System vs Rebirth Chapter 1210: Attacked

Chapter 1210: Attacked

They could see more than a hundred people coming toward them while they only had about thirty people. They were completely outnumbered, but none of the soldiers or the rune magicians were cowering in fear.

"Get ready!" Howard shouted.

"Prepare the rune!" Felicia waved her hand.

All the rune magicians immediately took out two big carpets and laid them down on top of each other. After that, a young man poured his spiritual energy into the rune to activate it.

The runes drawn on the carpets began to glow. The first one that appeared was a huge barrier that covered the area around the carpet, including the trucks they brought.

Then, the spiritual energy moved to individual rune magicians and soldiers.

"This is…" The soldiers looked shocked, as if they felt a surge of power.

The soldiers exchanged looks, realizing what happened.

Howard smiled. He stepped forward and shouted, "Soldiers of the Ardagan family, charge!"

"Uoohhh!" The soldiers' cheer erupted as they started running toward the enemies, not scared of their number.

The rune magician took advantage of the barrier to protect themselves while they were preparing their own runes, mostly the Meteor Runes.

They bombarded the enemies with the Meteor Runes, killing several of them in the first volley.

"Attack!" Howard led the charge as he summoned his avatar.

The soldiers followed as they released their own spiritual energy. The rune they had activated earlier was actually one of the Advanced Rune Noel had, the Honor Bearer Rune. It was impossible to lay it down in the Rune Card, but they could do it on a huge carpet. That was why they brought those carpets inside the trucks.

When the enemies arrived, the soldiers waved their swords at their respective enemies. To their surprise, they overpowered their enemies. The moment their weapons clashed, they destroyed their weapons, knocked them back, and killed them.

"How can they be so strong?"

"What kind of strength is this?"

"We have become stronger, but it's not enough to go against these guys."

The enemies were using spiritual energy like the demons, but it was actually useless.

They didn't realize that compared to the demons for low level experts like them, the Honor Bearer Rune gave them more strength.

Even the soldiers were shocked by the boost they received.

"What is this?"

"How come we are this strong?"

"I feel like my strength now is more than doubled…"

The soldiers became even more pumped as they looked at their next enemies. "Attack!"

Instead of getting suppressed, it was the Ardagan family's soldiers that actually pushed the enemies back. They even had a hard time stopping the Meteor Runes.

Howard couldn't help but smile. He finally understood what Noel wanted from this expedition.

It was to wait to train the soldiers and see the effectiveness of the runes on the battlefield. If they had something like this, even a thousand soldiers were enough to fight against five thousand or even more demons of the same level.

"Kill them!" Howard became even more excited because the experience from this battle would drastically change how they fought their enemies.

"Uoohhh!"

The soldiers cheered and started killing one enemy after another.

However, that momentum disappeared right after because of a powerful strike hitting Howard and launching him toward the barrier.

Bam!

The soldiers widened their eyes as they couldn't help but look at Howard's condition.

When they raised their heads, they could see five people floating in the air.

"It seems that there are many bugs to crush," One of them said.

Anna squinted her eyes, noticing that they had thoroughly prepared to kill her. Out of the five people, she noticed that there were three people who had surpa.s.sed the spirit grandmasters. One of them was actually an arbiter, while the other two came from the adjudicators, the secret organization under the royal family that she was once a part of.

The other two had reached the peak of the spirit grandmasters. It seemed that the demons could only surpa.s.s the spirit grandmasters if they were already at their peak.

The other two should have just been normal spirit grandmasters before getting their demons.

And their aim was probably Howard and Felicia.

The one that attacked Howard earlier flew toward the barrier and used all his force to hit the barrier, trying to crush Howard together.

Howard hurriedly jumped down and let the barrier take the full hit.

Bam!

The impact was so strong that the ground trembled. However, that powerful strike didn't even leave behind a single scratch on the barrier.

"!!!" The enemy looked surprised but soon noticed the flow of spiritual energy inside the barrier.

His eyes darted to the truck behind the rune magicians. Those trucks were actually filled with demon crystals, turning into a mobile battery for the rune.

The rune magicians immediately attacked him with Meteor Runes.

"Annoying!" The guy waved his hand and destroyed the Meteor Runes easily.

"What?"

"He is that strong?"

"Continue to attack him!"

The Rune Magicians used as many Meteor Runes as possible, trying to find a gap in his defense to hit him.

However, the demonic human simply destroyed them so easily.

The four people who were observing his strength couldn't help but smile, fully aware that this was the strength they had gotten by turning into a demonic human.

Still, the guy couldn't break the barrier, even though he had attacked it multiple times.

"Kh!" The guy gritted his teeth and raised his vision. Now that he thought about it, there was one more person outside the barrier.

She was located behind them, watching the entire battle with a calm expression as if nothing would touch her.

The guy couldn't help but smile and fly toward Anna. "In that case, you are the one going to die, Anna Stargaze!"

"!!!" Howard and Felicia turned around, shocked that the guy would aim for Anna.

How could he be so foolish?

Anna raised her head and drew her blade, sending forth her own spiritual energy.

The guy formed a barrier with his spiritual energy and blocked the first clash, but that was when the lightning sparked, turning a normal attack into a lightning sword strike.

The spark shattered the barrier as the sword strike cut him in half.

And Anna did it so easily.

Looking at the body dropping to the ground made Anna ask, "What are you trying to do?"

*Thud—!*
