Vile Evil Hides Under The Veil Chapter 1181 House Lowin And White Flames

Chapter 1181 House Lowin And White Flames

JJ Edgar was a lion half-blood.

He obtained the White Flame Lion bloodline. After obtaining the bloodline and becoming a Sage, he became a prominent figure in House Lowin. This was a prominent faction inside the Last Blood Bastion.

Edgar chose to overwhelm his opponent right off the bat. He tapped into his bloodline transformation from the start, indicating that he hadn't taken Hansen or the forces behind him lightly.

Edgar was around 20 ft tall in his beastly form. He had a thick and voluminous mane and grayish-blue eyes. It seemed that he didn't need weapons. His beastly jaw could tear apart anything Hansen throws his way. His razor-sharp claws had a peculiar s.h.i.+ne to them.

Roar!

The thundering sound of a giant white lion's roar was heard on the battlefield and everyone lost cool. Even the most veteran rankers had gooseb.u.mps when they heard this roar. They felt like their souls were stirring while listening to the roar.

Hansen gulped empty air when he saw Edgar. He knew half-bloods were powerful forces. However, this was Hansen's first time seeing a Sage-ranked bloodline transformation unfold in front of him. And he had to say that the old record description didn't do justice to its actual prowess.

Edgar stopped feeling like a human completely. But he also didn't look like a mana beast. The rankers in the area who weren't aware of the half-bloods' existence realized that the third force was not as simple as it looked. That the half-bloods were a completely different breed than them.

JJ didn't waste time after the transformation. With another roar, he issued a few telepathic commands to his pride before disappearing from his place.

"Aaaaaargh!"

"Help…. Aaaaaah!"

"This… this is the end…"

The battlefield was divided into two despite the many fortifications beneath it. The ground shook and the air turned hot. Most of the rankers felt like they were about to die just by the sheer pressure and suffocation they were feeling. Some fainted on the spot. Others were brought to their knees.

The white flame manifestations started appearing out of thin air. Sage Edgar's individuality affected the surroundings despite him limiting his focus to just being Hansen.

The white flames incinerated everything they came into contact with instantly. They were fleeting and couldn't stay burning for long. However, they were extremely hot, giving even Sage-ranked ent.i.ties third-degree burns if they were ill-equipped and not careful.

What's more? The white flames also burn spiritual force. As a result, they could affect the target's soul. If the target's spiritual force was completely burned off, they would die without their body suffering any form of mortal harm.

Even the fleeting appearance of these Sage-ranked flames killed more than a few dozen unlucky partic.i.p.ants instantly. The death toll ceased after the Kingdom of Edinburgh took countermeasures. The kingdom's defensive elemental and spatial measures kicked in and prevented the Sage-ranked flames from affecting the young rankers.

"Aaaaaaaaaargh!"

n.o.body knew when the two Sages– Hansen and Edgar- reached the skies. The rankers of Edinburgh, infiltrators of Layos, and half-bloods of the Last Blood Bastion soon heard a mortifying scream. They realized Hansen had been injured immediately.

Meaning Edgar dominated Hansen in a matter of moments. The sky was split as white flames erupted above the Edinnica Arena. Some flames reached the golden sphere of Sansara World. The sea of white flames soon surrounded and consumed the golden sphere in its domain.

Swoosh. Drop. Boom.

Hansen's body crashed to the ground from a high alt.i.tude after Edgar used his huge beastly paws on him. It looked like a giant lion dealing with a meager fly.

Hansen tried to control the trajectory using various spells available to him, but they didn't help him. Plus, their activation killed more people below him.

Boom.

It felt like someone had detonated a Sage-ranked RDX inside the battlefield. Hansen's crash was like a meteor falling from the sky. It killed the rankers in the vicinity and injured others who couldn't get away on time.

Pure, palpable mayhem.

Still, Hansen wasn't dead. The Sages were more resilient to battle-related deaths than any other rankers in Anfang.

Hansen appeared as if he had never left his previous position. However, he was in dire condition. If Hansen's fight with Gregory was a warm-up, his face-off with Edgar was the real deal.

The difference in power between JJ Edgar and Hansen or Gregory was simply too much. Edgar's prominent half-blood lineage made him a powerhouse among the Sages currently active in Anfang. His bloodline was special. However, his individuality as a ranker was even more potent.

Hansen's right shoulder and a significant part of his right chest were destroyed. His beating heart and guts were exposed for everyone to see. It was a miracle by mortals' standards that he was alive. His defenses tried to fight off the white flames surrounding him. As the white flames burned his spiritual force, he also became spiritually exhausted.

Hansen's Sage-ranked body was damaged beyond reason. There wasn't as much blood loss as there should be. That's because Hansen tried to control blood loss.

Hansen's body tried to regenerate its flesh and bones. But every time it did that, the white flames would engulf that particular body part and burn off the new flesh that was trying to mend the wound.

JJ Edgar's foreign mana invasion ran rampant through Hansen's veins. It made him more injured by the second while burning his spiritual force.

Hansen's domineering Sage-ranked presence was not as potent as before because of these injuries. His clothes were torn. His hair was messy. His presence felt flickering like a lone flame lit in the middle of the storm.

One could say that Edgar was still holding back a bit.

That's because he knew putting all out against Hansen might put him at a disadvantage against Edinburgh's Sages who still had not shown themselves. They were waiting for Edgar to make a mistake or be lax in his defense. All so they could launch a fatal strike at him.

Still, the Sages' wait-and-wait approach made things difficult for Hansen. He did everything he could to make it look like he had been defeated by JJ's single move. However, one could say that he failed at his job. Because he looked pretty damaged and needed immediate medical care.
