Amaranto and Yvette shuttled through the mountains and forests like two streams of light, and behind them were four figures following closely. They were moving faster and kept closing the distance with the two people in front.
There were two streaks of blood on Amaranto's mouth and many wounds on his body. The special robe of the Sword Tower looked like a pile of tattered rags. Yvette beside him was in a worse situation. One of his arms was broken. The intense movement during the escape caused the wound on his arm to rupture continuously. Even the healing magic could not seal the wound.
"Amaranto! Don't hold me back anymore. I'll stop the enemy and you escape alone. Even if I die, it's one for two, so we don't lose out." Yvette said, his tone fluctuating and he looked very painful.
"Shut up." Amaranto used a magic belt to pull Ivette, and continued to release acceleration and flight spells, making himself move faster. But the acceleration in a seriously injured state was still not as fast as the few people who followed him. Among them were warriors and mages, and combined with the continuous effect of acceleration magic and the burst of fighting spirit, their speed was only faster than Amaranto.
They also continued to release magic and sword attacks, forcing Amaranto and the other man to dodge left and right, slowing down their speed.
"I didn't expect that the people in the God City would react in just a few days. Maybe we have been hiding in the valley for too long and have lost our vigilance. Let me go. There are so many people in the Sword Tower, and they still need someone to lead them forward." Yvette said again, I can use my last secret sword skill, Heart Devouring, to maybe cause them a little trouble. "
Amaranto said, “Stop talking.”
"There's no chance of escape. There's just this vast forest for hundreds of kilometers ahead. There's not even any cover. We can't get rid of them," said Yvette.
"Then let me stop and fight them again. Two secret swords always have a better chance than one." Amaranto said in a deep voice, "They don't need us to lead them. There are many new roads waiting for them ahead."
"I see... Three to two doesn't sound bad." Yvette said while coughing.
Amaranto's Black Tortoise Squad went deep into the eastern border of the empire. They raided the two saints sent by the City of Gods to control the Temple of Nature, and successfully killed them at the cost of two elders of the Tower of Swords. However, one of the saints had already informed the City of Gods. Through the teleportation array inside the temple, a hunting team from the City of Gods soon appeared in the Temple of Nature, so the ambush turned into an ambush. Except for the two saints, the Black Tortoise Squad was wiped out. Amaranto and Yvette were also injured. They escaped from the temple all the way, which led to this pursuit.
The several saints of the city of gods who were chasing found that the two people in front of them suddenly stopped. The leading mage was about to speak and command the siege, but he felt a very strong energy suddenly burst out from the two people. Amaranto and Yvette each spit out blood, and then two lights that could not be seen by the naked eye hit the mages in front. That was the last secret sword released by the two. The first secret sword hit the mage's shield and exploded into pieces, but the mage's own shield was also completely shattered. Then another secret sword pierced the mage's body and pierced his heart, but the two people who had performed the heart-eating secret technique also lost their lives and fell into the dense forest below...
In a natural temple in the center of the kingdom, two fierce battles were going on.
Gabriel's Ares Armor radiated golden light, and his wings of light spread out like a god descending from heaven. The red sword in his hand released an astonishingly high temperature, turning into a fiery red storm, rolling towards the enemy in front of him. It was a sturdy warrior holding a two-handed axe. His fighting spirit field was steaming with blood, which could corrode the enemy's body and equipment, but Gabriel's Ares Armor was a real artifact, making his blood pool field almost ineffective. The axe warrior was completely suppressed by Gabriel and could only make limited counterattacks in the red storm.
On the other side, Anar, who was also wearing Ares Armor, was fighting against a female warrior who used a dagger as a weapon. The female warrior was very fast, and her fighting spirit field had a gain attribute, which always enabled her to strengthen her own strength, speed and hit rate at the critical moment. Originally, Anar, who was one realm lower than her, should have found it difficult to deal with it even with the help of Ares Armor, but she seemed to be in a very special state at this time. Her eyes radiated silver light, and her expression was very focused, as if she was not fighting, but thinking about a serious problem. Above her forehead, there was a silver star flickering slightly, hovering one centimeter above her forehead no matter how she moved. This star had a vague connection with Liu Yisheng, who was floating in the air watching the battle.
This is Liu Yisheng's special magic: Guiding Star. This magic has no other effects, but it can increase the activeness of the person's thinking, or in more common terms, it makes the person more insightful and easier to break through. Anar is now at a critical moment, and today's battle may be her breakthrough battle.
Apart from this, Liu Yisheng did not interfere with her fight, because Anar, who was at the peak of the master level and equipped with the God of War weapons, had the power to fight against the Saint level. Although the opponent's strength was still able to suppress her, the understanding between life and death played a very important role in breaking through the realm.
Anar's weapon was a hammer, which was heavier than the opponent's short sword, so it was very difficult to keep up with the opponent's speed in the battle. For this reason, she had been hit by more than ten swords. However, the opponent's female saint found that Anar's speed had caught up unknowingly, and it was becoming increasingly difficult for her to hit the opponent. She was extremely anxious because she could feel that the man floating in the air was very powerful, but so far he had only watched the battle and had not taken action. She now just hoped that the request for help from the God City had been sent out, and that Lord Dominic's reinforcements would arrive in time.
However, this distraction gave Anar, who was on the opposite side, an opportunity. She swung her hammer and smashed it at the female saint. At the same time, her aura suddenly changed, and the fighting spirit she released was much more condensed than before. Her movements were more than twice as fast.
"You are already a saint!" The female saint on the other side was hit on the cheek by the hammer before she could shrink back. The fighting spirit on the hammer broke through the opponent's protective fighting spirit and smashed half of the female saint's face.
