Chapter 2767 Forlevia Descends
The combatants watched in shock as a giant crossbow was wheeled out, having thought that the crossbow would have been taken away along with Levi’s departure.
Unexpectedly, it was left behind to be used at the moment when it was needed the most.
They recalled that Levi had mentioned before that gigantic crossbows were handy against the fighters of Diviniteria.
The only drawback was that there was only enough material for ten arrows which was too few against an army that vast.
As the ammunition had to be large enough to fit the weapon, the amount of timber and steel used to produce the arrows had depleted Levi’s resources.
Deducting the three that they had used before, only seven remained.
At that critical juncture, the simultaneous use of three arrows was justified.
It took two dozen men to pull the bowstring laden with triple the tension.
“Let loose on three! One, two, three!”
Boom!
Together, the three arrows broke the sound barrier and traveled toward the Diviniterian camp with the destructive power of three comets.
When Mr. X and his “Gods” were about to annihilate their enemy, they noticed a sudden shift in the tide of battle.
Without warning, the three arrows appeared and tore their formation apart.
“The crossbow!”
Mr. X recognized the weapon at once. It was the gigantic crossbow that Levi had employed when he led the alliance to attack Diviniteria.
He had thought that the three arrows used prior were all that was left.
Not only did he not expect them to still have ammunition remaining in their quiver, but he also did not foresee the unleashing of three arrows at once.
“Watch out!” Mr. X warned.
The Gods were about to take control of the battlefield when the power of the crossbow scattered their defenses.
Even Mr. X dove aside to avoid the arrows.
After all, the crossbow was of Levi’s own design which was built for the specific purpose of targeting the weakness of the Gods.
Being unprepared to face such a devastating weapon, the Gods were left with no choice but to block the incoming assault to the best of their ability.
The three arrows disrupted their formation and temporarily subdued them.
“Argh!”
Some of the Gods who did not manage to move out of the way in time were skewered by the immense arrows, each one as thick as a pillar.
It was a testament to the crossbow’s prestige of being the only weapon on the side of the alliance capable of vanquishing or even damaging the fighters of Diviniteria that merely three arrows fired from it had resulted in a dent in the Diviniterian forces.
Despite the destructive power the weapon possessed, the remaining four arrows were not enough to win them the war.
Despite successfully beating back the Diviniteria forces, the mere presence of the Gods sent an aura of overwhelming tyranny that made its way toward the alliance and crumbled the will of its soldiers.
As timely as the three arrows were fired, they had only managed to block a portion of the Diviniteria force.
The aura spread further outward, engulfing the alliance in a storm of subjugation and despair. Realizing the futility of their resistance, many began laying down their arms. The collective casualty would have been on an inconceivably large scale but for a timely appearance of a savior.
At the last second, a figure emerged to block the onslaught of the invisible force with its bare hands.
The battleground fell silent as the soldiers gazed up in disbelief.
Even the Diviniterian forces whose bloodlust was incensed from the death-defying act of charging through the arrows earlier found themselves frozen with shock.
A mere girl is the one who saved the lives of an entire battalion!
The combined appearance of the crossbow and the mysterious girl spared the entire force of the alliance from certain doom.
The combatants from both sides let out a collective gasp when she turned around to face them for the first time.
It’s Forlevia, daughter of Levi and student of The Cardinal Hall! Legend has it that she has immeasurable potential!
Even Mr. X and his men were startled and enraged by her appearance.
Levi had always stood in our way and interfered with our plans. Now his daughter is doing the same!
The alliance failed to stifle their exclamations of amazement when they recognized their savior.
Her exploits and talent had been the stuff of legend! Today, we are blessed to witness them in person! More importantly, her arrival into our humble, mortal realm serves as a rallying cry at a time we need it the most!
