Chapter 741 -469: Key of Devout Faith _2
From Daphne’s reaction, it could be seen that before this, she had not encountered a similar elf.
Does that mean Lis is special?
Is it because of the World Tree?
Lis was not sure. Daphne’s Legendary Talent determined that many things would certainly not go her way, and it was even possible that everything was under the scrutiny of the Elf Great Sage.
It was very likely that Daphne could be the next leader of Elf Land, but she would need a long time to grow unless there was some special opportunity.
Lis calmed his emotions and looked at Daphne, who was trying hard not far away, and decided to push harder.
Bullying a future Legendary Strongman seemed quite thrilling.
And now, the Daphne opposite Lis didn’t know that in just this short time, Lis had seen right through her.
Her biggest secret was also revealed.
Even so, the person across from her was still preparing to righteously beat her up; it was utterly lunatic.
“Are you ready? I’m starting.”
Lis, who had been dodging, suddenly stood still and said with a smile to Daphne.
The Moon Elf girl, upon hearing this, was taken aback. Her face changed as she was just happily tilting into an attack, and she quickly cast a new Divine Art to protect herself.
She did not want to be kicked around by Lis…
Even if she were to be kicked, she would still struggle!
“Just bring it on!”
Lose the battle, not the morale!
Daphne was quite experienced in this, as long as she didn’t give up, Adela, her sister and mentor, would go easier on her during training.
“So eager?”
Listening to her, Lis was somewhat amused.
He didn’t expect Daphne, whom he thought was a lazy fish during training, to be quite serious!
Then I’d better take it seriously too, after all, this is also fulfilling Adela’s instructions!
Lis’s body flashed, and he suddenly vanished from the spot.
Daphne was not surprised, having observed Lis dealing with kids, she knew Lis had entered Stealth State, waiting for an opportunity to strike hard.
Although Lis controlled his own power to be the same as Daphne’s, his experience and skills were not weakened.
Divine Art [Hidden Fog Technique]!
A light flashed over the Holy Scripture in Daphne’s hand, and a faint fog rose around her body, spreading about 10 meters.
Daphne’s figure also disappeared within this gray fog.
In the fog, Daphne gripped her pale white Holy Scripture, looking nervously around.
Being a priest, she wasn’t able to master the skill [Flash Dust] to pierce through Stealth, so she used this Divine Art to buy time.
Daphne didn’t expect that just relying on the Hidden Fog Technique alone could stop Lis’s attacks.
Although the Hidden Fog Technique could also block her vision, if someone approached Daphne, the movement of the fog would allow her to immediately detect the opponent’s position.
“Daphne, pretty clever, huh!”
Lis’s voice somehow reached Daphne’s ears.
Daphne’s body stiffened, and a sense of danger suddenly sprang up within her.
But this sense of crisis seemed to surge toward Daphne from all directions, making it impossible to discern the direction of the incoming attack.
Crack!
A harsh sound transmitted from behind her ear, and Daphne shuddered, noticing a fleeting sharpness in the churning fog and the Divine Art shield that had already shattered and dispersed into the air.
Daphne was well aware that Lis was holding back, having only broken through the outermost layer of the Divine Art shield; otherwise, Lis’s dagger would have been aimed directly at her neck.
Watching the swirling fog, Daphne realized she had overlooked something.
Lis was different from the others; even though the fog could also obstruct his vision, with the high perception of a Martial Monk, he could directly lock onto Daphne’s position.
Daphne first recast the Divine Art shield on herself, and just as she was preparing to use another skill, a gust of wind suddenly struck.
The fog enveloping Daphne’s body was quickly blown away under the gust.
As the fog cleared, Daphne saw Lis holding a Dagger in his right hand and a green Magic Wand in his left.
The Magic Wand glowed with magical light; clearly, the recent gust was an effect of Lis’s Spell.
Daphne remained silent; Lis often used multiple methods to break through the defenses of other elves while giving practical instruction.
This kind of targeted breakthrough could make the elves quickly realize their own weaknesses and deficiencies and pay attention to and guard against them.
But when faced with this situation personally, Daphne still felt somewhat awkward.
It was nothing like the pleasure she felt when watching other elves suffer.
“Here it comes!”
Seeing this, Lis put away his magic wand and sprinted toward Daphne.
This time he didn’t choose to enter stealth again, but quickly moved closer to Daphne’s body, preparing for close combat.
This was instructional combat, not a real fight.
The most effective training was to fight under different situations, exposing each other’s weaknesses.
Seeing Lis quickly approach, Daphne naturally understood what Lis intended to do.
Although she hadn’t much experience in real combat, she had already learned the necessary knowledge in Elf Land.
It was just that her combat consciousness couldn’t yet utilize the knowledge she had learned.
This was a capability that couldn’t be improved by practice alone; it had to be honed through continuous real combat.
In plain terms, it meant getting beaten up repeatedly.
Fifth Order Divine Skill [Stone Wall Technique]!
A yellow-brown stone wall suddenly appeared in front of Lis; Daphne’s timing wasn’t bad, coinciding exactly with the moment Lis was close and preparing to attack.
If it had been someone else, they might have lost control of their body and run straight into the stone wall.
But Lis, whose strength, agility, and endurance had all been enhanced, naturally had an exaggerated control over his body.
With a light touch on the wall with his left hand, he used it to leap into the air.
Daphne, seeing Lis suddenly appear above her, truly did not expect that.
Wouldn’t most people be stopped by the stone wall and then go around?
She had already laid Divine traps on both ends of the stone wall, but then Lis had suddenly jumped into the air and cleared the wall entirely.
Daphne quickly flipped through the Holy Scripture in her hands, trying to cast another Divine Art to stop Lis.
But her reaction was too slow; Lis had already landed from mid-air, his dagger flashing cold light as it stabbed toward Daphne.
Bang!
This time, the Divine Shield near Daphne merely resisted for a moment before shattering, and the cold light struck toward Daphne’s eyes.
Lis had no intention of stopping; he wanted to see what Daphne could do under these circumstances.
At that moment, the green gemstone necklace hanging around Daphne’s neck flickered briefly as if sensing something, then dimmed again.
“Ahh, stop!
Facing Lis’s attack, Daphne stumbled backward and fell to the ground.
She then closed her eyes tightly and grabbed the Holy Scripture, placing it over her head in a protective crouch.
“I’ve lost, I’ve lost!”
“I’m not doing this anymore!”
The blade forcefully halted on the Holy Scripture, then Lis’s somewhat helpless face appeared.
“What, already?”
“Giving up just like that?”
Lis looked at the crouching Daphne and said somewhat speechlessly.
Truth be told, Daphne’s performance was already much better than Lis had expected.
She had her own ideas during the fight, and her choice of skills was quite good.
It was evident she must have received very good training before.
But her lack of actual combat experience was a major flaw, likely also because she had always stayed in Elf Land, well-protected.
If faced with an equally matched or weaker opponent, Daphne might perform well.
But against an experienced adversary, it was easy to exploit Daphne’s flaws.
Most importantly, Daphne seemed to be too well-protected, ready to give up at the first sign of disadvantage.
That wouldn’t do at all!
It’s just this one issue, right?
Just get beaten up more, and it’ll be fine!
Daphne, watching Lis ready for more, began to turn pale.
Don’t you come over here!
