Chapter 686 - Going To Save Doaf
Chapter 686 - Going To Save Doaf
Artur didn't evade the five as he moved with his speed, flying right and left, up and down. This way he kept preventing them from gathering up at him in one group, or else he wouldn't be able to handle any of them.
"You'll die here!" one shouted while waving his sword directly towards him.
Arthur didn't move his sword to meet him as he simply stretched his wings for one second there, rose up all of sudden and crossed over the heads of two more before he arched his wings and landed like a rocket towards the last two.
One with a thick club in hand and the other held a sword.
His move was expected so that the club mage moved it towards him, aiming to crush his head.
Yet at the last minute Arthur shifted his body to the side, barely evading the mark while cutting through his body with his sword before landing a blow over the last one's sword.
He didn't continue clashing with that one more than this hit that made his enemy retreat a couple of meters while he also retreated.
And he let his body retreat without stopping it before turning around and hitting that mage directly at his back.
The mage moved his club to stop his sword, yet he managed to leave a wound there.
"Surround him," one of them shouted in anger while Arthur didn't plan to be surrounded this easily.
At least he would accompany these two and keep his sword flashing right and left, preventing them from any retreat.
"Let's kill him directly then," as the two couldn't retreat, the other three formed a triangle around the two and Arthur in between before they moved fast to help their friends.
And Arthur next feigned a retreat move to the sky above, making the two around him move before he suddenly let his body fall.
"I'll take your legs with me at least," he roared before waving his sword to injure the two mage's legs as he circled around before finally falling down.
He flapped his wings and started to move fast while being hunted by those angry five dark mages.
``We are ready to retreat,' Gege suddenly said and Arthur noticed the presence of many portals enough for everyone to retreat.
"Let's do it," he said.
'Should I open yours now?'
"Mine?" Arthur evilly sneered before adding, "Let me dance a bit with those folks, hopefully their numbers might get bigger."
Gege didn't get his meaning at once but once she read his mind she understood everything. 'Alright, I'll make the needed preparations,' she said while he only nodded.
The next five minutes the entire army of his retreated through the portals around them before the portals vanished in thin air like they appeared.
And Arthur was left all alone while being hunted now with over two thousand of those mages in extreme fury.
'Now?' Gege asked.
"How many can we hunt?"
'Hmm… at least half,' she said after a moment of pause.
"Alright, start!"
The next moment and while everyone was focused on him, a large number of portals appeared and the mecha army appeared once again.
This time they were all in full number, ready and prepared with their strongest attacks.
Once appeared, and before anyone could see them a large number of attacks started to hit the large flying army before Arthur finally vanished in one portal alongside them.
And he even didn't leave like that but Gege opened hundreds of portals all of sudden in front of the rapidly advancing mages.
Those with extreme vigilance managed to react barely in time, while many fell in the trap, passing directly through the portals and appearing next inside specific areas inside the garden world.
Deep grooves, thrown in the middle of siege weapons made by Agnus, or even thrown into pillar prisons… they were all scattered in very disadvantageous situations where their chances of keeping their lives were nil.
And a massacre erupted taking the lives of over five hundred dark mages without any resistance at all.
"What about Doaf?"
Amera appeared next in front of Arthur while her face showed how angry she was.
"We'll move out now," Arthur said before the next moment a portal was opened and he added, "but I'll go alone for now. Be ready to move at any time."
"Watch out," she shouted before he vanished behind the portal, "they are strong and cunning."
Arthur appeared over the large army that was nothing but a decoy. "Which way?" he didn't hesitate to ask and Gege instantly answered.
``Go to your right, for two hundred miles then you should go straight forward,'' she said before hurriedly warning, ``the elite forces are already here, they are now midway to the location of the last fight.'
"Good," Arthur didn't delay to move fast while adding, "I hope they keep coming at me."
'Ding! Aiming to use that trick again?' the system asked.
"It's an effective one to be honest," Arthur said while he was already tempted to use it.
'Ding! But I doubt they would fall twice,' the system warned, 'Ding! After all, their leaders are so cunning.'
"Their leaders aren't here," Arthur argued, "and now they are agitated and angry by their humiliated loss. They will be easy prey to hunt, you'll see."
'Ding! I hope so.'
Arthur kept his speed while he went straight towards the direction Gege directed him to. As he got nearer to Doaf, he kept asking about him, the forces chasing him, the main army, the flying army, and the current state of the sect and their injured people.
And all answers were in the hand of Gege.
'Doaf and his forces are being cornered now,' Gege said, 'but I can't tell if he was fighting those strange forces now or he is just on the run.'
"Let's believe he is too strong for them to clash on," Arthur muttered while trying to maintain high hopes here.
'But I still can't understand… how can they be hidden from tree surveillance?'
"This…" Arthur didn't have any answer on that as he was puzzled by this. "Let's assume they have the means to obscure what the tree can see."
'Ding! But this possibility means they can have any army drawing near without us knowing that!'
'Or their army is much bigger and far stronger than we know.'
Arthur thought about this for a moment before saying. "I want Amera, the crow, and their forces to be interrogated," he said before adding, "this will be your task."
'Ding! Leave it to me,' the system knew he was the one meant by his words as Gege was already overwhelmed with tasks.
"What about others?" Arthur asked, knowing that the most dangerous group isn't the main army, but those flying ones coming fast towards the sect while he was still busy here.
