Dozens of Gryphon Knights, including Bob Ascher and great swordmaster Gabriel, were present. Little dark dragon Gilbert would be courting death if he were to face such a formidable force head on.
Gilbert was quite tactful under Han Shuo's urging. He didn't say a word as he charged out of the hole in the wall. The archers and spearmen who had regained their footing in Gabriel's direction suddenly fired in unison, filling the air with arrows and spears as they flew towards Gilbert.
Han Shuo and the others had long since made their preparations. Emily released her dark magic, forming an oval-shaped magic shield in the sky. Han Shuo also chanted the Dark Mist magic, covering a large area in darkness. Candice, Phoebe, and Caspian all used all sorts of techniques to cut down the arrows that pierced their way.
Han Shuo had already suffered some injuries from his previous exchange with Gabriel. It was a good thing that Han Shuo could also use necromancy magic in addition to his magical yuan. As Han Shuo chanted the incantation, several zombie warriors and two hate warriors suddenly appeared on the ground, as well as dozens of skeletal warriors, forcibly blocking the hole in the wall that Gilbert had blasted open.
These summoned dark creatures acted as meat shields, blocking the hole in the wall and causing many attacks to land on them. Add to that the effects of Emily's magic shield, Han Shuo's Dark Mist, and Phoebe, Candice, and Caspian's assistance, Gilbert's enormous body wasn't harmed in the slightest.
The dark creatures that Han Shuo had summoned were covered in arrows and spears. When the Gryphon Legion soldiers drew near, Han Shuo once again chanted the "Corpse Explosion" spell that he'd just learned, causing the flesh and blood of two hate warriors to fly through the air. The dozen or so soldiers on the side were caught off guard and all fell to the ground.
"Take to the skies and leave this place as quickly as possible!" Taking advantage of the fact that the dark creatures were still blocking the wall and the archers and spearmen were temporarily unable to display their might, Han Shuo abruptly yelled.
Gilbert didn't hesitate after hearing Han Shuo's call. His enormous body whipped its tail and two houses on the side collapsed, sending boulders flying and trees snapping. Gilbert then yelled loudly for a while as his enormous body, which had been only a few meters above the ground, suddenly shot towards the dark sky.
"Stop right there!" Bob Ascher, who was on the back of the Gryphon, had miraculously charged over at this moment. The silver spear in his hand suddenly shot out like a silver meteor, its tail trailing a brilliant afterglow as it shot towards Gilbert's back.
As a sky rider, Bob Ascher had been through hundreds of battles over the years and had seen all sorts of situations. Not only was his own strength ferocious, but his battle experience was also incomparably rich. He knew that it wouldn't be easy to catch up to Gilbert with the Gryphon's speed. The only way was to injure Gilbert first. Otherwise, even with a large group of Gryphon riders behind him, it would be impossible to keep Han Shuo and the others here.
This spear had been condensed with Bob Ascher's surging fighting aura and was dazzlingly dazzling in the pitch-black night sky. The sharp aura it contained brought enormous pressure to Han Shuo and the others. The spear whistled sharply as it flew over, seeming to borrow the force of the wind.
Han Shuo quickly chanted another bone spear incantation, and two bone spears abruptly landed on the incoming silver spear according to Han Shuo's will. Just as the two bone spears flew towards the silver spear, two crisp "pa pa" sounds were heard before they shattered. The silver spear's momentum was not hindered at all, and it continued to shoot straight towards him.
Just as Han Shuo was startled, Emily chanted a dark magic spell and the Grim Reaper's Scythe once again blossomed in the air. As Emily waved the staff in her hand downwards, the Grim Reaper's Scythe formed from dark magic swiftly chopped at the silver spear that continued to shoot towards them.
Another burst of popping sounds rang out as Emily's slender figure on Gilbert's body suddenly staggered and involuntarily took a few steps back. The Grim Reaper's Scythe formed from her mental strength also turned to dust in the blink of an eye, just like the two bone spears Han Shuo had just shot out.
