Boom!
With the sound of an explosion, layers of airwaves rolled outwards.
Adelis was swept away by the blast, tumbling across the ground. With great effort, she reached out and grabbed a piece of rubble from a corner of the ruins, finally stabilizing herself.
Bai Ye walked towards Adelis and said, "You can't beat me, and you can't escape. What are you going to do?"
Adelis had no intention of speaking further. Instead, she immediately threw a talisman, and the surrounding yellow sand swirled, enveloping her body.
This woman still wanted to run, but...
Suddenly...
Circles of light formed a vortex beneath Adelis's feet, and then Gengar suddenly emerged from below, grabbing Adelis's ankle.
"Since this thing might not be useful, I'll use it," Bai Ye said to Adelis, "You should feel honored, because you're not worthy of me using this."
What Bai Ye was referring to...
Was naturally fireworks!
In an instant, a large display of fireworks bloomed in the sky behind Bai Ye.
Colorful and brilliant.
The people working around the defensive wall were all drawn by the fireworks and looked over.
The dark night became extremely beautiful.
However...
Adelis's expression was grim, very grim.
The general meaning of a domain ability is to open up an independent space and create effects within that space.
Typically, domain abilities have two main types of effects: enhancement or debuff. Of course, occasionally there are domains with effects unrelated to buffs, possessing special functions.
And all domains have three common points.
First, domain abilities are time-continuous, have a considerable cooldown period, and require very high mental strength.
Second, domain abilities are very powerful. As far as Bai Ye knows, there are no domain abilities below the red quality.
Third, the other meaning of a domain can be understood as a cage. Within the space formed by the domain, apart from the user, others cannot freely enter or exit.
Of course, the space of a domain can be forcefully broken.
Back in the ghoul area, Li Jiayi's Infinite Void did not directly kill Arima Kisho because Arima Kisho broke through the domain's space, although Arima Kisho still died at Li Jiayi's hands in the end.
However, breaking through a domain's space is not an easy task. Compared to creating a domain, breaking one is much more troublesome.
There is another way, which is to counter a domain with a domain. Whichever domain is stronger can cover the other's domain.
This depends on the quality of the domain and the mental strength of the user.
It's not uncommon for both to be very close. In such cases, it's like rolling dice, or more directly put, it's a matter of luck.
This is also why Adelis's expression was grim. She was currently facing the third situation, which was being trapped within a domain.
"Domain!" Adelis grunted, "Shadow Garden!"
Adelis decisively activated her domain immediately, wanting to counter the domain with her own to escape this place, but...
Black shadows appeared beneath Adelis's feet and spread outwards. However, they only extended about seven or eight meters before the black shadows retracted and merged back into Adelis's body.
Puff!
Adelis felt a sweetness in her throat and spat out a mouthful of blood.
It was clear that Adelis's domain could not compete!
Bai Ye curved his lips, confident in his mental strength. Moreover, although the festival fireworks were a prop, they were still gold-colored.
This meant that the domain formed by the festival fireworks was bound to be of gold quality.
The classification of props only affects the number of uses, not the quality of the domain.
So, how could Adelis compete?
Adelis felt despair at this moment, truly unable to escape or fight.
Then...
She could only die!
Zzzzz!
Bai Ye flashed and appeared in front of Adelis.
Adelis sat on the ground, seemingly having lost all confidence and will to survive. Bai Ye then raised his right hand.
Raijin's Fury appeared in Bai Ye's hand, shimmering with light.
But, at this very moment...
Adelis suddenly raised her head, a bamboo tube in her mouth. She exerted all her strength and spat out a mouthful of purple venom.
This was Adelis's desperate struggle, waiting for the moment Bai Ye thought the situation was under control, to suddenly launch a final attack, attempting to turn the tide.
However...
The venom landed squarely on Bai Ye's face, just as Adelis had hoped.
But the painful wails and the rotting of her skin did not appear.
Bai Ye casually reached out and wiped the venom from his face, then...
Puff!
Bai Ye swept Raijin's Fury forward.
Raijin's Fury let out a "humming" sword cry. After passing by Adelis's neck, her head fell off.
"You chose the worst way to kill me."
Truthfully, for a moment, Bai Ye was indeed fooled by Adelis, thinking she had lost her will to fight.
Unfortunately, poison was completely ineffective against Bai Ye.
Bai Ye casually sheathed his light sword. The fireworks in the sky began to dissipate. With Adelis's death, the domain automatically deactivated.
As Bai Ye just left the domain, Jeram was quickly climbing over the ruins and landed beside Bai Ye.
"Bai Ye..." Jeram called out to Bai Ye, "What happened?"
Bai Ye shrugged his shoulders. "Just an enemy showing up."
Jeram glanced at Adelis's corpse. Was this woman out of her mind? To have such a pervert as an enemy was one thing, but to dare show up at his doorstep? Did she not want to die fast enough?
"It's good that nothing happened. The base sounded an alarm, so I came to check," Jeram said. "I was worried you might clash with the people at the defensive wall, which would have been a big problem."
Bai Ye laughed. "How big of a problem? Would you pilot a mech to hit me?"
Jeram spread his hands. "What if I really got that mission? By the way, the matter is proceeding."
Bai Ye asked, "How?"
Jeram said, "Two reconnaissance planes transmitted news that they found an unusual location at sea. Of course, it's not confirmed to be an infiltration point yet."
"Around eight o'clock tomorrow morning, the fleet and submarines will reach that sea area for further exploration of the seabed. But I think it's highly likely. Once we get the news from the front, we'll have to depart."
Bai Ye nodded. "No problem."
Jeram thought for a moment. "Should I find a way to get you into the base? Is there any position that would allow you to act with me openly?"
Bai Ye spread his hands. "You're just a pilot."
Jeram was momentarily choked by this remark, then said helplessly, "Alright, I am indeed just a pilot."
