BXBX NOVEL Chapter 991 Betrayal
Marlis helped Azure Tail rebuild the barrier, which for a time made the temple a safe place again. She gave an exhausted look, sat down on the ruined column, and looked at Laur.
"Well, I can tell you that Sven\'s decision was a shock as much to Osvald and me. Of course, we had some hunches, especially me... Osvald is not the type of person who pays attention to small details, so... yes, Sven, like us, is no longer subject to the orders of our rulers." Marlis said with a shrug.
"I take it Olax and Arox don\'t know that yet, right?" Laur became serious as his gaze pierced Marlis. He trusted her to save the barrier, but the emergency had passed, so he had to get proof to trust them completely.
"Relax. Do you really think we\'re stupid enough to act so recklessly?" Marlis glanced at Laur.
Marlis sighed, " Obviously they don\'t know what we\'re doing and it will stay that way until the very end. Going up against them in an open confrontation isn\'t as effective as going covert, is it?"
Laur nodded deeply, "That\'s the right decision. I won\'t try to find out what you\'re going to do next, that\'s your business. However, tell me, what are Sven\'s plans for Black Whip and especially for us?"
First of all, Laur was the leader of the Azure Tail, so if Sven was still a threat to them, he wasn\'t going to put up with those and had to do something about it.
"We\'ll help you destroy the Black Whip, that\'s all Sven told me. Right now Osvald is fighting, simultaneously against a lot of Dragons, Sven attacked their leader, and he told me to go here and help you with the barrier. As you can see, I did an excellent job." Marlis said calmly as she looked at the Dragons.
There was still plenty of energy in the crystals, but only a small portion was completely depleted, so as soon as the barrier was damaged slightly the Dragons restored it immediately.
"I see. In that case, I will help you. You can be sure that none of my people will tell on you, though it is impossible. We are against the Arkans, we have no contact with them." Laur shrugged.
"That\'s good." Marlis nodded, "You don\'t have to worry about your safety. Sven certainly doesn\'t see you as enemies, so... you can do whatever you want... now I\'m going to rest..."
Even though Marlis didn\'t have to expend all her energy to restore the barrier, she was still exhausted as she used a lot of her strength. Marlis nonchalantly lay down on the column, thinking of nothing but a short nap.
\'Damn... I knew they were strange, but how can she trust us? She\'s completely defenseless now, though the fact that she can fall asleep so quickly surrounded by Dragons just shows how confident she is in her powers.\' Laur inwardly muttered as he flapped his broad wings.
With the help of Marlis, Azure Tail were able to defend their temple, but they couldn\'t relax, so it was time for Laur to lead his men to attack.
\'Hmm... I think it\'s obvious that there\'s no way the Black Whip can survive, it\'s over for them, but I wonder exactly how Osvald and Sven will do it. I know almost nothing about their powers, especially about Sven\'s ones.\' Wain inwardly muttered a thoughtful expression as his silhouette blurred.
The next moment he appeared beside Osvald, who was already fighting at full strength against the Black Whip members.
Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.
Multiple energy projectiles rained down on Osvald every second as the Dragons completely surrounded him, but their attacks just couldn\'t penetrate his skin.
\'Damn, I knew Osvald was strong, but it looks like his defense is top-notch too. If that fiery move had hit me, it would have left a burn on my body, of course without the element of darkness.\' Wain pondered, assessing Osvald\'s skills.
"Hahaha, is that really all you can do?! You fly around me like a bunch of bugs and keep attacking without getting any results!" Osvald exclaimed with an excited expression as his aura multiplied.
Osvald had only one disadvantage, he was bad at magic, so it was difficult for him to make any kind of mass attack. However, he could always use his favorite way, which was something similar to Nicole\'s fighting style.
"Well, try flying around me after that." Osvald muttered, clenched his fist tightly, and dropped it to the ground with all his might.
Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.
The impact caused violent shock waves that rippled like ripples all around, then several rings of momentum went through the entire hill, making it tremble violently.
"What the hell!" One of the Dragons exclaimed, quickly flapping his wings as he tried to deal with the pressure from the shockwave, "How can one hit be so strong?! It\'s impossible!"
Wain, too, was surprised as his eyes went wide. He blinked, then he saw a completely different scene as half of the hill simply ceased to exist and a third of the Dragons were on the ground, next to the rubble.
"Heh, looks like only the most resilient are left, right?" Osvald smirked, running his gaze over the five Dragons, "Well, there are still too many of you anyway. I\'m sure there are a few more weaklings among you, so let\'s have another test."
The dragons should have attacked Osvald, after all, they were in the middle of a battle, but upon hearing his words they only flinched. Each of them realized that there was no way they could have survived Osvald\'s previous strike if it had hit them directly.
Crackle. Crackle. Crackle.
Osvald spread his shoulders wide, revealing his muscular back which quickly became several times larger, then he put his two fists together and strained his muscles to the limit.
"This time I\'m going to use two hands and a lot more energy, so try not to die and let me have some fun. I\'m sure Sven will tell me off for what I did, so don\'t disappoint me." Osvald said coldly with a sharp look.
