Chapter 341: Silver Medal! (Fixed)
Collins sullenly pointed at Tyrion and Nyxa. "The High Rank Sacred Relic has fallen into their hands. We can't let them escape." Their reinforcements had arrived after great difficulty, only to see such unexpected changes to the situation. They were unwilling to withdraw.
"First, we'll have everyone withdraw. Then, the three of us can fight together!"
The Nine Ultra Blade Institute's leaders hesitated. The Bronze Guardian's rampage could get troublesome if they stayed too long.
Collins ground his teeth. "That bastard nearly killed my brother and even dared to use him to threaten me. If you capture them, I can give up on the High Rank Sacred Relic. Just hand that bastard to me!"
The Nine Blade leaders lit up and laughed. "Alright. Since Brother Collins asked us, we'll capture that brat."
Collins cursed inwardly, but only waved his hand in acceptance. The members of their parties began retreating while Collins and the Nine Ultra Blade Institute's two leaders flew forward, towards Tyrion and Nyxa.
Nyxa was the first to sense the three experts bearing malicious intent. The stone hall was already in a state of chaos as the Bronze Guardian continued its massacre and sent everyone fleeing in sorry states. However, not only was Collins not fleeing with them, he was running towards them. It seemed that his hatred for Tyrion was uncontrollable.
"Hmph."
Nyxa wasn't frightened by their attacks in the slightest. With a tightening of her fingers, the Arcanal Dragonized Bracelets on her wrists burst with brilliant lights. Two colossal dragons — one scarlet and one blue dragon — roared and charged with astonishing power, engulfing the three enemies and destroying any remaining pillars in their path.
Now that the Arcanal Dragonized Bracelets had been united, it was clear that the power behind them was several times greater. The sheer strength of the artifact even surprised Tyrion. It was truly worthy of the title of "High Rank Sacred Relic".
"Damn it!"
Collins's face changed when he saw the scarlet dragons rushing towards him with their baleful energy ripples. The three figures stopped and released their Genetic energy without reservation. The three majestic energies whistled out from their bodies and collided with the dragons.
Bang!
Violent waves of Genetic energy swept out. Several unlucky experts retreated while coughing up blood.
The twin dragons roared low and deep as they stopped Collins and the other two.
A look of excitement flashed across Nyxa's face as she observed the might of the Arcanal Dragonized Bracelets. With this artifact, she might even be able to hold her own against a Fiendgod Stage Initial Phase expert. Again, this High Rank Sacred Relic was befitting of its title.
Tyrion couldn't help clucking his tongue either. Even he might not win against Nyxa while she had those bracelets — if he didn't pull any powerful tricks.
But now that the Arcanal Dragonized Bracelet belonged to Nyxa, Tyrion no longer coveted it. Either way, Tyrion refused to believe that there was only one High Rank Sacred Relic left behind in this Overlord Sacred dimensional relics.
"BOOM!"
Just as Tyrion was sighing at its power, his mind suddenly jumped at the massive explosion. He shifted his gaze towards the Bronze Guardian and noticed that it had suddenly halted its steps. It shifted its empty gaze and stopped on Nyxa, who was still controlling the Arcanal Dragonized Bracelets.
The Arcanal Dragonized Bracelets had been taken from this Bronze Guardian, and it was clear that it could sense the familiar ripples. Even though it didn't possess any intelligence, those ripples were enough to attract it.
Boom!
The Bronze Guardian hugged the huge bronze pillar and suddenly strode forward, charging in Tyrion's direction. It lifted its stone arms and brought the pillar down on Nyxa so quickly that an ear-piercing sonic boom echoed in the chamber.
The shadow of the pillar descended and Tyrion's face changed. He didn't think twice as he pulled Nyxa and tapped his feet on the ground to retreat.
Stay connected with m v l e mpyr
BANG!
The bronze pillar smashed into the spot where they'd just been standing and cracks spiderwebbed from the ground. Tyrion's scalp tingled. Even he'd be heavily injured if he took that one full-on.
This Bronze Guardian definitely wasn't weak. Probably only a real Fiendgod Stage expert would be able to confront it.
"Release me."
