Chapter 772: The Move Towards Death

Translator: Lonelytree

A familiar face appeared on another spell formation.

“Edmond?”

The trio from the Astral World was very surprised.

“I came to help.”

Edmond smiled.

Link frowned.

” Then what about Floating City and Watcher Highland?

“Roderick and Chen are too busy, right? Did you invite Yourou out?”

Edmond shook his head.

“She wanted to come out for some fresh air.”

He said casually,

“I saw that she was in a good mental state recently, so I agreed.”

As soon as he said that.

The other three immediately became nervous.

They all looked at Edmond with strange gazes, but there was no time for the three of them to comment on Edmond’s actions.

That was because the meteor shower from the astral plane had already arrived in front of them!

Inside Cross City.

The four mages who had just met did not have time to exchange pleasantries. They immediately brought Soria’s order to the Earth Society’s Druids.

They passed the news of the meteor shower to Delong.

The latter immediately found the leader of the radical faction, Mirsin.

After a short conversation.

Mirsin looked troubled.

” Now, the two Great Druids have to guard the Earth Spirit in the Holy Church. They gave us orders that we can’t leave, and they don’t allow us to disturb them.”

Everyone frowned.

Delong wanted to say something.

But Mirsin spoke first,

” That’s why we have to make this decision. If all the Tiger-level Druids agree, we can activate the Doomsday Shield.”

Then, he looked at Delong and said,

“I can agree on behalf of my people. What about you?”

Delong reacted quickly.

“Of course, I agree!”

Then, he looked at Mirsin in surprise.

“I thought that you would do your best to oppose it…

“After all, activating the Doomsday Shield will almost drain the power of the Earth Spirit and the Spirit Pool. At that time, the Bladefire Barrier in the Holy Oak District will be useless.”

Mirsin said calmly,

” It doesn’t matter. The moment you brought that child in, our defences were already breached. We can only hope that the defences around the Sanctuary are strong enough.”

Delong was slightly startled.

“What are you talking about?”

Mirsin blinked.

“The child you saved has disappeared. The tree cage can’t trap him. I guess he’s either from the three evil sects or an incarnation of a god in the Heavenly Palace.

“So, our barrier has been infiltrated.”

Delong stood there in a daze. He scratched his head and looked apologetic.

“I’m sorry, I thought…”

Mirsin interrupted him rudely.

“Don’t be a sissy. Now is not the time to talk about this.

” I’ll bring some people to activate the Doomsday Shield. You organize people to send as many civilians as possible to the underground cave in the north. I’m worried that the shield won’t be able to completely stop the meteor shower.

“If you want to take responsibility for your mistakes, then use your life to protect the spirit of the earth!”

Delong said with a serious face,

“I’ve always done this.”

Mirsin pursed his lips and looked at Delong deeply, then quickly turned around and left.

The Druids quickly got busy.

Three minutes later.

Bright light burst out from all the purification sanctuaries in Cross City.

Beams of light shot into the sky.

Under the astonished gazes of countless people, these pillars of light propped up the sky and formed a huge protective barrier around Cross City.

Unsettling rumours began to spread.

The Druids also began to organize the residents to take refuge in the northern caves.

The survivors in the city didn’t have time to grieve for the dead and rushed to the next panic.

A feeling of despair quickly spread.

In mid-air.

Matthew sat on the magic carpet and slowly dispatched the undead army to the vicinity of the northern cave.

Under the arrangement and cooperation of the Druids.

The undead army did not cause a large-scale panic.

Led by Peggy, they surrounded the cave and were responsible for the civilians’ safety.

Matthew was with the other mages.

Compared to the busy druids.

At this moment, the mages seemed to have a rare moment of free time.

After all, a great battle was imminent.

Hood and Hibbert didn’t dare to use a large amount of magic power to teleport the civilians.

They were well aware of the huge challenge they were about to face.

“Can this protective shield really hold on?”

Hood sat on Matthew’s magic carpet and muttered,

” According to my experience, any spell with such a large defensive area is usually very ineffective.

“This thing is like a man. You can only choose size or hardness.”

Hibbert looked at him blankly.

“What is the meaning of this?”

Alan couldn’t help but roll her eyes.

Matthew changed the topic.

“How did you kill the Withering King?”

Hibbert said,

“I guess it was pure luck.

” When I was analyzing his ability with a spell marker, I accidentally discovered that the Withering King has an ability called Withering Ghost.

” The speciality of this ability is that the closer you are to the end of your life, the more powerful you will be.

” So, I gave it a try and stole a few seconds of the Withering King’s lifespan with a spell. I didn’t expect him to die!

“Oh, in a sense, he can be considered to have died of old age.”

Hearing Hibbert’s calm description.

Matthew and Alan were dumbfounded.
