I'm really not a Sanctuary Warlock.

The ground on both sides of the ravine surged simultaneously, transforming into two giant waves of stone that attacked Karthus from both sides.

Karthus did not dodge, but instead raised his staff high.

"Dissolve".

A ring of dark purple pulses erupted from the tip of the staff.

The moment the stone tide came into contact with the pulse, it was like ice meeting the scorching sun, beginning to disintegrate and melt from the outside in.

Two waves of stone, each weighing several tons, vanished in less than a second.

But Eve's goal was never Shishio.

The instant Karthus raised his head to unleash the pulse, Eve had already rushed up the edge of the ravine.

The longsword pierced straight into Karthus's chest.

Karthus didn't have time to retract his staff to defend.

He could only dodge to the side, the tip of the sword grazing his ribs, dark purple blood splattering out, the earth power attached to Eve's sword seeping into his body through the wound.

"Hiss," Karthus hissed in pain.

He raised his hand and slapped Eve on the shoulder.

Terrifying abyssal magic poured in.

Eve was sent flying and crashed into the stone wall she had set up.

"Cough..." Eve coughed up blood as she landed.

But a hint of a smile played on her lips.

However, Lynn was extremely anxious at this moment.

He stood through a crack in the stone wall, peering inside, where Eve's injuries were steadily worsening.

Karthus, on the other hand, only suffered minor injuries.

If this trend continues...

"Heh, not bad." Karthus clutched the wound under his ribs, which was rapidly healing in the dark purple light. "That was indeed a good strike, but... that's all."

He raised his staff and aimed it at Eve, who was still unsteady on her feet.

"ended."

A thick, dark purple beam of light shot out from the staff, moving so fast that the air didn't even have time to vibrate.

Eve had just looked up.

That's too late.

“Eve!” Lynn blurted out.

But he knew his shout was meaningless.

Then, something unexpected happened.

A stone slab sprang up from the ground and landed right in front of Eve.

As the stone slab shattered, Eve's body was propelled three meters to the side by another rock that bounced off her feet.

The beam of light passed through the spot where she had just stood, blasting a huge hole in the stone wall behind her.

She managed to save herself in an almost impossible situation thanks to her exceptional control over the ground.

But the shockwave still reached Lynn, who was in a crevice in the stone wall.

The blast wave instantly sent him flying.

“Lynn!” Anna called out urgently.

Eve heard the sound.

She looked up from where she had fallen and saw Lynn flying backward through the hole in the stone wall.

The next instant, her foot lightly touched the ground.

A flat stone slab rose from beneath Lynn and steadily lifted him to a safe position.

"..."

Lynn was taken aback for a moment, then expressed his gratitude directly.

That warm feeling surged from the depths of Eve's soul again, even more pronounced than the first time. The rise in her sanity allowed the cracks in her soul caused by the evil god's corruption to begin to heal automatically.

Those powerful moves that used to be used sparingly can now... seem to be used more freely.

“Continue,” Eve said softly, raising her longsword again.

Karsas narrowed his eyes.

He sensed it too.

Eve's aura is growing stronger.

Chapter 150 Extraterrestrial Objects

Eve's fighting style has undergone a significant change.

She played conservatively before, carefully considering the cost of each move, but now...

"The indestructible city wall!"

At the same moment that the fourth stone wall was shattered by Calthus, a fifth, even thicker stone wall was rebuilt on the same spot.

"Earth-shattering!"

The earth beneath their feet seemed to turn over like a giant beast, the entire ground was lifted up and transformed into dozens of stone pillars with a diameter of more than two meters, which bombarded Karthus from all directions.

"A body of rock!"

Rock-like patterns appeared on Eve's skin, and Karthus's magical beam struck her shoulder, leaving only a faint white mark.

She is opening a large window.

He attacked one move after another, sparing no effort.

Lynn could tell that Eve hadn't dared to fight like that before because her sanity was too low; she would break down if she used it too much.

But now, she no longer has that concern.

On the battlefield, Eve and Karthus's battle became increasingly intense.

Karthus also sensed something was wrong; instead of getting weaker, Overwatch was getting stronger.

His rib wound had barely healed when Eve's sword was already at him.

"Whoa!"

The staff blocked the attack, the sword blade gliding across the staff, leaving a trail of sparks.

Karthus retreated, tapping the void with his staff to release a dark purple net of light that enveloped Eve.

Eve didn't dodge. The ground beneath her feet rose up to form a ramp, and she used it to soar into the sky, leaping over the net of light, her longsword slashing down from the air.

"broken!"

Karthus raised his staff to block, but the force of this strike far exceeded that of the previous ones.

His arms jerked violently, and the ground beneath his feet was pressed into a crater by the immense force.

"..." Karthus's expression finally turned serious.

In the brief moment when the two separated, a piece of gravel was propelled toward Lynn by the shockwave.

The stone wasn't big, and it wasn't moving too fast; Anna had even raised her staff to block it.

But Eve was faster than her.

A stone pillar rose from the ground, gently turning the gravel aside.

So natural, so casual, as if done offhand.

Lynn felt that sense of security and protection once again.

Eve's body trembled again.

Her sanity has recovered to 34 points.

Eve gritted her teeth and focused all her attention on the enemy in front of her.

“You…” Karthus finally frowned. “What exactly happened?”

He could see that Eve was getting stronger, and at an extremely unreasonable speed.

Within minutes, her attack power increased by at least 20%, and her defensive methods became much more effective than before.

This is completely abnormal.

Over the next few minutes, Eve's power continued to grow.

"enough."

Karsas stopped what he was doing.

He stood in the center of the square, his dark purple magic surging like flames.

His expression changed from solemn to indifferent.

"Since I can't kill you in this space."

He raised his staff, and the dark purple sphere at the top of the staff suddenly swelled to three times its original size.

"Then let's go somewhere else."

Lynn's Eye of Truth is issuing a frantic warning.

Karthus's staff slammed heavily onto the ground.

“Domain stripping”.

The whole world shattered before Lynn's eyes.

Lynn felt his body being pulled into the void by an irresistible force.

Dizziness, weightlessness, the world is spinning.

When his vision returned, the sight he saw made his heart clench.

The floor is made of transparent glass that stretches to the horizon.

Looking up, the sky was no longer the pale blue of early morning, but a chaotic dark purple, as if the abyss itself was hanging upside down overhead.

Eve stood ten meters away from him, her feet on the glass floor, her expression showing shock.

She crouched down and touched the glass beneath her feet with her palm.

"The earth has disappeared."

"Do you understand now?" Karthus hovered in mid-air, looking down at the three of them.

"The power of the Watchers comes from the earth," Karthus said casually. "Then I only need to take you to a place without earth, and your power will be like a tree without roots."

"Who says only the earth has earth elements?"

Eve interrupted him.

Karthus's smile froze. He sensed something falling from the chaotic, dark purple void high above.

“The essence of the power of the earth,” Eve raised her head, her gaze piercing through the chaotic void above, “is the very foundational element that constitutes the entire world.”

She raised her longsword, the tip pointing to the sky.

"And in the void... countless fragments from ancient times float."

Lynn felt the dark purple sky above him trembling, as if some incredible behemoth was tearing through the spatial barrier and forcibly entering this realm.

Karthus's expression finally changed.

"Impossible, this is my domain, and external matter cannot enter."

A loud roar interrupted him.

The sky cracked open.
