Chapter 3855 Summoning All Forces
As the vice sect leader, Geraint’s words carried considerable weight and helped to calm everyone’s racing hearts. The mention of God Crusher, in particular, had given them an additional glimmer of hope.
After all, members of the Void Sect specialized in the art of swordsmanship, and Geraint was almost nearing perfection with his.
Even if he couldn’t defeat the mysterious fighter with God Crusher, he knew he’d still be able to wear his opponent out significantly.
“In addition, I want you guys to spread the news of the mysterious fighter so the surrounding sects can join in the fight,” Geraint uttered coldly. “I’m sure they understand the importance of our mutual dependence. Joining forces with us might still give them a chance of survival. Going at it alone, however, will be a guaranteed death sentence.”
This battle will determine if Void Sect lives or dies, and since that mysterious fighter is so terrifyingly powerful, the only way for us to have a fighting chance is to rely on strength in numbers.
Just then, Gloria spoke up. “Lord Earkenhait, I suggest we inform Eclipse of everything that happened here as soon as possible. We’ll tell them we’ve found the culprit who murdered several Paladins, and even Larissa has fallen under his control. If we can rope in the help of Eclipse and Eclipse Academy, I’m sure it will improve our chances of winning.”
“Yes, you make a good point. We’ll do as you say, Elder Gaston, and send our fastest apprentices to relay the message,” Geraint said approvingly. “Primo, you’re truly blessed to have married such a capable woman!”
“Oh, I couldn’t have done it without my husband’s guidance,” Gloria replied with a saccharine smile.
Primo instantly beamed with pride, especially when he felt everyone turning green with envy as they looked at him.
“Lastly, I shall activate the Carnage Sword Array and combine it with God Crusher. That way, I’ll be able to strike the mysterious fighter with the most powerful blow! With such a strong attack, I doubt he’d be able to walk away unscathed,” Geraint uttered, an evil glint in his eyes.
Try as she might, Gloria couldn’t hide the shock on her face. “Carnage Sword Array? I’ve never heard of that before!”
“It’s an attack that works hand in hand with our sect’s defensive formation. Both are our strongest formations and also our trump cards,” Primo explained. “Carnage Sword Array, in particular, was created by array masters merging the power from dragon ley lines and the sword energy from several of our sect’s fighters. Therefore, the only way to set the sword array in motion is by using our sect’s sword technique. When combined with God Crusher, the force unleashed will be scarily powerful.”
Gloria finally had a good grasp of the situation. Ah, that’s Void Sect for you. How else could it have risen in the ranks if it didn’t have a secret weapon up its sleeve?
“All right, that’s enough. Get yourselves ready, everyone!” Geraint ordered.
With that, the crowd gradually filed out of the room.
As Gloria watched from afar, she could tell all the sect members were hurriedly making their preparations.
Many elders were even brandishing ancient swords, most of which were items she had never seen before.
Wow! Everyone sure is taking out their most treasured weapons for the fight!
While the Void Sect members were busy with their battle preparation, the surrounding sects had also gotten wind of the news.
As it turned out, Void Sect’s messengers had intentionally exaggerated the situation and described the mysterious fighter as a deranged lunatic who’d go to any lengths to loot cultivation resources.
To make matters worse, they also insisted that the fighter was the culprit who had previously devoured countless sects.
Naturally, the news had many of the smaller sects fearing for their lives and promptly deciding to work together with the mighty Void Sect.
Even the medium-sized sects knew they’d stand a better chance of winning if they joined forces, so it didn’t take much effort to convince them to send their best fighters to Void Sect.
At the same time, Eclipse had also received the news, and the sect leader immediately deployed all elite Paladins and the Eclipse Academy to provide support.
Not wanting to leave any room for error, Eclipse even ordered their subordinate groups to do the same and send reinforcements as soon as possible.
Before long, various sects and forces were marching toward Void Sect to prepare for the massive showdown.
