Chapter 377: The Hidden Chess Piece
No one knows how long it has passed.
Centered on the battle sites of Artevans and Talia, almost a third of the southern continent has been devastated. Half of the eastern city-state closest to Phochers had been destroyed by the battle, and those who did not wake up in time to escape were put to rest forever.
The constant convergence and collision of light and darkness stirred up waves of intense qi one after another, and each energy collision added a new wound to this continent.
The battle had gone on for so long that the noise of the battle woke everyone in the eastern part of the Southern Continent that should have been asleep.
People stepped out of their homes to watch the battle unfold in the sky of the ruined city of Phothes.
Everyone was amazed that the legendary battle between angels and demons actually took place in front of their eyes.
The breeze blowing through the autumn night makes people feel a little cool. The gust of wind carried the faint power of the oracle and the remnant of dark energy that had spilled over from the battle between Artevans and Talia into the eastern city-states, and the people couldn't help but shudder when they felt even the slightest remnant of energy.
However, even as the air became more and more suffocating, no one chose to hide inside. The drowsiness of the people had been dispelled by the battle, and all eyes were fixed on the distant sky, and instead of shouting, they were waiting, praying, and meditating, and they wanted to see the end of the battle with their own eyes.

……
At this time, in the sky of Phochers City, two figures, one light and one dark, suddenly collided together, causing a violent explosion, adding another gap to the already dilapidated space.
The two figures quickly separated after the collision and fell into a standoff.
"Rusha, how long can you use to assist me with my mental power and soul power?" Atvance gasped slightly, frowning as he stared at Talia in front of him, and asked Rusa in his inner space with his mind.
"Probably...... Ten minutes at most.'" Rusha was silent for a moment, then responded in a somewhat weak tone.
After a long battle, Artevans had consumed at least seventy percent of the energy stored in the [Black Death Arm], and half of his own spiritual power and dark energy had been used, and Artfans's energy was no longer as surplus as it was at the beginning.
And the burden borne by Arusha is far above that of Artefans. As a result of using her mental and soul powers to assist Artevans for a long time, Rusa's energy has been deprived, and if she continues like this, her life will become more and more threatened as time passes.
However, Rusha's condition at this time can only last for a maximum of five minutes, and the ten minutes she says will require her life in exchange.
In order to ensure that Atvance can defeat Talia completely, Aruba chose to lie to Atlence.
However, Artevans still had a vague sense that there was something wrong with Rusa's tone, so he asked, "What exactly do you mean by ten minutes?"
"I can continue to assist for as long as I can, why does Lord Artevans knowingly ask?" Rusa replied.
"You should know that no one can fool me when it comes to energy, so you'd better be honest with me. If I'm not mistaken, you're trying to sacrifice all the mental and soul power that makes up your body to help me." Artevans did not hesitate to expose Rusa's lies.
In the face of Artevans's words, Rusha fell silent.
Seeing that Rusha didn't respond, Artevans didn't continue, but focused his attention on Talia in front of him again.
Talia's situation was no better than that of Artevis, she had used up almost all the feathers of Angel Wings, and now she only had the five remaining feathers in her hand, and most of the oracle power in her body had been used.
The battle between Artevans' clone and Wings is long over. The result of this additional battle is that the clones are scattered, and Wings exhausts all of their energy and returns to Taria. Having lost its energy, it has also lost its ability to assist Talia, and the light it emits has become extremely dim.
However, even after a long battle, the two still did not leave any scars on their bodies, after all, their self-recovery ability is top-notch.
The two stared at each other and did not act.
Another twenty seconds passed, and the scene seemed to be deadlocked.
And then, it was Artevans who made the first move.
[Wings] could no longer assist Talia was undoubtedly advantageous for Atellus, and while the support effect given by Aruba could last a little longer, Atellance raised his hand and condensed a huge black ball and smashed it towards Taria.
Seeing this, Talia condensed a ball of light of the same size and threw it.
The collision of the light ball and the black ball once again provoked violent fluctuations, and this is not known to be the first time that the energy has fluctuated.
The spread of energy engulfed Atvance and Talia, and when the energy dissipated, their bodies were revealed, and their bodies were covered in wounds, blood oozing from the wounds. However, the wound soon healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Of course, such a scene has happened many times, and as long as both sides cannot inflict substantial damage on the other side, then with their ability to heal themselves, a small injury is not worth mentioning at all, and the battle will continue forever.
