Chapter 1385 Helpless
As you might have guessed, Knight Balmain and his comrades were extremely furious. Knight Hucks did not die in glory. Instead, he was a.s.sa.s.sinated, especially since it was by the Thief G.o.d Milton they heard about since they came out of retreat.
In fact, they were only forced out of retreat because of him, and that broke their plan of resurrecting with the demon from beyond and fighting alongside him.
You could count the number of G.o.d rank knights the holy kingdom had in 2 hands, and 2 have died in the hands of Thief G.o.d Milton.
As the giant glowing ball shot up the front line it could be seen from the defense wall of Doomsday and the Holy Kingdom.
But no one was happy. It made sense for the holy kingdom because they lost a precious knight, but it was also a huge embarra.s.sment to the wizard union.
After all, they were expecting Abel to lose a few summons by and broadcast the process to the world.
Not only did that not happen, but it also showed Abel’s triumph, which meant the wizard union really was helpless in their last fight.
The broadcast could be seen all throughout the wizard union headquarters and organizations with a connection to the wizard union, so the damage was done.
Wizard Smith grunted. Thief G.o.d Milton’s a.s.sa.s.sination had succeeded once again, and he felt deeply insulted.
It has been thousands of years since he felt this way. Even what happened in the Battlecry plateau was nowhere as bad.
“Call the legends back and turn off the broadcast!” Wizard Hawthorn lightly suggested. He sounded helpless, almost like he was in a very bad mood.
“We can’t do that!” Wizard Smith shook his head
The worst scenario has already happened. If the wizard union abruptly stopped the broadcast, it would only seem like they were covering something.
They could lose face, but losing trust would be detrimental.
“We can no longer keep that Headmaster Abel around. He is not powerful, just lure him out and a single G.o.d rank wizard would be able to take him down. Then, the super cannon and the golden castle’s secrets will be ours!” Wizard Hawthorn lowered his voice.
Wizard Smith did not say anything, but he promised to not do any harm to Abel.
He wouldn’t take back his words, but that doesn’t mean he disliked the idea.
Still, he knew how determined Abel was. When he was attacked by 2 legendary wizards and legendary knights in the elves, he eventually killed both of those wizards.
Although one of them was labeled as disappeared, it was most likely the work of Thief G.o.d Milton.
“Mr Hawthorn, headmaster Abel is a dragon headmaster. Going after him would mean a full fall out with the dragons!” Wizard Brennan reminded.
“Besides headmaster Abel’s summons, there are only 4 G.o.d rank dragons. We will have a much harder time getting rid of him when he too becomes a G.o.d rank!” Another G.o.d rank wizard was added.
Wizard Brennan really didn’t want to mess with Abel, but his personal relations.h.i.+p meant nothing
Abel progressed way too fast. It was very possible that he became an even greater threat than the Holy Kingdom.
The G.o.d ranks turned to Wizard Smith and gazed at each other. No one seemed to reject the idea.
Wizard Brennan sighed. He knew very well what happened today was a huge loss of face to the wizard union.
Abel thought he was just protecting the dwarves, but that little gesture made the wizard union determined to catch him.
Meanwhile, he was still focusing on the front line with his world stone.
He knew very well the 5 leftover G.o.d rank knights would strike again.
Although he had 5 G.o.d rank summons as well, he was not planning to expose G.o.d rank no.2 and no.3 yet.
As for thief G.o.d Milton, he was basically useless in direct combat, and G.o.d rank no.1 could only go against a single G.o.d rank knight at most with his gears.
Therefore, taking down 5 G.o.d rank knights was still impossible.
“Come back!” He sent out a command through the soul chain.
The summons immediately flashed back to the star light protection circle without hesitation.
Since knight Balmain had restructured his formation, he charged forward to chase after but kept changing direction so the super cannon wouldn’t be able to take aim.
Those knights’ minds were basically at one with each other, and they were slowly approaching the golden castle.
There were countless ways to attack the golden castle, considering how big it was, and the super cannon had no way of matching up to the speed of those knights.
Wizard Fara wanted to say something, but he immediately stopped when he saw the focus look on Abel’s face.
After all, the dwarves were still under the golden castle’s protection, and the knight’s energy could not hurt them.
At the same time, they were all busy at work and did not have time to look out.
Abel gazed down, and his druid soul gave out a number. The construction would be completed in 30 mixtures.
A smile emerged on his face.
When Knight Balmain and his team were 3000 meters from the golden castle, they suddenly speeded down to the construction grounds.
It was at that very moment the 500 stone throwers from h.e.l.l on the golden castle were triggered, and elemental b.a.l.l.s quickly appeared beside the knights.
Knight Balmain sensed it coming and quickly dodged with his team. All 500 explosions missed.
“Careful. Those attacks are not strong but we might still get hurt with so many of them around!” Knight Balmain lowered his voice.
He then turned and continued to make his way towards the construction grounds. He knew very well once he killed those dwarves, he would be able to regenerate with their soul, and victory would be in his hand as long as he didn’t get struck by the super cannon.
But it was only after a second another round of elemental b.a.l.l.s blasted out and filled the place with it.
Knight Balmain smirked. He knew those elemental b.a.l.l.s were not strong, so he could take a few hits, and soon the knights were out of the chaos with only some minor injuries.
At the same time, they realized they had arrived outside of the star light protection circle’s energy s.h.i.+eld. “Get ready to break the s.h.i.+eld!” Knight Balmain lowered his voice.
He had 100 fists of heaven gathered, and it was quickly unleashed within his world.
The other 4 knights followed, and a blinding beam shot out of their formation.
It was 500 fists of heaven being unleashed together. It was chilling just by looking at it.
But it was at that moment their formation paused, and Abel took the chance.
“Fire!” He called.
At an instant, a thick beam blasted out from his super cannon.
However, Knight Balmain also sensed the super cannon tracking him, so he quickly stepped back after unleas.h.i.+ng the fists of heaven.
The 500 fists of heaven partly collided with the thick beam from the super cannon in mid air, and half of the holy forces within them were washed away.
The other half slammed against the star light protection circle’s energy s.h.i.+eld, and lightning spread throughout its surface.
If the star light protection circle was not enchanted by so many 5 star magic circles from h.e.l.l, it would be shattered already. But with the support of countless gems, Abel’s star light protection circle was basically the strongest thing behind the guardian wings. As long as it was not continuously being attacked, no single attack would break it.
Knight Balmain was still very confident in his attack as he was stepping back.
Even with half of the power taken away, not many energy s.h.i.+elds could withstand the force of a few G.o.d ranks.
The guardian wings’ energy s.h.i.+eld was no ordinary energy s.h.i.+eld. It was the acc.u.mulation of faith, and the energy it needed was huge.
But to his disappointment, all the star light protection circle’s energy s.h.i.+eld did was shake a little and return to normal.
