Anna's Quick Wit
After sealing Jas and Benjamin, Irving and Aron rushed into the depths of the Angel Guild headquarters as quickly as possible.
It was unlikely that they would encounter Elder Astra and his subordinates right away. After all, Elder Astra had already taken his followers deep into the heart of the Angel Guild. Although they had not yet reached the warehouse where the knowledge fairy was kept, their current location was still a considerable distance from the exit of the headquarters.
Both Irving and Aron were extrely anxious. They were moving at full speed, but they still couldn't prevent Elder Astra from finding Anna and Vicky before they could intervene.
In a vast chamber, Elder Astra and his subordinates were confronting Anna and Vicky. Elder Astra did not imdiately launch an attack, as he was sowhat wary of the weapons in Anna and Vicky's hands.
At that mont, Anna was holding an open book. This book exuded powerful arcane energy, making it clear that it was a very potent spellbook. Anna could utilize this book to cast powerful spells during the battle.
Vicky, on the other hand, held an umbrella. When opened, this umbrella continuously disrupted the surrounding space. Any enemy that tried to approach it would automatically beco disoriented, finding themselves lost in confusion.
"Do you really think you can stop with those two weapons?" Elder Astra sneered. "My strength is far greater than you imagine! So stop wasting ti and surrender to now!"
Elder Astra chose to negotiate again, partly because he believed that launching a direct attack might lead to unforeseen complications. However, the main reason was that he wanted to buy ti. He did not wish to completely annihilate the Angel Guild just yet.
Upon hearing Astra's ultimatum, Anna scoffed. "Stop wasting your breath! I will never surrender to you! You cannot possibly defeat us with your current power!"
After saying this, Anna summoned the energy from the spellbook in her hands and unleashed a powerful spell. A barrier ford directly between Anna and Elder Astra.
The mbers of the Night Blades watched the spell unfold with worried expressions. They felt that Anna and Vicky, wielding such formidable weapons, would be a serious challenge to overco.
Elder Astra gazed expressionlessly at Anna and Vicky. "Do you really think such a pathetic spell can stop ? I will show you just how powerful I am as one of the strongest elders of the Night Blades!"
As soon as his words fell, Elder Astra summoned a powerful dark force that transford into a colossal shadow, shattering the barrier in front of him. Although the giant figure beca sowhat ethereal after breaking through the barrier, its dark energy still posed a significant threat to Anna and Vicky.
Vicky quickly opened her umbrella, causing the space around herself and Anna to descend into chaos. The massive shadow beca disoriented in the tumultuous environnt. However, this only provided temporary safety for Anna and Vicky.
Elder Astra then unleashed several more powerful dark spells. As these dark magic attacks ca at them, Anna and Vicky found themselves continually retreating. They realized that their earlier plan had indeed been sowhat overambitious. With their current strength, it was impossible for them to withstand Elder Astra's onslaught.
Just as the two were on the verge of collapsing under the pressure, Anna hurled her spellbook toward Elder Astra. As the book flew through the air, she recited a series of incantations. Driven by the spells, the spellbook unleashed all of its power at once.
A massive explosion erupted as countless spells were released simultaneously. Elder Astra was forced to halt his advance temporarily. He erected a barrier using his dark powers. This shield provided temporary protection for himself and his subordinates, but it also ant he could no longer chase after Anna and Vicky.
As the magical energy dissipated, a hint of disappointnt crossed Elder Astra's face. "It seems our enemies are not so easily eliminated after all! Let's move forward; in that last battle, we should have exhausted their rare weapons!"
Although slightly disappointed, Elder Astra remained confident that his plan would not fail. After all, he was still capable of severely damaging the Angel Guild.
In the following fifteen minutes, Anna and Vicky raced toward the deepest part of the Angel Guild headquarters. They were now very close to the innermost storage area.
When Anna and Vicky reached the door of the warehouse, Anna suddenly felt an unusually powerful force. This overwhelming power was sothing Anna had never encountered before. She turned to Vicky and said, "Don't open the warehouse door! I know there's a terrifying monster inside!"
Anna's words surprised Vicky. However, she chose to heed Anna's warning. "So what should we do now? Are we just going to wait here for the Night Blades to arrive? We can't fight them head-on anymore."
Vicky felt a heavy sense of despair. She believed that she and Anna couldn't hold out for much longer. Anna, with a serious expression, replied, "The situation hasn't beco dire just yet! As long as we can hold on, we will be able to wait for reinforcents!"
As soon as Anna finished speaking, Elder Astra's voice echoed from the shadows in the distance. "Stop holding on to unrealistic hopes. Your reinforcents will not be coming! I told you before, Aron and Irving have already been subdued by ."
Elder Astra and his subordinates slowly erged from the shadows. For Elder Astra, there was no need to rush anymore, as he had reached the deepest part of the Angel Guild headquarters.
In this situation, Anna and Vicky found themselves with no way to escape.
"How can you be so sure that you've truly subdued Irving and Aron? You're underestimating them! They won't be easily defeated by you!" Vicky shouted at Elder Astra with a firm tone.
Elder Astra smiled and replied, "Jas and Benjamin have already been turned into my puppets. As puppets, they are currently fighting against Aron and Irving. Do you really think Aron and Irving would want to eliminate those two puppets?"
Vicky and Anna were taken aback by Astra's words. Astra watched their shocked expressions with a smile as he continued, "So, stop resisting. If you surrender to , I can grant you rcy. If you cooperate and help take all the weapons and items from the Angel Guild headquarters, I might consider releasing you."
To Elder Astra, the weapons and items within the Angel Guild headquarters were plentiful. It would take the mbers of the Night Blades a considerable amount of ti to search for them. Although Astra felt he held the upper hand, he believed that wasting too much ti was not a good thing. The longer the battle continued, the more likely unexpected situations could arise.
Anna, with a hesitant expression on her face, asked, "Will you really keep your promise? How can I be sure you won't change your mind at the last minute? If you do, won't we be dood?"
Anna's words shocked both Vicky and Elder Astra. They had not anticipated that Anna was actually considering surrendering to Elder Astra.
Vicky spoke with a furious tone, "How can you think about surrendering? We haven't failed yet! We just need to hold on a little longer, and Irving and Aron will co to rescue us."
Upon hearing this, a pained expression crossed Anna's face. "I don't want to surrender to him! But we have no other options right now! Even if Irving and Aron manage to arrive, it will take them a lot of ti."
After saying this, Anna pointed to the warehouse behind her. "Behind is the warehouse where the Angel Guild's items and weapons are stored. If you enter, you can take all the precious weapons and items with you."
Anna's words pleased Elder Astra imnsely. However, he remained cautious. He sensed that Anna must be plotting sothing.
Elder Astra replied nonchalantly, "If that's the case, then please open the door to the warehouse. If necessary, I would like you to bring the treasures out. My subordinates and I will not need to enter the warehouse."
Upon hearing this, Anna smiled. "If you believe this is the best way, then I will, of course, do as you wish."
After saying this, Anna quickly walked toward the warehouse. The mont Anna's hand touched the door, Vicky instinctively took a step back. Elder Astra sensed that sothing was off in that instant.
He shouted, "Damn it! Stop right now!"
Almost simultaneously, Elder Astra unleashed a powerful dark spell. However, his actions were already too late. Anna was not deterred by Astra's command; she used all her strength to push the warehouse door open.
As the door swung wide, a trendous surge of chaotic energy erupted from the warehouse. The overwhelming force of this chaos struck Elder Astra, all of the Night Blades' mbers, as well as Vicky and Anna, all at once, leaving them severely injured.
