Chapter 429 You just made it worse
?The Crimson Crane group had struggled fighting against 11 of these mages. Although a lot of that was due to them never fighting these types of opponents before.
Now, with them going up against more than forty of them, they could all tell that it was going to be troubling, more so than they ever imagined.
"Ha, ha, ha!" Kizer started to laugh; he could feel his special sword pulsating with power. The power from the weapon was surging back into him.
One of the traits of his weapon was, after all, the more opponents that he was going against, the stronger it would be.
"Tilon, just protect us for a while, and I'll be sure to wipe these guys out for us in one hit; we'll show them, these freaks, the strength of a Pagna warrior!" Kizer lifted his sword in the air and held it with a single hand.
Then he placed it down on the ground behind him as if he was dragging the weapon. The downside of the weapon itself created by the Dark Magus was skills couldn't be used more than once.
Including that of even footwork, but what choice did they have in this situation.
"Attack!" the mage squad leaders said, pointing out.
A flurry of different spells went through the air, and in some cases, the spells were combining together, to make a whirlwind of flames and lightning strikes.
There were even beams and lights of energy that were coming across them all.
That was when Tilon lifted his shield up in the air with a single hand, large and rectangular in shape, black in color it started to flow with all of his Qi energy.
"My job is to protect the Crimson Crane, and that's exactly what I'm going to do, and Kizer, your job is to cause as much damage as you can, so do it!"
Tilon slammed his shield on the ground, and a line of energy had spread around the group. Just as the attacks came their way, the energy exploded up from the floor surrounding them all.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAll of the attacks that were hurled toward the members were being blocked by this power. Tilon still had his hand on the shield, but Lilly, who was standing behind him, could see something was up.
Tilon was huffing and panting, and his grip on his own shield was getting weaker by the second.
'Tilon's been blocking attacks non-stop,' Lilly thought. 'Even before when we fought that Hybrid, he hasn't been able to catch a break. This is probably the hardest fight we've ever had to face, and I have no way to help him.'
She looked at her spear, which was designed to create pinpoint damage in a singular area. In a fight like this, and against so many, what could she do?
Worse than that, she thought Tilon couldn't hold out much longer.
After the initial attacks were blocked, the attacks didn't stop but the scale of them did. The technique that Tilon had used came to an end, and the rest of the Crimson Crane were left protecting themselves.
Meanwhile, Kizer started to run from the position he was in, the sword continuing to drag on the floor.
"I'll protect you!" Alba said, as she stayed in front, rapidly swinging her dual blades, hitting all of the spells. The problem with spells compared to the techniques she would face, at times her Qi couldn't completely block the attack.
Cutting through a fireball, the lingering power would still hit her in areas, the same with lightning or ice, but no matter what pain she was in, she still had to help.
When the two were around ten meters away from the closest of the mages, Kizer gave the order.
"Now!" Kizer shouted.
Immediately, Kizer swung his weapon from the ground; it had sliced through the sandstone underneath as if it wasn't even there, and a giant sweep of energy was unleashed.
The large power burst from the weapon was being added to his own Qi; it was an attack that could deal with half of the enemy with ease.
One of the squad leaders that were in front of all of this, though, then pulled out a rounded circle device that looked a bit like a coin.
He flipped it, and when it landed on the ground, a large barrier had appeared.
The attack, all of the energy, started to move towards this barrier. Rather than stopping the attack, it was almost sucking all of the energy in.
The energy looked like it was being wrapped into a single area until it had completely disappeared just like that.
Kizer stood there completely still; he was too stunned to even notice the attacks that were still coming at him.
Alba had to jump in his way and continue to hit the attacks away.
"Kizer, we're still fighting, what are you doing just standing around!" She screamed.
"But my attack, how… I don't even think middle-stage warriors could stop something like that," Kizer mumbled.
It certainly was strange, Alba had to admit. The mages they had gone up against before were unable to do things like that, so how did they stop such a large-scale attack this time?
Were there even stronger mages that they were fighting against? But that wasn't the case at all.
The squad leader had bent down to pick up the large coin from the floor and looked at it glowing.
"The Mythical item Lucky Block. Fifty percent of the time it can block any attack completely by absorbing its energy, while fifty percent of the time it does nothing.
"There is a big difference compared to those that come from your world and our world, and that is the number of items that we hold and that mages have created for us.
"We are blessed by Idore, The Noble, and his items. Our strength doesn't just come from the star level we hold but the items that the Grand Magus has created for us!"
The squad leader was laughing to himself.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBoth Kizer and Alba were heading back to the others, as they could see they were starting to get overwhelmed by the attacks.
They still weren't getting badly hurt, but an opportunity wasn't arising, and it looked like there wasn't going to be a chance for them to break out of this.
"We just need an opening, one thing to go our way, I thought Kizer's attack was going to be that, but…" Alba decided she needed to do something herself, but it would use up the last of her energy.
Readying her sword, that's when she saw something from above come in between them. A person landed right in front of her.
It wasn't a person in mage clothing though, but it was one in Pagna clothing instead.
With his iron leg, he kicked the sky, destroying most of the spells out of the way.
"I bet you wished these people would have talked it out rather than fight, and it looks like I was right about you having the kid," Amir commented with a smile.
It was strange, the hybrid they were fighting was now in front of them, although not in his hybrid form. What was he doing here, and why did he just stop their attacks?
"Are you here to help us?" Alba quickly asked, wondering if it was another enemy they had to worry about or not.
"I'm sorry, but I might have brought more trouble than help," Amir said, looking up at the sky.
When looking up herself, Alba could see a man in white and gold-trim blazer just floating above, slowly he was coming down to the ground bit by bit.
As he was coming down, the other mages were letting up with their attacks. They didn't want to hit the commander after all.
Right then, the commander landed in front of the other mages in the sand and looked at all of the others that were present.
"My my, I never expected this, I never thought that there would be more than one, but a whole party in this place. I wonder how this even came to be."
"Are you sure you don't know anything about the last expedition, the death of our people?" Eston, the commander asked.
"You brought the commander!" Alba stated.
"As I said, I might have brought more trouble rather than help. I was trying to get away from him and ended up here."
"I guess there's no choice now though, I'll just have to go all out. Protect the White Dragon!" Amir stated as his body started to transform.
