The raid team began to attack the basement. In the narrow space, the sounds of swords and magic clashing could be heard.
There were not many underground guards, but their combat power could not be underestimated. There was no lack of magic experts among them.
Among them, Goodwin saw Tyrone's figure.
"Long time no see, Oracle Lord Tyrone. No, I should be calling you Lord God's Overwatch Executor now, right?”Goodwin greeted Tyrone. "From the previous battle, you probably didn't expect us to attack tonight. So, what are you doing here? Should he continue with Grygryce's research?”
"This has nothing to do with you, traitor." Tyrone said coldly. Goodwin's intuition told him that Tyrone was trying to hide something.
But that was not important.
He slashed at Tyrone. He no longer had the " Lightless Shining Sword ", so he found an iron sword as a replacement.
Tyrone met the attack with a gorgeous sword. The two swords collided and then overlapped. To Goodwin's surprise, Tyrone wasn't a weak scholar. He looked more like a Demon Warrior. However, his strength could not be compared to Goodwin's, and he was forced to retreat.
"Will Solidifying Golden Break!" Tyrone chanted a strange incantation, and then his sword was wrapped in white light. In a moment of carelessness, Goodwin's sword was cut in half. Tyrone followed up with another attack, stabbing his sword at Goodwin's chest.
"Artifact Control Seal."
Under the interference of Goodwin's soul, Tyrone stabbed in a strange direction. Goodwin kicked his sword away and grabbed his throat.
"Tell me, what are you doing here?" Goodwin demanded.
Tyrone didn't speak, he just struggled.
"It's fine if you don't want to say it. I don't really want to know anyway.”Goodwin tightened his grip. "Die."
" I... am doing what Master Grimm... Master Glaze... instructed me to do..." Tyrone immediately admitted defeat.
"He's already dead. What else do you want?”
"I…I'm not sure…I'm just following the list he left behind…"
"Where is the list?"
Suddenly, a soldier stabbed Goodwin's back with a sword. Goodwin quickly turned around and used Tyrone's body to block the sword.
Tyrone screamed in pain, dead.
"You killed him. It has nothing to do with me." Goodwin said to the soldier. " You killed your agent."
The soldier's expression turned ugly. How would the gods punish him?
But he didn't have time to worry about that. Because Clear Sky had pierced him with his spear.
"Who is the person in your hands?" Clear Sky asked Goodwin.
"Tyrone, the current Executor of Divine Overwatch.”Goodwin threw Tyrone's body on the ground. "Uh, he's an ex now."
Qing Kong pulled down his mask and spat. The phlegm landed squarely on Tyrone's face.
Goodwin suddenly remembered something. He rummaged through Tyrone's clothes and found a note. It was probably the so-called " list."
"Even though you are a bastard and helped Greengrass to do such a terrible thing…you are not bad to me.”he said to Tyrone. "Sorry, this is an act of war.”
He found a sword, cut off Tyrone's head, and raised it high.
He raised Tyrone's head high. "Your leader is dead! You lost! Throw away your weapons, now!”
The defenders did not throw away their weapons, but their morale was clearly affected. More and more corpses fell to the ground. The raiding party had already charged into the room where the Punishment Cannon was. There were a few well-dressed people in the room, curled up in a corner and shivering. They should be dignitaries related to Tyrone's plan and had accidentally been involved in the battle.
Goodwin recognized another familiar face in the group. In fact, he had never seen him in person. He had only seen him in Chris's memories. Chris was that bastard knight in red armor.
Are you Chris 'father?" he asked.
The man was trembling in fear, but when he saw Goodwin talking to him, he immediately leaned over as if he had found a life-saving straw and put his hands on Goodwin's shoulders. "Yes, Chris is my son! Are you his friend? Please save me!"
"No." Goodwin cut off his hand. "I regret to tell you that I killed your precious son.”
Chris 'father was rolling on the ground in pain. Goodwin raised his sword.
" This strike isn't for the Original People." Goodwin stabbed his sword into his heart. "It's for Alexi's father.”
Chris's father opened and closed his mouth with difficulty, as if he was asking,""Who's Alexi?"
"Alexi was your son's friend.”said Goodwin. "After you go to hell, you can slowly figure out what you and your father did to them.”
The nobles in the corner screamed, afraid that they would become Goodwin's next target. Goodwin didn't look at them. He was walking toward the prison.
But at this moment, he heard a voice.
