Yulia suddenly shouted behind them.
No one knows when she arrived but she just appeared wearing a white robe and a white veil covering her face. Most of them thought that she was in Nidite City so Lar and Ross were a bit surprised…
Anyway, it wasn't time to think about why she was here…
'That's a Totemic Barbarian?' Lar repeated in his mind as he looked at the armored barbarian.
He didn't expect that Yulia can recognize the enemy even with full armor. They can't see any tattoo marks from it after all.
He then tried using probing skills but it didn't work.
If that's the case, he can only conclude that Yulia was indeed telling the truth…
'Their leader is actually an armored Totemic Barbarian… I didn't expect that. But what's bothering me is that they haven't sent a single Barbarian King yet… How suspicious.' Lar thought
Everyone knows that there should be more Barbarian Kings than Totemic ones. However, the numbers are not adding up so he found this really unusual.
He felt that the Totemic Barbarians have become disposable in the Barbarian Race which shouldn't be the case considering how strong they are.
Of course, while it's true that it's just another Totemic Barbarian, the armor and the axe that it was carrying were giving them goosebumps…
They seem to be legendary items that could affect their minds.
Roaarrr!
This armored barbarian roared with all its might! He was then followed by the other barbarians as they tried to intimidate them.
It seems like they were just being noisy but just like what they did to Shane and Brycen, the roar contained Bloodlust that would make the Magic Knights weak!
Shane and Brycen were prepared for this but it was already too late for the Magic Knights…
"We need to use a strong Fusion Art to stop them! Hurry!" Shane shouted as he was worried that the magic knights would be stunned and get trampled by the barbarians. They need to do something about it.
Brycen was thinking the same thing as they showed their might as multi casters, they cast several mana arts and created havoc in the midst of the barbarians…
Boom! Boom! Boom!
A wall of fire was made and the ground's elevation was even disrupted…
It stopped the barbarians' advance but certainly not enough to hold off thousands of them at once.
Nevertheless, their worry was for naught as the soldiers' emblem that has the engraved insignia of Vera City suddenly lit up and gave warm light to their bodies…
It is the emblems' passive skill, Status Ailment Reduction!
With this passive ability, the barbarians' stunning roar was almost neutralized. Although the Bloodlust was still present in their bodies, they were able to circulate their mana to try and suppress it.
As for removing the Bloodlust in their bodies, it's not an urgent thing and they can do it later on as long as it doesn't greatly affect their movement. Suppressing it should be more than enough for a short period.
Thanks to this emblem, the soldiers were able to move again and continue fighting against the Barbarians…
"Piercing Flame Swords… Now!"
Lar ordered as every one of them used the same sword technique. Since Shane and Brycen created a firewall for them, their Piercing Flame Sword had become even more dangerous.
The Barbarians saw hundreds of swords that are covered in flame trying to reach their throats! It even looked beautiful from another perspective but these swords are aiming for their life…
Some of them raised their weapons to block and some of them dodged the swords to counterattack.
However, to their surprise, the Piercing Flame Swords weren't actually iron swords covered with flames… They were just an extension of their swords that doubled their length!
Even after blocking or dodging them, the real swords still managed to stab them. It was such a tricky move and it was successful!
Some were pierced in their throats and some lucky ones were able to redirect the strikes on their chest or shoulders. Nevertheless, the soldiers weren't finished yet as they continued with their assault…
Whoosh!
Suddenly, as the Barbarians and the soldiers were clashing, a lone figure wearing a white robe like a heavenly being treaded through the air and arrived in front of the armored Totemic Barbarian!
"Hey! Isn't that dangerous?!" Shane couldn't help but worry about the beautiful lady just now.
Brycen felt the same way as he wanted to rush over and assist her at the very least. Even if she can fight the armored barbarians, she was still surrounded by many enemies and she at least needs someone who can guard her back.
However, before he can make his move to help and protect her, they saw her wave her hand in front of the large barbarian and a black energy started creeping up on his body!
Shane can tell that it's not an energy similar to Aether but it feels like some sort of elemental mana art…
"What? Did she just use the Darkness Energy?" Brycen was shocked as soon as he what Yulia did.
It's extremely rare for a Mana Practitioner to learn Darkness and Light Element. All of these people were recorded in the tower. However, as far as they know, no one at her age should be capable of using this element.
"Now that you say it… It's indeed Darkness Element… I didn't expect Vincent to have a subordinate at this level." Shane commented filled with envy.
Anyone that can use this element is extremely valuable. Once they started learning those nasty Tier 5 Darkness Arts that he heard about, they can probably fight against the two or three Paragons at the same time.
Mana Practitioners who are capable of manipulating the Element of Darkness may be considered weak during their introductory stage but once they have matured and learned all their advanced techniques, they were a force to be reckoned with.
"We'll help the beautiful white lady! Continue with your advance!" Shane shouted to Lar who seemed to be worried about the lady.
Lar immediately heaved a sigh of relief as soon as he saw Shane and Brycen flying over to her side.
"Just hold on! We will get there as quickly as possible!"
