System vs Rebirth Chapter 476 Ambush

Chapter 476 Ambush

"Hmm?" One of the Spirit Masters narrowed his eyes and pointed at the distance. "Look!"

All of them followed the direction he pointed at and found four people leaping off the wall. It wouldn't matter that much if these people just wanted to die after getting surrounded by demons.

But the ones that came out just now were the Demon Relief Squad and the Vice Captain of the Demon Hunting Squad, they weren't people that would easily die because of some low level demons.

"The Demon Relief Squad?" It seemed they placed more importance on the Demon Relief Squad than the Vice Captain of the Demon Hunting Squad.

They had foiled a lot of their plans recently, so obviously, they were angry at the Demon Relief Squad to the point they wanted to eliminate them completely to show that no one could resist them.

"What should we do? The Demon Relief Squad has left."

"They should be heading to the Demon Hunting Squad's Captain. It will be troublesome if they can help him."

"Then again, there are two Spirit Grandmasters there. Do we even need to help them?"

"Of course. The Demon Relief Squad managed to solve two Superior Demons and one of our bishops, so we can't underestimate them."

"What are we going to do then?"

"We'll split our group into two. Five of you will remain here while the rest will follow them. At the very least, we can stop those Spirit Masters, allowing our side's Spirit Grandmaster to deal with that Vice Captain."

"It seems there's no other way."

"Yeah. We have to show the Demon Relief Squad who is the boss."

The ten Spirit Masters seemed to have reached an agreement. They hurriedly split their team and went after Noel and the others.

Rose obviously saw them coming and reported to Noel, "We're being chased."

"We don't have time to deal with them. So, we'll focus on going to Captain Igor." Noel shook his head helplessly, not wanting to bother with them.

Richard frowned and asked, "But shouldn't we turn around right away to launch a counterattack they never expected? I am a Spirit Grandmaster, so dealing with them shouldn't be a problem."

"No." Noel shook his head again. "If you take a look at the distance between us, it's clear that those Spirit Masters are maintaining a certain distance so that they can avoid our counterattacks. They want to buy some time while waiting for us to find the Spirit Grandmaster so that they can attack us.

"So, it's better to continue without caring about them." Noel shrugged. Instead of wasting their time, he preferred to fall into their traps and overcome them.

He already had a plan in mind anyway, so he wasn't afraid of them.

Rose didn't doubt Noel's judgment while Ben was trying to figure out Noel's plan. Richard was the only one who was confused about this decision to the point he wanted to raise his voice to show his point.

But Noel didn't pay any heed to his concern as he told Rose, "We're going to need you here. Can you fight?"

"Defeating an enemy? It's kind of hard to do that."

"No. I just want you to stall them."

"In that case, leave two of them to me. Ben should have no problem with two, right?" Rose smirked, teasing Ben as if she didn't believe Ben was that strong.

Ben only chuckled while saying, "Hahaha, indeed. I will stop two of them for you. You should worry about the Spirit Master you handle, considering you're still a Spirit Wielder."

"Well, it should be fine for now." Noel nodded, thanking him for the concern. However, it wasn't necessary since he had a certain plan to defeat this person.

They continued to track Igor's movement. They thought Igor had gone too far since he still couldn't see any traces of battle even after running for three minutes.

Hence, the group had to continue until they found a change of trace.

It seemed that his worry was soon answered when they heard a few explosions occurring on the horizon. They still couldn't find out about it, but Rose confirmed.

"There seem to be three people. I'm not sure about it yet, but that should be the number." Rose explained according to the number of noises she heard with her enhanced senses.

With Rose's confirmation, Noel and the others picked up their pace, trying to widen the gap between them and the Spirit Masters.

"!!!" The Spirit Masters were surprised that they decided to increase their pace. They thought it was their plan to ambush them, so they waved their hands, asking each other to lower their pace so that they could react to anything.

However, the noise of the battle soon proved them wrong. There was a fierce fight between three Grandmasters in that area.

The sound they produced could be heard from three hundred meters away. So, the Spirit Masters hurriedly sped up in order to catch up to them.

But the moment they sped up to catch up, the ground seemed to have turned into mud, causing two of them to trip.

"What are you doing?" The three Spirit Masters were confused since it was easy to avoid it.

But before they could reply, they heard another sound. They thought it came from the battle, but they were wrong.

Suddenly, Ben appeared from the right side and struck his blade, stopping them.

*Clink!* They were shocked and stared at Ben. Ben didn't care about it as he simply grabbed both of them and played with them first.

"Ambus.h.!.+" The people shouted while looking around, finding a few arrows being shot from around them. They were in the woods after all, so they had no choice but to avoid those arrows.

They didn't realize it was an illusion, and it was the perfect opportunity for Noel to appear.

"!!!" One of the Spirit Masters managed to react and stopped Noel's blade, but because he was startled, he got pushed back a little bit, allowing Noel to grab his wrist and throw him away.
