LEGENDARY GUARDIAN 291 Chapter 291

His body then spun to the left as the already glowing magic weapon in his hands began ama.s.sing more golden aura.

Swoos.h.!.+

Bang!!

Using the enhanced magic weapon, Fernandos blocked another monster-size green vine attacking from the side since he couldn't block, getting blown away without any resistance. Luckily for him, the vines were not focused on anyone, in particular, so they attacked any enemy in reach since there were hundreds of paladins around.

Puti!

Fernandos only managed to regain control of his body after he had traveled over three hundred meters. He tells he had broken more bones than he actually possessed from that single attack and quickly used a holy prayer technique, cure, to heal all the damage he received in a matter of seconds.

"Retreat… all of you… mages provide cover fire!" 

No one had to tell Fernandos that letting his soldiers fight against Francis at close quarters was akin to suicide. In just a few seconds after the attack, more than a hundred paladins had already died at Francis' hands! Even if the nature mage was greatly weakened thanks to the aid of their palace master, it still didn't mean they were his opponents. Fernandos had learned that the hard way on this very day but that did discourage him from diving in a second time.

His care and worry were only limited to those in his unit and other members of the life palace. His own safety has always been secondary in his priority list, his primary objective has always been to win. This kind of mindset may be considered insane and flawed yet it is the reason he has gone this far and is considered a vicious fighter who will use suicidal techniques just to harm his foe.

"Since you are begging for a date with death, I send you over to the other side!" Francis was greatly annoyed when he saw his opponent retreat but then a lone paladin flying towards him with a smug look on his face.

Does he really think a silver realm elite at the peak grade can stand against a mid-grade gold realm master?

"Impossible!" Francis roared to answer his own thoughts

Xiu!

All six green vines ignored the fleeing paladins and spells and lunged towards the lone paladin who seemed to be amused by Francis's action. Under Francis's murderous gaze, Fernandos slipped through every gap and holes left by the ma.s.sive vines, closing on the nature mage while successfully escaped the first wave of attack without breaking his concentration, steadily ama.s.sing more power in his magic weapon which was already trembling violently.

"Is that all the great nature mage is capable of? Hahaha! If that's the case then I'm disappointed" Fernandos laughed heartily.

"IMPUDENT FOOL!" Francis's eyes turned bloodshot in anger as he recalled his vines and launched a second wave of attack on the young paladin.

Using simple hand gestures to manipulate the huge vines, Francis forced three out of the six attacking vines to circle around the paladin, waiting for an opening to strike while the other three lunged at him viciously!

"Dodge!" Agus screamed from afar while preparing his spells in case things go south.

"I know!" Fernandos grunted while he retreated, trying to increase the distance between himself and the ma.s.sive vines heading his way, but even after crossing over three hundred meters, the vines still followed while Francis was stationary.

Fernandos was soon forced to drift from side to side to evade the vines while using his blade to push aside vines that brushed against him while keeping his eyes on the other three vines which kept moving towards his blind spots. In his opinion, the most dangerous nature of this spell was its almost limitless range. The ability to keep moving even when the caster was stationary and this made him feel insecure in battle. While Fernandos despaired and kept retreating he soon realized the flaw of this spell, not only was the speed of the vines reducing the farther it moved from the caster but the strength and size reduced drastically as well.

"Hahaha! Strike now!" Fernandos suddenly roared. Obviously pleased with his discovery.

He watched the three vines lash at him but was able to deflect two with his glowing blade while catching the third with his left hand. At that point, the other three vines circling him suddenly lunged at his blind spot hoping to impale him from behind but to Francis's greatest surprise layers upon layers of golden walls appeared behind Fernandos, successfully stopping the vines after it successfully tore down over fifteen layers. 

"It ends here! Holy prayer: Archangel!" Fernandos didn't bother holding back the moment he saw a chance, quickly activating his greatest paladin spell.

Instantly he was consumed by a powerful pillar of golden light which utterly destroyed all the vines around, reducing them to dust. The light soon faded and a topless Fernandos with a large pair of angel wings and countless golden runes on his bare chest appeared. On his right hand was a golden divine sword which kept on vibrating due to the sheer amount of raw aura stored into it.

"Die you heretic" Fernandos facial expression was cold and expressionless after the transformation and his original smooth voice seemed to be overlapped by a deep, hoa.r.s.e voice.

With a single stride forward, Fernandos had crossed hundreds of meters, appearing right in front of Francis. His hands were raised and the magic weapon in his hands trembled as he released a great arc of golden light to consume the nature mage who in turn hid within the remaining two vines which served as a powerful spherical s.h.i.+eld.

Enraged by the wasted effort when it saw Francis emerge unscathed, Fernandos roared and released a ma.s.sive beam of light aura from his mount, planning to swallow Francis whole and subdue him with superior power.

While a few people considered this a good move, only a few experts could understand the blunders Fernandos committed.
