Chapter 433: Crisis 1

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The black cloud in the sky was suddenly rent apart.

A huge silver triangular shield descended and merged together with the blue light wall.

It looked as though the Light Wall had an additional silver shield from afar.

The entire Light Wall was completely covered by it.

When the totem users who had been running for their lives noticed this scene, they started cheering. Suddenly.

Boom!!

There was a loud boom and another section of the Light Wall was destroyed by the Giant Angel Stone Sculpture, and a huge amount of creatures came flooding through the gap.

Roar~~~!!!

A wolf's howl echoed from the other side of the barrier, sounding as if it originated from the sky.

With the combination of heavy footsteps, what appeared walking towards the Light Wall was a white giant wolf standing at nearly thirty meters tall. Its rear was something similar to an anaconda slithering on the floor. White flames were flickering on its body, yet this illusive fire didn't seem to be burning anything at all.

The giant wolf was walking through the sea of creatures, similar to a large creature walking over the ants; every step it took would flatten multiple smaller creatures. As it set its gaze onto the silver triangular shield in front of it, its pace gradually hastened and it started racing towards it.

In the end, it went wild and leaped towards the triangular shield.

Kaboom!!!

The giant wolf collided with the triangular shield.

*************

Garen observed Beckstone and his teammates who'd managed to burst through the golden veil, on the Black Crow King which was slowly gliding down far away while black smoke circled around its body.

"The Black Crow King is definitely something. It didn't fall immediately after being poisoned by mine and its own poisonous smoke." Garen muttered.

How did they find the flaw in this Magic Array? He didn't understand how they did it. Although this Magic Array wasn't strong, it wasn't something that could be broken within a short amount of time. He didn't expect Beckstone and his teammates to dispel it in such a short amount of time.

As the thought of the Kingdom in danger flashed through his mind, Garen felt that this incident might very well be related towards the Eleven Royalties.

Ivycius was still waiting where he'd been after he came down from the precipice. Although he was halfway through a full recovery, his totem was still heavily damaged so he didn't really have any strength. He could do nothing but be a bystander.

"What should I do now?" Ivycius asked himself. As a demon dragon, his life force was directly linked to Garen.

"Idea?" Garen was emotionless. "Beckstone and his two teammates have been poisoned by my poison smoke and as totem users, they are able to resist the poison and return towards the Terraflor Society. However, as commoners, the Eleven Royalties would have no chance to withstand it and would definitely go to where they could possible dispel the poison in the shortest time."

"The place where could possible detox?"

"Do you know who is the best at dispelling poison in the Terraflor Society?"

Ivycius shook his head. "However, I do know that the Terraflor Society and Obscuro Society have temporarily allied together."

Garen suddenly smiled.

"Let's go, I will help you and recover your injuries!"

"Do you know who is it going to be?" Ivicius was slightly stunned.

"You'll know when the time comes." Garen turned around and headed towards the Palace. "Let's go help His Majesty!"

It didn't matter to him if Avic was dead or alive. His main objective was to obtain the Original Heirloom that was in Avic's possession! It was what Garen really wanted.

He'd done everything he could to the best of his abilities. If history were to remain the same…

***************

Avic had arrived in a secluded area within the Palace as he stumbled with blood trickling out from his mouth.

Just as he entered the main hall, countless purple bats flew over his head and completely blocked the entrance of the main hall.

He turned his head around and glanced at them before he walked directly to the throne and slammed on the hand rest with his right hand.

Buzz!

He immediately sank to the underground at a very fast pace. After he disappeared, a new identical throne resurfaced and everything appeared normal once again.

Avic was sitting alone on the throne as he went downwards via a cylindrical tube-like tunnel.

"Your Majesty Avic, the third layer of defense of the West Farm has been breached. The third layer of defense of the West Farm has been…"

A mechanical female voice could be heard inside the tube.

"Aisha, tell Georbas… to return immediately. We need to focus our strength and defend the Kingdom's main city! Gah!" Avic wiped off the blood beside his lips with extreme difficulty. As he spoke too fast, he immediately vomited a mouthful of blood again and dyed his royal clothes red.

"Unable to contact General Georbas." The girl immediately responded.

Avic was stunned as he felt hopeless.

"I knew it… Georbas… I didn't expect you leave me…"

The throne soon brought him into a small secret room deep in the underground.

The secret room was completely empty without any sorts of decoration at all and it looked like a natural cave.

A stone pillar resembling a black hourglass was at the center of the cave, and on top of it was a small black glass ball levitating on it.

Avic's face was completely pale at this point as he mustered all his strength to get down from the throne and walked towards the spherical glass.

"Did you hope to annihilate the Royal Household of the Kovitan Empire? Did you think it would be that easy?!!" He started to laugh like a maniac.

As he reached the side of the black glass ball, he grabbed ahold of it with his hand.

This fist-sized ball was levitating up and down on his hand.

"Although there was no successful prototype, perhaps it's enough…" He looked at this item that he'd been obsessed with for the past decade. His face was filled with emotions such as remorse, conflict, despair, and comfort.

"It's very unfortunate… If only I had another year…"

Clank!!

The spherical glass was shattered into millions of pieces as it was thrown fiercely onto the ground.

A cloud of black-purple smoke spread out from the glass ball and turned into lights as it spread everywhere silently.

Avic tried to laugh as he opened his mouth wide but he didn't utter any sound as blood started to flow out of his mouth. He stopped moving and breathing on the spot and at the same time, one of his rings on his hand started to lose its light.

***********

Inside the Blood Jade Palace.

A blue gas suddenly spread about in all directions like flowing water.

The Choking Blade in Veska's hand broke and it was as if he suddenly aged by a decade. What was originally a sixty-plus-year-old man suddenly looked like he was in his nineties as his face paled.

