Chapter 797 Attack

"What did you say?" Souta narrowed his eyes and asked Alice again through the transmission talisman.

"The White Wheat City has fallen. Our forces in the city are annihilated and only a few lucky ones survived. We lost a lot this time. I'm willing to receive any punishment." Alice said.

She really felt that it was her fault. While she was enjoying the benefits of the underground base, the others were fighting for their lives. If she stayed, she could probably help them on time before they got annihilated.

But that seems impossible because even Kessa...

"It's fine. It's not your fault. It's just that we didn't expect that the enemy would attack us directly." Souta said to her through the transmission talisman.

"Elder Guan... He is dead. Yenxa is missing. Yuko is injured. Kessa is..." Alice paused.

"What is it? What happened to Kessa?" Souta asked.

"I don't know. It's better if you come here yourself." Alice couldn't explain Kessa's condition to him. It was weird and she hasn't encountered something like this in her life.

"Okay, I'll go there immediately." Souta said. He quickly cut the call and launched his body in the air like a missile.

Boom!!

The ground shook and his energy exploded. Princess Yaniesvyl and the others were shocked at this change of event. They didn't even know why Souta would suddenly leave with a horrible expression.

...

Souta hasn't fully recovered yet so his speed was slower than usual. He tried to use his remaining energy but it seems useless. He couldn't even exceed his normal speed before.

When he arrived at the White Wheat City, the other members of Astros and Dragon Council's agents were here present. He descended to the ground as Alice approached him. She already sensed his arrival so she quickly came here to greet him.

"This..."

Souta stared at the city in front of him. It was devastated and almost everything was destroyed. Corpses were scattered everywhere and a thick stench of blood lingered in the air.

He looked down and saw the corpse in front of him. It was Elder Guan's corpse. The Witch Clan Elder who accompanied them was killed by an unknown group.

Elder Guan's body was full of holes. It seems that he suffered greatly before he pa.s.sed away.

Alice, who was standing beside Souta, glanced at his expression but she kept her mouth shut. She didn't dare to say anything.

"Elder Guan... He's the one closest to Amanda. He is also the one who helped us when we were fighting the Witch Clan Leader..." Souta said plainly. His face was devoid of any emotion. He simply stared at the corpse with blank eyes.

"Where's Yuko?" Souta looked at Alice and asked.

"Follow me... She's alive but I don't think that she will be able to wake up soon. Her parasite was exhausted too so it couldn't repair her body completely." Alice explained.

The two walked in the barren land and stopped in front of a simple cabin.

Yuko's huge body was laying on a soft bed. Her body was full of wounds and there were people around her pouring healing potions on her wounds. There were also healers that were casting healing spells.

Souta stared at Yuko for a while before he turned around and said, "Guide me to Kessa... I need to check her condition too."

Yuko was fine now. She wouldn't die but she wouldn't be able to move her body for a while after she woke up. Plus, she did well in the battle. She reached a higher level. Unfortunately, the opponents this time were just too strong.

She was on the right track. By the time she woke up, she would be able to improve her strength tremendously.

Kessa's condition was strange according to Alice. He needed to check it and even if he couldn't understand it, he had Saya with him. Saya had vast knowledge and she knew a lot of things.

Souta paused on his track as he recalled something. The words of Draymond finally sank into his mind and started to connect a few pieces of the puzzle. He had a vague idea of what was happening here.

It means that the Hall of Power was the culprit.

Souta glanced at Alice and asked, "Do you know what happened to other cities or maybe regions?"

Alice narrowed her eyes as she tried to recall some information.

"I don't particularly remember that something big happened to other cities. The only noteworthy event was the attack from the tribes of the Earthen Woods." She said.

'It seems that I am right. The Hall Power is behind this.' The frown on Souta's face grew deeper.

The greatest threat... Could it be...

...

Two days ago...

The White Wheat City was heavily guarded by people from the Astros. Although they were guarding the city, some of the people were relaxed as they knew that they wouldn't partic.i.p.ate in the war against the tribes from Earthen Woods.

Still, some people were wondering about the state of the frontline. The tribes were strong and they had countless people. Each one of them was aggressive and they respect strength.

At this time, two people stepped inside the White Line City without others noticing them. It was like the people around them hadn't seen them at all.

The two people were wearing white robes that covered their figures. They looked around the area.

"Really, the perfect one is here..." One of the two people said. He raised his hand and pulled down his hood, revealing blonde hair and a pair of cat ears. He was called Drayrin.

"I didn't think that we would see the return of our Emperor so soon. It must be fate that brought her here." The other person said. He also pulled down his hood revealing a white face with pitch-black hair and red eyes. His name was Ragnis.

"Should we start now?" Drayrin asked.

"What about the greatest threat? How will we be able to deal with that?" Ragnis answered with a question.

"Sir Draymond tasked some people to deal with that monster. They are going to use the energy from Blood Sacrifice and sacrifice themselves if needed." Drayrin said.

"Oh, to be able to sacrifice themselves for the greater good. How lowly it is?" Ragnis smiled.

"Well, let's start our mission now..." Drayrin said as a smile formed on his face.

Both of their figures blur as they vanish from their position.

Ohm!!

Yenxa was in her room sitting in a lotus position. She was circulating her energy inside her body to refine every fiber of her body, starting from bones to muscles.

Suddenly, she opened her eyes and saw two people in front of her. The two people were wearing white robes and their eyes were filled with interest.

'What?! Who are they?'

Yenxa was shocked. She stood up and looked at the two warily. She didn't know when did they enter her room. It only means one thing, these two people were far beyond her level.

There was one thing for sure. These two didn't come with kind intention.

Without hesitation, Yenxa opened her pores and green-colored gas seeped out, filling the whole room with poison gas. She also waved her hand and cast magic spells.

"Attacking us as soon as you saw us? You are quite aggressive. As expected for a monster. You are territorial." Ragnis said as he stretched out his hand.

Yenxa looked up as her expression turned pale.

As soon as Ragnis raised his hand, an enormous amount of mana burst out offsetting the best feram that was coming from Yenxa. The two energy collided and flattened the whole building in the next second.

Boom!!

The explosion attracted the attention of the experts in the city. They quickly went toward the direction of the explosion and when they arrived, they saw two people wearing white robes. One of them was holding Yenxa by her neck.

"Lady Yenxa!!" They shouted.

Ragnis, who was holding Yenxa, turned his head and said, "Oh, it seems that they are here. Well, let's wrap this up quickly."

"Ugh!" Yenxa groaned in pain as she struggled with all of her might.

"Hey, even though you're the perfect one, your level is still far below mine so don't ever think about fighting me," Ragnis said as he put more force in his hand.

"Lady Yenxa!!" The experts charged forward as their energy skyrocketed reaching the maximum of their strength.

Drayrin, who was watching from the sideline, finally moved. He quickly appeared in front of the experts as both of his hands glowed with blueish light.

[Downfall Earth Breaker]!!

The sky suddenly turned dark and the atmosphere dropped drastically. The next moment, hundreds of boulders of ice descended like a meteor.

"Die! You have no place in our world."

The blocks of ice crashed on the ground with insane speed. The experts tried to melt it with fire but it didn't work. Their strength was too low to even think about countering the Drayrin's attack.

Suddenly, a huge energy net appeared above them and destroyed some of the ice blocks. And a figure landed in front of them and faced Drayrin.

"Everyone, I'll handle this. You should run, the level of these people is too high."

The man that appeared was none other than Elder Guan from the Witch Clan.
