Chapter 1905: The Battle for the Crown (Part 9)
……
Boom!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The battle between the two sides continued to escalate the more they clashed against each other. Each collision produced a massive reaction that affected the surroundings as well as those quite far from the center of the city.
The side of God’s Paradise had the advantage in terms of numbers, but the Monster Trio of the Empyrean Talons relied on their great teamwork and coordination to fight against the pressure, covering each other’s backs.
Diablo was also launching a series of ambushes from ti to ti, either providing a cover for the trio or pressuring the opposing side with his deadly attacks.
He was mostly targeting Lia, forcing the opposing side to give up so of their advantages just to cover her side. His timing was always perfect, making it harder for God’s Paradise to solely focus on the three.
Fortunately, Vulture was doing the sa, which made it hard for Shin and the other two to solely focus on their counterparts.
Even if the Monster Trio was able to keep their pace, they still found it hard to keep that pressure for long due to their limited health bars.
Even if they were able to hold their ground for that long, they still got hit by a few strikes, chunking a portion of their health bars during the battle.
With Lia on the opposing side, fighting at the sa pace would only put them at a disadvantage since God’s Paradise could just heal before continuing the battle.
Even if Arthur fully utilized the usage of his golden dragon in the fight to cover the lack of manpower, it could barely match what they needed. It was just a pet after all, it could not do that much against such high high-caliber opponent aside from coordinating with Arthur to perform so combination techniques.
Roar!
Shin and the others were starting to feel the pressure of not having a healer on their side, particularly Arthur, who was in the center of their opponent’s formation to keep them busy.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
While the trio was on the verge of being pushed back by the opposing side, a barrage of icicles suddenly appeared in the sky before pouring like rain.
These icicles were not your regular ones, either, since they were made of three different colors. The tip was made of ice elent, while the middle section seed to carry the wind elent. The bottommost part was entirely red due to the pure fire elent that it carried.
The bottom part was pushing the icicles forward with small explosions, propelling itself forward with the help of the wind elent on the middle section. anwhile, the sharp and pointed tip made of pure ice cut through the air while continuing to fall.
These tri-colored icicles did not just fall from the sky either. They moved along tricky paths in the air, making it harder to read their trajectory.
Moreover, they were skillfully manipulated by the caster, making them avoid the spots where the Monster Trio were fighting and only targeting the mbers of God’s Paradise.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Not only were these icicles deadly sharp, but they also started exploding right upon contact, dealing a considerable amount of damage to the opposition.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
In the anti, they took advantage of this chaos to launch a coordinated attack, further adding pressure to the opposing side.
Whoosh!
Amid the chaos, healing lights also appeared on the bodies of the three, restoring their health bars to a healthy state. This further enhanced their confidence, starting a strong counterattack.
Roar!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Seeing the current situation, Vulture swiftly moved and quickly sprinted toward a certain direction.
Swoosh!
He imdiately reached where those spells were being cast, seeing the pair of goddesses casting their spells one after another.
He did not dillydally and swiftly approached the two, wanting to target Cloe and Alice. Even if he was unsuccessful at ambushing them, attracting their attention was more than enough to at least disrupt their tempo.
Swoosh!
Unfortunately, right before he could even reach the two, Owen suddenly appeared and swiftly intercepted him.
Bang!
Raising his shield, he collided against the Scavenger King, coming out of nowhere.
However, Vulture responded quite well, swiftly crossing his arms and placing them to block the sudden ram along with his daggers.
Swoosh!
He then flipped in the air multiple tis, relieving most of the force from the impact before landing steadily on the ground with his feet.
Ta-ta!
Vulture did not have the luxury to adjust himself since Alice swiftly split her attention toward his direction and bombarded him with a series of spells.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
At the sa ti, Cloe had marked him with ‘Revealing Mark’, making it impossible for him to enter stealth for its entire duration.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Vulture did his best to dodge the spells thrown at him, moving around and distancing himself from the trio. He flipped, rolled, and jumped around while looking for an opening that he could use.
