Chapter 502: Chapter 470: The 7th Tier “Reaper’s Blade”
“Is it over?”
Chris suddenly spoke.
His voice was unusually hoarse, sounding heavier than in days past.
Darren then realized that even someone like Chris, who seemed to have no emotions, still carried some inner weight in his heart. Thankfully, some of that “weight” would now be leaving him.
It would also be leaving Darren.
Yes, that was the source of the “sense of relief.”
But what about beyond that? His own life had already accumulated too many “weights,” and he, bearing them, would never be able to attain release, just like his father and grandfather had been.
They died because of it.
But it was also because of that inescapable “weight” that they lived on forever.
Darren nodded his head.
“Yes, at least today’s battle is over,” he said.
“At least…”
“Our fate with the Meyer family is about to come to a definitive end.”
Compared to the burdens brought by so many “weights,” he was prouder of them, and felt that as a “ship,” he might actually be more like an unpredictable, ever-changing specter ship, probably even scaring the crew more aggressively.
“We have no way back; once we set sail, we must go forward to the end.”
——
The Cyart army, led by the Fischer family, had already crushed the main forces of the three nations’ Cyart people.
Moreover, they themselves had suffered almost no damage.
In fact, this was to be expected, because Karl’s extraordinary power was extraordinary in itself, and the strength and influence owned by the Fischer family had been growing like a snowball over the past few decades, so their true might was far beyond what it appeared on paper.
In the following weeks, the Cyart people began sweeping the battlefield, and since the main forces of the tri-alliance had already been destroyed, the remaining routed troops were nothing more than easy prey, left to be hunted down and scattered.
It was like crushing dry weeds and smashing rotten wood.
The Cyart people broke through the enemy’s lines with the force of a thunderbolt; with huge advantages in intelligence and morale, they swiftly occupied key strategic points, cutting off the remaining troops’ retreat and supply lines. They also used air support from their monarch-level experts to launch fierce attacks on the scattered troops, further weakening their combat capabilities.
Under the Cyart’s furious assault, the tri-nation’s defensive line soon collapsed, the soldiers fell into chaos and panic, and they began to throw away their weapons and fled or surrendered.
With their organization lost, the remaining troops were quickly annihilated by the Cyart people.
This defeat was catastrophic, leading to a significant loss of life and material, which caused the troops’ morale to totally collapse, unable to regroup for an effective resistance.
As the remnants were defeated, the situation on the battlefield changed rapidly.
The Cyart people began to occupy more territory and resources, further consolidating their strategic position, while the remnants could only retreat, eventually being completely expelled from Cyart territory.
Finally, Chris Fischer ascended to the Seventh Tier.
Yes, he completed the ritual.
Participating in the killing of three enemies that he could acknowledge… one of which was the Reforging Church’s cardinal “The Destroyer,” and another was the “Blood Flame King” Flamme Meyer of the Meyer family.
There was no doubt that both “The Destroyer” and the “Blood Flame King” were worthy opponents.
Their strength lay not only in their might but also in their mindset, with a deep-rooted tenacity and fighting spirit in their hearts, and a belief they were willing to give their lives for.
Some qualities are rarer than strength, yet true power often encompasses these traits as well.
However, what astonished Darren and the others beyond belief was that Chris had completed the third goal at some unknown time… there was even a third enemy he acknowledged.
