Chapter 341 Battle For Spring Realm (4)
Isaac reached the end of the dark path and saw the next room. The room was filled with Knight Statues, and the ground was again covered by brown and white tiles.
Each Knight was grabbing the hilt of their stone sword, and at first glance, they didn't show any sign of life.
''Hmm, this seems simple.'' Isaac thought aloud and stepped forth. Once his foot touched the brown title, the room began shaking!
Rumble!
Grains of sands seeped through the rocky walls, and the Knights began moving.
Crack!
Their rusty joints made a loud crack sound. Every Knight Statue moved their limbs roughly and destroyed the rocky layer that enveloped them.
Soon, the Knight Statues looked more human-like. Each one had stone gray eyes with a chest moving up and down like they were actually breathing.
Their stone gray eyes turned toward pale-looking Isaac.
Crack!
They unsheathed their stone swords that had a blade made of steel!
Isaac counted all the Knights and reached the count of 9. He gulped and pulled his foot back, but that didn't do anything.
The Knights began moving straight toward him. They all had different grips on the hilts, and once they reached optimal attacking range, they swung their swords!
Isaac put his hand forward and tried to pull his gun from the inventory. But then, an invisible wall stopped him from taking it.
His eyes widened in shock, 'Weapons aren't allowed to be used?!'
Tap! Tap!
From the dark, King Jonathan appeared with a sword in his hand. He swung the blade toward the stone Knight, but then the sword disappeared from his hand, and he became unarmed!
His eyes widened in a shock, and he saw the shadow of Knight Statue's sword shadowing over him.
Isaac moved his body to the side. The sword brushed past his cheek and made a small scratch on his thigh.
King Jonathan leaped to the side. The Knight's sword destroyed the ground effortlessly like he was cutting molten butter.
Isaac dodged another sword while his mind was running in overdrive. He understood that he had to somehow cross the room and reach the other side to complete the test. However, the question was how!
There was no path to take. The large bodies of Knights blocked every direction, and jumping over them was basically a suicide.
''Wraith!'' King Jonathan's voice came near him. Isaac turned his head and saw the blond-haired Knight weaving through the deadly sword strikes.
''Yeah?'' Isaac asked and took a step back. Only a second later, a sword bombed his previous spot.
''Do you have a skill that would help you pass this test?!'' He asked and leaped across the Knight that was almost able to hit him. However, while airborne, he was an easy target and was attacked by two other Knights.
Then, he crossed his arms into an X-formation, and an illusionary wall materialized in front of him.
[Golden Wall Used!]
The swords couldn't pierce through the wall, allowing King Jonathan to safely land on the ground. When he looked around him, he found himself surrounded by four Knight Statues, but there was a small gap where he could see the end of the room!
''Yes!'' Isaac's voice came from the start of the room. He could not take a single step in the room, instead was being pushed back.
King Jonathan gritted his teeth and dodged two horizontal slashes by bending his body down. There was a limit to how long he could keep avoiding, and that limit was nearing!
''Can you do it?! The only way to pass this test is to rush toward the end of the room simultaneously!''
Isaac pondered for a second and thought it would make sense. Trying to pass alone was a suicide.
He nodded and saw two Knights approaching him. Isaac narrowed his eyes and could barely see King Jonathan surrounded by Knights, and it was a miracle that he was still alive.
''Whew… Let's do this!'' Isaac's gray eyes began changing. A star pattern appeared on his pupils, and his body began to emit tiny light particles.
[Marksman of Space Used!]
The two Knights swung their swords. But, they went straight through Isaac's illusionary figure as he suddenly disappeared!
In the ceiling of the room, light particles began forming an illusionary human, who soon began to have flesh!
A second later, Isaac's body appeared among the light particles. He was right above the Knights!
His Marksman of Space allows him to barely teleport five meters, which already makes him exhausted.
[Cooldown Begins!]
[0:59…]
There was also a one-minute countdown.
The Knight sensed him and rotated around to look at the flying white-haired youth.
King Jonathan saw this as a chance and began to emit a golden light, ''Raah!''
[Golden Rush!]
Boom!
His glowing figure moved across the room and crashed straight through the Knight that stood in his path. Once the glowing began dimming down, his speed decreased until he was running at an average pace.
There was no one in front of him, and the end of the room was only three meters away!
Then, a white-haired youth landed right next to him. They nodded at each other and ran to the end of the room. Soon, they took their final steps, and the Knights following them stopped moving.
A thick layer of rock wrapped them. They returned to their previous state, and it seemed like they were nothing but a nightmare.
''Haahhh…'' King Jonathan hadn't felt this exhausted in ages.
Isaac looked away from the Knights and saw a dimly lit path. He patted his chest and began running.
King Jonathan watched as he ran away and sighed, 'Have I gotten old? How come his stamina is so crazy.'
He caught his breath and began to run after the white-haired youth.
While running toward the third room, they heard the sound of rock breaking. King Jonathan turned around and saw his Guild members about to face the Knights. He would love to help them, but even he barely survived.
Soon, they reached the end of the dimly lit path and came across a room that looked relatively simple. There weren't a-holes in the ceiling or statues. Instead, there were brown and white-colored tiles.
At the end of the room was a large granite door. It was almost as big as the God Zephyros' Statue.
