The Evil God Summoned by the Saintess

Chapter 491 - 489: The Array Was Destroyed? Nothing to Do with Hilia

When using power from the Abyss, one’s sanity will erode.

The longer the usage, the deeper the erosion, and sanity will gradually be lost.

Loss of sanity means attacks become increasingly frenzied, but... without order.

Like a runaway mud truck, its power incredible, but easy to dodge.

The Dragon Rider Captain’s desire to attack gradually increased, with escalating magic intensity, yet Hilia and Encore became more adept in responding.

"Here is the home turf of Dragon Island, although he is an apostate, he is still part of the Dragon Rider Corps, we certainly can’t kill him. The best way is to drag it out, let him completely lose his sanity."

Hilia squinted at the crazed Dragon Rider Captain, "The rest, it doesn’t concern us!"

A crazed apostate wouldn’t differentiate between friend or foe, only between polluted or unpolluted.

They will attack all life seen, releasing demonic qi pollution, contaminating everything with demonic qi.

As the pollution influence deepens, power from the Abyss gradually replaces the original strength, making them stronger.

However, Purification Skill can counteract the pollution.

As the pollution influence deepens, the purification skill released by Hilia’s magic puppet increasingly weakens the Dragon Rider Captain.

In other words, the stronger the Dragon Rider Captain, the weaker the Dragon Rider Captain.

Until—

Boom!

Sword qi with gray mist magic light blasted on the wall’s array, stirring up waves of vibrations.

Hilia led him to the wall’s edge, enticing him to attack the wall and the array.

"This wall array is not very strong, under full attack by a Tier Four Mage, it won’t take long to break, let the people of Dragon Island break the array, let’s see what Dragon Island says."

Hilia thought.

She didn’t know if the sudden price increase for the ride was deliberately done by the apostate or officially authorized by the Blue Dragon Empire.

But facing her, it’s all the same.

It’s the Dragon Rider Corps troubling everyone.

Charging money is actually fine, after all, the Dragon Island Volcano belongs to them; entering to collect resources surely requires some price.

But if this price is higher than directly purchasing, then that’s extortion.

Not wanting to pay gold coins and having your belongings seized is outright robbery.

If it’s the apostate’s actions, to incite conflict using the poison on the volcano, recreating scenes from a century ago, then it’s Dragon Island’s problem with the Tower of Descent later, not Hilia’s concern.

If Dragon Island tacitly agrees to this, it’s even less Hilia’s concern.

Hilia didn’t massacre the Dragon Riders nor attacked Dragon Island, instead, she helped expose apostate spies, the array was destroyed by the apostate.

If those inside take the chance to flee, it’s the apostate who opened it, let them talk with the Tower of Descent!

Unless everyone in Dragon Island is from the Tower of Descent top to bottom, Hilia wouldn’t know how to lose.

Now, it’s a consensus across the continent to encircle apostates, and what the Tower of Descent does resembles what the former Deep Sea Mutual Aid Association and Polar Blood Alliance did, causing trouble within the people’s capital.

What? Apostates are causing trouble in your home and you remain indifferent, while wanting to hinder the righteous mages?

The imperial coalition is coming soon, eager to help you solve the dilemma!

Hilia wildly set flags in her heart.

Boom boom boom—!

Sword qi bombarded the array on the wall, the array’s ripples rapidly spread, gradually extending afar.

With the loss of sanity, the Dragon Rider Captain lost judgment, the only thing binding his desire to attack is the obsession to kill Hilia.

Kill kill kill!

Hilia hopped left and right by the wall, dodging the orderless sword qi attacks.

The magic puppet occasionally approached, and then she dashed to another section of the wall.

The array combined the walls as one. Before shattering the array, the wall remained indestructible.

The array wasn’t whole, with several nodes to prevent sudden attacks breaching the array’s limit, causing the array to entirely break.

The main function of this array wasn’t to block entry and exit collecting protection fees but to stop volcanic ash, preventing the volcano’s eruption from damaging Dragon Island.

With the booming of sword qi, blades with pollution struck the array, the array’s ripples gradually spread wide, beginning to flicker.

With the Dragon Rider Captain’s complete frenzy, finally, accompanied by a sound like shattering glass, the array here couldn’t withstand the attack anymore, cracked open with a bang, revealing a huge gap.

Undiminished sword qi fiercely struck the wall, directly breaking a section to pieces.

Hilia smiled slightly and turned, running to another node.

Behind was the Dragon Rider Captain and magic puppet rushing over.

At this moment, everyone was stunned.

"The wall is broken, everyone run!"

Someone shouted, snapping everyone from their daze, immediately noticing an escape opportunity, each employing their escape methods, streaming out through the gap in the wall and array.

The Dragon Rider Guards could only protect the gate, lacking personnel to stop a whole section’s gap, eventually only intercepting a few unlucky ones, the rest could only helplessly watch them leave.

The call to run was from Encore.

She adjusted her glasses, seeing Hilia alone capable of playing with the mindless Tier Four apostate, thought and decided to follow, to help Hilia resist sudden developments.

"The situation here shouldn’t escape Dragon Rider Corps and Dragon Island’s notice, they should take action."

Compared to low-tier mages picking some stuff inside the Dragon Island Volcano, the damage from a broken array was bigger.

If they sit idly by, volcanic ash covering the sky, leaving the earth extremely dark, only illuminated by volcanic magma and array’s light will teach Dragon Island a lesson.

Indeed, just as Encore arrived, the ground suddenly rose a multitude of vines, intending to trap Hilia and the Dragon Rider Captain.

Hilia seemed to know beforehand, suddenly accelerated, breaking free from the vine area aided by Swift Movement Skill and Light Body Technique, leaving only the Dragon Rider Captain and magic puppet caught.

The Dragon Rider Captain and magic puppet swung their longswords, the ice element enchantment completely gone, became Dark Qi Pollution Enchantment, pure darkness, slicing the vines in half.

Yet more vines emerged, firmly restraining him and the magic puppet.

A voice came, "Oh? You can actually spot my magic? Interesting."

Encore looked up, saw a mage wielding a magic staff descending from the sky, slowly landing.

He didn’t look at the Dragon Rider Captain and magic puppet fighting the vines, but instead showed interest in studying Hilia.

"This doesn’t seem like your original self, such a strong disguise skill, your identity intrigues me."

After a pause, he continued, "Almost forgot to introduce myself, I am Erina’s pupil, Taros, Captain of the Dragon Rider Corps’ third regiment."

Hilia performed an Ista gesture, "Greetings, Lord Taros. I am Hilia, a regular Divine Magic Academy student, currently traveling Dragon Island, glad to converse with you."

Hmm? Hilia?
