Chapter 397 I Have Ultimate Power
Phoenix shifted her gaze back toward Zedekiah and said coldly, “You must really underestimate Phoenix Regiment if you came seeking vengeance all by yourself!”
“Hmph! You barbarians are nothing but ants to me, so why should I even bother bringing more men with me?” Zedekiah retorted with a sneer before charging at Phoenix a second later.
He moved so fast that Phoenix couldn’t react in time, and she was sent flying with a swift smack to the chest.
Despite her being an Internal Energy Grandmaster, she was no match for Zedekiah at all.
“Phoenix!” Tommy wanted to rush to her aid, but he couldn’t even stand up on his feet.
“How dare you go around attacking people like this in Summerbank?” Anthony shouted as he arrived with his subordinates from the Department of Justice.
Not wanting to worry Josephine, he chose to come over without informing Lizbeth as he knew the latter would definitely tell Josephine about it.
Zedekiah shot Anthony a disdainful glance as he said, “Get lost! I don’t give a d*mn about you dogs from the Department of Justice! You’d better stay out of this if you value your lives!”
Anthony went livid with rage upon hearing that.
“All of you, attack at once! We must kill him!”
Seeing as Zedekiah wasn’t intimidated by the Department of Justice in the slightest, Phoenix had no choice but to utilize their advantage in numbers against him.
“Get him!”
Hundreds of men from the Phoenix Regiment raised their weapons and charged at Zedekiah.
To their surprise, Zedekiah simply broke into an arrogant smile as he shouted, “Infinite Darkness Formation!”
With a wave of his sleeve, he sent a dense, black fog surging out of his robes to block the sun completely. Within seconds, the entire place was plunged into pitch-black darkness.
Unable to see what was going on, the men from Phoenix Regiment began to panic. Things only got worse when they heard the dying screams of their comrades coming from all around them.
“Hahaha! I have ultimate power within my formation! You lot are nothing but meat on the chopping block!”
Zedekiah sounded really terrifying as he cackled like a madman.
Watching the loyal subordinates that had served her for years screaming in anguish like that, Phoenix was deeply hurt and her eyes reddened unwittingly. She knew they would all end up dying here, but she couldn’t order them to retreat. All she could do was sacrifice their lives to buy Jared as much as time as possible.
“Please wake up as soon as you can, Mr. Chance!” Tommy screamed when he saw the state of agony she was in.
“Do not let him enter the mansion even if it costs you your life, Tommy. I’ll be on my way now…” Phoenix said before charging straight into the black fog.
“Phoenix!” With tears in his eyes, Tommy clenched his fists and hammered them against the ground.
Am I really going to lose Phoenix before I can even confess my feelings to her?
The screams of anguish continued to sound in the fog, each one of them stabbing at Tommy’s heart like a knife as he couldn’t tell which one belonged to Phoenix.
Anthony and his subordinates from the Department of Justice were stupefied as they watched from the side. Given the circumstances, he knew he wouldn’t be able to do much even if he wanted to help out.
Boom!
Suddenly, a loud explosion was heard as the white fog around the mansion condensed into the shape of a giant sword. The sword was then sent flying straight at the black fog.
