Chapter 248 - Forbidden Skill - Part 2
Arina watched the whole fight from the side, her duty was to protect the body, Delia's body. That was her job for now while the man fought the whole battalion of Guardian Knight.
For the start, she saw Tang transformed. His black hair turned blue along with his eyes as well. Then he flashed forward, leaving the lightning trail. Within a split second, three lightning cages rose, splitting the Guardian Knights into three areas.
At the same time, the dark clouds suddenly gathered on the top. Then she noticed his hair turned back black, his body muscled up, and also got taller.
"What's that?
" Only then she realized the man was not a mage, he was not a warrior either,
"What his class is?
" The more she knew about him, she discovered more mysteries about him.
Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!
Thunder rained down from the dark cloud, destroying the Guardian Knights. While the thunder destroyed the Guardian Knight's formation, the man was fighting the whole battalion of the Guardian Knights.
During the fight, she noticed that the man was not trying to kill the Guardian Knights. He never aimed for their vital spot but their limbs. The battle-ax was either hit their arms or their legs.
When the Guardian Knight tried to use her as the hostage, Tang would throw the axes, killing whoever tried to get close to her. The man alone dictated the flow of the battle.
The Guardian Knight's silver armor was destroyed by the battle-ax, but she then noticed something as the battle continued. The battle-ax had reached its limit, the crescent blade on the tip of the battle-ax shattered after hitting the Guardian Knight's silver armor.
'This is bad,' she thought Tang without his weapon would be soon overwhelmed by the number of the Guardian Knights. He had to keep his momentum or he would lose.
But soon she witnessed something she had not experienced before. The broken battle-ax disappeared from his hand as a pitch-black big scythe appeared in his hand.
The Storage Bag could not do that, not they could not save the weapon into the storage bag but they had to reach the weapon inside the bag. It could not be called directly with their hand just like what Tang Shaoyang did. Even the most expensive storage bag could not do that. She was pretty sure about this.
Then how Tang did that? That was not the storage bag's trick for sure, 'Maybe he can?' She thought while witnessing the man used the scythe to tear the Guardian Knight's limbs.
The sharp tip of the scythe easily pierced through the silver armor. The battle continued for like twenty minutes before it ended with only one man standing alone. All the Guardian Knights were laying down on the ground, groaning in pain as they lost their mobility since Tang Shaoyang tore their legs.
"A hundred and twenty knights with 120 average level, this should be enough,
" he counted all the Guardian Knights, a hundred and fifty Guardian Knights in total. They came to chase after him, but they just ended up as sacrifices for him to resurrect Delia.
—I heard a lot about the resurrection, the magus from Black Tower is so crazy researching over the resurrection spell, but here the system provides the skill easily.
Zowen could not help but voice her thoughts when she was going to witness the Myth of Resurrection. She was salty about the system, all her hard work seemed nothing to the system as it covered her spell easily into skills. With the system governing the world, magic would be as simple as flipping a hand.
As long as you learned the skill, magic was not a fantasy. Everyone could be a magus as long you leveled up high enough.
—I thought you will never get salty over this, so you have feelings too, after all.
Zaneos chimed in, he was teasing her for taking him lightly when he mentioned this before. As for the orc, Karan never participated in such a conversation. He was a monster with a simple thought, the battle was what he desired. Battlefield could help him get stronger, that was what he believed.
Tang Shaoyang ignored his spirits too as he walked back toward Arina. His breathing was hurried, battling continuously took a big toll on his body even with high attributes.
"There are a hundred and twenty Guardian Knights, that should be enough for the sacrifice. Do you need anything else?
" He noticed the girl was looking at him in a daze so he asked.
Arina snapped out of her trance and immediately shook her head. She was in a daze with the realization of how strong the man was. Earlier, she could quite believe the man took care of the battalion Royal Knight alone. Now she witnessed everything from the start, there was no more reason to not believe that.
She took a deep breath and started to walk closer to the Guardian Knights,
"This is the first time I use the skill, so maybe we can try to gather them in one spot.
" She was unsure how the skill worked.
Tang Shaoyang did not question as he began dragging the Guardian Knights into one area. A series of curses flowed from the knights' mouths, but the man was not affected by the curse.
Five minutes later, a hundred Guardian Knights were gathered in one area. Tang Shaoyang left them to Arina as he went back to the village to get Delia's body. He carried her within his embrace.
He placed a clean mat next to the area where he placed the knights and out her body gently on top of the mat. His gentle care for Delia's dead body for some reason evoked Arina's jealousy.
'Why does he treat the dead gently and treat me coldly?' Such a thought appeared in Arina's head, 'What are you thinking of, Arina. You are no one but merely a slave to him.'
"What are you going to do!?
" One Guardian Knight yelled at Tang Shaoyang and Arina. What they were doing was too suspicious. Placing the life and the dead next to each other, they wanted to do something that was against their belief, the Guardian Knight felt that way for some reasons.
Instead of activating the skill, she looked at Tang Shaoyang. She was waiting for his order. For some reason, she saw the man grinning at the Guardian Knight who questioned them.
With a big grin plastered on his face, he approached and squatted next to the Guardian Knight,
"I am going to sacrifice you to resurrect my girl, what are you going to do about it?
"
The Guardian Knight's eyes widened in shock, not expecting to hear such a taboo from the man. He then glanced toward Arina, trying to confirm something before he glanced back at Tang.
"You can't do that, that's a taboo, you will receive Goddess' Judgment, you will be cursed for the rest of your life!
" The Guardian said that with a terrified expression.
"Taboo? Are you stupid or what? Who decided resurrection is taboo? Your Goddesses? If your goddesses are so almighty, then why don't they come to save you? If your goddesses are so amazing, why don't they capture by themselves rather than sending weaklings like you guys? Your goddesses are fake!
"
After saying that, he stood and waved his hand toward Arina,
"Start the resurrection!
"