(It's endless...... )
Artevans frowned, a hint of displeasure on his face. baby xiaoshuowa
But at that moment, Rusa's voice rang out in her head, "Lord Artevans, it's time for the chess piece you asked me to set up earlier, it's time to play a role."
"What chess pieces?" Atlvans was a little confused.
However, he quickly remembered what he had said earlier, and immediately understood what the chess pieces that Rusha was talking about.
It was when he had just killed Biant, and Atfans had killed the adventurers who had traveled with Biant to the western part of the Southern Continent, but only one person was left for Rusa.
Rusha destroyed the adventurer's consciousness and remodeled it a little, then gave the adventurer an order to lurk somewhere.
Reflecting on this, Artevans immediately asked, "So where is that piece now?"
"I've ordered him to come here with my mind, and he's in the house that hasn't been completely destroyed, as long as Lord Artevans can force the Archbishop of the Divine Heir to fall into that room. After that, the chess piece will naturally play its due role.'" Rusha responded immediately.
Atfans glanced below where Talia was, and there was indeed a room that had not yet been shattered, then nodded, and said, "If you want to force Talia to land...... Well, do that.'"
"Understood." Although Artevans's words were vague, Rusha understood them.
Immediately afterward, Rusha collected the mental and spiritual powers used to assist Artevans back to herself, leaving only a little residue in Atvance's limbs. Atfans' eyes turned from the dark purple of the [Black Magic Pupil] to red, and sharp black claws gradually condensed on his fingers.
After gaining control of Atvance's body, Rusa did not hesitate at all, and quickly rushed to Talia with the manipulation of Atvance's body, swinging her sharp black claws at Taria.
Seeing Atvance suddenly rushing in front of her, Talia subconsciously used the power of the oracle to condense a naginata to meet it, and then fought against Atvance.
But soon, she fell behind in hand-to-hand combat.
(Is that the case again...... )
Talia noticed the change in Atvance's eyes and immediately realized that it was Rusa manipulating Atvance's body.
She couldn't help but frown, and her face became a little ugly. [Wing] has exhausted all of its energy, and it will not be possible to restore [Wing]'s energy for a while, and Talia must be assisted by [Wing] if she wants to fight against Artevans, who was manipulated by Erusa, in melee combat.
Still, Talia gritted her teeth and brandished her naginata, taking on Artfans' attacks again and again.
Suddenly, as if he had lost his balance, Artevans voluntarily retreated two meters.
Seeing this opportunity, Talia pursued Artevans, picked up her naginata and slashed at the opponent's neck.
However, Artevans gave Talia a sinister smile, "Why do you think Rusa would make a mistake in melee combat with you?"
Tarya's words stunned Talia, and then she felt a wave of energy above her head.
Talia looked up and saw a large black palm slapping towards her.
"Heaven is broken!" Talia roared, and a powerful wave of qi erupted, shattering the black palm.
And Artevans didn't care about [Sky Break] at all, and forcibly resisted this blow, and his body was not repelled in the slightest. The black claws on his hands turned into fist armor, and he clenched his fists and punched Talia in the stomach.
Suddenly, with a powerful blow, Talia's eyes widened, and she leaned down, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
Immediately afterward, Artevans threw another punch at Talia's back. This time, he knocked Talia straight to the ground, right in the room that hadn't been destroyed yet.
Seeing that Talia had landed, Artevans did not pursue, but remained in the air, looking at the house that had been smashed out of a pit, and asked Rusa, "Is it really what you said?"
"With her character, that chess piece will definitely be useful." Rusa replied confidently.
——————————————
"Uh......
Talia struggled to get up from the ground and spat out another mouthful of blood.
She felt a fire-like stinging pain in her abdomen and back, the dark energy of Atlance eating away at her body.
Talia immediately took a deep breath and mobilized the power of the oracle to expel the dark energy that had invaded her body.
But at this moment, a weak voice came from my ears, "Help...... Save me......
Talia was stunned, turned her head to look, and saw a man covered in injuries and mutilated body crawling towards her, his mouth kept making a cry for help.
(Why, are there still living ...... here?) )
