Chapter 183
Chapter 183: The swift and fierce silver spear
Ten Gryphon Legion soldiers and Bob Ascher, as well as the swordmaster Gabriel, — little dark dragon Gilbert would be courting death if he attempted to face this enormous amount of strength head on.
Beneath Han Shuo’s urging, Gilbert realized the magnitude of the situation they were in and didn’t waste time with cheeky remarks. He charged over from the now obliterated wall, while the archers and spear throwers on Gabriel’s side found their footing once more in a newly formed formation. They suddenly shot out in unison and filled the blotted out the skies with arrows and spears, targeting Gilbert.
Han Shuo and the others had long since made preparations. Emily shot out a dark magical spell and formed a grey, semi-circle protective barrier in the air. Han Shuo also chanted the incantation for Dark Mist, covering the entire area in darkness. Candice, Phoebe, and Caspian also used a variety of methods to smash the arrows and spears that came their way.
Han Shuo had already been injured when he had crossed blades with Gabriel earlier. It was a good thing that he could call upon his necromancy magic without his magical yuan. When Han Shuo chanted out a magical spell, several zombie and hate warriors suddenly appeared on the ground, in addition to dozens of skeletal warriors, forming a blockade in the gap in the wall that had been made by Gilbert.
The summoned dark creatures played the roles of meat shields, filling up the gap so that the attacks fell only on them.
Add to this Emily’s magic shield and Han Shuo’s Dark Mist, as well as Phoebe and Candice’s efforts, Gilbert didn’t suffer any injuries in the end.
The dark creatures that Han Shuo had summoned were shot full of arrows and spears, and he once again began chanting, but this time it was the “Corpse Explosion” spell that he’d just mastered when the soldiers of the Gryphon Legion drew near, making two hate warriors explode, sending flesh and blood flying through the sky. The ten soldiers were caught off guard and were all sent crashing backwards.
“Take to the sky and get us out of here!” Han Shuo yelled out as he made use of this chance in which the dark creatures were blocking all the arrows and spears.
Gilbert didn’t hesitate when he heard Han Shuo’s order and swung his enormous body around, crushing two houses by his side. Boulders hurtled through the air as trees snapped. Gilbert roared as his body, previously hovering close to the ground, suddenly shot towards the dark sky.
“Honored master, where are we flying to? If you don’t make a decision soon, we’ll be leaving Valen City!” Gilbert’s voice suddenly rang out in the frosty winter air.
Valen City was a mess at the moment and so the best and wisest course of action was to leave. However, if they left now, those still in Valen City would likely be in great danger. Hesitation showed on Han Shuo’s face as he looked uncertainly at those assembled in front of him.
“My cousin is very good to me and I cannot leave him in danger!” Phoebe resolutely expressed her stance when she saw Han Shuo look at her.
“I can’t give up on my battle comrades!” Candice also spoke up.
When Han Shuo looked at Emily, Emily smiled charmingly, “I’ll go with whatever you decide!”
“Gilbert, return to the hotel!” Han Shuo stomped down on the back of the dark dragon after thinking for a while.
