Chapter 669: The might of space severing
Despite the immense power of the fireballs discharged by the stronghold, they were too slow to pose a real threat to the Legends or even Half-Step Legends. However, Sages—and especially Guardians—would not be so fortunate.
The Voroe Legends knew how dangerous such attacks could be for their troops, so they were already preparing to intercept them. Just as they dashed forward, ready to use their immense strength to neutralize the fiery spheres, three figures emerged from the shadows cast by the fireballs.
General Tiberius, accompanied by two other human Legends, had concealed themselves behind the oncoming fireballs, using them as a smokescreen to close the distance unnoticed. With the element of surprise on their side, they launched a ferocious strike at the Voroe Legends.
A clash between Legends was a phenomenon unto itself—sometimes battles between such powerful beings could stretch on for days, yet other times, they ended in a single, explosive instant.
The Voroe Sages, realizing the danger, had no choice but to abandon their attempts to intercept the fireballs. They could not afford even a moment of distraction. They turned to face their human counterparts instead.
With speed that bent the clouds and split the air, General Tiberius and the other two human Legends drove the Voroe high into the sky, far away from the rest of the battlefield.
Without the Voroe Legends to stop them, the fireballs continued on their deadly trajectory, descending upon the battlefield like the wrath of the heavens.
The Half-Step Legends had the awareness and agility to retreat and dodge the incoming infernos. They saved themselves just in time. Unfortunately, the same could not be said for the ordinary Sages and Guardians.
"BOOOOOOMMMMM!"
