Chapter 417 (2/2)
An assault like this was nearly more than Cloudhawk could handle Hoas Autumn supposed to protect herself?
At the saan to ht, lashed out in unison They ca speed on the heels of the arrows to create an impermeable wall of force
It was flawless Cloudhawk had nowhere to go
His plan had been to kite the arrows; keep just out of range and lead theth It seemed that wasn't possible any the flow of energy stable Cloudhawk once again found hiht
He felt like a leaf caught in a hurricane, and the buffeting winds threatened to tear him apart at any moment
Meanwhile the elder bore witness to their conflict It was a shock to see first-hand what these men were capable of There was also a zealous blaze in his eyes He'd heard of demonhunters, but for the first time he saw that the stories didn't do them justice
Woodland Vale had been closed off fro Were they too far behind everyone else?
Thankfully, the dragons the Shepherd created – in all her wisdom – were resistant to the power of demonhunters There were more than a thousand of them now and they would keep the Vale safe Not even the elysians could fight their way passed them
A little h the seal Shepherd's greatest treasure was nearly in his grasp
Real poould coh power to lead his people froe to freedom, and to turn their warriors into a force that would rival Elysian demonhunters
The young man Autumn had chosen as her champion was clearly no match for Adder His death was just a matter of time!
Autumn sao of the Lifedrinker Arrows fix on her position and close in Winds fro, while shards of debris peppered her lily-white skin It felt like she was staring into the face of death, its cold hands on her tre her feel small and helpless
She'd tried so hard to save the Vale She had desperately tried to be a good leader Why, then, was she always a burden?
Cloudhawk's situation was dire, and he was barely holding on He wasn't going to save her The gleaht of the arrows filled her vision when suddenly Autumn's heart filled with denial
Tre hands pulled Shepherd's flute from her belt
In a final act of protest, she put the flute to her lips and released a single clear note The note shuddered through the area,seeped into the hearts of everyone within earshot, capturing they that spread out in all directions
The arrows shuddered
Then stopped
They actually stopped
Adder was staggered by the psychic blast, and a look of shock spread across his face In an unbelievable turn of circumstances, his connection with the Lifedrinker Arroas severed
As such, the impenetrable wall that had sealed Cloudhawk in was riddled with flaws Dodging Adder's crossbloades, he had just enough time to teleport several dozen meters from harm's way
He looked up The Lifedrinker Arroere suspended in
Somehow, Autumn had exerted influence over them with her flute Even she didn't know the artifact could do that Since getting the flute she had only know it to be capable of controlling mindless animals with its psychic pulse
Who would have believed this? The waves were interrupting the connection between the arrows and their rade relic itself, the flute was proving more than merely a way to bend animals to one's will
Cloudhawk shouted at her “Break the mirror!”
She suddenly understood what he was saying Autumn blew into the flute onceto her will Adder tried to stop the their destination, but Cloudhawk blocked his path
The rily
As the crossblades seethed with maximum power Cloudhawk felt the heat wash over him Closer and closer they caet first As the mirror shattered, so did the crossblades, mere inches froht, and then vanished; the swords, the
The e swelled up inside Adder
In an immediate reaction he thrust his fist toward Autu It struck, burning a path through the center of her chest She was flung through the air like a discarded doll and struck the stone floor hard a dozen meters away Her body sported a hole the size of a fist, with the edges and viscera inside burned black from the heat of the ray
“You bastard!”
Cloudhawk roared in fury and flung hiht
That dull glint passed through Adder's left wrist like it was ht red blood sprayed out in a gruesome fan Cloudhawk followed up with a vicious kick to the center of Adder's chest, which struck hard enough to cave it in His ribs were crushed and shards of bone dug into his lungs More blood started to pour from his nose and round
The elder's eyes ith terror Desperately flashed in his gaze as he looked at the altar and the crystal Whatever was inside could almost be seen A little more Just a little more!
