The enemy stared at the staircase as figures started showing up. Liona and the other 2 angels, Tank's four generals, and Beast's summons charged out and initiated the combat imdiately.
Thanks to Reign and Beast, they knew where the enemy was, unfortunately, the only ones that were close to them were the monsters, all of which were above level 90 and were amongst the more powerful monsters of their level.
The enemy team, however, stood back, waiting for them to tire out before they would attack. Upon seeing who ca out, they looked at Snik with a puzzled look as the man shook his head, he couldn't sense Reign and the others right now, he didn't know what was happening or why he was only able to sense those that had co out and started fighting.
'What is happening, I'm getting a bad feeling about this, where are those bastards, they should have co out by now, are they just planning on sacrificing these guys just to learn how powerful we are, no, that shouldn't be it, just the fact that I can't sense them anymore ans that they are probably planning sothing.' Snid thought as he closed his eyes.
'But what are they planning, they have to co up the stairs, there's no other entrance to this platform, it's simply impossible for them to go around us, fighting is their only option.'
'What are you planning, just what could it be?' Snid focused and turned off the sound of the battle coming from the angels and their monsters.
He could hear the humming of wind, the breath of his teammates, and even the sound of soil being slowly pushed around.
'Wait, soil, why do I hear sothing like that?' Snid suddenly asked himself as he looked back and stared at the place where he heard the sound coming from.
He could see nothing, but his eyes widened in shock as a theory ca to mind.
'They're coming from below us, damn it, they're tunneling through the platform, that has to be it!' Snid turned back and opened his mouth to shout to the boss and his other teammates who were unaware of the danger.
Before he could shout, however, a sharp pain assaulted him from behind, his breath was driven outside his body and a low sound of exhaling could be heard.
His eyes widened in shock as two daggers were stabbed inside his body while shadows appeared and bound his body, including his mouth.
He couldn't move, he couldn't speak, he could do nothing. The shadows were not even needed, to be honest, as the daggers had done their job, Snid's life had almost ended at the sa ti the daggers penetrated.
He only had a couple of more seconds to live and even without the bounds, he wouldn't have been able to do anything at all.
Suddenly the soil a couple of ters behind Snid exploded as Reign and the others burst out and charged at the enemy.
A couple of minutes ago.
"Done, I made a small hole, I can see the light from the ceiling of the next platform, I just don't know if the enemy will be able to spot it." Reign said in a low voice as the others all looked at him.
"Let up, I can use my teleport, the lights create shadows and as long as I can see the shadow, I can teleport to it, no matter how small the hole is," Shadow said as Reign nodded at him.
"I doubt any of them will be able to notice with my ability working, just thin out the soil around the hole a bit, then use your sword and reflect the light from the ceiling to let know that you are done, I'll attack at that mont and you guys should burst out and join ." Reign and the others simply nodded at Shadow again as he teleported to a tree that was near the hole they created.
They quickly went to work and in only 2 minutes, they finished what they needed to do.
Reign first notified Liona and the others that they were prepared, to which Liona simply nodded her head before heading up the stairs with the others.
Reign did as Shadow had told him to do, he used his sword to reflect the light and Shadow nodded to him before showing a thumbs up. He waited for a couple of seconds before disappearing from the spot, which made Reign and the others know to attack.
Upon bursting out from below, Reign and the others quickly charged at the enemy, they didn't attack the monsters at all as they were further away, and they had already sent Tank and Greenie to go up the stairs and help Liona and the others out.
Judging from how the enemy fought, they probably weren't that powerful in close-quarter combat and would try to bring the monsters over to help them out.
That would alleviate the pressure from Liona and the others, while not doing much to Reign and the others as they planned on finishing the battle before the monsters could arrive.
The enemy was suddenly in disarray, just as Reign had speculated, they were quite bad at fighting and weren't a threat. There were only 3 guys that were decent and could withstand the onslaught from Reign and the others, but the other mbers of the team couldn't even put up a fight before being killed.
The more people they killed, the fewer monsters were under control, which made the monsters confused for a mont before anger took over them.
They rembered the feeling of being under control and hated it. Those that were not close to a battle would either charge at the enemy team or flee while those that were close to Liona and the others, or had been fighting against them when the control wore off, continued fighting as they couldn't really do anything else at the mont as they were being attacked.
Clang!
Clang Clang Clang Clang!
Sparks flew out as Reign's two swords t with the sword of the leader of the enemy team.
Reign had recognized the man even when he and the others were still on the platform below this one. He had already seen the man's soul once when he had taken over the young man who had attacked Carlo's people together with Bones.
The man's swordplay was nothing to scoff at as he elegantly parried Reign's attacks whilst moving around and using the trees as cover in so cases.
That, however, was all that he did, he didn't try to attack Reign once and simply observed the situation around them. His n were getting slaughtered, and the two that were actually good at fighting were being suppressed by Wolf and Shadow currently.
The other mbers were like fish in a barrel for Laura and the others who were killing them all. More monsters were becoming free and Liona and the others were out of danger.
"To think you would actually co up with such a plan, to create a tunnel and attack us from behind, I have to say that I didn't expect that, you man." The boss spoke in a raspy voice as Reign said nothing and rely continued attacking him.
Both of them knew that the battle was already over. Being stripped of their biggest strength, the monsters, the enemy team could do nothing to Reign and the others.
Even though the boss was not going all out and seriously fighting Reign, he doubted that he would be able to win. His sword proficiency was high and he was quite adept at using it, but it was a fact that his ability was not suited for sothing like that.
His skills and stats were also heavily based on controlling monsters and even though he could use his ability and skills to summon so of his monsters in order to aid them during this battle, it would be for naught.
Not only would the monsters not help them defeat Reign and the others, but he would also be showing more of his skills and full strength to Reign, sothing that he really didn't want to do at this mont.
His two top n fell, both of them suffering from heavy injuries as they didn't use any skills either.
"Yeah, well, we have a smart guy with us, as, for you, you can think of it as bad luck or an on of sorts." Reign said as his lightning started condensing and coiling around his body.
"But I'm afraid that this will be it for you when it cos to the hidden task." Reign said in a low voice as he stared at the enemy leader before dropping down in a low stance.
He held his two swords and charged at the enemy leader, his speed being barely visible to the naked eye, well, at least the eye of a normal person.
Reign slashed up and his two swords hit their marks, delivering two deep wounds on the man's torso before he fell down to his knees.
"See you next ti, kid." The man said before crashing head-first on the floor
