Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong Chapter 2760: 1514: Spreading Smoke_2
Previously on Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong...
The other soldiers on the scene couldn't possibly endure the crushing might of the half-step Tier 7 powerhouses. Furthermore, two additional parasites with equivalent strength positioned themselves right behind them.
Protect the City Lord!
Even though the fearsome aura poured out from the enemies, a team of Tier 5 temple guards wearing silver heavy armor bit down hard and charged ahead, striving to encircle the three unexpected parasites.
Overestimating oneself!
The Lion King Feld sneered, gripped his massive hammer, and surged forward; before the temple guards could assemble their formation, he shattered the leading Tier 6 Guard Captain along with the guards into chaos, flinging them away like mangled metal containers, and carved a huge crater into the ground.
Tch, and this is the force that held back our grand army for so long?
The Lion King Feld cast a scornful look at the fallen guards on the ground, then turned his gaze to Old Book, declaring icily, You must be the City Lord here, right? It’s time to hand over your life. As your Human Clan says, capture the leader first!
With those words, he let out another cold laugh, pressing onward toward Old Book alongside the other two half-step Tier 7 parasites.
We mustn’t let them get close to the City Lord!
Observing the dire circumstances, additional soldiers hurried over, Asher Porter among them, yet Old Book halted them with a simple hand gesture.
Stand down, you are not their match.
Old Book advanced steadily with Curry by his side, stating calmly, Before this begins, can you tell me what happened to Lord Brave?
Even at death’s door you think of others, let me tell you, that fool leading your side plunged into the depths of the Void Space and should have been torn to shreds by the void by now, hahaha!
The Lion King Feld’s grin twisted further, and he blurted out without restraint, And you’re next!
As he spoke, his form and the enormous hammer he wielded blurred instantly, barreling savagely at Old Book!
Holy Giant Bell!
Once the adversaries lunged, Old Nick responded with lightning speed; a radiant golden enormous magical bell rapidly materialized overhead, then plummeted down to envelop the foe.
Boom!
Accompanied by a thunderous roar, the ground shook violently, and the massive bell managed to confine the enemy inside, prompting joyful shouts from the onlookers nearby.
Yet, prior to the cheers fading, another boom echoed, as the Lion King Feld burst free from the bell, resuming his rush toward Old Nick.
In addition, the pair of Centaur powerhouses had already nocked their huge bows, unleashing two gigantic energy arrows that hurtled toward Old Nick with overwhelming force.
Don’t forget about me!
Curry reacted just as rapidly, his longbow humming as it fired arrows, two somewhat smaller energy arrows streaking forth like twin dragons in flight to intercept the approaching ones.
Boom! Boom!
Two deafening explosions rocked the area, the four energy arrows clashing in the sky and dissipating, kicking up thick clouds of dirt.
Nevertheless, though Curry had countered the strike from the two foes of matching level, he coughed up a gush of blood and barely stayed upright.
One must remember that prior to this clash, the Divine Stone General had endured a string of brutal fights, nearly exhausted, and now summoned his last reserves to confront two adversaries. The result was foreseeable.
Noticing Curry’s vulnerability, the two Centaur parasites seized the moment without hesitation. They drew their bowstrings rapidly, unleashing a barrage of energy arrows like a storm upon him.
Confronted by this onslaught, Curry dodged with difficulty but gradually faltered from energy exhaustion. In his critical state, fellow soldiers arrived to encircle one of the Centaur parasites, significantly easing his burden.
In this way, the fight divided into three separate confrontations: Old Book against the Lion King Feld; Curry facing one Centaur parasite; the rest of the soldiers and Asher Porter overwhelming the other Centaur parasite.
In contrast to the Lion King Feld, the second Centaur parasite was ultimately a ranged physical specialist, and bolstered by the soldiers’ superior numbers—including numerous melee Tier 6 specialists—they held firm despite the peril, managing to persist for a while.
As Curry clenched his teeth against the onslaught from the two distant attackers, the Lion King Feld’s colossal hammer, resembling a mountain plummeting from above, bore down on Old Book with devastating power.
It was no overstatement to claim this hammer could demolish a fortress!
Holy Light Hammer!
Against such a blow, Old Book opted neither to evade nor to shield himself. Rather, the end of his Magic Wand transformed into a luminous massive light hammer, which he swung with full force at the advancing warhammer.
Boom!
Another explosive clash rang out, the pair of contrasting huge hammers slamming together in the air, unleashing a violent surge of energy.
Once the gusts died down, the melee-focused Lion King Feld and Old Book both retreated several paces, seeming perfectly balanced.
Old ant, you have some skill!
A flicker of astonishment crossed the Lion King Feld’s savage, malice-filled face, causing his brows—studded with crystalline formations—to twitch faintly.
I serve the Deity as Priest, how could I fall beneath such profane beings as you?!
Old Book’s white beard billowed in the breeze, his pristine magic robes lending majesty to his declaration.
Still, while his presence remained steadfast, blood continued to trickle from his hand clutching the magic wand, eventually sliding along its shaft.
As a magical powerhouse, in hand-to-hand fighting, he inevitably lagged behind a physical powerhouse, particularly one as horrifying as this parasite.
Heh, Priest, your temples have been destroyed countless times by us; why hasn’t anyone shown up to save you?
The Lion King Feld had evidently spotted the blood flowing from Old Book, his expression twisting into deeper ridicule, I know, you’re waiting for that so-called brave group to come back? Let me tell you, today, this city and all of you will be wiped out!
With that, the Lion King Feld carved a lethal path through the air with his giant hammer, hurtling at Old Book anew.
For an instant, despite Old Book being wreathed in holy light and resisting fully, he quickly slipped into a losing position, even his white magic robes marred by bloodstains, painting a horrific scene.
Not just Old Book, but elsewhere, Curry and the soldiers’ struggle looked equally bleak, pinned down by the two Centaur parasites and teetering on total defeat.
Furthermore, to everyone’s growing despair, the thunderous roars of battle and quaking noises approached ever nearer, heralding the fast-approaching horde of other parasites and the Corrosion.
Old ant, die!
The Lion King Feld brandished his giant hammer, warping space itself as it howled toward Old Book’s elderly head, and the latter, lacking any chance to respond, could only stare in helpless dread as the fatal hammer descended.
In that very instant, within Old Book’s eyes filled with hopelessness, a violet radiance dropped from the sky, shielding him.
With a boom, after a massive energy eruption, a brilliant longsword gleamed, powerfully knocking the giant hammer away.
Lord Brave?!
Staring at the silhouette positioned in front of him, wielding the longsword, Old Book’s eyes bulged in utter astonishment.
