Chapter 236: 236 Blood Pool_1

Translator: 549690339

Boom!

Blood splattered and stones flew drillarily.

However, the blood wasn’t Colin’s, but it was brought out from the blood pool by the Armor-clad person.

The instant Sword Cut barely missed as Colin retreated rapidly from the preliminary strike from the Armor Knight.

At the same time, he recognized the power used by his adversary. It was the Holy Light, meaning his opponent was also a Knight.

The armored Knight was quick to recover from his miss, he closed in once again – this time, directing his aim towards Colin’s throat.

Colin remained calm, having determined from earlier actions that this Armored Knight was of the fourth-order.

Even though Colin himself was a fourth-order Knight, as a “real body” he was not easily matched by a typical fourth-order Knight.

Clang!

Colin crossed his arms rapidly in front of him to block the attack, his skin radiating a turbulence of energy as the blood patterns appeared to come alive.

The Knight’s sword struck his skin and left barely perceptible light marks.

Boom!

A flash of dark gold suddenly lit up the stone cave.

Colin’s bat-like wings spread out, shadowing over the Armored Knight as if he was about to take flight.

Crack.

A bone-chilling sound echoed through the air as the Armored Knight’s right arm was cleanly severed.

However, even after such a substantial injury, the Armored Knight did not utter a sound, as if he didn’t feel any pain at all.

Through the holes in his Armour, his lifeless blood-red eyes gazed at Colin – devoid of any human emotion or rationale.

Meanwhile, the Armor-clad Knight quickly retreated, seemingly aware that he was no match for Colin, and attempted to return back into the Blood Pool.

“You think you can just run?”

Colin sneered, his wings fluttered with force, and a tide of air currents surged forth. Like lightning, he sprang towards the Armored Knight, his hands crossed like shears, aiming for the Knight’s skull.

But just at this moment, the Blood Pool exploded once again.

Boom!

Leaping out from bloody outburst, a massive red figure charged towards Colin, with a White Gigantic Shield on its hand.

The figure that appeared this time was over four meters tall, almost matching Colin’s size when transformed. It rushed forward like a colossal tank, bearing an unstoppable momentum.

Colin instinctively felt danger, letting go of the Knight in front of him, and boldly leapt backwards with aid of his bat-like wings.

Rumble!

The stone ground exploded instantly, as if witnessing a volcanic eruption, the enormous force making the whole cave shudder.

Boulders and stones explode and scatter like bullets, impacting Colin’s body, leaving several visible bruises.

This gigantic Shield-clad Armor Knight was of the fifth order!

Taking advantage of this moment, the original Armor Knight dived back into the blood pool, disappearing from sight.

Before Colin could regain his footing, the newly appeared Armor Knight pulled out a white long spear from behind the gigantic Shield.

The spearhead suddenly lit up in blood-red color.

Hiss hiss hiss.

Streams of blood suddenly spurted out from the blood pool, converging towards the spearhead.

The whole long spear turned red in the blink of an eye, the eerie blood glow flowed on its surface, giving the impression as if it were made of fresh blood.

An indescribable aura rapidly diffused through the cave, the heart-pounding pressure instantly filled the entire space.

Colin’s pupils constricted slightly, sensing an underlying danger.

The room suddenly boomed with an unknown chant.

Colin’s heart filled with dread. Not having time to think, he stimulated the blood energy in his body and his bat wings flapped violently.

Swish!

The bloody long spear lunged forward like lightning.

A circle of blood-red halo dispersed like a ripple, instantly spreading into the surrounding space.

Wherever the halo reached, everything was split in two.

Colin was still in mid-air when suddenly lines of blood appeared on his body, as if he were being lacerated by countless tiny blades.

Boom!

Colin was sent flying, crashing loudly against the wall of the cave.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

The knight in armor, holding a gigantic shield and a long spear, was moving like a charging tank, swiftly advancing towards Colin.

The heavy footsteps made the entire cave tremble.

Without thinking, Colin flapped his wings and dashed towards the tunnel from which he had come.

The narrow terrain here did not allow him to utilise his mobility advantage. Moreover, the mysterious blood pool seemed to enhance the armor-clad knight’s strength. Colin, naturally, wanted to shift the battlefield.

The knight in armor watched Colin flee and let out an inhuman, strange, piercing cry, then followed Colin into the tunnel.

When the footsteps of the two became distant, tranquility returned to the cave.

The “blood slaves” in the “cocoons” above the blood pool seemed to wriggle slightly, letting out faint groans.

Plop.

The armored knight who had emerged from the blood pool first reappeared at the surface among the surges of bloody water.

He quietly picked up his severed arm that had fallen off, attached it back to his body, as if he thought that it would regenerate.

Then he dazedly walked back to the blood pool and slowly sank back into it.

Outside the clock tower, more and more guards of the Morrison family had gathered, but they were all blocked by a group of mysterious figures shrouded in armor, unable to get any closer to the clock tower.

Not far away, Franco Morrison sat in his wheelchair, watching the battle unfold before him with a frown. In a deep voice, he asked, “Is that big guy a Tier-5?”

“Yes,” the maid pushing the wheelchair nodded and added, “and he is a Tier-5 Samurai.”

A troll samurai?” Franco’s frown deepened. “How did they end up at Phoenix Butterfly Fort?”

No response came from behind. Apparently, the maid didn’t know how to answer this question either.

This group of invaders were all professionals. If they wanted to infiltrate Floral City stealthily, it would not be difficult.

After another observation, Franco decisively gave an order, “Notify Saken, forget about the fire up front and bring his team to the clock tower immediately!”

“Yes.”

The maid was about to walk away when she heard Franco add, “Also, have him gather the City Defense Force to surround Phoenix Butterfly Fort. These enemies might not be easy to deal with!”

“Yes.”

At that moment, the side wall of the clock tower collapsed with a thunderous noise. A massive figure stormed out.

Immediately following it, another bloody figure chased after it.

However, upon leaving the confines of the clock tower, Colin, having no spatial restrictions, flapped his wings and shot up towards the sky, leaving behind the knight in armor with his gigantic shield and spear, roaring helplessly into the sky.

“What in the world is that!” Franco was taken aback.

Phoenix Butterfly Fort had been peaceful for over a hundred years. Why would such an intruding group appear all of a sudden?

Colin hovered in the air, looking down at the bloody shadow guards fighting fiercely with the guards of the Morrison family, then again at the Phoenix Butterfly Fort guards gathering in the distance. He knew that today’s reconnaissance had to end here.

Otherwise, more guards would gather, and even the City Defense Force might be mobilized, making it difficult for them to escape.

Although he didn’t fully understand what the Morrison family was doing in the secret place under the clock tower, he at least knew that there was a big problem with the Morrison family.

His primary goal now is to quell the civil unrest in the North Territory and elevate Vera to the seat of Duke. It was not the time for unnecessary complications. Therefore, taking advantage of the Morrison family army’s inability to form a blockade, he immediately issued a retreat order to the Blood Shadow Guards.

At the same time, he too flapped his wings and left.

The blood slaves immediately rushed towards the walls of Phoenix Butterfly Fort under the leadership of Prince Meruvi.

Boom!

The high walls seemed like paper mache under the impact of the prince who was clad in heavy armor, and a large hole was promptly created.

The Blood Shadow Guards followed suit and they quickly disappeared into the pitch-black night.
