Chapter 345: The Battle Returns

Escape? Escape was sure. To not point out Leite, however Cleos was a bona fide three-wing Sanctuary. I had no probability of profitable.

Hostage? The one particular person beside me was the receptionist, and to not point out whether or not my conscience would enable it, the issue was that the receptionist was already incapacitated and couldn’t even transfer.

If taking a cell particular person as a hostage is like using a horse, then taking an motionless particular person as a hostage is like being ridden by the horse. It might solely improve the Purple Hat’s anger with out another impact.

Ashe knew the battle was unavoidable. He was at present on the reception desk, a distance from the steps, and needed to combat to achieve an opportunity to flee.

So, how ought to he combat? Usually, at this level, Ashe would select to make use of a Substitute to draw the enemy’s consideration by sacrificing it…

However the Substitute ought to nonetheless be with Lise…

After a second of silence, Ashe immediately raised his fingers and stood up, strolling in direction of the Purple Hats voluntarily. “I give up.”

“No give up allowed!” Leite and Cleos shouted in unison. The Purple Hats all raised their weapons and aimed toward Ashe—being a T0 degree Spellcasting Sect of this technology, nearly all Purple Hats had been gun sorcerers, and even when it wasn’t their fundamental sect, it was their secondary sect.

Ashe was shocked. “You gained’t even let me give up? Then why haven’t you simply shot me already? Are you actually this barbaric?”

The 2 Purple Hat captains had been additionally annoyed. They knew precisely what Ashe was as much as, however they actually couldn’t lead by illegally killing a surrendering legal. The truth is, they didn’t even dare to hurt Ashe—except Ashe explicitly resisted arrest. In any other case, though Ashe was a fugitive, in the event that they initiated the assault, the Gospel E-book would deem them responsible of intentional hurt.

Civilization is a shackle on violence; the extra civilized a rustic, the extra cautious it’s in utilizing violence.

Within the Blood Moon Kingdom, they may nonetheless secretly break the regulation, however the strongest level of the Gospel E-book Kingdom is that supervision is omnipresent. So long as the Purple Hats needed to stay on the rating listing, they completely wouldn’t dare to interrupt the regulation first.

Cleos motioned for a Purple Hat to place handcuffs on Ashe, her eyes reddening. “Preserve your fingers up. Should you make any sudden strikes, we’ll goal your very important factors. Any motion will likely be met with deadly power.”

“I’m only a mere two-wings sorcerer; how may I dare act out in entrance of a Sanctuary sorcerer?” Ashe shrugged and waited obediently for the Purple Hat to restrain him.

Nonetheless, because the Purple Hat approached Ashe, his black gown immediately cut up open—he had used his Coronary heart Sword to chop by way of his garments!

Bang! Bang!

“Shut your eyes!”

As Leite shouted, Ashe instantly dashed in direction of the sport pods.

As a result of he had waited for the Purple Hat to get shut earlier than revealing his dagger, a slight sidestep allowed him to cover behind the Purple Hat, making it unattainable for the others to danger hitting their colleague. The bullets all struck the bottom.

All of the Purple Hats rapidly closed their eyes and scattered, however a number of of them nonetheless aimed their weapons on the stairwell and home windows. Ashe’s final little bit of hope vanished as he obediently bumped into the aisle between the sport pods, feeling a pang of remorse—

The Purple Hats had nearly completely averted his “Fiend Trench Coat” intimidation!

As quickly as he slashed his gown, that they had all closed their eyes, none of them witnessing Ashe’s fiendish visage!

It made sense, although. The Artwork Rating had clearly displayed his reward, and after Ashe had used the “Fiend Trench Coat” to scare off two affairs commissioners from the Glad Household Agency in Azura, the Purple Hats had been undoubtedly ready.

