219: Why didn't you say it earlier, Red-Warm Kadra!

“My Lord, this is bad!”

The Great Wizard burst into the room in a panic and knelt before the soul body on the throne.

“Two powerful individuals bathed in holy light have appeared outside the Land of Darkness. They are searching for something in the outer areas and could enter the Land of Darkness at any moment!”

Soul One opened his eyes, slowly exhaled a mouthful of soul residue, and said with displeasure, “It’s just two from the Light Faction. Why are you panicking? Has their identity been confirmed? What about their specific strength?”

Upon hearing this, the Great Wizard quickly composed himself and calmly replied, “Confirmed.”

“One is the new Pope of the Light Church, Lydia, and the other is the Tenth Divine Emissary of the Light God Realm, Kadela...”

Crack!

Before the Great Wizard could finish speaking, he heard the sound of glass shattering.

The precious orb beside Soul One shattered into powder, and he abruptly stood up, cursing angrily, “Why didn’t you say so earlier!!”

The Great Wizard, like a cicada in winter, immediately prostrated himself on the ground, not daring to move.

He felt wronged, thinking, didn’t you tell me not to panic…

Soul One paced back and forth in the room anxiously, floating around, contemplating a countermeasure.

Currently, Lord Hodel had already gone to the Dark World, and he himself was a soul body, his strength greatly diminished.

Let alone a Divine Emissary from the God Realm, even dealing with the Pope now would be difficult for him.

Most of the high-level combat power in the entire Land of Darkness was basically dead, and only one captain of the Black Death Guard remained, which was completely useless.

They absolutely cannot be allowed to enter!

Soul One’s mind raced, and suddenly a flash of inspiration struck him.

“Did you just say they were searching for something in the outer areas?”

“Uh… yes.” The Great Wizard subconsciously replied.

“That’s right then! The location information of the Land of Darkness is absolutely confidential, so perhaps it’s just an accidental intrusion…”

The more Soul One thought about it, the more he felt it was possible, and he immediately issued an order.

“Immediately control the mist, guide the route to let them leave, hurry!”

“Yes!”

The Great Wizard rose and departed.

......

“Hey, hey, the mist has cleared.”

Lydia pointed forward, suddenly exclaiming in surprise.

Kadela, beside her, looked puzzled at the sight, subconsciously looking around.

After being lost for a long time, such a sudden situation made her feel something was wrong.

Ever since being severely beaten by that Three-Eyed Demon God, both of them had declined significantly in condition, and she felt an unprecedented sense of frustration, instinctively becoming more cautious.

“Be careful of a trick, it might be a trap.”

“Then what should we do?” Lydia frowned slightly.

Kadela thought for a moment, then suddenly extended a finger and said, “I have an idea. Let’s go in the opposite direction and not fall for their trick!”

Lydia pondered for a moment, and her eyes also lit up.

But then, as if she thought of something else, she hesitated slightly.

“But… what if this path is the way out?”

Kadela’s expression was calm, speaking like a spiritual mentor, “We cannot gamble on the enemy’s good intentions, just as we cannot believe a gambler who says they will never gamble again.”

“So, we can only rely on our own choices.”

“Alright, I’ll trust you this once.”

Lydia couldn’t be sure if it was true or not; she only knew that being together was definitely stronger than fighting alone.

“Let’s go!”

Both of them burst with holy light, turned around, and rushed into the mist behind them!

......

At the same time.

In the great hall of the Land of Darkness, the Three Great Wizards were all dumbfounded.

Watching the two bright spots rapidly moving closer on the black sphere, they couldn’t help but curse loudly!

“Damn it, are they crazy! They’re not playing by the rules!”

“We opened the way for you, but you don’t take it. Are you addicted to being lost or what?!”

“Oh, stop worrying about that and quickly think of what to do!”

The last Great Wizard interjected, his head aching.

The three immediately brainstormed and quickly came up with a solution.

“Since they’re taking the opposite path, we’ll point them in the opposite direction, doesn’t that solve it?!”

“Good idea, but the direction and angle can be slightly changed to prevent them from going in reverse again, ensuring foolproofness!”

“Excellent, let’s do it that way!”

The Three Great Wizards reached a consensus and immediately cast spells to operate...

The mist passage changed again.

Lydia and Kadela quickly stopped, their expressions somewhat bewildered.

“The mist seems to have changed direction. Should we continue or turn back?”

“Continue!”

Kadela’s pink lips curled slightly, full of confidence.

“The other side must have noticed us going in the opposite direction, so they deliberately changed it to the correct direction. If we retreat, we’ll fall into their trap!”

“Hey, don’t tell me, your divine race’s brains are indeed useful, huh…”

Lydia largely agreed with her words, sighing with emotion.

However, she always felt something was off deep down but couldn’t put her finger on it, so she could only follow Kadela’s line of thought for now.

The two no longer hesitated and began to advance along the mist passage!

“This is great! This method really works!”

Seeing the light spots moving along their planned route, the Three Great Wizards were all overjoyed.

But then came a wave of lingering fear, sending shivers down their spines.

Fortunately, they didn’t point the passage towards the true location of the great hall just now, otherwise the other party’s second reverse move would have truly collided with it.

“By the way, although we adjusted the direction so that it brushed past the great hall’s location, the rear is a passage connecting to the Dark World. They might not be able to enter there…”

“That problem is simple. I’ve already requested permission, we can open the passage to let them through, and then close it.”

“Also, to reduce energy consumption, the formation that restricts strength was shut down by the Lord the moment the plan was activated, so there’s no need to worry.”

“Oh, that’s good, that’s good…”

The three all breathed a sigh of relief, finally able to send these two plagues away…

On the other side.

Lydia and Kadela continued forward along the mist passage.

After an unknown amount of time, there was suddenly no path ahead!

The mist re-covered the front, but the passage behind them remained.

Kadela sneered, feeling the other party was being redundant.

“Still trying to trick me into returning? I won’t. The front must be the exit, let’s go!”

With that, she plunged into the mist and disappeared.

Lydia followed closely, also diving in.

But when the two entered the mist, they suddenly realized something was wrong.

Not only was the mist thicker here, but even the environment had changed!

And there was an irresistible force eroding their power.

Oh no, they had entered a trap!

Kadela was of the divine race and possessed divine bloodline, which could, to some extent, reduce the speed of erosion.

But Lydia couldn’t resist and could only endure it.

At this moment, Kadela’s face was extremely grim, one could even say furious.

If her previous expression was one of cold indifference, now it was a cold indifference that had turned red-hot.

A faint grinding sound of teeth could be heard.

The surrounding temperature was rising.

She had thought she was in control of everything, victory assured, but she had been thoroughly played by the other party. This was utterly unacceptable to her arrogant nature!

She had been brutally beaten by the Three-Eyed Demon God in terms of strength, and now she was cruelly toyed with by the mist in terms of intelligence!

“Ah!!!!”

She roared in anger, golden holy light attacking wildly, causing ripples and fluctuations in the mist repeatedly.

Lydia’s mood was slightly better.

She had always felt something was off, and now she knew what it was.

It was that Kadela trusted her own judgment too much, being too clever for her own good.

After venting wildly for a while.

Kadela’s emotions slowly stabilized.

The two had no choice but to continue their journey, searching for an exit…
