93 Silver Grand Swordmaster Part 2 (1/2)

Saleen was dazzled by the scene unfolding before him. The earth totem had been set in place beforehand, and if any danger appeared, it would be activated. Also, the two fire serpents had not been cast by Faerun. They had come from magic scrolls.

Because a single attack was extremely powerful and controlling the fire serpents was Grade 8 magic, Faerun could not possibly have cast the two fire serpents on his own.

After a loud boom, the thorned dragon fell onto the viscountess’ tent and rolled about in pain. The other fire serpent had slithered into the dragon’s anus. Because the snakes had been formed by magic, they could not be extinguished. Despite the high magic resistance that the dragon possessed, its intestines could not withstand the burning pain.

Actually, Faerun had not needed to use the magic scrolls to slay the dragon. However, the magic scrolls had been the best solution for killing the determined beast quickly. Faerun still needed to face a silver grand swordmaster, so he had used the magic scrolls in order to conserve his precious magic chords.

A Grade 7 sorcerer and a silver grand swordmaster had a difference of one grade between them. A black metal grand swordmaster was two grades below. Even though there were five of them, the intruder might not be defeated. So, Faerun was naturally very cautious. He had used two Grade 8 magic scrolls, which cost tens of thousands of gold coins, just to conserve a little combat power.

There was no one in the tent. Viscountess Lex had disappeared. The areas of the thorned dragon’s body which had come into contact with the fire serpents started to char and crack. The internal and external injuries acted together, causing the dragon to roar wildly. The thorned dragon spit purple flames and rolled a few times before its actions ceased for good. The hard scales on its surface also cracked into more than ten pieces each, exposing the burned meat beneath.

The battle had gone on for over ten seconds, and hundreds of soldiers had already put on their armor and mounted their war horses. They surrounded the intruder from afar, waiting to inflict the final blow onto him. These soldiers were only swordsmen or swordmasters, but they still formed a decisive power. As soon as the intruder was injured, they would charge forward and swarm him.

The intruder clad in heavy armor secretly regretted his decision. He had trusted the intelligence reports blindly, but it turned out that the viscountess had a sorcerer with her! Even though the sorcerer was only Grade 7, the intruder’s sword aura would be drained as long as the sorcerer possessed a sufficient number of magic scrolls. Then, the four black metal grand swordmasters would deliver the killing blow to him, and the soldiers would not even need to help.

Peng!

One of the black metal grand swordmasters was struck by the meteor hammer and blown away. The sword auras from both parties had clashed, and the meteor hammer had given off a purple glow, crushing the Qin eight-sided sword into small pieces. The intruder had raised his power to the maximum level and he had finally managed to break through his enemy’s trap. The meteor hammer then followed up by breaking another black metal grand swordmaster’s sword.

The other two black metal grand swordmasters managed to pierce the intruder’s waist, but they only drove the swords half an inch into him before they could go no further. The intruder clad in heavy armor took a big step forward and his body began to tremble violently. This action caused the sword auras from both of the swords to be dispersed, and the two swords broke.

The thorned dragon had died, and the target was missing as well. The intruder did not want to continue the fight, and began to have thoughts of retreating.

Woo…woo…

The swinging of the meteor hammer caused sounds in the wind. The intruder rushed with immense speed towards the corpse of the thorned dragon. His intention was to go through the tent. He did not want to turn back even though he was retreating.

Facing the intruder were the bunch of cavalry soldiers that Tenesee led. The war horse Tenesee sat on was so frightened by the aura of the silver grand swordmaster that it could no longer withstand it. Tenesee tried to control the horse forcefully, but the war horse was anxiously trying to back away.

The other four black metal grand swordmasters whose weapons had been destroyed then quickly took the swords from the surrounding soldiers and gave chase.

The intruder clad in heavy armor suppressed his anger and did not turn back, but continued charging forward even more quickly. If the intruder had only been fighting against the four men, he certainly would not have escaped in shame. But the sorcerer was not around, and this made him uninterested in the fight. It seemed like the viscountess was not ruthless enough. If she had ordered the soldiers to surround and attack him, he would have ultimately been killed even though hundreds of soldiers would have died too.

The intruder saw that the soldiers had made way for him to pass, and he waved his meteor hammer in the air to send the tent in front of him flying. The soldiers immediately raised their metal weapons to block the attack.

The lone intruder with the hammer was far more powerful than the thorned dragon.

”Please stay,” Faerun’s voice rang across the camp. At the same time, numerous teeth made out of stone emerged from the ground as though a gaping maw, and bit at the intruder clad in heavy armor.

The intruder was daring enough to clash head on with a sword, but he did not dare clash head on with Grade 7 magic. There was a boom from the meteor hammer and several stone teeth were shattered. The intruder had jumped over two meters into the air to dodge any attacks coming from behind. The height of his jump was coincidentally the maximum height the stone teeth could rise. In the same instant, the meteor hammer again gave off its purple glow. The intruder’s sword aura had been fully unleashed as he defended against the mage’s attacks.

The stone teeth rose up two meters and stopped their assault. The intruder clad in heavy armor stepped on one stone tooth with a great amount of effort and he sped up and leapt out of the camp with his meteor hammer. A silver grand swordmaster could use their sword aura to fly in the air. However, this intruder’s armor was too cumbersome and heavy. Besides, there was the threat of the sorcerer, so the intruder did not want to take flight.

That single leap covered a distance of over ten meters. As the intruder landed on the ground, his surroundings darkened all of a sudden. He was shocked that he had been covered in darkness. This was extremely rare Dark Magic, and it was a Grade 8 spell. The intruder did not dare hide anymore. The purple colored sword aura shone through his armor and exploded like a sun. In an instant, the darkness had been extinguished by the purple light.

That magic had definitely not come from a magic scroll since it was so accurate. The mage must have run out of magic chords!

The intruder dispelled the darkness around him. Before he could catch his breath, a leaf fell just in front of him. This caused the intruder to be a little confused, and he fell into a trance. He felt some pain in his ankle as a shadow took off behind him.

The intruder fell to the ground as he lost control of one of his feet. He could no longer support the weight of his heavy armor and his head leaned towards one side. In that instant, the tendon of his heel had been cut. As the intruder put one hand on the ground to support himself, he turned around and saw a shapely middle-aged man holding a dagger and laughing at him mockingly.
