Chapter 505: Breaking the Array
Jialete and the others led the Noble Allied Forces in a charge through the gates of Miwu City, unfolding a bloody slaughter on the wide streets within the city.
The situation, which had initially looked excellent, changed at the very moment Luoning and Kaierluosi were trapped.
Among the Knight Order of Miwu City, thirty knights had glowing marks on their foreheads flickering; suddenly, dense red patterns emerged on their bodies, as if magma were flowing through countless gullies.
With the activation of the marks, the strength of these thirty people surged; those Silver Knights became comparable to Golden Knights, and the Golden ones became comparable to Meteor Knights...
This was the Flame Seal Knight squad of the Flame Envoy.
In the instant the marks were activated, the battlefield effectively gained one Blazing Sun Knight, three Silver Moon Knights, eight Meteor Knights, and eighteen Golden Knights.
This did not even include Count Wulaer and the three Silver Moon and several Meteor Knights under his command.
Besides this, there were twenty-four Heavenly God Clan members in the air who were at least Silver Grade, as well as a squad composed of over twenty Dragon Hawk knights from Miwu City.
The Noble Allied Forces, originally surging with momentum, were stunned by this sudden situation and were slaughtered in large numbers in an instant.
"Everyone, kill for me!"
"As long as you can survive this battle, you shall be Honorary Knights!"
Count Wulaer roared loudly; regardless of whether such a promise would be kept, the words alone sounded thrilling.
Ruidar had already noticed Luoning being trapped in the air; he soared up, wanting to help Luoning and Kaierluosi break free from the outside.
But before he had gone far, his path was blocked by a tall man bathed in flames.
"Your opponent is me."
Similar to Catherine's status, the person before Ruidar was named Wina, the leader of this group of Flame Seal Knights, who belonged to the founder of the Holy Storm Organization, Lord Flame Wing.
Although his strength was only at the late Silver Moon stage, after activating the Flame Seal, his power, speed, and Battle Qi were not inferior to an average Blazing Sun Knight.
Ruidar's expression was composed, but he felt somewhat anxious inside, wondering if Luoning could escape danger.
Yet, facing a powerful enemy blocking his way, he could only prioritize resolving the situation at hand.
"Kill!"
He circulated the Burning Heaven Secret Canon to purify his Flame Battle Qi; every attack and every Battle Technique had greater power than usual.
Facing Wina, who had boosted his strength through crooked means, it was almost a crushing situation.
However, the opponent did not seem to want to compete for superiority with Ruidar, but rather focused on stalling for time.
Therefore, even though the injuries on Wina's body were gradually becoming more severe, he could still hold on for a while by constantly avoiding direct confrontation and only engaging in harassment.
Meanwhile, the battle in the air.
Radiance gathered in Aruba's palm once again; this time the energy fluctuations were more intense, as if the surrounding air were being distorted by this power.
Luoning felt a chill in his heart; he sensed that the destructive power contained in this attack far exceeded the last one, and it seemed the opponent had abandoned the possibility of capturing him alive and intended to kill him here.
"Kaierluosi, prepare to withstand the coming shock storm."
Luoning issued a warning to the dragon through soul transmission, while simultaneously channeling all the Battle Qi in his body into the Liuyan Sword, preparing to meet this head-on contest.
"Die!"
The radiance in Aruba's hand was like an angry dragon emerging from the sea, rushing straight at Luoning with the momentum to destroy the heavens and extinguish the earth.
"Heaven Fire Scorches the Plains!"
Luoning used this move again, colliding head-on with the radiance; the two forces intertwined and exploded in the air, kicking up a breathtaking energy storm.
While in the storm, Luoning did not stop; he instantly cast Sighing Wall several times to defend himself against the impact.
Kaierluosi used Frost Power to seal its entire dragon body in a block; this was the Frost Power it possessed after advancing to an Eight-level Magical Beast.
"Is he dead?"
Aruba and the others maintained the operation of the Trapping Kill Array, their eyes fixed tightly on the soaring flames and energy storm within the light screen, but they could not see what the situation was inside.
"I didn't expect this Luoning to be so strong."