However this additionally labored in his favor. Since that they had closed their eyes and deserted their most important sense, Ashe may escape extra simply. Although it was despicable, underneath the duvet of the dense sport pods, the Purple Hats wouldn’t dare to assault recklessly. In the event that they injured an harmless Vamora citizen, they may say goodbye to their hats—

Nonetheless—

However standing up was extraordinarily harmful. Ashe wasn’t an upstanding citizen; he was a bona fide fugitive. The Purple Hats killing him wouldn’t simply be excused; they’d get a reward!

But, at this level, how may Ashe not belief Igor?

He clenched his sword fingers, activated the Devotion spirit, changing all his ache, worry, and preventing spirit into pleasure. Then he activated the Love Sword spirit, conjuring a “Pleasure Sword,” and stabbed it into his stomach!

Miracle: Single-minded Devotion: Pleasure Sword!

Heat unfold from his stomach, soothing his total physique. Pleasure seeped in from the surface in, and Ashe was pleasantly shocked to search out his ache suppressed by the Pleasure Sword, at the very least not dominating his ideas. The gears of his physique may barely begin transferring once more.

Although the ache would doubtless return as soon as the Pleasure Sword’s impact wore off, Ashe may at the very least maintain out lengthy sufficient to finish his tactical activity!

“Ugh!”

Ashe propped himself up in opposition to the sport pod and stood. He noticed Cleos seem within the hallway. He groaned and summoned the Coronary heart Sword, launching it on the Sanctuary sorcerer!

“Confirming that Ashe Heath is resisting arrest,” Cleos mentioned, effortlessly shattering the Coronary heart Sword along with her eyes closed. “Elevate the kill restriction!”

Increase!

The ground immediately shook, and a large, ghostly inexperienced magic circle appeared beneath the Purple Hats. Ghostly inexperienced smoke seeped into their our bodies, rapidly reacting with their souls.

Even with their eyes closed, the Purple Hats appeared to see a abandoned, wet evening road. Their garments felt soaked, chilly wind stinging their faces, and a barrage of destructive feelings—despair, sorrow, self-pity, worry, and coldness—overwhelmed their hearts. Even Cleos and Leite shivered barely.

Instantly beneath the Purple Hats, on the decrease degree, an inverted coffin was suspended from the ceiling. A number of ghostly inexperienced chains emerged from the coffin, tightly anchoring it to the ceiling, forming an octagonal magic circle. Harvey lay on the bottom, gazing up on the coffin together with his fingers clasped in prayer.

Miracle: Immortal Coffin on a Chilly Wet Night time!

Utilizing necromancy to realize the results of the Phantasm Sect and Psychological Sect, it poured destructive vitality into the enemies, inflicting them to hallucinate!

Within the few breaths whereas the Purple Hats had been dazed, Igor jumped down and pulled Ashe into the Purple Hats’ blind spot. He raised his voice and shouted, “I’m about to launch a Psychological Scream. Odd folks inside ten meters will drop lifeless immediately simply by listening to it. Three, two, one!”

The Purple Hats, struggling to interrupt free from the destructive vitality, turned pale. The Psychological Scream was imminent, they usually had no time to kill Igor, the mastermind behind this!

Ashe was initially puzzled by Igor’s behavior of narrating his final transfer, however simply earlier than Igor unleashed his silent scream, the Purple Hats raised their weapons and fired at numerous components of the gaming flooring—floor, ceiling, and partitions—utilizing Earth spell Miracles to create short-term soundproof boundaries!

In the intervening time Igor launched his silent scream, a petite blue determine flipped over the outer wall and onto the gaming flooring—it was Banjeet Dolan.

The strongest ice gun sorcerer from the Funeral Agency.

At that second, the younger butler confronted a gaggle of Purple Hats with their backs to him.

In a single second, the twin ice spell weapons emptied their magazines, and 62 Miracle bullets rained down on the enforcers like a sudden downpour. Upon impression, these bullets would extract the blood from the enemies’ our bodies, forming sharp ice flowers for secondary harm, turning loss of life into a superb, crystalline murals!

The right mixture of gun spellcasting and ice spells, the place effectivity and class complement one another!

Miracle: Blooming Ice!
