Huge invisible fluctuations suddenly spread out.
The Spirit Scream, a powerful AOE law skill, contained both the physical shockwave and spiritual blast damage.
Mia's figure vanished in an instant, then reappeared not far away, with a trickle of blood seeping from her nostrils.
She had anticipated and dodged the demigod's attack, only to be slightly injured by the aftermath of the spiritual impact.
Before the Resentful Spirit Demigod could turn around, Peggy had already rushed to her back at high speed, with a streak of black light flashing between her fingers.
Curse Death!
The black light shot out like lightning, only to see the other's figure flash and disappear, reappearing a few meters ahead, perfectly evading the dark light.
"Is this, the Ripple Sword?" Peggy exclaimed, hastily leaping back, thrusting the short sword from under her armpit toward the rear—Mia would often use this move during their sparring to teleport behind her, followed by a treacherous backstab.
However, her blind stab hit nothing, as the other didn't teleport behind her again, but slowly vanished into the air.
"Pay attention, it's the Mind Blind Zone!" Medea's voice rang in everyone's ears as her Mind Lines shot out quickly towards the team.
With the connection of the Mind Lines, everyone gained Medea's Mind Vision, only to see a vague mist rushing towards Peggy from afar, its exact shape indiscernible.
More precisely, whenever they tried to look closely, there was a strong impulse in their minds "to ignore it."
The mist figure charged straight at Peggy, carrying a sort of chilling breath. Peggy's body promptly exploded into bats, scattering in all directions, replaced by a dazzling radiance that shone like the blazing sun from within the swarm of bats.
Ellie, using the cover of the bat swarm, charged out rapidly. Her golden hair spreading wildly in the charge, her long spear forged from brilliant will tore through the air, with the dazzling Judgment Flames on its body, bravely stabbing towards the mist figure.
The Resentful Spirit Demigod hastily retreated, fluttering away rapidly like a leaf caught in a whirlwind. The next second, her figure vanished from the spot.
"As expected, a teleportation skill!" Eleanor stopped in her urgent charge, her spear sweeping horizontally in an instant, with the Iron Cutting Skill generating a massive swooshing wind, spreading the Judgment Flames still burning on the spearhead around her, preventing the enemy from appearing within the range of the flames.
The Resentful Spirit Demigod appeared at the edge of the flames, seemingly very wary of the flames that restrained evil.
Suddenly, she lifted her head, her gaze locked onto Minerva not far away.
Minerva's gray hair moved without wind, muttering eerily, as if casting some curse.
The Resentful Spirit Demigod teleported once more, appearing right in front of her.
"Careful!" Mia also teleported behind Minerva, just as the Resentful Spirit Demigod raised her elegant neck and opened her mouth as if singing silently.
At the same time, the surrounding trees bizarrely bent and broke outwards as if shattered by some invisible shockwave.
Just as the shockwave was about to reach them, Mia and Minerva vanished again.
Then, from the twisted trees, large bunches of vines and flowers suddenly grew, like a surging wave of plants, rolling towards the Resentful Spirit Demigod.
The Resentful Spirit Demigod issued another Spirit Scream, the invisible shockwave overturning the wave of plants.
However, the spiritual attack in the Spirit Scream was not very effective against soulless plants, and these vines and flowers, designed by Nora to be not only supple but also very resilient, were merely shaken wildly in the wind by the shockwave.
Suddenly, a white-haired figure rushed out from the bushes.
Sigrdrifa took advantage of the plants' cover to charge out, activating the Navian Bone Tooth, and instantly summoned two Fenrisulfr Wolves.
The two Demon Wolves pounced on the Resentful Spirit Demigod from left and right while she once again raised her neck: Spirit Scream!
The shockwave sent the Demon Wolves flying, turning into fading images from a dispelled summon in the air, while Sigrdrifa perfectly retreated just outside the range of the Spirit Scream's aftermath, then immediately turned and charged again.
At this point, the Resentful Spirit Demigod had emitted one Spirit Scream, unable to issue another so soon, Sigrdrifa promptly rushed forward again, swinging the North Wind Axe across.
Extinction Law. Silence!
The Resentful Spirit Demigod vanished once more, reappearing a few meters away. Mia suddenly teleported behind her, about to initiate a twist in space skill, when her expression changed abruptly.
The other raised her neck again, and Mia quickly teleported away again, the Spirit Scream sweeping over where she had just been, snapping all the nearby grass and trees.
Everyone: ......
The originally exquisitely coordinated teamwork, when facing this Lv.32 Resentful Spirit Demigod, seemed to have no effect at all.
Even with the enemy's repetitive tactics of teleporting to avoid attacks and then Spirit Screaming to clear the field after reappearing, they managed to neutralize everyone's attacks.
...
Speaking of neutralizing, the girls quickly remembered something else:
Where was the Squad Leader?
Why was our squad leader slacking off again?
"Cough cough." Aske coughed awkwardly from behind.
He wasn't trying to be lazy, he just wanted to see how well the girls could coordinate.
Now, it seemed their teamwork and awareness were adequate, but they just weren't flexible enough to deal with the agility of the enemy.
To put it metaphorically, they could solve problems following a set pattern, but when the form of the question changed, they were stumped again.
