Chapter 384 - Advent of the Bloody Butcher (2/2)

Link held the Dragon King’s Wrath in his right hand and the Burning Wrath of Heaven’s wand in his left. He pointed the wand forward, casting a Spatial Shackles spell.

Whoosh. The Spatial Shackles appeared, and the soldier’s movements immediately stopped. Link took the chance to attack him, slapping hard onto his neck.

Smack. The hit knocked the soldier out. His eyes turned white, and he collapsed to the ground.

Seeing another soldier rushing towards the house, Link shouted, “Come with me!”

He turned and rushed towards Milda’s changing room. “Milda, we have no time, we’re leaving now!”

As he said this, he pushed open the door to the room.

“Ahh!” Milda was halfway through changing, and her top half was still exposed. As Link charged in, Milda yelped and turned around. Link saw a snow-white body, with skin as fair as jade. There were two shapely round mounds on her chest, with a cherry red tip at each end. Link was momentarily stunned.

Riel was behind Link and couldn’t see what was going on. He immediately asked, “What! What’s going on? Did they charge into this room too?”

Link did not have time to explain. He took out a mantle and draped it over the blushing Princess Milda, covering her exposed chest and body.

Just then, a shout of rage came from the door as a soldier charged in. “Who! Who dares to defy the Lord’s order?!”

Whoosh. Link cast a dimensional jump without the slightest hesitation, and the group vanished, reappearing in a small street half a mile away.

The instant he left, Rockman appeared from the pagoda. He was fuming. “Who’s kicking up a ruckus in my yard!”

He saw a soldier rushing into the slave girls yard and was about to begin killing people. Immediately, he flew into a rage and, not caring for his own injuries, grasped at the soldier from 30 meters away. An invisible force appeared and grabbed onto the soldier’s clothing, throwing him out.

Slam. The soldier smashed into a stone wall and crumpled to the ground, unconscious.

Magician Rockman’s status was high, and he was also very powerful. No one could simply kill him that easily. One leader ran up to him and explained, his face solemn. “Sir, the Laguan’s poisoned Lady Anlis. The Lord has ordered for all the Laguan’s to be killed. We are carrying out his orders.”

“What! Anlis was killed? F*ck, this is a disaster!”

Rockman was very clear about the implications of this. Balha was a crazy dog. Anlis was the only one who could control him. Now, Anlis was dead, and she was also carrying another life inside of her. That was two people killed! Anyone would be enraged at something like this. One can only imagine how Balha would react.

At this moment, Balha must have lost all sense of reasoning. Even Rockman didn’t dare to go forth to stop him.

Rockman sighed. “You may kill all the Laguans you see. However, there is a black haired girl that isn’t a Laguan. She’s a gift for Great Lord Bal. Leave her alive.”

Rockman had already compromised. The leader didn’t dare to ask for anything more. He waved the rest of the soldiers forward. “Do as Sir Rockman ordered,” he instructed.

…

Outside the city

Link and the others reappeared in a street outside the city. Before they even had the chance to regain their footing, they heard the sound of horses coming from behind. Not far, a troop of soldiers was riding down a large street from the city gates. Judging from their direction, they were probably going to attack the Laguan village.

There were 30 soldiers, all of whom were over Level-8. The one at the front who was most likely the captain was Level-10. At this moment, they laid eyes upon Link’s party, specifically Princess Milda.

There were many small differences between humans and elves. This wasn’t limited to their ears, but also their figures, skin tone, hair color. To Araguans, this difference was very obvious.

Two seconds after seeing them, the captain shouted. “Stop right there! Hand over the Laguan slave.”

Only an idiot would stand still at this moment.

Link immediately cast a dimensional jump.

“Dare to leave?” The captain bellowed. He immediately drew out his bow and fired an arrow at Link.

The captain was a Level-10 Warrior. Even if he casually fired an arrow, the arrow’s power would still be immense. The arrow flew forward, leaving a streak of light behind it. Around the arrow’s body, the air rippled. In fact, there were even sound vibrations, like that of thunder.

It wasn’t just him. The other 30 soldiers also released their arrows, covering the sky in a rain of arrows. The arrows were fast and numerous. Against an attack like this, Link didn’t dare to multi-task. That was too dangerous.

He immediately canceled the dimensional jump and instructed Nana. “Bring them away, I’ll stop these guys!”

While he said this, Link focused his power and consumed 1000 Dragon Power points to cast a Spatial Distortion spell. The space distorted and knocked the rain of arrows aside. Amidst the distortion field, all the arrows experienced a strong attraction force. After leaving the field, the arrows changed direction, landing around Link but never getting within three meters of him.

“Hmph! You still dare to oppose us? Kill him!”

The captain released his Battle Aura. He jumped from the horse’s back, releasing more and more Battle Aura as he sailed through the air. He took three mid-air steps, instantaneously crossing a span of 150 feet, appearing 30 feet in front of Link. From that distance, he slashed down with his sword.
