Chapter 543: Brooks
Like the last ti, Hayden and a few other mages walked out of the mansion house and entered the carriage, and left the mansion building in a hurry.
On the other hand, Charles watched the carriage disappearing from his right, lowered his head, and spoke to the nearby gatekeeper.
"I think my stomach is not well today." He touched his belly, turned around, and then added.
"Watch over my duty. I'll be back in two minutes."
Before the other gatekeeper could open his mouth, Charles hurriedly moved towards the four-storied mansion building's entrance.
"Hey! Where are you going? You shouldn't use the mansion bathroom!" The gatekeeper shouted at him like the last ti, but Charles shrugged it off and continued to walk.
Soon, he entered the strange layer that shrouded the mansion building, moved towards the four-storied building's porch, and arrived in front of the entrance door.
Then, he took a deep breath, raised both hands, and pushed open the door.
A screeching noise ca from the door as he stepped into the main hall and soon froze.
At that mont, what appeared in front of him were not the Divine Order mbers but a single black-robed guy.
He appeared to be around 60 to 70 years old, had a wrinkled face, bald head with so white hair on sides, fair skin, almond blue eyes, and thick eyebrows.
Currently, he held a single wooden staff in his right hand and appeared to be holding it tightly for support.
Charles's mind went chaos for a second as he saw a completely different future unfolding in front of his eyes.
'What the hell happened? Did I change the tiline?' While he was in confusion, the old man let out a burp and spoke.
"You can call Brooks. My employer asked to capture you at all cost, young man. Now, surrender yourself before I get serious."
Just as he finished his sentence, a total of three golden rune-engraved human skeletons in a black robe appeared in front of the old man and turned their gazes towards Charles.
Each skeleton held two unique silvery swords in its hands, had reddish soul fire in its eyes, and appeared powerful.
Charles frowned as he heard the old man's words and instantly cast [False Field] and [Accelerate Thoughts] spell on himself.
'I don't know who he is talking about, but I can vaguely feel that sothing is wrong about the current situation.' His complexion turned gloomy.
'Should I retreat?' He instantly shook his head and decided to gather more about this new enemy.
He activated the [Eyes of the Runes] skill and looked at Brooks.
But a second later, his face showed a confused expression on his face.
'Why couldn't I scan him? No, there is nothing but a pure form of nether energy appeared over there.' His pupil shrunk abruptly.
Simultaneously, he received a prevision warning and cast [False Blink] spell.
He disappeared from there, reappeared behind the current Brooks, and punched him at the head.
anwhile, Brooks' head and body exploded into countless mirrors the next second and dispersed into thin air.
On the other hand, a strange ripple appeared at the place Charles stood before, moved like a wave, and soon broke into countless mirror glasses, revealing a black-robed man from those broken mirrors.
'A mirror illusion?' Charles looked at the front and raised his eyebrows.
"Oh? How did you manage to perceive my attack? Interesting. It's rare to see an enemy who is well-versed in Ti Magic."
At that mont, a booming voice ca out of Brooks' mouth.
On the other hand, the three golden-rune inscribed skeletons suddenly unsheathed their swords and encircled Charles from three sides.
But what surprised him was not the unique engraving on their bones, but their movents speed.
All three of those skeletons moved too fast, which led him only to see blurry images!
'Sh*t! These three skeletons have the strength of peak Legend Rank!' At that mont, he also realized that the black-robed wasn't an ordinary fellow.
He cast [Rebirth Body] spell on himself and turned into an elental being without any delay.
Simultaneously, he locked his gaze on Brooks and ordered Genesis to activate the [Ti-Stop] ability.
An invisible ripple ca out of his body the next instant, spread all over the surroundings, and soon enveloped the Miracle City.
Charles soon saw everything around him get frozen in ti and sighed inwardly.
'At least, I have got an advantage now.'
He took more than five steps, walked past a golden skeleton that stood in the front, and moved closer towards Brooks.
But just as he was about to take the sixth step, he felt a strange eerie gaze from behind.
No, not one but three people's gazes!
With an alard look, he turned around and soon got stiffened.
He noticed that the three golden skeletons also turned their heads towards his direction in unison and opened their bony mouth.
'You aren't the only one with special abilities.' A telepathic voice echoed in his head the next second.
Before Charles could even understand the situation, the golden skeleton near him took two steps forward and thrust a longsword at his chest area.
'F*ck! They are moving without any restrain!' Charles saw the sword moving towards his chest at a terrifying speed and tried to leap towards the right side to dodge.
Alas, the golden skeleton seed to have long predicted his next movent, changed the direction of its sword in midway and aid precisely at his heart region.
A second later, the silvery sword tore through the space and ti power, appeared in front of his chest, and directly plunged into his chest.
Charles flew in the air as the skeleton closed the distance between them at an unimaginable speed and kicked him in the chest.
The next second, Charles's body flew towards the right side at terrifying speed and crashed onto the large stone pillar.
Thankfully, the sword wound on Charles's chest healed instantly due to him being in elental form.
Still, not a single sign of relief appeared on Charles's face.
Instead, his face was filled with full of shock and disbelief.
'No good! These skeletons are too fast!' Before he could even stand up, he noticed that all three skeletons had already arrived near him and pointed their swords at him.
'Surrender now, young man.' The sa old man's voice echoed in his head.
But he also managed to notice an anomaly at that mont.
He noticed that the black-robed old man remained in the sa place as before!
'Wait! Is he still affected by the 'Ti-Stop' ability? Moreover, why didn't Professor nullify the 'Ti-Stop' effect yet? Is this his sche? How did he know about ?' Countless questions whirled in his head.
At that mont, he also noticed the black-robed guy's motive.
'He isn't trying to kill . He is planning to capture here!' A strange chill appeared in his heart.
He knew that would be the worst possible outco and decided to escape here at all cost.
'I need to die here.' But he knew that it was easier said than done in this situation.
'I can't even kill myself in this situation.' He paused for a mont and then asked.
'Genesis, is there a way for to get out of this situation? What spell can I use while in this 'Ti-Stop' ability?'
[The chance of you being captured by the enemy is very high, Host. I suggest you close the distance between you and Brooks and wait for my call. Once I undo the [Ti-Stop] ability, you can use that opportunity, cast your [Soul Shock] spell on him, and paralyze his soul. The reason Brook's skeletons are moving in the [Ti Stop] effect is due to them being [Demigod] rank being's skeletons.] Genesis spoke in the sa synthetic voice.
'No wonder I got thrashed by these skeletons..' He stood up unsteadily and locked his gaze on Brooks.
