Abyssal Chronicles

Chapter 766 - 767: Attack

"Quick! Protect the prince!"

As the cries rang out, a burly figure suddenly threw away his sword, turned around, and tackled Amon, shielding both Prince Amon and Prince Eldric beneath his body.

"Die, Your Highness."

Eileen sneered, and the power accumulated within her body erupted at this moment.

*Boom!*

Accompanied by a deafening roar, the blue-haired girl’s body suddenly exploded! The destructive red flames mixed with the blue-golden power of shadow instantly engulfed everything around them. Not only was the room where Amon and the others were located consumed by the fire, but the entire upper floor of the hotel was swallowed by the blaze.

The magnificent red sun unleashed its roar explosion, shattering the tranquility of the city’s early morning.

...

*Boommmmmmmmmmmmmm!*

"What happened?!"

The sudden explosion caught the attention of the palace guards stationed near the hotel. They quickly drew their swords and looked up at the sky in disbelief. As the burning building and the billowing black smoke came into their view, their expressions changed drastically.

"The princes?!"

"Both princes were discussing matters with the young lady of the Ainor Merchant Guild upstairs, and an explosion occurred at this time?! Was it a terrorist attack?! Were the princes still alive?!"

The palace guards couldn’t help but contemplate this serious question in their minds.

As they pondered, a terrifying possibility gradually emerged before their eyes – the two princes might have already died in the explosion.

For a moment, everyone couldn’t help but gasp.

However, no matter what, there was still a chance that the princes were alive. As loyal palace guards, they had the responsibility and duty to rush over and protect the princes. Who knows, the princes might have miraculously survived and not been killed in the explosion?

With this thought, everyone made up their minds and rushed towards the hotel in a frenzy.

But just as the palace guards took their first step, the sharp-eyed guard captain noticed a desperate fact. The ground beneath their feet had, at some unknown time, developed sinister cracks, and scorching hot air and destructive energy were continuously gushing out from the fissures. Clearly, a terrifying power was spreading and expanding beneath their feet.

"F@ck!!"

Amidst the captain’s angry curses, the destructive scorching flames broke free like a bloodthirsty beast, engulfing everything within a hundred-meter radius, including the royal guards. Despite the royal guards’ efforts to summon all their magical power and energy to resist the explosion, their resistance was insignificant against the hurricane-like explosive force.

In an instant, all the guards were swallowed by the sea of flames.

This explosion was just the beginning, and similar energy blasts continued to erupt throughout Anvika City.

*Boom! Boom!*

*Boom! Boom!*

*Boom! Boom!*

*Boom! Boom!*

Accompanied by one earth-shattering explosion after another, Anvika’s peace and harmony were completely shattered, and the entire city was engulfed in a sea of fire.

Meanwhile, at the Red Leaf’s northern defense line, a group of soldiers watched in confusion as a muscular and statuesque woman in a skirt armor, with her upper body somewhat exposed, paced anxiously along the seemingly endless border defense line. Wherever she passed, powerful magical energy continuously expanded in all directions, making the soldiers feel dizzy.

However, due to her identity, not only the soldiers but even the officers beside her could only force themselves to swallow their complaints.

This woman was none other than Nanmin, one of the Four Supreme of the Holy Tower.

Second only to Hakim in the Holy Tower and possessing a high stage level 8 power, she was a terrifying existence.

Nanmin was currently communicating with Hakim using a communication magic stone when she quickly learned that the Black Rose army was heading north and that the imperial capital, Anvika, was under attack. As the sound of explosions continued to come from the other end of the communication magic stone, Nanmin couldn’t help but show a worried expression:

"Brother, how is it over there?! What is this explosion?!"

"It is unclear."

Hakim’s solemn voice slowly emerged from the magic stone,

"But it seems that someone is intentionally causing trouble to divert our attention. It’s likely someone related to the Black Rose family."

"Is someone trying to rescue Bloody Butterfly?"

"That possibility cannot be ruled out. At least I can sense that the other party has ill intentions."

"This..."

Upon hearing Hakim’s words, Nanmin’s expression grew serious. She bit her lip and silently surveyed the peaceful surroundings...

Compared to the tranquility here, Anvika and the southern part of the Red Leaf were like a raging inferno.

As the Supreme of the Holy Tower, Nanmin could not be content with the current peace.

Just thinking about how her companions were facing an unknown Bloody Butterfly and a group of hidden enemies in Anvika made her uneasy.

So, she directly proposed to Hakim:

"Brother, I’ll bring our Warlock Corps over to help you! With my restraining power, we should be able to better control Bloody Butterfly!"

In response to Nanmin’s proposal, the other end of the magic stone fell silent for a moment before a scolding voice was heard:

"Nonsense! If you and the Warlock Corps come, who will guard the borderline?!"

"Don’t worry about it, brother! Our defense line here is absolutely safe and sound, with no sign of any Abyssal demons attacks. Besides, if the Abyssal demons were to attack here, they would first have to cross the entire Snow Night Empire, and the people of the Snow Night Empire would give us a warning. The fact that the Snow Night Empire remains so calm means that there has been no Abyssal demon invasion. I have already established a fast spatial passage between the border and Anvika. It won’t take me much time to travel back and forth between the empire’s border. If there’s any news from the Snow Night Empire, I can hurry back in time!"

"..."

Hakim fell into a moment of hesitation upon hearing his companion’s words.

However, in the end, Hakim agreed with Nanmin’s idea, as the atmosphere in Anvika was too oppressive, making him feel uneasy. He believed that more powerful warriors needed to gather here to prepare for any possible attacks that could break out at any moment.

"Alright, come over after finishing your work handover."

"Got it!"

After excitedly nodding, Nanmin ended her communication with Hakim. She then looked sternly at her deputy beside her and said,

"Order the Warlock Corps to prepare for departure. I’m going to take them to Anvika."

"Lady Nanmin?! Are you serious?"

The deputy from the Red Leaf asked anxiously,

"What if the Abyssal Demons attacked? We won’t be able to hold them off with just us here..."

"Don’t worry about that. Even if the Abyssal Demons attacked, I’ll have enough time to bring the troops back to support you. Just take over my work and manage things here."

Ignoring her deputy’s objections, Nanmin walked towards the distant command post without looking back to prepare for a basic handover.

Glancing at her anxious deputy beside her, Nanmin comforted him rather considerately,

"Don’t worry, you’ve seen it these past few days too. Even if Bloody Butterfly has been captured, everything has been so peaceful. The Abyssal Demons probably won’t cause any disturbances for a while. Just wait for me to come back..."

However, before she could finish her sentence, a green laser beam streaked across the sky, striking the command post under the stunned gaze of Nanmin and her deputy...

"?!"

"Huh?"
