Chapter 896: Volume 28 Long Spear Plowing the Courtyard - 13 Bear
Komer’s judgement was correct. With the release of the Lightning power, a series of Fire snakes suddenly formed a dense network of fire in the space, spurred on by the strong Qi within the vortex of thunder-based space, spreading out fiercely like a golden sea of fire that would turn everything within the space to ashes.
Komer’s body suddenly bent down, shrinking to half its size in an instant. This allowed him to minimize the surface area hit by the Magical arrows while concentrating his power to counter the impact of the arrows.
The Sky Demon Cover had already been summoned; mere defensive resistance could no longer withstand the combined assault of Magic Power and physical force. Komer had no choice but to take a risk.
At the very last moment before the Magical arrows struck, the Sky Demon Cover burst apart, releasing a wild surge of Qi from every pore of Komer’s body. The explosion of his total Mana finally saved his life. For a Mage, such sudden blows, especially those involving physical force, were the hardest to guard against. No Mage, unprepared, could withstand a Warrior, as the summoning of Magic Power always required a buffer period, and clearly, his opponent did not want to give Komer that chance.
But the instincts Komer had honed over a long time saved him at the last moment. Relying solely on the Sky Demon Cover was not enough to withstand the Magical arrows, but the addition of the Dark Origin Force explosion was enough to handle this disaster.
Millions of Magical arrows scattered in the explosion of the Sky Demon Cover and the Dark Origin Force, yet a few still penetrated the strong counterattack and struck Komer, who was already nearing collapse in this final blow, causing his body to stagger. The network of fire and the force of lightning also roiled and rolled in the space, and the three swordsmen flying in the air directed their Knight’s Swords, glowing blue, towards Komer.
The corners of Komer’s mouth and eyes both spilled blood, and he couldn’t help but bitterly smile to himself. His opponent’s plan was too perfect, the Magical arrows were nearly fatal, clearly viewing him as their greatest foe. Had he not forcibly activated the Dark Origin Force along with the Sky Demon Cover, the arrows would have riddled him like a nest of hornets, not to mention the persistent targeting of him with Fire Magic and Thunder Magic, and now there were also three swordsmen at their prime.
Komer, falling to the ground, suppressed the surging blood in his chest. At this moment, his only choice was to draw on his last strength to pull out the Cosmic Bag and release a spell. Whether he could survive might just depend on this one hope. Komer didn’t ask for much, only hoping to hold on until Solonberg and Rebury could arrive in time. The garden was not far from the main building of the Lord’s Mansion, literally moments away – it all depended on Solonberg and his group’s reaction now.
