Paragon of Death

227 Chapter 226: Unexpected turn of events

Buzz!

Everyone frowned at his words but Gerald remained calm.

“The old man meant you are meant to protect Gyro. Gyro Kingdom is your world” Gerald explained but the enemy shook his head slightly harder than usual before levitating into the air as if he wanted to stand on the same level as the others.

“Gyro Kingdom is part of this world. Humans killing the gyro Kingdom. Living beings are killing the world, the old and new gods are killing this world, and there will be no Gyro with no God’s vein. Gyro will stand but humans will fall” Cassidy said as killing intent finally surged from his eyes.

Hmph!

Dillain stood between the enemy and his allies as he threw his palm forward and it felt like he was pulling the world along!

Buzzz!

The golden-haired youth frowned as an invisible force assaulted him fiercely, pushing him away from the trio.

Shit!

.....

Dillian frowned as he saw golden light explode from the enemy and quickly overwhelm his power.

He couldn’t resist!

Pa!

Gerald held his little brother by the collar and pulled him behind as fierce golden phoenix flames exploded from his body, forming a sphere around the trio!

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

Gerald’s eyes were calm but blood trickled down his nose. His gaze seemed shaky and weak for a while but at a certain moment, he turned cold.

Now!

Bang!

Seeing a space to slip through, Gerald shot towards the enemy, slipping through the fiery sphere as he skillfully maneuvered his way through the enemy attacks and quickly closed the gap between them.

Immortal pathway: Phoenix Emperor!

Gerald’s eyes surged with killing intent as his body began to mutate rapidly. Their hands and legs became talons and his body gradually transformed into that of a mighty golden bird consumed in golden flames.

“YOU DARE CHALLENGE THE SON OF HEAVEN? EVEN THE GODS CAN’T SAVE YOU FROM ME!” Gerald’s furious bellow reached the heavens as the mighty golden phoenix charged forward.

Hmph!

Cassidy showed no sign of retreating as he casually threw his hand open to take the attack head-on.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

The two clashed and powerful shockwaves rocked Gyro, creating a powerful Fiery storm with the two combatants trapped inside and everyone else trapped out.

Brrrr!

The golden flames surged like a geyser reaching the heavens. Even Armanthos who saw this paled as he saw this.

YOUR HIGHNESS!

BROTHER!

Everyone was alarmed by Duke Hail and Dillains’s terrified cries.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

The two traded countless blows and none was the better.

Bang!

Cassidy struck his hand deep into the Phoenix’s chest causing it to let out a painful cry!

Cawwwwww!

Gerald’s eyes shone with resilience as he bit down on Cassidy’s shoulders and wrapped his wings around him, before plunging toward the ground!

Boom!

A large mushroom-shaped explosion erupted and from the flames, a body was flung out. It belonged to Gerald whose eyes were wide open with a massive hole in his chest.

He was dead!

Buzzz!

Dilian and Duke Hail paled as both knew how capable Gerald is. For him to be killed after a short exchange was something they did not expect.

They watched as his body lit up in flames and transformed into a golden egg.

Xiu!

Duke Hail and Dillian appeared in front of the egg and looked towards the flames with deep frowns ingrained on their faces. They watched as a figure emerged from the flames with his golden hair fluttering beautifully as he approached with a cruel smile on his face.

Demon!

If they thought Damon was scary, looking at this foe now, they finally understood what true terror really meant.

Heh!

Duel Hail revealed a smile as he threw his jacket away, revealing his bare chest as he began walking towards the enemy at a steady but slow pace.

Thud!

Thud!

Two figures walked past Dillian, causing his eyes to dilate.

Elf Queen

Orc chieftain!

Two leaders of their era equal to the son of heaven!

“Take the egg and go take control of the formation. Have Gerald help you when he awakens. Let these old monsters handle them” Isabella said as she walked up to Dillian’s side.

In a fight about to go down now, no one else was qualified to interfere. If they really want to help, they will have to use the magic towers to provide support.

Dillian showed some hesitation before leaving with her.

“Do you mind explaining?” the elf queen asked with a deep frown.

The enemy she was gazing at now was not inferior to Damon in any way. In fact, they weren’t even sure the death mage would be able to win against this foe.

“I wish I knew… I suspect this is a secret experiment conducted by Pope Light” Duke Hail shrugged his shoulders in response.

“That crazy bastard” The elf queen sighed and the Orc Chieftain only chuckled in response.

The trio began walking towards the enemy who seemed unfazed by their numbers.

.... Meanwhile.....

Damon stood alongside Armanthos with a deep frown on his face. The duo was surrounded by four figures.

“I guess we are in luck! Who would have thought we would get the chance to catch up to them so easily” A feminine voice echoed across the night as the moonlight fell on her, revealing her curvy figure.

Beside her was a floating spear and on her face were seductive eyes pinned on the two shirtless lone wolves standing side by side with their fangs and claws revealed.

“Heh! To think the old god’s pawns will show their face to me… what happened, Life god boring?” Damon hissed but they didn’t seem moved.

Each of them was a host of the true old gods. Their inheritance and power are equal to that of the new god hosts. Yes, Damon may be a legendary figure of his time but they are also famous for where they came from. Outside the fact that he is a realm above them, they saw no reason to admit inferiority.

Armanthos frowned at these people as he looked past them and towards the direction of the capital.

“If I help you kill these people. You will help me protect Gyro” Armanthos said.
