Paladina wore a gold belt encrusted with diamonds around her waist, emitting a magical aura befitting her extravagant shape, accentuating her slender waist. Roland initially thought it was an accessory for chain mail, but after careful identification, he was surprised to find that the belt itself was also a quasi-legendary equipment, and the enchantment effect was simple and crude - strength, constitution, agility, intelligence, perception, and charisma were all +6!

"Genuine Nyima Tyrant!" Roland couldn't help but secretly envy, jealousy, and hatred.

The next thing that caught his attention was the cloak that Palatina wore over the chain mail, the red fabric and the diamond-encrusted tassels in the shape of a phoenix tail, exuding grace and luxury from head to toe. Unfortunately, the cloak called "Phoenix Feather Cloak" contained divine powers, hindering the "Pupil of Destiny" from delving deeper, and Roland could only vaguely guess that there was more than one legendary spell attached to the cloak, and it greatly increased Palatina's elemental resistance and all types of immunity checks.

Palatina revealed her weapon as she prepared her spell, holding a +5 floating iris shield forged from Mithril in her left hand, and a glowing mace in her right hand, the spiked head of the hammer forged in pure gold, and the granular bumps on the handle designed to prevent slippery hands were polished and shining rubies.

The hammer and sword were the standard weapons of the Imperial Knights, and it was not unusual for the Knights of Punishment to have a crossed mace and a long sword painted on it, but the mace in Palatina's hand made Roland feel inexplicably threatened. His uneasiness was reinforced by the identification of the "Pupil of Fate", ostensibly a "+4 Light Macehead", but the identification also revealed that the Mace was a sacred artifact of Perot, implying some mysterious power that only the Perio Priesthood could trigger.

At this time, Roland and Palatina were twenty paces apart, and they were ready to make a move, and Anthony and Little Alberton made eye contact and announced the start of the competition in unison!

Palatina reacted first, raising her hand and throwing her shield. The wide irises shield lifted itself in the air like a great silver bird that shimmered in silver, obscuring the mistress and forming an impregnable line of defense.

Palatina freed her left hand to grasp the emblem, her lips lightly chanted a series of melodious and moving prayers, and a teleportation array appeared on the ground along with prayers, and the figures of a group of celestial creatures emerged one after another, gradually changing from blur to clear.

"Celestial Summoning" is a professional specialty of the Knight of Punishment, and Palatina is especially good at it. After a few seconds, a total of one Celestial Elephant, three Celestial Bears, and five Celestial Dogs were summoned to her side.

Build a defensive line first, then summon helpers, and finally concentrate superior forces to besiege the opponent - this is the usual routine of the "punishment knights" of the Yashan Empire.

Paladina's tactical planning is very methodical, which can be called a model of steady and steady play. However, in Roland's opinion, this set of tactics is too rigid, so he doesn't want to play turn-based offensive and defensive games with her according to Palatina's routine, and without waiting for the other party to complete the arrangement, he directly stimulates the "High Divine Super Demon" to cooperate with the "Spell Instantaneous", and raises his hand to blast out the 8-ring "Flash Flood Technique"!

The magic power was highly concentrated in the palm of his hand, and the pitch-black dimensional void quickly expanded around Roland's right hand, breaking through the plane barriers between the local and water elemental realms, channeling the rolling torrent and turning into an overwhelming wave that blasted towards Palatina.

In an instant, the dimensional killing field was flooded by the torrent. Palatina's slightly stunned face disappeared into the depths of the whirlpool, and the celestial beasts that had just been summoned by her didn't have time to react before they were swept by the flood and slammed into the wall surrounding the dimensional killing field, and a series of rumbling sounds came from the depths of the water, mixed with faint screams, and several white lights rose into the sky, and then there was no movement. In just an instant, all the helpers summoned by Palatina lost their lives and returned to the heavenly realm.

At the moment when the spell ended, Roland started the "Divine Flight" and took off. Looking down from the sky, the dimensional killing field has been flooded, forming an artificial lake. Two waves rose on the water, and Anthony and Little Alberton flew up one after another.

"As soon as you make a move, Roland, this kid is really ruthless!" Anthony was stunned.

"Hope Palatina is okay." Little Alberton was also caught off guard by Roland's move, and stood wet in the air, looking for Palatina's figure with concern.

The surface of the water rippled, and a shadow rose into the sky like a golden arrow. As little Alberton expected, Palatina broke free from the shackles of the vortex and inspired the legendary chainmail "Celestial Legion" to take off into the air.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time!" Roland sneered, and a little silver light appeared in the depths of his pupils, showing his psychic ability.

Time accelerates!

The waves on the surface of the lake froze in the air, and the expressions of little Alberton and Anthony also froze on their faces, and the dimensional killing field suddenly fell into a deathly silence.

Roland took advantage of the gap obtained by "Time Acceleration" to calmly stimulate "Dispel the Undead", temporarily increased the casting level with the help of "Divine Power", and after completing the casting preparations, he opened his mouth and spewed out countless scarlet runes.

Spell Expansion, Blasphemous!

These runes of evil power seemed to come from a curse from the depths of purgatory, turning into a whirlwind of noise, and like a swarm of scarlet poisonous bees, roaring towards Palatina.

According to Roland's prediction, time would return to its normal flow at the moment when the "blasphemous words" overwhelmed Palatina, and Palatina would not have been able to avoid the imminent attack when she was caught off guard. The "Anti-Death Enchantment" blessed in advance can save her from being killed by the "Blasphemous Words", but unfortunately she is not blessed with spells to resist paralysis, weakness, and dizziness, and falling into these three negative states at the same time is no different from waiting for death.

However, something unexpected happened to Roland!

When he first revealed his psychic ability "Time Acceleration", Palatina also fell into a stillness like Alberton Jr. and Anthony, but this situation only lasted for less than a second, and "Phoenix Feather" immediately reacted, bursting out a circle of golden light, causing Palatina to also enter a "Time Acceleration" state, completing a series of defensive spells before "Blasphemous Words" approached her!

Spells are instantaneous!

Spell Expansion!

Silence!

The invisible "Silent Enchantment" rapidly expands around Palatina herself as the midpoint, sealing all actions that can cause sound waves to vibrate!

As the name suggests, "Blasphemous" is a spell that requires the use of sound waves. The Crimson Rune slammed into the Silence Barrier, like a moth to a fire and annihilated itself.

Roland was surprised to notice that Palatina was immune to the time-stopping effect, and rushed towards her without thinking. However, the shock wave brought by the "Divine Flight" was also eliminated by the Silence Enchantment, and he crashed headlong into a silent space isolated from particle vibrations, Roland's flight speed decreased sharply, and his uncontrolled body quickly slid to the ground.
