Chapter 1704: Chapter 518 [Joker’s Magic Gloves]
“Ha! Dragon God Airel, that despicable fellow dares not co; do you think you can stop my return with just yourselves?”
Dead Dragon Marlodis sneered relentlessly.
The once wise and lively eyes within its fierce dragon head had now turned into cold, empty voids.
As it stared at this group of elites from the Holy Church, its gaze was filled with mockery and disdain.
That gaze seed to pierce through the soul, evoking an indescribable chilling sensation.
As it spoke, the spikes on its neck bulged and swelled, and it spewed out breath infused with flas engulfed in a golden glow.
The black flas of the Dragon’s breath flooded out like a torrent.
An atmosphere of despair and destruction overwheld the heavens.
Three ninth-rank Red Robed Archbishops ford the Dragon Slaying Formation without any fear. Magical Power converged, and the Spell was instantly cast: “Divine Skill·Dragon Spear!”
On the Nine-pointed Star Magic Array, the War God’s power of Achilles materialized into a spear of condensed white light, thrusting straight towards the torrential Dragon’s breath.
In that mont, it resembled a teor slicing through the darkness.
The Dragon Spear, both a spear and a shield, blocked the terrifying Dragon’s breath like an umbrella against a downpour, scattering it in all directions.
Leonard Churchill, witnessing this from afar, marveled to himself, realizing that even gods could be challenged.
The three ninth ranks were at the pinnacle of the Demigod Realm, and there were many top-tier fighters in their team who had stepped into the Demigod Realm, releasing power far beyond Leonard’s comprehension.
This was the highest-level battle he had ever seen.
Because the stakes were so high, he hardly understood the collision of laws, making it look rather mundane, like a simple conflict between spear and shield.
Leonard concentrated attentively on the battle, not wanting to miss any details.
…
However, just when he thought the people of the Holy Church might have a chance of winning, Elder Clinton muttered: “If that Dead Dragon were still of Middle Divine Status, perhaps the Holy Church’s Dragon Slaying Formation could have held up for a mont. Unfortunately, the Dead Dragon’s current realm is such that not even Airel in his full form could withstand… If this creature truly achieves resurrection, fears are that no one in the Card Master Plane will stand a chance against Him.”
Leonard exclaid in surprise: “That powerful?”
Elder Clinton’s eyes, full of depth, responded, “Yes. The Dragon Clan is naturally a superior race, with physical combat power far surpassing humans. Otherwise, Marlodis, even when of Middle Divine Status, wouldn’t have dared ambush Emperor Lanlingster. Now that His Rank has been promoted, do you see how formidable He is?”
“…”
Hearing these words, Leonard fell into silence.
With Elder Clinton saying so, it must be formidable.
But why would Emperor Lanling leave such a severe hazard?
Before he could ponder further, just as Elder Clinton had said, the situation abruptly changed.
Just monts ago, it seed the Holy Church could hold their ground, but with a disdainful snort, the intertwining Divine Power of light and darkness around Dragon God Marlodis surged violently.
That Dragon’s Might felt like the oppressive force emitted by Death itself upon arrival.
The air filled with the vile stench of decay and withering; all life seed pale and withered in its presence.
An eerie scene unfolded; the once sturdy spear of Achilles, the War God, suddenly began to crumble like a breached dam at that instant.
“Boom!”
The lead Red Robed Archbishop bore the brunt, bursting apart without a chance to react.
The other two ninth-rank Archbishops also suffered severe injuries, their Holy Domains collapsing as they spewed blood and flew back, appearing fatally wounded if not dead.
Behind them, a hundred elite soldiers couldn’t withstand the explosive Divine Power, scattering limbs and severed arms as the hundred-strong regint was nearly annihilated in an instant.
The Nine-pointed Star Magic Array extinguished, and the Dragon Slaying Formation collapsed on the spot.
…
“Is that defeat?”
Witnessing this scene, Leonard’s gaze stiffened.
He had assud the Holy Church’s extensive preparations should have given them so chance of victory, but they were overwheld in an instant.
However, a fleeting thought sparked a strong premonition in his heart: “Sothing’s wrong! This is a bait!”
The defeat of the Holy Church’s forces was too smooth.
That’s why Leonard remained puzzled.
Where’s the Great On Skill? Where’s the Pope?
If Dragon God Airel dares not co, surely the Pope wouldn’t avoid either, right?
If this Golden Dragon God Marlodis truly returns, even the Pope must kneel.
Therefore, Leonard believed the Holy Church would give their all this ti!
However, although he guessed the beginning, he missed the ending.
The Holy Church indeed had a backup plan, but Leonard was still shocked by the appearance of a Crimson Great Sword erging from the void.
Others might not recognize what this sword erging from the void ant, but Leonard instantly identified it as the Magic Sword [Tirfeng]!
The timing was also perfect.
Just as the Dead Dragon was confidently annihilating the Holy Church’s Dragon Slaying regint, that crimson blood sword silently executed a strike.
It was clearly a preditated ambush!
The people of the Holy Church willingly acted as bait, creating an opportunity for the ambusher.
“Old Bible? How is this guy helping the people of the Holy Church?”
Leonard, recognizing the great sword, knew that it was Reuel Bible who had intervened with the sneak attack.
But isn’t the Crimson Sect allied with the Sun Sect? Why would they suddenly turn coats and help the enemy?
Sophia Jones, recognizing the magic sword as well, looked at Leonard with equal confusion.
Yet in an instant, Leonard understood, realizing clearly: “So that’s it…”
Behind Old Bible stands the Outer God “Crimson Corruption Seyadis.”
So, the motive for the ambush wasn’t to assist the Holy Church.
It was to help Himself.
If this Dead Dragon were to return, it would sweep through the Card Master Plane, and not just the Holy Church, other factions would likely stand no chance.
