Chapter 292: 289. An ambush



Quan didn't have any reason to go easy on Dexter. His pride had once been hurt by this vampire, and now they could finally fight at full strength.

"I didn't know you had eyes for her. I heard Obsidian chased you out of camp, and she left to be with you. That's crazy..." Quan nodded as he waved the sword around.

Dexter could hear a low hum from the sword as it waved through the air, and he closed his eyes.

Quan suddenly flew towards him at great speed, and Dexter flapped his wings, shooting towards Quan.

The two of them appeared close to each other in the next moment and began to fight.

Despite Dexter being at a disadvantage with his long spear, he still went close to Quan. They clashed weapons in midair, and they were equally fast.

The people below could see ripples in the air as the two individuals clashed.

"Amazing! I can barely see them," Anatoly said in amazement as he watched the fight from the ground.

Quan was already getting fired up, dodging all the stabs coming from Dexter. He opened his mouth, and a stream of flames burst out from it.

Explosions were going off, and Rameses decided to come out to see what was happening.

He was surprised to see that indeed people were fighting in the air.

"Hah. The people that are coming seem to be surpassing our expectations. These people are dragons, and also humans," he said, shaking his head.

Dian came from behind him, and he looked at the man.

"Did they tell you what we're facing exactly?" Dian asked, glancing over at Rameses, who shook his head.

"No. What about the Dragon King?" Rameses asked, and Dian only shook his head.

Dexter smiled as he went toe-to-toe with Quan without receiving any hits.

Quan suddenly smiled and finally caught Dexter off guard. He struck his blade from above, causing Dexter to block with his spear, and he was kicked back.

With a thrust of his sword, he released a huge blast of flames towards Dexter.

"Alright, alright, enough playing," Dexter mumbled before he shot towards Quan with even more speed than before.

The black werewolves behind her began to transform as they approached the rock too. All the water solidified into ice shards, shooting down towards the werewolves.

Something like this wasn't enough to stop them, as they all had superior agility and could see better at night.

The rock finally changed into a large wooden door, and Carina came out with a bunch of witches. She looked shocked to see the werewolves approaching ferociously.

"Stop them," she mumbled, and a few women stood in front of her, singing loudly as they pointed their hands forward.

Karim couldn't help but smile as he saw this, and then other witches came forward, commanding the winds to push back the wolves.

"Mistress, the hymns aren't working," one of the women said to her, and she was shocked to hear this.

'They must have noticed that their songs don't affect us. I knew they would use it. Good thing we went to get a bunch of defenses in Heaven's Tower,' Karim thought, transforming into a large brown wolf and leaping over the battlefield.

Tracy joined in. She looked at the necklace on the witch's neck and frowned as she hopped towards the witches.

She was surprised to see the werewolves pushing away the witches, scratching and even killing them.

Carina looked at the battlefield with a frown and screamed loudly.

The scream echoed through the battlefield, causing the werewolves' vision to distort, and they all looked towards her.

They were getting pushed back by another force.

With a wave of her hand, the earth began to collapse inwardly. Tracy managed to get her footing back quickly and noticed a man in black, who had a scarf around his lower face, knocking out the witches behind Carina.

She leapt over the debris, avoiding the collapsing ground, and began to transform on her own.

Her eyes glowed a bright golden color, and her claws began to extend. She suddenly saw the world with enhanced clarity and went straight for the witch.

Carina was distracted with holding the wolves back and didn't notice the man behind her, who had already gotten close.

She managed to react in time and stop him from coming closer, using a pulse wave to push him back.

He managed to grab the necklace before it happened and began to run away with the moonstone.
