Chapter 1386 Smack In The Face
Knight Balmain was very baffled, but he did not have time to pause.
They were all locked down by the 500 stone-throwers, and his intuition told him the incoming attack would be dangerous.
As the 5 god rank knights kept flashing, energy balls exploded around them.
Abel was no longer as worried. Even all 5 of those god rank knights attacking together did not break his defense.
It was an experiment to test how strong his star light protection circle was. As long as his energy did not directly slam into him with their world, he should be fine.
As time dragged on, he felt even better. His mission was not to kill those knights but to buy enough time for the Howling castle to build.
Knight Balmain and his team tried a few more attacks, but they just could not pause.
With those stone throwers around, they just could not attack continuously.
“Back!” Knight Balmain was furious, but he still had not lost his rationality, so he lowered his voice.
Finally, the knights changed direction and charged away. Once they were 3000 meters away, those stone throwers stopped, and they were out of the chaotic environment.
Abel also stopped the super cannon since it was the most effective as a distractor.
Instead, he turned the aim to where the knights were heading.
“That thing is a turtle shell! We can’t break it!” Knight Felix shook his head. The relentless attacks were very draining to their spirit. They were basically jumping through life and death, and it had been countless years since they felt this way. Their intuitions were so good at noticing danger it would be a problem if the threats were coming from all directions.
“We can’t keep attacking like this, I feel like my intuition might start to have errors if we continue!” Knight Balmain lowered his voice.
The intuition was not invincible, and the threat of those stone throwers was a clear example.
Although their attacks could not kill them, the fire elements within them could still burn their bodies which kept triggering their intuition.
Considering how high stakes this invasion was, a single error could cost their lives.
Therefore, stepping back and coming up with another plan was the best idea.
“Let’s go back, we can’t stop the Howling Castle or avenge Hucks!” Knight Christian suggested.
He was rational, and he knew what was best.
“But we still need to make them pay!” Knight Balmain turned to the 6 legendary wizards from a far and lowered his voice.
He saw them long ago, but they were just too insignificant.
However, doing something was better than doing nothing at this point.
“I agree, just kill those 6 legendary wizards!” WIzard Felix nodded.
“I agree too!’ The other 3 knights also nodded.
Therefore, Knight Balmain and his team changed direction.
Abel always kept an eye on those knights since he never knew if they would actually go all out to directly attack with their worlds.
Doing so would maximize the hit rate of his super cannon, which was why Abel could not shift his attention.
But to his surprise, the knights actually changed targets and headed towards the 6 legendary wizards sent by the wizard union.
They broke out from their formation, making each of them harder to hit.
As for those wizards, their power of the wills was still fixed on their surveillance circle since a god rank’s power of the will could send them into critical condition with just. A touch.
Just when they thought they were safe, the knights suddenly charged towards them.
“Run!” Wizard Galon yelled.
He always planned for the worst, or maybe just because he was too afraid to die, so he always had 2 moves in a flash spell prepared on his hands. Immediately, he flashed towards the Defence Wall of Doomsday.
It was also at that moment a god rank energy blushed behind him, and all the other wizards paused as they were still preparing their spells.
5 legendary wizards froze on the stop.
Since the god rank energy was still far away, it did not kill them initially.
But as the second round of god rank energy washed over, it also came with a wave of murder, and 5 legendary lights shot up.
Wizard Galon ignited another flash and escaped the second round of energy. By that point, there was nothing in his mind other than igniting moves in a flash.
He was breaking his personal record, but still, he was not the fastest one around.
The knights speeded through the 5 legendary lights, and soon Wizard Galon felt a strand of god rank energy almost brushing against his back.
Without hesitation, he took out a move in a flash scroll. If he didn’t use it, he knew his power of the will would be frozen.
He kept taking the scrolls out, and after igniting 6 of them, he dragged them out some distance again.
It was all the scrolls he had, so he was basically staring death right in the face.
It was at that moment 8 god rank wizards flashed out from the defense wall of Doomsday to save him.
Those god rank wizards had no choice. Since the surveillance circle was still broadcasting throughout the continent, the wizards union’s reputation would fall if they did nothing.
When Wizard Galon saw those god ranks, he felt his heart lifting as though he was resurrected from death.
But it was because of this the stress in him faded, and he was flashing nowhere as fast.
He was just a second from those god rank wizards, and the smile on his face only grew wider.
However, it was also at that moment everything came to an end. 5 god rank energy brushed against him and destroyed his soul, sending his lifeless body flying forward. Actually, knight Balmain could kill him long ago, but he just wanted to give him some hope and embarrass those 8 god rank wizards in the process. They had especially targeted the soul and kept the surveillance circle going.
As Wizard Galon dropped down, the entire continent saw a legendary light shoot up through the surveillance circle. Under its glow, the furious look on those legendary wizards looked even clearer.
But soon, the broadcast was cut off as the surveillance circle was smashed into pieces through its impact with the ground.
Knight Balmain smirked at the 8 god rank wizards and quickly speeded back in his knight formation.
The death of Wizard Galon triggered the wizards, and they reacted out of instinct.
“Chase after them!” Wizard Smith suddenly roared in a fury.
The wizards flashed forward, and Knight Balmain used his old trick. He summoned large amounts of preaching hammers from his world with his knights and threw them back as he flew.
The wizards were extremely cautious. Although the preaching hammer was not the most powerful attack, and it was rarely used in direct combat, it did not have an attribute, so there was no way of resisting it.
But most importantly, the attack path of those preaching hammer was extremely mysterious. Even the knight who unleashed it could not accurately predict its path. Therefore, it worked wonders well in situations like this.
All the knights needed to focus on was to speed forward as fast as possible with their energy aura.
But for those wizards, they had to follow while trying to dodge the preaching hammers.
After all, no one could guarantee if the knights would suddenly change the path to add another strike if a wizard was injured.
As Wizard Smith chased after the knights, he regained his rationality and realized no one would be able to witness them even if they managed to kill those knights.
Therefore, he came to a halt under the flying preaching hammers.
“stop!” He called.
