Chapter 421: Discovered the Anomaly and Persuaded the Nobles

After Sophia escaped, Vincent was left behind in the space tunnel alone. He could only see a pitch-black hole in the rock layer in front of him. However, he was not worried that Sophia would really escape. Instead, he was curious about the abilities that Sophia possessed.

Based on Vincent’s previous experiences with the Dark Elves, even the twelve powerful apostles such as Jessica and Andre were unable to break through Vincent’s space tunnel. Even when the two of them transformed into demons, it was still impossible for them to break through the restrictions of the modification authority.

However, Sophia was different. She could cast a control skill to separate the target’s soul from its physical body. She also had the ability to travel through space. This was something that even an apostle of the Demon Race could not do!

“Strange, it seems like Sophia must have other important secrets!”

Vincent frowned and sighed. He then began to move quickly through the space tunnel. He followed the hole that Sophia had left behind and looked for traces of her.

Both Vincent and Sophia were in the ley lines 100,000 meters underground. It was impossible for Sophia to return to the surface in a short period of time. Therefore, Vincent had enough time to catch up to Sophia.

Sophia, who was surrounded by the aura of the Demon World, was like a slippery loach, moving quickly through the soil. However, even after moving for a long time, she did not notice any changes in the surrounding rock layers. This made Sophia feel worried and fearful.

Although she had a way to leave Vincent’s control, her method also had its limits. If she could not reach the surface before her physical strength was exhausted, then what awaited Sophia would only be death. She was going to be buried alive!

Sophia could not help but shout loudly in the midst of her nervousness, “Damn b*stard, how many meters deep did you take me? Why haven’t I reached the ground yet?”

However, as soon as she finished speaking, Sophia immediately turned her head to look behind her. She saw that there was only a black tunnel in the space behind her. Her eyes were filled with fear.

In the parallel space tunnel right behind Sophia, Vincent was sizing up Sophia who was only one step away from him. He noticed the change in her eyes.

“She found me? It seems that she not only has the ability to pass through the space tunnel but also has the ability to peer into space!”

Vincent frowned and sighed as he moved quickly through the space tunnel. He wanted to kill Sophia or capture her again. It was simply a matter of raising his hand.

However, after discovering many abnormalities on Sophia’s body, Vincent decided to observe again to see if Sophia still had any other abilities!

Therefore, even though Vincent knew that Sophia had already discovered him, he continued to maintain the same speed as the other party. He continued to chase after her all the way to the top of the ground.

At the same time, on the main street of Serene Spring City, there were dozens of soldiers’ corpses lying under Dave’s feet. The blades in his hands were constantly dripping with black blood. There were thousands of fully armed soldiers gathered at the two ends of the street.

These soldiers were the guards that Vice City Lord Darren had specially stationed behind to help Sophia before leaving the city. They were also the culprits who had massacred the entire city previously. Although Sophia had already ordered everyone to stop fighting, Dave’s appearance had caused the soldiers to gather once again.

Sophia’s order was to stop the massacre of ordinary residents for the time being. However, when they encountered individuals who could resist them or kill them, these soldiers naturally ignored the order and surrounded the streets around the temple. They were ready to kill Dave who caused trouble first.

Melissa was hiding at the gate of the temple at that very moment. She looked at the soldiers who had gathered on both sides of the street and could not help but say worriedly, “Almost all the soldiers of the city have gathered here, are you confident in defeating them?”

Dave looked at the soldiers on the street and said confidently, “Just in time! As long as I stall them here, the residents of Serene Spring City will be safe. If I can kill all of them, then Serene Spring City will be peaceful!”

Melissa looked at the arrogant Dave and could not help but remind him, “The soldiers of Serene Spring City are basically all level 35 creatures. Even if your strength has improved, you’re still only a level 32 creature. It’s impossible for you to fight against an army of nearly a thousand people!”

Dave still maintained a smile on his face and said to Melissa, “You know what Vincent said is especially true!”

Melissa could not help but ask, “What is it?”

