Chapter 630: Terror in Fone Kingdom: Collapse II
Chapter 630: Terror in Fone Kingdom: Collapse II
The entire Fone Kingdom was in a state of panic. The citizens were filled with fear as they felt that they were going to die today. Even the guards and soldiers of the kingdom didn’t know what to do.
They didn’t know how or why? But it just happened suddenly.
Battles erupted across the entire kingdom. It’s not an ordinary battle, instead, it was a battle between several Shackled Realm experts.
The fierce battles were slowly swallowing the entire kingdom and they couldn’t do anything about it.
Thousands of innocent people died in just a few minutes and it was still growing at high speed. Sooner or later, the casualties would reach tens of thousands of people.
They knew it but they couldn’t do anything. They were powerless. No matter what they say or no matter what they do, they couldn’t stop the battle because of their meager strength.
It was devastating for the Fone Kingdom. A kingdom that became a battlefield for two giant organizations.
The battle wasn’t just between Shackled Realm experts.
In the Germana Household…
Drami and Sekmet along with other capable people were fighting the S-rank experts of the Red Matter Association.
It was a battle for their survival.
They defeated all the members of the Red Matter Association in just a few minutes. After all, there were several Shackled Realm experts on their side.
Drami and the two guards of Alexander were One Shackle Realm experts. They could fight more than twenty S-rank experts alone so it didn’t take long for them to annihilate all the members of the Red Matter Association.
“I tried to keep one of them alive but some curse killed them before he could leak out information.”
Alexander muttered while looking at the corpse that died from an unknown curse.
Drami glanced at him and said, “Only a number of them had cursed. Not everyone so we could still find someone to interrogate. If we’re lucky we would find that person just like how our Athen’s Champion managed to capture a man that wasn’t cursed.”
“Is that so…” Alexander walked to the side.
If that’s really the case, then the curse was weak as it couldn’t influence the entire organization. But removing it was hard so it would take a lot of effort.
He didn’t have time for that since battles were happening across the kingdom.
Even at this moment, he could feel the vibration on the ground.
‘I didn’t think this would happen at all. What should I do? The kingdom is gone and it would be hard to rebuild it later.’
Alexander said inwardly.
Hmm?
From the corner of his eyes, he saw the one called Paolo running towards Drami.
“Are you okay, young master?” One of his guards asked.
“I’m fine. I don’t have any injuries.” Alexander waved his hand. His attention was still on Paolo and Drami.
“What did you say?” Drami asked in a low voice.
“The Third Prince knew something about the plan of the Red Matter Association. He said to me that they are trying to find a first-rate mana essence mining spot.” Paolo said.
“First-rate mana essence mining spot?! That’s ridiculous… Is there something more?”
A first-rate mana essence was one of the materials needed to craft a red grade artifacts. Even the entire Athen’s Champion only had twenty one first-rate mana essence mining spots, yet there’s another one here.
It was a huge discovery that would shock several giant organizations.
Drami realized that this will be a huge problem. Most of the organizations wanted to get a hold of a precious mining spot.
“But have the Red Matter Association confirmed it? Or not?” She asked carefully.
“I don’t know. The Third Prince is just a puppet for them so he didn’t know the full details. He just accidentally heard one of his Red Matter guards talked about it.” Paolo shook his head.
“Did you extract more information?”
“The problem of the mining spot is for the higher-ups to solve but the information that I’ll tell you is the one for the entire warriors in this kingdom.”
“What is it?”
“The Third Prince only said a few words. He said [Titanous Victor Golem].”
“What?!!” Drami opened her eyes widely.
“It’s not that a problem since we have Grain Leader with us but it would wipe out the entire kingdom,” Paolo said as he glanced at the group of nobles.
“We have to tell Leilus about it!” Drami said seriously.
“I’ll go. We have to inform Grain Leader and the other squadrons about it since there’s a chance that ‘that thing’ will catch everyone off guard.” Paolo said.
“Okay, I’ll stay here with Sakme,” Drami said.
