Chapter 1068: Destruction of the Ekatoe City: Weakening

"Ohm!!"

"What's happening?" Isabella muttered.

Suddenly, the golems became stronger and faster. One of the three golems that had been stuck on the ground rose and charged toward her.

Swoosh!

Isabella immediately drew her dagger and swiftly cut through the space in front of her. She also made sure to hide her presence.

By the time the golem reached the spot, she was already gone.

Isabella appeared a hundred meters away and breathed a sigh of relief.

That was close.

Fortunately, her spatial ability had improved from all the training she had done before.

"But jumping through space is quite taxing now..." Isabella muttered.

She recalled what Alexander had said: jumping through the fabric of space would put pressure on her body and energy due to the outburst of Imperium, which had strengthened the fabric

of space.

As a result, a large chunk of her mana was consumed just by performing that spatial jump.

"I can't always do this. I have to find a way," Isabella said.

Bang!!

An explosion rang out, causing Isabella to turn her head. She saw Yuko being thrown aside by the golem she had been fighting.

Her body crashed to the ground, creating a deep gully.

"This is bad..." Isabella muttered.

The golem was about to chase after Yuko when something unexpected happened.

"We're here!" A voice echoed, and a figure collided with the golem.

Bang!!

Isabella breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing who had arrived.

It was Gragas, along with a few of his apprentices. Although their main profession wasn't combat-related, they could still be of help in this grave situation.

"I'm here helping the civilians, but after Kessa used her release form, we no longer need to," Gragas said, feeling heavy in his heart.

That's right-he had been assisting the civilians with a few of his apprentices, but the immense best feram that swept through the entire city had stopped him. She had unknowingly killed the ordinary people with her energy pressure.

Swoosh!!

A series of flames rained down from above, crashing into the other three golems.

Isabella, Leef, and the other witches looked up and saw a massive green dragon, accompanied by dozens of monsters.

Doranjan and the others had arrived to help.

Seeing the new arrivals, Walfen frowned slightly.

...

In the south, the battle was reaching its breaking point.

Boom! Boom!

Shockwave after shockwave as a rain of light fell from above, destroying the remaining structures in the area.

Vashno, Eztein, and Franklin were fiercely battling the mad Arie without pause.

"We're reaching the limit of the parasite!" Eztein shouted, narrowly avoiding the beams of light.

"I know, but it's not easy to defeat her!" Vashno replied.

In the next second, Eztein's arm was severed again by the ray of light. He immediately regenerated it using the parasite.

"You bunch of trash!!" Arie roared as she continued firing her attacks.

Swoosh!!

Vashno, Eztein, and Franklin flew in different directions to divide her attention. She couldn't focus properly, giving them a significant advantage. However, it wasn't easy to approach her due to the overwhelming power of her attacks.

Bang!!

Vashno and Eztein attacked from both sides, but Arie easily blocked their strikes.

"It hurts!! It hurts!! Argh!!"

Arie roared furiously as a surge of mana erupted within her body.

Vashno and Eztein were pushed back, but something happened below. A massive block of land soared through the air, heading toward Arie.

Arie gritted her teeth and unleashed another barrage of rays of light, destroying the piece of

land.

Bang!!

The rubble scattered in midair, and Franklin emerged from the debris. His energy swirled around his fist as he threw a powerful punch.

Arie couldn't avoid it, so she took the attack head-on and fired back.

Boom!!

Franklin's attack sent her soaring upward, while Arie's counterattack hurled him to the ground. It was clear she had won this exchange, as her attacks pierced through Franklin's

limbs.

Ugh!!

Franklin spat a mouthful of blood. His energy level had diminished as his dream power and elemental drive slowly faded. He didn't have much strength left, and his parasite could barely heal his wounds.

"It's up to you!" Franklin grinned.

Swoosh!!

Arie's eyes widened as she looked up and saw two figures heading straight for her from above.

AHHHH!!

Eztein gritted his teeth as three elements gathered around the tip of the [Hell Fiend Spear]. Vashno also poured all his strength into the attack. His aura flared up as he threw a powerful

punch.

"This is it!"

Arie was about to conjure a barrier when the two were already in front of her. She was caught off guard, unable to think clearly due to the accumulated pain from the attacks she had

received.

She didn't even know how they had gotten so close.

