Chapter 568: Facing Off Hecate Alone
The arrival of the third army made the two forces on the battlefield feel alarmed.
Looking at the huge number of soldiers that almost covered the skies, there should be around ten million of them!
"Look! Isn"t that the flag of the Hall of Creation?"
"Indeed! That"s the flag of Hall Master Lilith"s army!"
The soldiers of the Hall of Might felt invigorated at the arrival of their comrade. Their morale almost doubled upon realizing that their reinforcements has arrived.
With their hopes rekindled, the soldiers of the Hall of Might began a fierce counterattack! They ignored the injuries in their bodies and fought ferociously against the Heaven Sword Army and its allied forces.
Meanwhile, Hecate frowned when he saw a woman with a stunning body moving in his direction. Her face was partially covered by a veil and her eyes were wrapped by a thin light green cloth. Despite her facial features being partially hidden, everyone could tell that this woman was very beautiful.
"Hecate, I"ve come to support you under the command of the Lord." The woman spoke in a soft and gentle voice.
The soldiers of the Hall of Creation immediately joined the fray, destroying the balance of the battle.
With the addition of ten million opponents, the Heaven Sword Army was pushed back almost instantly. The casualties on their side also increased and the battle was slowly tilting to the opponent"s favor.
Hecate frowned as he stared at the graceful figure in front of him. He had only seen Lilith"s face once without her veil and the green cloth, but he could never forget that immaculate image. There were no words that could describe her beauty and the only one who came close to her in terms of appearance was Elena. Hecate also tried to court her after seeing her appearance, but Lilith rejected him almost immediately. He tried to use his power when he was rejected by Lilith, but her spiritual attacks proved to be lethal to him so he chose to back down.
"I can handle them even without your help. You may go back to Asgard, Lilith." Hecate said in discontent.
Lilith ignored his words and turned her attention to the Celestials on the opposing side. Although her eyes were covered by a piece of cloth, she could still clearly "see" everything using her spiritual vision. As to why she was hiding her eyes and face, it was related to her power.
Lilith was a woman with a limitless charm that just by taking a single glance at her true appearance was enough to make a man enraptured. Even women were not immune to her charms and it was because of this that she had to cover her face with a veil and wrap her eyes with a piece of cloth.
Seeing that she was ignoring him, Hecate"s face twitched and a look of rage flashed in his gaze.
As if unaware of his deathly stare, Lilith continued to observe the Celestials of the opposing side through her spiritual perception. "Asmodeus, Elena, Jian w.a.n.g, and two more unidentified Celestials..."
Hecate frowned when he heard her words. He thought that there were only four of them, but it seems like he had overlooked one more person. "There"s one more Celestial?"
Lilith nodded her head lightly and pointed at the artificial forest that was created by Elyssier. "To be more accurate, it is a spirit body that has reached the late stage of the Celestial G.o.d Realm. From the aura it exudes, it should be the spirit body of the Eonic Ragarwood Tree that Elena is protecting in the Southern Region."
Despite hiding her aura, Elyssier was actually discovered by Lilith! Such a strong spiritual perception was even beyond Jiu Shen"s power! Perhaps this woman"s spiritual power was even stronger than Elena"s!
Hecate weighed the pros and cons after hearing her words. Fighting against five Celestials was difficult for him even if he has Troy and Sebastian. Not to mention that the man holding a weird-looking great heavy sword was giving him a dangerous sensation. "Alright. Since it is the Lord"s command, I am willing to accept your help." He gritted his teeth with a hint of shame.
Since when did he need someone"s help to eliminate his enemies? He had to make sure that Asmodeus and this bunch of trash would die to wash away this shameful feeling!
"Okay." Lilith answered calmly as if it was natural. To her, the words of the Lord were absolute!
After getting her reply, Hecate turned his gaze towards the young man with long silver hair. He could see the fighting intent burning in the man"s eyes. Hecate scoffed in disdain when he saw this.
He pointed his huge hammer towards Jiu Shen in a provocative manner as he shouted. "Lowly human, since you wish to fight with me so much, I"ll grant you your wis.h.!.+"
His voice was filled with arrogance. He didn"t think highly of the humans at all. In fact, he disdained them!
Jiu Shen chuckled when he saw this. He didn"t think that the Hall Master of the Hall of Might was actually a simple-minded brute. Even Lao Gou was a lot smarter than this guy.
"Jian w.a.n.g, change of plans. You, Elena, and Elyssier will face that woman wearing a veil. She seems to be more dangerous than Hecate. Try to hold her back as long as possible. Asmodeus, you take care of Troy and Sebastian." Jiu Shen sent a message to his comrades.
Jian w.a.n.g was surprised when he heard the voice transmission. He turned his head at Jiu Shen and asked with a reproachful voice. "You plan to fight Hecate alone?! Are you out of your mind?!"
Jiu Shen ignored him and hovered in front of Hecate. "You think too highly of yourself, Hecate. Asmodeus may fear you, but I don"t!" He muttered with a smile on his handsome face.
Hecate"s face changed and he immediately raised his hammer and swung it down hard as he bellowed. "You d.a.m.n b.a.s.t.a.r.d! Die!"
