Chapter 145: Sven Shows His Power
Seeing this situation, Constantine couldn’t help but exclaim, “Oh my god, look under Sven’s feet, isn’t that the Paladin’s Guardian Aura?”
Sure enough, everyone then discovered that in the chaotic battlefield, under the feet of God’s Warrior Sven, a peculiar Magic Array had opened at some point. This white Magic Array floated close to the ground, moving back and forth with Sven’s steps, never leaving him, just like his shadow.
Although Old Xie hadn’t seen it before, he had heard about it from the Old Mage. The Light Paladins, a specialty of the Empire of Light in the south, were good at using various Auras to buff themselves and their teammates, thereby improving the overall combat power of the troops. And the Guardian Aura under Sven’s feet now was the simplest one among many Auras.
“Strange!” Old Xie frowned after discovering this and said, “The Guardian Aura is a special skill that only elites among Light Paladins can use. It has always been a secret not passed on by the Empire of Light. Even our Griffin Kingdom, also humans, would absolutely not teach it. Why is it appearing under a barbarian’s feet now? Could this kid be the Pope’s Illegitimate Child?”
“Don’t talk nonsense!” Constantine heard this and angrily punched Old Xie’s chest, saying with slight anger, “The Pope is an esteemed elder after all, and the spokesperson of the Deity on the Continent. You can’t just slander him like that! And you should also pay attention to your own status! If people from the Church of Light hear this, it will definitely cause a big disturbance!” Obviously, Constantine was still full of respect for people related to the Deity.
But Old Xie obviously didn’t care. He shrugged and said, “So what? I was just saying it casually. If the Pope is really as modest, loving, and merciful as the Light Doctrine brags, naturally he won’t hold my rudeness against me. If he insists on making a big fuss over such a small matter, wouldn’t that be slapping his own face?”
“Oh my god, where do you get so many twisted theories?” Constantine said speechlessly.
“Hehe!” Old Xie immediately laughed proudly.
While Old Xie was still flirting with Constantine, the situation on the field had also undergone earth-shattering changes. Originally, Sven was facing the siege of more than 30 experts, obviously having no chance of winning. Because although the other side didn’t have Saint Domain Experts, there were 8 or 9 Level 6 characters, and the other dozen or so besiegers were all Level 5. And Sven had just stepped into the Saint Domain recently, only a few times stronger than Level 6 Experts. Perhaps he could defeat the siege of 5 or 6 Level 6 Experts, but it was absolutely impossible to beat so many experts. Especially since these people had both long-range and close-range attacks, a reasonable mix of professions, and had cooperated for years, their combined power was even greater. Encirclement and Annihilation of a Saint Domain Expert wasn’t very difficult either.
In this situation, Sven might be able to hold on for a while in the beginning with his thick Battle Qi, but with the massive consumption of Battle Qi, defeat was only a matter of time. Old Xie naturally saw this too, but he wasn’t in a hurry, because he wanted to see Sven’s bottom line, and then wait until Sven was about to fail before making a move, so as to sell the other side a favor to the greatest extent. Moreover, the barbarian army was currently at an advantage. With the protection of the Guardian Aura, there were almost no casualties, so Old Xie didn’t need to worry about their losses.
However, the development of things was completely beyond Old Xie’s expectations. It turned out that after being besieged a few times, that God’s Warrior Sven immediately knew he couldn’t beat so many people. Coupled with the despicable behavior of his opponents, under his rage, he actually used a bizarre skill.
They saw Sven first sweep his sword, drawing a circle of fierce Battle Qi, forcing away the several flies beside him, then suddenly inserted his sword into the ground, knelt on one knee himself, and then began to pray with his head down. With his prayer, the wind and clouds in the sky suddenly changed. A holy white light descended from the sky, shining on Sven’s body, and then was absorbed by the strange Battle Armor on Sven’s body. Then, Sven’s body gradually grew larger with the influx of white light. Even that Battle Armor seemed to have spirituality, growing larger with Sven’s body, always fitting perfectly on Sven’s body.
The pirates were not fools either. In the beginning, they were a bit strange as to why Sven knelt down. Because they were afraid of an ambush, no one dared to go forward. By the time the white light descended and Sven’s body grew larger, they immediately knew something was wrong. Obviously, Sven was preparing a powerful ultimate move. So the pirates hurriedly rushed forward again, intending to interrupt Sven’s prayer.
