Four or five cardinals stood in Qi Yifang's way, but even so, the unpredictable Muke took half of Qi Yifang's blood.

With such a suicidal attack, Qi Yifang clearly knew that if reinforcements did not arrive soon, he would be cleared by Muke down to a bloodied bottom, and Bai Liu would come out and take him.

Before Qi Yifang could recover from this thought, he heard a guard screaming, "Witches, witches are coming in!"

"Don't panic!" A cardinal was shouting, "These witches are tried sinners, they cannot attack us holy monks!"

As soon as the cardinal's words fell, a black shadow suddenly fell from the sky above, and all looked up to see it.

The weather in this part of the papal palace was already within Qi Yifang's grasp, and this sudden appearance of shadows was not at all what he had expected.

"Eels!!!"

The guards screamed in horror, "It's the eels!!!"

"Eels are raining from the sky!!!"

The eel fell from the sky and hung like a vine and a snake on the Cardinal, who had just been screaming that the witch could not attack him, and when he saw the eel hanging from him, his face hissed in horror and he shook his cloak frantically.

"Go! Go!"

The cardinals shuddered and shook the eels off themselves, "Call the reserve witches to digest these eels!"

"Okay, I don't think so ......" The cardinal next to him swallowed with a blank expression, he had just seen an eel get into one of the guards clothes, the guard's immediately covered his buttocks and rolled on the floor with a twisted expression.

"This eel, the eel seems to be a ...... male eel."

The expressions of all the cardinals who heard these words froze, and the Pope stumbled a little and turned his head incredulously to the cardinal who had spoken: "What eel is this, you say?!"

The eels do not swim towards the attacking witch, instead they gather around the men and crawl up around their calves, and every man's expression changes.

Many of the bishops fell to the ground before they could take two steps. The originally holy and glorious papal palace was like a huge snake pit, hung with grey and black eels, and the screams and cries for help of the members of the Papacy were everywhere. In just a few seconds, the magnificent and lofty papal palace was turned into a hell on earth by a pool of male eels.

Qi Yifang dodged the approaching eels while dodging Muke who kept flickering closer to him with his dagger in his hand, gritting his teeth and looking at his panel - five seconds to the end of the stasis, twelve life points left, should be in time.

V ......

Muke's dagger stabbed Qi Yifang in the side of the neck, bringing out a trail of blood.

iv.

The voice of the witch calling was close at hand, and Qi Yifang heard Liu Jiayi's voice for the first time in a long time, which put him in a trance.

For a moment, he thought Jiayi had come to his rescue - just like when he was playing in the King's Guild before, whenever he was on the verge of dying, the little witch would descend from the sky and bring him out of the shadow of death.

Three.

Qi Yifang finally heard Jiayi's voice, she was shouting, " Muke! Bai Liu!"

II.

Qi Yifang's eyes regained their composure as he looked towards the dimensional shield that was spinning and faintly showing signs of shattering, gripped the weathervane in his hand and took a deep breath.

One.

All the chaos is happening in this moment.

Bai Liu drew his whip and tore out of dimensional shield space. Qi Yifang gripped his wind vane and summoned the storm again, Muke's white-glowing blade stabbed relentlessly into Qi Yifang's heart, at the same time Qi Yifang's wind vane stabbed hard into Muke's heart.

[System Alert: Player Qi Yifang has zero life value to confirm his death, exit the game.

[System Alert: Player Muke has zero life points to confirm his death and is out of the game.

The howls of anger and sorrow of the giant at the loss of his comrades came from the far side of the court of judgement, the time limit for the prayer song descended by the nun had expired, and the burning monster who had charged for her fell to the ground after burning twice his life, along with the thief who had fallen, battered and burned beyond recognition, in the centre of the great hole under the giant's hammer, still laughing uncontrollably.

"...... wanders for the main attack, no loss."

[System Alert: Player Liu Ji has zero life points to confirm his death, exit the game.

[System Alert: Player Mu Sicheng has zero life value to confirm his death, exit the game.

The storm forms a barrier, blocking everyone's path to the staircase, and behind the Pope are clusters of eels chasing him, the old, decrepit man in a state of disarray, his expression frightened, panting, rolling and crawling towards Bai Liu with his sceptre, which he opens his five fingers to snatch from his hand, and which Bai Liu dodges with a deft step back.

