Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong Chapter 2679 1473: Urgency and Astonishment

Previously on Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong...

Leo Ray empowered a vast grey formation to dismantle the enemy's hidden space traps across the city, revealing and collapsing them in a surge of golden-grey energy that also reshuffled positions among his allies, bringing Loris and Sina to his side. With the pink-hooded figure's aid, the traps were fully neutralized, allowing the forces—including the skeletal remnants of the Broken Valley Alliance—to regroup and advance toward the rising black smoke pillar. As black fog suddenly enveloped the dead land, the pink-hooded figure and Frank identified it as a sinister taboo necromancy from the witch demons, corroding all in its path with its core positioned outside the inescapable confinement barrier, plunging the group into mounting despair.

"That pink guy is surprisingly still kicking, but alas, nobody can break free from the Black Fog Blood Devouring Formation—no matter how desperately these insects fight back, it's all for nothing in the end!"

From the heart of the utterly dark chamber, a derisive, raspy voice resounded; the Witch Demon Leader gazed boldly at our allies' powerhouses displayed in the crystal orb, cackling wildly.

In the crystal orb, nearly every one of our powerhouses found themselves encircled by surging black energy shields, and with the black vapor thickening further, numerous shields were clearly weakening before their eyes.

In particular, the injured powerhouses lay mostly collapsed on the floor, their complexions even more ashen, gasps coming out labored and quick.

The moment the energy shield enveloping them got fully eaten away by the black vapor, the dire outcome needed no explanation.

A similar fate befell the powerhouses of the Broken Valley Alliance, their bone-embedded golden patterns fading, on the verge of total engulfment by the black haze.

As the Witch Demon Leader howled in frenzied laughter, the enormous silhouette hidden deep within the chamber stayed serene, lids shut, poised to devour the boundless anguish and dread once our forces crumbled.

"Hehe, the chapter of decaying demise is on the verge of beginning."

...

"Your Majesty of the Humans, this thick black vapor prevents the Absolute Defense Barrier from taking shape, and the generals can't endure much longer!"

Amid the swirling black haze, Sina's ashen features brimmed with desperation as she turned to Leo Ray, inquiring, "Is there truly no alternative?"

Once Sina finished, Loris wore a matching look, filled with worry and helplessness.

"Your Excellency, couldn't we slip into the space rift for cover?"

Leo Ray composed himself, signaling first to the two commanders to stay calm, before questioning the figure in the pink hood.

While uttering those words, Leo Ray sharply sensed his energy shield dissolving like frost beneath a scorching desert blaze, nearly choking him, his inner power draining swiftly despite the boost from the Power of Divine Grace.

Thus, one could readily picture the immense strain and horror gripping a typical powerhouse at this moment.

"No way, this area has been twisted by that fiend's space folding and spatial chaos, turning it into anything but ordinary space. I've just unleashed yet another spatial disruption to scramble things even more, so entering the space rift isn't feasible anytime soon."

The figure in the pink hood gave a helpless shrug.

Following the pink-hooded figure's words, Xiao Jing gave a reluctant nod, backing up the claim; the fiendish spatial tactics in play proved overwhelmingly potent and ruthless, preventing even her from executing Shadow Escape, much less a mass Concealing Technique.

"That said, while evacuating the whole group isn't possible, I can whisk you and one other out of this mess. My abilities let me shatter the enemy's Absolute Imprisonment Barrier without issue, though just two spots are available."

The pink-hooded figure's tone rang out once more, directing it at Leo Ray, "Quick now, time's running short—decide fast, I have no intention of perishing here."

"So, we have that extra option?"

Leo Ray scanned the loyal followers and our powerhouses battling the black vapor's erosion, ultimately settling his gaze on Frank, probing, "Sir, once we're back outside, could you pinpoint the heart of this wicked array?"

Frank seemed taken aback yet deeply grateful seeing Leo Ray cling to optimism and offer him this vital chance, affirming with a vigorous nod, "Your Majesty, while I'm not fully confident, I'll give it everything I've got!"

"Excellent, then get us both out."

Leo Ray drew Frank nearer and called out to Loris and Sina, "Hold on, all of you—I'll be back!"

Observing Leo Ray's steadfast resolve, Loris and Sina responded with solid nods, showing not the slightest wavering.

Were it some other person, skepticism about his comeback might arise, yet through countless clashes, Leo Ray's integrity and unyielding spirit had won their complete admiration, banishing any uncertainty.

Simultaneously, Leo Ray lightly flicked his hand, depositing tens of thousands of Tier 5 Magic Pills for recovery and renewal, before disappearing alongside Frank in a burst of silvery-gray light from the pink-hooded figure's teleportation.

On this occasion, that well-known buoyant feeling dragged on considerably, and when Leo Ray's sight sharpened, he discovered they stood at the entrance to Forest White Giant City.

"Have we escaped without a hitch?"

Sensing his energy shield remained intact, Leo Ray promptly glanced at the pink-hooded figure nearby, confirming their escape prowess was real.

"Don't stare at me like that—I'm one to hold grudges and won't spare that bunch lightly; I gave my word, and I stick to it."

The pink-hooded figure shrugged while preempting with those lines.

"My deepest gratitude, Your Excellency."

With those words exchanged, Leo Ray shifted to Frank, who had shut his eyes in focus, deploying the Perception Spell to hunt for the Corrosive Formation's nucleus.

Meanwhile, the pink-hooded figure brimmed with surging energy, pitching in on the hunt too.

"Your Majesty of the Humans, what's going on inside the city?"
