Chapter 350: Flawless Victory
The entire ground where she had been sitting completely collapsed under the residual gravity of Jessica’s approach, forming a deep, smoking pit below. She turned her head to locate her opponent, only to see Jessica already right in front of her midair, her blade already descending.
"I won’t lose that easily!" Eve yelled, her pride as a Captain flaring up. She raised her massive instrument, thrusting the reinforced frame straight towards Jessica’s descending blade.
BAM!!
The two weapons collided violently midair, sending a shockwave through the atmosphere that forcefully sent Eve flying back down to the ground. She landed lightly on her feet, skidding backward, and immediately turned her eyes to inspect her guzheng.
’Her sword actually left a physical scratch on my legendary class weapon? This girl...’ She thought, a chill running down her spine as she looked up at Jessica hovering effortlessly in the sky.
"I will no longer hold back." Jessica said flatly. She slowly sheathed her jagged sword back into its scabbard, standing perfectly stationary midair, her normal eyes closed. Only her golden mythic eye remained wide open, completely fixed on Eve with an unfeeling, god-like gaze.
’This?! Why do I have such a terrifyingly bad feeling?!’ Eve’s instincts screamed at her. She quickly played her instrument with maximum speed, channeling every ounce of her remaining energy as her absolute strongest, multi-layered defensive barrier appeared around her. She knew that against an opponent of this tier, attacking was suicide; defense was the only thing possible.
Jessica’s grip tightened on her hilt. She drew her sword with insane, mathematically impossible speed, and completely vanished from the perception of the tracking wards, appearing instantly behind Eve’s back before anyone could even register the movement, then sheathed back her sword with a cold click.
"This?"
Eve watched in absolute, paralyzed shock, as her strongest, unbroken barrier suddenly formed deep cracks, then violently shattered into countless glittering pieces. She vomited a massive mouthful of crimson blood, her internal spirit energy channels completely cut off, falling heavily to the hard stone ground.
