Chapter 972 Force Against Force
The Holy Ward might be able to stop magical elementium other than holy light from gathering and taking shape, but the ward could not inhibit semi-summoned metal golems like the elementium magical machine.
The elementium magical machine crippled the Second Grade Silver Knight with a single punch before roaring and charging toward the hall with thunderous steps.
It ignored all the Iron Knights along the way, simply rushing ahead with no regard. A dozen Holy Flares and Holy Light Strikes landed on its metallic surface to no avail. They could only make sparks without the ability to harm its core in any manner.
The magical machine charged ferociously. Both the blinding holy spells and the courageous holy knights standing in the way were blown to pieces by its impenetrable body of steel, shattered into nothingness.
A Silver Knight heard the commotion outside and stormed in with sword in hand. He shouted, “Who dares make a comm…”
Before he could finish, a giant metal fist the size of a washbasin crashed toward his face with whistling winds.
The Silver Knight was barely able to shield himself with his sword, but both his longsword and his body were bent in a shocking arc from the impact of the punch. He returned to where he came from, coughing up blood as he flew into the hall.
“Greem.” Clearly, this commander of the holy knights had already known of the fire adept’s name through the mouth of their captive witch.
“Lambert, I have been waiting a long time for you!” Greem stood tall and pushed down the collapsing walls with his large body.
Commander Lambert had already predicted this scene happening in front of his eyes ever since the witch was transported to Haisas City. However, the savagery and recklessness of the opponent had far exceeded all his expectations.
He didn’t understand. Even though they were both Third Grade, what gave the opponent such immense confidence as to break into the headquarters of them holy knights and begin a slaughter?
Could…could these Third Grade adepts from another world simply be that much stronger than Third Grade Gold Knights?
However, the Holy Light would never be able to give him a logical explanation.
Just as Lambert brandished his blinding sword of light and prepared to face this daredevil of an adept, the elementium magical machine roared and charged at him.
Meanwhile, Greem started to draw fire runes in the air while loudly chanting deafening incantations. As he cast his spell, spatial ripples appeared near his head, forming into a temporary spatial wormhole.
While Greem was quickly casting his spells, a dozen Silver Knights surrounded him. They ignored the blazing heat of the Burning Domain and charged to his side, wildly hacking away at his wall of Inferno Shields and the two Lava Shields.
Unfortunately, they couldn’t tear down the shields quick enough!
As the final incantation completed, the wormhole took shape, and a vicious dragon with bright blue wings appeared before the crowd.
“Why did you summon me again so quickly, Greem? I haven’t even recovered from my wounds from last time.”
This thirty-meter-long dragon let out an earthshaking roar once he emerged from the wormhole. His overwhelming aura of dragon’s might spread throughout the Holy Light Chapel.
Naturally, the natives of Henvic Plane had never seen a living dragon, much less understood the complex and challenging Dragontongue.
“Hmph! I don’t see you complaining when you reap the benefits, and you push around whenever I get you to run some small errands. Look for yourself! This is a new city. The quicker you finish, the more time you have to go gather your wealth.” Greem shouted in his giant form.
“Hmm? A new city. It’s a new city, but it’s not as large as the last one!” With Arms tremendous Spirit, he could easily sense the intensity of life aura within several kilometers.
His heart bled profusely every time he remembered how he had only raided the city lord’s castle and two to three villas from the previous city before being forcefully sent back to Lance.
Thus, now that a brand new treasure chest had appeared before him, he couldn’t be more excited!
Arms roared furiously and opened his maw, unleashing a terrifying storm of lightning onto the battlefield. He then folded his wings and dove at the holy knight commander like a courageous champion.
Dragontongue magic might be convenient, but his own robust body was more reliable for ending the battle as soon as possible. As for whether a melee might cause him to suffer more wounds…this problem no longer existed in Arms’ greed-filled eyes!
