Lord of Glory

Chapter 71: Escalation of the fierce fight

"Brother!" Orkney saw that the huge monster was about to crush the thin O'Neill; his eyes were red, and he was anxious.

With one long step, he rushed forward, knocking O'Neill away at once, trying to block the terrifying blow with his shield.

Unfortunately, Orkney underestimated the power of this monster. There was only a loud bang, and under Aberleigh's overwhelming, terrifying power, the floor cracked and flew up. Orkney did not even have the time to scream and was instantly crushed with his hard shield and sturdy armor. Blood and internal organs splashed out, staining Aberleigh, who was towering in the center, red, bearing out a ferocious aura.

"Brother!" O'Neill's eyes were wide open. Shaking the staff in his hand, a fiery fireball shot out from the front of the staff, smashing into Aberleigh's body with a boom!

"Ow ow ow!" Aberleigh screamed miserably. The strong attack sent his huge body flying, knocking down the stone pillar next to him, and he fell into the ruins.

Watching all this, Paladin's face changed. His hands were about to break the necks of the two women when a sound of arrows piercing through the air made Paladin's throat rise instantly!

With a "whoosh", a sharp arrow grazed Paladin's cheek and flew past him, which was then nailed to the wall behind him with a thud. Paladin, who was a little dazed, fixed his eyes and saw Liriel, who was full of hatred, in the distance drawing another arrow and was about to shoot it. Paladin's face suddenly became extremely cold!

Whoosh! With another arrow, Paladin placed the girl in his right hand across his chest, and the sharp arrow pierced deeply into her body.

"Oh! My daughter!" Aaron painfully saw her own daughter being used as a shield by this bastard. The incomparable amount of hatred made her break away from Paladin's hand and bite him on the neck.

Without the slightest effort, Paladin's hand immediately coalesced into a lightsaber and slapped Aaron with his backhand. With a click, the lightsaber immediately passed through Aaron's delicate neck to the back of her head! And even before she died, the hatred in her eyes still refused to dissipate.

"You beast!" Liriel roared, full of? resentment. In a split second, the arrow in her hand was immediately released, bringing a sliver of brilliance straight to Paladin.

However, Paladin's All-Seeing Eye came into play once again. In his vision, this thundering arrow was just so predictable, with a very clear trajectory.

Unbothered, he stretched out his hand calmly in the air to grab the arrow. He then looked at Liriel's shocked face with a cruel smile.

"Today none of you will be able to escape!" Paladin said so. And with a casual flip of his hand, Aaron's body just slid off the lightsaber like a rag that fell to the ground.

At this time, a furious O'Neill shouted loudly, "Liriel, shoot the calf!"

"Yes!" Liriel, who was also full of hatred, once again bent her bow and loaded an arrow to shoot at Paladin quickly.

However, Paladin disdainfully took a step back. With the special ability of the All-Seeing Eye, Paladin knew the moment she shot this arrow that as long as he took a step back, she would never be able to shoot him.

He was even in the mood to sneer. Were these guys dazzled by hatred? No matter how, it is impossible for them to defeat him at this moment.

However, the smirking Paladin suddenly heard a slight but heavy thud---cautious and swift---coming from behind him. It was impossible for such a small sound to be heard. Yet Paladin's All-Seeing Eye could make him hear any sound around him very clearly. As soon as Paladin's 360-degree, all-round viewing angle was opened, he immediately saw the assassin who had somehow slipped behind him. Raising his poison-smeared dagger without making a sound, he was about to stab Paladin in the back. No one can escape from this distance. Everyone was anticipating the great success--- Paladin's defeat. O'Neill even saw a ray of hope...when Paladin suddenly laughed.

Eyes still looking straight at O'Neill with the left hand yanked back, a firm grip pulled the assassin's hand mid-air, throwing him forward with a deadly thud to the ground!

"Ahhhhh!"

Before Liriel's fiancé and part-time assassin could react, Paladin stepped hard on his face and said with a frustating grin, "Little guy, your heartbeat is too loud."

And with the force in his hands, he tore off the man's arm, alive, with a fierce blow.

"Bastard! Die!"

The assassin in severe pain did not even care about the blood spurting from his shoulder. He wanted to kill the beast in front of him before losing all his strength. After all, his years of skill were not for nothing.

One of his arms was already torn apart by Paladin. And while he was still stepping on it, the man turned over on the spot and got rid of Paladin's foot. He jumped up, took out another short knife from the cuff with his remaining hand, and went straight for Paladin's head.

But in the face of such a counterattack, Paladin responded very calmly. He gently raised his hand and disdainfully said, "You annoying fly, shut up."

A large number of light elements madly converge on Paladin's raised hand. And just like swatting a fly, he slapped the assassin who was about to stab him in the face with a dagger.

Slap! He slapped the assassin right in the face. The latter immediately screamed and flew out. To everyone's surprise, his face suddenly turned red and hot, then burst into flames. No matter how he rolled back and forth in pain, the flames did not weaken in the slightest. And not long after, the fire had wrapped around his entire body. The heavy smell of burning filled the surroundings.

"Nooo!!!" Seeing her fiancé being burned alive, Liriel screamed frantically as if she had gone mad. Her hands were incredibly fast at drawing arrows, one after another, aiming at Paladin.

"Hmph, another fly."

Paladin shook his hand leisurely. Every arrow shot at the vitals was actually deflected by his shaking hand. But before he could fully please himself, he felt a sudden flash of light before his eyes.

A powerful electric light bombarded him incomparably quickly. Under such a crisis, Paladin's face suddenly changed, and he subconsciously laid his right hand across his chest, trying to block the thunder. It happened so quickly that only a loud bang could be heard. Paladin flew out of the mansion with the stone sculptures beside him and the fragments of the stone slabs on the floor. Covered in electric light, he landed outside the mansion.

On the other hand, O'Neill held up the wand, gasping for breath. He immediately took out a bottle of potion and two green stickers from the bag. After putting the stickers on his temples, he drank the potion with a fierce gulp. This is a method specifically used by the Forest of Hellite to restore magic much faster than ordinary meditation and simple potions. When Liriel saw a pile of ruins outside the manor, she could not help asking, "Is he dead?"

"No, it can't be that simple." O'Neill's face showed gloom. His eyes were filled with despair. In his heart, he could not help but ask himself, "This guy, can he really be beaten to death?"

Sure enough, as soon as his words fell, the ruins suddenly exploded with a bang. Paladin, whose robe was somewhat torn and burned, came out with an angry face. At this moment, dazzling golden crystals appeared on his palm and wrist, with one or two electric arcs flickering.
