Click!
I heard the click of the door open, and I couldn't help but take a sigh of relief before entering inside.
Just as I did, I felt the thick powerful poison started attacking me.
It is everywhere and in such dense quantity that any unprepared Earth Sovereign would die within a minute by it.
This is why instead of wrestling with all releases of poison, which I may not be able to stop.
I instead went for the poor people.
Six injections appeared in my hand, and I threw them at the six people and descended to the lower floor. I didn't even look. Whether the injection hit them, I know they will.
I reached the fourth floor and did the same and repeated it for the rest of the three floors.
I didn't stop even then and took the people of the lower floor and climbed up and took the people of the floor above and did that, till I reached the top floor.
Click!
I pasted my palm on the door again, and it opened, and I brought all thirty people out and took out the abode before sending them inside.
Where they fell on the six tubs, which will keep them alive after I return fighting those cultists bastard.
However, I didn't forget to take the cylinder.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThere was no resistance; it was not an artifact. Just a specialized tool, which had been forged solely for this purpose.
My clone had already started to study it, while I moved toward the battle.
I got out of a second and saw Wanya dealing with two Peak Sovereigns. The same is Elra. However, unlike Wanya, she is having a problem containing those who are trying to run away with everything they have.
Seeing Gamin is fine, I flew toward Elra and the two, who are trying to escape from her.
I appeared behind the Green Salamander Beastman and attacked, with the rapier appeared in my hand.
It immediately stopped from escaping and turned to me to defend against the attack.
Clang!
Our weapons clashed, and it shook, taking advantage of the opportunity. I attacked again, with far more power.
CLANG!
He stopped the attack with its saber, and this time; he was much better prepared to defend against my attack, as he stopped it, without much shaking.
"Surrender and you will survive, resist and there will only be a death," I said, to which he laughed.
"I do not fear death," he replied and attacked me with its purple saber.
I moved to defend against the attack while looking at him.
There is an elaborate purple armor covering his body and a purple sword in his hand. Its armor hid nearly every part of him, and I could only see what race he belonged to due to the methods I had activated.
Still, the methods weren't enough for me to see his face.
He is hiding it well. I am sure he had the blank ceramic masks on. It is made of material, which is resistant to the soul's sense.
The only thing that is visible is its reptilian red eyes, but I am sure, they are not his real eyes.
It didn't matter if he was hiding himself. I will see his real face.
"Many people say, they don't fear death, but when it arrives, they use every way to beg for life," I replied as I defended against his attack.
"I will not. Not that I think I will need to do it, for an enemy like you," he said and attacked with an even stronger attack.
I didn't force offensive, I continued fighting defense, increasing my power with every move. As I had said, my job isn't to kill it but to capture him and this works fine.
This way, I also won't show too much of my abilities to my teammates.
CLANNG CLANNG CLANNG
It continued with the showers of attacks. Every second, they are getting stronger and faster, with their intent to kill me sharper.
He wants to kill me. It is clear in the way he is attacking me.
Though it is not the only thing he is trying. There is another thing, he is also trying sneakily.
Hun!
More than a minute passed, and his attacks continued to get stronger, when suddenly, instead of attacking, he tried to escape, and his speed was quite amazing.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIt is regretful for him, I had already predicted what he was trying to do.
I attacked at the right moment; its eyes widened, and he tried to defend against the attack, but couldn't.
Rip!
My sword cut through his armor, giving him a cut across his chest.
He reacted pretty quickly. Even surprising me, or the cut I had given him, wouldn't have been this shallow.
"Bastard, you will pay for this," he said and came at me with all the purple fury and I moved my sword to defend against his attack.
CLANNNG!
I defended, harnessing 90% power of the burst.
It surprised him; he hadn't thought I would be able to defend against the attack like this and I did, but it didn't stop and attack again with more power.
I let him. There is no hurry in me to finish this battle.
My mission is to stop him from running away and dying, both things wouldn't happen till I am fighting against him.
A few minutes passed, and the battle got intense, not just mine, but also others.
The cultists Wanya is fighting are powerful, but despite being level lower. She is not only stopping them from escaping, but also suppressing them in the battle.
She also gave them quite a few injuries, and some looked serious.
I could do that too and I really want to, but since I didn't. I focused on defending and stopping him from trying to escape, which he was trying every minute.
BANNNNG!
I was fighting, when suddenly a large explosion rang out. So powerful that it pushed us hundreds of meters away.
My eyes widened as the reality of the explosion seeped in. It is not a normal explosion, but a self-destruction.
