Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong Chapter 2709 1488: Fierce Battle and Twists and Turns (Part 2)

"Young human, what do we do next?"

The pink-hooded newcomer displayed a tense look on her pale features. While channeling power into the Absolute Defense Barrier, she wrinkled her forehead and inquired, obviously confused and completely rattled.

Not only the pink-hooded figure, but also Frank and the rest who had just been freed showed identical anxious faces, all turning their gazes toward Leo Ray.

"We have to break the link between the foe and the Black Fog right away, otherwise victory slips from our grasp."

Leo Ray gave a nod to the team, his eyes fixed on the massive shadow dominating the shadows in front.

"But precisely how can we achieve that? I attempted spatial warping earlier, yet the fog refuses to be severed!"

The pink-hooded figure's face grew even more frantic as she pressed the question once more.

Staring at the worried expression of the pink-hooded figure, Leo Ray found himself momentarily speechless.

She spoke the truth; earlier, he had directed Sheila and Little Jie to strike at the demon's tie to the Black Fog, but it proved useless.

"We can't just linger here awaiting doom—let's give it another shot."

Leo Ray softly tapped Little Jie's shoulder, urging her to sustain the Absolute Defense Barrier, then signaled the others with a nod.

With Little Jie in her small elf shape resting on his shoulder, every motion from him shifted the whole Absolute Defense Barrier along.

At Leo Ray's command, the group readied themselves to act.

"Advance!"

Following Leo Ray's order, the team soared forward shielded by the Absolute Defense Barrier, beginning their approach to the demon.

Their aim remained straightforward: target the junction linking the enemy to the Black Fog.

"Mere pointless resistance!"

Witnessing their advance, the demon's warped spider visage turned even more audacious, summoning additional acidic dark orbs that plummeted from every angle without warning.

"Strike now!"

As they neared the colossal beast, Leo Ray and his allies unleashed their abilities: bolts of Thunder Light, twists of space, blasts of elemental magic bullets, spears of bone, and arrows of bone all launched in sequence, hurtling at the adversary.

"Haha, that barely registers as a graze."

The demon, observing this, made no effort to evade, allowing the strikes to fizzle harmlessly against its enormous frame.

Next, it lifted its talons, swiping viciously in their direction.

A deafening crash echoed, shaking the vast hall to its core. When the group glanced upward, they saw clear fissures spreading across their Absolute Defense Barrier, its surface fading noticeably.

"Apologies, Lord, the enemy's blow packs too much force."

Little Jie appeared ashen, her slender shoulders quivering.

"This isn't on you; I acted too rashly."

Grinding his teeth, Leo Ray directed the team to pull back. Yet the foe offered no respite, unleashing further slashes and acidic dark orbs in rapid pursuit, which battered the weakening Absolute Defense Barrier until it was covered in fractures, teetering on total collapse.

In that instant, the entire group felt ensnared in an endless swamp, their every effort only hastening their downfall.

Right when despair gripped them, a surprise emerged: following their final assault, the enemy's bond with the Black Fog had noticeably weakened, its presence even dimming slightly. Although it swiftly recovered, the strike had undoubtedly landed!

"It's Yoyo's Holy Light Bullet!"

The pink-hooded figure's eyes sparkled with realization as she exclaimed, and Leo Ray, noticing the identical effect, felt his own gaze sharpen in excitement.

From the chain of incidents with Yoyo, it was evident she was a Stone Spirit expert in Holy Magic.

Given that Holy Magic countered forbidden spells, particularly necromancy, everything fell into place!

"But that was my most powerful move already!"

Yoyo, panting heavily, addressed the team: "And it couldn't even pause the enemy for an instant!"

Hearing Yoyo's declaration, the pink-hooded figure, Frank, and old Gary, whose hopes had just flickered alive, deflated again.

True enough, despite her boosts, Yoyo's strength fell short of impacting the demon significantly—it was simply impossible.

Still, the gleam in Leo Ray's eyes persisted; after all, Sheila hadn't yet maximized her buffs on Yoyo, and as a Stone Spirit, Yoyo herself hadn't received Power Activation!

Via the advanced Divine Revelation from Sheila, unlocking Yoyo's full potential was possible, regardless of old Gary being her original master!

"Sheila, explain Power Activation to Yoyo."

Without delay, Leo Ray commanded the Stone Spirit cradled in his hold.

Leo Ray knew well that soon after old Gary found Yoyo, the Broken Valley Alliance fell to the witch demons, leaving such advanced Divine Revelations undiscovered.

"As you command, master!"

Sheila replied without hesitation, forging an instant mental connection with Yoyo.

"Power of the Sun, Silver Moon Power, Power of the Stars... so these are the wellsprings of all strength?"

Yoyo first appeared dazed, then gave Leo Ray a firm nod: "Human Majesty, please lend me your aid!"

"I entrust this to you."

Leo Ray swiftly forged an energy bond with her, and moments later, Yoyo's aura surged dramatically, her starry eyes gleaming with intensity.

This wasn't solely from completing Power Activation; Leo Ray had also ordered Sheila to amplify Yoyo to her utmost limits. Even with the Absolute Defense Barrier nearly failing, this clash would decide everything—no room for holding back.

"Holy Light Bullet - Meteor Shower Fall!"

Yoyo cried out forcefully, and countless radiant golden orbs materialized around them in a flash, mimicking a genuine meteor cascade as they barreled toward the foe.

As the golden orbs blazed across the space, the once-shadowy hall burst into brilliance, illuminating the team's thrilled faces and the demon's stunned spider features.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

The Holy Light Bullets detonated exactly at the link between the demon's colossal form and the Black Fog, unleashing surges of golden power.

"Ugh!"

Struck by this unforeseen barrage, the unprepared demon emitted a stifled groan, its formerly solid Black Fog tie snapping apart, its aura plummeting sharply, its Energy Barrier wavering, and its huge frame rocking unsteadily.

"Perfect opening!"

The pink-hooded figure grasped the opportunity, conjuring Space Strangulation around the demon's enormous head, zeroing in on that line of crimson eyes.

The team's remaining long-range assaults joined in, tracing brilliant paths toward the target.

However, just as a ray of hopeful light seemed to pierce the gloom, an abrupt twist unfolded.

"Hahaha, hahaha!"

Mocking guffaws erupted from the demon's maw; the severed Black Fog reattached in a heartbeat, bolstered by the Black Fog, the demon's power roared back, casually repelling every incoming strike.

"Pathetic insects, no need for sorrow—now perish at my claws!"

As the demon's haughty and malevolent declaration echoed, its eight enormous limbs thrust forward abruptly, lunging at the group before they could respond.

Boom!

Shatter.

Amid the thunderous impact, the breaking of glass resounded; their precarious defensive barrier shattered outright, leaving Leo Ray's team fully vulnerable beneath the enemy's gigantic claws.

Immediately after, the demon's claws carved two deadly arcs, slashing savagely toward them.

Yet in that very moment, a slim silhouette darted forth, drawing perilously close to the demon's towering body.
