I, the All-Class Magus, All My Awakening Skills are LvMax - Chapter 217

Chapter 217: Chapter217-Power of Control!
As the boundless power was about to strike them, everyone couldn’t help but close their eyes.

Some even silently prayed that if there were a next life, they must strive to live it well.

But the anticipated pain never came.

Many even thought they had already died, which is why they felt no pain.

Yet, some tried desperately to keep their eyes wide open.

Because they wanted to see what they were about to face!

They wanted to know in what manner they were going to die!

But what did they see?

The attack, filled with limitless power, was blocked!

It was actually blocked!

The protective shield in front of them burst into intense fluctuations, like a calm pool disrupted.

But it indeed blocked the wave of attack!

[Shield durability has reached zero, please replenish with energy stone promptly.]

Archibald heard the alert, his heart aching, but he dared not hesitate and immediately threw half of the existing energy stones into it!

This was no joke!

This was a semigod-tier powerhouse!

This shield was their only protection against a semigod-tier adversary!

Should any uncontrollable accident occur, this was their lifesaver!

Alastair seemed surprised that his attack had been blocked, momentarily taken aback.

Then, he intensified his force and launched another attack towards the protective shield!

Boom!

The skill hit the shield, creating a massive explosion that shattered the minor creatures around it!

Even the emerald-tier creatures were obliterated in the aftermath, reduced to nothing but dust.

Everyone saw the remains of the minor creatures turned into mush below, but all they felt was fear!

Such is the terror of a semigod-tier powerhouse!

However, to Alastair’s surprise, he launched two attacks, but both were blocked by the shield, which rippled like water; he simply could not harm the people behind it.

Initially, everyone had been worried, but seeing the semigod-tier attacks being blocked brought a slight relief to their hearts!

As long as they were inside, there would be no problems!

But only Archibald and John could see the precipitous drop in their energy reserves!

Each attack nearly depleted the shield’s durability entirely, and even replenishing it two or three times was hardly sufficient!

Although they now had the top-tier machinery, both knew all too well that once their energy stones were exhausted, they could only await death!

The moment John gained the power of control, his first action was to enhance the level of the protective shield.

This allowed them to withstand a strike from a semigod-tier powerhouse.

But this came at a cost—the energy stones were being consumed at a much faster rate than usual.

Already, nearly two hundred had been used!

They didn’t have many to begin with, and if this continued, they wouldn’t be able to hold out for much longer.

Alastair had unleashed several attacks, but found that the shield, thin as a film, still covered the entire fortress, causing him to frown slightly.

“It’s just relying on an energy supply, after all. I want to see just how much energy you have!”

With that, Alastair launched another barrage of attacks against the protective shield, like a storm.

Everyone watched in terror, but John didn’t stop; instead, he countered with his own skills!

Boom!

Both were Fire Meteors, but the skill John launched was vastly inferior to Alastair’s.

Alastair’s Fire Meteor’s aftermath completely obliterated the surrounding minor creatures, whereas John’s Fire Meteor, clashing with the skill, barely scratched it.

However, they soon noticed that when the slightly neutralized Fire Meteor hit the shield again, the durability seemed to decrease a bit slower than before.

Though slight, it was a glimmer of hope for them.

“Everyone, use your skills against their attacks! Fire!”

Although the others were still extraordinarily fearful of facing a semigod-tier powerhouse, at this moment, if they did not act, they faced certain death!

They had to give it their all, no matter what.

Even if the path was exceptionally difficult, they had to continue walking it.

Leopold clenched his teeth; as a swordsman, he wasn’t adept at ranged attacks, but over the past few days, he had forcefully trained himself in archery!

While not hitting the mark one hundred percent of the time, he could still target effectively and inflict significant damage.

The arrows they were using now were all Bone Arrows from previous monsters!

Old Nick had modified these arrows so that they would explode upon striking a target.

The resulting burning damage from the explosion was also quite substantial.

Previously, they had used these arrows against flying monsters or those with a lot of fur.

But now, as they shot these arrows at a semigod-tier powerhouse, they felt a particular thrill in their hearts.

Even if it is a semigod-tier powerhouse, so what!

We are not livestock to be slaughtered!

Everyone was a child nurtured by their families, possibly destined to become politicians, proud members of the military.

Or they might end up as do-nothings, or perhaps inheritors of their family’s legacy.

But without exception.

None of them wanted to die here!

None of them wanted to be livestock, ready for slaughter!

Even in death, they would die with dignity, with value!

A semigod-tier powerhouse, so what?!

We still dare to shoot our arrows!

Boom!

Boom, boom, boom!

Countless skills were unleashed towards Alastair’s Fire Meteor, smashing into it!

Little by little, with everyone’s combined efforts, half of the attack was actually dispersed!

At the same time, the durability of the protective shield decreased by half compared to before, filling everyone with immense joy.

Their efforts were indeed bearing fruit!

They truly didn’t have to wait here to die!

No matter what, as long as they dared to strike, there would be a path waiting for them!

A path that was gloriously radiant!

Even a few stray arrows grazed Alastair’s cheek, drawing a line of blood!

Alastair felt a sting on his face, touched it lightly, and saw the bright red on his fingers.

Though injured, Alastair was not angered but instead laughed.

As he laughed, the smile on his face vanished completely, replaced by a cold stare at the group before him.

“Very well, very well.”

A bunch of ants daring to harm him, a semigod-tier powerhouse?

He had initially thought of letting these people simply die to serve as an offering.

But now he regretted that.

He resolved to make their deaths painful!

He wanted them to bleed every last drop of blood in their bodies!

He wanted them to wail in agony even after death, their souls tormented, never finding peace!

Their screams of pain and cries of despair would be the perfect hymn to welcome the arrival of the great one!

“You…”

“Die!”

A tremendous energy gathered at Alastair’s fingertips, as if in that moment, the very heavens and earth changed color!

John’s expression instantly turned serious; he could feel it clearly!

The protective shield could not withstand this attack.

There was hardly any time to replenish it with energy stones before it would shatter completely!

This was a full-force strike from a semigod-tier powerhouse, utterly beyond their means to resist!

Outside, everyone watched anxiously, some even unknowingly digging their fingernails into their palms!

Blood flowed down from their clenched hands, as if only by this could they maintain a shred of sanity. But how could anyone remain calm after seeing all this unfold?!

Some even wanted to rush in, but what stood before them now was just a silver mirror broadcasting the scene live, nothing more, with no other function or use!

What to do?

What should they do?!
