Chapter 1208 The End Of The World [Part 4]
From within the chaotic battlefield, two Dwarves would appear from time to time, unleashing sneak attacks that aimed at the vital points of their targets.
Sometimes they succeeded, sometimes they didn't. But whenever one of them failed, the other would come to the other's rescue without hesitation.
They were none other than Sid and Scarlet who had also become High-Rankers. Currently, they were doing their best to eliminate the Empyrean-Ranked Monsters, who were only a rank below the Calamity Rank.
Both of them knew their limitations, so they didn't target the ones who had a higher Rank than theirs.
Besides, the Alliance had Saints and other Calamity-Ranked Monsters who would deal with these powerhouses themselves.
Both Assassins had taken their Dhamphir and Cambion Forms, unleashing their full might on the battlefield.
Fighting alongside them was none other than the Draconian Kobold, Cadmus, who was now an Empyrean-Ranked Monster.
In the past, he was someone whom Lux couldn't even hope to deal with due to the difference in Ranks.
But now, the Half-Elf had far surpassed him, leaving him in the dust.
Cadmus would be lying if he said that this fact didn't make him feel bitter inside. However, after the Kobold Clan had joined Heaven's Gate, they entered a golden age and were able to do whatever they wanted while they dug out an underground nest in the Floating Island of Edea.
With the three of them working side by side, the Vanguard of the Alliance was able to breathe a little easier because the trio always targeted the most troublesome Monsters on the battlefield.
"Cadmus, dodge!" Sid shouted, and the Draconian Kobold obeyed without a second thought.
As soon as Cadmus crouched down, Sid flew past his body and pierced the chest of the Monster that was planning to sneak attack the Draconian Kobold from behind.
After this exchange, the two returned to fighting their opponents.
They didn't have to thank each other. If they were to do it, they would have already said it more than a hundred times already.
Sensing its Master's mood, the Wyvern flew back towards their Guild Headquarters, while Cadmus, Sid, and Scarlet took over the place he was protecting.
Sid, whose eyes were very sharp, noticed a group of people near their Guild Headquarters.
Several dead bodies were laid side by side, with some of them not having complete body parts.
He had seen several acquaintances, including Cethus, whom he had met in the past.
Sid wasn't that close with the Dragon Born, but he knew that he and Gerhart were rivals.
He now understood why the green-haired Half-Elf seemed hellbent on killing as many Abyssal Monsters as he could. It was so that they would accompany Cethus to the afterlife.
The Void Battlefield had its own rules, so those who died in this place would not have their souls sent to the Abyss.
But Sid didn't have the time to dwell on this matter because the intensity of the Monster attacks that were heading in their direction was steadily increasing.
Suddenly, several Empyrean-Ranked Winged Serpents that were over a kilometer long unleashed their Breath Attacks at the Floating Island of Edea.
The Magic Cannons mounted on the Floating Island were the most destructive weapons on the battlefield, second only to Poseidon's Main Cannons.
Because of this, the Abyssal Monsters were targeting it fiercely, but there were several Undead Creatures that were getting in their way.
The Nightgaunt, Shax, and the Dragon Knight, Bedivere, blocked two of these Breath Attacks, leaving the other attacks to their companions.
Cadmus dealt with one of the breath attacks with his own, nullifying them completely.
Lazarus unleashed a barrage of spells stopping the other attacks from landing on their Guild Headquarters, making everyone breathe a sigh of relief.
After what had happened to Cethus, a few of Lux's Named Creatures and Covenant Members, prioritized defending their base to help decrease the number of casualties of the main Guild Members.
