<h4>Chapter 1089: Irony</h4>


    Of course, Knight Ando wasn’t just going to leave like that. The Nation of God just spent too many resources to break through the defense of the Doomsday Defence Wall. He also risked quite a bit toe over here. He wasn’t just going to leave like this.


    The golden castle made him extremely weary. Even his power of the Will couldn’t extend to the inside. He could only watch Abel’s guests look at him for fun. He had never felt this kind of shame before. He was a legendary figure being watched by a bunch of low-tier ss holders. He was a show for them to enjoy.


    Unable to tolerate any of this, he took out a divine power crystal in the form of a golden crystal. It was much bigger than the divine crystal he was holding. This was the reward he received for his war efforts. On most days, he would keep this to himself so he could bememorated. Now, this was thest thing he had to protect himself. Regr ss holders possessed nothing of interest to him, so it wasn’t like he could snatch it off from anyone watching, even if he could get to them.


    Abel became very tense when he saw this crystal, “Frankenstein, bring all of them back to the castle!”


    No one tried to ask what was happening. They understood that Abel couldn’t be interrupted. Even Lorraine was looking at him for a while. Once everyone left, it was just him and Doff.


    Abel’s power of the Will was connected to the battlemand spirit, “Look around, fire tooth spirit. There should be arge-sized teleportation circle where this legendary knight came from. I want you to put explosives over there.”


    He knew that Knight Ando needed a circle to reach this location. Destroying that would make him have no ways of returning. While telling the battlemand spirit about this, he also ordered Johnson out and held the magic stone cannon in its hand. It was pointing it towards Knight Ando in the sky.


    Following that, Abel called out Flying me and jumped on its back. Once the divine crystal gathered up enough power to break through the golden castle, he would do his part and divert this legendary knight’s attention to another ce. He was the only target, as far as he was concerned. He wasn’t too sure about the exact reasons, though. It wouldn’t be about the followers he’s gathered in the Nation of God, or else he would’ve been pursued by someone else entirely.


    Whatever the case was, Abel’s priority was to have everyone else leave this ce. It was most important to protect them. Inside the golden castle, there would still be more protection that could draw him away from Knight Ando. If he wasn’t, the risk might be too high. Divine power was a force that could break through any defense. One trace was enough to break through even the Doomsday Wall. He had an excellent understanding of it, even if he couldn’t harness any himself.


    Divine power was what separated the divinities from ordinary people. Divine powers could be used to one’s own desire. It could be the strongest attack and the firmest defense. The fact that Knight Ando was deciding to use the crystal here just showed his resolve. His eyes focused on the golden castle beneath him. His eyes were cold as he looked towards this imprable fort. For his next new moves, he would break all of Master Bet’s limbs and torture him in all the countless ways he could imagine.


    Before that, he went ahead and threw the divine crystal downward. It became this golden light that was shooting straight towards the octagonal hybrid circle. The circle broke through instantly. The light was starting to possess a power that could prate through everything.


    As powerful as the hybrid circle was, the golden light possessed a special power that could concentrate all impact to one spot, making the energy dispersion property of the circle useless. Essentially, this was the strongest spear shooting through the strongest shield known to this continent. Here, it was a spear with the ferocity of light shooting through an imprable shield made from ancient times.


    Even though it was from ancient times, the shield still had its base reserved. It was the same whether Abel was on the Holy Continent or the central continent. With enough energy supplied to it, they could all be made as though they were new.


    Anyways, the golden spear was piercing through Fort no.1. Abel was receiving a voice from Spirit no. 1.


    Spirit no. 1 reported, “Warning! Divine energy collision iing. Outer shell has been broken through. Energy recovery is on the wall. Maintenance is proceeding!”


    One secondter, it called again, “Warning! Divine energy collision iing. Maintenance is proceeding. All functions will be switched off. Full recovery mode is on!”


    Very quickly, Fort no.1 was showing its form in the sky. Disguise mode was switched off, leaving only the floating function on. Abel could sense this with his power of Will. On the surface of Fort no. 1, the light was starting to pierce through the fort, but nothing else was put through.


    Inside the energy slot of the battle fort, a tremendous amount of energy was constantly taken out and put where Fort no.1 was. Knight Ando couldn’t believe what he was looking at. Something existed that could block the attack of a divine crystal. It was not hard to dodge, but the divine power was supposed to break through anything in its path. The golden castle was a fixed target, so he didn’t think it could withstand a full hit.


