also sensed some kind of spying gaze, and he could even clearly sense deep malice from that gaze.
Not to mention him, everyone on the mountain peak could clearly sense this.
This was also the first time Yang Mi had encountered such a situation. She asked, “Li Xiang, now that we’ve been exposed. What should we do?”
Li Xiang consoled, “It’s fine! Unless that Lord of Dark personally descends, otherwise we have nothing to fear even if his clone comes. If it doesn’t work, we can return to Myriad World Continent anytime and close this space-time passage. The enemies here won’t be able to chase after us.”
Hearing that, Yang Mi immediately felt much more at ease.
Zhou Yutong, who was standing on the other side, suddenly said, “Li Xiang, will the enemies below not only discover our existence, but also the space-time door behind us?”
“It’s fine. So what if they have discovered it? What is our purpose for coming here? I wasn’t too sure before this, but now I think I understand.”
Not only were Yang Mi and the others surprised by these words, but even Alice, Mia, and the others were also looking sideways.
Li Xiang took a deep breath. With a solemn expression, he said, “I can feel the sorrow and pleading from this world. It is sinking into death. I can also feel the anger and roar of countless souls who want us to avenge them and save the world.”
