Chapter 1224: A Weird Situation
He looked around, at the many masters and monsters heading towards him. "Time to charge up my mighty Holy Sword technique!" and like this, he jumped over his enemies, dashing around in flashy moves, reminding Sloth who was looking from far behind in the old days.
"He is finally getting serious," Sloth turned around, "time for me to get serious here as well. I\'ll get the truth out of you, one way or another…"
William started to stack attacks over his tails until he gathered around one hundred of them. Once he gained enough confidence, he dashed directly towards the barrier. He crossed around one thousand metres in one go, to land with a huge bang over it.
"Crack open, you mfer!" he roared while pushing with everything he got to crash his way through the barrier. It was just one layer of barriers, but a group of them. And that made him penetrate through them one by one as if he was digging his way through them.
"I\'m in!" At last he managed to get past these barriers. And the moment he landed there, the first thing he felt was a restriction force landing heavily over his body.
"Hmm, that reminds me of the restriction arrays from the outer world, pretty annoying ones indeed…" he muttered while pulling a long face. Dealing with this kind of arrays was quite troublesome, as they were fixed not on the ground but over people.
It was similar in general concept to the array he once used a long time before with his team when they moved out from the academy and met the Nightmare monster.
"To disable this, I need to either find the ones controlling it and kill them, which is hard… Or…" he looked around, as many masters turned their attention fully towards the intruder, and were coming towards him.
"Fine, I\'ll kill you all to relieve it, after all I\'m not planning to let anyone slip through with their lives…" he looked at everyone coming at him, be it monster or masters, he decided to kill them all.
As he started a spree of killing here, new developments were happening everywhere!
First thing that happened and he missed was the gap he created at the barriers. It started to slowly close, without affecting the entire barrier structure. As this happened at a very slow pace, and as he kept walking deeper into the region, he missed this point.
If he noticed it, he\'d realise that his actions were closely watched by the ones controlling these arrays. This wasn\'t a good sign, as it was normally expected for the arrays to fall down on their own once a great force barged through them. But that didn\'t happen, and that was a testimony of the presence of strong masters here.
On the other hand, something new was happening at Sloth\'s side. For a reason once William vanished from his spirit sense detection, the masters who kept their mouths shut all this time started to speak!
Unlike what it was before, all of sudden many started to speak, actually everyone. That took Sloth by surprise. But when he heard what they said, he couldn\'t help but turn around, take a long look towards the direction William vanished.
"Fck it! He walked directly into a trap!" he gritted his teeth, looked at the weak masters around and couldn\'t help but decide to neglect all of them.
His main focus now was to go and catch up with William, warn him about what he just learnt.
But this was easier said than done!
"Damn! Why can\'t I get past it and he could?!!" When he barged his way towards the barrier zone, he tried to crack it open using everything he had. But unlike what he envisioned, the group of barriers proved to be hard nuts to crack.
The barriers looked more robust, with way better regenerative abilities than what they showed in front of William. "I can\'t believe I can\'t crack what that kid did with a single attack of his!" fumed with rage and impatience, he envied Fang for learning the secret behind William\'s arrays.
"Why was I this thick headed before? I should have moved aside my pride and asked that kid about his array!" He knew it was too late to regret this, but decided to ask William after all this was over.
As Sloth struggled out there to crush the arrays, some other development was happening deep inside the region. And this wasn\'t happening at William\'s side!
"That looks bad!" from one direction, Berry was struggling to breath. She was deeply situated in a pit, one that had only her and few others of the team members.
"Is everyone ok?" She used her spirit telepathy to connect with others around, but all she got was her spirit sense crushed, and telepathy to never pass through. So, she had to shout, on the top of her lungs.
"We need to get out from here," but she didn\'t get any response, and it was expected. She and the few others of the team were in a very deep pit, one that crossed over fifty metres depth.
"We need to get out first," one of the team masters said, as he and others knew how sentiment Berry usually acted.
"Something smells wrong about all of this," another team member said, "how come all of these masters came here? And they have very strong masters among their ranks."
"It\'s not useful to discuss how they got here now," Berry interrupted his words, but that master didn\'t stop.
