26th floor, corridor.
Zhu Wen held the Spear of the Dead Thorn in her hand as she coldly looked at the countless puppets that were attacking her. Although she did not know martial arts and was not very good at using weapons, she was still far more agile than these stiff puppets!
"Drink, drink, drink." Zhu Wen quickly brandished the magic spear in her hand to block the knight spears that were stabbing at her from all directions, and continuously counterattacked. With the sharpness and priority of the magic spear in her hand, she could always easily cut through the weapons and armor that were only produced at the last minute.
Clang, clang, clang. The world in Zhu Wen's eyes had changed greatly. It was no longer a purely colorful world, but a red world that only vampires had. Her dynamic vision had been greatly improved at this time, which was why she could block the spears that were stabbing at her. In addition to her original foresight, she could clearly see the attacks that would kill her at the moment of life and death.
Oreos was dumbstruck as he watched the young girl brandishing her magic spear and destroying several puppets. Although these puppets had been cut down due to an emergency, their basic configuration and runes were no different from his. Not to mention that each puppet could deal with a newly advanced ordinary knight (2nd Rank Gene Seal). He had already seen many spears that were about to pierce the young girl's body unexpectedly brush past them.
Dodging it once could be considered luck, dodging it twice could be considered skill, but what was going on with dodging that fatal stab time and time again? Was it super-intuition or superb martial arts? Olios, who was not a martial artist himself, had no idea that it was he who had given the order to surround and attack. However, due to the narrow passageway, only two of these large puppets could pass through at a time, which provided Zhu Wen with such an opportunity. If she was in an open terrain, the puppets that had formed an encirclement formation could instantly kill the girl as long as they launched a group attack.
It could be said that it was precisely because of the repeated death warnings that were enough to activate the girl's psionic eyes, coupled with the fact that the stab was not fatal, that allowed the girl to unleash a counterattack that exceeded her own strength. The red magic spear was also able to pull the girl out of death at the most critical moment.
Aurios gritted his teeth as he looked at his continuously decreasing puppets. As a pure alchemist of the Zürich School, he didn't know any battle magic or supplementary magic, but he would be a piece of cake if he were to catch up. His combat power wasn't even comparable to a street thug, and he could only toy with people with his superhuman knowledge and mind.
However, the current situation had already turned into an extreme battle of attrition. Whether Zhu Wen's stamina was exhausted first or Oreos 'puppets were destroyed first had already become the key to victory in this battle.
It wasn't as if he had nothing to do. At the very least, he had sent orders to the dozen puppets on each floor to rush over. As long as there were enough puppets, he wasn't afraid that he wouldn't be able to exhaust the girl's stamina.
As for why Aurios did not want to use the heaven-defying magic puppet, Teleportation, it was because every Teleportation consumed his own mana. As an Alchemist, his mana was not outstanding. It was only comparable to an intermediate Battle Magician.
The power of these puppets was provided by the spirit veins drawn from the magic formation he had built. If he used Teleportation to control the puppets, he would probably drain his mana after a few tries. At that time, he wouldn't even have the mana to send commands.
A scar suddenly appeared on the girl's face. Although the scar was quickly healed by the girl's half-vampire bloodline, this detail was caught by Olios.
Attacks that hurt the body but did not kill the enemy could not be dodged, but the enemy could easily dodge and counterattack when the attack was fatal. Could this be the legendary death prediction? In other words, this girl's martial arts skills were not heaven-defying, but she had such a unique talent? Aureos pondered.
In order to confirm this conjecture, Olios changed the puppet's attack method. The new instruction that Olios gave to the puppet was to injure but not die. This new instruction soon showed its effects.
" Hiss, hiss!" Zhu Wen looked at the spear that had cut her clothes in shock. The enemy's strategy had changed. Originally, she could see the death notice every few seconds and calmly face the enemy's attacks, but now she could not see it at all. Instead, she was covered in wounds that were not fatal.
Had he been seen through? Zhu Wen struggled to block the attacks of the two puppets in front of her as she couldn't help but think.
It was true that the wounds on her body could heal quickly, but the price she paid was to quickly consume her stamina. Once she was out of stamina, how could she fight the other party?
"As expected, young lady. You are indeed the Moon Witch who defeated the Vampire Duke. You have such powerful talent. But it was a pity. If you didn't specialize in magic but martial arts, you would probably be one of the few experts in the world who could compare to a 'saint'!”Olios sneered.
Zhu Wen couldn't help but complain in her heart. Come on, the time I spent fighting and learning Mystical Knowledge is not even a fraction of yours. If I had the time to learn martial arts, I would rather learn spells with more destructive power and variations!
"Such a genius is about to die in my hands. I really feel sorry for him. However, I'm very curious. According to the information, you're good at archery, right? Why did you choose to fight me with a spear? Could it be that he wanted to buy more time to hold on until reinforcements arrived? "Give up, there are countless traps and puppets on every floor. They're enough to stop your reinforcements until I finish you off.”Olios chattered on.
Zhu Wen fiercely swept the magic spear out, knocking down several puppets behind her, creating chaos.
"So annoying. There's so much nonsense. Why don't you eat my spear first?”Zhu Wen frantically infused the power of Yin that she had prepared into the magic spear in her hand, causing the air to distort.
"This is?" Oreos 'eyes widened as he looked at the red magic spear in Zhu Wen's hand that was emitting a powerful energy that distorted the surrounding air. He had been paying attention to her technique and body earlier and had neglected the weapon in her hand. Only now did he realize that something was wrong.
What was that spear? It wasn't a spiritual equipment, nor was it a magic weapon unique to the East. The power of faith that was emitted from it could only be found in the Spear of Longinus in the Vatican. This spear wasn't an ordinary weapon at all. It was a characteristic that only the weapons of legendary heroes could possess. It was a precious artifact.
After discovering the truth behind the other party's weapon, Oreos was terrified. In the legends, precious artifacts possessed destructive power that surpassed human imagination. Killing someone with a single strike was a small matter. It was extremely possible to destroy an army or even a city with a single strike and shake the laws of the world.
Sensing the aura of death, Olios did not hesitate to use a large amount of magic power to teleport, stacking dozens of puppets in front of him layer by layer as a shield.
Olios himself knew that if he used Blink to escape, he could completely dodge this attack. However, Zhu Wen would definitely rely on the destructive power of the attack to instantly open a hole in his barrier and escape. If that was the case, it would be very difficult for him to have a chance.
The moment the steel shield was formed, Zhu Wen had finished charging up, running up into the air and throwing the magic spear in her hand.