Dave suddenly stopped smiling and said seriously, “How would we know if we don’t try?”

Dave did not wait for the surrounding troops to attack. He took the initiative to swing his knife at the left side of the junction.

“World Domination!”

His pitch-black blade, which was more than ten meters long, mixed with coldness and darkness, directly hacked it into the middle of the street.

In a small team consisting of hundreds of Dark Elves, more than ten Dark Elves were instantly killed on the spot. The rest of the Dark Elves were sent flying in all directions by the huge explosion and crashed into the surrounding walls heavily. For a short period of time, they could not maintain the formation to launch another charge.

After the first strike was successful, Dave turned his head to look at the soldiers hovering at the right corner of the street. He raised his long blade and shouted, “Kill!”

After his voice resounded through the sky, Dave took the initiative to run toward the army in front of him.

The general who was organizing the attack saw that Dave was heading toward him from the opposite direction. Although Dave was trapped in a tight encirclement, he did not care about his safety. Instead, he took the initiative to attack. Such boldness and strength were really shocking!

“Don’t let him rush over. Shoot arrows to block him!”

The general of Serene Spring City came up with a countermeasure quickly. He immediately instructed the soldiers beside him to equip themselves with bows and arrows to shoot at Dave who was rushing over.

There were around 500 Dark Elves gathered at the intersection on both sides of the street. 500 arrows were shot every round. Every soldier of Serene Spring City carried a strong bow and 20 feathered swords.

Previously, when the soldiers were massacring the civilians, they only used their broadswords and spears to deal with them. None of them had used the feathered arrows that they had stored on their backs. Therefore, at that moment, each Dark Elf had 20 arrows aimed at Dave. Each wave had 500 arrows. This meant that there was a total of 10,000 arrows being shot at Dave!

Dave looked at the rain of arrows in the sky. His feet did not stop at all. He raised his left hand and shouted in a deep voice, “Eternal Shield of Darkness!”

Pure dark energy surged out of Dave’s left hand and condensed into a shield that blocked his entire body. No matter how dense the rain of swords in the sky was, it could not hurt Dave at all.

At the same time, Dave raised his Inquisitive God of the World that was in his other hand high once again. He slashed toward the army formation in front of him horizontally.

“Sweep away an army of a thousand!” shouted Dave loudly.

A hint of madness and joy flashed in his eyes.

This move was not one of the eight forms of Heaven’s Will that Vincent had taught him, but a brand-new blade technique that he had learned from the Art of Heaven’s will, Conqueror of the World!

Dave’s violent blade aura, mixed with dark energy of extreme yin and cold, swept across the army formation. After a series of miserable screams, the soldiers in the first three rows of the army formation all fell dead on the ground.

The armor of the soldiers in the fourth row had broken into two pieces. Their skin and flesh had been flipped open, almost spilling out their internal organs. They all clutched their stomachs and fell to the ground, wailing.

Although the soldiers in the fifth row were not hurt by the blades, they could clearly feel the killing intent and coldness in the air. They could not help but spit out blood and sit on the ground in shock.

The general of Serene Spring City was shocked when he saw that Dave had broken the defense of five rows of soldiers with just one slash. He quickly shouted, “The enemy has special abilities. Everyone, stand in different positions and get ready to form another formation! Trap him first!”

The soldiers of Serene Spring City, who were usually well-trained, displayed good combat skills. They raised their spears and spread out, forming a huge pocket formation. They were waiting for Dave to break into the formation to trap him to his death.

After becoming the City Lord of Devil Flame City, Dave had more opportunities to interact with the army. He also had a better understanding of the different kinds of formations. At this moment, he could tell that the enemy had already set up a battle formation and was only waiting for him to fall into the trap.

After understanding the purpose of the formation, Dave still took a step forward resolutely and ran forward fiercely. He directly entered the other party’s formation.

Melissa, who was worried, was just about to remind Dave when she suddenly saw Dave, who had broken into the trap, immediately stopped in his tracks. He held his knife with both hands and was ready to attack.

