Chapter 429 Wrong Choice?

Chapter 429 Wrong Choice?

Alex faced some guards, but he made short work of them, and in less than two minutes, he was inside the treasury.

Alex knew that time was of the essence, so he didn't even consider using his eyes or the Red gem to check hundreds of individual items, knowing there would be a few measures in place to keep the core hidden.

Alex spent a million on the highest grade of 'information extractor' service to eliminate the possibility of failure, and in less than two minutes, he located the core.

However, the troubles did not end there because the core was not in a condition to be used by anyone but a single man in the entire city, and currently, he was busy defending the city from a monster who was killing humans and beasts alike and raising them as his undead puppets.

'You must be kidding me,' Alex thought as he looked at the description of the fist-size gray star in his hands.

-----------

Name: Astral Blessing

Equipment: Energy Core

Quality: Mythical

.

Description: Astral Blessing is an Elemental Core derived from a fragment of an Elemental Star's core. It possesses the unique ability to augment the abilities of light element users, serving as both a catalyst and power source.

Important Note:

Alex gazed at the changed battlefield that was in complete chaos p; the giant city wall that stood tall had fallen, and beasts and undead creatures alive were spilling inside by hundreds as defenders worked to maintain their line.

Daenal ghostly appearance had undergone a complete transformation, as his ash white skill covered in cracks was now just ash white, he was thin but not bony, his eyes were sunken and dark, but they had more life to them, and his wings had fell apart were growing back, as pitch dark features covered them.

It was evident that with every passing moment, Daenal body was getting accustomed to the energy of the crown, and with it, he was growing stronger, and everyone on the combat zone could sense it.

The Seraphian clan patriarch was clearly stronger, but he was not dominating the battle because Daenal had cracked free of the domain and did so multiple times, keeping their their battle open, and because of that, Galatan was not able to go all out.

The Elemental Ruler had the ability to use an open version of their domain, which was weaker, but maintaining it also cost them vastly more energy than the enclosed domain, so unless necessary, they never used it.

As seconds ticked by, Alex shifted his eyes back to the summoning domain, and seeing the darkness shrinking and gathering in the center, he appeared a few meters away from the dark cocoon, hoping that the summon would be strong.

'Yes, hell yes,' Alex shouted in his mind as he gazed at the stats of the figure before him that were shown as ??? and his spirit was non-existent, and they both meant he was strong, genuinely strong.

"While Ruler was smart enough to figure out where the nucleus was located and even found it, It appears that because of his trust in his strength and because of the circumstances, he failed to recognize how he could charge the light core and activate the weapon,"

"Ruler just required to take the nucleus to Seraphian clan's door, and he would be rushed to one of the Elders guarding the clan, and then he could share how the same array powering the city barrier could be used to power the core, and the rest will be taken care by the clan members," Zero said, as the screen shifted from the view of the large chamber filled with weaponry to building roof close to the city entrance.

"But As Ruler has decided to take the harder route, now he will need to show that he is competent in keeping Daenal from going on a killing spree for Galatan to leave the front line,"

"After Galatan departs to ready the weapon, Ruler will need to hold off Daenal for a span of four to six minutes before he can rest, and the city would be considered safe,"

"While accomplishing the task was going to be anything but easy, he had shown us so many surprises, and I don't doubt he will disappoint us at such a critical moment," Zero said, showing the large pool of darkness on the ground before shifting to a widespread view of the battlefield.
