The entire sanctuary was filled with an atmosphere of a desperate battle to the death, a final moment.

Lan Qi produced two more orange epic cards at the most critical moment, as if mocking the Destroyer Saintess. The executioner, paladin, and male bodyguard, who had already resigned themselves to death, seemed to see the great sun rising again, roaring with renewed vigor!

And in front of Lan Qi.

"Ah ah..."

The Destroyer Saintess widened her eyes, her terrified pupils only reflecting the deadly orange light.

Even though orange epic cards are extremely powerful, because they cannot be unbound once equipped and cannot be changed according to tactical needs, reducing the flexibility of one's spell structure, every choice of orange epic and pink divine cards must be carefully considered.

In other words, a person's orange epic and pink divine magic cards basically represent their core system, especially the orange epic cards, because compared to the pink divine cards, which still have some room for unbinding, orange epic cards cannot be unbound for life.

Destroyer Saintess Adeline could not imagine that Lan Qi, in addition to [Great Poet of Love], actually had two unused orange cards!

Even without knowing the effects of the two epic cards, Adeline had already personally felt that each of Lan Qi's cards was bound to be the ultimate insult and torment.

Instantly.

The fear and resistance filling the Destroyer Saintess's heart momentarily outweighed the humiliation and anger.

She would rather die than use her body to try Lan Qi's remaining magic cards, let alone two trump card epic cards!

After the raging fire in her heart was extinguished by the thick fear, all that remained for the Destroyer Saintess at this moment was an overwhelming desire to survive.

She instinctively looked towards the door of the sanctuary.

The Destroyer Saintess's body began to sway. She leaned on the magic sword in her hand to stand up from the ground, urging her still somewhat numb legs to run outside.

"Despicable coward!!!"

Accompanied by a loud shout, the executioner's axe drew a silver arc in the air, and the paladin's holy light longsword flashed with a mysterious light, fiercely slashing towards the Destroyer Saintess Adeline's lower back.

The male bodyguard's short sword was like a cold light. He rushed out from the darkness, like a poisonous snake stabbing at the Destroyer Saintess Adeline's feet.

However.

Because the Destroyer Saintess chose to flee rather than fight, she was ultimately one step short.

Accompanied by the red fire ring spreading out from the Destroyer Saintess again, the sword tip drew a scorching arc in the air, and circles of extremely hot crimson flames erupted from the ground, blasting the three of them away!

The Destroyer Saintess's figure, determined to retreat, was like black lightning, increasingly rapidly crossing the empty atrium, rushing towards the door.

Even though the three brave warriors who fought with their lives were chasing the Destroyer Saintess Adeline again, she still relied on her already recovered terrifying speed to widen the distance, like a demon wrapped in black fire, passing through the sanctuary door and disappearing into the forest outside!

And a few breaths later, at the entrance of the sanctuary.

"Damn it!"

"Stop, we can't chase anymore."

For a time, the three people who chased to the door looked tired and pained, as if their fighting spirit had been exhausted.

The male bodyguard soberly stopped the executioner and paladin who still wanted to rush out to chase the Destroyer Saintess.

If they left the sanctuary and continued to chase, there was a high probability that the three of them would be counter-killed.

Or they could leave a blind spot, leaving the sanctuary lacking protection. If the Destroyer Saintess made a surprise attack, she might kill all the back row left here.

And before long, it would be dark, and they would not be able to catch up with the Destroyer Saintess at all.

"If we don't catch her now, we'll lose the best opportunity!"

The executioner heavily punched the sanctuary door. The executioner's clenched palm was already full of blood, and the axe had weakly fallen to the side. Only resentment and unwillingness remained in his voice.

The paladin had already collapsed on the cold, hard stone ground, exhausted, with a bitter smile on his face.

It was just a little bit.

Now that the Destroyer Saintess had run away, waiting for her to attack again every night, the next four and a half days would still be a nightmare without sleep!

And wanting to catch her in the forest during the day...

In that kind of terrain suitable for one-on-one battles, multiple people might be defeated by her one by one.

Under the sanctuary's rose window.

The few people's sorrowful and frustrated eyes looked at the already empty sanctuary door. Even the most powerful fearless warriors felt endless weakness and depression at this moment.

Although the people in the back row knew that they had escaped a disaster, letting the Destroyer Saintess escape was just a stopgap measure, perhaps not even as good as fighting her to the death.

"What if she comes back to kill us again tonight?"

Whether it was the priest or the bodyguard sister, or Hyperia, who was guarding behind Lan Qi, they were all extremely worried and could only ask Lan Qi for advice.

Now they could only hope that he had a way to deal with the midnight raid.

Everyone else was also extremely puzzled as to why the lawyer still had two orange epic cards but didn't use them!

"..."

Hyperia looked complicated, wanting to explain something to everyone, but didn't know how to start.

She was very clear that although Lan Qi's two third-order epic cards were indeed extremely powerful, they would also harm his teammates.

In such a team battle situation, other than scaring the Destroyer Saintess, there was no great practical use.

Even if they had fought the Destroyer Saintess head-on just now, even if they could capture or kill her alive, the executioner, paladin, and male bodyguard would almost have no hope of surviving.

In the end, Lan Qi couldn't bring himself to let his comrades, with whom he had deep feelings, go to their deaths.

Instead, he chose to deliberately scare the Destroyer Saintess away.

But Hyperia couldn't evaluate whether this move was good or bad.

However.

Lan Qi just smiled meaningfully, then stretched and walked towards the kitchen.

As if he had finished work and was ready to enjoy today's dinner.

This kind of reaction left everyone confused and puzzled!

……

In that dense and deep forest, huge trees stood on the soil, stretching towards the sky. The canopy and branches overlapped, blocking the setting sun, leaving only dim light and shadows.

A gust of wind blew past, the leaves rustling, as if the mist was whispering.

The Destroyer Saintess, like a severely wounded and miserable beast, was traveling between the trees. The ends of her hair were stained red, and her skirt armor scraped against the bushes, making a creaking sound. Behind her, a string of bright red blood droplets fell on the black earth.

Kill you...

Kill you!!!

The Destroyer Saintess whimpered with a ferocious expression, as if she couldn't wait to recover her state and kill all the challengers who could only hide in the castle at night!

But she didn't realize.

Behind a tree not far away.

A tall and strong figure walked out silently.

He was carrying a heavy crossbow, just like a hunter who had finally waited for his prey.

Shadows clung to his face, only the purple pupils in the dimness were particularly clear.