The voice was very distant, but it was extremely clear."May the seven bodies of the God of the Seven Directions become one, may the will of the thirty-two Saints be immortal, and may the eighty-eight stars shine for all eternity. " Please respond to my call, the second descendant of the God of Southwest, the Apostle of Nature-"
Not good. Goodwin's heart began to beat violently. That burning bastard is coming--
"Charge into the prison!" he shouted. "Release our imprisoned compatriots!"
Only a thin layer of defense was left in front of the prison. If they could break through them, they would be able to break into the prison.
However, it was already too late.
The Flames of Incineration descended from the sky. It passed through the roof, through the floor, and landed in front of Goodwin. The entire basement shook, and the air was dyed red.
An apostle wrapped in flames stood quietly in front of Goodwin. In his arms sat a graceful young girl. The apostle gently bent down, and the girl calmly stepped onto the burning floor.
"Bruncina, and…Tino Taylor.”Goodwin muttered their names.
The Empire's strongest apostles and summoners had arrived from the Imperial Capital.
"Fine." Goodwin raised his sword. "Since I'm determined to raise the flag of rebellion, I'll fight you sooner or later.”
Tino Taylor raised his hand, and several fireballs flew toward Goodwin.
"The Mark of the Stars." Goodwin waved his hand and shot out " Starlight ", shattering Tino Taylor's fireball. However, it was blocked by a wall of fire.
Tino Taylor passed through the wall of fire and charged at Goodwin. Goodwin swung his sword to meet the attack, but his sword was knocked away by Chantino Taylor's punch.
"Weapon Control Seal." The sword made a turn in the air and stabbed at Tino Taylor's back. At this moment, Bruncina made her move. She chanted a spell softly, and Goodwin's sword dissolved in midair.
"What happened to the one-on-one?" Goodwin questioned Tino Taylor. Tino Taylor didn't say anything and punched Goodwin's face. Meanwhile, Bruncina struck Goodwin's feet with a bolt of lightning. It seemed that she knew more than just summoning magic.
"Dark Scale Imprint, Black Iron Snake!”
"Insulating Imprint, anti-magic armor!”
"The Seal of the Sky Breaking, the Roar of the Gale!”
A streak of black flames, a long blade, and an impact suddenly joined the battle, blocking Tino Taylor and Brunsina's attacks. Clear Sky, Yan Cai, and Old Wood-the three warriors of the Obsidian Race appeared beside Goodwin.
"Do you need help?" Clear Sky asked Goodwin.
"Quite necessary." said Goodwin.
"You guys stall that apostle, I'll go kill his Summoner.”Clear Sky left behind this sentence and rushed towards Bruncina.
Tino Taylor waved his fire whip to attack Clear Sky, but Yan Cai used her long blade to cut the fire whip. Yan Cai's " Insulating Imprint " could cut off magic, and was the bane of mages. She slashed at Tino Taylor's face again, but he grabbed the knife with one hand.
Tino Taylor squeezed it lightly, and her knife shattered.
This sword had received the protection of the " Insulating Imprint " and had extremely strong magic resistance. In other words, Tino Taylor had crushed it with pure strength.
Old Wood shouted and a shockwave rushed towards Tino Taylor. Tino Taylor responded with a punch and easily shattered the air mass of the shock wave.
However, behind this mass of gas, there were several spots of starlight. They shot out from the hole in the air mass and hit Tino Taylor's chest. They failed to pierce through Tino Taylor's body, but they still forced him to take a few steps back, leaving a few bloody holes in his chest.
"So you can get hurt too." Goodwin had already flashed behind Tino Taylor and slashed at the back of his neck. Tino Taylor smashed Goodwin's sword with a backhand punch, but Goodwin borrowed another sword from the fallen soldier with Weapon Control Imprint.
At the same time, Clear Sky's Black Flame Spear had already pierced through Bruncina's body.
There was no surprise or pain on Bruncina's face. She just looked at the clear sky coldly, her eyes carrying a fleeting sadness.
Qing Kong kicked her body and pulled out his gun. A large amount of red liquid gushed out from her wound, dyeing her robe red, but she did not fall.
Gradually, her robe turned from red to brown, then from brown to black. Qing Kong could finally see clearly that what was flowing out of her wound was not blood, but mud.
"This is…Filthy Magic…?”Qing Kong exclaimed. "What…are you?”
Bruncina did not answer. She only spoke in an almost empty tone,""You don't know the darkness of the Holy Rushan Empire.”
