Battle 2
Battle 2
'That spiritual array formation is not common!' He sensed how complex that creation from one of the God of Death's array masters was. 'How did they achieve such a thing?'
But his curiosity was limited to asking himself questions and trying to understand how Minos achieved so many impressive things without appearing to have any significant support.
This Spiritual Sage had been watching Minos for months. He had seen the ways of this young man's forces, the development of local cities, and the techniques used by this empire's high-level members. Thus, he had a good idea of how rich Emperor Stuart and this state were.
Because of this, such a person was quite impressed with the wealth that Minos had obtained in a way that was so hard to identify that even he could not understand.
'Is that fate?' He wondered. 'It is said that very talented people are sometimes favored by the Natural Laws as if they were children of heaven...'
'Could this be the case? Is he so lucky that he comes into contact with valuable things for no reason?' He looked at the battlefield, where at the moment, thousands of hexagonal mirrors had purple chains going from one side to the other, attacking and saving people.
In that part of the battlefield in the skies above Dry City, Abby was floating on Emlyn's back, this level 66 Nine-tailed Fox.
"Au! Au!"
Emlyn howled with much of her strength, creating jets of spiritual energy in the direction of groups of high-level Spiritual Emperors.
Some individuals of that strength range were still on the battlefield, supporting the Spiritual Saints fighting against the groups of local forces.
Abe knew that Minos used the strategy of collective fighting to defeat higher-level enemies. So he was not only attacking the local forces with his experts. But also with individuals capable of distracting the many enemy groups while the specialists acted for the sake of their objectives.
Hence, several of these individuals were still around the battlefield, fighting with all their might against opponents like that Nine-tailed Fox, who, from time to time, acted against them.
But the focus of almost everyone there, not just the strongest, was to limit or take down the 8th-stage opponents, the ones who really had a chance of causing havoc in Dry City.
"Kill her!" Abe shouted to his experts, seeing Ruth fighting a low-level Spiritual Saint far away from other relevant allies.
When he heard that, the strongest Spiritual Saint in that group saw that level 67 woman and identified the enemy leader's wife. Since he had already lost several subordinates to Minos' forces and almost lost his body to the black hole, he did not hesitate to act!
Even though she was such a weaker opponent than him, acting would not be wrong since her death could destabilize the mind of a powerful enemy.
'You will be the sacrifice for me to regain my honor!' He thought as he activated his Spiritual Avatar and attacked in the direction of the black-haired woman, who was beside a Feathered Serpent.
When the people in the surrounding area saw that, several local leaders shook with bad feelings, afraid that someone so important to Minos would get hurt on the battlefield.
Someone like Minos could not be angered. He was the worst kind of individual to get angry at, someone incapable of forgetting and forgiving.
Knowing this, these people were not only afraid because it would be a shame for something to happen to glorious Ruth but because Minos' revenge would bring pain to everyone.
With that, dozens of soldiers started flying towards her, ready to give their lives and save Minos' sweet wife from the giant spiritual hand falling on her.
"Impossible! You are too weak!" The level 78 Spiritual Saint arrogantly said while having one of his hands pressing against the air.
"Sister!" Talia, level 68, who was also in Dry City to fight alongside Minos' forces, screamed as she saw her sister being brutally attacked by the more powerful enemy.
"Bastard Abe!" A nobleman from Vogel shouted as he charged toward that fellow, along with several other individuals from Minos' forces, trying to get the enemy to stop the attack.
But then, while Ruth seemed in a no-win situation, a terrifying sensation broke out from one of the individuals on the battlefield, drawing the attention of even the Spiritual Sage, who was watching the battle.
When Gavin finally began to use his unique lineage, red energy began to spread from the surroundings, departing from his Spiritual Avatar.
Then the large head of the avatar glowed at the height of his forehead until a large red eye appeared there, shining the skies below Dry City.
Zum!
With such a glow, the space in Gavin's surroundings shook as if the space-time fabric was wrinkling until a 'space switch' took place in that area.
In the blink of an eye, Ruth and the Feathered Serpent at her side disappeared from where they were, appearing at the spot where Gavin was standing earlier. At the same time, this red-headed fellow appeared below where the enemy avatar's hand was falling.
"Come to be destroyed!" He shouted at the sight of that powerful attack as he put his hands up and directed large fractions of his energies to the center of his forehead.
By the time the enemy realized what was happening, it was too late for the level 78 Spiritual Saint to do anything about Gavin's movement.
Even though he felt it would not be advisable to touch the enemy's Spiritual Avatar, he could not stop his movement. So, his own avatar's hand crashed into the opponent's.
At that decisive moment, everyone paid attention in their direction, even Abe, who was in a mortal fight against enemies, seeing that person's prowess.
'Who is this? Where the hell did Minos get this guy from?' Abe wondered as he saw the red eye on Gavin's forehead glow once again.
When the shock finally happened, causing shock-generated energy waves to destabilize the flight of hundreds of people in the local skies, Gavin's act took effect.
He suffered immensely in this blow, but his innate ability did not fail him, triggering a powerful reaction.
Destruction!
The enemy's Spiritual Avatar managed to push Gavin back a few meters during the initial shock. But while he was at a disadvantage, this red-headed man made the semi-transparent being attacking him tremble as cracks appeared in that giant hand.
Along with those cracks, such a being stopped pressing Gavin so hard, while screams emerged from the position of that level 78 Spiritual Saint's physical body.
"Ahhhhhhhhh!" He expressed the pain of having his soul hurt by a high-level attack made by a skill specialized in complex mental attacks.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"
But Gavin also felt the weight of the enemy's hand, suffering several injuries to his soul, given that he had his avatar attacked by another, but also to his physique.
When he was 'slapped' by the enemy's spiritual hand, this fellow held on for a short time until he had his body thrown toward the ground.
As his Spiritual Avatar disappeared, he crashed into a four-story building in a part of Dry City, destroying that place completely!
