Chapter 1069: Massacre
Emperor Harvey reached out his power of will and realized the arrows were actually coming from his 4000 knights.
Their faces looked insane; it was not something rationality could overthrow.
Those arrows were especially taken out from Emperor Harvey’s inventory to guard the city, but they ended up as the murder weapons of his preachers.
Soon, Emperor Harvey’s shock turned into a wave of fury.
“You Bastard! You ruined my plan! You will be tortured for eternity!” he roared and waved his hand, “Kill him!”
Although the 4000 knights outside were acting a little strange, more than a hundred rank 19 knights in the hall personally granted by Emperor Harvey.
Elite knight Kirk was the first one to dash out and charge. He arrived in front of Abel and immediately did a combo strike. An ear-piercing sound lashed out from his sword.
Abel did not budge as Frankenstein immediately unleashed his wizard energy like a roaring tiger.
“You are a Law Defying Wizard!” Emperor Harvey gasped.
He saw knight Kirk suddenly come to a halt, and fresh blood gushed out from his mouth.
Only a law-defying wizard could make an elite knight lose control like this.
Frankenstein did not stop. He effortlessly stepped forward.
Although knight Kirk could not move, he could clearly see with his frightened eyes that the hooded wizard took out a golden blade as it plunged into his heart.
With twitching eyes, Knight Kirk realized how much of a joke he was to the wizard union.
A pure white soul beam reached up. But it did not fly towards the sky. Instead, it flew towards Abel’s forehead.
It was almost like the soul beam was charging towards a god faithfully as a sacrifice.
“You are not from the Wizard union. How can you steal my lord’s soul? You are a thief!” Emperor Harvey’s face began to twitch frantically.
One for the death of his loyal knight and another for his stolen soul.
Emperor Harvey knew the soul of an elite knight would normally return to his lord, which was what made death a glory.
However, it would be a completely different story if the soul flew into Abel. It meant their god wouldn’t be able to revive them.
He couldn’t even imagine what would happen if his soul ended up in the hand of his enemy.
He looked around at his temple. There was not a single holy knight still standing.
They were all suppressed by Frankenstein’s energy.
“My lord, please lend me your holy energy. I need it to fight against this evil force!” He held the holy armor in his hand and mumbled.
Immediately, a golden glow shot out of Emperor Harvey in the center.
The energy of Frankenstein was defused, and the knights regained their mobility.
“Formation!” Emperor Harvey knew he was fighting against a law-defying wizard, so he needed to go all out.
Abel did not stop them. But a formation entirely made out of rank 19 holy knights could perfectly counteract the power of a rank 21 law-defying wizard.
“Harvey, that should be the armour of the demon from beyond right?” Abel smiled.
“The power of my lord is something you can not comprehend!” Emperor Harvey yelled.
He was horrified. He knew the mystery of the holy armor, but Abel also knew about it.
Abel sensed a hint of familiarity with the holy armor coming from the crystal angel statue.
Emperor Harvey and his knight’s formation could not stop Abel’s power of the will since Frankenstein occupied them.
As far as Emperor Harvey understood, the power of the will was harmless, so he did not care about it too much.
However, when Abel’s power of the will made contact its the golden armor, Abel’s power of the will was immediately sucked in.
Just like entering his own gear, Abel’s power of the will immediately arrived at the owner recognition circle and saw 2 other power of the wills.
There was a big golden one and a small one that belonged to Emperor Harvey.
He did not have time to take down the big golden one. If his crystal angel statue did not grow so much recently, he probably wouldn’t have been able to directly enter holy armor like this.
That golden power of the will was unlike the one in the holy portal bag. It was much scarier, and he felt like his own power of the will wouldn’t stand a chance against it.
Abel trusted his intuition, which was much more powerful than any other wizard. Although his knight skill was nothing compared to his wizard skills, his intuition always served him well.
If he wanted to combat that golden power of the will, he could only do so as a god in the Dark World.
Actually, the Portal bag was a holy object, the demon from beyond given a deity in the Holy Kingdom. The power of the will Abel destroyed was the power of the will of the deity.
