783 Chapter 783- Catastrophe Of The Tower Town (2)

"Blake that thing…" Frida shouted from the backlines with a pale face.

"Yeah, it's the very same opponent we met that year"

Blake answered not removing his eyes from his opponent for even a second. He was not surprised by her reaction after all, even he was no different when he me that thing earlier today.

"What's going on? Do you two know this thing or something?" The adventurers asked confused by their reactions.

It was no wonder they did not recognise the being in front after all, they were not the part of the Burning Arrows Guild. For them, it might even be their first encounter with it.

"I don't have time to explain about the past, but I will tell you this, get ready for battle... that thing is no ally"

Blake shouted, cautioning his teammates. On his instruction all of them raised their weapons and shields, ready to go into battle in a moment's notice.

"I finally understand why we didn't meet a single high ranking member of the organisations. It's because they were all killed by that thing"…

"What?" His words caused all the adventurers to widen their eyes in shock. Killing all the high ranking members of the criminal organisation on his own, what kind of being could do something like that?

The people in question weren't just your average Joe but members of a powerful organisation all with a very high level. It would be easier to understand if one thought of them as Blades of Ascension.

The members of this guild were all insanely strong; however, they were only just one part of the whole organisation. There were many more like them in the upper levels of the Viepr nad Chaos Order.

Just based on the level of the members they got up there, it was not hard to understand how powerful the criminal organisations were. It would not be an exaggeration to say that they could have become the tyrant of the tower town even without needing to take the adventurer's families as hostages.

All the adventurers of the tower town regardless of the guild they belonged to, had to untie together just to stand a chance to fight them. Yet what was Blake saying all of a sudden?

The figure in front of them defeated orgainsations on that level, all on its own? If it could do something like that, then didn't it mean that they stood no chance at all?

Just as that thought popped in their minds, they quickly suppressed it. Being veteran adventurers, they knew they could not lose their spirit before the battle even began.

"Haha, I hate being right during times like this"

Wyot laughed bitterly. Just until a few moments ago before they arrived here, he was joking and teasing with the newbies, laughing at their fear. Who would have known that there really was something much more dangerous than the members of the criminal organisations down here in the underground chamber?

"Have you fought with it before, Blake?"...

"Yeah, twice even. Both times it was my complete loss" Blake responded by nodding his head "He was also the one who opened the hole in my shoulder"…

"What?" Wyot, Frida, Alvara and the others turned to glance at him.

"Don't tell me that the other time when you disappeared, you went to fight him?"…

"That's right"

Seeing Blake nod, his teammates didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He went away during the middle of an important mission to fight such a dangerous guy. No wonder they found him battered and bruised.

Frida looked at him with silent fury burning in her eyes, while the others were astonished at his galls. The being in front of them could wipe out a power organisation like the Viper and the Chaos Order all on his own.

What was he thinking picking a fight with it?

"Blake I'm disappointed in you. How could you fight such an exciting battle without inviting me?"

At wyot's words, everybody started chuckling. As if having him would have made any difference. Nevertheless, with Blake and Wyot fooling around, the grim atmosphere settled amongst the adventurers, gradually disappeared.

"Jokes aside, Blake do we stand a chance against it?" Wyot asked the question that was on everyone's mind.

"Perhaps"

The answer they received was surprisingly positive "Hoh, you sound quite sure? What's your basis for that? W that it reminds me, how did you manage to come out only with a hole in your shoulder after fighting that guy? I sure would have counted myself dead if I fought that thing all on my own"…

While the adventurers were chatting and discussing among themselves, Mars stood across from them without moving. It was obvious that they were making some kind of plan to defeat him.

However, he did not interrupt them and continued to allow them to make their plan. It went against his honour to attack an enemy while they were still making their preparation. As such, he remained still while waiting for the adventurers to ready themselves.

After a while, the adventurers entered his range. Their formation was simple and effective, perfect for sieging enemies multiple times bigger and stronger than them.

"Wow, it's really as you said Blake, this thing really didn't attack us while we were making our preparations. To think that some monsters would also have a sense of honour, I guess I really was a frog living in a well" Wyot commented brandishing his dagger.

Blake had already debriefed them about his fight with Mars, the past of the Burning Arrows guild and the abilities and disposition of the enemy. As a result of which, they knew that the being in front of him was a monster that had come out of the dungeon.

What's more, it was not just any ordinary monster, but a highly intelligent one, capable of taking a humanoid appearance.

Since none of them came from a first grade country or encountered a powerful monster like the one in front of them, they didn't know that once a monster reaches the Catastrophe class… that is level 700+ they gain the ability to take on a humanoid form.

That being said, even though these adventurers were unaware about it, they did not dare to underestimate their opponent. From the start their plan was to go all out.

Blake activated his skill [Solar Protector] and quickly merged with his avatar becoming bigger and bigger. Frida started casting Amalgamation magic of two intermediate tier elements, Alvara unleashed the skill of her sword [Rose Thorn], Wyot activated his stealth, Marba unleased her magic and Burg raised his defence.

All the adventurers activated their most powerful skills with no one holding anything back. Their attitude seemed like they were not just initiating a battle but instead fighting a battle that had reached its last stage.

NEIGH… Mars released a deep grunt, impressed at the determination of his enemy. It wouldn't have been surprising to him if they decided to run away after feeling his presence.

However, not only did these adventurers not run away, but they also saw through the injuries that he sustained and utilised this chance to defeat him. That's right, Mars was not in his optimum condition.

Not only had he used his most powerful skill to defeat the top executives of the criminal organisation, but he also sustained some serious damage while trying to fight the two leaders of the organisation.

The two corpses that lay in a gory and gruesome manner around him, were none other than the bodies of the two leaders of the Viper and Chaos Order.

Against these two, even Mars had to go all out and sustained severe injuries in the process. By now, he was already tired and running out of energy. Even then, while facing a new group of opponents he didn't back down.

Instead, the fires in his body burned even more fervently excited at the battle that was about to go down.

Above the underground chamber, atop the buildings of the criminal organisation, the group of true vampires stood muttering something among themselves.

"That just now was the spatial magic of sister Bea. Is she on with his plan too? I don't understand what he is trying to do. Defeating the criminal organisation all on his own and then facing the adventurers who were supposed to go against those people, himself"

Theodore commented, his crimson eyes piercing through the layers of ground and staring at the underground chamber.

"Hmm… brother, could he be trying to become the…" Before Maybell could complete her sentence, Theodore shouted urgently.

"Wait! What the hell?!! Get away from here everyone, that insane guy, he is trying to blow away the layers of ground between the surface and the underground chamber".

Everybody was shocked; nevertheless, they hurriedly jumped away. As soon as they moved, the ground, no, the entire town started shaking fiercely. From the surface, it looked like another earthquake; however, the magnitude was far different than before.

Buildings collapsed everywhere and large ravines ran through the ground. Before long, the topography of the place started changing, as if the very fabric of earth was responding to some tremendous force from within.

The trembling intensified, and the earth seemed to convulse as if awakening some ancient, slumbering giant. Enormous chasms opened up, revealing the churning depths below.

BOOM…

Finally as if unable to bear the strain, the ground split apart, sending massive plates of stone and layers of ground, colliding and hurling through the air. The aftermath of the impact was disastrous, sending waves of shockwaves throughout the town.
