LEGENDARY GUARDIAN 145 Chapter 145: Defensive Formation

Behind the small beam of darkish purple light was a ma.s.sive scorching sun with an oranges hair youth at the center. It became clear to him that this battle was one-sided and it seemed as if only Kaido was enjoying it.

......….

Atop the ma.s.sive wall were peak experts of the Cato kingdom, over a hundred plus warriors and mages with profound cultivation realms. At this point, the weakest member of this group was at the low grade of the silver realm! If any other kingdom were to witness all five hundred plus silver realm warriors and mages atop the wall, they most likely would have been terrified. Even Gyro did not have half this number of silver realm experts on their side.

For a while now, all four great kingdoms of Aldemar have coexisted peacefully because all the sides a.s.sumed the others possessed equal strength, an all-out war will simply lead to mutual destruction.

While Gyro possessed the least number of experts at the silver realm, they possess a host of the legendary cosmic spirit, Kalos the spatial magician. His ability to control s.p.a.ce itself is enough to terrify other kingdoms. It is said that Kalos once battled over 20 peak expert warriors and mages of the elven clan alone, and the battle didn't even last a minute, funny enough he was at the bronze realm at that time. With a profound realm coupled with the t.i.tle kingdom guardian, no one can estimate Kalos' true competence and no one is willing to be the scapegoat as well. Chances are, the spatial mage may even wipe the floor with the so called three hero's of legend if a fight should break out, that is to show how powerful a cosmic spirit is.

And then there is the Elven Kingdom, Alda. This kingdom has been know to possess the largest number of experts and silver realm elite. They may lack powerful physical cla.s.s members but their mages are archers with profound realms that are always superb. With long life comes experience! When it comes to warfare, the kingdom of Alda has always excelled with the help of their ancient knowledge on warfare, sorcery and magic formations to help turn the tide of battle. These people are the keepers of ancient spells created by the ancestors which shook the world and they also have nature by their side. Making them the least people whom any reasonable force will want to attack!

Cato kingdom, on the other hand, has never really produced outstanding warriors or mages but that does not make them inferior to the other kingdoms. Their forging and alchemy skills have proven extremely important over the centuries! Being able to arm a force of tens of thousands of warriors and mages with magic weapons according to their cla.s.ses and realm is no small thing. Such a team is capable of handling an identical force, three times their number!

And finally, there is Baldmar, the lizard man race. The lizardmen are known to train their offsprings from a very tender age allowing them to have a good understanding of their powers and realms a lot more than others! The presence of a gold level magic weapon is not something that can be easily ignored! This tool has been used to decimate the allied forces of the three kingdoms of Aldemar, forcing them to retreat and let the lizardmen tribe grow and become a kingdom comparable to the other three.

For a while now, Derik thought that the various kingdoms in the continent were matched in terms of overall strength but now he realized how wrong he was. Right in front of his eyes were over five hundred warriors and mages at the silver realm, it was obvious these people did not want him to leave the kingdom alive.

At this point, Derik realized that the balance has been broken and war may soon break out, if the kingdom of Cato sent just five hundred or three hundred silver realm elites to the sky rift, the could have retrieved the treasures there and easily subdued the expedition troops of the other kingdoms. It was obvious that these people wished to keep this special team secret unless necessary.

For them to use such a force on Derik simply means that they don't only want his life, but the treasures he acquired from the dungeon! Unfortunately, Derik's case was quite unique and the three items he received were all related to his death magic. So they still won't profit much even if they killed him, but they don't know that!

Currently, Cato has a member of the three hero's of legend, a gold realm master on their side coupled with the shocking five hundred plus silver realm elite which can make any kingdom break a sweat! Even the holy church will be more obedient if they knew of this force. With all that said, it became clear to Derik that things may not remain as peaceful as it uses to be.

The Gyro kingdom only had Kalos and Cyrus which is not enough, Derik knew that the Gyro kingdom will not be able to deal with Cato if they decide to invade now. Even though Gyro betrayed him, he only held the royal family and some n.o.bles responsible, he still planned to return and set things right. For that reason, he couldn't let these five hundred plus silver realm experts rest easy! He was determined to reduce their numbers as much as he can before he leaves

"Wish to take me down? You are not qualified!" Derik sneered as he shot forward with all his might, to meet the five hundred plus silver realm experts.

............…..

