YM778.TV Chapter 497 Return
Even the Berserk Werewolves they fought recently would still have the instincts to know whether to retreat or not. If they can retreat, they would certainly do so.
After all, most of the werewolves were shot by Silver Bullets and after getting hit, they wouldn\'t rashly dash at their enemies and they would actually take cover to remove the Silver Bullets that are stopping their regenerative abilities.
On the other hand, these Cultists would trigger an explosion in their bodies as long as they\'ve gotten near to the members of the Slayer Squad!
"Everyone! Retreat! We—"
Luna wasn\'t able to finish her words as a series of explosions suddenly covered the entire valley.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The Cultists exploded one by one creating a massive disturbance in the surrounding mana… After all, they were entirely covered by Aether and these explosions were starting to even bend the fabric of space!
It was difficult to escape once caught by the explosion!
To save themselves, they probably have to use life-saving magic treasure, endure it with their bodies, or use an incredibly powerful Mana Art that can push them away from the wave of explosions.
This lasted for over five minutes before the surroundings started calming down. The place was filled with rubbles as the ground has completely collapsed.
At this point, the battlefield became completely silent. The presence of humans and Celestials has completely disappeared as if they have all died in the explosion.
About 15 more minutes had passed when changes in the surroundings occurred.
Within the rubbles of the explosions, a huge boulder started cracking… It was slow and steady but it is certainly splitting the boulder apart.
Crack… Crack… Crack… Boom!
After a few minutes, the boulder was shattered into many pieces as a person suddenly came out of it.
It was Luna who was still wearing her Celestial Armor… It was already in terrible condition and as soon as she had gotten out, it immediately deactivated and turned into a dull cube.
It finally used up all its energy.
\'I\'m finally out…\'
Luna struggled to stand up but her eyes remained wary… She looked at the surroundings and heaved a sigh of relief as soon as she noticed there are no enemies around.
After a while, Agatha and two more Celestials came out. They were in a bad condition because they do not have armor similar to hers. Anyway, she wasn\'t too worried about the three since they weren\'t in a critical state.
After another minute, she finally sensed the presence of the surviving Grand Magus and Grand Knights… Soon, she was able to gather everyone and sighed.
They were truly defeated this time.
Luckily for Millie and Ceri, they were saved by their Artifact which was probably gifted by Vincent.
Roy and Terrence didn\'t survive while Lar\'s right hand was caught in the explosion…
As for the Grand Magus, only Archon Iori has died… Although his Void\'s Crack Amulet was activated, he was too close to the Cultists who had triggered an explosion…
It disrupted the space and he was forcefully sent out of the void and got caught in the explosion…
As for Levent, Thyrus, and Brycen, they had luckily survived thanks to the higher version of the amulet they received from Ignacy plus the treasures they got from Vincent. Unfortunately, they were still heavily injured, especially Thyrus who have lost his left arm and right leg.
Patriarch Leon, on the other hand, was prepared for this kind of disaster as he brought the treasure of their Zemin Clan for nine generations… Although the treasure that he used had claimed his vision in exchange for saving his life, he didn\'t mind it.
He didn\'t feel bitter even after becoming blind…
He even felt that this is an opportunity for his family to be truly part of the city. After all, even if they were living in the city and their members were accepted as guards or soldiers, they weren\'t able to get a position above that.
Their promotion was basically impossible as long as they are part of the Zemin Clan. However, with his contribution today, he believes that he would be able to get a decent reward once he managed to return alive.
\'They\'re finally coming…\' Leon thought as he sensed the presence of an incoming aircraft… Because the magic artifact he used was still functioning, his heightened senses even detected the presence of the aircraft from afar.
Not even the other Celestials noticed this aircraft.
Previously, they were notified that aside from the War Eagle Squadron that was tasked to bombard the werewolves, the city would also be sending another aircraft to bring them away and it is boarded by other Celestial Beings to protect them and even deal with any remnant enemies…
They were the reinforcements that he was waiting for…
With their presence, there shouldn\'t be any more problems even if the Werewolves were still here.
But as he was feeling relieved and wanted to relax while waiting for their rescuers, he noticed some changes happening.
"W-what?!"
Suddenly, he sensed that the aircraft from Vera City was blocked by five other flying airships! These airships were huge and seem to be one of those cargo ships…
However, what was boarding these ships were humans… Furthermore, he could sense one of the Paragons there! It should be the same man who was previously carrying a huge axe.
This Paragon has a mighty aura that he could easily distinguish from the thousand martial artists…
At this point, his magic artifact stopped functioning and he could no longer sense them… His original Mana Sensitivity zone can only reach 100 to 150 meters so he has no way of sensing what was going on…
"Leon…" Luna called his name as she noticed his grim face… The others were also looking at him but since they were recuperating, none of them bothered asking and just waited for him to speak.
This prompted Leon to tell them what he had found out with the help of his artifact…
However, before he could fully explain what happened, the two other Paragons they\'d sent away have come back with reinforcements from the Martial Arts Alliance!
