Chapter 162: The God of Death’s sudden appearance
“An opportunity!”
Charlotte also halted abruptly. Along with the outpour of a stream of arcane particles, the metallic avatar in front of her crashed on the fallen Lindon at an unprecedented speed.
A miserable scream immediately came from Lindon, as well as the sound of many broken bones.
At the same time, Ferguillo flashed without a sound beside Gullit.
“Feast of Death!”
His eyes continuously bleeding, Gullit fell backward. Countless black shadows drilled out from the ground at the same time, hurtling at Ferguillo.
But Ferguillo had completely seen through his actions. A crimson feather appeared in the air without a sound. Gullit directly crashed against this crimson feather.
“Puff!”
The feather pierced through Gullit as if slicing through butter, splashing a bloody wave.
“It’s our win!”
Ayrin braced his hands on his knees, breathing in pain, but his heart was filled with the joy of victory.
In this battle where two teams of six fought against each other, the six on his side could still keep fighting, but the other side only had Massay and Chirade left.
Now that it was six versus two, Massay and Chirade could no longer hope to defeat them.
“A guy this powerful… He was killed in battle just like that.”
His eyes swept by Shinro’s corpse then, contradictory feelings arising in his chest.
One day prior, this was still the opponent he was determined to defeat in the tournament.
“Ferguillo actually possesses such power!”
“This guy’s clearly has a single open gate, but he can defeat a three-gate arcane master in battle.”
“These guys from St. Lauren, what kind of freaks are they?!”
Massay and Chirade were deathly pale, trembling nonstop.
Ferguillo and Ayrin hadn’t been much to speak of in their eyes, but in this fight, rather than Audrey, they had been the keystones to victory.
The curtains were about to fall on the entire situation.
However, when a gem-like feather pierced through Gullit’s body, splashing out fresh blood, when Gullit fell heavily on the ground, Ferguillo suddenly seemed to sense something. The pink color in his left eye seemed to revolve at a swift pace.
The feather that had just gone through Gullit’s body suddenly accelerated, went around him, and slashed at the air behind him.
“What!”
Everyone saw with astonishment a faint, somewhat indistinct figure suddenly rise behind Ferguillo, like a nightmare from a dream.
“Puff!”
The gem-like feather stabbed into this vague figure. However, as if it’d stabbed into a deep pool of water, it created a circular rippled before disappearing.
This figure had already stretched out a hand and came into contact with Ferguillo.
Ferguillo’s entire person froze.
Blood and dazzling arcane particles suddenly sprayed from his chest.
Then an arm directly passed through his chest, even lifting his body with it.
“Ferguillo!”
In this instant, apart from Ayrin’s tremendous cry of surprise, everyone else completely stopped breathing.
The vague figure became more and more distinct.
A boy with short hair appeared in everyone’s eyes, wearing Hellfire Academy’s uniform, his eyes brimming with the aura of death, looking at everyone as though he were looking at dead men.
“Lotton?!”
A cry of disbelief came from somewhere.
Everyone recognized him at first glance, but the first one to shout in surprise was actually Massay.
“It’s him?… Ferguillo…”
A faint tremble started to course through Ayrin.
He wanted to rush forward, but his subconsciousness kept his feet rooted to the ground instead.
Lotton’s arm was still up in the air, lifting Ferguillo’s body with it, its two feet suspended in the air.
Ferguillo hadn’t passed out yet, but he couldn’t move. Blood flowed down from Lotton’s arm. There wasn’t any unusual expression on Lotton’s face.
“Let go of Ferguillo!”
His apathetic attitude caused an unprecedented wrath in Ayrin. He yelled in fury, all the bones in his body crackling.
“What on earth is Dias planning?”
However, Lotton didn’t seem to have heard Ayrin’s roar at all. He merely glanced at Massay and Chirade, saying in a low, deep voice, “He used me and that other team to help you attract attention so that you can come here, what’s the reason?”
“You…” Massay couldn’t stop trembling either. “You… you’re actually betraying lord Dias? You actually disobeyed his order and came here instead!”
“No need for nonsense. You might be dead already without me. Stop wasting time. The arcane teams outside might catch up to this place any second now.” Lotton shook his head. “Tell me the entire plan, that’s the only way you can survive.”
“This place is the water tower supplying the entirety of Eichemalar’s main area!”
