Chapter 451: Chapter 427: A Sudden Fierce Attack!

The Rhea People had come.

It was undeniable; with foreign Monarch powerful experts suddenly crossing into the country unannounced, Rhea was surely on high alert, ready to welcome war at any moment.

The Monarch strong experts of the current province would also probe the situation at the first opportunity.

He knew the details well because in Cyart, the same defensive procedures were in place…

Darren silently sensed the enemies several kilometers away, discovering that four Extraordinary Exponents of Monarch Level were rapidly approaching by flight.

“They came so quickly, they definitely aren’t moving with an army, so there’s no strong endurance capability, good news,” he mused.

With military support, even a low-level Monarch Extraordinary Exponent could hold up against a mid-level Monarch. Coupled with the city’s barrier, it was even possible to defeat a mid-level Monarch. Therefore, both the Monarchs and the city barriers remained crucial.

Chris suddenly said with certainty, “There’s only one at the mid-level Monarch tier.”

Darren was briefly startled, knowing that Chris’s Perception Ability was stronger than his own, so his words were likely accurate.

So, there’s only one at the mid-level Monarch tier, and then there are three low-level Monarch Extraordinary Exponents, correct?

If that was the case, even in a two-on-four situation, his side wasn’t at a significant disadvantage.

“I still need a few hours before I can perform the ‘Evil Demon Transformation’ again, right now I can only transform into a dragon in the simplest sense, and I’m still quite weak…”

He took a deep breath; if he hadn’t used up the “Evil Demon Transformation” just now, he just needed to stack the Double Transformation to momentarily gain the strength of a mid-level Monarch.

“Too bad I can only use one kind of transformation now.”

However, it didn’t matter, Darren was very aware that he still had two other potent rune powers at his disposal.

“Emerald Ring” and “Soul Dice”, with their strength factored in, Darren didn’t feel he would be any weaker than a mid-level Monarch Transcendent.

“Uncle Chris, let’s hide for now and use this time to recover.”

Having said that, Darren harshly picked up the unconscious Yeager, unceremoniously slung him over his shoulder, and then plucked a portion of the Pitch Black Object’s corner, fleeing southwards with Chris.

The two didn’t fly for long before sensing that the four pursuers were drawing ever closer, and the enemies, coming from different directions, had already merged into a single group.

After contemplating for a moment and noticing the sky gradually darkening, Darren knew Chris would be stronger in the night, so he immediately said, “Let’s split up and hide!”

No sooner had he finished speaking than Chris moved in another direction, not even bothering to respond.

Meanwhile, Darren continued southwards, dragging the unconscious Yeager with him, though they were still a long way from escaping the barrier’s range.

“…”

After a long time, Darren sensed once more, realizing the four enemies had split into two groups: one pursuing Chris and the other two chasing after him.

“Good.”

Darren continued flying until he saw a large mountain ahead, and in the mountain, there was a black cave that led directly underground, where he promptly hid.

Soon, he detected that the two behind him had caught up.

“Without the National Defense Barrier’s lock-on, you probably would have lost me already, huh?”

After reaching the 5th Rank, Consecution Extraordinary Exponents developed a Perception Ability much stronger than that of the Bloodline Knights, which was a substantial advantage for Darren and his companions.

Darren was acutely aware that the National Defense Barrier’s lock was only able to determine a rough location, not a precise position, unlike the Perception Ability he possessed.

So, those two could only sense that he was within this large mountain, but they couldn’t pinpoint his exact whereabouts.

“The two chasing me are only low-level Monarch Extraordinary Exponents; even if they specialize in wide-range attacks, they can’t just blow up the mountain.”

Darren calmly hid in the mountain, set down the corner of the Pitch Black Object, and looked at Yeager, not far from him.

At this moment, Yeager was still unconscious, seemingly not only physically damaged, but also soul-deep, by the power of the Abyssal Flame Demon.

“But I alone am enough; Yeager, I didn’t expect your role to be holding me back,” he shook his head.
