Chapter 304 - Collapse of the Ladros City: Spirit Synchronization
Yujin inhaled deeply and nodded at his comrades.
The three B-ranks nodded with a grave expression and said, "Fine, we'll leave this to you. I hope you can last longer."
After saying those words, they quickly left and went to help their other comrades who needed their help.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Alice and the other two B-ranks were pushed back. Now that they don't have the support of the three B-ranks they couldn't handle the power of the six-circle officer.
"Are you seeking death? Or maybe you're underestimating me?" The six-circle officer asked in a cold tone.
'I never thought that I would be able to fight an opponent at this level this time.' Yujin thought as he recalled the incident in the Ibish village.
At that time, Souta drunk two monster potions to hold the six-circle opponents. He was too weak and he could only support Souta by casting buff spells and heal some of his injuries.
He didn't expect that he would fight those people once again in just a few months. It's all thanks to Souta that his strength grew to the point that he could damage this level of opponent.
"I'm really glad that I joined the Dark Oculus Legion..." Yujin said as a smile formed on his face.
"Hmm...? What are you talking about? Well, I'll kill you..." The six-circle officer coldly said before he charged towards Yujin.
Swoosh!
Alice and the two B-ranks quickly moved their body to intercept him.
"There's no need to hold back! Alophy! Let's do this!" Yujin shouted and a small girl appeared on top of his shoulder.
"Yeah, let's do this! Jin!" Alophy emitted a bright light as her energy burst out of her body.
[Secret Technique: Spirit Synchronization Mode]
Alophy flew in the air and entered Yujin's body. Both of their energy fused together. A warm yet gentle energy swept out in the whole district and it healed the injuries of their comrades.
"What?!" The six-circle officer was stunned when he saw this transformation. "This is the purest form of energy... The spirit power...!"
The injuries of Alice and the two B-ranks quickly closed as the gentle light covered their body. It enhances their overall strength and refilled their mana pool.
Yujin tightly gripped the swords in both of his hands. The spirit power continued to flow in his body and it went towards the two swords creating a bridge behind him.
"I'll surpass myself at this moment!!"
All the spirit power inside Alophy's body was flowing through his body. She was in his mana pool and fused with it. The two of them were one. The spirit power that she acc.u.mulated was being used and this mode wouldn't last that long.
Five minutes... But this was enough for him as the reinforcement would arrive soon.
"Let's go, everyone!" Yujin said as he charged towards the six-circle officer and slashed his swords.
Bang!
Alice and the other two B-ranks followed him.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
He exchanged blows with the six-circle officers while his comrades were supporting him.
After ten seconds, he switched to Alice and he became a support. Alice just focused on attacking their opponent as she knew that her comrades would support her.
Another ten seconds had passed and she switches with the other B-rank. The B-rank brawler quickly moved in front of her and launched a barrage of punches.
Alice backed away and quickly drink a mana potion and a health potion. It was to replenish her fighting power because she became the attacker once again.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Shockwaves were sweeping out as the six-circle officer became furious. He couldn't believe that four B-ranks could push him to his limit.
It's irritating. It's annoying.
This happened because of this spirit user. He didn't expect that the spirit power was potent that could heal and buff almost everyone on the battlefield. It was his first time seeing a spirit user in his life so it was surprising for him. This was out of his expectations.
Four B-ranks were fighting a powerful six-circle officer of the infamous Seven Deadly Sins? It was hard to believe but Yujin made it possible with his spirit power. The ancient power of the fairies.
Everything should be gone by now but the outburst of the three elements in district five to district four decreased their numbers to a certain degree. No one expected that a person with three elemental affinities aside from the city lord was in this city.
Lumilia and the other leaders noticed the changes on the battlefield. Their focus unexpectedly became stronger and the cause of this was the strange energy in the air.
'This power... Is it Yujin?' She thought as she felt the gentle energy. She knew that Yujin was a spirit contractor but he hid it as a spirit couldn't be found any place anymore.
She turned to her subordinate and said, "Tell me the state of the battlefield."
"I'm sorry, vice-commander! We can't determine the state of the battlefield! We lose contact with our subordinates that have the tasks to send a report to us every minute!" The subordinate bowed her head as she reported what's happening to them.
"You don't need to apologize. It seems that they deliberately target our people so that we would lose our grasp in the current situation of the battlefield." Lumilia said as she squinted her eyes. She wasn't sure what's happening in the frontline in this chaotic situation but it seems that Yujin and Alice were giving their best.
It only means that the situation was worse which forced Yujin to reveal his trump card.
Lynn who was at her side took a mana potion and drunk it. While Lumilia was planning their next move, she was helping the other people by casting healing spells or buff spells until she drained her mana.
'Everyone was trying their best. I need to try my best and break my limit.' Lynn said to herself as she clenched her first tightly.
She closed her eyes and recalled everything that happened to her in the institute.
"Break the barrier!" Lumilia said to her subordinate while looking at the thick layer of barrier in the sky. She could also see the huge crimson ball above it. She didn't have an idea what's that crimson ball but she thinks that it was harmless.
Also, it's been a while since the explosion above the barrier stopped. It means that the battle there has concluded. She didn't know who won but she could guess that even if the enemy managed to defeat Teacher Bargan, they wouldn't be able to do anything in this battle.
Why? Because Teacher Bargan was their opponent. They wouldn't be able to escape that man without receiving heavy injuries. Judging from the intensity of the battle before, she could estimate that those seven-circle officers weren't in a condition that could fight.
Her subordinate passed her order until it arrived to the people in the city walls.
In the operation room of the wall where the guard could monitor the walls, the city guards there heard the order from Lumilia.
"Is it really okay to trust that woman?" One of the city guards asked.
"What should we do? The city lord and other high-ranking officers are fighting on district one. They don't have a time to command us with them fighting those powerful people." Another city guard replied to him.
"The reinforcement our coming so we should follow her orders for a while."
"Yeah, we have no choice."
"At least she's helping everyone."
They turned off the device for the barrier. The energy source of the barrier stopped producing energy and several cracks appeared on its surface.
Everyone inside the city noticed the changes on the barrier. They couldn't help but turned their head to look at it. Cracks spread out quickly in just a few seconds and it covered the entire barrier.
After a few moments, the barrier was shattered and its fragments fell before it faded into thin air.
"Evacuate the civilians! Lead them out of the city!" Lumilia ordered her subordinates. The Seven Deadly Sins were slowly coming towards them and their forces weren't enough to completely stop them. If they arrived here, then countless civilians would die.
"Tell our forces to slowly move back. We'll initiate the self-destruct mode of the defensive mechanism." She said in a cold tone.
