In the dungeon corridor,

Legendary Dark Elf Assassin Eliza moved as gracefully as a phantom in the night, silently lurking in the shadows of the corridor.

She wore tight black leather armor, outlining a graceful yet dangerous silhouette, her eyes glinting with a cold and bloodthirsty light.

At this moment, she was intently observing the enemy at the other end of the corridor...

Lis!

Lis held a magic wand that shimmered with an inexplicable magic radiance, exuding a mysterious and powerful magical aura.

Thud!

Lis's wand struck the ground heavily.

A continuous stream of magic power spread from the ground beneath the wand, spreading like a spider web all around.

This magic web climbed up the surrounding walls and the mid-air of the corridor, flickering momentarily before disappearing.

Legendary Spell: Silent Severing Net!

This legendary spell could seal the internal space, preventing the use of skills like space transmission and shadow jump.

At the same time, it also cut off communication between the inside and the outside.

This was the strongest sealing spell Lis currently mastered.

Before launching a surprise attack on Eliza, Lis was already prepared.

After all, Eliza was a Legendary Assassin.

Even if Lis's abilities in shadows could suppress the opponent, it didn't mean he could avoid Eliza's danger perception.

If the ambush failed, Lis would first sever the connection between Eliza and the outside world, then control her.

The reason for controlling Eliza was because Lis had discovered a problem earlier.

Or rather, among the four Legendary Dark Elves that appeared then, besides that Dark Elf Queen Spine, the other three had issues!

If Lis's feelings were correct, Eliza in front of him was the breakthrough point.

Since the Forbidden Land Fortress Donovan was under the watch of Spider Queen Rose, and Lis couldn't personally enter it, he had to find another way.

...

Seeing Lis appear in front of her, Eliza was somewhat surprised.

This person... is a Legendary Mage?

Someone else from the Pan-Continent Mage Association?

How did he sneak up behind me?

If it weren't for the heightened perception from becoming a Legendary Assassin, she might have been caught by this person without even noticing!

Besides, when facing an assassin professional of the same rank, shouldn't a mage maintain distance and use magic attacks?

Why did he approach proactively just now?

Was he planning to engage in close combat?

No... based on information, he is the World Tree Favored Lis Kain!

Not an opponent, must leave quickly!

Eliza had gathered information on Lis. The abilities of this World Tree Favored were incredibly diverse.

Not just various types of magic, he was also skilled in skills from warrior, assassin, priest, and other professions!

Why is he here?

Must quickly inform Lady Spine!

Eliza had already noticed this area was now unusable for all sorts of displacement abilities and communication was impossible.

Retreat first!

Just then, Eliza saw the magic power constantly surging around Lis.

Layers of defensive spells swirled around him like colorful ribbons, and then layers of beneficial spells buffed him, greatly enhancing his strength, speed, reaction ability, and other physical abilities.

Can't wait any longer!

Eliza knew very well that if she fled directly now, she would expose her vulnerable spots to Lis.

In a battle between legends, victory or defeat is decided in an instant.

Without hesitation, Eliza shot out from the shadows like an arrow off the string.

Her speed was as swift as lightning, and she instantly charged to Lis, her sharp dagger glinting with a cold light, aiming with deadly intent straight for Lis's throat.

However, the defensive spells surrounding Lis were as solid as a rock.

Eliza's dagger collided with the shield, sparking a brilliant display of sparks but failing to penetrate that seemingly thin yet incredibly resilient barrier.

Eliza was not surprised. Her figure flickered, circling behind Lis like a ghost, launching another attack.

Her attacks were as dense as a violent storm, the dagger cutting through the air with bizarre arcs, aiming for vital points on Lis's body from all tricky angles.

But using his strong magic perception and agile dexterity, Lis, with minimal movements, always managed to deftly avoid Eliza's attacks.

Meanwhile, Lis incessantly added various defensive and beneficial spells onto himself.

After a fierce entanglement, Lis finally completed the casting of all spells.

The corner of his mouth slightly curled up, and the form of the wand in his hand transformed, instantly becoming a dagger glinting with cold light.

Matteus's Magic Ring!

Thousand Forms Martial Core: Soul-breaking Dagger!

This was within the dungeon corridor, with narrow terrain; powerful spells couldn't be fully unleashed.

Though using spells had isolated this area, if the battle were too intense, damaging the dungeon corridor here might alert those Dark Elves.

His plan to infiltrate Donovan might then be jeopardized.

Quickly capture this one!

Lis's form moved, pouncing towards Eliza like a tiger descending from a mountain.

Lis's attack was swift and fierce, a stark contrast from the previous Lis who relied on magic defense.

Eliza was startled; she hadn't expected Lis's intel to be true, having such mastery even in melee combat.

Clang!

Their daggers clashed, and a blinding spark flashed in the darkness.

Eliza's complexion changed, as she quickly retreated several steps.

The hand holding the dagger trembled slightly, momentarily unable to recover.
