Chapter 157: Beast horde unleashed

William paid no further attention to those players, allowing them to come along merely for observation, without expecting them to be of any use whatsoever.

The tasks of the Beast God Cult were at least of gold-level difficulty, if not higher.

Even months after the chaos of the Blood Sacrifice erupted, players were mere background decorations, with no chance of resistance whatsoever.

They were approaching Cortana’s house. With a gesture from William, Bivis waved his hand, and the soldiers behind them all stopped in unison, without any unnecessary movements.

William lightly tapped his staff on the ground, and a figure emerged from the shadows in a nearby corner.

It was the Silver Assassin, Rist.

“Did anyone enter that house after I left yesterday?”

William asked Rist, with Bivis and others beside him equally interested in the question.

“No, Lord William.”

Rist was almost scared to death, keeping his head down and barely daring to speak.

What kind of setup was this? Especially standing beside William, each of those people’s aura was no weaker than the Brotherhood of Eagles.

In other words, these six or seven people were all gold-level experts!

“Hmm.”

William looked at Bivis and Odysseus, and Odysseus nodded.

Fourth Circle Arcane: Silence! Seventh Circle Spell: Group Invisibility!

Under the effect of Odysseus’s spell, the figures of William and his group gradually disappeared into the air. The soldiers behind them showed no curious expressions, just standing silently in place, waiting for orders.

“Where?”

Odysseus’s voice echoed from nowhere, but the sound remained stagnant around the few people, not spreading out, not even the sound of footsteps.

This was the Archmage’s Silent Spell, far exceeding the original Fourth Circle spell after modification.

“Follow me, into the passage behind the living room.”

William’s voice followed closely behind, and the gold-ranked experts followed closely behind him, heading towards the basement.

In the dim passage of the house now, the candles on either side used for illumination had long been extinguished, as if no one had been there for a long time.

William pointed to the basement door, which was close by, and gestured to Bivis and Odysseus.

After carefully examining it, Odysseus nodded to Bivis, indicating that the door was indeed enchanted with the spell “Reversal Gate.”

Moreover, Odysseus did sense an ominous smell from within, as if some deep darkness and danger were lurking inside.

After confirmation, Bivis didn’t say much either, gesturing for William and the others to step back a few steps.

How to enter the secret room beyond the “Reversal Gate”?

The simplest method was to directly break it with an attack exceeding the limit it could withstand.

And the most suitable person present for this was Bivis.

Bivis took a deep breath, as if sucking all the air around him, mobilizing all his strength. His skin slightly reddened, and a pure and bright golden light began to condense on the long sword held in Bivis’s hands.

This was the power of breaking magic relied upon by golden warriors the Power of Breaking Magic.

Martial Technique: Golden Lion’s Claw!

The already golden sword fiercely slashed at the “Reversal Gate.” Under Bivis’s formidable strength, this seventh-circle spell had no resistance whatsoever, shattering instantly.

After the “Reversal Gate,” in the secret room.

After completing today’s scheduled communication with Kaizer, Peter sat down nearby.

The number of demon beasts sent for the plan was still far from enough. Peter didn’t know how well-prepared Kaizer was on his end.

For some reason, ever since the young mage left yesterday, Peter always felt uneasy, as if something bad was about to happen.

But he had checked the secret room several times; the Blood Sacrifice ritual array had no issues, operating normally.

The magical beasts were also under the influence of potions and the divine power of the Beast God, sleeping quietly without any incidents.

But he always had a feeling of impending doom, and as time passed, the shadow over his heart grew darker.

Something was wrong, definitely wrong! That young mage from yesterday was not right!

Peter could no longer sit still, standing up from his chair to inform Kaizer of the situation.

Just then, he suddenly saw a golden crack appear on the “Reversal Gate.”

Boom!

A deafening sound echoed out of nowhere, and the house, infused with numerous spells, suddenly shattered. Amidst the smoke, several figures rushed towards Peter.

“Damn it!”

Peter couldn’t fail to understand what was happening. Strong individuals from the kingdom were already at his doorstep?

Swiftly retreating, Peter took out the communication device given by Kaizer, but no matter how he urged it, there was no response.

Peter looked up and saw an old man in luxurious wizard robes standing outside, a staff emitting an inexplicable radiance in his hand.

If it were communication between peers, it might be tricky for Odysseus, but disrupting a communication device was straightforward.

Although William and the others were prepared to strike preemptively, delaying the Beast God Cult’s receipt of information could still allow them to concentrate their forces to clear out this location first.

“Damn it, our communication was disrupted by them!”

With a change of heart, the situation now couldn’t be any worse.

There was no time to hesitate. Remembering Kaizer’s instructions, Peter gritted his teeth and smashed the ground fiercely, activating the Blood Sacrifice ritual array inscribed on the ground, while simultaneously undoing the divine spells enveloping the slumbering magical beasts.

Bivis saw the blood array emitting a fierce aura on the ground, and the various-sized magical beasts on one side of the secret room awakening with varying degrees of momentum. His expression remained unchanged, but his eyes became much more fierce.

Alright, you fools from the Beast God Cult!

You’re asking for it!

Amidst anger, Bivis also felt a hint of relief in his heart. Luckily William discovered this, or else letting these cultists prepare fully would have caused a catastrophic disaster in Canlight City.

No time for further thoughts, Bivis took the lead, fiercely slashing towards Peter with immense force.

Peter took out a wolf-toothed club covered in various spikes, laboriously blocking Bivis’s sword strike.

As a ruthless person who had endured the baptism of the evil gods, Peter was ruthless towards others and towards himself.

This was the reason he acted recklessly within the Beast God Cult.

However, even so, his strength was far inferior to Bivis, the kingdom’s top warrior, especially now that Bivis wasn’t adhering to knightly etiquette.

The gold-ranked experts from the Knights’ legion behind him also joined in, beginning a batttle against Peter.

Peter couldn’t withstand the onslaught for long and was severely injured, unable to rise. Bivis then grabbed him by the neck and lifted him up.

Meanwhile, William was beside Odysseus, closely monitoring the battle.

Peter’s defeat was just the beginning; greater dangers lay ahead.

As the magical beasts gradually awakened, the erupting ferocious and savage aura began to spread outward.
