Chapter 1192: Chapter 304 Failed Breakthrough Attempt

"Uh, you don’t have to be so rigid, after all, we have been enemies for over a hundred years, and some things have to be flexible. Plus, look, our strengths are almost equal, uh, okay, I admit, you might be slightly stronger than me, but if it’s until one of us falls, I’m afraid it’s going to take a very, very long time," Pannis said with a dry laugh. "For such a long time, we’ll need to take breaks, like having a meal to replenish ourselves, using the restroom, or maybe even finding a place to sleep."

"Hehe, in our condition, we don’t need to eat or excrete, and not sleeping for a year or two makes no difference," Nora said leisurely, seemingly oblivious to Pannis’s hint. "As for taking a long time, I’m not in a hurry, not in the slightest."

"But I am in a hurry," Pannis said, scratching his head. "And I need these things."

"What you need has nothing to do with me; it’s enough that I don’t need them," Nora seemed truly unfazed by Pannis’s words, speaking leisurely, "And why are you in such a rush? Rushing to face death?"

"I am in a hurry to go see what caused the explosion," Pannis said assertively. "Of course, if I encounter them, I don’t mind slaughtering your followers, no need for many, just over a hundred will suffice."

"Sure, I don’t mind, go ahead," Nora blinked, teasing. "As long as you can find the door out, feel free."

"Uh, it seems that way, has this place become a space isolated from the world?" Pannis clearly wasn’t going to really leave, but he sighed and said, "Do we have to complete a sacrifice to get out?"

"No, just until the ritual ends," Nora said without concealment, "The ritual is controlled by the two of us, so to get out, you just have to defeat the final me. When I die, the space between the rituals will naturally return to its normal state, so if you’re really in a hurry, you shouldn’t waste any more time. Hurry up and beat me, or let me beat you quickly. That way, the ritual will naturally end, and the only difference will be who gets out."

"Well, I must admit, I’m a bit regretful now," Pannis sighed again and said helplessly, "Maybe I should have listened to Matilda’s advice earlier, killed your followers and then left. I don’t see any alternative sacrifices here; I think that was just a ploy to lure me in."

"Heh, no need for regrets, there definitely were alternative sacrifices, but since you chose to enter, there naturally was no need to bring them here," Nora slowly bowed, daggers crossed in front of her, her expression turning serious, and she spoke in a deep voice, "Alright, I’ve cooperated with your stalling for so long, your physical strength and energy must have mostly recovered by now, let’s continue."

"Caught me," Pannis’s expression finally turned serious, and he truly had been delaying for time, needing a moment to regain his strength and rethink his tactics, but being called out was always a bit embarrassing, he could only apologize, "Sorry, for the spectacle."

"It’s normal, nothing to apologize for. By the way, I’ve also recovered some energy during this time, so everything is back to the starting point," Nora said. "If you’re really that hurried, how about you just give up and let me kill you once? It won’t take many tries, just a few times, and I promise I’ll end the ritual immediately and let you out to help your people. Otherwise, continuing like this makes no sense at all."

"Thanks, but I plan not to let the Death’s Gate open, nor do I intend to let you kill me even once," Pannis shook his head vigorously, rejecting Nora’s suggestion. "Moreover, I rarely engage in meaningless actions. Since I know you have also used the opportunity to recover, it means I’ve found a way to deal with the current predicament. Don’t worry, soon, I’ll be able to kill you and leave this place."

"Heh, then what are you waiting for?" Nora chuckled lightly. "If you’re so confident, why not try?"

"Actually, although Pannis was at a disadvantage, he never truly believed he would lose. He indeed had a trump card he had not yet revealed, mainly because of the last seal on himself. Now back to Legendary after battling Philarx, he had regained his peak strength. Even if he unlocked the seal actively, the changes to his strength would be minimal, but if he broke through the seal passively, it would be different. The path from Legendary to Demigod is the most fraught, representing countless life-and-death challenges, facing desperate situations several times, and also another understanding of the world. Once he broke through the seal and truly rejoined the ranks of Demigods, even he couldn’t be sure what state he would be in, but one thing for certain, then he would truly stand atop the Yarran World as the most powerful Demigod."

For some reason, Pannis suddenly thought of the quiet Sigein sitting at the core of the Goblin Research Institute, leisurely combing her golden hair, and also recalled her husband, Loki, who had caused the downfall of Danacus and boldly led thousands from the Triclops to directly confront the Deity. Perhaps, after breaking his seal, his strength might reach that level. However, such matters are uncertain until they happen. Regardless, as long as he could use this opportunity to break his own seal, Nora would not be considered a strong opponent anymore.

However, unfortunately, even after continuous high-intensity combat at a disadvantage, Pannis had not been able to break through his limit again, which was quite normal. If advancing from Legendary to Demigod were so easy, the world would probably have many more Demigods by several dozen times, so Pannis was not surprised, only slightly regretful.

"Alright, I’m very sorry, I was too greedy," Pannis said with self-deprecating laughter. "The result of our battle should not have been delayed for so long, it’s because of my personal reasons that kept you waiting."

"It’s okay, are we finally going to fight with all our might, like when you faced Herr?" Nora asked calmly. "I’m curious, what kind of trump card makes you still believe you can win in such a situation? When you faced Herr, you killed him with a crazy explosion, a tactic none of us expected. What will it be this time?"

"However, this time is quite ordinary, it might disappoint you," Pannis shrugged his shoulders and gripped the sword behind him. "You’ll know soon, very soon."
