Chapter 580: The Combat Ability of Bylaw Enforcement Officers (2/2)
At the same time, he turned around and struck toward an empty space beside him.
That was where the invisible intruder was at.
Dashes of yellow, green, and cyan magic energy flames appeared under that person’s feet and completely enveloped him. The chaotic magic elements instantly broke his stealth, and he was revealed.
He was a mid-aged man who looked fortyish, and he was wearing a black cloak.
Before the mocking and proud smile on his face could really shine, it froze and turned into shock; he couldn’t understand how he was discovered. He didn’t touch a single soldier, and the lights from the [True Sight] didn’t shine on him.
“How could a weak soldier discover me? How? What went wrong?”
He didn’t have time to think about these questions.
At that moment, he felt heavy as the gravity in the area increased by more than a dozen times. Even though he was a mid-tier New Moon Elite, his knees were forced to bend a little. He was only able to straighten his legs after unleashing his warrior energy. Then, the ground he was standing on turned soft, and his legs started to sink in. In the meantime, a lot of veins with sharp thorns on them grew from the swamp and coiled onto his legs.
Magic arrays were instantly activated.
Now, that saint seiya was already in his face, striking toward him.
“Damn it!” this mid-aged man growled and punched out, trying to defend himself.
Boom!!!!
Their hands collided, and it made this intruder sink into the swamp even more.
In an instant, more than half of his thighs were in the swamp.
On the other hand, that saint seiya roared as he flew back and spat out a mouthful of blood. The difference in their strengths was too significant. Even though this intruder didn’t have enough time to use all his strength, the Three-Star Warrior was hit by a Moon-Class Elite and got severely injured; his arm bones almost broke.
If others suffered from such a blow, they might have fainted already. However, this saint seiya was fierce; as he got send flying in the air, he shouted, “[Dragon Slayers], shoot!!!”
Now, Fei realized that this saint seiya tried to attack this intruder so that the latter would sink into the swamp even more. What this soldier did just bought time for the crossbows to shoot at the enemy.
Before this soldier made his move, he already knew that he was going to be severely injured. However, he still acted without hesitation; he was a true warrior.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Three crossbows moved and shot out three magic arrows as soon as that saint seiya shouted, and the arrows almost instantly got to the mid-aged man who quickly escaped from the magic arrays.
The power within the arrows surprised this mid-aged man, and he had to unleash his full strength to fight against them.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
This person was indeed strong. As the explosions happened, he pushed the three huge magic arrows, that were shot out of the [Dragon Slayers], off trajectory even though his hands bleed.
However, that impact force pushed him, who just got out of the swamp, back deep into it. Now, he was stuck in there waist down.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Five more crossbows fired, and the sharp air-piercing noises sounded like the vicious laughs of the Grim Reaper.
The magic defense system in the [City of Heroes] was powerful, and many components worked together well. Without giving this mid-aged man the chance to catch his breath, more than a dozen [Dragon Slayers] on the walls fire altogether.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
A series of explosions appeared
The magic energy flame and the clouds of dust completely enveloped the area.
Fei vaguely saw the spilling of blood and heard a muffled grown, but he couldn’t be sure since a lot of things was going on. No one knew if this mid-aged man dodged all attacks or not.
“Capture him alive! We need to know who he is and how he got in here!” Brook shouted.
Highly cautious, the bylaw enforcement officers and saint seiyas slowly moved toward the center of the clouds of dust.
