The woman's cry caused a moment of hesitation among the soldiers. As she charged, they instinctively turned their spearheads away from her.
But this hesitation was destined to come at a cost. Seizing the opportunity, the woman drew near and, with a wave of her hand, sent a black smoke, invisible to ordinary people, sweeping over the soldiers.
The next second, as if struck by some terrifying force, they were engulfed in extreme panic, screaming in agony.
The spear formation, which had stood firm against assault after assault, began to waver, even recoil.
The Heretics seized this chance and surged forward, on the verge of breaking through the defensive line. Unexpectedly, one soldier withstood the Heretic Priest's Sorcery and, in his extreme fear, erupted with powerful resolve!
"I absolutely will not let you escape unless you step over my dead body!"