Melissa thought of all the magical methods that Dave had just displayed. She could not help but hope that Dave would have some way to stop the current war!

Dave swung his weapon. There was nothing new about it. He still used the same method that he had just comprehended. It was just that this time, Dave had used more power, so the destructive power of his knife would definitely increase as well.

In addition to that, Dave had tapped the ground with his foot. With a twist of his foot, his entire body turned, and the blade that he swung out slashed out 360 degrees, forming a closed disc!

The surrounding Dark Elves were prepared to attack Dave with their arrows, spears, and short swords. However, no matter how they attacked, they could not avoid waving and drawing their bows, so they lost the best opportunity to dodge.

Dave was like a god of war. He was sweeping his long knife and attacking everyone with a destructive force. In an instant, a bloody mist was formed, causing the soldiers who were lucky enough to survive to instantly feel a chill down their spines. They threw their weapons on the ground and ran out of the city.

Dave looked at the soldiers who were running away quickly. He could not help but feel a little worried. He turned to Melissa and shouted, “I should be able to deal with these soldiers, but if they escape, I’m afraid I can’t do anything as I am alone. Is there any way to take over Serene Spring City now? It’s best to close all the city gates so that we can begin to clean up Jessica and Darren’s henchmen!”

Melissa suddenly had an idea. She nodded repeatedly and said, “There is a way! I can use the connections of the Carter family to contact some of the noble families and current officials in Serene Spring City. If I can get their support, they will definitely send their men to help us take over Serene Spring City completely!”

After hearing Melissa’s idea, Dave immediately rushed to the front of the temple again. He stretched out his hand and grabbed Melissa’s wrist to lead her to the left side of the street.

“I’ll take care of the soldiers, and you’ll find a way out. Only the two of us can save the Dark Elves of Serene Spring City in the shortest period of time!”

“Okay!”

Melissa nodded without hesitation and said softly, “No problem, but you have to be careful!”

A proud smile appeared on the corner of Dave’s mouth. As he had always encountered issues in the previous battles, he never knew how it really felt to be a victor.

As there was currently an opportunity in front of him, Dave naturally could not bear to let it go. He raised the weapon in his hand once again and quickly slashed at the army formation. Black knife lights flew up and down, almost filling the entire street. On the left side of the battlefield, scarlet snowflakes kept flying up, symbolizing those lives coming to an end.

In the end, the soldiers on the left side did not dare to face the powerful attack from Dave. They turned around and fled toward the city gate!

Dave was like a general who had won the battle. He stood in the middle of the street and let out a long howl toward the sky.

Melissa, who was beside him, said in a bad mood, “Stop it. Think of a way to send me to the east of the city! Besides my grandfather, Lord Cameron is the most senior noble in Serene Spring City. He used to be a very outstanding minister of Serene Spring City. However, we have to make sure that the old man is still alive. If he is still alive, perhaps we can get everyone in the city to support us!”

Dave knew that this was an important matter, so he did not delay at all when he heard that. He protected Melissa and ran straight to the east.

There was a tall and majestic mansion in the east district. There were two Dark Elves holding long swords. They were wearing the standard armor of Serene Spring City and were like two elf-shaped surveillance cameras. They were keeping watch of any movement in the front gate.

They were the soldiers who had been ordered by Darren to guard Cameron’s mansion once eliminating the Carter family. Even if the streets in the city were filled with the sounds of killing, it had nothing to do with them.

This was because they only had one mission and that was to ensure that Cameron could not leave his house even half a step regardless of whether Serene Spring City still existed. If he disobeyed, the two of them would definitely draw their swords and execute Cameron on the spot.

In the courtyard, Cameron’s wife, children, and the housekeeper were trying to dissuade Cameron who was about to open the door to leave.

Cameron’s wife hugged his thigh tightly and begged in a sorrowful voice, “You can’t go out now. It’s too dangerous outside. Haven’t you heard that Jessica’s troops have already started to massacre the city? If you go out now, wouldn’t it be the same as giving them an excuse to wipe out the Cameron family for nothing?’

