Chapter 065 The Battle of the D-Rank Witch
Flames rose into the air four or five meters away from Luo Xi.
Even after creating this distance, Luo Xi could still feel the terrifying heat. And this was only the aftershock that Wei Ying had carefully controlled to avoid affecting her and Shui Lin.
Flames surged wildly in the air, like a small sun, and then transformed into a giant fire dragon.
The fire dragon danced wildly in the sky, the surrounding air twisted and deformed under the high temperature. It opened its ferocious maw and pounced on the Zero Witch, swallowing her whole in one gulp.
This is the attack of a D-rank witch!
Luo Xi's eyes narrowed, and his consciousness movement suddenly activated, instantly appearing beside Shui Lin and moving her a hundred meters away.
"Is this what a D-rank witch is?" After stopping her conscious movement, Luo Xi stood beside Shui Lin and murmured to herself.
She raised her hand and gently touched the crack on her forehead; the mental journey she had just experienced had already had a slight effect on her body.
Previously, using this ability in the world of consciousness was almost costless, but now even that would bring a burden. If she were to get into a fierce battle, her body would probably collapse before her magic power was exhausted.
The magic itself was still repairing her body, but the excessive magical properties had exceeded the control of a novice witch, causing an imbalance of magic within her body.
Right now, she can only withstand short periods of intense fighting.
As her thoughts raced, Luo Xi recalled the information about novice and intermediate witches.
F-rank and E-rank are known as junior witches, while D-rank and C-rank are intermediate witches.
Besides the differences in mana reserves, mana quality, and the number of mana properties, are there any other differences between the two?
Her magical reserves are currently difficult to determine. If her body were not on the verge of collapse, she would be confident in defeating any novice witch, whether it be F-rank or E-rank, even the one beside her who seems to be hiding her strength, Shui Lin.
Regarding the quality of magic, if we accept what Witch Zero said, a novice witch can only possess a maximum of three magical properties. Therefore, regardless of how many properties an intermediate witch can possess, it all points to one thing: the quality of an intermediate witch's magic is far superior to her own, allowing her restorative magical abilities to outweigh the damage caused by the imbalance of magical properties, thus completely repairing her body.
This proves that her magical power is inferior to that of a mid-level witch.
Luo Xi recalled the sword strike that had given her sudden enlightenment this morning.
In terms of both attack range and intensity, that sword strike should have reached the level of a D-rank witch.
This is her strongest attack method, and the only one that can reach the D-level, but it is not stable enough yet.
Only in a state of sudden enlightenment, specifically in the realm of swordsmanship, can one unleash that sword strike. And in the cultivation of swordsmanship, she has yet to find a perfect path for practice.
As for defense, she possesses the ability to walk in the world of consciousness, which is an application of the magical property of consciousness interference.
This near-instantaneous teleportation technique, as long as you don't get hit, is equivalent to invincible defense.
Although it was limited to the world of consciousness, she was currently in it! This geographical advantage was precisely why she believed herself to be invincible.
All things considered, her current strength in the world of consciousness could perhaps be described as near-D level.
Presumably, only by truly and completely establishing one's foundation on the path of cultivation and becoming a Foundation Establishment cultivator can one directly confront a D-level witch.
Furthermore, we need to find a way to address the cause of the body's disintegration.
"Shui Lin, can you stop them?" Luo Xi asked softly.
On the distant battlefield, the Zero Witch hovered in mid-air, surrounded by various debris, seemingly swept up by an invisible wind and contained within a few meters—it was telekinesis! The magical properties that the Zero Witch had stripped from other witches!
Wei Ying's attack had clearly been blocked and failed, while the Zero Witch was about to counterattack.
"Don't you want to listen to what you're saying..." Shui Lin glanced at her, "I'm just an F-rank witch."
"Don't joke around," Luo Xi replied expressionlessly. "You're definitely an E-rank. You held off Zero Witch for quite a while just now."
"She just didn't go all out," Shui Lin chuckled. "Whether it's you or me, in the eyes of Witch Zero and Wei Ying, we're just beginner witches."
"Your ability to control ice," Luo Xi calculated, "is perfect for countering Captain Wei Ying's flames. Ice melts into water, and it dissolves upon contact with fire; their attributes are mutually exclusive. How could we possibly fail to stop her?"
"Luo Xi," Shui Lin said with a light laugh, her eyes sparkling, "you haven't been a witch for long, so you can't look at some things with the same old perspective anymore."
Shui Lin blinked, flicked her finger, and a wisp of icy mist bloomed and dissipated at her fingertip. "Perhaps my ice can make Captain Wei Ying's fire burn even brighter."
"So that's how it is," Luo Xi realized, and fell into a moment of recollection.
"Speaking of which, Captain Wei Ying mentioned before that she received a mission to deal with the Zero Witch..." Luo Xi recalled, "Did you receive this mission?"
"I received it, but I didn't accept it. I'm no match for Witch Zero anyway..." Shui Lin shook her head. "Besides, why would I help ordinary people fight a witch?"
Luo Xi nodded in agreement.
As the two talked, they couldn't help but look towards the battlefield, where they saw the Zero Witch manipulating debris to form a tornado over a hundred meters high, sweeping towards Wei Ying. But before the debris could even get close to Wei Ying, it twisted and burned to ashes in the intense heat.
"Who do you think will win between them?" Seeing the battle at a stalemate, Luo Xi asked directly.
"Who will win?" Shui Lin's eyes flickered with anticipation. "How about we make another bet? We'll bet on who wins. If you lose... let me hug you, okay?"
"Sure, I didn't really want to hug you anyway," Luo Xi thought, since Wei Ying dared to accept this mission, she must have something to rely on. "I mainly want to prove my judgment of the battle situation. I bet Wei Ying will win."
"Speaking of which, you lost the bet before," Shui Lin smiled gently. "Let's keep our promise and let me kiss you. Come here."
Luo Xi didn't move, but as Shui Lin approached, she felt a chill for no reason, along with a sense of guilt towards Qiangwei.
What's causing this strange feeling?
It was like cheating on your partner with other women and almost getting caught red-handed.
It must have been Rose's confession about witnessing the primordial chaos that disturbed her mind. Does this mean that from now on, she will no longer have the freedom to interact normally with other witches?
She hasn't agreed to Rose's request yet.
Moreover, her World-Defying Group had just been established and was in dire need of manpower; there were hardly any people available to be dispatched within the organization.
If we could use the witch's cute and charming appearance to attract Shui Lin and develop her into a subordinate... it might not be so bad.
Luo Xi's mind raced, but as Shui Lin drew closer, she remained motionless.
Then she felt a gentle kiss on her cheek. Before she could savor the sensation, Luo Xi felt a tremor in her heart.
...Oh no, why do I feel like her future subordinate is going to be betrayed and killed by Rose sooner or later?
