Chapter 528 - Again, Two Birds One Stone (1/2)

With Heinz unable to send out help, Jiang Fei was alone with Ariel and Isabella to save the Master of the Seven Seas, King Elric.

All three of them were sitting on the Skygliding Dragon as they made their way toward the Eastern seas where King Elric was supposedly imprisoned. The Skygliding Dragon was large enough to fit one more passenger without a problem.

"Thank you very much for supporting me, big sis Bella," said Ariel as she hugged Isabella.

"Don't worry about it. All of your problems are mine as well," said Isabella. The two girls were exceptionally close to each other. To this day, Jiang Fei had no idea what sort of magic move Isabella had done to Ariel. The Isabella that Jiang Fei knew would not get along with a love rival, much less treating her like her own sister!

Along the route, Jiang Fei had asked for details of the situation and as Ariel explained, Jiang Fei could not help but sigh heavily.

King Elric was not in a good situation. The Naga had planned for the kidnapping for a long time. They had first dealt with the Merfolk army, leaving King Elric and a few personal guards alive. They then brought in their own army to surround King Elric and erected the barrier to prevent him from escaping. Ariel was only able to escape due to the Love Contract skill.

"You best live up to your title as the Master of the Seven Seas! Don't die before I save you! Or you will be answering to me in the afterlife!" muttered Jiang Fei to himself. He could not fathom the thought of losing two billion experience points.

"Thank god that the quest requires me to attack directly. I only need to break the barrier and the King could teleport away!" said Jiang Fei as he strategized the rescue mission. At his current strength, Jiang Fei would likely be unable to complete the harder tier of the Hidden Quest. The only thing that Jiang Fei had in mind was to safely extract King Elric from his shackles and finish the quest at the bare minimum requirement.

As long as the barrier was broken, the Overlord tier King Elric should be able to instantly teleport himself away to safety. After that, he should be safe. Jiang Fei could do nothing to save the other personal guards.

After he had finalized his plans, Jiang Fei proceeded calmly toward the island where King Elric was held captive.

"What sort of f*ckery is this?" shouted Jiang Fei as he saw the true situation with his own eyes.

Ariel had failed to mention that his father was held captive and was surrounded by more than a few hundreds of thousands of Naga Brutes and Sirens! That was not all as the deeper the army was into the island, the stronger they were. Most of the soldiers that were on the front were Level 70 Elite tier. After that, Advanced Elite Level 75, and so on…

There were only two things that the soldiers were guarding tightly. One, King Elric that was being held captive at the center of the island, and two, the barrier magic circle. Alas, even if Jiang Fei dared to dive from the sky, he predicted that he would be dead before he could even destroy the barrier's magic.

"Bella, what say you?" asked Jiang Fei. Perhaps Isabella could use her Forbidden Spell to do something about the soldiers.

Jiang Fei was out of options. Even though he had a skill that was similar to a Forbidden Spell, he had to be constantly channeling the magic spell. Moreover, it was a skill that activated with him being at the center of it. That meant, if the skill failed to kill the soldiers within its active period, more would come pouring in after the other and kill Jiang Fei before he could do anything.

"I'm sorry. There are too many of them. I can't possibly eliminate them all…" said Isabella as she shook her head. Her Dragon form was strong but channeling the Forbidden Spell required time. Before the spell could be unleashed, the soldiers and the other higher tier bosses on the island would definitely do something to prevent Isabella from casting the spell.