Unfortunately, it was too late now. With a long roar to the sky from Sven, a powerful Qi energy surged out from around his body, knocking away all the pirates who rushed up. The Spells cast by the Mages in the back were also shattered by this powerful Qi energy, unable to threaten Sven at all.
Then, Sven suddenly stood up. Seeing Sven at this time, he was completely different from just now. His head alone had skyrocketed to over three meters, and the muscles all over his body became more swollen. Especially the Qi energy emanating from his body was simply like a solid substance. Obviously, Sven at this time, whether in strength or Battle Qi, had made a qualitative leap.
Sven, who stood up again, didn’t waste any words this time. He directly switched his sword to his left hand, then swung his right arm, making a throwing posture. Although his right hand was empty, after swinging it out, people were surprised to see a hammer made of white energy suddenly fly out from his hand, and then fiercely hit a pirate Mage.
That Level 6 Mage was the person who posed the greatest threat to Sven here, so Sven chose him as the first target. Although that Mage had a Magic Shield protecting him, this energy light hammer didn’t know what bizarre attribute it had, it actually passed directly through the Magic Shield and heavily hit the Mage. Immediately, it made that guy spit out a mouthful of blood.
However, the power of this energy hammer was obviously not in its lethality; otherwise, with Sven’s strength as a Sword Saint, such a solid hit would definitely kill this Mage on the spot, instead of just spitting a mouthful of blood. After that Mage was hit, he just felt his whole body stiffen, as if he had lost control of his body and even Magic Power in an instant. Let alone moving, he couldn’t even cast Spells. Obviously, this was the true effect of Sven’s energy hammer.
After throwing the energy hammer, Sven knew the opponent would definitely be immobilized, so he didn’t care about anything else and directly rushed over, swinging his Heavy Sword and sweeping it across. The pitiful Mage, being immobilized all over, couldn’t escape at all and could only watch helplessly as the big sword hacked over, scared almost to the point of losing control of his bladder and bowels.
Fortunately, a Warrior subordinate responsible for protecting him saw something wrong at this time and hurriedly shielded him, while meeting Sven’s Heavy Sword with a huge metal shield. Then, the sword and shield intersected. People only heard a loud noise, and then saw that the metal shield infused with Battle Qi by a Level 5 Expert was actually easily shattered like glass, failing to block Sven’s horizontal slash. Sven’s Heavy Sword only paused slightly before continuing to sweep across. Thus, that strong Demonkin Warrior and the Mage behind him were actually hacked into four pieces by Sven with one sword.
Seeing this scene, almost everyone present was stunned. A Warrior actually released powerful magic, and even hacked out such a shocking scene. You have to know, normally, even at worst, a Level 5 Expert could barely block a Sword Saint’s attack with a shield, at most suffering heavy injuries. However, with that strike just now, Sven not only shattered the shield but also split the Warrior’s metal Armor in half, and also shattered the Mage’s Magic Shield, cutting him in half at the waist. Such terrifying power had obviously reached an extremely terrifying level. Perhaps his realm hadn’t entered Legend yet, but in terms of the destructive power of this one sword alone, it was probably not far from Legend.
Even Old Xie, seeing this, asked himself and knew he absolutely couldn’t reach this level. Perhaps after transforming, his strength was not weaker than this Sven using his ultimate move, but in terms of Battle Qi, Old Xie was far inferior; after all, he had only cultivated for 13 years. And to achieve such destructive power, besides strength, the main factor was obviously the intensity of Battle Qi.
Next, this God’s Warrior Sven was like a tiger among sheep, at least ten times more fierce than before, beating the group of pirate experts besieging him until they wet their pants. His method was extremely simple: first, a hammer to immobilize people, then go over and directly cut them in half. No one knew what was going on with his hammer; whoever was hit was immobilized. Whether it was a Magic Shield or Battle Qi shield, it couldn’t defend against it. And once immobilized, facing Sven’s terrifying destructive power, who still had a way to live? It was simply one hammer, one life! In the blink of an eye, Sven killed 7 people in a row!
And what made the pirates most depressed was that since transforming, not only had Sven’s strength and Battle Qi increased to a nearly perverted level, but the key was that he seemed to have become immune to magic. Not only did the negative Spells previously cast all disappear, but even if they cast Spells again now, he didn’t care at all. Those powerful Spells were as if all thrown on a stone, having no effect at all. Facing such an undying and particularly dangerous monster, the remaining pirates no longer had the will to fight, shouting and scattering in all directions, blending into the ordinary pirate group in the blink of an eye, and soon disappearing.
