Chapter 532: Against The Epic - Part 6 (1/2)
Before the three old men could reach the spot where the thunder swords floated around, the thunder sword fell. The explosion could be seen from a distance as they felt the shock wave of the explosion. The ground shook as well, forcing the three old men to halt their steps.
The three looked at each other, ”Thunder Elemental Power?” Roan blurted out with a confused tone. This was the first time that someone controlled the thunder, there was no such person in the history of the Ortis Continent and even until now, no one could control the thunder even to cause a phenomenon like this. Summoning the dark clouds and rain. Yes, rain poured down as the thunder sword struck down. This was more like someone controlling the weather, not an Elemental Power.
The three old men did not dare to rush over. They waited until all thirty-five thunder swords to strike down that they dared to move. They were not far from the explosion and soon they arrived at the location.
The five thousand knights that camped in this location were scattered around as the area was blasted. The burn mark on the ground was a clear mark that the thunder sword struck this place.
”What happened?” Roan muttered, but then Tristan pulled his two friends behind the tree, ”Don't show up! We are here not to get involved with the fight. Maybe Biaska Town is never their target,” The three old men hid behind the tree while observing knights from the flank.
Some of the knights were on the ground, groaning in pain as their armor charred black. Some of the knights did not even move, they were unlucky and died from the thunder sword, and most of them were still standing despite the injuries they suffered.
”Just what they fight against?” Roan muttered in a low voice until they heard a shout from the frontline, ”Don't let the woman cast the skill again! Charge!”

A few minutes back
All the thirty-five thunder swords struck down the shield and Zowen managed to break the initial shield they cast. However, after the last ice shield crumbled, another ice shield formed, sturdier and stronger. But the last shield still broke down on the thirty-third thunder sword. The ice shield fell apart and the last two thunder swords struck the formation.
During this process, Tang Shaoyang witnessed that Duran Ambrose and Derekh Malone activated their bloodline transformation. From Prince Kaiden's information, he could know that by reaching Epic, one could choose to awaken their bloodline, or get the second class, or even get the second talent. Duran Ambrose and Derekh Malone chose to awaken their bloodline for their reward.
The two had become similar to beastmen. Derekh Malone grew up the green-feathered wing on his back as his head turned into the head of a green-feathered bird. The yellow beak, the green eyes, and the crown-like thorn on his head. He retained his two hands but his feet turned into the bird's feet, turning into talons.
As for Duran Ambrose, snowy-white fur grew on his skin as his face changed into the wolf's face with cyan eyes. Standing with his two feet, Duran was more like a werewolf but had a white smooth fur. The two retained their hands so they still could hold their weapons.
Duran raised his sword toward Zowen, ”Don't let the woman cast the skill again! Charge!” Duran and Ambrose led the charge and the knights who could stand followed them.