However, approaching those two girls would be impossible under Owen’s protection. He could not do it alone.
Swoosh!
Understanding the situation, Dio swiftly sprinted and quickly reached the battlefield, helping Vulture.
“Ha!”
Seeing another one coming, Owen swiftly activated his Ascended Ability.
Crackle! Crackle!
Activating the ‘Thunderbird Divine Tattoo’, Owen clanked his sword and shield against one another, welcoming the challenge.
…
Bang! Bang! Bang!
With Vulture forcing Alice to split her attention, the pressure on the other side of the battle was greatly lessened.
But with Dio leaving the formation, the Monster Trio and Diablo could now move more freely, using the gaps in the opposing side’s battle formation to go crazy.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Due to the combined forces of the Monster Trio, the sides of God’s Paradise were forced to move closer to one another, closing the gaps and fighting in a more stable formation.
Susanoo was in charge of protecting Lia from Diablo’s ambushes while Valerius, Kallavan, and Ashura created a triple front to ward off the advance of Shin, Arthur, and Leonard.
Since the situation was getting worse for God’s Paradise since their reinforcents arrived, they were forced to all use their connections with the hidden formation covering the entire city.
Along with their respective Elental Spirit Possession, Ascended Abilities, and Extraordinary Powers, they gained a larger edge compared to their opposition.
This then led to Shin and the others being on the back foot due to the disparity when it ca to firepower and defensive capabilities.
Realizing this, the Empyrean Talons forced more of their cards on top of their respective Elental Spirit Possessions.
Swoosh!
Shin summoned a monochro world that covered a large area, signifying that he had activated one of his domain skills.
‘Grim Reaper Skills (Tier 2): Monochro Field’
He did not even stop there, as he also released an overwhelming pressure coming from his body that restrained most of the powers of their opponents, activating his second domain skill.
‘Equipnt Skill (Headgear): Ruler’s Authority’
Boom!
In response to this, Arthur swiftly recalled his golden dragon pet back to his side before placing his hand on its head, enhancing the connection between the two of them.
Roar!
Through this, the golden dragon seed to have also received the powers of all the Elental Dragons that had possessed Arthur’s body through Elental Dragon Fusion.
The golden scales of the dragon pet gained a different luster that represented the elents that Arthur’s current possession had.
‘Dragon Cavalier Skill (Tier 2): Dragon Partner – Unification’
Roar!
Boom!
It then released a powerful presence that did not lose to any of the individuals present on the battlefield.
Boom!
On the other hand, Leonard further enhanced the circulation of blood and mana within his body, entering a berserk state.
Swoosh!
The shades of the crimson tattoo throughout his body deepened, while his eyes released a stronger sanguine light.
Roar!
At the sa ti, his canine teeth also grew a bit larger, while the Lion Helm that he was wearing seed to fuse with his head, turning its mane’s color deep crimson.
‘Unique Racial Trait: Primordial Beast – Awakening’
Seeing that the three were taking the initiative to use those cards, Diablo had to keep up with the pace and activated one of his killing cards as well.
He had already activated his ‘Shadow Equip – Divine War Robe’ earlier, along with his Elental Spirit Possession. To keep up with those three, he had to use an equally strong trump card.
Swoosh!
Activating the Ancient Shadow Powers that he controlled, he activated a domain skill that was a grade higher than the two skills that Shin had activated.
‘Ancient Shadow Power: Domain Skill – Shadow World’
The surrounding shadows seed to have responded to his words, enclosing a huge part of the city with dark powers.
Swoosh!
It created a huge do that sealed the battlefield from the outside world.
Whoosh!
What surprised everyone was when this ‘Shadow World’ slowly fused with the domain skill that Shin had just summoned, the ‘Monochro Field’.
With these four activating such trump cards, the side of God’s Paradise was able to sense the pressure coming from them instantly.
