Chapter 702 Sudden

The entire atmosphere in Ravenspire was hard to describe. It was filled with so many emotions that they all converged into something unexplainable.

The emotions were numerous; however, one emotion above all was too common to ignore: killing intent. The killing intent radiating out of Ravenspire, along with Sector 3 as a whole, was so intense that it was palpable.

The Stellaris were being hunted and killed on the streets.

An intense battle was raging just below the hill where the Ravenstein estate lay.

Inside the estate, multiple people were battling for their lives. Contrary to what many believed, the Obsidian Order branch heads hadn't come to the estate alone. They had brought with them their elites from within the Order.

Many of the guards and workers of the estate found themselves battling for their lives.

The elemental sanctums that had descended ended up joining the battle themselves. They were each built like fortresses, equipped with multiple artillery and offensive capabilities. Multiple elemental attacks were fired, each one decimating the Stellaris armada and army.

There were so many things happening all at once, and the situation seemed as though it couldn't get any worse than this; however, many could only wish that were true.

In war, especially one between two tier-one families, the paragons would seldom participate, and even when they did, it was during the ending or decisive moments. The main force had always been the grandmaster ranks.

And if there was one thing grandmasters of the human domain were known for, it was their domains. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

No one knew who started it. However, the inevitable happened, and just as the battle reached a crescendo, the air around the area suddenly intensified manifold, the mana in the air growing to unimaginable heights.

Multiple beams of energy, each with different hues, erupted from the ground, splitting the sky from multiple points.

The auras of grandmasters instantly engulfed the entire area as each individual, either Ravensteins or Stellaris below the grandmaster rank, found themselves in the middle of a situation they had no power over.

Domains clashed for dominance, and many others trapped in the middle could only hope and pray that their allies would be the ones to win the battle.

If she and others were feeling this way, she couldn't imagine how Helios, who was battling him, would be feeling.

Regardless, the result seemed obvious. However, Lyanna hadn't expected what happened next.

Multiple energy beams suddenly erupted from the earth, cutting through the sky and parting the clouds.

The gazes of every high-ranking Ravenstein—from Avalon and the other stars to the sanctum masters—shot toward its direction, their expressions narrowing.

That direction... it had come from the estate!

Avalon didn't bother to think; his family was in that estate. He let go of every reservation, turning away from Helios, and just as he was about to move toward the estate, Helios erupted with a huge burst of power, and immediately a scorching beam shot out from him toward Avalon.

"I don't have time for this!"

Avalon turned to face the attack before throwing out his own. It wasn't an attack he could just brush off.

Helios appeared bloodied and battered; in fact, his energy appeared faint, his glow slightly dimmed.

His hand clutched a round ball glowing brightly as he kept on throwing out attack upon attack, his face filled with complete fury.

'An artifact?' Avalon's gaze was fixed directly on the round ball. It emanated an intense amount of energy that was hard to ignore.

It was as though the Stellaris had been waiting for this chance, as during that brief moment of distraction, each of the elders brought out the same identical artifact, erupting with power before launching attack upon attack against the Ravensteins.

Despite wanting to immediately rush toward the estate, they were each momentarily held back.

The sudden burst of power had been surprising; however, it wasn't something they couldn't handle.

The situation still seemed favorable for them in this scene, but the same couldn't completely be said for within the estate.
