Chapter 379 Bet on my life!
Nasir City.
The extraordinary people and ordinary people in the entire city are on high alert, waiting for the enemy that may arrive at any time. The depressing atmosphere before the war is like a thick, dark cloud, silently shrouding everyone's heart.
The waiting process is the most tormenting. Time seems to be stretched, and every minute and every second is filled with torment.
"Well... I was hoping someone would come."
In Byrne's absence, eldest son Darren temporarily took over the command.
He was wearing an iron mask and standing high on the clock tower in the city, smiling under the iron mask, and the people around him were most of the members of the Fischer family.
Christine, Helen, Felix, Kano, Vanessa, and Andre were all here, and no more than 500 meters away from Darren.
In recent years, although Vanessa has been unable to make any breakthroughs in the sequence of the Path of Order, she has reached the middle level of qualitative change on the path of a spellcaster. Combined with the ability of the fourth-level "Judge", her strength should not be underestimated.
Andre's Path of Order has only reached the third stage of "Hand of Judgment", but he has already reached the transformation period in terms of blood power. The talent he possesses even far exceeds that of Viscount Bester back then. He is undoubtedly a genius blood knight.
Among all the main members of Fisher's family, only Lillian was in the underground magnificent hall, constantly performing the ceremony to awaken the great Lord of the Lost, and did not come to prepare for the war.
In addition, the backbones of the Dawn Order in the city were also on high alert, ready to fight at any time.
Yager, the former mayor of the "Head of the Dawn", Moore, the leader of the "Dagger Brotherhood", Archibald, the "General of the Nasir Guard", Theo, the "Old Butler", Ian, the "High Priest of the Poseidon Cult", and March, the "Emerald Elf".
Except for March, whose fourth-level sequence of the Natural Path, "Tree Shepherd", did not yet exist, the other five had already reached the fourth level of their respective paths.
In other directions of the city of Nasir, there are many extraordinary people from the viscount families on the east coast and the Dawn Sect guarding it. Among them, there are seven people who have reached the upper level of qualitative change.
There is no doubt that even if the monarchs and powerful men are not present, this force cannot be underestimated under any circumstances.
In the army that was ready for battle, Archibald, who was wearing a general's uniform and had a full beard, took a deep breath among the crowd and asked anxiously:
"What's the current situation? Chris and the others haven't come back yet... Damn it, the Star Embrace Society and the Serenity Society are fine, but those extraordinary nobles who colluded with the cultists really deserve to die!"
He was in a bad temper and took a deep breath, cursing those damn enemies continuously.
The special seal that was originally in Byrne's hands is now in Archibald's hands. As long as any enemy comes to Nasir City, he will immediately activate the special seal and order the army to provide endurance for the main extraordinary people.
Although the army's firearms were all replaced from flintlocks to breech-loading rifles, and artillery had also improved, they were still unable to compete with the powerful monarchs.
There was a tense atmosphere in the air, as if something unpredictable might break out at any time.
At this moment, Kano, whose fate track was "Alert", suddenly raised his head and said:
“Here it comes!”
Soon, the news of the enemy's attack was spread throughout the city through "singing" by the blood recipients of the Road of Love.
There is a powerful sense of oppression in the air, invisible but omnipresent, as if it weighs a thousand pounds, pressing heavily on everyone's chest, making it extremely difficult to breathe. It does not come from the violent storms in nature, nor from the physical squeezing of heavy objects, but rather a shock and awe that comes from the depths of the soul.
As the feeling of oppression grew, the sounds around people seemed to become distant and blurred. Only the sound of their own rapid breathing and heartbeats echoed in their ears, clear and very strong. Many soldiers coming and going on the streets involuntarily slowed down their pace or even stopped moving forward, trying to find a little breathing space under the siege of this force.
In this area shrouded in a sense of oppression, time seemed to have frozen and every second seemed exceptionally long. The expressions on people's faces became solemn and complicated, with fear and uneasiness about unknown forces. They looked at each other without words, and they could read the common feelings in each other's eyes.
Two terrifying figures appeared in the field of vision and flew into the sky near the city of Nasir.
The remaining two people of the Quiet Words.
They are the "Silver Poet" Afafu, who is below the monarch, and the new king of Siat, who has reached the middle monarch in recent years...
"Sword of Redemption" Noah!
Archibald let out a "fuck" and activated the "Special Seal" immediately. Many ordinary soldiers and extraordinary people in the army began to provide endurance for the main force. Coupled with the effect of the Infinite Light Barrier, basically they could recover quickly as long as they were not killed instantly by the enemy's power.
Noah, standing tall in the sky, stands straight, like an ancient pine tree that has weathered the wind and frost but still stands tall. His back is not bent at all, and his posture reveals an unshakable firmness and confidence.
The arrogant and indifferent voice spread throughout the city, as if a king from high above was speaking to his subjects.
"None of your family head Byrne's people will come back."
He looked around the city, convinced that there was no force that could rival his own, and continued calmly:
"And now this city must pay the price for its disobedience to the royal family of Yardley. All of Nasir, you must be buried with the evil that has stained you."
Suddenly, a loud laugh was heard from the bell tower!
“Hahahahahahahaha!”
That arrogant laugh immediately caught Noah's attention.
He looked over coldly and found a middle-aged man wearing an iron mask.
"Very good!"
Darren's smile under the iron mask was very rampant, and his whole body was shaking with excitement!
"I have never killed a monarch-level transcendent before. Originally, I wanted to kill the captives from the Mist Walker family, but those guys wouldn't let me kill them. They even said there was a possibility of reconciliation with the Mist Walker family."
"Today, I finally have the chance to kill a monarch-level transcendent with my own hands, and he's the king of Syat! It's so memorable!"
Noah frowned expressionlessly.
What is that person saying?
He simply could not understand how the son of Bayern Fischer, a man who had not even reached the level of a monarch, could dare to say such arrogant words.
"I have never met anyone as arrogant and stupid as you."
Noah stared at Darren on the bell tower in the distance. The man couldn't even fly, yet he wanted to kill him.
"You are nothing but bugs in front of me!"
"Darren Fisher, your father is a regicide who committed a heinous crime, and you actually want to do the same thing. This is absolutely unforgivable!"
As soon as he said that, he released a terrifying aura!
Everyone suddenly felt a sense of physical tension and discomfort, their breathing became rapid and shallow, and their hearts beat faster.
Many people even experience negative emotions such as fear, anxiety, and uneasiness, and feel helpless and confused.
The "Sword of Redemption" from the Divine Blood Royal Family, his aura is so powerful!
But on the other hand, that momentum inspired the fighting spirit and courage of a madman like Darren, making him more determined and decisive, his thinking more focused, his attention more focused, and his body and mind preparing for the upcoming challenges.
Christine in the wheelchair took a deep breath. As a manager, she was not good at fighting. She could only mutter to herself:
"Is this a transcendent at the middle level of the monarch? He is really too powerful. I wonder if our 'trump card' can be enough to overcome this difficulty..."
Andre sensed his wife's fear and smiled at her.
"Don't worry, we will be the ones who win in the end!"
"Christine... I swear to you in the name of the Knight that I will never let the Fisher family lose the war, and I will never let the city of Nasir be destroyed!"
On the clock tower, Darren sneered under the iron mask. The madness that had been suppressed in his heart for many years finally boiled over again.
He stretched out a finger and pointed it at King Siat's "Sword of Redemption" Noah in the sky, completely ignoring the huge gap in strength between the two sides.
"King of Syat, I want to make a bet with you!"
"I'll bet my life on it!"
