Chapter 731 Suppressing Nixlas' Shadows
??A minute after Vicente's group arrived in front of the entrance to Nixlas' Shadows' headquarters, several Paragons appeared near the castle entrance.",
Fifteen Low-level Paragons appeared in front of the bridge connecting the castle hill and the other side of the red liquid moat.
Five Mid-level Paragons appeared at the top of the wall, where a High-level Paragon appeared to take charge of the situation.
Vicente and his group didn't attack immediately. They weren't looking for a lot of conversation, but they also didn't think it was appropriate to attack the place without knowing Lauren's situation.
Between 12 and 13 years had passed since her kidnapping. Vicente wasn't sure how strong she had become or whether she was alive. But if Lauren was alive and wasn't strong enough to deal with the consequences of a battle like the one he intended to start, he'd rather secure her situation first.
He stopped in front of his group, while the High-level Paragon in front of the men on guard sensed that this group was in trouble and signaled for his men to get ready.
The 20 Paragons, besides the strongest man in the area at the moment, moved their mana, causing pentagrams to appear around their bodies, wreaking havoc on the free mana in the air.
The fellow Sovereigns in Vicente's group did the same, each showing their above-average pentagram configurations, with the first essence evolved to orange grade.
The High-level Paragon looked Vicente in the eye and said with a terrible expression on his face. "I don't know who you are, but it's bold of you to come to our door with such petulance. Reveal your motives, or we'll put a stop to this immediately!"
Vicente walked ahead of his companions, acting as if all those Paragons were no big deal.
He opened his mouth to speak, as his pentagrams appeared one by one. "I say the same. I don't know who you are, but obey me and bring Lauren Fuller to me. Otherwise, I'm afraid you'll all be dead in a few moments."
The 21 Paragons looked at Vicente with more and more terrified expressions, seeing and feeling the terrifying power of someone with two green pentagrams and three cyan pentagrams!
Vicente was only a Low-level Paragon. But his aura, compared to that of the 5th stage experts in the area, looked much more like the aura of a Beginner Archmage!
"What?" The High-level Paragon opened his mouth at the sight of the monster standing in front of him, while the robotic armor of Vicente's companions showed through, demonstrating that the five Sovereigns there wouldn't be fighting as 4th stage magicians, but as 5th stage beings.
The leader of the 20 Paragons at the Nixlas' Shadows entrance post sent a warning to the sect leader, identifying that his group wouldn't be able to stop the person in front of the group of Light Path magicians.
But he tried to buy time. "I didn't imagine that a prodigy like you would show up on our doorstep. I'm sorry for my behavior, hehe. Anyway, Lauren Fuller, right? I don't know who this is. Could you help me with some more information? Maybe I can put you in touch with this person."
Vicente looked at the man's face, the only one in the area who wasn't wearing a mask to cover his face. But like the others, the man was dressed in a kind of black armor that mixed bones with the darkness of its wearer's powers.
Each of them wore hoods over their heads, hiding their hair and much of their physical form.
Vicente said nothing more to that High-level Paragon as his fourth pentagram glowed and his physical attributes evolved significantly.
He appeared in front of the High-level Paragon on that wall, with one of his hands trailing towards the neck of the elderly man with skin so thin that he looked like a living mummy.
Simultaneously, all 20 Paragons in the area felt their bodies being immobilized by Vicente's metal control, which had reached a high level capable of placing him above all Paragon magicians.
Just as Vicente was about to grab the neck of the High-level Paragon in front of him, a man appeared on his right side and grabbed his wrist, preventing him from reaching that High-level Paragon.
Simultaneously, four other High-level Paragons appeared in the area.
"Young man, I don't know where you came from, but you're in the wrong place if you think you can demand things here," said the sect master, the first Archmage of the human race that Vicente and his group had seen so close up.
The sect master smiled and added. "You're strong, I see. But in my presence, I fear the continent will lose its greatest genius."
"Is that so?" Vicente looked away, identifying his greatest enemy, the leader of the damned sect that had kidnapped his sister and caused his father's death.
As his five pentagrams showed their power, two new pentagrams emerged from Vicente's body, while the Throne of Darkness appeared along with the mantle and crown of darkness.
"I'm afraid that today you will waste all your efforts to reach the 6th stage. It must have been difficult and time-consuming to reach your level. Too bad you're a fool," as the darkness in the area grew more intense, Vicente said, the Dark Path Paragons unable to comprehend what was happening.
"Kneel!" Vicente said, making all the Paragons there lose control of their bodies, doing exactly what he had ordered.
An aura of suppression arose over that entire hill, making all Dark Path magicians below the 5th stage feel the terrifying aura of their elemental superior.
Even those furthest away from Vicente or in special areas of the sect where they could preserve themselves minimally noticed the changes brought about by his throne, with a few identifying something they had felt in the past, but which was much stronger now.
Gulp!
One sovereign that Lauren had had by her side on her journey south felt the need to prostrate himself, as he feared that terror had chased them.
The sect master was the only one in the whole place not to obey Vicente as he felt all his muscles trembling, unable to stop himself from showing his six pentagrams as he turned away from Vice.
"Fuck! You have two magical forms!" The confident look on the sect master's face was lost, giving way to an apprehensive expression, clearly worried about his position.
Vicente was still no threat to Archmages considering only his first magical form. This gave the master of Nixlas' Shadows the confidence to deal with the young Paragon newly arrived at his headquarters. But with Vice using the Throne of Darkness, and Torne's mana, things were quite different.
Even an Intermediate Archmage of the human race would have trouble facing Vicente now!
The sect master was at the peak of his level, but he was still a Beginner Archmage. He instantly realized that if he wasn't careful, he could lose his life to the monster in front of him.
"Master of the sect, answer me. Where is my sister? Where is Lauren Fuller?" Vicente asked, as Miss Death appeared outside her cultivation area, sensing Vicente's magical fluctuation.
