Chapter 3740 Escaping To Kenfort
If it wasn’t for the magical potion, the internal injuries that Gloria suffered would have been too dire for her to pull through. Apart from her, Wade, Santino, and Grant had also made it back to the Glorian Order’s base safely.
As for the other four Paladins of the Void Sect, they had sacrificed their lives in order to ensure their escape. Santino was bursting with fury. “D*mn that b*stard from the mundane world! I’ll definitely wipe them all out sooner or later!”
He could feel his veins popping when he thought about how the ancient bronze sword that was gifted by his master was destroyed by Levi. Upset, he muttered, “How am I going to explain this to Master?”
Overwhelmed by the emotions roiling within him, blood started trickling down the corner of his mouth. Santino quickly popped a few pills into his mouth in order to calm himself.
As for Grant and Wade, they had their heads lowered, looking dejected. The arrogance and menace they were exuding at the beginning were nowhere to be seen. When Grant thought back to how Levi had ended the lives of his comrades with a single punch, a shiver ran down his spine.
While passing a few pills to Gloria, Santino urged, “Gloria, go and pack your things. We need to leave this place immediately. I doubt your Fatalis Warriors can hold Levi back for long. I reckon they will be knocking on our front doors soon enough.”
Even though I failed to capture Forlevia to help in my cultivation, Gloria would make a fine replacement since she’s a prodigy as well. Besides, she has good combat prowess. Bringing her along meant that we would have additional help if Levi managed to catch up to us. With her help, our chance of escaping would be greatly increased.
Hearing that, Gloria replied respectfully, “Understood.”
She was aware that the only person she could depend on at the moment was Santino. Only by staying loyal to Void Sect can I ensure my survival so that I may one day take my revenge against Levi.
Gloria hurriedly packed up her valuable belongings before picking out a hundred of her trusted elite aides to escape together with Santino.
Naturally, she didn’t forget to bring God Crusher with her. She tied the sword to her back. This sword is the only thing ensuring my stay in Void Sect. Before she left, she asked, “Bone Grandmaster, have you prepared the medicines?”
“Everything’s ready,” came Bone Grandmaster’s reply. “Don’t worry, Lord Gloria, this will definitely give Levi and his gang a huge surprise.”
Satisfied, Gloria nodded. “I’m glad to hear that. Come, we must leave now.” With that, they evacuated the Glorian Order’s base and followed after Santino and the others.
Not long after Gloria and the others made their escape, Levi and his gang arrived at the border of Corpse Pit. Wiping away the sweat on her brow, Phoenix cautioned, “Boss, something’s off up front.”
Levi looked toward the direction that Phoenix was pointing at and saw that the land before them was shrouded in a thick layer of fog. There was a biting chill in the wind that blew across, and it seemed like there were figures shambling about in the fog.
The movements of the figures were bizarre. To be precise, they looked stiff, as though they were puppets moving with the help of the strings attached to them.
They were even letting out some eerie-sounding wails, much like how the ghosts in horror movies sounded.
Azure Dragon said in a low voice, “Rumor has it that Corpse Pit is a place filled with negative energy. It didn’t help that Gloria killed off many of her enemies later in this place, adding to the negative energy that was already here in the first place.”
He added, “Moreover, with how adept Bone Grandmaster is with all kinds of sorcery, I bet he must have used some special techniques to control those corpses.”
In response, Levi commanded coldly, “Charge!”
There was no way he would give up now that they were on the brink of ending the Glorian Order. I’m going to end the Glorian Order once and for all, lest they harass the base again in the future.
Letting out their battle cries, members of the base and affiliated forces soon engaged in battle with the living corpses.
However, due to the large numbers of corpses and the fact that they could no longer feel any pain or exhaustion, the attacks dished out by Levi’s side did not bore any success. Seeing that, Levi growled, “Get out of my way.”