Atop the wall was a middle-aged man in silver knight armor who seemed to be the leader of this group. He stared at the darkish purple beam of light shooting towards the wall and a sinister smile crept on his face. He could tell what Derik was thinking and he was eager to prove that kid wrong.

"He wishes to have our heads, I wish I could give him a chance but we already got our orders! Ready the defensive formation, no one gets in or out!" the man said while stroking his beards!

Immediately the magic writings on the walls suddenly lit up, releasing a bright light. Instantly a transculent barrier appeared above the kingdom, slowly taking the form of a dome around the kingdom.

Soon the whole kingdom was surrounded by a ma.s.sive semi-translucent barrier that was almost invisible to the naked eyes.

Seeing this, the confident smirk on Derik's face vanished, replaced with a frown. With the defensive mechanism of the wall activated, his plans of destroying the walls and letting the demon beasts in the forest do the rest of the job was no longer feasible and this vexed him a lot.

"b.a.s.t.a.r.ds!" Derik roared like a wounded beast as he shot forward towards the men and women standing on the wall. His darkish purple fiery eyes burned fiercely and claws sprouted on his fingers.

"Silver level secret combat technique: Brilliant claw!" Derik roared and death aura burst out of his claws.

Each claw-shaped darkish purple energy that appeared had numerous skull-shaped little white light in them which let out shrieks and screams.

"Burn in h.e.l.l… I'm sure my guardian spirit will be eager to meet you all!" Derik roared and brandished his claws at them, releasing ten claw-shaped darkish purple energy attacks.

Bam!

Bam!!

Bam!!!

Bam!!!!

The claw-shaped attacks mercilessly flew towards the mages and warriors standing on the southern walls of Cato but to his greatest surprise, his attacks. .h.i.t a transculent barrier that flashed upon contact.

At that moment Derik realized that the barrier formation they set up was not as simple as he thought, this was a two-way barrier that emanated from the magic marking on both sides of the wall, leaving a s.p.a.ce in between the wall.

This explains why these men and women were confidently gazing at him with mocking smiles from the very beginning!

He, the death G.o.d who stole the lives of thousands of promising warriors and mages at the age of fifteen!

For the first time in half a decade, Derik felt vexed by the situation. He let out a roar and stormed forward with malicious intentions

"You dare to ridicule the master of the death element? Hahahaha! You must be tired of living! Let us see if this barrier can keep you away from death itself!" Derik roared like a savage beast and let loose on the barrier

Silver level secret combat technique: Werewolves roar!"

His death aura burst out violently and took the form of a majestic werewolf! This was the first time Derik was going all out for half a decade.

The ma.s.sive werewolf stood on its hind legs and its eyes were like scorching flames that could easily reduce its targets with its mere gaze! On its body were furs so thick that it looked like scales and its claws were like darkish purple flaming spears that could tear the void apart easily. This majestic beast was over a hundred meters tall, making it taller than the walls of Cato

"Go! Get me their heads!" Derik roared

Awwwwooooooooooooo!!!!!

The werewolf roared and stormed forward, brandishing its flaming skulls on the transparent barrier. Numerous lights flashed and each strike shook the earth.

For the first time traces of fear appeared on the expressions of the silver realm experts on the wall and Derik was enjoying the sight. He realized he was the one to be feared and not the other way around.

How dare mere silver realm experts look down on him?

How dare they make fun of him?

On through death can they pay for their crimes!

No one looks down on the bringer of death!

As the fear in the hearts of those men grew so did Derik's power and that of the ma.s.sive werewolf! Derik was extremely thrilled by what was going on until he felt a scorching feeling on his bareback. It was like his blood was boiling and the pieces of clothing left on him was going to go ablaze at any moment from now

Nothing good lasts long…

From the feeling, Derik could tell that it was Kaido who he ditched behind for a while.

[This time things will be different] Derik thought.

The short encounter with these arrogant silver realm experts here made him understand his role in this life. He finally understood what went wrong and why he couldn't challenge this youth with the power of the sun.

If the kid possessed the power of the sun, then so what?

And if he's at the low grade of the gold realm, then so what?

Death is the only thing that can be called absolute in this life!

No one is truly invincible!

No one is truly Immortal!

"I will let you know what it means when they say h.e.l.l on earth!" Derik sneered as he waited for Kaido to arrive with a sinister smile on his face.