    Now, then. There was a gigantic steel shield that was blocking the attack of this divine crystal. Knight Ando didn’t know. Even if he were passing through the cracks of the ten battle forts, he would’ve been able to enter into the golden castle himself. As a matter of fact, the attack just then broke through the circle. He seemed to have broken through the defense of the fort. He wasn’t nning on doing an extensive search with his power of the Will, though. He’d almost forgotten about using it.


    “Recover the octagonal hybrid circle!” Abel spoke to his circle spirit. Within an instance, the other nine battle forts started sparkling. Energy paths started connecting and started energy into Fort no. 1. There was an imbnce between the light and fort no. 1. In terms of energy flow. Eventually, the golden spear’s ray was starting to fade away. Abel smiled, knowing that the worst might be over. He wasn’t sure if Knight Ando had more crystals in his hand. If he did, things might be much more dangerous.


    He had already made up his mind. Once this danger was over, he would start purchasing battle forts from all over the central continent. If there was enough, he might cover the entire area above his golden castle. He was the only one who would think like this, by the way. He wanted to purchase items from the ancient items, and since there weren’t so many out there, he thought that he had to go through all sorts of methods to make a collection out of them.


    A look of anguish started to appear on Knight Ando’s face. He saw that the ten battle forts recover into octagonal hybrid circles. He didn’t know that he had missed his chance. He had wasted his one opportunity with a very, very valuable divine crystal. Now, he was going to lose that.


    “Ah!” Knight Ando screamed. All the power inside of him gathered and was shed towards the circle. He didn’t do this hit for actual effect. He was trying to vent out his anger. Following this futile attempt, a sense of hopelessness was growing ever so stronger inside of him. He could already see himself being punished by Mr. Saint once he headed back. He would also beughed at by the other legendary sacred knights and looked down upon by his underlings. It wasn’t as simple as feeling like a failure.


    While standing on top of Haden Mountain Range, the fire tooth spirit started controlling the fort to fly. The scanning system continued to sweep across the ground. Full flight mode was off with worries that the parts would break.


    The fire tooth fort was still flying quite fast towards where Knight Ando wasing from. It was stopping at the edge of Haden Mountain range, and without going any further, it discovered a seclusion circle hidden inside Ervo Forest. Now, the fire tooth battle fort was underplete control of the fire tooth spirit. This ancient weapon sent a new message to the entire world: ancient weapons still had their use in this era.


    “Targets have been selected. Crystalized bomb circle is on the way to be assembled. Attack on the way!”


    “Ten sets!”


    Following severalmands sent by the fire tooth spirit, arge amount of energy was gathered into the crystalized bomb circle to form a single crystalized bomb. Followed by a final attack, the bombs flew straight towards the seclusion circle. It had defensive capabilities of its own, but the main effect was still cutting from all kinds of presence.


    Ten injured hunters and four human circle masters were sitting quietly around therge-sized teleportation circle within the seclusion circle. They figured that if they had protection from the seclusion circle, no one could discover them inside Ervo Forest. Even without it, it would still be impossible to locate the twenty of them inside the forest. It was like trying to locate a small boat amongst the ocean.


    One old hunter started to look around, “My heartbeat beating so quickly. Is there danger?”


    As they walked inside the forest, they realized that the danger was imminent. The other nine hunters were trying to feel something. They all took out their own bows and observed their surroundings as carefully as they could. The circle masters tried doing their part to prepare in advance. They just never realized that the attack coulde from above. From a space with nothing, ten light points appeared and were dropping towards them.


    The speed was faster than any of them would’ve expected. The seclusion circle was as weak as a thinyer of paper. The bombs broke through it with ease and were detonated on top of the circle. This pretty much showed how strong the fire tooth spirit was at controlling. The scanning ability was going through the seclusion circle right away. After receiving amand from Abel to destroy therge-sized teleportation circle, the fort started pointing towards therge-sized teleportation circle. It didn’t care about the lives of the hunters and circle masters.


    Very quickly, a deep pit about several meters deep was blown through. Therge-sized teleportation circle was blown into pieces, while the hunters and circle masters had their entire bodies evaporated on the spot.
