Inside a simple big house, all the villagers were gathered here, taking refuge.
Gazef and his subordinates stood at the door, putting up a defensive formation to surround the entire house, being very strict in their defenses.
Because the villagers inside were all Gazef's protected objects.
Although a big battle was imminent, Gazef was leisurely at this moment.
The soldiers around him couldn't help asking: "Warrior-Captain, is it really okay to do this?"
What he meant by "doing this" was letting Roa face the enemies alone that should have been faced by Gazef and his group.
"Is it not very good to let that person go alone to meet the Sunlight Scripture of the Slane Theocracy?"
Another soldier also asked. It could be seen that both of them felt uneasy.
Regarding this, Gazef smiled and said: "It is natural for you to have such thoughts, but this is not Roa's request. He said that with our strength, we would only be a hindrance even if we went. In that case, we might as well honestly protect these villagers."
Although Gazef said that, his subordinates were still a little uneasy. He asked hesitantly: "That's what you said... but can he really repel an entire Sunlight Scripture by himself?"
This was not a distrust of Roa, but the opponent had been famous for a long time.
The opponent was one of the six special units of the Slane Theocracy. Their usual job was to annihilate demi-human villages. To this day, it was unknown how many powerful non-human creatures they had dealt with, and they had experienced countless battles of all sizes.
They were not one person, but a well-trained army. Facing such a terrifying guy, was there really a chance of winning?
Even Gazef couldn't say that he could draw with the other party with his subordinates, let alone him going alone to meet them. No matter how he looked at it, it was too reckless.
However, Gazef's answer was also very simple: "He can easily defeat even me who holds the Rigrit's Ring, so that guy must have his own plans, right? Have confidence in him. In short, I believe that Lord Roa will definitely deal with the other party easily."
Everyone heard that and stopped talking.
…Another place…
A figure slowly walked out of the village entrance. Roa said with a calm face: "Setting fire to houses and such behavior will make me quite troubled."
The young man was handsome and tall, slender, and his facial features were extremely handsome. The first impression he gave was that this guy was a complete pretty boy.
Nigun stared at Roa's face for a while, then his eyes looked behind Roa. He was silent for a while and asked: "Where is Gazef?"
"Oh, he's in the village. The village just suffered such a terrifying attack, and he is dealing with those troublesome things." Roa didn't hide anything, and told the truth about Gazef's situation.
Nigun's eyes flickered, he looked at Roa, and asked in that emotionless voice: "So, that is to say, you are the one who came out to intercept us instead of them?"
Roa generously nodded in admission, his expression still casual: "That's right."
Nigun hesitated for a moment. At this moment, he didn't directly attack, but instead persuaded: "We have no grudges. If you are willing to retreat, maybe I can let you live."
Nigun was a cautious person. Since the other party dared to come and intercept him alone, it meant that the other party must have matching strength. Although the other party's age seemed so young, it didn't prevent him from raising the enemy in front of him a few more levels.
Regarding Nigun's persuasion, Roa smiled and said: "Indeed, we have no grudges, so I will give you a chance."
Speaking of this, Roa paused, then continued: "Retreat now, and I will let you live."
As soon as the words fell, everyone's faces changed at the same time. Nigun's originally calm eyes also became sinister at this moment, and his sharp eyes stared at Roa. Nigun said coldly: "You have a big tone, kid. It seems that you don't know who we are."
Daring to intercept them alone, the other party might indeed be a rare genius, but a so-called genius, looking at his age, could at most only cast third-tier magic. Even if the other party could cast fourth-tier magic, so what?
It should be known that he himself was also a fourth-tier mage, and there were more than a dozen third-tier mages behind him. Not to mention fourth-tier mages of the same level, even if he faced a fifth-tier mage, Nigun might not be without a chance of fighting.
"It seems that we can't talk anymore." Roa restrained that lazy temperament, and his expression became serious.
Nigun snorted coldly, didn't say anything more, waved his hand, and said to the people behind him: "Prepare to kill the enemy in front of you, and then force out Gazef and his group. We must completely annihilate them."
At the moment when Nigun spoke, the mages standing behind Nigun raised their palms one after another. They put their eyes on Roa and began to chant and cast spells.
"Binding."
"Poisoning."
"Terror."
"Confuse Humans."
"Curse."
"Blindness."
One negative magic after another was used by the priests of the Sunlight Scripture, and bursts of magical brilliance successively landed on Roa's body. The colorful luster continued to flicker, but Roa didn't even raise his eyebrows.
Just kidding, this kind of low-level magic was impossible to work. Just his magic resistance alone could ignore all these magic.
If he truly wanted to affect Roa, he would have to come up with a negative buff of at least ninth order or higher to have a real chance of taking effect.
"It seems that you have chosen a dead end. What a pity." Roa shook his head as if regretting it.
Nigun snorted coldly, looked at Roa, and said to his companions around him: "Does he have a magic item that can resist mental magic?"
Magic can also be offset, especially for these low-level magic. As long as there is a mid-level magic item, most low-level magic can be ignored.
And the young man in front of him seemed to have a magic item with such functions.
But thinking about it, if he didn't have similar items, how could he be so rampant as to challenge their entire team alone? It should be known that this was a choice that even Gazef wouldn't dare to think about.
Regarding this, Nigun didn't feel much discouraged, but raised his hand and said loudly: "Then let the angels attack directly. Everyone, attack!"
Hearing Nigun's words, all the priests of the Sunlight Scripture immediately drove the Flame Archangels and let them rush towards Roa.
