Chapter 20: The Monstrous Shadow on the Fortress. Earl Vienna Attacked
“Fuse!”
William shouted in his heart.
Although he had the Ancient Dragon God Bloodline blocking for him, he could still clearly sense the enormous pressure coming from the direction of Fort Vienna.
That tiny bit of feeling of being powerless in the face of the vastness caused him great pain.
‘I want to become stronger! I want to become the strongest! There is nothing that can stop me.’
It was equal to having all the opportunities upon having the Stealing System! He shouldn’t admit defeat! He wanted to walk to the peak on this path!
William’s face was serious. His eyes were filled with a strong fighting spirit as he stared at the sky in the direction of Fort Vienna.
A cold mechanical voice sounded in his heart.
“Ding! Initiate fusion! Fusion degree… 1% …”
Catherine was also observing William while he was looking at the sky.
The more Catherine looked, the more shocked she was. She saw the fighting spirit in this young man’s eyes.
Could it be that this young man didn’t know that that powerful aura was at least at a Noble Rank? Moreover, it was a powerful existence amongst the Noble Rank.
Catherine didn’t understand. This young man was someone who had just awakened his Endowed Supernatural Ability. How could he be able to withstand such powerful pressure and not fall?
She did not understand why this young man dared to look directly at that powerful existence and even had a fighting spirit in his eyes!
Could it be that he did not know how little he was?
Catherine was filled with curiosity towards him for some time. She made up her mind that she would investigate all about this young man when she returned.
She became more determined. Perhaps the death of the Vengeful Wraith’s leader had something to do with this young man.
Suddenly! The huge pressure in the sky dissipated.
Catherine was the first to stand up.
A huge monstrous shadow suddenly appeared in the sky above Fort Vienna!
The roars of all kinds of monsters echoed in the wilderness again, as if it was a joyous tune to this huge monstrous shadow.
The tallest building in Vienna could only reach the knees of this monstrous shadow. The monstrous shadow’s entire body was covered by a pitch-black object, and its head was wearing a helmet. Two pitch-black curved horns grew on its head as if it was a demon god from hell. The cold and strange purple pupils looked down at the ground.
No one dared to look into those eyes.
Catherine subconsciously lowered her head.
Then she thought of something and suddenly looked to the side. That young man named William was looking into the eyes of the shadow!
William’s eyes flickered, and he quickly lowered his head as if he had sensed Catherine’s gaze.
However, Catherine could not forget the scene just now. The young man raised his head and had a serious look on his face. His eyes were filled with a strong fighting spirit as if he wanted to compete with the demon god.
Boom!
A loud sound came from the sky.
A huge storm spread in all directions, with Fort Vienna as the center.
The storm streaked past the place where Catherine and the others were in just a few seconds. The huge storm pulled up the tree branches and blew them into the distance.
George and Martin used their hands to protect the four students.
Catherine looked at the sky in shock. A huge figure appeared in the sky. The storm just now was the result of the battle between him and the monstrous shadow.
The cries of the monsters in the wilderness instantly stopped.
“It’s Earl Vienna!” Catherine could not help but cry out.
Everyone knew Earl Vienna, the most powerful existence of the Fort Vienna and the Guardian God of the fortress. His iron statue was at the center of Fort Vienna.
Everyone heaved a sigh of relief when they saw Earl Vienna. However, William noticed that Shirley, who was beside him, curled her lips slightly as if she was dissatisfied with Earl Vienna.
“Get out of the Fort Vienna!” Earl Vienna came from the sky, followed by a thunderous roar, “Get out of my territory!”
Boom!
Thunder rumbled, and the sky quickly darkened. Even the light pillar that illuminated the sky was covered by dark clouds, and the red moon hid behind the dark clouds.
The Earth fell into darkness.
The crowd could not see what was happening in the sky. They could only rely on the occasional explosion of thunder and lightning to see the battle in the sky.
The explosion sound continued, but they gradually went further and further away.
Roar!
Oh!
Hiss!
The cries in the wilderness grew louder and closer.
Catherine frowned and shouted at George, “Run! Run in the direction of the military camp! The rest of you follow me! The monster riots! We must inform all the adventurers who are still in the wilderness to quickly retreat to the fortress!”
Catherine had already climbed onto her horse as soon as she finished her words. She looked deeply at William before leaving as if she wanted to remember this unusual young man in her mind.
She would have wanted to know all the secrets of this young man right now if it wasn’t for the sudden monster riot.
“Hyah!”
Catherine quickly left with the people who were guarding George and the others and rushed towards the direction where the monster cries were the most frequent.
The Hope Society was not only an organization that maintained order, but also the most important existence to maintain the Human Alliance. They dared to open the wilderness, face the powerful monsters, challenge the monsters, and even dared to stop the monsters!
The monster riot might not destroy the fortress, but all the humans that remained in the wilderness would die without a doubt.
Catherine and everyone in the Hope Society knew this, but the responsibility of the Hope Society was to protect the humans, not just the humans in the fortress. They had to fight with the monsters to save more people.
George and Martin looked at Catherine’s back and raised their right hands to their hearts at the same time. They bowed slightly to show their respect.
George and Martin had already stood up and jumped onto their horses just as the four students were about to imitate their teachers. They shouted, “Let’s Go! Children, follow us if you don’t want to become food for the monsters and show up in their feces tomorrow! Hyah!”
William and the others quickly jumped onto their horses and headed towards the direction of the military camp, clipping on to the belly of the horse with all their might.
..
The road was covered with broken branches.
Catherine skillfully rode on her horse, crossing one obstacle after another.
Suddenly, there was the sound of horse hooves in front of them. They could see that it was Catherine’s subordinates when they got closer. The people who had stayed by the corpse of the Vengeful Wraith’s leader.
“Why are you back?” Catherine didn’t slow down but waved her hand, indicating for them to follow.
Those men followed them and asked, “We saw a huge monstrous shadow appear in the direction of the fortress, is the fortress broken?”
Catherine glanced at that person, shook her head, and said, “No, Earl Vienna has already chased away the monstrous shadow. Quickly go and inform all the adventurers to return to the fortress. The monsters are going to riot again!”
The wilderness was too big, with only a few people, it was difficult to inform all the adventurers, and the monsters were getting closer and closer.
They could only separate and choose a direction each to save as many adventurers as possible.
“Catherine!” One of the men did not leave. He rode side by side with Catherine and said, “I found something different. There is the aura of a mage here.”
“Allen! Are you sure?” Catherine’s eyes widened as she looked at the man beside her in disbelief.
