Blood Elf Monarch

Chapter 305 - Crashed

All this time, the people of Arcadia, especially those who lived at the capital city of Prontea had been watching the gigantic steel boat hovering above their heads, situated high in the air. 

It was gone for a period of time, but when it made its way back and flew in the sky of their capital city, many of the citizens decided that it was time to leave the city. Especially, when they recalled what the ship had done to their strongest fighters.

However, It wasn't long until a rapid succession of explosions appeared in the sky. It was at that moment they understood that there were people fighting on the ship. Therefore, they stopped what they were doing and looked up to the sky, trying to get a clear look of what was happening.

"It must be our King, King Callan! He had come and saved us!!"

"We are saved!"

Moments later, they saw smoke appearing and spreading on the huge ship as it started to descend to the ground, heading in the south direction of the city. This spectacle successfully made all the people cheering in rejoice that the threat was gone.

"He did it! Our king did it!! The Arcadian is saved!!"

Shouts filled with celebration and salutation to the ruler of their nation resounded through the air as the huge spaceship continued its descent to the area located dozens of miles south of the capital city, slowly shrinking to a mere dot before completely disappearing from the vast blue expanse.

The earth was shaking and fierce winds were blowing, which was then followed by such an ear-piercing noise as the large spaceship struck and slid across the plains. The spaceship crashed through dozens of trees and several huge boulders in its journey of gaining friction to stop itself.

Most of the space knights within the spaceship were thrown and flung around, earning various degrees of injury. But all in all, it was a good crash. It was much smoother than what previously thought, which meant they had succeeded in landing the spaceship.

Tristan himself was thrown and hurt, but nothing that his Undying Body couldn't cure. When he regained his consciousness, he realized part of his lower body was still entangled by the net. He had to utilize his [Heat Touch] to burn and get himself out of it.

As he got up to his feet, the smoke surrounding the area also started to dissipate. Thanks to his enhanced senses, Tristan could tell that there were still many space knights alive. They were numbered in dozens and scattered around the crash site. With them were also Captain Jenkins and the Marshal.

Even though he had recovered himself, Tristan didn't immediately dash and attack them. Not yet.

He found a kind of pleasant sensation as he watched the blazing flames engulfing the few visible parts of the ship.

Not long after, while still looking at the sight of the spaceship engulfed by the flames, Tristan saw Captain Jenkins standing in front of him. The man was trying to be as calm as possible, but he could imagine what the man was feeling right now in his heart.

After all, Tristan had seen firsthand how angry his father was when he crashed their family car. Hence, he could roughly guess how furious Captain Jenkins was right now, with his ship wrecked like this.

Turning his eyes to Captain Jenkins, Tristan opened his mouth. "You are stuck in here now, captain. On this planet." A smirk slowly formed on his lips as he continued, "Knowing how emotional you must feel right now, I will reconsider your surrender."

Unexpectedly, Captain Jenkins wasn't the one who lost his temper first. The man who cladded in pitch-black power armor, the marshal, was the one as he lunged at Tristan with a ferocious look on his face.

However, a booming sound resounded in the sky before the two clashed. The conspicuous sound certainly distracted them as the marshal stopped in his tracks.

The marshal, Captain Jenkins, as well as the other space knights lifted their heads up to find the source of the sound. All of them were once again dumbfounded to see the small spaceship that had left with the Major on board just blown up in the sky.

They watched as the debris and remnants of the familiar ship rapidly fell down from the sky. It was apparent that whoever was trying to leave with that ship had failed. 

"H-How could this be..?" Captain Jenkins muttered, confusion was evident in his voice. "What the hell is going on here?!" 

The man seemed to have finally lost his cool as he turned to Tristan and pointed his trembling finger at him. "Y-Your planet has some kind of defense system?! What is it?!!"

Faced with the accusation, Tristan folded his arms and casually answered, "Seriously man, I really wish I knew. In fact, I'm hoping that you can tell me."

Captain Jenkins was so irritated by the nonchalant attitude he showed. At the same time, Tristan could see more space knights and space troopers coming out of the mostly destroyed spaceship. Apparently, his surrounding area began to be swarmed by his enemies.

"Captain, what are your orders now?" said the marshal while maintaining the hateful look he threw at Tristan.

Captain Jenkins seemed to think for a moment before he gave his orders. "Marshal, you pick a few knight to look for the Major! In the meantime, I will take care of this elf!"

"Yes, Captain!"

The marshal quickly pointed some of the space knights around as they quickly utilized their jet pack to head toward where the small spaceship's debris fell. But, just as they had gone a few meters, the marshal suddenly stopped.

He turned to Captain Jenkins and said in a heavy tone, "Captain, it seems that enemy reinforcements have arrived."

The marshal's made Captain Jenkins turn his head. When he saw what the former saw, his face immediately turned grim.

Tristan, on the other hand, smiled. "Finally, the only good news after a series of bad news I heard today."

From the distance, dozens of huge eagles could be seen rushing toward the crash site. Further back, there were also hundreds of figures riding their horses and heading toward their location.

They were the Arcadian wizards and Kingsblade's members - the Arcadian Kingdom's ranks of best combatants. The most problematic news for Captain Jenkins and the others were the three wizards flying through the sky, led by a familiar old man to Tristan - Tobias the Great Wizard.

Tristan look toward the captain smiling as he spoke, "I don't think you're all going anywhere."
