The past was built upon collecting unique characteristics.

Faced with the attack of four knights, Morian was instantly isolated and helpless.

He quickly got up and created another clone, sending it to attract the attention of the two retribution knights, while he dealt with the two guardian knights.

This army can not only share the damage they suffer, but also share the abilities and characteristics they possess.

As a guardian knight approached, wielding a massive shield and a dazzling two-handed greatsword, Morian swiftly conjured a flaming greatsword in his hand and swept it forward with all his might.

Bang!

The flaming greatsword was blocked by the shield, but the energy still caused the guardian knight to pause and take a few steps back.

Before they could catch their breath, another guardian knight attacked.

Morian kept backflipping, awkwardly dodging the dense, rain-like slashes, while summoning Gray Rat to try and restrain his opponent.

However, whenever the gray rat appeared, it was easily killed by the illusory soldiers responsible for ranged attacks. Not only did it not have much of an interfering effect, but its splitting also rapidly consumed his spiritual energy.

At this moment, Morian was like a trapped beast caught in a pack of wolves, passively dodging around on the training field while constantly inflicting new wounds on his body.

The enemy's attacks came from all directions, and they were always able to cover each other. Let alone launching a powerful counterattack, just surviving in this "human wave tactic" was already a big problem.

Although this is Diana's inner world, dying here wouldn't be a big deal; in the real world, he would at most suffer some psychological trauma.

However, if we accept our fate, it would mean that all our previous efforts have been in vain, and the entrustment has failed.

At the edge of the training ground, Morian, who had been forced into a corner, seized the opportunity and suddenly leaped onto the guardian knight's shoulder.

Using this "stepping stone," he quickly leaped into the air, his dark brown eyes turning deep.

In the next instant, countless dark, viscous tentacles emerged from all the shadowy areas of the training ground, binding all the knights present, including the distant phantom soldiers and Diana.

At the same time, a tentacle dragged him through the air, heading straight for Diana in the center of the formation.

Morian casually tossed down an alchemical artifact, but it was intercepted in mid-air by a quick-thinking "Punishment Knight" with precise sword energy.

Moreover, the tentacles had already been severed by the warriors skilled in melee combat, and the ranged soldiers began to throw weapons made of spirit energy.

In an instant, countless spears and arrows blocked the area above.

Just as his body was about to be pierced, Morian once again activated the power of "Berserk Nature," allowing a layer of shadow to cover the surface of his body.

The weapon pierced through his body, but Morian was unharmed. He snapped his fingers, and several "cages" made of flames instantly appeared on the training ground.

These "cages" are formed from fire elemental energy, making them difficult to affect with physical attacks. Two to three soldiers are imprisoned in one of these "cages".

But the most critical problem remains: the troublesome "damage sharing" issue has yet to be resolved.

He once risked a counterattack and hit a knight's breastplate, but the knight only swayed slightly, and the damage was clearly spread out.

In other words, attempting to eliminate any of the phantoms here is an extremely difficult and counterproductive endeavor.

Unless the damage exceeds the army's tolerance limit, victory can be achieved through a sudden burst of fire.

Diana, as the core, did not move from her spot. Instead, Ronan's phantom quickly blocked her way, his lightning-infused longsword shining brightly.

Clang—! Sizzle!

The Rainbow Illusion Blade met the lightning longsword head-on, and several spiderweb-like bolts of lightning instantly burst forth around the two weapons.

The phantom Ronan skillfully parried the short sword, then suddenly swung the lightning longsword horizontally.

Amidst the crackling of electricity, the countless slashes witnessed that night reappeared at this moment.

Morian maintained the shadow protection around his body, choosing to take the attack head-on and attempting to "absorb energy" using the properties of the "Rainbow Phantom Blade".

Although he successfully "absorbed" some of the energy, the force, along with the collective "synergy" bonus, still sent him flying.

Morian flew backward like a kite with a short string, but fortunately a clever tentacle caught his body in mid-air. Even so, he could hardly adjust his posture while in mid-air.

Just as he was about to hit the ground, he braced himself with one hand, rolled several times on the ground, and barely managed to steady himself before getting up on his knees.

Looking around, Diana still stood in the center of the formation like a Valkyrie. Although the remaining soldiers were bound by the "Cage of Flames," it was only a matter of time before the "Cage" broke.

The clones they created had already been killed by the two Retribution Knights, and the interference and control from the gray rats and tentacles were not very effective in the coordinated attack.

To make matters worse, the spiritual energy was running out. After such a long battle, even with the support of two major endurance abilities, the spiritual energy was almost depleted.

We can't afford to waste any more time; we must quickly find a way to break the "damage sharing" mechanism... One thought after another flashed through Morian's mind.

The legion's power comes from Diana's "will," and they are connected by spirituality. Could this "connection" involve some kind of mystical "sharing"?

Although it's unclear whether influencing Diana's mind can break this connection, it's the only method we can try.

A rough and untested idea quickly took shape in his mind, and Morian struggled to his feet, intending to make one last attempt.

This method combines the guiding aura of "abundance" with the "touch of evil thoughts" that can interfere with the mind.

He wanted to infuse these two diametrically opposed forces into that "network of connections".

The best experimental target, naturally, was the Ronan phantom that guarded her side, a manifestation of Diana's will.

He was chosen because he has the highest rank among all the phantoms, and if he were to cause any disturbance, he could have the greatest impact on the entire team.

This is a desperate measure, and it's also the most likely approach to succeed at present.

Just as Morian was about to take a desperate gamble, the scene before him made him stop his risky move.

The knights on the training ground, including the phantom soldiers behind Diana, suddenly trembled in unison.

The pale golden spiritual threads connecting them were like candles flickering in the wind, their light quickly becoming weak and uncertain.

The pale golden spiritual threads connecting them gradually dimmed and began to fluctuate unstablely.

Just like before, the time limit for maintaining this power has expired? Morian was slightly surprised.

Indeed, summoning such a large "team" was a huge burden for Diana herself, and naturally it couldn't be sustained for long.