But because of Emily's Grim Reaper's Scythe, much of the fighting aura on the silver spear had dissipated. Whether it was the dazzling silver light it emitted or the speed at which it attacked, all of it had suddenly decreased.
Han Shuo's heart ached at this moment, but he didn't have the time to comfort Emily. His two eyes focused unblinkingly on the spear, ready to summon the Demonslayer Edge at any moment.
Two crossbow bolts suddenly shot out from Phoebe and Candice's hands. Candice's bolt missed, but Phoebe's directly collided with the silver spear that had been weakened.
Because of this crossbow bolt, the speed of the spear was once again reduced. Gilbert's speed had increased by this time, and he'd already flown into the horizon in the blink of an eye. He'd left Bob Ascher behind on his gryphon, and the distance between the two was still gradually increasing.
"Pass down my orders, the entire city is on lockdown. No one is allowed to enter, but not leave. Shut down all the transportation matrixes that lead to other cities. No one is allowed to activate them without my orders, or they'll be killed without question! " Bob Ascher's wild roars traveled far and wide, and even Han Shuo and the others could hear them clearly.
"Are you alright?" Han Shuo's body relaxed when he saw that he was temporarily out of danger, but his expression tightened as he rushed to Emily's side, supporting Emily and asking urgently.
Emily tore off the mask on her face and her face was a bit pale, but her heart was filled with sweetness when she saw Han Shuo's sincere concern for her. She laughed lightly and said a bit weakly, "I'm fine, I've just overused my magic. Don't worry, how are you?"
"I'm fine as well, I'll recover after a few days of rest!" Han Shuo also smiled and comforted Emily.
On the other side, Phoebe's expression was a bit uncomfortable when she saw Han Shuo and Emily's intimate actions. However, Emily was injured right now, and she'd been injured while protecting the others. It wasn't appropriate for her to say anything when Han Shuo expressed his concern for her.
Coughing lightly, Phoebe walked to Han Shuo's side amidst the howling cold wind. Worry also appeared on her beautiful face as she reached out a slender hand to wipe away the blood at the corner of Han Shuo's mouth. She said reproachfully, "You're spitting out blood and you say you're fine!"
Phoebe's light cough and her current actions immediately made Emily realize something. Emily, who'd been supported by Han Shuo, smiled lightly and pushed Han Shuo away nonchalantly. She maintained a distance of two arm's length from Han Shuo before saying, "What do we do now?"
"Now that Valen City has been completely sealed off, I'm starting to worry about the safety of others with Bob Ascher's power." Han Shuo's face was dark as he looked at Emily.
Nodding, Emily said, "That's right. His fury just now wasn't something that could be easily pacified. All along, the transportation matrixes connecting Valen City to other cities have never been sealed. This is equivalent to cutting off all communication between Valen City and the outside world. Whether it's orders or news from the Empire or other places, Valen City won't be able to receive them. Bob Ascher definitely won't let the matter rest if he dares do this. "
"My opponent this time is water archmage Howard, Bob Ascher's follower. I originally had the confidence to take care of him, but he found helpers and captured me alive in the end. He wanted some things from the druidic Order after I was captured, but I would rather die than give them to him. But before you came over tonight, he said that he wanted to capture my little Angelica to threaten me. I'm worried about her safety. "Caspian finally came clean at this moment.
"Honored master, just where are we flying to? If you don't make a decision soon, we'll have to leave Valen City! "Gilbert's voice suddenly sounded in the howling cold wind.
Valen City was in a mess now, so the best thing to do was to leave as soon as possible. Leaving this circle of trouble was the wisest choice. However, if they left now, those who were still in Valen City would likely run into great trouble. Han Shuo had a hesitant expression on his face as he looked at the faces of the others.
"My senior brother treats me very well, I can't ignore his safety!" Phoebe spoke resolutely when she saw Han Shuo look at her.
"I can't give up on my comrade!" Candice followed.
When Han Shuo looked at Emily, Emily smiled sweetly and said to Han Shuo, "Whatever you say!"
"Gilbert, turn around and return to the hotel!" After a moment of silence, Han Shuo stomped down on the back of the black dragon and called out lowly.
