Kevin turned to look at Bai Xiaowen and warned him coldly, "Behave yourself and don't try anything funny! If my spell fails because of your interference, I'd rather break my oath and kill you first! "

Bai Xiaowen waved his hands. "Master Kevin, don't worry. I have a bottom line. We're in the same boat now. If the boat capsizes, it won't do either of us any good."

It'd be weird if you had a bottom line!

Kevin snorted and waved his magic wand. Cryptic syllables came out of his mouth one after another. As he moved, a surge of magic surged around him.

Bai Xiaowen hid in a corner and watched the show. However, he was also a little nervous.

Kevin and Gloria were both question marks in Bai Xiaowen's eyes. He couldn't detect the difference in their abilities. He could only make guesses based on their statuses and estimated that their abilities were about the same. Kevin's reaction as if he was facing a great enemy also proved this point.

According to Bai Xiaowen's script, Kevin had to protect him, a burden with basically zero combat power, while Gloria had four combat nuns to help her! There was no chance of winning this battle. Kevin's best choice was to return the soul stone to Bai Xiaowen and increase his abilities before trying to escape.

However, Kevin had the advantage of being in the dark. He was staking everything to prepare a trump card. If he could severely injure Gloria, there was a possibility of wiping out the opponent.

"If only my innate gift of insight could see their abilities," Bai Xiaowen thought to himself.

Not far away, Gloria was leading the four combat nuns to advance. Suddenly, her expression changed as she felt a strong threat!

"Be careful!"

Gloria only had time to say these two words. After all, she was a knight and didn't have strong senses. If it were a mage of the same level, they would have already sensed the abnormal changes in the magic energy.

Kevin pointed his magic wand at the tombstone. The strong magic energy made his black robe flutter in the wind. It was full of vigor!

"Dragon's Breath!"

Behind Kevin, a huge shadow of a dragon's head suddenly appeared. The dragon opened its mouth and a huge cone-shaped flame poured out, enveloping Gloria and the others!

Bai Xiaowen, who was hiding behind Kevin, felt his hair burn. It was enough to see how terrifying Kevin's move was!

The raging flames lasted for a full ten seconds before slowly extinguishing. The originally frozen ground was scorched black by the heat.

Bai Xiaowen looked over. On the scorched ground lay the corpses of three combat nuns.

Gloria was half-kneeling on the ground with a two-handed greatsword in front of her. With a cracking sound, the middle section of the two-handed sword was filled with cracks, and then it broke apart.

It was this sword that had blocked most of the dragon breath for Gloria.

In a hurry, Gloria could only protect herself and had no time to care about others. Fortunately, a combat's Gloria and the other nun's's's's's.

However, the surviving combat nun's' situation was not optimistic. Her tight nun's' robes were torn and burned by the flames, revealing a large part of her body.

"It's settled!" Bai Xiaowen finally calmed down. He could see that Gloria still had her strength. Against Kevin, who had just used his big move, she had a higher chance of winning.

Kevin was panting, his face extremely gloomy. Even a rookie like Bai Xiaowen could see who had a higher chance of winning. Kevin, the powerful chief mage, of course knew better.

His original goal was to kill Gloria with a surprise attack, or at least severely injure her. That was the only way Kevin could win. But now, it was all for naught.

Gloria slowly stood up and pulled out the rapier at her waist. The half-naked combat sister behind her stood up as well, both of their eyes glowing with hatred.

Kevin took a deep breath and slapped the soul stone into Bai Xiaowen's hand. "Hide! I'll call for reinforcements. Watch your mouth! "He cast a Slow Landing Spell on himself and floated down from the top of the tomb.

As soon as he landed, Kevin raised his wand towards the sky.

Arcane Beacon!

A blue laser shot into the sky and landed on Kevin's head. It was extremely bright and dazzling.

Bai Xiaowen sneaked down from the top of the tomb. He pushed open the dilapidated tomb's door and jogged along the tomb's corridor.

Notification:

"Mission Progress: Unseal 1/1, Recharge 100%."

"Mission: Black Soul Stone completed. Evaluation: Perfect. "

"Do you want to change your class?"

After Bai Xiaowen clicked 'Yes', the soul stone, which had already turned black, shot out a large number of black light spots and entered Bai Xiaowen's body.

"The soul energy of the Black Soul Stone is resonating with you …"

"Soul Resonance requires 600 seconds of preparation time."

Bai Xiaowen cursed inwardly.

"I'm afraid this is the aftereffect of completing the S- Level Mission!"

If the soul fire needed to recharge the soul stone had been collected by Bai Xiaowen himself, then the class change would have been completed in one go. Soul Resonance would not have taken so long.

Bai Xiaowen smelled a dangerous aura. He abruptly did a forward roll and rushed into a large tomb chamber. Then, he ran along the mottled wooden stairs.

With a clanging sound, the two short swords struck empty air. Then, a slender and graceful figure quietly walked out from the shadows.

"So it's you … You disguised yourself as a combat nun!"

Bai Xiaowen's pupils contracted. The person who appeared was the guard of the Imperial Envoy, Elliot, whom he had killed. She was a Level-3 Elite, Sword Dancer, Lila Redleaf!

Lila Redleaf was also in a sorry state. There were burn marks all over her body, and her snow-white thighs were faintly discernible. That's right. She was the only combat nun who had survived hiding behind Gloria.

"Murderer, I will take your head and present it to Lord Glantis!" Lila Redleaf was full of hatred for Bai Xiaowen.

Bai Xiaowen quickly realized that Lila Redleaf's appearance here was not a coincidence.

On one hand, this was the aftereffect of Bai Xiaowen completing the A- Level Mission, "A New Mission." If he had chosen to face them head-on, killing his way into the camp with the two Viking hunks and slaughtering both Lara Redleaves and Elliot, there wouldn't have been such an opportunity for revenge.

However, Bai Xiaowen did not have the strength to fight head-on. With his 20 HP, he would only be cannon fodder if he appeared in a head-on battle.

On the other hand, if Bai Xiaowen did not stay in Pointed Helmet City and immediately went north to complete the Black Soul Stone recharging mission after receiving news of the Frozen Tomb, then Lila Redleaf would not have the ability to investigate his whereabouts. Revenge would be even more impossible. With the Vikings' antipathy toward the Elves, Lila Redleaf alone in the North would be lured into a wolf's den if she asked for directions.