Cameron shook his head and said, “I don’t care who will come and wipe out our family now, but I know that Serene Spring City still needs me, and the innocent residents in the city need me even more! I have to go out and do something for them. Instead of keeping me in this courtyard, it’s better for me to just crash my head here and die!”

After hearing his decisive tone, Cameron’s family did not dare to dissuade him anymore. They could only let go of their hands and watch as Cameron strode to the gate of the courtyard. He pushed the gate open angrily with both hands.

“Bang! Bang!”

The moment the front door of Cameron’s house swung opened, the sound of two heavy objects landing on the ground was heard. Dust flew everywhere and blocked Cameron’s vision.

“Cough, cough!”

Cameron coughed loudly. At the same time, he frowned and looked at the two figures standing in front of him through the dust.

When Cameron saw Dave, a hint of surprise and vigilance flashed in his eyes. However, his gaze soon shifted to Melissa. He was pleasantly surprised and quickly said, “Melissa, you’re still alive! That’s great! As long as you’re still alive, the Carter family will be able to keep the last of their bloodline. Your grandfather, father, and your brother will be able to rest in peace even if they die!”

When Melissa heard Cameron mention her family, she felt a little sad. She quickly said, “Lord Cameron, currently, there are no leaders in Serene Spring City. The soldiers who massacred the city have been defeated by this friend of mine. Please contact the other nobles in the city immediately to recall the rights of Darren and Jessica. We want to take back Serene Spring City and close the city gates to ensure the safety of the residents!”

Cameron was shocked when he heard that. He frowned and said, “Jessica may have done something wrong, but she is one of the twelve apostles acknowledged by God Gajero. If we usurp power without permission, I’m afraid that the gods will be dissatisfied. Why don’t you rest in my residence for a while? I’ll join forces with the other big families to persuade Jessica, and you should stop hanging out with the other elves!”

As he spoke, Cameron’s gaze fell on Dave once again. His tone was filled with worry, and intense hatred at the same time.

Melissa shook her head repeatedly and said in a deep voice, “Lord Cameron! Now is not the time to be pedantic. Even if you still maintain your faith in Gajero, you still can’t save Serene Spring City. Now, you can only give up your faith temporarily and work together with my friends to protect Serene Spring City!”

Cameron shook his head and said coldly, “You’re muddle-headed! You’ve been brainwashed by the bad guys! What do you mean by relying on them to save Serene Spring City? I’ll go to the streets now and stop those soldiers who are slaughtering the civilians. I don’t believe that there’s no other way to end the catastrophe of Serene Spring City!”

Melissa still wanted to advise Cameron at this time, but Dave shook his head at her, indicating that there was no need to say anymore.

Melissa wanted to say something but she stopped herself. She looked at Dave and could only let out a long sigh. She chose to remain silent.

Dave turned his head and looked at Cameron, who had a stubborn look on his face and was very wary of him. He smiled and said, “Old man, you don’t need to go to the streets and use your physical body to stop the soldiers who are slaughtering the civilians. This is because I’ve just killed a small portion of those soldiers. The rest have already fled out of the city! Serene Spring City is temporarily safe. Only by closing all the city gates as soon as possible can we prevent Darren from leading the soldiers back to kill us!”

Cameron looked at Dave. He originally wanted to scold Dave for talking big, but when he saw the long knife in Dave’s hand stained with pitch-black blood, his eyes could not help but tremble. He then muttered, “You’re deliberately pushing Serene Spring City to the brink of death! So what if you can drive the soldiers out of the city now? So what if the city gates are really closed? When City Lord Jessica returns, won’t the Dark Elves in the city still be killed like traitors?”

Dave shook his head helplessly and sighed randomly, “You don’t have to worry about that, because Jessica died a few days ago, and her entire body has been refined into pure psionic power. She doesn’t even have the chance to resurrect!”
