It was perfect.
After Andariel realized her smash did not do much to the captain, she continued to hold it down and began to attack it with her other hand. The spirit guardian knight captain tried to block with its shield, but could not withstand her force.
Abel followed up with a strike with his Jade Tan Do, but no matter how many times he tried, Andariel could always avoid him with a gentle twist, all while attacking the spirit guardian knight captain. Abel almost wanted to facepalm himself.
Flashes of purple light kept emerging from the spirit guardian knight captain’s body. This light helped him recover every time it’s health points began to drop.
Abel was angry that Andariel kept dodging him. He did not expect such an ability, but soon, his gaze was drawn to her hand, which grabbed the spirit guardian knight captain.
A ‘shield attack’ was a half magic attack. Although it used combat qi to ignite the magic pattern, it followed the law of magic. It could unleash its vertigo effect as long as it touched any part of the opponent’s body.
Therefore, Abel viciously dashed towards Andariel’s hand with a combat qi pattern flashing in front of his Pelta Lunata. Andariel wanted to dodge, but the spirit guardian knight grabbed her. All of a sudden, the shield strike landed on her hand.
Although it didn’t give her much physical damage, she was knocked unconscious for 2.4 seconds.
Since Abel damaged the glowing crack, she could no longer break out from this vertigo.
Abel had been waiting for this chance all this time. He ignited a string of dark gold combat qi on the Jade Tan Do and unleashed his only bit of dimension force from his soul.
It took him 1 whole second until this dimension force was guided into his dark gold combat qi. Afterward, he plunged it straight towards Andariel’s neck.
Golden blood gushed out, drenching Abel. The dimension force lurking within the dark gold combat qi quickly tore apart Andariel flash on her neck until it reached her spine. Afterward, her head blasted out and landed 5 meters away.
Most beings would be dead the moment their head was blasted away, but not Andariel. She remained motionless as her body dragged the spirit guardian knight captain towards her severed head.
“Stop her!” Abel yelled as he jumped down from Black Wind. He unleashed another shield strike on Andariel’s head and ruthlessly plunged down with his Jade Tan Do.
By this point, the last 3 spirit guardian knights had flashed next to Andariel’s body and held it down to the ground alongside the spirit guardian knight captain.
Maybe it was because she no longer had her head, but she could no longer dodge as swiftly as before. She was in a deadlock with the 4 spirit guardian knights.
However, this doesn’t mean Andariel gave up. The 4 scorpion tails on her back began to spit out glowing green balls. Those balls exploded and surrounded her back with green poison gas.
Abel’s druid soul had always been tracking the health points of the spirit guardian knights, and he soon realized the poison gas quickly was draining the life out of them.
His druid soul kept injecting Full Recovery Potions on to the 4 spirit guardian knights while refilling those Full Recovery Potions on his snake ego belt from his Kong Kong Spirit Portal bag.
If he didn’t have this many Full Recovery Potions, the 4 spirit guardian knights, including the most powerful spirit guardian knight captain would die a few time’s already.
Still, all Abel could do was just keep stabbing her.
It was not that Abel didn’t want to use magic. His most powerful spell attack was the ‘Fireball’, but he couldn’t unleash one without his Leaf magic staff.
Other spell attacks were nowhere as powerful as his fire enchanted Jade Tan Do, and he didn’t have time to swap it out anyway.
Andariel’s body was just 5 meters from her head, and Abel was constantly being attacked by poison. Luckily, he had become very poison resistant thanks to his Jade Tan Do, so his life was dropping very slow.
Andariel, under Abel’s shield, was slowly accepting her fate. The eyes in her blood-drenched face began to turn white as her life force slowly faded. However, at the same time, the crack between Andariel’s eyes began to recover.
Since Abel thought everything was under the control of his shield, he did not realize this. He had almost become a robot, repeating shield strikes from his left, and a stabbing from his right.
Suddenly, a crystal glow emerged from the crack between Andariel’s eyes, and she came back to consciousness immediately.
“Back!” Although Andariel’s voice had become muffled through the wounds on her face, it did not affect the power of this word.
Abel felt the entire world began to drag him back. He was blast backward and kept stepping back. He could not stop this force no matter how hard he tried.
Abel realized the power of these words. Since their effects were different, they should have already corresponded with a particular force before the word was spoken.
Just like this word ‘back’. It should have been released before Andariel had spoken the word, but the force shouldn’t be too draining. That’s why Abel couldn’t react in time.
That was, compared to the word ‘die’, it didn’t need to summon large amounts of energy. That was why it gave Abel enough time to react as Andariel was saying the word.
Abel thought this effect would only last for a while, but he kept dropping back. By this point, Andariel’s head was already flying straight back at her body, which was being held down by the 4 spirit guardian knights.
“No, this will make all our effort useless!” Abel knew as soon as her head had returned to her body, she could unleash the dimension force again.
Just when Abel was growing desperate, an immortal raven speeded out in mid-air and viciously pecked down the dried up eye on Andariel’s skull.
Although Andariel’s eyes were basically useless by that point, the immortal raven’s peck was not a normal attack. As one of the Druid’s first summons, its attack was nothing compared to the poison creeper.
However, it’s upside was that it could blind its enemy. This blindness was like the law of nature. It did not only apply to physical sight–it was a state.