Paolo looked at Sekmet’s direction. “Sakme wanted to protect her family. She’s going to leave this place after our mission but it’s better if she helped her family survive this ordeal. Even though she runs away for a few years, she couldn’t deny the fact that they are her family.”
“Yep,” Drami nodded.
“I’ll go now,” Paolo said before he turned around. He was about to fly when Drami stopped her.
“Wait!”
“Why?” Paolo asked with a confused look.
“I think I should go. Captain Leilus and Souta are fighting Shackled Realm experts from Red Matter so I think it’s safer if I go.” Drami explained.
“Is it fine?”
“Okay, I’ll stay here with Sakme.”
“Thanks, then I’ll go now.” Drami waved her hands before she flew into the sky.
Paolo looked at her figure before he shrugged his shoulder. “She just wanted to meet Marcus as soon as possible.”
…
[Dual Element Drive: Dark and Light Force]!
Souta just activated his [Element Drive] when he noticed a figure approaching at high speed. He wasn’t worried at all since the energy coming from the figure was familiar.
The people from Red Matter Association quickly attacked the incoming person.
“Hehe~ quite impatient aren’t you guy?!”
Souta laughed lightly as he bombarded the five people using several [Bestrou].
Boom! Boom! Boom!
They had no choice but to stop and blocked the beam of energy.
Souta turned his head and looked at the person that just arrived. It was Marcus, a member of the Blue Cross Squadron.
“How is it?” He asked.
Marcus looked at his opponent and said, “You are playing. Captain Leilus finished dealing with his opponents and he went straight to the other area.”
“I’m not playing. They are hard to deal with despite their looks.” Souta shrugged his shoulder.
“Do you want my help?” Marcus suggested.
“Okay, just hold that shielder and the one with a pair of daggers. You just need to hold them back as I know that it will be too much if I ask you to defeat them.” Souta said.
“I just need to block them? I can do that.” Marcus nodded. He didn’t need to fight till death and defeat them so it was a lot easier.
“I think I can defeat them if I use my release form but I don’t want to use it. The release form of the fourth stage monster is different from the third stage monster. The consumption of energy and stamina is too large. The backlash of using is several times higher and also there’s a time limit.” Souta explained why he haven’t finished these five people using his release form.
When he was at third Stage, Souta could use his release form for more than half an hour. But now that he became fourth stage, it’s natural that his release form had grown stronger too. He could only use it for a few minutes just like back then when he just reached the third stage. At that time, he could only use his release form for a few minutes.
If he wanted to use it, then he should be prepared to fight to death.
“I understand. You don’t need to explain anymore. I’ll just block those two so you should finish this as soon as possible.” Marcus said as he slowly pulled out the pair of daggers hanging on his waist.
“Good.” Souta smiled.
Both of them flashed as they flew towards the members of the Red Matter.
Boom! Boom!
Shockwaves spread out from the center of the impact and it caused a massive earthquake.
Bang! Bang!
Marcus fought the shielder and assassin. Their bodies turned into streams of lights as they collided hundreds of times in just a second.
Souta glanced at their battle and smiled inwardly. Marcus was doing it better than he imagined.
“Don’t worry about your comrade. You should be worried about yourself.”
A voice sounded and Souta swiftly tilted his head. A sharp spear passed through grazing his cheeks.
‘That’s close.’
Souta stretched out his hand. He wanted to grab the spear and pull the woman but something prevented him from doing so.
A cold energy exploded from the tip of the spear. The energy turned violent as it tried to attack him.
“That’s good!”
Souta laughed as he used [Bestrou] at point-blank range.
BOOM!!!
He took a distance away before he focused his attention on the center of the explosion.
“Tsk! Really hard to kill…”
The smoke dissipated revealing the figure of the spear woman covered in a golden barrier.
The support-type mage casted a strong barrier.
What’s worse was that the three of them were using [Element Drive]. Their aura was several times stronger than before.
But…
That doesn’t matter to him.
“I’ll kill the three of you first then proceed to those two.”
Souta grinned as exoskeleton armor slowly formed on his body. Blood flows through its surface and it changed its form.
[Armored Scale Formation]!
