BXBX NOVEL Chapter 878 Unexpected Surprise
They sent another small group of high-end monsters, aiming to slow down William until the monsters they sent before would catch up to him.
William didn't know the danger that was rapidly approaching him, yet he could guess part of it. "These dark masters must have noticed my presence and sent those scary monsters before… That means they are watching me right now and will send more to stop me…"
He didn't have much choice if that happened. If he got surrounded, then it was the time to use his two monstrous weapons, buying himself a little time and creating a safe path for him to escape again.
As he was burdened by such disturbing worries, Sloth and other masters finally approached his location from a different route.
They came to save William, never expected what they were doing would save him but in totally a different way.
As they started to pick up pace, they soon entered into the spirit sense range of the dark masters. The moment they appeared there, everything totally changed.
The dark masters took everything wrong! They realised why a single weak master was acting like a kamikaze, going all alone against all these odds.
They realised he was just a decoy, some sort of distraction meant to disorganise their tight defences and pave a path for this group of scary masters to infiltrate the area deeply.
They knew if such a group of masters managed to bypass the circle of monsters, then they were going to face a dead end. Sloth didn't bring too many masters with him, but they were enough to bring forth tons of destruction, stall and interrupt the ongoing process of laying down the formation.
If that happened, then everything the dark masters worked for would be gone! They realised how serious this situation was, and instantly reacted to such a threat.
"What's going on?!" William wasn't able to see further than a few kilometres away from him, and yet he could see lots of monsters moving away, rapidly clearing a path away from him.
He didn't know what was going on, and all he thought about was for him to walk into a trap. He didn't get why, but this looked fishy in his eyes.
He decided to walk slowly towards his goal and see what type of trap was waiting for him at the end.
He never thought that monsters were all marching away from him by the strict and urgent orders from the dark masters watching. And on the other side of this, the team led by Sloth couldn't help but pause in their tracks, feeling puzzled about the sudden and grand changes that happened in the entire area.
"This is our chance to help him," Sloth was the fastest to grasp such an idea, "I don't know what went in the heads of those bastards, but it's great! Let's fight these monsters and drag them slowly away from William."
"Let's do it then!"
"I'm feeling bored and want to warm up a little."
"Let's show the youngster how veterans fight!"
Just as Sloth said in his piece, everyone agreed on such an idea. They didn't believe there was any monster which could threaten their lives. And they were right in their confidence.
If every one of them was here alone, then things would have been different. But there were hundreds of such high-end masters right now, and together they could crush anything and anyone.
Just as they started to act, they released torrents of deadly explosions enough to be heard and noticed from far away. William was moving slowly and with caution when he heard such loud rumbling coming from a certain spot at the horizon.
"This… Oh, so he came!" his eyes shone brightly when he realised what was going on. Everything now made perfect sense, and he guessed what happened.
Yet he thought that Sloth came here alone, and to the dark master's leaders, he was a highly valued target more than him. He didn't mind such misconception and started to pick up pace forward.
He knew there wasn't a trap or anything, but Sloth appeared to help in such a critical moment. He was far from the group led by Sloth, so the sounds of their devastating battles reached him weak and low, making him mistake this was the work of a single master.
He didn't waste a single second anymore, even started to run and evade monsters instead of fighting them. He started to madly advance forward, crossing lots of distance in a short time.
He knew Sloth alone wouldn't be able to hold such an endless swarm of monsters alone for too long. And once he retreated, things would change for the worse.
He didn't know there were enough masters to hold monsters away from him for days. And when he started to crazily run forward, he attracted the attention of both his allies and enemies.
The enemies didn't care about such a small fly. They knew even if this gold master managed to reach the inner zones of the Black Holes, they would be able to easily wipe him out. So they ignored what William was doing and focused mainly over the scary force of masters fighting monsters right now.
Sloth did bring deadly masters with him. They didn't fight together before, but each one of them held tons of fighting experience. It didn't take long for them to recognise each other's techniques, strong, and weak traits. And in a few hours, they started to work like a coherent force should be, as if they were together for long years.
That made the task of monsters quite hard, pretty much impossible actually to stop them. The dark masters had to call for all the big shots in the monster army they gathered to halt the advance of these masters.
