BXBX NOVEL Chapter 354 Attack Of The Mages (1)
Shin was too busy rushing through the route. If he had used his skill, he would end up crossing the kingdom within a minute. But he didn't, as the shadow wolves were also following him.
Previously, when Shin had used the All Seeing Eyes, he not only discovered the location of the spatial warp but also noticed the user.
He could see directly inside the spatial warp and the other side, noticing the people from Levonia.
That's why he directly blamed everything on Levos.
'Hmm...'
'I thought they would try to pull some trick.'
'But seems like it was an unnecessary concern.', Shin concluded as he almost passed through the eastern border, almost reaching the Northern side.
However, the problem had yet to start.
A second after concluding that, he felt a strong energy source approaching him.
He shouted, "Watch out!"
*Boom*
A large fireball had come blasting their way.
The blast caused by the fireball was so big and strong, that three of the shadow wolves almost instantly died.
About five to six of the wolves were severely injured and the rest barely managed to escape.
Shin was also injured because of the attack, with 1/3 of his HP being depleted.
For a few seconds, his ears were ringing. After shaking his head once or twice, he regained his sense of hearing.
He turned towards his right only to find the casualties. He then turned to his left and found that Deoras had protected a few of his men by casting a shadow barrier.
[Dead] x 3
As mentioned, 3 wolves were dead.
While Shin didn't exactly have any deep attachments with them, they were still part of his family.
He was enraged. His dust-covered face showed signs of rage.
He immediately turned towards the direction from which the fireball was launched â€" the walls.
He was initially angry, thinking about demolishing the person who fired the attack their way, however, when he finally looked at the walls, he had no choice but to change his mind.
Rather than asking his subordinates to attack, he gave out a cry to save themselves.
"Everyone, turn yourselves into shadows! Now!"
The desperate plea sent chills down everyone's spine.
Some had already turned themselves into shadows to dodge the precious attack but there were still many left who had yet to do that.
After hearing Shin's command, they immediately turned into shadows.
Other than Deoras and Shin, everyone hid in Shin's shadow. Of course, the dead bodies of the three wolves remained.
The reason why Shin asked them to turn into shadows was because he realized the gravity of the situation.
On the walls, over 200 mages stood with their staffs aimed at them.
While most of them were below level 40 there were some that were at level 40, 50 and even 60.
But the one that shocked Shin the most was the man who was Lv.85 Summoner.
Shin had no idea if he was a Summoner or actually a pure magician, but he couldn't feel the vast amount of mana from him.
This alone forced him to make the decision of asking his mates to hide.
"Deoras, what are you doing...?"
"Didn't I ask you to hide?", Shin asked.
"But Your Highness...", Deoras wanted to show how protective he could be, but, this was only making the situation worse.
Shin felt an intense amount of energy yet again, and this time, a gigantic fireball of almost the same size as the last time was fired yet again.
"You bastard!"
Shin jumped right in front of Deoras while calling him a bastard.
The attack was aimed at Deoras, wanting to kill any allies that Shin had.
Melos had found out that Deoras was quite weaker than Shin and hence summoned a fireball specifically for him.
*Ding*
[You have used the skill Transformation]
As the attack hit Shin, he transformed into Flame Wolf Emperor form.
As it was a fireball, it did no damage to him in this form, in fact, even gave back some HP!
Melos was surprised to find a gigantic ball of fire vanish right away as if it had been sucked away into some sort of pit.
However, when he saw the Flame Wolf form, he just nodded his head and said, "Makes sense."
Shin stared at mages on the walls as he murmured, "I'm telling you for the last time, get out of here Deoras."
This time Deoras didn't neglect the order and turned into a shadow, hiding away in shame.
'Indeed...'
'Nothing goes as planned...'
'I did expect them to send more soldiers to attack, but this...'
'This was beyond my expectations...'
'I didn't know that Levonia had such a strong mage with them.', Shin thought as he stared at Melos who was wearing a purple cape.
*Ding*
[You have used the skill All Seeing Eyes.]
He checked Melos ' mana and was surprised yet again.
'How is this possible...?'
'He uses such powerful attacks consecutively, yet only 1% of his mana has been consumed...'
"..."
"Ha..."
"You have done it now fuckers..."
"You have successfully angered me...", Shin murmured.
He stared at all of them for a second. A lot of mages had their attacks ready and at the slightest moment would fire.
Shin had to be careful.
'The best thing to do here is...'
'Escape!'
He immediately turned back and started to run.
No matter what, he had to get out of here.
Fighting humans is not the same as fighting beasts.
With much more training convenience and mastery of knowledge, a human was many times superior to any other beast.
Therefore, he made the decision to escape.
While he ran, he spot the three dead bodies of the shadow wolves, yet he didn't make any effort to stop himself and take revenge for them.
His life came first.
"Your Highness...?", all the shadow wolves who watched this happen from the shadows were shocked to see him run away.
'What?!'
'Do you expect me to fight an entire kingdom?!'
"..."
