Chapter 122: Dekan Seemed To Be Completely Countered
Isabel observed Dekan's expected change in expression and felt extreme pleasure in that moment.
You thought you were clever, Dekan.
She had prepared countermeasures against Dekan's cards long ago.
Although using a tier 6 spell to deal with a tier 1 summon might be a great shame, she had to use the Purification Designator to completely resolve Captain Durrkan.
Otherwise, with her hatred towards Dekan, he would use Captain Durrkan without any restrictions to pull her indefinitely!
Only by completely getting rid of the damn “Taunt” debuff could she fundamentally break Dekan's tactics.
Additionally, when Isabel was about to capture the Ice Princess and then got silenced by Dekan, she didn't dare to easily trade off the strange abnormal state of "Gag" with the Purification Designator.
Because she was afraid that if she designated "Gag," Dekan would immediately give her a bunch of similar different mutated abnormal states.
But "Taunt," this mainstream crowd control debuff, was different.
As long as it was banned, no matter how many Captain Durrkans or similar cards Dekan had, he could no longer taunt Isabel!
Isabel was waiting for this opportunity for Dekan to relax his vigilance!
She wanted Dekan to think he could aggro pull her and then take Dekan down in one go!
Although Dekan's pupils revealed panic towards the card "Purification Designator,” he quickly reacted at the fastest speed and activated "Ice Block" in panic.
Frost filled the air.
Dekan's body was instantly wrapped in ice, sealed into an ice sculpture.
"Ice Block" could freeze oneself and, within 30 seconds, gain a frost shield that could not be shattered by attacks below tier 7 intensity.
This card would be shattered by Isabel's tier 7 attack, but it was just right to use it to block Isabel's sudden assault.
Or rather, Dekan was forced to resort to this last resort as he had no other options.
Seeing Dekan trapping himself, Isabel coldly raised the dagger in her hand and waved it in the air towards Dekan.
With just this swing, Isabel's powerful martial skills were displayed.
Immediately, several streams of condensed air formed visible blade marks in the atmosphere. They tightly enveloped Dekan's surroundings! Dekan felt the frozen protection around him being cut by countless invisible blades.
"Crack!"
Then, cracks like a spider's web spread across the icy barrier.
Suddenly, Dekan’s "Ice Block" shattered.
Dekan widened his eyes, seemingly not expecting his “Ice Block” to be dispelled so easily.
With the defense broken, even Croix couldn't make it in time to rescue Dekan.
Having just exited the “Ice Block,” Dekan staggered, neither standing firm nor falling to the ground.
He discovered that his body immediately became immobile.
He couldn't even lift his feet, let alone make any evasive movements!
[Shadow Restraint]
[Category: Spell Card]
[Rarity: Purple Rare]
[Tier: 5]
[Effect: After a brief casting, immobilizes a single target within the range for 1 second; the tier difference between the parties will affect the duration of the restraint.]
[Note: A routine work from Shadow Cardinal Minos.]
Isabel used this high tier restraint magic to lock down Dekan's movements.
Although such unreasonable strong control had an extremely short duration, its duration was able to be extended significantly against low tier targets.
"Who gave you the courage to challenge me?" Saying this, Isabel's eyes flashed with a hint of coldness as she raised her hand again, preparing to swing the dagger towards Dekan.
But just as her invisible strike, which had just cut through the Ice Block, was about to reach Dekan's body, she seemed to be amusingly observing Dekan's desperate expression.
The dagger stopped in mid-air.
"Hehe." Isabel chuckled mysteriously, shaking her head.
"Your acting skills are indeed good; you can continue to act with even more despair. I guess you're laughing inside, right? But trust me, I'll soon turn your despair into reality." Isabel withdrew her hand, sneering.
She slightly turned her head, glancing at Croix standing in another direction.
Croix seemed to be preparing to activate some magic card when he was keenly locked onto by Isabel's gaze.
There was a momentary panic on his face, unable to conceal the realization that his plan had been exposed.
"Your little tricks end here." Isabel looked coldly at Dekan, as if pronouncing his fate.
She knew she had to be wary of Croix behind her using "Forced Dispel" on her.
"Forced Dispel" could remove her "Pain Nullification."
As long as Croix used "Forced Dispel" when Isabel attacked Dekan, Dekan, already equipped with "Crown of Suffering" (3x pain, one time invulnerability) and "Cursed Doll" (2x pain feedback), could summon the "Ruined Poet" (10x pain) to achieve a decisive blow with a 60x pain feedback.
However, "Pain Nullification" was a continuous status spell, with no cooldown time or duration limit. Even if dispelled by force, she could quickly reapply it.
In other words, Croix had to seize a momentary opportunity to make the previous tactics successful.
Regardless of how things played out, Isabel just wanted to laugh. The two naive boys were so arrogant that they played out of control.
After fighting in the Shadow Worlds, they actually thought they could confront the high-ranking members of the Resurgence Church in the real world.
Such easily detectable tactics, like playing house, could only be used to bully ordinary followers.
Now it seemed that there was a stalemate among the three. Isabel pointed the dagger at Dekan, while Croix held "Forced Dispel," ready to use it on Isabel at any moment. Once Isabel attacked Dekan, Croix would dispel Isabel's "Pain Nullification."
But as long as Isabel didn't make a move, both Dekan and Croix were in a helpless situation. After all, they lacked the opportunity for proactive attacks.
Dekan had only two ways to actively cause a 60x pain attack.
The first was a 60x heartache attack, but this required Dekan to prepare for a relatively long time.
Croix didn't know if Dekan was ready, so he dared not hastily use "Forced Dispel" and let Dekan follow up with a 60x heartache attack.
Moreover, since there were no signs of Dekan's move, Croix couldn't pinpoint the moment when Dekan would actively release the 60x heartache attack to use "Forced Dispel" and remove the "Pain Nullification" momentarily.
If Dekan gave any signal to Croix, Isabel would react even faster.
So, using a heartache attack to deal with Isabel was almost impossible to succeed!
Dekan had only the second method left if he wanted to win - he must successfully activate his spell card “Mind Collision” the instant when Croix used "Forced Dispel!”
