The elite warriors of the castle clashed fiercely with the numerically superior Dragon Guard, escalating
the battle into a brutal confrontation.
Austin led the castle forces, while Cinna commanded the Dragon Guard.
In the midst of the chaotic battle, Dustin and Reagan faced each other in a standoff. They cautiously
observed without taking immediate action.
The ongoing combat hindered Dustin from strategically deploying formations. Both the fog formation
and octagram array attacked indiscriminately.
The earlier planted bombs appeared useless unless the situation reached a critical juncture where
mutual destruction became the only choice.
After a brief observation, Dustin issued a decisive command, “Austin, the ambush plan failed. Retreat
with your men now!”
As he gauged the situation, he observed that the castle’s elite warriors, though brave and individually
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtskilled, faced a roadblock in advancing further.
Despite each warrior’s capacity to handle three to five opponents, achieving victory in the battle proved
to be elusive.
The Dragon Guard’s forces, ten times larger, cast a continual shadow, capable of wearing down the
castle’s elite through attrition.
The prudent decision now was to pull back while their strength remained undiminished. Consequently,
Dustin couldn’t allow these elite fighters to sacrifice themselves in vain.
Upon receiving his brother’s command, Austin wasted no time and commanded, “Form the Delta
Formation! Follow my lead for the breakthrough!”
Then, he swiftly directed his team into formation and led them, charging toward the vulnerable point.
The castle’s elite warriors, already showing superiority and exceptional coordination, skillfully broke
through. They created a gap in the encirclement meticulously formed by the Dragon Guard.
“Quick, go after them! Don’t let them get away!” Julius shouted.
“Go after them!” Cinna’s command was swift as he led a sizable group in pursuit of the castle’s elite
warriors.
The intense life-and-death struggle transformed into a pursuit through the mountainous forest as they
navigated the challenging terrain.
In an instant, they had moved far from the initial battlefield. At that moment, Dustin stood alone on the
castle’s side of the battleground.
On the Dragon Guard’s front, three grandmaster martial artists-elders of the Dragon Guard-stood firm
alongside Reagan and Julius, each possessing formidable and unique skills.
Fortunately, moments before his demise, Seth’s final sword strike had decimated most of the Dragon
Guard’s elite force.
Without this fortunate turn of events, Dustin would have had to face a much larger elite force.
“Logan, why aren’t you making a break for it?” Reagan sneered. His expression resembled a predator
sizing up its prey.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Why should I? I came here today to kill you,” Dustin replied coldly.
“Kill me?” Reagan laughed loudly.
He went on, “Logan, credit is given where it’s due-you’ve got exceptional talent and strength. Landing
in the top ten of the Astonishing World List at your age is no small feat.
“But you’re still a bit inexperienced in my book. You should realize the gap between the tenth and the
fifth on the Astonishing World List is considerable.
“The rankings on the Astonishing World List are rough guidelines, not absolute measures of strength.
The death of your former Chief Guildmaster Alaric is the best example,” Dustin retorted coldly.
In the previous Astonishing World List, Alaric held the second rank, and Seth was third. However,
following Seth’s breakthrough, Alaric proved no match and didn’t even get the chance to escape.
“Alaric?” Reagan snorted coldly.
He continued, “Don’t overestimate yourself. First off, I am not Alaric, and you are not Seth. Exceptional
swordsmen like Seth come around once in a lifetime. You’re still a long way from reaching that level!”