A cold voice sounded in Tyrion's ear and interrupted his thoughts. He looked down at the sexy ice queen in his arms and saw that those icy-cold eyes were filled with humiliation and anger.
"Those were pressing circumstances. Pressing circumstances." Tyrion dryly explained with a chuckle, but still set her down. Nyxa seemed to have something against those of the opposite sex. But there was no way Tyrion could've bothered over such small details earlier.
Nyxa also knew that Tyrion hadn't tried to take advantage of her on purpose, so she didn't hang on to it. She only gave him a warning glare before she turned her attention back towards the Bronze Guardian. When its attack had landed a miss, it'd lifted the bronze pillar again to slam it down on Collins and other two who were closer.
The three of them didn't dare to take the attack and rapidly retreated. They sorrily and only narrowly dodged the guardian's attack.
"Let's leave now." Tyrion said to Nyxa. Suddenly, he furrowed his brows and a silver medal appeared in its hand. The medal had been engraved with the image of a white dragon — the one that he'd taken from the body of the King Flame-forged python back in the magma lake. For some reason, the medal was currently heating up.
"What's going on?"
Tyrion was temporarily confused by the changes he sensed in the silver medal. However, he only furrowed his brows and tucked it back into his sleeves. This was no time to ponder over it.
He didn't notice that when he brought out the silver medal, the bronze statue had frozen for a brief moment before it'd turned around. He only saw it running towards him, rumbling as it moved.
"Quick, run!"
Tyrion's expression changed as he called out to Nyxa and retreated. In just a few moments, he was already out of the ruined stone hall and moving faster with Nyxa beside him.
However, the Bronze Guardian didn't seem like it intended to give up, even as they moved further away. Its bloodthirsty energy ripple surged.
Collins and the other two sighed in relief when they saw that the Bronze Guardian had given up on them.
The two leaders of the Nine Ultra Blade Institute gasped for breath. The two of them had nearly been ground into fresh meat, and weren't anxious to try again. "Brother Collins, that Bronze Guardian was too powerful. It'd be hard for us to destroy it and won't be easy for us to escape from it. I think we should let it go.
That bronze statue has its eye on that brat for some reason, so he's already as good as dead."
Collins hesitated as well, before he nodded helplessly. "Then we'll let him go. We'll reorganise our experts and head deeper into the palace. I believe there should be better treasures in there. As long as we are allies, I believe that we can even contend with the three major forces."
"Alright!"
The two leaders of the Nine Ultra Blade Institute immediately agreed. They left the ruined stone hall as a group to gather their men, then immediately headed towards the depths of the Sacred dimensional relics.
In another location, Tyrion's face was ugly as he knew that the Bronze Guardian had targeted them. It didn't matter where they ran to, the Bronze Guardian was always close behind.
"Tyrion, what's going on?" Nyxa's face changed as well, why was the Bronze Guardian targeting them?
Tyrion thought for a bit, then said, "It looks like it's coming after me. Let's separate."
"Alright. I'll be right behind you." Nyxa nodded and quickly turned towards another direction.
The bronze statue simply ignored Nyxa and her Arcanal Dragonized Bracelets in favor of chasing after Tyrion.
"Damn it."
Tyrion angrily cursed. This thing really was after him. But why? He'd never fought with it, and he didn't have the Arcanal Dragonized Bracelets.
"What's going on?"
Tyrion furrowed his brows as ideas flickered through his mind. A moment later, those thoughts clicked into place and he clenched his fist. The silver medal with the white dragon appeared back in his hand.
A light flashed through his eyes as he looked at the heated silver medal. He seemed to have understood something.
So this silver medal was the thing attracting the Bronze Guardian?
Rumble!
The ground trembled as the ancient bronze statue charged onward with heavy steps. Any obstacles in its path were instantly crushed as it left a trail of pandemonium in its wake.
Those who happened upon the scene quickly withdrew from it. No one dared to get in the statue's path, so they simply allowed the strange duo to speed on their way.
A pitch-black flame and blue lightning energy blazed out from within Tyrion's body and shrouded him. He kept his pace as something flickered in his eyes and the silver medal in his hand grew even warmer.
With a few tests, Tyrion had confirmed that the ancient bronze statue was, indeed, after him. And it was definitely because of this silver medal.
