Chapter 308 Adapt And Overcome (2)



Everything happened so fast—by the time everyone could properly register what happened, Iliana was almost grasped by Goap.

None of them thought at that time—the moment they saw what was happening, their body instantly moved. In their mind, they knew, however, Goap would be able to take Iliana away, because their speed couldn't match his.

"Move away, dickhead!"

Thud!

"This accursed human!"

Just as when they thought they would lose Iliana forever, the "sanest" person of the group, Whitney, who had rarely cursed or called people names, surprised them by slamming his body into Goap.

In result, Goap was thrown off their piece of floating land and Iliana could prepare herself to defend herself from any other of Goap's attempt to assault her.

"Move this thing quick, Whitney!" Cray shouted.

Although Goap's attempt to take Iliana away had failed, he was still close to them. Having the ability to fly, after being thrown off the floating piece of land, Goap floated in the air a few meters away from them.

With that said, there was a need to take a distance, since they would only endanger themselves if they didn't. They, after all, needed some time to create another Barrier to protect themselves.

"Holy cow, mate! How did you move so fast back then?" Cray asked heatedly.

"Have you already forgotten what we are standing on due to your fear? Magic moves faster than your body—I propelled myself using Earth Magic."

"Darn! You should be a Geo Mage—you'll be good at it."

"Thanks, but I am better at creating Barrier." Whitney smirked.

Goap didn't immediately chase after them for some reason. Rather than making them feel glad however, it made them worry—they were wondering what kind of dangerous scheme he was up to.

Thankfully though, they were already surrounded by the Mana Barrier again at this point, so their worry slightly diminished. They knew something was coming—it was still worrisome—but they were all ready to take it.

Gulp!

Iliana was nervous—more than she had ever been. She had never felt this nervous ever since she was left alone in Randalvine after fleeing away from her village when the Paladins were racking it.

There was something similar between that day and this moment: there was a chance of her getting captured and never seeing the light again.

One might wonder if she was afraid, and the answer was no. Contrary to that, she was rather excited. She was no longer a helpless little lass; she already had power to protect herself. She was sure she could somehow overcome the situation.

Was she naive for thinking that way? No one could tell. At this situation, optimism, confidence, and naivety would look no different. Both, after all, have something in common: the believe of winning.

"Behind us!"

Boom!

Like before, Goap suddenly appeared behind them. He had teleported himself there in less than a second, but their Barrier could luckily hold off his attack.

Quickly turning their body towards Goap, the Slayers launched their attacks at him the moment their eyes met his. The Guardians did their job in fixing the Barrier, restoring it to its perfect condition in a second.

Goap, who was receiving many kinds of attacks from the Spells and Arts, dodged all of them easily by moving pivotally. He would swat the attacks that he couldn't dodge, so none of them could hurt him in the slightest.

Of course, giving Goap an injury was never their intention since the beginning. They just wanted to retreat to the rear—to the "safest" spot in the battlefield so Goap would forget about chasing them.

The rear had so many soldiers, even Goap would think twice before receiving the bombardments of the soldiers ... Or so they thought.

"Bloody hell! This guy is persistent—he is still chasing us!" Cray looked at Goap and the rear alternatingly. "We are just a few seconds away from the rear, but he's still chasing!"

"Why is that a problem?" Monica asked with a frown.

"The soldiers—he will kill many of them!" Missy answered even before Cray opened his mouth.

"They won't!" Whitney exclaimed. "There are too many of them. I am sure he is not stupid enough to take all of the attacks head on."

There were, after all, ten thousands of Fifth Circle Mages, Sixth Circle Mages, Peak Green Core Knights, and Blue Core Knights in the rear, so Whitney's statement was reasonable.

No matter how strong Goap was, he would definitely be injured taking the soldiers head on. He, after all, couldn't even break the Formation protecting the four Princes after two hours—what could he do to ten thousands of soldiers?

... He could do many things, unfortunately.

"Come with me, and there shall be no more sacrifice in this battle, Pacifer!"

"Yo, what in the hell is this bloke is talking about?" Cray exclaimed. "He's mistaking you with Basil, Iliana!"

Everyone had only realized the fact that Goap was calling Iliana Pacifer after Cray pointed that out. They immediately wondered how Goap could mistaken her as Basil, but then remembered there was no way Goap could know Basil.

Full of curiosity, they looked at Iliana, but that was all they did. They wanted to know—what she was hiding—but they didn't ask her right away.