The magic spears instantly turned into a rain of red spears that pierced through the puppets. After nailing them to the ground, Zhu Wen suddenly laughed.
Fantasy breakdown
Just as he thought he was safe and was about to mock his opponent for not being able to attack him, he suddenly realized that the crimson magic spears had shattered into pieces and exploded with a terrifying amount of energy.
Boom! A series of loud explosions resounded throughout the hotel. The hotel even started shaking violently as if there was an earthquake.
"Is it finally over?" Zhu Wen fell to the ground weakly. She looked at the smoke-filled corridor with a dazed gaze, but she knew that there would be no one there. How could there be anyone in a place that had already been penetrated?

As soon as the five of them arrived, they heard a huge explosion and encountered the aftermath of an earthquake.
"What is that sound? And this huge tremor?" The middle-aged man held onto the handrail of the stairs to stabilize his body and asked in disbelief.
"I don't know. It's probably the aftermath of the battle between the witch and the alchemist!”Crane of Qingshan said uncertainly.
"Nani? This destructive power had already reached the level of a 'saint'! Don't tell me that the witch up there is a 'saint', then what are we doing here! Kukukuku!" Quan Zifang asked the Earth Defense Sect and Tian Yi in surprise.
"No, this is caused by Master's unique spell. However, even Master can only use this level of destructive power once. My Lord will definitely not easily use this move. After this move ends, my Lord will lose his strength.”Solesky said worriedly.
"No, we can't make it in time. Solesky, did you encounter any traps when you came out?”The Earth Defense Sect finally realized that something was wrong because many of the traps he had destroyed were targeted at spirit bodies. Tian Yi should not have come out unscathed!
"Oh right, the elevator. I can fly down the broken elevator because I'm a spirit body. There are no magic traps in the elevator. Can you climb up the elevator? This might be the nearest passage!" Tian Yi suddenly shouted.
"Solesky, take Crane and This Place to the elevator. I'll take the captain and charge up the stairs. You girls are petite and agile.”Earth Defensive Gate pushed the sunglasses on his nose and said indifferently.
"Understood. Let's set off!”
"Yiya, I don't want to climb the rope!”
Tsuruko Aoyama pulled the reluctant Izumi and ran towards the elevator.
"May your martial arts luck prosper.”Tian Yi bowed to Earth Imperial Sect and the middle-aged man before flying towards Crane.
"Oh, Captain, let's get started!”Earth Defense Sect smiled.
"Sigh, Uncle, I have a hard life. Let's go, kid!”

25th floor elevator passageway
" This is…Big Sister's illusion is collapsing. It should be around here.”Yinkong's eyes narrowed as she felt the huge tremors and explosions.
"Ha!" Yinkong grabbed onto the elevator's stairs and slowly used her Deathfire Tooth to pry open the elevator door and climb out.
"What is going on?" Yinkong gaped at the half-blown barrier. She could even see the rapidly mending barrier outside and the hole in the night view of the capital.
Yinkong was an assassin after all, so her mental fortitude was strong. She quickly came back to her senses and started searching for Zhu Wen.
