Chapter 1867 Intimidation

Emery couldn't help but sigh. He found himself caught in a familiar and recurring situation, facing off against a group of angry dark elves. However, this time, the odds seemed even less favorable for his group. There were only a handful of humans with him, and the absence of an enforcer to back them up. He knew that the outcome of this confrontation could go either way, and it wasn't a situation he wanted to take lightly. The source of this content can be linked to n0velbin•

Turning to Jinkan, Emery sought her decision. "So, should we fight them?"

Jinkan, as always, remained composed and unflappable. She confidently responded to the Khan's threatening words, her tone unwavering. "Are you sure you have the numbers to fight us?" Her words hung in the air, carrying an underlying challenge.

Hearing Jinkan's response, both sides began to assess the situation carefully, taking stock of the elves who had already ventured into the sixth layer and those who had chosen to stay behind. It was a silent standoff, as they all realized that the odds had shifted dramatically. Within a matter of minutes, the chamber had significantly emptied out, with only a few dozen elves lingering nearby.

On the human side, significant changes had occurred. The Nephilim, along with Jinkan's step-brother Linhao, had chosen to depart, leaving behind only Olivier with their Arkalad faction and Shatter with his Cross faction. These two leaders had brought an additional 20 members to bolster their group. A few dozen other human magus from grade 3 and 4 factions remained in the vicinity, observing the unfolding situation with keen interest.

Meanwhile, on the dark elf side, the Nephilim bracelets worn by Emery's group had identified the dark elf Khan as Ba Taaar, the leader of an exemplary warrior clan with over 3000 dark elves under his command. Among the hundred dark elves who now stood alongside him, only half belonged to his actual clan. Emery surmised that the rest were likely from smaller clans, hoping for some form of recognition or rewards. D'Mal, the top-ranking dark elf, stood by Ba Taaar's side.

"Let's not waste any more time," Jinkan declared, her gaze shifting to Emery.

With his heightened understanding of the law of light and his increased soul force, Emery could sense that his spirit reading had expanded even further throughout the fifth layer. After a few moments of concentration, he opened a portal gate, allowing all 70 magus to enter. He then created two more portal gates, and within minutes, they had arrived at their intended destination.

The group emerged in the gate chamber leading to the plant vault. As they stepped into this verdant domain, the sounds of battle met their ears. The chamber was filled with the scent of earth and the frenetic energy of combat.

Before them stood a scene of turmoil. Five hundred celestial constructs, led by the imposing [Mage Lord], clashed with a coalition of seven hundred human and elven magus. The celestial army, seeking to protect their guardian and prevent the invaders from advancing deeper into the vault.

Upon their arrival, Jai Strider, along with the combined metal and plant group led by Talio Greenbloom, greeted them. "You came just in time!"

The plan they'd devised was deceptively simple. With only nine thousand golden medals available in total, the light vault had managed to attract a considerable number of twelve hundred magus. This meant that other vaults, like the plant vault, had to contend with fewer participants, which made their battles more challenging. Over the past two hours, they have sustained losses of more than a hundred magus in their struggle against the guardian.

By joining the fray in this vault, the newcomers would not only secure extra points for themselves but also provide much-needed reinforcements. The timing of their arrival couldn't have been better.

Jinkan wasted no time and rallied the group "Let's go and earn some extra points!"
