e stones beneath his feet let out a deep rumble and then slowly sank!until the secrets beneath the wine cellar are revealed.Embedded in the depression on the ground was a super-ancient magical device...Chapter 427: Lance and the Hegemon of the Heavenly Church were only friends who had sworn to death.

Whom did you meet on your way here

Huberlian immediately seized the great poet's arm, asking with concern.

I arrived safely at the entrance transfer hall and encountered the jailer, but she was already badly wounded before we met. I called for medical aid and sent her back to the base level.

The great poet told her about his experiences when they were separated before.

"Whew, that's good, that's good."

Hyberlian took a deep breath.

Thinking about it carefully, how could a great poet like him possibly have hurt an official of this level It's obviously just a coincidence.

With Lance's arrival, the few people in the Level -5 Transfer Hall immediately got down to business, focusing on the crimson glow on their bracelets, which displayed information about the prisoners of this level.

The list doesn't contain the name "Pranai", but there is an inmate named "Sinora" with warnings and markings similar to Antanas's previous ones on the list.

"So, the Great Demon Lord on this level is the Lawbreaker, Sinora. Then the Truth-teller, Pranae, must be on the sixth floor down."

After confirming, Ranch said to Antanas.

"I now understand why the Protoss Empire would keep Xynora locked on this level."

Antanas nodded, sighing.

"Do you know much about the Heretic Sinnoh"

Lance inquired.

As a peacemaker, the Snow Queen and Sinoa, the Breaker of Laws, along with Praenelle, the Truthbringer, don't have very good relations. The Snow Queen's intel is also very limited, and these two powerful demons were not meant to be saved by the Goddess of Destiny's Church anyway.

On the other hand, Antanas, who is also a conservative of the demon clan, would be more familiar with these two great demons.

"Of course, because Sinora's talent in magic is rather unique. She can reverse-calculate a spell after seeing it once. Once successful, the next time she encounters that same spell, she can instantly nullify it. So, mages weaker than her are practically helpless against her. After one round of spells is used, they're basically out of options. The longer the fight goes on, the more hopeless things become."

Antanas shook his head, his bitter expression revealing that he was always outmatched in their fights with Sinora.

Except for epic-level spells, Sinola couldn't easily reverse engineer them, and cracking divine-level spells was somewhat difficult. All other spells were almost impossible to threaten her after just seeing them once.

She added.

"No wonder the Protoss Empire would imprison her in the [Annihilation War of Despair]."

Lanci had a moment of realization.

Logically speaking, such a powerful and formidable enemy mage like Xinola should be extremely difficult to imprison. However, the negative fifth level of Herlohm Prison happens to be a natural prison for her.

In this layer of the Abyss, Sinora is the new king of crushing opponents among the current demons. When she duels against mages weaker than her, there's no chance of losing. However, she is also a mage herself and gets beaten up by the phantom Sinora summoned by the Great Demon Race's trial [The Hopeless Annihilation War]. She can't even leave her cell.

If the rogue Sinora escapes her cell, she will be hunted by even stronger phantoms.

On the contrary, the cell became her rare safe haven.

The biggest counter to the Sinnoh's magical abilities is pure physical professions, like Siegfried. He is the natural enemy of Sinnoh who wields magic.

And this level's Melissa, the prison warden as a defensive knight, isn't really afraid of Sinnoll, the Breaker of Laws. Or rather, if she were to face Sinnoll in the 【Hopeless Annihilation War】, all she needs to do is stay alive, and Sinnoll would die quickly.

"I want to make a hypothesis. If you and the outlaw Sinora teamed up, could you defeat an eighth-order mage"

Lancer pondered for a moment, then looked back at Antanas.

He wasn't very optimistic about the specific combat effectiveness of Pherra, the Sinnoh Breaker. This is because Pherra's performance differed greatly when facing mages versus warriors.

Two members of the Heavenly Tyrant sect were deeply moved upon hearing this. They knew that their young master was always considering the well-being of the bishop, and he showed no fear even when facing the Annihilation Bishop.

How strong is he, about

Antanas' expression grew grave. She could probably guess that this "eighth-rank mage" was the great enemy she needed to face for the princess after leaving Helrom Prison.

After all, the gap between eight ranks is also huge.

Even back when the Demon Realm was still around, there were all kinds of demons within its ranks: some who weren't very good at fighting and others who were unbelievably powerful.

"If at her peak, Tallia could last ten minutes and that would be a success."

Lanche thought for a moment, assessing Asksang's abilities.

According to the new ranking system in South Continent, Tallia with her strength at level 8 might be around 82 to 83. As for Eskasan with his Archbishop-level power, he's likely around 87 or even 88.

Here is the translation of the provided text:"…"

Although Antanas wanted to say something, after thinking it over carefully, he found that the word "surprisingly" was very vivid and allowed her to clearly understand the strength of that enemy.

"...It's still unwinnable, he's too strong."

Antanas shook his head. This kind of human, ignoring the Nine Ranks, I'm afraid only a few of the strongest generals from the Demon Clan back then could have dealt with him.

Those few who survived were mostly logistics-oriented demons. Antanas was slightly weaker than Talia, while Sinola was about the same strength as Talia and had a characteristic that countered mages.

But the difference in hard power compared to that opposing sorcerer was too obvious.

Antanas had no confidence that he could help Synolla withstand a single round of attacks, allowing Synolla to maintain the ability to break most of the opponent's spells.

"Where's Praana, the embodiment of truth"

"Well, we could give it a try. If the three of us team up, even the Imperial Archsage Isis would have a headache."

According to Antanas, the strongest person in the Protoss Empire now is Isis, the holder of the [Primordial Tablet - Light].

Understood.

Lance nodded, roughly understanding.

He was uncertain what level of support Archbishop Ascanio would be able to recover to after the vote in three days.

But let's just calculate based on its prime condition.

Lane will give this opponent the highest level of respect.

"…"

Huberly's brow furrowed in concern. A sense of foreboding weighed upon her, but she hesitated to question Lance in front of the two domineering clergymen.

She felt that Lan Qi was seriously analyzing the combat power, back in Iketere Academy, everyone in the Chain Gold Courtyard liked to analyze combat power.

> And Lynch proposed a hypothetical enemy as a reference.

Hughbert is a little unsure if the "Eighth-Rank Mage" that Lynch proposed actually exists.

But Huberlian quickly quelled her suspicions. Ranch, as a prominent figure in the Protos Empire and a maintainer of order, would be unlikely to publicly disrupt the papal election in Herloom, the imperial capital, on such a crucial day.

Lanche's plan was to collaborate with three demons, complete the transaction with the Hegemon branch, and owe nothing to each other. Then they could return to the Esthterlan kingdom, without needing to get fully involved in the inner conflict of the Resurrection Church.

After all, Lance only knew the woman named Sid, and it wasn't worth risking his life for someone like that terrible figure in the Catholic Church.
