Dark Magus Returns
chapter-591

The Crimson Crane were continuing to fight. Due to the large amount of enemies in front of them, they had no choice but to start using some of the Qi pills that had been given to them.

Part of their Qi was restored, and they could continue to fight for now, but how much longer could they last?

Reno swung his arms against a spear, hitting it to the floor, and then grabbed one of the warriors by the sleeve. He pulled him forward and chucked the body towards a wave of people that were chasing after him.

Another had jumped up with a sword in hand, ready to cleave him in two until an arrow had hit him in the head, killing him on the spot.

Looking up at the rooftop, he could see Froma had saved him, and she too had just taken another Qi pill.

"The regular Qi pills are fine to take, but their effectiveness between time fades. To the point where they'll stop working, we can't just keep fighting.

On top of that, the people that were fighting with us, they're going to wear out before us. We still have the special Qi pills that can restore all our energy but only for a minute, and that would have to be a last resort."

Reno then looked out into the distance, where a large amount of Qi could be felt. Ripples in the air were seen, and huge strikes were being delivered.

"The only way we can turn this fight around is by defeating the pillars in this fight and crushing their morale."

The solution was easy, but the task itself was hard.

Right now, Polter was swinging his blade wildly through the air, large streams of Qi could be felt with every swing.

It took both Alba as she swung her sword towards the attacks and Tilon with his shield to stop them. Alba would stop the bulk of the blade, while Tilon would stop the point from hurting her even more.

The attacks were relentless, and the two felt like they were playing some type of game where all they could do was block.

"Alba, are you okay?" Tilon shouted as he shoved his shield above them, using a special foot technique to push up using the strength of his legs.

"Just think about yourself, don't worry about me!" Alba said as she jumped over the blade attack this time. But when she landed in order to help Tilon, she quickly extended her hands and dug her swords into the ground to somewhat stop its momentum.

Her hands felt extremely numb as it was hit, and the weapon was more damaged than it was before.

"It's been fun looking at the two of you working together, but you haven't even noticed I haven't even used one skill from our Behemoth Clan yet," Polter smiled.

Lifting his sword, his eyes then lingered onto Tilon. He readied his sword, and the visual Qi was fading in the air, disrupting it like flames.

He dug his foot into the ground, and Polter spun his entire body, swinging his curved sword. This time, rather than it going towards Alba, it went straight for Tilon.

Seeing this, he placed his shield into the ground, using both hands to shove it in, and then held on tight with both hands, gathering all of his Qi, making his body as condensed as possible.

The moment the sword clashed into the shield, Tilon was lifted into the air, and his shield was broken into nothing but pieces.

"TILON!" Alba screamed.

Elsewhere in the city, Anna had just seen Rayna suffer a devastating blow from another one of the Behemoth Clan's pillars.

When she turned to look at where she had exactly gone into, she could see now that Rayna had crashed into the very building where Raze was.

"Now, it's time for you to go as well!" Yanin swung his hammer once again.

Rather than taking the blow head-on or looking for a chance to escape though, she had decided to narrowly move back. It missed her only just; it almost looked like it had brushed against Anna's clothing.

'I can calculate the trajectory of the attack and avoid it, but I know my punches also do nothing to harm this man in front of me, so what is it exactly that I should do?'

Anna said to herself. Continuing to avoid her attacks, she knew exactly what to do, the reason why she had come here in the first place.

She had jumped back and had entered the main room.

"Noo!!" Rayna shouted. "What are you doing coming in here, we need to get him away."

Anna wanted to shout back, saying how ridiculous that would be. Clearly, if there were three of them, it would be better than two, and she doubted that Raze could say anything when the attacker was in the same building as him.

Then she saw it, she saw what Rayna was looking at. Several drawings had been marked on the floor, Qi pills in front of them.

Then, in the middle of the room, frozen as if not even a part of this world, not even knowing what was happening in front of him was Raze.

He was sitting crossed-legged, his eyes closed as if he was in a type of zen state.

Anna could tell that the way he was now, it was more like that of someone who was dreaming, but for so much noise to happen and not to wake up.

In the middle of all of this, a large chunk of the front wall was bashed, large chunks of the wall broken hit towards the others.

Anna used what she could to hit the chunks of concrete away. Now coming through the door was Yanin.

"Oh, just the person I have been looking for then. This is far easier than I thought, but It wouldn't have been much of a match anyway; he's just an alchemist after all," Yanin claimed as he lifted up his hammer, and it was now pointed towards Raze.

"No, I won't let you!" Rayna screamed at the top of her lungs, running forward. Her sword was covered in all the might of her Qi.

She screamed as she lifted her sword and directly hit against the head. The floorboards broke beneath her feet as she was pushing against the mass of power.

Yet she wasn't alone, because by her side, Anna with her hands was pushing as well, and several creaking sounds were coming from her.

"Haha cute, but useless," Yanin exclaimed.

The end of his large hammer started to glow, and then controlling his Qi, like a pulse from the tip of his weapon, the two of them were hurled and crashed into the ground in front of them.

They were both badly hurt, unable to get up, but they were both also still breathing.

"If you're so desperate to die so quickly, then I'll get rid of you first!" Yanin lifted up the hammer again and swung it down in the same spot.

"Eclipse Strike!" Words were heard in the middle of Yanin's swing.

He soon saw a sword coming from below, covered in Darkness. The sword clashed, and a mass amount of Qi and darkness was surrounding the entire hammer, pushing it back.

Until Yanin lost out in power, his hammer was pushed up, and the strike continued upward, hitting the roof and completely destroying it, letting the sunlight come in.

Yanin looked at what just happened, and could see one man in front of the two of them.

"You two did well, you made sure no one disturbed me."

Looking up from the ground, Rayna could see her saviour, as his hair turned from black, turning to white due to the magical power that had just been used.

"Raze..!" She blurted out, with eyes full of tears.
