SWNOVELS Chapter 4017
Chapter 4017 On Another Level
"How is this happening? The communication device should be working!" Quirina could not figure out why she got no response from the device, as it had worked fine the day before. Levi had even briefly explained the situation in Lightspring.
"How is it going, Lord Morell? Haven't you managed to reach Lord Garrison yet?" "Lord Garrison didn't abandon us, did he?" "The Cordierite Association has amassed an army dozens of times larger this time. I'm afraid not even Lord Garrison will stand a chance."
"I wouldn't depend on the Prime Association. They're businessmen who care about profits only after all. Don't be surprised if they suddenly decide to run away in the face of such a powerful enemy." Many Astre Lune Sect elders were anxious, if not worried or fearful.
Just as concerned as the elders, Quirina let out a sigh. It's every man for himself when trouble comes knocking, and that's especially true for the calculating Prime Association. They'll back out as soon as their losses outweigh their profits.
"Lord Garrison isn't the kind of person to run away at the sight of trouble. Let's not lose our heads." After pausing for a while, Quirina continued, "But of course, we can't just do nothing. Elder Canfield, take some people with you and head to Lightspring on the cloudship to find Lord Garrison. Remember to avoid drawing any attention and report to the headquarters should anything happen."
Levi took the captured dragon-like cloudship, with the best premium ultimate weapons on it, when he left. The one captured in Dragon's Grave Valley is left here at Astre Lune Sect, and now it comes in handy. Meanwhile, the Cordierite Association army went full speed ahead, with their elites arriving in a cloudship a few days earlier than the Tenebrous Sky Division. Immediately, a sea of banners and elite soldiers surrounded Lightspring as if they were predators trapping their preys.
Standing on the city wall were the gatekeepers, including the fighters of the Prime Association. When they saw the situation outside, they could not help but react by inhaling sharply. There seemed to be no end to the sea of combat-ready soldiers, who were armed and eager for violence. Their murderous intent was enough to send chills down anyone's spine. Among them were all kinds of spirit beasts; some growled as they pawed the ground, while others spread their wings to circle the city in the sky.
The spirit beasts ensured they did whatever they could to exert as much pressure on the city as possible.
If one were to look in the southeast direction, one could see hundreds of people with complex markings floating on their foreheads.
Careful observation would reveal that the markings were formed by the crisscrossing of sword energy.
Because of how powerful the energy was, the entire area seemed as though it could be sliced into pieces.
Suddenly, everyone on the city wall was assaulted by a wave of tiger roar. The sound was so deafening that it harmed not only their eardrums but also their mental fortitude.
Those with low cultivation levels even began to feel severe dizziness. "Battle Tiger Tribe is unleashing their power in unison. It seems that things have just gotten serious," said a fighter on the city wall after assessing the situation.
“So that's what a tribe with a spirit beast bloodline can do? They've just unleashed a terrifying force without so much as a warning."
"Not to mention the sword cultivators; they managed to muster their sword energy without even lifting a finger. That's never been heard of!"
"The Cordierite Association army is too great. They're on another level when compared to the Prime Association." "The Prime Association is in trouble now. They backed themselves into a corner because of some robber."
"The battle hasn't even begun, and we can already feel the pressure. It's hard to imagine how more fearsome they can be when the fight breaks out." "Look over there. There seem to be quite a few dragon-shaped cloudships heading our way. We better scram before we get caught in the crossfire."
