Chapter 266: It Begins (2/2)
Ayrin became embarrassed as he scratched his head in shame.
“Whew……”
Lotner and the others collectively let out their breaths and wiped their sweat as they thought, “It was only a bluff.”
“Wood Concealment Skill!”
But then, Ayrin invoked the skill once more.
“Only those who have a great affinity for wood type energy can learn this skill. In our entire Academy, only Matteo has been able to successfully learn it.”
“If it was Rinloran, with his high rank Elven Bloodline, then he might have some chance of success. But for someone like you, it is completely impossible. You are just wasting your time and arcane particles.”
Lotner and the others were delighted as they watched Ayrin.
“What?!”
But in the next moment, their eyes nearly bulged out of their sockets as they watched Ayrin soundlessly merged into the giant mushroom which had just bounced him off without a trace.
“How is this possible?!”
“How could he learn Wood Concealment Skill?!”
After several seconds of blankly breathing, Lotner and the others went nuts.
“Why are you guys so agitated?”
Stingham’s eyes were full of contempt as he looked at them and muttered, “He even managed to learn the skills of a Black Witch. Just how can your Wood Concealment Skill compare?”
“Black Witch? He’s managed to learn skills from the Magus Era?”
Lotner abruptly felt on the verge of going insane.
“It’s all your fault! You had us give them all our strongest skills! If they manage to learn all of them, they will know all our secrets! How are we going to fight them if we meet them in the future?!” Presley and the others screamed towards Lotner after several seconds of daze.
“How was I supposed to know that he could learn it?!”
“It’s all your fault! If you didn’t decide to try and attract other teams over to ambush them, how could we have fallen into such a wretched state?!”
“You are the most incompetent captain ever!”
“Are you guys really turning all the blame towards me?!”
The six Abel Academy team members began to fight amongst themselves.
“These fellows thought we couldn’t learn these skills? That’s why they gave them to us? Detestable! Have a taste of my whip!” Stingham shouted as he finally regained his senses.
“That’s?!”
But right at this moment, Stingham froze.
“What’s going on?” Ayrin asked as he comically jumped out from within the giant mushroom.
Even from within the giant mushroom, he could see the gigantic and bright pillar of light shooting up into the distant sky.
“It’s time? This is the signal to enter the Path of Evil and begin our assault on Fallen Shadow Valley!”
The six Abel Academy members also stopped their clashing as they turned and watched the pillar as well.
“It’s begun…”
Rinloran took a slow and deep breath.
Only several seconds had passed since the pillar of light first appeared, but he could already feel countless tremors caused by the collision of powerful arcane energy fluctuations passing through the ground beneath him.
Explosions and other loud sounds of battle began to emanate over from the direction of Fallen Shadow Valley.
“No need to deal with them any longer, let’s hurry and leave!” Ayrin decisively shouted as he swiftly moved in the direction of Fallen Shadow Valley.
At this moment, he didn’t think about what kind of powerful enemy he might encounter or the poor, exhausted state of him and his teammates.
The only thought running through his mind was that victory would only be obtained if each and every one of the countless arcane teams charged into battle without hesitation and played their part.
“When the darkness before dawn twisted and whirled…”
“And the Evil Dragon’s forces gradually unfurled…”
“A world-destroying crisis, despair uncurled…”
“Rose the flickering flame of hope on the verge of extinction!”
“Arise and fight, brave warrior!”
“Fight with courage! Brave warrior!”
As he ran, he could hear the anthem of Holy Dawn Academy whistling through his ear.
