Your support means the world. Let's embark on these adventures together!

At the entrance, Hawthorne rushed into the lumber yard and saw the two statues standing upright, his heart suddenly trembling slightly.

This guy Die actually had a backup plan.

This is a bit troublesome...

If humans accept the souls of these statues, they would go insane due to the jumbled and chaotic magical energy.

Then, witches, who are made up of chaotic magical power and are inherently inclined toward evil, cruelty, and madness, accepting this magical power would be like a person madly devouring thick, cooked beef. They might feel a bit greasy and stuffed, but they would definitely recover their strength!

Hawthorne drew a sharp breath but didn't panic. He quickly ordered, "Yuta, go around the front and deal with those statues first. Heidi, use your black tentacles to bind Die; make sure to control her for even a moment!"

As he said this, he took a deep breath and tiptoed forward, secretly relieved that the effect of "Longstrider" was still active: "We have to cooperate well to create an opportunity to purify her bit by bit!"

"Understood!" Yuta responded and then suddenly pushed off the ground, her body accelerating to top speed as she took a small arc around Die's body, heading straight for the two tall wooden statues in the back!

Previously, while moving with her massive and bulky form, Yuta had been able to reach a terrifying speed, nearly causing Hawthorne, who was enhanced by "Longstrider," to run out of breath chasing her.

Now, in human form, while she lacked some large-scale destructive capabilities, her speed had improved even further!

"You—!"

Seeing that Yuta was heading straight for her vital spot, Die's anger was evident. The flagella on her body thrashed as a series of noises erupted from her mouth: "Slow—"

Slow Spell, a third-circle spell. Although it was not high-level, it was very effective: it could instantly reduce a person's movement speed to a quarter of its original rate!

In contrast, the corresponding third-circle spell "Haste" could quadruple a person's speed, making it the preferred buff for physical occupations.

"Block her!"

Die's mouth continued to issue commands, and those cultists, who were nearly fainting from the disgust caused by the Stinking Cloud Technique, could only tremble and raise their hands, attempting to recite spells to attack Yuta—

But they couldn't produce any words and immediately bent over, retching: "Ugh—!"

It was evident that both sides in this clash had almost entirely lost their combat effectiveness.

"Heidi, we go! Interrupt her!"

Hawthorne shouted loudly, then charged straight at Die. He naturally recognized this spell, the Slow Spell, along with the corresponding Haste Spell; both were among the most famous debuff and buff spells at the third-circle level.

The downside was that they both required the spellcaster to maintain focus for them to remain effective.

In other words, this spell could be interrupted!

Behind him, Heidi quickly recited her incantation, and again, the dark tentacles burst up from the ground, binding Die's massive body, rendering her unable to move!

Hawthorne then ran directly toward Die without any technique, reaching her side and pressing his hand against her: "Purification!"

Buzz—

The milky white light illuminated once more, enveloping her body in an instant!

"Ah—ugh—"

Die let out a shrill scream of pain from her mouth, and her body began to tremble again, unable to maintain the spell anymore, the effect of the Slow Spell was interrupted, and Yuta's body instantly returned to top speed!

"You will die!"

Die roared, black mist surged again from her body, dissipating those black tentacles. Then, one of the tentacles on her body suddenly elongated, wrapping straight around Hawthorne's neck!

"Shield!"

Hawthorne remained calm and quickly finished the incantation, allowing the power of the Shield to envelop him, firmly blocking the tentacle's attack!

"One, two, three…" he mentally counted the time; the Shield's duration was only six seconds. He held on, letting the white light of Purification continue to act on her surface, and just as he counted to five, he suddenly retreated—whoosh—

The tentacles thrashed about in furious ineptitude, but a single second was enough for Hawthorne to run out of their attack range. Aside from losing two points of mana, he had hardly suffered any losses during the first round of the clash.

Ahead, Die, noticeably weaker than before, swayed her flagella. When she noticed that Hawthorne had moved quite a distance away, she was about to pursue him when she realized Yuta had already circled behind the statues and was raising her hand to slice away a large portion of one!

"Get lost, you bastard!"

Instantly, a sharp roar of anger erupted from her mouth as she ignored Hawthorne and turned to cast the Slow Spell again. Then, her mouth opened wide, and a massive colorful orb, resembling a basketball, shot directly toward Yuta!

Boom—!

The colorful orb exploded in mid-air, and fortunately, even though Yuta was affected by the Slow Spell, her inherent speed allowed her to roll away, avoiding a direct hit; she only experienced minor injuries from the shockwave!

After that exchange, the three of them had hardly any losses, while Die was being consecutively surrounded and attacked, and the cultists beside her were unable to provide any help, leading to a moment of chaotic disarray!

Very good, at this rate, after another two or three rounds, once the statues are all taken down, they could collectively assault Die!

The situation in this battle was still in their favor!

As Hawthorne observed the current scenario, his nerves slightly relaxed, when suddenly a tremendous explosion resonated from the entrance of the lumber yard: Boom—!

A blinding flash of lightning emerged from that direction, accompanied by Ectar's scream: "Ah—!"

Hawthorne turned his head, his nerves instantly tensing up again, and he heard a flurry of hurried footsteps approaching from outside. Then, shadows clad in black rushed into the lumber yard, covering their mouths and noses as they ran wildly.

Who are they?

Reinforcements? Enemies?

As this thought emerged in his mind, still pondering whether there might be some misunderstanding, he then saw a flash of silver light. A tremendous sense of crisis suddenly surged within him, making him feel a chill run down his spine!

He is targeting me!

"Shield!"

In this moment of crisis, he couldn't care about anything else. He immediately raised his hand, casting Shield once more—buzz—

The magical light of Shield instantly enveloped his body. Immediately after, a small silver square hammer came crashing down upon him!

Boom—

A strong current accompanied by a terrifying noise exploded against Hawthorne's body. The tremendous repulsive force hit him all at once, causing his body to uncontrollably veer and fly backward—

"Ugh—"

Hawthorne fell to the ground, unable to suppress a muffled groan from his throat, rolling several times, his head spinning in dizziness.

Fortunately, he had already learned "Magic Energy Will" and had previously enhanced himself with two second-circle protective spells; otherwise, at that moment, he would either be unconscious or directly lose his combat ability!

However, even so, he remained dizzy for several seconds before regaining his senses.

Yet, when he regained his sight, he found himself right next to Die.
