Chapter 242: Chapter 242: What kind of victory is this?
The children of the fourth generation all possessed Developing Skills. They had grown up during the era when the Blackwoods were fugitives, always with Nicholas, who was once timid and pampered.
That little boy truly became a real man of the Blackwood family, yet the last memory they had of him was still that of a child.
No one knew better than they did how difficult it was to live in exile.
Nicholas's kneeling before Luke, that moment on the city walls, had given them a peaceful thirty years. Only now did they truly appreciate how precious those thirty years had been.
"Show what you're capable of, let Nicholas see that we are proud of him, that we haven't wasted these thirty years!"
"Annihilate the druids!"
"Let their blood be a tribute to Nicholas!"
Fight, fight, fight!!!
George, William, and Justin would usually be laughing in battle. But now, these three shameless guys had serious expressions. They exchanged glances and charged at an enemy in the mid-stage of Competent Force.
"Boom!"
The elder from their family appeared on George's body and engaged the enemy directly. Justin moved around the perimeter, occasionally getting knocked back only to return stronger each time.
William stood in the distance, various Psychic Gear and ability weapons appearing around him, resembling a venomous snake. Over the years, the only reasons he stayed with the family were his elder brother and the Forebearer.
Now, as he watched his kin fighting all around, he seemed to understand that it wasn't just his brother and the Forebearer who cared about him. Perhaps everyone in the family was silently contributing, just like Nicholas, who silently stood in front of everyone, shielding him as well.
These guys, one day in the future, might not care that he was a black sheep, or about the many wrongs he had done. They would stand with him without hesitation.
"A bunch of... fools."
[Your descendant William, feeling the deepest hidden emotions among his kin, has gained the trait: Hidden Guardian]
[Like Nicholas, he is willing to remain hidden at the heart of the family, eliminating all enemies for them. When killing for the family, his strength increases by 20%, and he becomes more ferocious.]
Strength is growing, growing!
William found his opportunity, hundreds of Psychic Gear, ability weapons, and even totems from the druids flew towards the Competent Force expert, then, explosion!
...
Fight to the death, relentless battle!
Ethan watched the family's fight, all the descendants united like never before, fighting desperately!
And the reason for all this was not just the widespread 'Family Will' skill, but also Nicholas leading them into the future.
In this battle, many family members, like William and the two young monks, were awakening their traits.
Thirty years ago.
All the descendants acknowledged their weakness, but now, they finally faced the entire Clark tribe with the posture of the strong, and they crushed them!
The sky was also a battlefield.
It had been an hour, and there was High Priest Luke, as a tribal leader, he possessed the peak strength of Competent Force. With his own power, he calmly faced many experts from the Blackwood family!
Then.
Despair descended!
"Whoosh"
[Activating skill—Fight, dear Forebearer!]
[Your current strength has reached the early stage of Competent Force, possessing the power of rules, descending into the game world requires consuming family will: 3]
[Descend?]
"Yes!"
In the sky, the Forebearer's Psychic Position formed a family emblem, its golden light shining in front of Luke, making him cautiously step back, black mist emerging, the Twin Fish Harmony Seal enveloping all directions!
"Forebearer!"
The Blackwood people were shaken, after thirty years, the Forebearer descended again to fight alongside them!
...
"Whoosh—"
A gust of wind surged, Ethan descended into this world again, looking around, the Blackwood children were fighting on the ground, he could hear their battle cries.
Originally today... among these fighting children, Nicholas would have been present.
Suddenly.
Ethan's eyes focused on the retreating Luke, his deep voice resonating in the sky, "Capture him alive."
As soon as he spoke, Ethan's Twin Fish Harmony Seal spun, already showing on the spot, appearing in front of Luke, his body of black mist, carrying the power of the five elements, the sun, moon, and stars!
"Yes!"
The Blackwood people nodded slightly, they didn't have the ecstasy they had when the Forebearer appeared before, they knew, the Forebearer's mood was as heavy as theirs now!
"Hahaha, think you can capture me alive? Ridiculous!"
Another hour later.
The Blackwood descendants stood on Nathan's coffin, their Forebearer had already begun to disappear.
Clark's High Priest Luke, desperately knelt behind the Blackwood people.
The Death Coffin moved towards the Blackwood direction.
"Why... why?!!"
Before the battle, he told Nathan, their Clark tribe had no cowards, but he saw, one by one, Clark's people began to flee. Even their Competent Force mid-stage priest fled in front of the three young Blackwoods.
Clark originally had the strength to fight, but in the face of the Blackwood people's frenzy, Clark only lasted less than half an hour before disintegrating, fleeing for themselves.
They looked like the real cowards!
Even he...
After the Blackwood Forebearer appeared, he also experienced true despair, that Blackwood ancestor had complete mastery of the five elements within the Twin Fish Harmony Seal, containing the sun, moon, and stars, invisible within the Twin Fish Harmony Seal, especially that spear capable of breaking all laws, could also dispel the natural energy of the world.
Five minutes, if the opponent hadn't intended not to kill him, he would have probably died long ago.
Until the opponent left.
Nathan's boundless Sea of Death, Luna's Six-Tailed Fox form, Lucas's Sword Intent domain, and Amelia's summoned Divine Tree slowly surrounded him in the sky with two dragon serpents, three zombies, and several younger family members.
He thought about running, but escape was impossible.
Where Clark stood, Mount Jade crumbled, stained with blood, dust filling the sky. Rising to the heavens was the fierce pride of Nicholas and the Blackwoods. What collapsed was their so-called Druidic honor and courage.
On the screen, Ethan quietly watched it all unfold.
[Congratulations, your descendants have completely destroyed the Clarks!]
[Before he left, your descendant Nicholas, in the name of the ancient Blackwood ancestor Nathan, had the Cloudrise Oceanview Pavilion send letters to every county and major power throughout the Emerald Empire. He let everyone in the Emerald Empire know that thirty years ago, a traitor emerged from the Blackwoods, and his name was Nicholas.]
[He told everyone in the Emerald Empire that all the Blackwoods were furious about his betrayal and fled the family. Until today, thirty years later, the Blackwoods had gathered enough strength to righteously annihilate their kin, breaking the entire Clark clan in one fell swoop.]
[Your family has cleared the name of 'human race traitor' and remains the proud 'Azure Cloud Warriors.' The entire Emerald Empire is celebrating this rare victory for Cloudview County.]
[Gain +5 Family Will]
"What kind of victory is this? What kind of celebration?"
Ethan clenched his teeth, his fists tight, until all that was left was a sigh.
