YM778.TV Chapter 795 - Defeat!
Their hatred seemed bottomless and their power was a nightmare to Doaf and his mages. Their unstoppable charge had to cease there, while fighting those weird monsters who came to put an end to their advantage.
Yet when these monsters tried to stop Arthur, his own monster did its job and killed whatever came its way.
That slowed down Arthur\'s charge for a bit, but he wasn\'t affected much like Doaf\'s front.
"Stubborn kid, aren\'t you?" the old lady laughed as if she was enjoying this moment. "Let me see how you handle more of them then."
Arthur saw the portal getting enlarged when the old lady injured her arm and painted it with her blood. Something changed in the portal at this moment, making it shine brighter and look unsettled.
Then more and more monsters emerged, and all turned their backs to Doaf and his mages and started running towards Arthur.
"This is bad!" Arthur knew if this continued, his monster wouldn\'t be able to stop them anymore.
His monster was acting like a killing machine, using all its tentacles to kill everywhere around. However this killing machine had capacity and if it got stuck at any point here, Arthur would be endangered.
\'Use your new technique now,\' the golden dragon said, \'you didn\'t acquire it for show y\'know.\'
Arthur\'s eyes shone brightly before he had an issue to worry about. "What about my golden pearl? Can it sustain the drainage?"
\'It\'s just got leveled up,\' the golden dragon said, \'sure it will sustain. Also it\'s a chance to know how much you can drain from each use.\'
"Ok," Arthur nodded while the new herd of monsters was drawing fast at him, "how can I use it?"
\'The same way you used it before,\' the golden dragon said, \'try to circulate the energy inside your body.\'
"Like I did back when I leveled it up?"
\'Indeed.\'
Arthur took a deep breath before closing up his eyes and let his consciousness sleep deeply inside his body.
The moment he reached the golden pearl he was astonished to see its shape now. It was so tiny and small at first, yet now it has turned into a head size at least.
And it had many fine filaments dancing around, acting on their own.
The moment he touched these filaments, the golden pearl shook and its energy started to gush out. It moved fast towards his meridians and through his vessels until it filled both.
Then his entire body shook before the previous ray of golden blue light shot up to the depths of the sky.
"It\'s working," Arthur opened his eyes with a triumphant smile on his face, "and it only took one fifth of the energy."
\'You can use it five times then,\' Gege said in joy.
"Can you supplement it?" Arthur hurriedly asked.
\'Sure, let me try,\' Gege then went into silence and Arthur totally ignored the burst of energy from his released pillar of light.
He wanted to see if Gege could help him in replenishing the golden pearl.
"You can," Arthur slowly opened his eyes while gazing up at the knocked down foes all around, "you can replenish up to one tenth of it… not bad."
Despite it being a small portion, it was still worth celebrating.
\'I believe I can continue to replenish your energy if given more time,\' Gege seemed to be annoyed and not happy with such a result.
"At least you\'ll help in recharging it after each battle," Arthur tried to give her some comfort, "don\'t push yourself too hard."
\'Humph,\' yet she seemed more stubborn than usual.
\'Ding! It\'s not time to chit chat here,\' the system suddenly said, \'Ding! your ability will paralyze them for five minutes. Use them wisely!\'
Arthur nodded as he knew his system was right. The next moment he rejoined the killing spree all around while the old lady at the far distance looked quite enraged.
She clenched the tip of her staff angrily before she painted the portal again with more of her blood. It seemed that what Arthur did got already on her nerves.
This fight turned into a personal feud with that little boy who came from the lower realms by mistake and dared to challenge her and ruin her plans.
She took this as an insult to her pride, something she wouldn\'t allow at all!
Plus she also knew the base of all the disasters that happened to her plans so far came from this little kid. Killing him would help her in eliminating a variable, a variable she didn\'t see coming and couldn\'t predict its action even now.
"Go kill that fly for me," she shouted in extreme rage and boundless hatred to all the mages and monsters who poured out of the portal.
Arthur saw all this coming out from the enlarged portal for the second time. The scene looked like an apocalypse just landed in this part of the world.
The mages and monsters appeared to be like locusts of flies coming with no end from that portal. "How much more did she have in there? An entire planet or what?!!"
Arthur was shocked and slightly terrified with this scene. If before his only threat was to lose his momentum, now his life was on the brink of extinction here.
"I won\'t let you touch him," yet from far away Amera stood with difficulty while watching what that old aunt of Aemie was doing. She knew if she didn\'t interfere now and stop her, Arthur would be in a very dangerous situation.
A situation that would be beyond salvage.
Yet as she was about to use her technique again, her body refused. She gushed out a large amount of blood before collapsing on the ground with a weak pulse and strong will to live.
"Some… Someone… Please… Help…" she could only mutter, pray for anyone to be brave enough and interfere to stop her.
Doaf didn\'t hear her or notice what happened just now, yet he knew if he didn\'t stop that crazy bitch his young master would be done for.
He didn\'t need anyone to order him before he tried to lead his mages forward. However the more he advanced, the more relentless his enemy became.
They weren\'t those weak fries he used to kill since the start of this war. Each mage, each monster seemed to be on par of his own strength or even slightly better.
"How the hell did she find all these beasts?!!" he couldn\'t help but exclaim in extreme pain, "I need to reach her… I must!" he didn\'t care for his life anymore and didn\'t even wait for his mages to catch up.
Like a lone wolf fighting, he darted inside the condensed ranks of his enemies without pause.
But even with such reckless moves out of his desperation, he couldn\'t get that far with cheer will.
That old lady seemed too far to anyone\'s reach at this moment.
\'Ding! Use your technique again!\' the system screamed in alarming ways, \'Ding! Do it now!\'
Arthur didn\'t have anything in his hand to do but to use his technique once more. Like before all his enemies were knocked to the ground and that gave him room to breathe.
And to Doaf a space to move!
"On me!" Doaf instantly screamed while trying to use this precious chance to reach that lady. He led his own scattered forces as he regrouped them and moved like a tip of a spear towards her.
"Fools… you are all fools!" Yet that crazy old lady laughed before another wave of deadly monsters and mages poured out of the portal like nothing just happened.
"It\'s not working," Arthur had to see the bitter reality here. No matter how much he used his technique, he wouldn\'t be able to change the final outcome of this war.
That old lady seemed to have a link to endless reinforcements of freakishly strong mages and monsters. He even considered retreating and regrouping with everyone else.
However, something told him that if he left this place now he would lose everything. Plus he didn\'t guarantee that the remaining forces would be enough to form a proper army out of them.
"Die!" that crazy loud shout came from that old lady while the swarms of her forces moved right and left, aiming to kill everyone at the same time.
\'You should retreat now!\' The golden dragon didn\'t hesitate to give him the most logical advice at this moment.
However Arthur didn\'t move. Something deep inside his soul warned him from doing that.
And he decided to trust his gut feeling on this.
