Chapter 446: Frustrated
However, before he could finish his words, Kong rushed forward like an arrow, so fast that people could hardly blink.
Due to the rituals that needed to be performed, the Abyss Apostles could not move freely and could only hastily replace them with several Abyss Mages to stop Kong's steps.
Those abyss mages suddenly appeared from the darkness like ghosts, surrounding Kong and emitting eerie roars, trying to interfere with his actions and drag him into the vortex of darkness.
But how could a few abyss mages stop Kong? Kong's swordsmanship was skillful and exquisite, his body was agile and graceful, and every time he swung his sword, it was fierce and powerful, like lightning, cutting through the air, making a sharp whistling sound.
His sword moves were unpredictable, sometimes attacking as fiercely as a storm, and sometimes maneuvering as skillfully as flowing water.
After a while, those abyss mages were knocked to the ground one after another, screaming in pain, and their bodies turned into black smoke and dissipated in the air.
The Abyss Apostle watched this scene, feeling extremely frustrated. He cursed in his heart: "Anyone can come, why does it have to be him? He has to think twice before he can do anything, he doesn't dare to do anything casually. If he gets hurt, he will definitely be in big trouble when he returns."
Therefore, facing Kong's attack, he could only choose to dodge helplessly, and then summoned out a few Hillbillies and Abyss Mages.
He dodged left and right, his figure floating in the darkness like a cunning and cowardly mouse, not daring to face Kong's attack head-on.
After all, if he really fought with Kong, it would be a loss. If it affected the progress of the ceremony and caused the mission to fail, the consequences would be disastrous.
Therefore, even though he felt as frustrated as a balloon about to explode, the Apostle of the Abyss still had to swallow his anger and suppress his rage, hoping to complete the ritual as soon as possible and leave this place that gave him so much headaches.
Because of the serious consumption of manpower, no matter what they do, the Abyss Apostle must be careful to save power. He remembered that Her Royal Highness the Princess once said that this is called diligence and thrift.
Of course, the more important reason was that he couldn't spare any time, because Boreas's resistance and the maintenance of the magic circle consumed a lot of his energy. The magic circle was like a bottomless pit, constantly devouring his energy, making him feel more and more powerless.
Every second the magic circle was maintained, he could feel his strength rapidly dissipating, as if the hourglass of life was rapidly reversing.
As Kong eliminated the second wave of enemies, he immediately pointed his sword at the Apostle of the Abyss.
At this moment, the sky was like a dazzling meteor, carrying a powerful aura of destruction, tearing through the darkness, and heading straight for the Apostle of the Abyss with the force of thunder.
The cold light flashing on the sword seemed to be the light of justice, which was going to completely eliminate the evil before its eyes.
However, when the attack approached, the Abyss Apostle dodged swiftly and completely left the range of the magic circle. His movements were as light and strange as a ghost, making it difficult to predict.
However, due to the departure of the Abyss Apostle, the magic circle that was maintained began to show signs of fading.
The magic circle that was originally flashing with strange light gradually dimmed, like a flame that was about to go out, and it lost its original evil power bit by bit.
The impact on Boreas is weakening, and if it continues, it will definitely be disadvantageous to the Apostles of the Abyss.
The Apostle of the Abyss who witnessed all this knew that today's event might not succeed. After thinking for a moment, he resolutely chose to give up.
Although he was filled with reluctance, he also understood that there was nothing he could do at this point in time and that continuing to dwell on the issue would only lead to more losses.