With both of his hands completely chopped off, God Cloud rushed out of the palace in the direction which Avic escaped.

The whole Blood Jade Palace behind him exploded and started to shake and was completely toppled down within a matter of minutes.

God Cloud was here not just to assassinate but to obtain the Original Heirloom as well.

As he followed Avic's scent, he didn't slow down her pace at all and soon arrived at the secluded area of the palace.

The groups of bats at the door shot towards her like raindrops. However, all the bats were bent to behind her back as a green light flashed in the air.

Without any hesitation, God Cloud rushed into the secluded palace.

At the moment he entered the palace.

The Defense Tactic of the whole Kingdom started to turn red. What was originally a colorless and transparent Defense Tactic Formation was dyed in layers of red halos.

Without any warning, two luxurious looking buildings in the city fired two rays of light, one white and the other yellow, directly at the palace.

The current palace had used up all of its formations before the two lights landed on the palace. The light rays turned into two white-haired old men the moment they touched the floor.

One of them was thin, tall and had very thin eyebrows as if he was malnutrition.

The other man was fat and was in a yellow robe. He had a square yellow crystal placed onto his chest. The crystal was crystal clear and strangely, it seemed to have countless of faces flashing by at all times inside it.

The expression of these two men was very stern as they looked at each other in the eye.

As they landed on the floor, a strong tremble came from below the palace.

The ground kept shaking as if there was something big rushing out from the ground.

The main hall started to tremble and the pebbles from above kept falling to the ground.

Cracks started to appear on the ground of the already deserted palace and propagated into multiple cracks.

"His Majesty is in trouble!!" One of the two old men voiced out and rushed into the entrance which led to the underground of the hall at the same time.

Cracks could be seen everywhere along the way, revealing countless corpses from the Royal Guard and Black Fire Guard and it was then that both of them started to panic.

Voices could be heard outside the area as all the remaining forces of the Kingdom arrived.

In some buildings of the palace which were completely unharmed, the female guards who were in hiding came out as they protected the princes and princesses, who were all terrified.

Princess Liv was the first one to walk out of the palace with all the guards protecting her from all directions. She was ecstatic as she saw two men passing by with great speed.

"Two Lords, please wait up!!"

Unfortunately, none of them responded to her and these two old men immediately disappeared, leaving their afterimages behind and gradually disappeared.

The Princess was stunned as her royal instinct told her that Kovitan was in serious trouble.

She stood still as she started thinking.

"Sister Night, sister Ning. Please contact the three feudal lords and it would be good if you could get ahold of Palace Master Garen as well!"

The two women by her side heeded the order and disappeared immediately. Spiritualized light glowed on their bodies as they left. Surprisingly, both of them were Spiritualized Elites.

The princess promptly decided that she would send out two of her strongest elites out in hope that they could get in contact with the powerful individuals that she had relation with.

She then stared at where the two Grand Dukes had vanished.

"Let's go! Let's go to the MingJi Temple!" The princess shouted.

"Her Highness, shouldn't we go to see how His Majesty is doing?" A middle-aged man asked softly.

"We are not qualified for that." Princess was unexpectedly calm. "It doesn't matter who wins or lose. What we should do now is wait and react accordingly."

**************

As both of the grand dukes arrived the palace, two figures appeared behind the palace temple as well.

Three individuals in heavy white armor gathered beside the two men.

Ivycius had a white cloak on him. He looked energetic as totem light flowed through his body. He had recovered all of his strength within a short amount of time.

Garen stood beside him as he smiled wryly.

In order to recover Ivycius's true strength, he had used all of the energy that he had been accumulating for the past few days and he only managed to recover half of Ivycius strength. This made him understood how beneficial the Dragon's Heart was.

If it was solely based on the strength of absorbing life force, It would be an astronomical value for him to recover himself.

One had to realize that the amount of life force he had given to Ivycius was enough to fully heal himself thrice!

As he was healing Ivycius, Garen had replenished the five life forces that he had exhausted earlier. Those five life forces had cost him at least a hundred potential points to replenish. The accumulation of more than two hundred worth of potential points had become about a hundred points or so. This made Garen realized how fast the consumption of potential points was.

Not only had Ivycius not supplied him with any potential points during their uphill battles, he made him lose them instead.

However, these losses were worth it as Garen glanced at Ivycius, who was currently giving orders to the Silver Palace's subordinates.

It was different from his Black Fire Palace as the Silver Palace had three more elites excluding Ivycius.

These three people's nicknames were Lily, Narcissus and Rose respectively and they were all totem users elites who were taught and nurtured by Ivycius himself. They were the true disciples of Ivycius.

Among the three of them, two of them were women and the remaining one was a man. They were all very young as well, where the guy was the youngest, aged at 19 years old and the oldest among the two girls was 23 years old. They were all gifted elites of the Silver Palace.

"Teacher, are you sure you're fine?" Lily and Narcissus were both attentive girls as they immediately noticed the small details from Ivycius's attire.

"I'm fine. As long as the Black Fire Palace Master is around, I will be fine even when I'm heavily injured so don't worry about me." Ivycius explained clearly. "The Black Fire Palace Master and I are old friends and we didn't manage to recognize each other all this time. We unexpectedly reconciled this time. If I am not around, you guys can find Palace Master Garen to settle the problems for you."

"Alright teacher." Three of them were very respectful towards Ivycius and they had reached the peak of form three. They would be able to enter Spiritualization state when the opportunity arrived. They were all different from the typical form three users as they were all very experienced and had already battle against Spiritualization elites. Aside from Rose who was slightly weaker, the remaining two were able to defend for themselves against the spiritualization elites and once they evolved, their strength would definitely be much greater than the typical spiritualization totem users.
