Chapter 548: Chapter 548

“What the fuck was that!?” Melkan asked Carol Summers with an irritated and slightly frantic tone: “What, the fuck, was that!?”

 

“I don’t know! Stop asking ME!” Carol Summers wiped off some dust off her face and answered: “That kind of move must have a heavy cost! It’s impossible that she can use it again! Just press on with the attack!”

 

Around fifteen minutes ago, just when the teams of Lucias Vyn and Lady Marza O’Gul pushed their way through almost halfway across the distance from one entrance to the underground armory to another, and just were meters away from the central bunker, the teams led by Carol Summers and Soren Lupei launched their attacks upon them.

 

Bolts of energy and lightning, scorching fireballs, and beams of light flew first in this wave of attack, followed by enchanted grenades and gas canisters. A transparent magical shield that looked like one side of a glass polyhedron appeared in the space in front of Lucias Vyn and Lady Marza O’Gul’s teams. The shield cracked and shattered on impact, but it also absorbed the majority of the damage from those incoming attacks. The grenades and canisters shot right next to a few of the super powered mercenaries and witches, some of which exploded, and some of which released poison gas into the air. Two individuals at the forefront of the slowly marching team were instantly blown to the side, and a few more other individuals inhaled the poison gas by accident, and lost the ability to fight in a matter of seconds. This caused the hordes of the Nightmare Bat-wolves to tore a hole in their formation, which they had to have some of the fighters in standby push forward to close. But even so, many of the follow up attacks from these newly emerged enemies struck true and caused them more casualties and forced them to back off.

 

“Carol Summers!” Lucias Vyn shouted through her teeth: “This deed of insolence will be your last!”

 

Several figures in dark cloaks from Lucias Vyn’s team left their positions and went into the darkness, then as the other members of her team launched their counter attack, they hid in the dark and awaited a chance to strike at the most opportune moments.

 

Green fireballs and red lightnings shot back at the position of Carol Summers and Soren Lupei’s forces. Assistant Professor Vyn stepped in front of Lucias Vyn and extended his hands forward, both his hands glowing in bright silver light.

 

“Carol Summers, Soren Lupei!” Seeing that Assistant Professor Vyn slowly levitated upwards and his whole body started glowing in bright silver light, two energy swords made of rumbling silver fire appeared in his hands: “I, Matthew Vyn Hellinger, the last son of the Hellinger House, and wielder of the Hellinger Silver Flames, shall smite thee in the Hellinger Name!” The minute he finished his last word, the two silver swords of flame shot into the air and disappeared behind two silver gaps.

 

“A grand wizard! Fuck!” Carol Summers’ robe lit up in pale grey light and projected a giant energy shadow of a robed Amazon warrior carrying a sword and a shield: “Soren! Come to my side, harden the shield with me!”

Without much of a doubt, Soren Lupei leapt to Carol Summers’ side and breathed fire into the shield of the shadow Amazon warrior from below. The fire crawled onto the shield like snakes seeking their places to rest, and formed into several symbols on the shield and a crest on its main face. And the next second, two silver energy swords fell down from above aiming at their heads. 

 

“Clank!” The two silver energy swords collided with the shadow Amazon warrior’s shield. Within an instant the tips of the energy swords dug into the shield and splashed the energy forming the shield around. The shadow Amazon warrior was knocked down on her knees, but it did not lessen the blow from the two silver energy swords, as they pierced through the shield and continued their way down the body. The two energy swords did not continue on their strike without loss of sharpness or integrity - as they penetrated deeper, the body of the shadow Amazon warrior chipped away its impact and its body bit by bit.

 

“Boom!” Carol Summers’ robe exploded into smithereens, leaving her with only a suit of thin grey leather armor on, and the body of the shadow Amazon warrior collapsed towards the positions of the two silver energy swords in a rapid and violent implosion. The two silver energy swords shattered from the pressure and impact, then all of the pieces exploded. All of these explosions released several energy shockwaves that swept through the space in the underground armory, blowing and pushing many members of their teams away, injuring and even debilitating many.

 

Four cloaked figures emerged from the darkness and lunged at Carol Summers and Soren Lupei, each with a dark and twisted blade in their hand. Two lycans lunged forward with their claws burning and fire and smoke coming out of their mouths trying to halt their attempts at sneak attacks, one of whom succeeded in clawing a cloaked figure away, but the other was defeated by taking a jab on the neck by the dark and twisted blade.

 

The lycan fell onto the ground and tried to pull the blade out, but a chilling cold and decrepifying curse instantly stopped his movement and caused his entire body to freeze then shatter and crumble into piles of icy pellets and shards.

 

A curved sword came from the side and decapitated a cloaked figure’s head, then a straight double-edged sword thrust forward and impaled another cloaked figure from the back. But before Carol Summers’ maid could retract her weapons, the body of the cloaked figure she impaled seemed to have grabbed onto her blade, the figure’s head turned 180 degrees and centipedes and snakes burst out of this figure’s face mask and bit her on her forearm.

 

“Shit!” Carol Summers’ maid released her power infused into her sword and tore the cloaked figure to shreds, but she could still feel the toxins and curse creeping up her arm: “Be careful Ms. Summers! They have the Blades of Fade!”

 

With a loud screech, a warrior dispatched the final cloaked figure using a fiery axe slash, but only after it stabbed another warrior with the dark and twisted blade.
