Chapter 2096 Shield
“Let’s see how many attacks you can block,” Sleepless Duke shouted. The other Night Ghosts began to cackle, gathering up a force of ghost air.
Han Sen had raised a single shield against an entire army. Sleepless Duke thought he must have a death wish.
When the three defenders had been actively fighting, the Dukes and Marquises were unable to gather up power. There was too much danger that their attacks would hit other Night Ghosts, so they intentionally weakened their attacks.
But now, the three of them had made themselves into an incredibly tempting target. The Night Ghosts gathered up all the power they had, then focused on a single part of the shield. Not even strong creatures could withstand the strength of what was coming.
Sleepless Duke had a plan. She needed to take Han Sen and Lone Bamboo as hostages. If she did that, she’d have an even easier time getting through Sky Palace’s defenses.
Han Sen and Lone Bamboo were important to Sky Palace. They wouldn’t be sacrificed easily.
The roiling mass of ghost air covered the sky now, and it was trying to consume the blue light. It was like the world was about to be consumed.
Boom!
When the ghost air landed, the entire base was annihilated. The construct was practically vaporized.
A thousand Dukes and ten thousand Marquises were attacking simultaneously. The area was brought to ruin, and the power continued down into the ground, creating a substantial crater.
Under a scary power such as that, even a Duke would have been blown to bits.
When the dust settled, Sleepless Duke and the Night Ghosts could only stare. Kahn’s eyes were full of surprise.
A blue translucent shield sat on the ground, appearing unblemished. Han Sen and the other two stood inside, uninjured by the attack. It was hard to believe that such a frightening amount of power could descend upon that simple shield and leave it undamaged.
“Is that all the power the Night Ghosts have?” Han Sen asked casually.
“Let’s see how well you can block this,” Sleepless Duke screamed. The Night Ghosts gathered up another enormous mass of ghost air. They became angry ghosts that descended on the blue shield.
Countless ghost airs slammed repeatedly into the blue shield. Even the nearby mountains were shattered by these attacks.
But the blue shield did not even shudder or shake. Even the ghost airs that could destroy mountains were reduced to a firework-sparkle against it.
Sleepless Duke kept on screaming. Thousands of Night Ghosts kept attacking from all angles, but still, they could not undo the blue shield.
Han Sen floated in the shield, while Lone Bamboo had sat down for a bit of rest. The man was in the middle of healing himself.
Sleepless Duke’s face was white with fury, and she was unable to fathom what sort of treasure Han Sen had brought with him. It could block each and every attack that was thrown at it.
Han Sen’s treasure wouldn’t actually cost him his power, either. If it did, he would have reacted in some way when the Night Ghosts attacked him.
You guys can continue.” Han Sen looked entirely unconcerned. It was as if nothing was going on. Han Sen stood up and stretched, and then he began walking up into the air. It looked as if he was going to walk off the planet, right into space.