However, the owner of this holy armor was the demon from beyond itself. That golden power of the will was the demon from beyond’s power of the will.
The power of the will of a true god was not something Abel could take down. But, taking down Harvey’s beside it should be fine.
Emperor Harvey was a rank 20 holy knight, his power of the will was like a speck of dust to Abel. With a gentle swipe, it was gone.
Full formation! But suddenly, Emperor Harvey felt like he lost connection with the holy armor on him.
“The lord gave up on me?” He felt his heart drop.
How could he ever have guessed that someone could break his bond with the holy armor without even touching him?
“My lord, please hear my prayer. You are my one and only, and I will sacrifice everything for you!” He mumbled and hoped for a reply.
At that moment, Abel waved his hand, and the armor disappeared on his Emperor Harvey in a flash. Afterward, it reappeared in Abel’s hand.
Abel didn’t have time to look at it too much, so he threw it in his personal storage box.
The storage box had a special ability to separate energy, and Abel could immediately sense a connection of faith with Emperor Harvey and the knights through the crystal angel statue.
With the Holy armor in his hand, Abel has become the only figure of faith in the Lance Continent.
An awkward look emerged on his face. He didn’t expect all it took was to snatch the holy armor from Emperor Harvey before all the knights dropped their weapons and fell to their knees.
Abel was disappointed. He expected a battle, but the only one remaining conscious was Emperor Harvey.
“Who are you, what do you want!” Just like that, a great ruler of a continent has lost his grace and cried out like a child.
“Thanks Harvey, you helped me gather a lot of faithful souls. I’ll make sure your soul won’t get left behind. You will forever bring prayers for me!” Abel smiled and said.
“My lord will hunt you down and you will pay!” Emperor Harvey roared. He wanted to change, but he realized his legs had already lost their mobility.
Abel not only gained control over his soul, but he was also a law-defying wizard. His power was not something Emperor Harvey could withstand.
“Do you know why I kept you standing unlike the others?” Abel smiled and lowered his once.
Emperor Harvey caught a glimpse of Abel’s face from the hood with his weary eyes.
“I want you to bear witness. Everything you ever did was just a huge joke to me and the Wizard Union!” Abel smirked.
“These knights in the palace should be your first batch of holy knights right? Their souls belong to me now!” He continued.
Abel snapped his fingers, and all the knights silently dropped to the ground. It was as if they all went into a deep, joyful sleep.
Their dream of returning to God has come true.
Afterward, 94 pure white soul beams flew towards Abel and surrounded his body.
Emperor Harvey’s eyes began to water up. Every single one of those knights was irreplaceable in the continent, and they all dropped dead in seconds.
He thought of the mission his god gave him. He spent 300 years taking over the Lance Continent with vigor.
Dwarves, orcs, elves, and the wizard union all fell helplessly under him. When success was inches away from him, this wizard appeared.
Everything he ever planned, every preacher he ever had, every follower he ever gathered, every power he ever gained was destroyed in a flash.
“Also those 4000 knights, I’ll take their souls with me as well!” Abel continued.
Sounds of bodies dropping down emerged from outside.
4000 souls danced around and flew into the crystal angel statue under the guidance of Izual.
Inside the crystal angel statue was a special space. Even 4000 souls have only taken up a small area.
Abel had gotten 5000 souls all together with this journey, and the energy within his crystal angel statue became vibrant all of a sudden.
Abel sensed their energy, and a smile emerged on his face.
With those new prayers, his crystal angel statue would soon become dark gold.
“You are a demon, you didn’t even give my knights a chance to fight!” Emperor Harvey went insane as he roared.
“Harvey, you don’t have the right to say that!”Abel said in a mocking tone.
Abel was an Emperor himself in the kingdom of St Ellis, so his status was on par with Emperor Harvey. However, he was also a prestigious master potion maker in the Central Continent. If Emperor Harvey came to the Central Continent, he would just be an ordinary knight.
He wouldn’t stand a chance against Abel.
