BXBX NOVEL Chapter 920 Attacking The Monster Gates
During the past hour, he started to scatter many vibrant ores all over the place. He knew he was burning the ships at the shore, letting himself entrapped with the monsters at the gates, waiting for a miracle to happen at the end to save his life. And he didn't believe in miracles.
"Make sure to keep the monsters at your end busy," William would deal with anything, anything but these scary monsters.
"Why do I feel like you are using me for something else?" Sloth wasn't stupid, not to mention he was watching William all the time using his spirit sense.
When William spoke with him just now, he was advancing towards the gate in front of him for the first time since coming here. What William asked him to do meant he planned to do something grand, something more threatening than the formation William asked him to do.
"Just lay down the formation and keep the monsters busy," William didn't have time to explain what he was going to do. As he said his words, he finally arrived at the gate closest to him.
To cut the connection, he could use different approaches. The simplest of all was by infusing a space element, alien to the ones controlling these gates, to interrupt the connection. But he had no space element, so he couldn't use this method.
He decided to use a small array, one that would surround the gates and disturb the connection. Each gate spanned for hundreds of metres, a distance he could cross with a single dash.
"Time to make you feel panic," William flashed around one gate and scattered the materials around while running. He didn't activate the array and went directly toward another gate.
As the monsters coming out from these gates were weak, he didn't face any trouble to go to each gate and surround it. Yet midway through, he heard loud roars drawing near his place, meaning the scary monsters were heading his way.
"Didn't I tell you to keep them busy?" William expected such an outcome and wasn't startled by what happened. Yet he blamed the old man for letting this happen when he didn't visit half of the gates yet.
"There are too many of them, and we can't stop them all!" Sloth said in defence, "We are halfway through. Can you hold up? We'll come to rescue you after getting rid of this formation."
"No need, I'm going to come to you soon enough," William knew destroying half the gates was enough, so he didn't hesitate to activate the arrays he laid already.
At the same time, he took out his bow and released lots of arrows around. The arrows were armed with grenades and landed in areas filled with vibrant ores.
The moment the two met, a very violent wave of explosions occurred. The explosions were very fierce, fierce enough to raise pillars of fire toward the high sky.
William saw this and got satisfied by such a result. He just needed to release a few more waves of his arrows, before the entire world around would be filled with deadly explosions.
"Let me see how you are going to deal with this," William evilly smirked, before turning his face to examine the gates he already visited. The array he activated released something like a dome over each and every gate he visited. This didn't stop the incoming monsters, but it felt threatening to those watching this from afar.
The dark leaders now realised that William was posing a greater threat than Sloth. They didn't hesitate to issue orders, moving half of the scary monsters to deal with William.
They couldn't close an eye over the threat of Sloth and others posed. So they got to divide up their forces. As for asking for half of the scary monsters to go toward William was thanks to the dense layer of explosions and fire that this lad created around him.
Passing through such a layer was risky, and many monsters would be gravely harmed or even killed. So they sent a large number, just to make sure they'd get rid of William once and for all.
As more roars came towards him, he knew the enemy was starting to take him quite seriously. William didn't hesitate to move forward, heading towards more gates, and cutting the connection using his array.
He knew he had limited time here, but every single extra gate cut with the dark leaders was a gain and not a loss.
He estimated himself to have at most half an hour before the place would be overrun by monsters he couldn't handle. So he kept using his dash technique and didn't care about any weak monster around, even bashing directly into many through his dashes.
His aim was the gates, and nothing else. His estimates were correct, and in half an hour, a few scary monsters managed to bypass the sea of fire raging around. William once spotted them, knew he had no time to fool around anymore, and released more arrows toward the fire zone, adding more intensity to them.
"Go, keep them busy for me," William still wanted to cut the connection with more gates, so he released his two monstrous weapons, turned around, and dashed in the totally opposite direction from these scary monsters.
In normal situations, sending his two monstrous to meet up high-end monsters was suicidal. But this time the monsters which passed the fire region were filled with tons of wounds, and were this close to dying anyway.
They spent most of their spirit power just to bypass the fire. They were weak, severely hurt, and weren't this threatening anymore.
William knew even if he went there and dealt with them, nothing bad would happen to him. But he had no time to do that.
