Generally speaking, only long-lived species could break through to the Legendary level, such as the half-elf Grinton. Although humans grew fast, their biggest weakness was their short lifespan. Even for professionals, there were very few who could live past the age of 150.
That was why there were only a handful of people who could become Legendary in the human world for thousands of years. Even if there were, they had a special bloodline. For example, the ancestor of the Kail family, the Legendary Hero Kite, or the Pope of Light who had the bloodline of angels.
So when they heard Frey say that Beta used to be a Legendary, their eyes almost popped out of their sockets.
It was common knowledge that a Legendary-professional could easily deal with an elite army of about 300 people. If it was a spellcaster, a Legendary could even destroy a small city with a wave of his hand.
Besides, Frey had just said that Beta was only one step away from becoming a Demigod!
If these words were spread outside, it would definitely scare a lot of people. Nowadays, the highest level of power for professionals was Legendary. Even dragons could only reach the Legendary level. As for Demigods … it was already beyond the imagination of ordinary people. Apart from the Goddess of Magic who became a god, no one else in history had ever tried to become a Demigod.
Liang Lidong looked at Frey and said, "It doesn't matter if I'm weak or not. But you … I remember that although you were a bit eccentric back then, you were still a good person. How did you become like this? Your body is your direct bloodline now. Can you really do it?"
"300 years is enough to change a lot of things, including personality, good and evil," Frey said without regret. "I'm not like you, nor am I like Grinton. I have a long life, but since I've seen what high-level combat power is like, there's no way I'm willing to be an ordinary person anymore. "
Liang Lidong understood that this was the difference between a dream and reality. In the dream, Frey … or Theodore. With the help of the Round Table Knight System, he was already close to becoming a Legendary. He was already a powerhouse who was close to the Legendary level, but in reality, he was still an ordinary professional.
The difference between the two was like the difference between heaven and earth. Although he could obtain countless knowledge from the Dream World, it also required time to digest and train, and for human professions, what they lacked was precisely time.
But understanding was one thing. Liang Lidong didn't agree with Frey's actions. In his opinion, Theodore was worse than a beast for attacking his own kin. Moreover, the people he had swapped souls with were probably no more than two years old. After all, the weaker the soul, the easier it was for the soul transfer spell to succeed.
Liang Lidong let out a long sigh, "Frey. Or maybe you should call me Theodore. I think you can die here. But before I kill you. I have a question for you. Who is your master? "
"You think I'll tell you?" Frey laughed so hard that her breasts were surging. "Also, Beta, do you think that you and three weak boys and girls can beat me?"
"We'll only know after we try!"
As soon as Liang Lidong's voice trailed off. Two Magic Scrolls appeared in his hands. He tossed them into the air, but before they could activate, they were cut in half by a gigantic longsword.
After Frey attacked and destroyed Liang Lidong's Magic Scroll, Liang Lidong's Magic Scroll was destroyed. She swooped down from the air at an extremely fast speed with her giant sword, slashing at Liang Lidong's head.
A Great Swordsman's attack was strong, even stronger than a Berserker's. More importantly, they were also very fast. Frey's giant sword carried the momentum of wind and thunder. Just as it was about to slash Liang Lidong's head, she suddenly tilted to the side because a long sword suddenly appeared below her body.
If she continued to fall, the longsword would have pierced her first.
A Great Swordsman was very mobile. She forcibly twisted her body in the air and swept to the side. As soon as she landed, she saw a black shadow rushing over with a swoosh.
Kail's Brave's Charge and Nimble Movement were two skills that made him as fast as a Great Swordsman.
Frey snorted and swung her longsword, forcing Kail back a few steps. She was about to take advantage of the situation to attack Kail, but Liang Lidong was already in front of her.
Once again, the two swords collided. Frey took half a step back, while Liang Lidong took five steps back. This wasn't surprising. Although Frey looked very weak, she was a Great Swordsman and naturally wasn't weak. Moreover, her level was also very high, at Level 11. It wasn't surprising that she was able to push back Liang Lidong with just the force generated from her defense.
If it was a one-on-one, Liang Lidong's current state would be a huge flaw. Unfortunately, this was a group battle.
Frey naturally wouldn't let go of such an opportunity to attack, but unfortunately, Kail was still on the side. He shouted and his longsword suddenly emitted blue flames, stabbing at Frey.
Frey had no choice but to withdraw her sword to defend. A great opportunity to attack was wasted just like that.