These third-tier angels were naturally the best cannon fodder. They could test the opponent's true strength and also consume some of the opponent's magic power.
However, their calculations were destined to be wrong.
Roa was not interested from the beginning and did not intend to spend too much time with the other party.
The young man stretched out his hand expressionlessly, magic power wrapped around his fingertips, and a smile appeared on the corner of the boy's mouth. He whispered: "Seventh-Tier Magic — Chain Dragon Lightning."
The next moment, electric light rose, and lightning illuminated the area that was about to enter the night.
"This is? Seventh-Tier Magic?" Nigun looked incredulous. In his barren life, he couldn't even imagine that someone would use seventh-tier magic to deal with him.
Being able to cast fifth-tier magic was known as a hero.
So what should be called someone who can cast seventh-tier magic?
Everyone began to panic and flee. The priests who were originally calm and confident, as if they had Roa in their grasp, began to scatter and flee. Those angels were left behind them. At this moment, they didn't want to taste the taste of seventh-tier dragon lightning with their bodies.
Lightning had soon gathered in Roa's hands. The young man slowly rose into the air, and lightning was swirling in Roa's right hand. Thick white lightning, as thick as a giant dragon, roamed around in circles.
The young man's figure was illuminated by the electric light, appearing so heroic, as if a god descended from heaven.
"Go."
Roa's finger pointed remotely, and a white lightning strike, as if a roaring giant dragon, swooped down towards the crowd on the ground.
With a huge rumbling sound, this huge dragon-shaped lightning seemed to have been given life, roaring and rushing towards the crowd.
It burned the earth as it traveled, destroying all visible things along the way, and even tore the angels floating in the sky into pieces, mud and rocks flying, and smoke rising everywhere.
The priests had been frightened out of their wits at this moment. In the face of seventh-tier magic, all resistance seemed so ridiculous.
'Run!'
Such thoughts filled everyone's hearts. They were indeed devout believers, but that didn't mean they were fools.
However, even if they reacted and planned to run, could they really escape?
"Aaaaaaaaah...!"
One member of the Sunlight Scripture after another, wearing priest's uniforms, was caught up by the lightning dragon before they could run a few steps, and their entire bodies were wrapped in lightning. They made miserable shouts, and the shouts echoed throughout the grassland, causing those who heard those shouts to tremble in their hearts.
Unable to escape, all that awaited them was death.
The angels were pierced by the lightning and dissipated. The ground was littered with charred corpses, a scene of human hell.
Nigun's gaze was dull as he looked at the lightning dragon wreaking havoc on the field. His gaze shifted to the huge angel that had been torn to pieces beside him.
The huge angel, who originally held a mace and a round shield, had now turned into light particles and was constantly dissipating.
His mace and damaged round shield were falling on the ground.
Angels were his most proud and self-satisfied product.
They were the symbol of his devotion, the result of his lifelong practice.
But what could be more shocking than watching his own faith crushed into pieces with his own eyes?
The sight that unfolded before him, if you had to describe it in two words.
Then it would be————Nightmare.
Everything he knew was overturned at this moment. He could swear to the god he believed in most that he had never seen such an outrageous thing in his life.
Escape.
He had to escape!
The young man in front of him could actually cast seventh-tier magic. He had to get out of here quickly and notify the upper echelons of the Slane Theocracy.
This was his first thought, and then he ran away with his tail between his legs, running towards the forest with all his might.
Gazef was very lucky. The direction in which he fled was the opposite of the direction in which many members fled. This also led to the lightning dragon not coming for him from the beginning, but tearing those ordinary priests everywhere.
After the lightning dragon dissipated, only Nigun remained alive in the field.
Roa hovered in mid-air, watching this extremely embarrassed priest with interest.
The roar of the lightning dragon ended, but Nigun did not have any joy in his heart.
Because after the roar ended, there was no more sound in the field, which meant that all his men were dead.
His heart sank, and at this moment, no matter how stupid he was, he knew that he could not escape.
Sure enough, the young man's mocking voice came from above. The young man said to him in that lazy voice: "Now it's just you alone. Well, you're pretty lucky."
Nigun's face was livid. At this moment, he was terrified, feeling like his heart was about to jump out.
He didn't run away blindly anymore. He made a decision. Nigun turned his head and shouted at Roa who was standing in the sky: "You bastard, damn it, don't come over, don't get close to me. Let me live, otherwise, we'll go down together!"
Speaking of this, he reached out and took something out of his arms.
It was a crystal ball, but the crystal ball was not round and had a strange shape.
Nigun shouted loudly at Roa: "This is the Slane Theocracy's treasure! If you come over again, I will remove the seal on it!"
In this world, there are three types of magical items that are generally recognized as having power beyond specifications.
One type is the secret treasure created by the Dragon Lord, who once ruled the world using ancient magic before being defeated by the Eight Greed Kings.
The Rigrit's Ring in Roa's hand can only be considered ordinary and cannot be regarded as a true treasure.
One type is the relics left by the Eight Greed Kings who briefly ruled this world five hundred years ago.
The last type is the treasures left by the Six Great Gods who descended six hundred years ago and established the foundation of the Slane Theocracy.
These three types of treasures all possess unimaginable power and can often turn the tide and sway the battlefield.
The magic-sealing crystal that Nigun was currently holding was one of the many treasures left by the Six Great Gods to the Slane Theocracy. It was a treasure that even in the Slane Theocracy only a few people could possess.
Originally, with his status, he would not be able to obtain such a prop at all, but because of the special circumstances, the Slane Theocracy was afraid that something unexpected would happen, so they bestowed it to him.