They knew she would tell them when the time came, and they were aware now wasn't the time. There was, after all, Goap that still they needed to watch out.

Goap suddenly stopped chasing them and raised his hand. He pointed his finger to the sky, and everyone in the battlefield, even those who weren't looking at him, could tell something was going to happen.

"He is doing something, prepare for impact!" Whitney warned.

Boom!

"Bloody hell! This accursed pressure—he really likes to flaunt it, doesn't he? What a cunt!"

Cray had been cursing more actively than usual, but no one could blame him. Given the situation, all of them, after all, were also cursing inwardly—they didn't curse out loud because of their nature.

The pressure Goap was exuding was just as overwhelming as the time when he got a hold of Iliana's spear. He didn't do anything back then however—he was going to now, so they wondered what kind of nightmare he would deliver.

Gulping dryly in obvious nervousness and slight fear for their life, they watched as the armlet around Goap's left arm shone intensely in blue.

Countless of droplets formed around him in the next moment, and they could tell it was water. The droplets didn't only come from the air, they also emerged from the ground before rising to the air.

Snap!

Goap snapped his fingers once, and suddenly, an extremely huge amount of water—enough to cause a tsunami—appeared in the air. Everyone's eyes widened in shock—the battlefield turned silent as they planted their gaze on the water.

"Come with me, and no one should die any longer."

No one other than the students of Rehearsal Class knew whom those words were directed to, however they knew they were already standing in front of the door of doom at that moment.

Magic Circles shone intensely and Qi Cores were exhausted—every Mage and Knight in the battlefield did their best to increase their chance of survival.

They had been fighting against the odds in their entire life, and most of the time, they had always lost to the nature. Never had they thought that someday they would see someone who could control nature.

Who in their right mind, after all, would think that there would come a day when they died due to a tsunami in the middle of a plain, far away from the sea?

Crash!

"Hold tight!" Whitney exclaimed.

As the water fell down from the sky, Whitney and the others pumped all of their Mana into the Barrier protecting them. They no longer thought of conserving Mana to later fuel their offensive Spells, because surviving was more important to them.

Crack!

Surely they were not wrong, since the moment the water fell upon them, the Barrier almost couldn't stand against the impact.

The piece of floating land they were standing on was also constantly pushed down by the water. Whitney and Deacon worked really hard to keep it afloat—especially Deacon, who, despite being in the Formation, was not a part of the Formation.

"Ugh... This is draining my Mana." Missy groaned.

"Technically, OUR Mana," Cray retorted.

Iliana chuckled. "If you ignore the bad things, you'll be able to see the beautiful things." She gestured at the water pressing down on the Barrier. "It looks like a gigantic aquarium, doesn't it?"

"Basil has really rubbed off on you, hasn't he? Your sense of humour is just as dry now!" Cray remarked.

"Those are indeed his words—the advice." Iliana shrugged.

All of them wanted to laugh but grinning softly was the only thing they could do. They couldn't lose their concentration on the Barrier for a second, or else they would end up dead, crushed by the manmade, or rather, Demonmade tsunami.

Crack! Crack!

Spurt!

"Ah, fuck it! There is a leak everyone!" Cray exclaimed jokingly.

All of them turned nervous as they could see the Barrier protecting them was just a few seconds away from completely crumbling. They didn't know when the water would stop pushing them down, but they hoped it would end soon.

They had, after all, exhausted their Mana, so if the Barrier was broken, they wouldn't be able to do much to protect themselves.

"I wish Master was here," Deacon muttered wryly.

Everyone heard Deacon, and they couldn't help smiling bitterly. They had all seen how capable Basil was, so they were sure he would be able to do something in this situation.

The mood turned depressive as they realized how pathetic they were for counting on somebody to keep their lives.

Crack!

Just as they stopped thinking about what if Basil had been there, the Barrier protecting them was finally broken. The water immediately crashed down on them, causing their eyes to widen in shock due to the power.

They were worried about each other, but they didn't get the time to save the other. They were busy coating themselves with Mana—busy saving themselves.

Gasp!

It wasn't until they came out of the water, or rather, passed by the water could they finally think of saving the other. Looking behind them, they could see the huge wave of water sweeping the ground off everything alive on it.

They sighed gladly at what they had managed to survive, but as soon as they turned their eyes to the front, they widened their eyes for what they saw.

Goap was lifting Iliana by her throat.