This back and forth actually happened in an instant. It wasn't until then that Emma and Alice, who were pure spellcasters, reacted.
As spellcasters, their reaction speed was relatively slow. At this time, Frey's three guards also reacted. When they were about to go forward to help, Emma and Alice both attacked at the same time.
As the Saintess of the Storm Shrine, Emma wasn't good at pure offensive magic, but she was more familiar with many blocking spells. However, this was a cave in the mountain, and it was very troublesome to use magic to condense wind. After all, the space was small, and it wasn't easy to generate rapid airflow.
Therefore, she only instantaneously cast a Wind Wall Technique to block in front of the three guards, temporarily obstructing their movements.
Alice, on the other hand, began to summon the wisps.
Both Wind Spellcasters and Elven Summoners were professions that required terrain conditions. In a narrow space, Wind Spellcasters couldn't condense powerful wind at all, and Elven Summoners couldn't transform trees into treants. Therefore, their combat power was greatly reduced.
Even so, it was more than enough for the two of them to deal with three regular professions.
The three guards were blocked by Emma. When they were about to bypass the Wind Wall, the wisps that Alice summoned came out in groups … These little creatures that were condensed by natural magic looked similar to humans, but they were only 20 centimeters long. They had a pair of transparent wings that were similar to dragonflies on their backs, which looked very cute.
But in fact, these little creatures were one of the three races in the Elf Forest that couldn't be messed with.
One or two wisps could only use defensive spells, and their combat power wasn't very high. However, the problem was that once they came out, they would come in groups that ranged from dozens to hundreds of them. When their numbers reached a certain level, they could use the ability of magic resonance to cast spells that were relatively powerful.
This was a type of collective intelligence.
Alice summoned almost a hundred wisps at once.
The Fairies quickly drowned the three guards, and a few screams could be heard. When the Fairies dispersed, they found that the three guards' bodies were covered with needle-sized wounds, and their faces were green. It was obvious that they had been poisoned.
Their bodies were still convulsing, and if they weren't treated, they wouldn't live more than an hour.
These wisps didn't directly use magic, but used the small weapons that they brought with them to attack. For ordinary people, those things were poisonous needles. It wouldn't be a problem to be hit by one or two needles, but hundreds of needles at once would be unbearable even for professionals.
On the other side, Frey saw the situation from the corner of her eye, and her relaxed expression immediately turned serious. Kail waved his weapon of blue flames and attacked again, but this time he was sent flying and rolled on the ground.
Frey no longer held back. After she sent Kail flying with one blow, she immediately pounced on Liang Lidong. But this time, Liang Lidong had learned his lesson from last time, and a scroll was directly triggered the moment he left his hand.
Two purple snakes pounced at Frey as if they were alive. She actually changed directions twice in midair in a rather strange and completely contrary to physics. After dodging the electric snakes, she pounced on Liang Lidong.
But before she got close, a strange gust of wind directly blew at her back.
At this time, there was a rapidly spinning wind ball in Emma's right hand. It carried such a strong wind that the air in the entire cave became turbulent.
"Eye of the Storm!" Frey looked at Emma and said with a smile, "As expected of the Holy Lady of the Temple of Storms. I didn't expect that the sacred artifact Eye of the Storm was with you. I've underestimated you. No wonder Beta asked you to be his companions. You're indeed capable and have good potential. "
"I'm no match for the four of you right now, but I'm leaving." Frey stood at the entrance of the cave. "Beta, I know you can teleport. Even if I ask someone to drive the ship away, you can still return to land. But don't ever set foot on my territory again, or you'll definitely become mine. "
After saying that, Frey laughed and left. As a Great Swordsman, she was very fast. In the blink of an eye, she disappeared into the darkness at the entrance of the cave.
Kail wanted to chase after her, but Liang Lidong stopped him, shook his head, and snapped his fingers.
"You stay here," said Liang Lidong. "What happens next is between me and him. After all, he's someone I brought out, and there's a bond between us. Even if I'm going to kill him, I have to do it myself. "
Emma said worriedly, "But she's very strong. You're no match for her right now. Also, she knows you very well."
"She's familiar with the old me, not the current me." Liang Lidong smiled confidently. "I'm indeed no match for a Great Swordsman in a cave, but it's different now that she's out of the cave. In a complicated environment, I can carry out abilities that are much stronger than you think. " "
Kail clapped his hands. "Fog Magic! "
Liang Lidong smiled and said, "No, it is time for rain."
