Chapter 466: Capture

"A bit late, but you're far better than those bystanders over there."

Li Mochen was slightly surprised, but a smile quickly appeared on his face: "Mr. Maxim, since you're here, do me a favor. Leave the knot on the left to you. Right now I can only keep her from escaping, but to capture this woman, six legendary powerhouses must operate simultaneously."

"As I thought—"

Victor Maxim had roughly discerned the situation before stepping in.

His BOSS had indeed been attacked by these two alien legends, but he seemed to have anticipated it and set a trap in advance. The scene before him confirmed his judgment.

"As your subordinate, it is my duty!"

But just as Victor was about to take his position holding the 'Mithril Holy Shield,' Delphinia had already abandoned Li Mochen and darted toward another knot on the right.

She knew her chances of escaping this cage today were slim, but as long as these six knots were not all under someone else's control, they could only trap her or kill her, not capture her.

The moment Victor Maxim appeared, Delphinia had foreseen the outcome. Despair had set in, and she even thought of ending her life on the spot to avoid further humiliation.

But at this moment, Delphinia realized that even death might be denied to her. During her fierce battle with Li Mochen, she had already sensed the divine authority of life he possessed.

That was precisely the foundation of Li Mochen's frontal battle against her; the latter continuously transformed the life force extracted from both of them into his own demonic source. After exchanging no fewer than two thousand rounds with her, his source power still showed no sign of depletion, and his demonic energy remained vigorous.

At this moment, the only thing Delfinia could think of was to seize the knot ahead of time and prevent the other party's intentions from succeeding. These people would either kill her or keep her stalemated here forever—there would never be a third outcome!

"Get back!"

With this cold snort, a graceful young girl's figure suddenly stepped in from another direction. Her dragonized right arm smashed over, colliding violently with Delfinia's sword tide. After a blast like a firecracker, the sword curtain woven by Delfinia was forcibly shattered, and she was sent flying a hundred meters under the impact of that tremendous force!

"Hazel Wiltenstein?"

Victor Maxim's eyes narrowed again. In the intelligence he had gathered before rushing to Atlanta, this girl named Hazel was his boss's adopted cousin. Li Mochen seemed to dote on her, often keeping her by his side.

But that intelligence absolutely did not mention that this little girl was a demigod-level dragon-blooded sorcerer!

Delfinia did not attempt to attack Hazel again; she knew it was futile. Hazel was several levels below her in combat technique, yet she could overcome skill with brute force. Her half-dragonized body was simply unafraid of her attacks.

Li Mochen's Death Divine Authority, along with the injuries accumulated over this period, had caused her strength to plummet sharply. Even a full-force strike could hardly break through the outer dragon scales of this young girl.

However, the third figure to step into this space caused Delfinia's heart to sink to the bottom—it was 'Blood-Eyed Angel' Robert E. Yvonne.

The thirteen 'Fangs of the Wind God' had only just broken into this space when the Void Night Lord knew that the knot in this direction was hopeless. But then, figures approaching from the other three directions gradually turned her face a deathly gray.

"This is a truly splendid battle, Amo. Your swordsmanship leaves me in awe."

It was none other than Anthony Braden, accompanied by two legendary fifth-rank mages.

One of them was superfluous, left to idle on the sidelines—Viktor Maxim, who had taken the place of a legendary mage beyond Li Mochen's expectations.

At this moment, outside the cage, Lady Christie Brad also revealed herself. Her wand pointed into the distance, and a stream of cool light enveloped the entire cage.

It was a 'Dimensional Lock' of the thirtieth rank, making the spatial sealing device jointly crafted by Li Mochen and Anthony even more unbreakable.

Li Mochen cast a distant glance at the red-haired sorceress, then shook his head inwardly.

Utterly unnecessary, this meddlesome Anthony! If Lady Brad were determined to oppose him, today's events would only prompt her to make more thorough preparations half a year later.

He hoped this Mr. Richest Man wouldn't spoil things by overreaching.

Then he collected his thoughts and focused on Delphinia Ederick before him. The 'Lord of the Void Night' had ceased struggling, standing motionless with an ashen face.

Yet everyone present could see that she was attempting to detonate the source power within her, annihilating her own flesh and soul.

The former was nearly impossible for Delphinia; Li Mochen's spatial sealing device had long accounted for this. The chains, drawing on the power of the boundless void, suppressed the狂暴 magical energy exceeding the threshold within the space, preventing the Lord of the Void Night from detonating her source core.

And her self-annihilation was also disrupted by a force, causing her disintegrating flesh to continuously regenerate and her extinguished soul to restore itself.

"Begin!"

Li Mochen knew that his newly mastered 'Divine Authority of Life' could not interfere with Delphinia for long. He pointed a finger, and the chain link behind him first spat out a blue light chain. Anthony and Viktor Maxim followed suit, activating the links behind them.

These chains, formed from void energy, had no physical substance and were untouchable by others. Yet when they approached Delphinia, they tightly bound her body.

Delphinia initially tried to dodge, but to no avail. The chains could extend infinitely, and within just one second, they wove a dense spiderweb within the 'cage' of less than ten kilometers in radius, leaving the Lord of the Void Night no room to evade.

After Delphinia was tightly bound, Li Mochen forcibly drove a blood-red crystal deep into her brow. Under his manipulation, it voraciously devoured her soul.

The Lord of the Void Night's resistance grew fiercer. Not only did crimson flames blaze outside her body, but her soul also turned into a torch, triggering waves of magical energy surges.

At this moment, Li Mochen temporarily halted the crystal's devouring force and spoke in an inscrutable tone: "Miss Ederick, before you attempt self-immolation, why not talk with me first? If the price you pay today satisfies Mr. Braden and me, it is not impossible for us to let you both leave."

The woman in the flames paused, furrowing her brows and looking at Li Mochen with deep suspicion.

The latter curled his lips slightly: "I have no intention of enslaving you, but I am also unwilling to let you leave and later oppose me and Light Magic Industries again. I suppose Miss Ederick does not wish to die here, does she?"

"Then what exactly does Mr. Wieldensteen want?"

Delphinia was still burning her soul, but the middle-aged butler pinned by the three swords of Sun, Moon, and Stars let out a sigh: "Delph, please stop, alright? The Hetero race cannot do without you."
