Synthetic Wizard

Chapter 157: Chapter 119: No Need to Wait Anymore

Jensen couldn’t believe it.

Why was the power Sunan displayed at this moment so much stronger than what they had investigated and predicted?

The two were not on the same level at all!

Despite mobilizing so many experts and with the help of a Holy Artifact, they suffered heavy casualties in just one face-off.

This kind of power sends chills down one’s spine!

What exactly is happening?

“Ah!”

While Jensen was still uncertain, a slightly weaker Legendary Knight could no longer hold on. The starlight shrouding him instantly extinguished, and the next moment, his entire body exploded into a cloud of blood mist.

Seeing this, Jensen’s heart tightened, and not daring to delay any longer, he gritted his teeth, extending his hand to press on the book.

Buzz!

The starry sky suddenly trembled.

The surrounding stars buzzed and trembled, as if drawn by an invisible force, falling towards Sunan like meteors, instantly engulfing him!

Boom!

The roar of the stars colliding echoed through the void.

The huge commotion seemed to shake the entire space, as if it were about to collapse.

The starry sky around visibly dimmed, and the more distant areas had already become blurred.

Jensen, sweating profusely, panted heavily, his gaze fixed intently in Sunan’s direction.

This strike nearly drained all the energy from the Book of Stars, leaving only the last bit barely maintaining the Starry Sky Domain from dissipating.

This was also his last trump card.

If this couldn’t deal with Sunan, then he truly had no options left.

The silver spikes around had somehow completely dissipated at some point.

Everyone finally caught their breath, their eyes fixated on the intertwined flames and starlight in the distance.

“Did we take him down?”

“He should be dead, right? Even a Tier Two Legendary Knight couldn’t withstand that strike!”

“He must be seriously injured if not dead!”

The flames and starlight slowly faded away.

Jensen and the other two subconsciously swallowed, their eyes wide open, but what happened next made them feel as if they had been plunged into an ice cave, their limbs chilling.

They saw Sunan standing leisurely in place; not only was he unharmed, but even his clothes weren’t missing a piece.

Unscathed!

“How is this possible?!”

Jensen’s eyes were full of shock and disbelief.

The strongest attack with all the power of the Book of Stars couldn’t even scratch Sunan!

The faces of the other two turned deathly pale in an instant, despair written all over them.

Faced with such a terrifying opponent, they had no chance of victory.

Sunan glanced at the now dim and lifeless Extreme Protection Ring on his right hand, slightly surprised.

He had to admit, that last strike was quite powerful.

The 1,000 defense points of the Extreme Protection Ring couldn’t withstand it, and it was only thanks to the Demon Pattern Core’s defense that the excess damage was negated.

In terms of defense points, Sunan estimated the strike’s power to be at least 1,200 to 1,400.

Some weaker Level 3 Wizard Apprentices would be severely injured even if they could withstand it.

The Red Heart was probably gravely injured by this move in the past.

Retracting his gaze, Sunan looked up at Jensen and the other two.

Facing Sunan’s indifferent gaze, Jensen and the others instinctively took a step back, their faces turning pale.

By now, they understood that the sect had severely underestimated Sunan’s strength.

In just two or three short years, Sunan’s power had grown to a very frightening level, far exceeding before.

Even the Archbishop Ovijou probably couldn’t take down Sunan.

But they could no longer relay this information back to the sect.

In the midst of their terrified and despairing eyes, countless silver lights once again attacked, taking over the entire view like a storm.

…

In the hall.

The nobles, witnessing the sudden disappearance of Sunan and Jensen, were left looking at each other in confusion.

“Can Priest Jensen take down Sunan?”

Baron Bedman, the current lord of Ya’an City, wiped his sweat, unable to hide his concern.

If Sunan wasn’t taken down, the other nobles could escape, but his territory was here, and if he didn’t flee, he would die; if he did, he would lose everything.

“Don’t worry.”

Seeing the anxious expressions of the people, Count Nolai offered reassurance.

“Priest Jensen came prepared this time and is sure to defeat Sunan!”

“The Count is right.”

“Sunan is just one person; he certainly can’t match up to Priest Jensen and the others!”

“Seeing how confident Priest Jensen looked, there’s definitely no problem.”

As if to suppress their inner unease, everyone echoed Count Nolai’s words.

However, despite their words, no one felt the slightest inclination to stay in the hall any longer. They immediately wanted to leave the council chamber and gather the army outside to surround the place.

But as soon as they stepped out of the hall, they heard a tumult of shouting and fighting.

“What’s going on?” Count Nolai asked with a frown.

A guard immediately stepped forward to report, “My Lord Count, two monsters have appeared in the courtyard.”

“What monsters?” Count Nolai’s face was full of bewilderment.

Wasn’t Sunan supposed to be occupied by the Starfire Sect people? How could there be monsters?

Could it be those Stone Golems again?

However, Count Nolai soon found he didn’t need to wonder.

With a loud crash, the distant wall collapsed, and amidst the swirling dust, a giant lizard covered in black and red scales, with sparks flickering between its teeth, and an entirely black giant spider with blade-like sharp forelimbs charged out.

The two monsters were covered in blood, as if drenched in a bloody rain, having killed an unknown number of guards on their way in from outside.

“What are those monsters?”

“They’re coming!”

“Stop them quickly!”

The nobles present had brought numerous guards with them, all gathered not far outside the council chamber. Upon hearing the commotion, they rushed over, and upon seeing the giant lizard and giant spider before them, they were all taken aback. Yet, under the orders of their respective lords, they bravely charged forward.