Catherine looked with some worry at the dozen or so Golden Knights around her; although they were still maintaining the operation of the array, judging by their pale faces, the previous few impacts had placed a significant burden on their bodies.
After all, their light screen could reflect and refract energy beams, but it could not reflect shockwaves or the attacks of Luoning and Kaierluosi.
"Aruba, if an attack of this magnitude comes two more times, our array will disperse!" Catherine reminded in a low voice.
Aruba looked at the gradually dissipating energy storm and said in a low voice, "That should be about enough, right? Without Luoning, dealing with this dragon should just be a matter of time."
Catherine nodded slightly.
Legendary dragons like Kaierluosi often have special abilities, but these abilities basically only manifest after becoming Legendary grade.
Currently, it seems the strength level of this dragon should only be Level 8, not even reaching Level 9; although troublesome, it is not impossible to deal with.
Just as the two were whispering, Kaierluosi's massive body leaped suddenly, its giant claws carrying the power to tear the air, slashing viciously toward the area where the Golden Knights in the rear were located.
At the same time, Luoning instantly cast a series of attack Magic, all of which bombarded the area Kaierluosi was attacking.
Suddenly, the light screen of the Trapping Kill Array rippled violently.
Although it still maintained its form and did not collapse, the knight on the outside spat out a mouthful of blood!
Immediately after, every pore on his body began to ooze blood, and the wings on his back began to grow weak.
In barely one or two breaths, the radiance in this person's hand dissipated, and his entire body plummeted straight down from the air.
"Success!"
Luoning felt a surge of joy; he quickly activated Wind Shadow Art and drilled straight out through the crack that had appeared.
And the moment he drilled out, the crack recovered as before, and the Trapping Kill Array trapped Kaierluosi within it.
Roar!
Seeing that its master had left while it was still trapped inside, Kaierluosi became very anxious and condensed a massive Ice Arrow to attack the second Golden Knight.
Although one anchor point was missing, this array did not collapse, and its power was still able to withstand this attack.
However, Aruba, Catherine, and the others showed expressions of terror.
"Oh no!"
Luoning had come out.
"Die!"
Luoning's figure was like a flash of light, appearing directly in front of a Knight, and before the opponent could react, he severed their neck with a single sword strike.
The spraying blood announced that this battle had entered its second stage.
"Next!"
He no longer continued to trouble Aruba, Catherine, and the others, but instead lunged directly at those who appeared weaker.
Facing the power of a peak Sun-level, this group of Gold and Meteor-level fighters didn't even have a shred of resistance, and in the blink of an eye, seven or eight of them were cut down by Luoning.
The Trapping Kill Array also became fragile, and under one claw from Kaierluosi, it collapsed directly.
Awoo!
Kaierluosi let out an excited howl, and a mouthful of scorching flames engulfed the target Knight, melting them away completely.
Seeing this, Aruba and Catherine's expressions changed drastically; he had not expected Luoning to be able to find and attack the weak point of the formation in such a short amount of time.
But at this moment, there was no time for him to think too much; he had to go all out to stop Luoning's next move.
"The rest of you, fall back and form the array again!"
Catherine screamed.
The air currents trembled violently, yet Luoning had already arrived in front of her.
"Do you think that with your speed, you can outmatch me?"
The Liuyan Sword slashed over; the opponent brought out a sword in her hand to block, but if even Aruba was no match for Luoning, how could she, a mere Silver Moon-level, possibly withstand Luoning's attack?
*Puchi! *
A massive force sent Catherine's longsword flying, and the Liuyan Sword followed through, severing her arm, the impact sending her plummeting downward.
Luoning manipulated the severed limb to bring it before him, and he removed the Space Ring from her finger.
Afterward, he dove straight down, continuing to hunt the opponent.
"Daniel, you and the others stay behind to deal with the dragon, I will go help Catherine!"
Aruba anxiously chased after Luoning, wanting to engage in a skirmish, but Luoning simply ignored him.
Having had that annoying formation earlier, Luoning decided to clear out the weaker enemies first, and then come back to duel with Aruba.
The scales of victory had tilted completely in his favor. (End of chapter)
