?Chapter 543: 480 Chapter 543: 480 Bernadette also felt an unusual pressure at this time.


    The opponent’s tactics were too bizarre, directly pulling her into this strange world and then almost constantly suppressing her in combat.


    She could sense that the opponent did not necessarily seem stronger than herself.


    Once her divine form appeared, she broke free from the restraints in an instant, while the crushing attacks of those tentacles didn’t seem to be the norm but more like a Sealing Technique confined within this world.


    The black lance now being condensed in the opponent’s hands also gave her a similar sense of damage that had pierced through her before.


    The woman who had appeared before attacked so suddenly, Bernadette couldn’t fend it off even with her multiple layers of mysterious evasions.


    Had it not been for her divine creature form, she would have almost been severely wounded with a single strike.


    ...


    Now taking out “Pale Death” was exerting a tremendous pressure on Bernadette herself!


    This was an item from the Pathway of the Death of Sequence One, one of the last resorts left to her by her father.


    An item of a Sequence One Angel, now that Bernadette was still at Sequence Three, using it forcefully would come with great risks.


    The side effect of the item was that it gradually ‘killed’ its user, making them a slave to the mask.


    But equally, if she used this item, she was confident that it could cause this space to ‘die,’ or even directly cause her opponent to ‘die’!


    The only question was whether she would survive the ordeal.


    Now Tao Yu realized the danger and stopped attacking to kindly persuade her, which made Bernadette equally relieved.


    After pressing her lips tightly, she looked at the dark silhouette and the beautiful woman accompanying him.


    Bernadette slowly exhaled,


    “I was reckless before, for that, I apologize to you.”


    Tao Yu looked at Bernadette, who had previously tried to seize him without a second word, yet now she was apologizing humbly,


    He once again felt the status brought by strength!


    “I was also a bit rash, but the pressure you were putting on me was too great, so I had no choice but to resort to this.


    I will now lift the Barrier.”


    As the opponent respected strength, so did Tao Yu!


    In fact, Bernadette herself was extremely powerful, and Tao Yu relied entirely on a sudden flurry of powerful attacks to take her by surprise.


    He had already used one of the two magical techniques from the Era of the Gods, which had been countered by the opponent; if the second one also failed to achieve results, then he would be in for a protracted battle.


    Even without using that item, it would not necessarily be easy to win.


    Not to mention, the opponent had brought out such a dangerous object.


    Tao Yu was reasonable himself...


    And he could not use the Innate Barrier for an extended period either, as the threshold would continue to increase with the length of use.


    While keeping an eye on the opponent, Tao Yu also slowly disbanded the black lance in his hand, and the pitch-dark Innate Barrier began to crumble, revealing the outside world.


    At this moment, Bernadette astonishingly discovered that her Peach Blossom Spring was still in its original place!


    The two were still concealed from those around them.


    Just now, the opponent did not tear through her attack but instead, unreasonably pulled her into another world within her own Peach Blossom Spring.


    How strong, how bizarre...


    This was a thought that flashed through both of their minds, unbidden.


    Tao Yu was feeling exhilarated, holding a large assortment of Emperor Roselle’s random belongings, and he arrived at an abandoned warehouse.


    He then began a thorough search and soon found a special bookmark.


    “But there seems to be some sort of opening incantation, oh well, I’ll take the stuff and go firsta?€|”


    Tao Yu had intended to just take this unknown Tarot card and leave.


    But looking back at the assorted Emperor Roselle items scattered on the ground, he pondered in his heart,


    “Could these help Mr.


    The Fool recover his memory?


    It’s a waste to just leave them here.


    I’ll sacrifice them to hima?€|”


    a?€|


    On the other side, after returning home through the ritual of dissolution, Klein, who had just been preparing to rest, heard the ethereal prayer again, which made him drag himself reluctantly back into the bathroom, while he pondered,


    “The fellow villager utilized a power comparable to High Sequence and took off early, so he should be fine, but I wonder if he’s encountered any troublea?€|”


    He was genuinely worried that the other party would pray for his assistance.


    If the villager couldn’t handle the enemy, he would be of no use at all.


    He wondered where that confidence in The Fool was coming from, just because of a single resurrectiona?€|


    Later, up in the Gray Mist, Klein looked at the haphazard pile of books and daily necessities belonging to Emperor Roselle, even a toilet seat cover, and fell into contemplation.


    Did they think of this place as a dumpa?€|


    But though he thought that, Klein still started to rummage through the pile again, in case, just in case, the other party hadn’t found the Tarot card.


    Wouldn’t that be a stroke of luck for himselfa?€|


    a?€|


    “Didn’t you sleep well last night?


    Your eyes are so bloodshot,”


    The next day, Tao Yu took the initiative to look for Klein and was surprised to see him with dark circles and bloodshot eyes.


    “Had a bit of insomnia.”


    “I forgot you are from the Church of the Night, but it’s not good to make a habit of staying up late,”


    Tao Yu said earnestly.


    He then pulled out a bookmark and said,


    “This is something I ‘borrowed’ from the Emperor Roselle commemoration exhibition; it should be a Tarot card, like the Red Priest type.


    Let’s figure out together how to decipher ita?€|”


    You call that borrowing?


    Klein thought about the trash he had hidden away in the Gray Mist, which he had gone through all night, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly.


    If I’d known you were coming to me, I wouldn’t have lost sleep over it.


    I really don’t need to go through all that trouble with The Fool anymore...


    I’ve already become The Magician...


    Thanks to The Fool’s ability to control expressions, Klein managed not to let his desire to cry show...
