719 A Stronger Attack

Alba was leading the charge against Murkel, and all of those that could fight were going off ahead. As she ran forward, she swung her sword down and Murkel had completely evaded it. Next, three fists coming from Dame appeared, aiming to hit the side of Murkel. He managed to lift his leg and strike them down. A sword was thrown against his back by Ricktor but as it hit his body, it hardly did anything to pierce it, and he had just let it go.

Ilowever, it was a small distraction and one person had come incredibly close to where Murkel was; Raze was right in front of him. Raze made it look like he was going to strike him with the sword, but purposely missed and hit the ground.

The moment he did, sparks ignited from his sword, and ran from the floor hitting the entirety of Murkel's body. It had stopped him for a moment, and Amir had arrived with his giant axe hand, hitting him right at the top of Murkel's head.

It had sent Murkel flying as his Qi managed to protect him from getting cut, but not the direct impact.

Murkel then crashed into the wall, but Raze didn't stop his attack there. He lifted his sword off the ground and while doing so the sword had disappeared from the magic. He had raised himself in the air, and from above he started to move both of his hands, firing off in the direction of Murkel.

"Dark Pulse, Dark Pulse, Dark Pulse!"

Several beams of Dark magic shot out of Raze's hands right where Murkel was, but Raze could see they were having next to no effect.

Murkel had managed to condense his Qi to a higher level than it was when he had spread it out from his body, and as he hit the Dark Pulse, the Qi was stronger than the magic, destroying it with each hit.

Amir came forward again trying to create a distraction, swinging his large beast hand from the side. Yet Murkel was able to block a Dark Pulse with one hand and grabbed the beast axe, throwing it to the floor.

When Dame came for a surprise hit, Murkel hit him right in the stomach, sending him flying away, Murkel then spun his body and was ready to strike Alba who was next with her two swords.

As he was getting ready to hit her, an ice pillar raised from the ground just beneath Murkel's foot and sent him off balance, causing his punch to miss. Then Alba's swords struck him cleanly, hitting his body and lightly scratching him.

Raze then came from behind once again, with his sword covered in lightning. He swung it down and it missed Murkel.

'He's fast, faster than me... even with me reaching the middle stage, he is a top middle stage warrior after all! Raze thought.

However, his sword ignited with lightning magic, it sparked and a spark went off from the side zapping Murkel's body, scorching part of his body and his skin.

I'll just have to follow up with a faster attack! Raze thought, as he used his Ice magic again,

lifting two pillars thick in size one in front and one behind Murkel.

Raze quickly placed his sword by his side and started to gather his Qi.

"Dark Pulse, fourth formation!"

The magic and Qi exploded from the hilt of the sword and Raze accelerated forward with his sword ready to pierce right through Murkel. However, Raze's sword looked to have overextended.

In his position, he could see nothing in front of him and his attack had continued going forward, destroying part of the arena, yet there was no one in front of him.

'I wasn't fast enough, he managed to dodge that? Raze thought, turning his head.

As he did, he could see Murkel with his Dark black fists ready to jump on Raze. There were others close and ready to attack him, but they would be too slow.

Murkel had decided he could take a few hits if he was to get rid of the Dark Magus individual, the most troublesome out of the group.

Raze couldn't do anything in this situation, he had to take the hit. With his Blazer and his own Qi, he was confident it wouldn't finish him off.

'I'll use some of my wind magic as well to push him back as much as possible!' Coming in right between the two of them though, was a large man in black armor carrying a very special shield. Ile calmly stood in front of the Dark Magus and confidently held his shield. The fist exploded, hitting the shield, and at the same time, it started to light up.

"Rebound time." Tilon said with a smile.

When the shield lit up, it blasted a large amount of energy right back at Murkel, sending him flying away. Unfortunately, the others that were behind him had also been hit.

All of them went flying off in different directions and tumbled against the ground.

"Ah crap." Tilon said. "They can't be mad at me though, right? I mean, I need to protect the Dark Magus."

Raze was pleased with the result and even looked at the shield that Tilon was holding; it was still in perfect condition.

"Damn it!" Alba said as she lifted herself up, her body more sore than it was before. She had taken a lot of hits in the fight, and most of them Qi hits, damaging the inside of her body.

Her grip was weakening on her weapons, but she was thankful to see Tilon. She just wondered why he didn't store the energy instead, and blocked the attack rather than using the rebound and wondered if it was on purpose.

Raze observing the situation also noticed though, that Murkel wasn't very hurt by the attacks before, made by the others or the magic that hit him.

"I'm going to need to ask you all for a favor again." Raze said in a booming voice. "Keep the man busy for 20 seconds, and then get out of the way"
