Pillar of Yita

The glove was flying towards Fang Hong, but amidst the smoke and dust, a towering figure suddenly charged from the side. The Big Catfolk held a Scepter of Authority in one hand and drew a short sword from the armor on his thigh with the other.

There was a flash of sword light, and the cable behind the flying claw instantly snapped.

Reed turned again, waving his left hand, and a cold light flew from his hand towards the Alchemist.

The Alchemist dared not be careless, raising his right hand as the metal arm from Yinhanz Four descended in front of him for defense.

Sparks burst forth, and the short sword spun off into the air. But the Lion Paladin’s offensive was clearly not over — with a roar, golden wings suddenly unfurled behind him as he raised the Scepter of Authority, which burst into golden flames forming a two-handed Great Sword.

He then leapt high, wielding the sword in both hands, and jumped past five or six meters, slashing towards the Alchemy.

The Alchemist could no longer afford to think about Fang Hong, raising his hand towards the Big Catfolk while the eyes of Yinhanz Four behind him shone brightly, crossing its four arms to erect a Silverlight Shield.

The Light Shield was like a layer of flowing mercury, spreading from a central point in front of the Alchemist and enveloping him entirely moments later.

The Big Catfolk struck the shield with his sword, and the golden wings behind him disappeared piece by piece, the silverlight fluctuating as both stepped back.

In mid-air, the uncontrolled metal glove crashed against a vase with a bang, shattering it into pieces.

Seeing this spectacle, Fang Hong realized he was saved and flipped over to climb to his feet.

Looking up, he saw the scene where the Big Catfolk retreated after missing his strike, his gaze flickering as he stared at the silver shield — a tenth-circle spell, Absolute Barrier.

Pseudo Dragon Knight Constructs each have their merits.

And the instant cast ’Absolute Barrier’ along with large-scale Gravity Manipulation are precisely the reasons Yinhanz Four is commendable.

Eteliria Spells range from one to the twelfth circle, but for Magic Guided Constructs, storing and releasing a tenth-circle spell is the limit. And among these tenth-circle spells, ’Absolute Barrier’ is almost certainly one of the most renowned.

This spell comes in two states: Absolute Physical Barrier and Absolute Magical Barrier.

Once one is chosen during casting, the other cannot be selected, but the powerful effect of this choice is complete immunity to one type of damage and status.

This is a ’Isolation Spell’ in the true sense, as the rules set by Angina say, even some secondary Divine Strength effects can’t penetrate.

Fang Hong glanced around, wondering how they would break through the physical barrier without Tang De.

Xiangzi and Luo Yu certainly wouldn’t be of help.

But turning his head, he noticed the mute servant gesturing and pointing in a direction.

Fang Hong instinctively looked in that direction, his eyes glinting slightly. In the corner of the hall were four dark armors on display —

But with just a glance, they seemed to be ceremonial armor.

Ceremonial armor wouldn’t have four arms like Yinhanz Four, yet the armor he previously overlooked was a very special type of Magic Guided Construct.

Weaver —

But how could he control without a Resonance Crystal properly tuned?

Fang Hong looked at the mute servant again, who pressed one hand to his chest, gesturing with the other while shaking his head.

Without needing translation from the Big Catfolk, Fang Hong understood that the crystal inside the Magic Guided Construct was an unused Blank Crystal.

He finally realized why the Alchemist could control Yinhanz Four in the center of the hall, but the audacity of the Royal House of Penelope was truly great to place constructs with Blank Crystals on display here.

It seems after the Artisan Association gifted these constructs to Princess, the Royal Household hadn’t even unpacked them, leaving them untouched.

But Blank Crystals need magic energy injection, and the Alchemist could fill a Pseudo Dragon Knight Construct with a mere wave — what kind of ability is this?

Fang Hong found it difficult to imagine.

But he had no time to dwell on such matters.

Looking back, he saw the Big Catfolk had exchanged several rounds with the Alchemist but to no avail.

The Paladin’s attacks were more than just physical, but using Light Ether Attacks consumed significant amounts of Holy Power for the Paladins.

Marlan knights are firstly knights, then saints, and their reserve of Holy Power is limited compared to real priests.

Fang Hong saw several light pillars flash by, with the Big Catfolk dodging urgently but endangering himself by only defending.

He already heard footsteps in the adjacent room, probably coming from Invokers outside. The Alchemist observed this through ubiquitous Clockwork Fairies.

The opponent turned away, without any movement, as Yinhanz Four behind him stepped forward, raising both arms. With a loud boom, it tore a piece of flooring from the ground and hurled it with soil and rubble in that direction.

A chorus of cries erupted over there.

However, as the Alchemist shifted focus, things eased for him and the Big Catfolk.

Fang Hong knew these Outsiders couldn’t be relied upon ultimately; they might delay matters briefly, but once they reacted, they would disperse like birds and beasts.
