Who Designed This Underworld Dungeon?-Chapter 1244 - 797: Battle in the Sea of Fire

[Holy Light Piercing Heart Sword]!

[Holy Light Burial Hand Blade]!

A massive magic array formed instantly in front of Anleisi, with a gigantic sword blade, as large as a Ship-Slicing Sword, piercing straight toward the Chaos Witch's body.

Kaius transformed his palm into a blade, his entire hand covered in scorching Holy Light, possessing both the magical attack that burns the soul and the physical damage of cutting through steel, slashing toward the Chaos Witch from the side as well.

Wait, didn't we agree I would defend while you attack?

The Chaos Witch's attention was immediately drawn to Kaius when that phrase was shouted. With a swing of the magical sword in her hand, a wave of blazing flames erupted. The expanding range of the fire allowed her to attack her enemies even from a great distance.

Of course, Kaius dodged quickly, but the flames seemed to have eyes, pursuing him even after he successfully avoided them. At this very moment, the second wave from the magic sword was unleashed, and the new fiery assault closed in from front and back, leaving no safe ground from the raging flames!

In this perilous situation, where not dodging quickly would result in being reduced to ashes, Kaius had "no choice" but to abandon the charged hand blade, which would slow him down, and evade the flames, only managing to escape at the minor cost of having his cloak singed.

He found himself unable to fight effectively, not only because these flames of unknown nature might lead to unexpected consequences if contacted, but also because being blindfolded indeed obstructed his ability to combat.

Even if he used Fighting Qi Perception to detect the Chaos Witch's moves, he would still be affected by [Enchanting Undead], as the Fighting Qi Perception would craft in his mind the alluring image of the Chaos Witch's slender upper body!

Kaius realized that blindfolding himself merely reduced the effect of [Enchanting Undead] from a hard control to an interference...

He wished he were a woman, as that would minimize the interference effect...

It seemed their attack had failed, yet both sides overlooked Anleisi.

The Holy Light Piercing Heart Sword had already surged instantly to the Chaos Witch's front!

The Chaos Witch swiftly turned and drew her sword to counterattack, while the giant spider beneath her reacted just as quickly, spewing a mouthful of scarlet flames.

The sword blade, condensed from Holy Light, shattered in an instant, yet the fragments transformed into small blades, sweeping over the Chaos Witch like a storm.

These fragments were vulnerable to the intense flames, but some managed to escape the fire's burn, successfully wounding the enemy.

The Chaos Witch's body was covered in various cuts, but instead of bleeding, bright fluid that resembled magma appeared.

The too-small wounds even healed instantly upon appearing, not even counted as damage.

"The power is a bit lacking, though I was quite confident."

Anleisi immediately flashed away, as the ground where she stood turned into a searing purgatory from the oncoming flames.

The phrase "you attack, I defend" was a deliberate provocation, resulting in the Chaos Witch failing to attack her, the "defending" unit, and instead focusing on attack-oriented Kaius.

What did this imply? It indicated that the Chaos Witch could understand what they were saying and might even be able to speak herself, just perhaps choosing not to talk to adventurers.

However, she indeed had no need to converse with her enemies, after all, and Anleisi quite liked the tough, silent type, as they carried a more mysterious and intimidating aura.

The brief skirmish had already revealed plenty.

Such as, when battling the Chaos Witch, one must be wary of the flames, including the all-spreading sea of fire, the giant spider's fire breath, and the flames from the witch's longsword.

The opponent's flames had high-temperature characteristics, and attempts showed that conventional Fireproof Magic was nearly ineffective against such flames. The most crucial point was...

"Why does it feel somewhat similar to the sorcery used by Hevi and the others?" 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

These flames seemed like they were conjured through sorcery, couldn't this be a coincidence?

No, how could it be a coincidence; this must be sorcery!

Given that Sick Village is filled with bizarre monsters capable of wielding fire, and not far from the leader's cave was a Magic Tutor, it was clear that the entire area was closely linked to sorcery.

So it stands to reason that the Chaos Witch, as the leader, could wield sorcery, doesn't it!

Sorcery-generated flames differ from ordinary flames, so it's only natural that common flame protections prove ineffective.

It feels akin to the Holy Light Knight's Thunder Spear, where apparently having a certain attribute doesn't translate into effective protection when targeting that attribute with protective magic.

Thinking about someone she disliked, Anleisi's expression turned sour, and she looked toward Kaius on the other side, exchanging a glance.

In a blink, the two were already in action.

"I'll cover you on the left, you attack her backside!"

As soon as she uttered these words, the Chaos Witch naturally spun around to attack behind her, only for Kaius to suddenly appear from the opposite direction, unleashing three Slashing attacks simultaneously on one side of the giant spider!

Astoundingly sturdy, the Chaos Witch barely budged under attack, and the giant spider merely spurted some magma-like blood before immediately retaliating with its limbs.

"Watch your back; I'm unleashing a Big Move!"

"This time, you shield me while I go on the offensive!"
