Chapter 132: Royal Guard (III)
The leader of the enemy force clenched his teeth in pain as he held his bleeding arm, exerting as much pressure as he could to stop the bleeding. Even though the woman performed that last slash as she dodged the torrent of flames, she still managed to sever the main arteries in his arm and important tendons, making it impossible for him even to raise it anymore.
If it weren’t for his enhanced vitality, thanks to his Level, the man would have passed out immediately due to blood loss. However, if he kept bleeding like that, it was just a matter of minutes before he would black out and die.
"Dammit!" the man roared as his left hand was set ablaze, scorching the skin around the wound, cauterizing it.
Amara’s eyes widened as she saw the man’s determination, but she remained silent, simply waiting for an answer to her questions. The woman knew that time was her ally, so the longer things took, the better.
The man’s face was pale due to the agony he had just endured, and cold sweat covered his back as he attempted to regulate his breathing. He stood up after a few seconds, his eyes full of poisonous rage as he focused on the woman, eager to send the entire power of his force against her, but he did not lose himself to the rage.
His eyes darted through the terrain and saw how the military force at the mountain’s base was ready to strike. They had lost four Mages, and he was in very bad condition. If a fight were to start, while they would definitely harm the other side, he and all his men would die, so he needed to be smart.
"I am Rodrick Camel, and we came from Trigun City. Our leader is Fernon, who has already dominated the entire city. He is a Level 10 Mage!" A sharp light appeared in Rodrick’s eyes as he shouted those words, ensuring everybody heard the last part.
The soldiers at the mountain’s base adopted solemn expressions as they heard those words. The higher your level, the more energy you hold and the more powerful the spells you can unleash. It was not hard for a Level 10 Mage to level a small town and kill hundreds of people from a distance.
On the other hand, Amara maintained a flawless expression, as those words had no effect on her. It did not matter if the man’s leader was a Level 10 Mage, as she firmly believed that there was no human in Terra who could face the Xaos King. Not to mention that she did not think a single word from the man was true.
The Silent Wind Military Base was in Inkmetal City, and Triggun City was the neighboring city, so they were close enough to have come to this place. However, Trigun City was also where Arabus’s high demonic horde came from.
How could someone have dominated the city when less than a month and a half ago, the Abyssal demon and over eight thousand demonic beasts emerged from there?