On the Sky City, Hearts' eyes closed, he stepped in front of the gap, the wind blowing out of it seemed to blow his soul out, and the moment Hearts touched it, his heart beat wildly and fiercely as if it had frozen into a jewel, and his soul wrapped itself around the gap like a substance.

A silvery blue glow flickered erratically in this slit.

The entrance to the Stairway to Heaven hidden in the storm.

The scepter in Bai Liu's hand shook, and the silver-blue slit in the middle of the jewel glowed like a resonant light, as if it had an autonomous consciousness, and sprang up and flew into the Pope's hand.

The moment the Pope had the sceptre, he ran in the direction of the staircase with great joy, followed by Bai Liu, who followed the moment the Pope opened the staircase with his sceptre.

The moment the stormy Quan Baola found the stairway open, he sprinted up it, leading the team of witches behind himself, the Pope fleeing upwards on his hands and knees while constantly waving his sceptre back in terror, trying to use it as a key to close the stairway and stop the men coming after him.

But the staircase, which had always been able to close instantly, kept flickering as if it had malfunctioned, and could not be closed in any way but slowly.

The Pope realised just a moment later that something was wrong with the resonant seam beneath the City of Sky, and that was why the stairway would not close.

The young witch, almost blown away by the fierce storm, grabbed the pillars around the ladder, barely able to open her eyes to see around her, and escorted the witch and Bai Liu up to the island, ready to break off and go up last - she had to stop the other cardinals from going up, or Bai Liu and the witch would have a difficult fight against each other on the island. The Cardinal is immune to injury for them.

The Cardinal's scepter did a lot of damage to her, Liu Jiayi did not dare to zoom in easily and had some difficulty blocking it with the CD skill of poison. The moment one of the Cardinals was about to approach Liu Jiayi, the Hunter's swift shot arrived and hit the scepter in the Bishop's hand with precision.

The sceptre falls and Tang Erda appears.

" Jiayi, you go first to the island." Tang Erda quickly changed magazines, "I'll break off the rear."

Liu Jiayi nodded, and the moment she was about to step onto the ladder, it suddenly flickered and quickly closed up, while at the same time the giant's frenzied hammer came down on the ladder, smashing it to pieces, and with it, the cold voice of the nun: "It seems we are too late after all."

"It's letting some people on the island who shouldn't be on the island."

In the midst of a storm that could have covered the sky, the nun slowly stepped down from the giant's lifting grip and came up to Liu Jiayi, who looked at her tensed up and suddenly smiled.

"It's been a long time, little witch."

"I am finally strong enough to stand on a battlefield with you."

Phoebe smiled sweetly as she cocked her head and whispered inquiringly, "Face me squarely for once, little witch."

"You're the one I want to win the most."

The moment she said that, Phoebe closed in on Liu Jiayi, raising her hand in a cold slash to the back of the neck, Tang Erda drew her gun back, and Titan moved in with a roar, slamming it down in Tang Erda's direction, separating him from Liu Jiayi.

Tang Erda frowned - this Titan's attack was not high, but his defence was ridiculously high, resulting in his opponent not being able to kill him, although he could not kill him either.

"Guess if the hunter sends Titan away first ......" Phoebe smiled and struck again, "or if I send you away first?"

Ornamental pool.

The crowd watched with bated breath, and although the whole situation was now in chaos, almost all of them realised one thing - the two sides were in the heat of the battle.

Lu Yizhan pondered: "With Phoebe and Titan holding Tang Erda and Jiayi at bay, Bai Liu couldn't use Jiayi and Tang Erda as his two power-ups, which is why Muke suicide swapped Qi Yifang out of the game and Mu Sicheng out of the game. So now Bai Liu has the speed panel of a thief and an assassin in his hand, which is good for Bai Liu - it's no coincidence that this was probably Jiayi's tactic from the start. If we encounter a switch tactic from the opponent, she should have dictated who to switch first."

"Because the game has come this far, it's all about who moves faster."

On the other side, Mu Sicheng and Muke, both a little bruised, were resting with towels over their eyes, breathing heavily and still recovering from the strenuous workout they had just had in the game.

Mu Sicheng suddenly spoke up, "I kept Tang Erda."

Muke calmly answers, "I kept Bai Liu."

The two men were quiet for a moment, then suddenly smiled in unison and raised their hands in a lazy high-five.

"The execution of the tactician's plan is complete."
