Chapter 557: Coffin Master Bishop? (1/2)

The Sequoia Corps arcane masters wrapped in sunlight barriers screamed in astonishment.

The golden figures looked like various arcane masters. They were like a Corps rushing out of the melting metal wall!

However, these golden figures were made out of metal heated to an extreme temperature. They had unbelievable speed as the Sequoia Corps arcane masters would get hit by them no matter how they teleported around.

Countless death throes rang out.

The sunlight barriers were broken and the burning metal directly covered the Sequoia Corps arcane masters.

“Ah!”

The surviving Sequoia Corps arcane masters desperately ran back to safety. However, the golden figures relentlessly chased after them.

The Sequoia Corps arcane masters fell down after getting fully covered in golden molten metal.

“What happened on the other side?”

Even Ayrin’s side could sense the terrifying heat and light along with the despairing screams.

“What’s that?”

Rinloran was completely astonished.

The golden figures seemed to possess their own lives and wills. They were chasing after the enemies themselves. It was definitely not a forbidden skill that an arcane master could cast.

“This is the Heroic Spirit Wall.”

Mody explained, “The two walls of the Fearotz Stronghold were originally erected after the last battle of the Radiance Corps during the Magus Era. In a major war against the dark magus and Evil Dragon army remnants, tens of thousands of arcane masters fell here. Their mental strength and wills were collected by the Dwarves using Heroic Spirit Gems. When Fearotz faces a true crisis, their mental strength and wills reawaken and defend Fearotz as well as the Kingdom of Doa for one final time.”

......

“Is that the true strength of our Fearotz Stronghold?”

The Royal Thorns Corps arcane masters were also astonished.

It should be a secret known only to the Chief General and Corps Leader. Even the Corps generals leading the various brigades did not know such a huge secret was kept within the Fearotz metal wall.

“Lord Divana!”

The few generals in the Sequoia Corps wailed.

The molten metal flowed unhindered. The golden figures were still pursuing the remnants of the Sequoia Corps.

Just by looking at the number of golden figures, they could be certain the Sequoia Corps and Undead Corps would be finished off. The surviving arcane masters would only amount to one or two tenths.

After the end of the War with Dragons, the Depraved Crimson Moon Elven Clan had hidden themselves and accumulated their strength for over a thousand years to reach their current force. However, it was all gone in one war.

Divana’s face paled. After losing control of his emotions for an instant, his eyes settled into absolute calmness.

He glanced towards the distance in the direction of the swamp.

There was no use weeping before the outcome of the war settled.

Since the Fearotz Stronghold had such a high defensive strength, he would not be able to breach it even if he had double his current force.

Hence, the current situation had become extremely simple. It depended on what kind of power that important figure in the Thorns Swamp would display.

The despairing screams gradually became faint and returned to absolute silence.

The Undead Corps that was slower had been completely annihilated. The originally powerful Sequoia Corps only had several hundreds arcane masters left.

All of the Crimson Moon Trees had been burnt. Only dead arcane masters fixed in various strange poses after getting plated by a layer of golden metal were left.

The surviving Sequoia Corps arcane masters had lost all will to fight. Cold sweat drenched their backs.

Rinloran recovered from his astonishment and asked Mody, “Since the Fearotz Stronghold possesses such strength, why were you preparing to evacuate?”

“Because only a six-gate arcane master can activate this strength. After activating it, the six-gate arcane master will be left exhausted.”

Mody looked at Rinloran, “Before you arrived, Fearotz Stronghold only had one six-gate arcane master.”

“It’s you.” Rinloran finally understood. He looked at Mody, “So that’s why you became the Acting Leader.”

Mody revealed a complicated expression.
