Chapter 1223: Strike Back

Chapter 1223: Strike Back

The way those legendary knights reacted reflected their biggest difference between them and wizards: speed. A wizard could move in a flash, which allowed them to escape easily in times of crisis.

On the other hand, Knights had powerful resistance to elements and defense against physical attacks, especially with their support auras.

But still, it was at that moment the knights began to lose their confidence against the Golden Castle. The second round of energy balls was about to strike.

“Retreat!” Knight Chase lowered his voice.

The legendary knights ignited a charge backward while facing the golden castle. Their target was the red Portal 3000 meters away.

As long as they could escape the attack range of the Golden castle, they would be safe.

At that moment, two 30 meters tall king puppets emerged, and Land no.1 was already standing in front of the Portal.

Land no.2 was madly charging towards the 3 knights with swords as its hands.

The legendary knights could fly, but the Portal was on the ground. They had to go through those puppets.

The second round of attack from the stone throwers was unleashed, but this time most of the energy balls missed their target. After all, they still did not have much battle experience.

Abel frowned. He never thought about the fact that those stone-throwers were not the original weapons of the battle forts. They needed large amounts of data to get better at aiming.

It was a bit too much for them to face legendary knights right out of the gate.

But Abel had no choice anyway. He would not be able to test out those stone-throwers without destroying his trees in the Hardy Valley.

To be honest, his King Puppets were also not the best choice against the knights. They were made for attacking large targets, so their aims were not that good as well.

Still, they were the only forces Abel could use. Unless he was totally confident that he could kill all other knights, he would not expose his secret power.

The dwarves knew about his king puppets and golden castle, so the wizard union must be aware as well.

The 30 meters tall Land no.2 fell into the Holy freeze aura of the knights, and it was immediately covered in frost, but it did not slow down.

The 3 legendary knights followed up with some combo attacks, but Land no.2 remained intact. Unless those knights focused all their strength on one spot, they were hopeless in the face of Land no.2’s defense.

However, there was a problem. Those knights kept changing directions to dodge the aim of those stone-throwers, and Abel was stunned by how well those knights work together.

Even if one of the knights was hit by an energy ball, the other two would be able to carry them away from the danger with their triangle formation to avoid further injuries from the relentless attacks of the stone-throwers.

Both sides were not making any progress. Those knights dashed around frantically, but at the same time, they were trying to find a way to the Portal.

Land no.2 kept attacking, but it was also too weak for the legendary knights. Still, it was enough to stop them from approaching Land no.1. But, with its 30 meters tall body, you could only get through the Portal by blasting it away.

Meanwhile, Abel’s angel body was hiding behind him with the Buriza-Do Kyanon ready. He only had one chance, and Abel would immediately put it back to his soul afterward.

His angel body had to show itself during an attack, and the four wings on its back were too noticeable.

It was at that moment Abel sensed powerful energy incoming from afar.

“Damn you, Bennett!” Knight Chase roared as he painfully took out 3 Holy crystals.

Those crystals immediately turned into three golden beams.

One blocked the energy balls coming towards, the second landed on Land no.2, and the third landed on Land no.1, knocking it out of the Portal.

Knight Chase analyzed the injuries of his knights and lined them up accordingly. Since he was the strongest one, he stood at the back.

The Holy crystal perfectly counteracted a round of attack from the stone throwers before scattering into golden sparkles.

Land no.2 also struggled for a few seconds before breaking free again.

As for Land no.1, it was frozen for a second.

Still, this was enough time for the knights to retreat, but there was no sign of happiness in the face of Knight Chase. The loss he took was too significant.

The central temple had stopped giving out Holy crystals, so those six holy crystals he used in this mission were all coming out of his own pocket.

This number was enough to make a god’s heartache, let alone those knights.

Especially since they didn’t even complete their mission.

At that moment, Abel fixed his power of the will on one spot and his angel body suddenly appeared 600 meters from the retreating knights.

With a Buriza-Do Kyanon in its hand, he unleashed an arrow a split second before it was retracted back into Abel’s human body.

Abel did not add any light energy into this shot. He was not about to mess with something he didn’t understand just yet.

He was very confident in the Buriza-Do Kyanon by itself already. He tested it in maybe hell creatures of the Dark World.

Even his thief god Milton or Doff the Beamon could not go against his angel body with the four wings on its back. This power could almost go face to face with top-level demons like Diablo.

The arrow he used was made from the light iron of the dwarves in combination with rare heavy metals. It had the power to penetrate armor, mana, wind, and all kinds of attributes. It was the best arrow, only reserved for the most critical moments.

No one would buy something like this since there were no powerful archers in the Central Continent.

But if it was by the right candidate, such as the Angel body, it could easily penetrate someone’s defense.

Not to mention, Abel had his world stone ignited, so the precision was unmatched.

Once Abel grasped the right opportunity to strike, the arrow penetrated through the wind and made its way towards knight Chase in silence.

At that moment, Knight Chase sensed danger through his intuition.

The Portal was right in front of him, and he was the last in line. Even if he didn’t move quick enough, the strike would be taken in by his comrades before him as well.

But still, his intuition told him that danger was threatening.

This meant taking that strike would not kill him. Even if he was seriously injured, he would be able to heal once he returned to the Holy Kingdom.

He instinctively held up his shield and cast a holy shield spell.

He had been practicing knights skills ever since he was a child. He didn’t even need to think when making moves like this.

It was not impossible to block an arrow coming from the Buriza-Do Kyanon, and it soon made contact with Knight CHase’s shield.

In normal circumstances, a light iron arrow would unleash all its energy as soon as it made contact with a physical object, no matter if it could penetrate it or not, but this was not a normal arrow.

The arrow directly traveled through knight Chase’s shield like it was invisible.

Knight Chase sensed a sharp pain in his body, and he sensed a big chunk of his life taken away. What happened was not even like an arrow strike.

Still, he was correct. It did not kill him.

He continued to charge. He was only 1 second away from the Portal.

However, the unexpected happened. That arrow did not stop after it pierced through his body. Instead, it continued towards the legendary knight in front of him.

Ah! That Legendary knight’s body twitched and went off track. Since they were flying in a line, they would miss their chance to return once they went off track.

They could sense the legendary wizards in coming, so they would be dead once they missed their only chance to return.

Knight Chase immediately reached out his hand and grabbed his comrade, but because of the heavy momentum, he too was thrown off balance for a moment.

That arrow continued towards the legendary knight at the very front.

Since his injuries were the most serious, and his powering ability would always unleash the most amounts of power to the final target, the arrow directly landed on his heart.

“No!” Knight Chase saw life force slowly fading from the knight at the very front as he dropped down from the sky.

But all he could do was yell. He could not stop. If he did, he and his other comrade would have the same fate.
