Chapter 2332 Crow's Prophecy XI_2

And this is merely the beginning.

While the others were still reacting, a web of fire had already descended from mid-air, and for a moment it was like purgatory, beams of light flashing and disappearing, catching the Grey Knights off guard as they fell one by one, howling. But they were not the worst off, for the magic guided armor on them provided some defense; the truly unfortunate ones were the mercenaries who fled far away.

For the Clockwork Fairy, there was no distinction in distance; as long as it was within the maximum range of magic, it was the target for the first attack.

The dazzling light, akin to a shower of golden rain, burned through the soft human bodies, turning them to ashes. And the unprotected mercenaries were almost pierced through by the straight beams, the high temperatures igniting their thick clothing, instantly turning them into pillars of flame.

This scene was like divine punishment descending upon the world; the adventurers were stunned, merely watching as the battlefield transformed, and they even forgot to record it all.

Even Fang Hong was somewhat caught off guard by the power displayed by this combination. Although it was almost certainly not as enduring and stable as the Spear Cavalry, the suddenness of the first round of concentrated strikes, combined with the flexibility of the Fairy Construct itself, were enough to compensate for everything.

Even further...

From the simplistic Combat Fairy on the Dwarf's blueprint, to the silver Bee Swarm of Istania.

And now, today, to the construct he had built himself, that black star he saw in the Summer's End Tower, as if finally revealing itself to the world.

He still didn't know if it was really the legacy of the Numelin Elves, but there was no doubt that the Combat Fairy plan was absolutely viable, and today's battle was enough to prove that. Although it was still far from what he saw in the Phantom Realm, the complete form of the Combat Fairy exhibited by the black star.

But at least, it should have a place.

The blood-red Ominous Star was slowly rising, hanging high above everyone's head.

Fang Hong watched through the lens, a view like multiple insect eyes, and calmly issued attack orders. The blood-red star scattered immediately after one round of attacks, pursuing those who scattered to launch a second round. Every time the intersecting light blinked, it almost invariably claimed a life.

Even Elisa was somewhat surprised; this was probably the first time she saw her captain with such an aspect. She looked up at the scene—not impulsive, but incredibly calm; countless dark red constructs following an unreplicable trajectory, each seemingly possessing its own soul and will, an independent entity.

It was like a consciousness collective on the battlefield, calmly observing everything, controlling everything, becoming an army as one person. The enemy was not its opponent, its opponent from beginning to end, was only itself. Elisa thought with some surprise, she seemed to perceive this detail:

"Ade seems a bit angry."

"Mr. Ade seems a bit angry?"

Mei, in a child's voice, said to Xiesta beside her; she couldn't read minds, but could vaguely discern the meaning behind Fang Hong's series of operations.

And Miss Maid remained silent without speaking, she just glance unnoticed at the second floor window of the motel, and remembered everything she saw in the refugee camp, which made her understand the reasons behind it all. She lowered her hands, and in her silent gaze, there was rare softness.

The knights were completely shaken, and the mercenaries were not worth mentioning, they were already in a state of collapse from the beginning, they could only flee, but Fang Hong didn't plan to let them go. He could have spared them, but they didn't deserve his compassion, especially their actions to take Hilveld away had thoroughly angered him.

He didn't need to speak.

He didn't understand what the so-called prophecy truly meant—

But he could at least let these people know what it meant to provoke a Combat Artisan.

"Especially since some people don't realize that," Dong observed from a distance, having already received word from Chenguang's men, and hurried over, but all he saw was this scene. The dark crystal he held in his hand was flashing with dark red light: "He's not just excellent."

Dong listened to the girl's voice coming from it, remained silent for a while before speaking: "Now he's stirred up big trouble."

"Dong, are you saying the Crow's Claw Sanctuary won't let it rest?"

"I'm saying there's more than just this problem," the young man gently shook his head, "and it's not just the Crow's Claw Sanctuary, the ones looking to find trouble with him will likely be plenty... the Alliance will react, and there's the Descendants of Flor," he sighed, "Your Highness the Princess, you've really brought me a big trouble this time..."

"That's why I said I owe you a favor; he has always been very adept at stirring trouble, and the troubles he caused are countless," Sophie smiled, her avatar appeared beside the young man, and together they silently watched the dark red glow in the distance.

"The Descendants of Flor have indeed been looking for this opportunity, but I believe he should be able to withstand it, once you get close to him, you'll discover what makes this person special," she paused, then continued, "He's become even stronger."
