Yin Linlin, without giving him any chance to speak, threw the white glove in front of the bewildered man.
The white glove was like a drop of white dye falling into clear water, instantly transforming the ground into a pure white dueling space. The space expanded continuously until it encompassed the two of them…
Her Public Security Bureau uniform vanished, replaced by heavy tallic plate armor that covered her entire body.
The surface of the bright silver armor was densely inscribed with small magical formations composed of elental runes, providing not only extrely strong physical defense but also impressive magic resistance.
A tower shield taller than her entire Shell appeared in her left hand, an unbreakable steel bulwark.
In her right hand, she manifested a small warhamr that glowed with milky-white sacred light. The light flickered faintly: for its wielder, it could heal injuries, while for heretics, it could unleash devastating spell damage.
The fully ard, imposing female magic warrior took out a short flute and blew it lightly. A tan-colored earth dragon with a rhinoceros horn on its head responded to the summoning and erged.
The enormous earth dragon had thick, sturdy limbs and crouched on the ground like a heavy armored truck. Each breath carried a pungent scent of blood from its nostrils and mouth. Its massive eyes were filled with murderous intent.
The woman flipped herself onto the earth dragon’s back, transforming into a veritable Paladin.
Looking ahead, she saw that Lin Xun, the Apostle, had entered a combat stance the instant he stepped into the dueling space. Without hesitation, he had manifested a tall, slender Shell.
The Shell was draped in a pitch-black cloak, its face hidden behind a demonic mask, obscuring any features.
But judging by the two strange staves in his hands, it was obvious this Apostle’s Shell was a fragile mage.
Yin Linlin secretly shook her head. She pointed the Sacred Light Warhamr forward, and the earth dragon beneath her charged ahead with unstoppable force.
Before entering the dueling space, they had been very close, and now there was still very little distance between them.
Just a single charge from the summoned Rhinoceros-Horn Earth Dragon would crush him. A mage wouldn’t even have ti to chant before being pulped into a bloody sar.
Yin Linlin’s Shell was extraordinarily powerful, undefeated among the Ard Division in Hang City, and even within the Heavenly Punishnt Unit of this city, she was a figure of great renown.
Aside from Apostles at the sixth difficulty, no one had ever beaten her in a head-on duel. Even slightly weaker sixth-difficulty Apostles were no match for her!
If anyone thought Li Xingyue had only included her among the summoned Apostles out of friendship, that was a grave misconception.
The Paladin woman’s Shell not only possessed terrifying frontal combat power but also self-sufficient endurance in protracted fights. The Rhinoceros-Horn Earth Dragon she rode was a ferocious war beast capable of sweeping away thousands with a single charge.
In defensive chapters full of monsters, such as Outer Demon Invasions, her Shell was perfectly in its elent!
It was just a pity that if she only had to carry one useless Apostle, the elite team would still have a fair chance at clearing. But bringing two worthless ones made things too risky.
Yin Linlin wasn’t willing to gamble. If she lost, she would suffer in-ga penalties. Better to return ho and enjoy her vacation.
“Rumble!”
The Rhinoceros-Horn Earth Dragon charged like a siege engine, its unstoppable montum about to crush the frail mage to death.
Yin Linlin could hardly bear to look, her mind flashing to the of ‘getting flattened by a truck and isekai’d into another world.’
“Just don’t reincarnate as a magical girl,” she thought.
Then she saw the frail mage Shell lift its head, an eerie, cold glint shining out from beneath the demonic mask.
The Rhinoceros-Horn Earth Dragon suddenly froze, its charge interrupted so abruptly she nearly got thrown off.
She tried to command it again, but the normally obedient dragon only rolled its eyes and stood still.
With her wealth of PK experience, she imdiately realized she’d encountered a rare control skill.
“No wonder Lin Xun didn’t bother chanting, he was just waiting for to charge. Looks like he’s got so tricks up his sleeve.”
Yin Linlin raised her Sacred Light Warhamr and activated the Shell skill Sacred Light Blessing!
This epic-grade skill could dispel abnormal statuses and continued to function while active, rendering her immune to all negative effects during its duration.
Milky-white sacred light descended from the heavens, enveloping the Paladin and her earth dragon. Bathed in this radiance, she looked even more inviolable and sacred.
Yet beneath her, the Rhinoceros-Horn Earth Dragon kept rolling its eyes, showing no sign of breaking free of control.
Yin Linlin was shocked. There was only one reason a dispel would fail, her opponent’s control skill exceeded the tier of her dispel!
Normally, a Shell could only exert skill effects up to half a tier above its own.
Even if a Shell wore mythic-grade equipnt or learned mythic-grade skills, if the Shell itself was only Ruined quality, it could at best manifest the power of ordinary-grade gear and skills.
This ant that the man before her was using a skill of at least Epic quality, and his Shell was at least Epic tier!
Her guess was perfectly accurate. What she didn’t know was that the Direct Vision President’s Shell, under Lin Xun’s talent bonuses, had already reached Epic and had even learned the legendary-grade skill Falling Starlight!
Nor did she know that even if she had learned a skill of the sa grade, she still wouldn’t be able to dispel the control effect of Pleasure-Hazed Sight.
Because this skill also gained bonuses from the Knowledge stat, and for ordinary Apostles, it was nothing short of dinsional suppression.
Unless her dispel skill was no less than Epic and also had a host of special attribute bonuses, no matter how many tis she cast Sacred Light Blessing, it would be in vain.