"GO DOWN!!"

Vashno and Eztein launched their attacks simultaneously.

[Destruction Stars of Fist]!!

[Heaven's Piercing Strike]!!

In the next moment, two massive attacks struck Arie's body before she could finish conjuring

her barrier. The impact caused all sorts of phenomena in midair. The elements and energy radiated above the devastated land, creating a magnificent yet horrifying scene.

Swoosh!!

Arie left a straight line of light as she violently crashed into the ground. Cracks spread out,

and the land collapsed, creating a massive pit.

Boom!!

Vashno and Eztein landed and immediately fell to their knees. They didn't have much strength left after their attacks. The intense energy they had been radiating slowly faded.

"Where's the old man?" Eztein asked.

"He's safe," ," Vashno replied, sitting down and leaning his back against a block of rock.

Eztein gazed at the massive pit and asked, "Do you think we got her?"

"I don't know. If she manages to get up, then we're done," Vashno replied.

They no longer had the strength to fight, and there would be one outcome if Arie managed to

recover from their attacks.

"Sir Vashno, Sir Eztein, we have to go now."

A voice called from behind the two.

Vashno and Eztein turned their heads and saw the mages of Astros, accompanied by Franklin.

They were the ones who moved Franklin out of the way before their attacks landed on Arie. Moreover, they were also the reason why Vashno and Eztein managed to close the distance and get in front of Arie before she could even cast a barrier. At the right moment, the mages

cast buff spells to boost their speed and strength.

The sudden increase in speed and strength caught Arie off guard. The pain she was experiencing also played a significant role in why their plan worked.

The mages gave Eztein and Vashno potions to slightly recover their energy.

"Thanks," Eztein said.

Ohm!!

Suddenly, a strange sensation coursed through everyone.

"Did you feel that?" Vashno asked.

"Yeah..." Eztein nodded as he looked up.

Franklin forced himself to stand and said, "The barrier formation is getting weaker..."

The mages around them exchanged confused glances.

In the next moment, the ground trembled as a powerful surge of energy erupted from the

massive pit.

Boom!!

Eztein, Vashno, Franklin, and the others turned their heads, their eyes widening in shock.

They were familiar with this energy signature. After all, they had just fought the person who

possessed it.

Swoosh!!

A woman emerged from the pit, massaging her temples. Her body was covered in blood, and thick energy radiated from her.

"Argh, it still hurts, but it's slowly fading..."

It was Arie.

She had somehow managed to get back up after withstanding the insane attacks from Eztein

and Vashno.

"I thought I was going to faint. Luckily, the suppression is weakening," Arie muttered to herself as she walked with unsteady steps.

Eztein realized something and slowly said in shock, "The suppression is weakening...?! Don't

tell me...?"

Ohm!!

Eztein and the others looked up as a blazing fire erupted from the hole in the barrier above.

"What is that?!"

Arie was the same. She narrowed her eyes and glanced upward.

Not just her, but everyone in the city who was still alive saw the blazing fire emerging from

the gigantic hole in the barrier. The temperature immediately changed as the fire raged

relentlessly.

Ohm!!

...

In the Guardian Fortress.

Smoke and fire rose into the air, and corpses were scattered everywhere.

A man with wolf-like characteristics stood, staring at the fire in the sky.

He was Ferdin, the leader of the Northern Green Wolf Tribe.

Ferdin tore his gaze from the sky and glanced at the man before him. "What did you do?

You've weakened the suppression of the barrier formation! Why?"

Torkez glanced at Alice, who was lying on the ground, covered in blood. "I didn't do anything.

Did you?"

Ferdin tilted his head, clearly confused.

Alice forcefully lifted her head and weakly said, "D-Don't tell him anything!"

Ferdin frowned as he kicked Alice in the stomach, then opened his palm and threw a ball of

energy.

Boom!!

An explosion erupted where Alice had crashed.

Ferdin glanced at the aftermath before clicking his tongue in annoyance. "Tsk, still alive. You know what? All of you are like cockroaches. Hard to kill with that damn regeneration." The entire western area was obliterated. Ferdin had massacred everyone, and Alice was the only survivor. She was the only one with enough strength to fight, but Ferdin had defeated

her.

In the end, Ferdin had found the Guardian Fortress and killed everyone there.

Only a few remained alive.
