Chapter 3734 True Abilities
From the corner of her eyes, Gloria noticed that aside from Santino, who was observing the fight, everyone else was engaged in a tough battle, especially those ordinary Paladins from Void Sect, as they had already been completely subdued.
Only Grant had a slight edge over Cyrus in their duel, but the insignificant advantage gradually became non-existent as the battle wore on.
No wonder Bluesky Sect and Master Thundera suffered a loss and fled. I did not expect these people to be so strong. How did they accomplish this? I think they must have acquired this significant improvement recently. Otherwise, all of them would not have stayed hidden inside the base and been on the defense in this war.
Gloria was utterly bewildered.
“How dare you become distracted at a time like this?”
A cold voice sounded behind Gloria, pulling her back to her senses.
Reacting instinctively to danger, she immediately activated a technique and dodged sideways, leaving only an afterimage of where she stood a split second ago.
Boom!
The stone she stood on previously was smashed into dust the next moment.
“You’re certainly quick to avoid my attack!”
Without allowing Gloria to catch her breath, Levi continued attacking her.
He thrust out three strikes successively, and the powerful impact spread to the whole area of the battlefield, causing Gloria to have no place to hide.
Having no other choice, she could only unleash her spiritual energy to resist Levi’s attack.
However, in the face of his overwhelming power, Gloria sensed she was at her limits.
“Help me, Santino!”
After she barely held out against Levi’s three consecutive hits, she finally pleaded with Santino for his assistance.
Following her cry, Santino suddenly showed up beside Gloria. He had been observing the battle the whole time and was shocked to learn about Levi’s formidable strength.
Similarly, Gloria’s capabilities had also surprised him because the combat prowess she demonstrated moments before she requested his help was already very close to his level. Even if there was a skill difference between the two, that gap was negligible.
It seems like Gloria saved her strength when I tested her previously.
Despite harboring that thought, Santino had also kept his final move unrevealed. Therefore, he still had the absolute confidence to maintain control of the entire situation in spite of his slight astonishment.
“Master is still capable of suppressing Gloria even when he’s poisoned?”
“You’re indeed powerful, Boss!”
“Master Garrison is amazing, but I’m afraid it will be very dangerous for him to take on Santino and Gloria at the same time!”
The initial excitement of those members who were in the dark gradually turned into apprehension and worry.
After all, their side was gaining the upper hand in all the other ongoing fights on the battlefield.
Even Cyrus, who was at a slight disadvantage, in the beginning, was starting to fight on equal ground with his opponent as the fight dragged on.
Hence, Levi’s was the only fight that could genuinely affect the tide of the battle.
If Levi lost, all the other wins accumulated by the other members of the base would be instantly nullified.
Everyone was incredibly nervous because they were under the assumption that Levi had been poisoned.
Gloria said, “It seems like you used some special technique to manipulate the spread of Divine Perish.”
But you’ve forgotten that Divine Perish will spread to every part of your body once you use a technique to release your spiritual energy. Soon, when the poison reaches your heart, even the advent of the Gods could not save you.”
“Is that so? How are you so certain that I’m poisoned?” Levi questioned Gloria while smiling.
She was slightly taken aback. The next second, her pupils constricted as she gazed at him in horror.
“Don’t tell me this is all part of your plan?”
A hint of fear rose within Gloria.
At that moment, Santino sneered, “Levi, so what if you are not affected by the poison? Do you think you can survive today in a fight against the combined force of Lord Gloria and me?”
Levi uttered, “Is that so? In that case, I shall let you see my true abilities.”
