Leon's face also paled as he looked at the three terrifying beasts in front of him. He felt an extreme amount of dread now. He and his brother could not even fight against the Green Scaled King Kong together. Now with the introduction of the Golden Fur Lion King and the Bladed King Crocodile, their chance of winning was practically zero, even stalling for time would be a massive headache. It would be extremely difficult for them to fight against three Peak Level Beast Kings at the same time.
Leo sucked in a deep breath as he tried to shake away the extremely cold feeling in his limbs. Immediately, he turned to Caesar, "Quickly, notify every commoner in Mirage City, they must evacuate as soon as possible. Mirage City is no longer safe!"
"Ye-yes…I will do that now." Caesar replied with an equally white face. Three Peak Level Beast Kings were not something Mirage City could defend against. Even if a Middle Tier Magical Cannon was able to injure them, Mirage City would still need at least five Peak Kings to improve their chances of winning.
"What do we do now?!" Leon asked.
"Right now we can only hope to stall for time by blocking them. Fight, so that the commoners of Mirage City will be able to evacuate. Although we are powerless to win, we can still stall for time. If we can do that, then those three Peak Level Beast Kings will be hindered for just enough time. But we still need to be careful so we don't get injured, otherwise, I'm afraid we will become easy targets for the Peak Level Beast Kings and most likely end up dead." Leo spoke seriously.
Leon nodded his head without saying a word.
Within the crowd, Erza was also looking at the two Beast Kings standing behind the ape. She had also realized the seriousness of their situation.
"It seems like I am left with only one option…" Erza muttered under her breath.
The three Beast Kings stood still with their presence overwhelming the senses of everyone else around while causing the other beasts to shiver with fright. Even the mercenaries who had just been fighting them felt a cold feeling of dread within their hearts and a stone like pressure pressing down on them.
"What…what is that?" At last, someone spoke referring to the three beasts.
"It's too late, I can't see a good ending from here…"
"A Green Scaled King Kong! How could it be…"
"Not good, that's a Peak Level Beast King! Only a Peak Level Beast King would be able to emit such a pressure like this…"
"So those three are Peak Level Beast Kings? Heavens, how could there be three of them…?"
"Retreat! No one can withstand a Peak Level Beast King!"
......…..
Not too many mercenaries had seen a Peak Level Beast King before, but the ones that did instantly grew fearful and cried out at the sight of them. With three Peak Level Beast Kings standing right in front of them, they all grew white with fright. Throwing down their helmets, they began to flee back toward Mirage City.
Even the King Realm experts who had already known about the Peak Level Beast King had their faces pale with fright. Although they had fore knowledge of there being Peak King experts helping them, the situation was different now. There were three Peak Level Beast Kings! Even the experts from the Imperial City would not be enough to deal with them.
"Retreat! Everyone retreat!"
Immediately, the mercenaries all cried out the signal to retreat. Not long after that, the city gates to Mirage City had nearly 100,000 mercenaries and soldiers trying to make their way inside in order to escape from the battlefield.
"Don't panic everyone, the Peak Level Beast Kings will be dealt with by us!"
All of a sudden, a booming voice called out from nowhere as two blue streaks of light flew down from the walls like a shooting star toward the Peak Level Beast Kings.
Both the Peak Kings Leo and Leon had finally made a move. Although they had wanted to wait a little longer to engage to buy some time, but with the panic happening below, they could not hesitate any longer. If the entire fighting force were to retreat into the city, then not only would the entire city be in chaos, but it would also make the city easier to invade.
Leo and Leon were surrounded by a layer of ice wall as they flew through the sky. It took them another fifty meters before finally dropping to the ground. While still surrounded by the ice barrier, they charged straight toward the Peak Level Beast Kings.
"Peak Kings!" Many people gasped in shock as they could feel the strong aura coming from Leo and Leon.
"Peak King, so there are experts like that here?"
"To think that there would be two Peak Kings here…."
"Who give a f*ck about two Peak Kings? We are up against three Peak Level Beast Kings!! I repeat, THREE!"
"Yes, it's useless… We better escape while we still have the chance."
Upon realizing the presences of Peak King Realm experts on their side, many of the mercenaries were overjoyed and shouted out in disbelief. However, soon the more intelligent people realized that their situation was still very grim. Beast had an innate superiority compared to humanity. If there were three Peak Level Beast Kings, then what could two Peak Kings do?
Realizing the situation still worsened despite the fact that Leo and Leon already joining the war, Erza gritted her teeth then inhaled a mouthful air of breath.
*BOOM!*
A terrifying amount of essences suddenly exploded out from Erza's body. Quickly, green glow of light appeared and covered the sky above Mirage City. As everyone was wondering what was going on, a young girl's voice was heard reverberating in the surroundings.
"Why are you all in panic? Will it turn our situation around? Will it bring back our fallen brothers and sisters? Will it save your loved ones in the city who are currently waiting for your victorious return?!"
"Now! Is not the time to worry about your and your loved ones' lives!"
"Now! Is not the time to cry over your fallen brothers and sisters!"
"Now! IS NOT the time for despair!!" Erza's voice resounded in everyone's ear.
"Imagine what your life would be after we successfully go through this beast wave! Imagine all the fame and riches! Imagine all the smiles and warmth of your loved ones!"
"BROTHERS! SISTERS! LIFT UP YOUR HEAD!"
"NOW IS THE TIME FOR YOU TO LEAVE YOUR MARK IN THE ANNAL OF HISTORY!"
"NOW IS THE TIME FOR YOU TO STAND UP PROTECTING THOSE WHO MATTERS TO YOU!"
"NOW IS THE TIME FOR YOU TO REVENGE YOUR FALLEN BROTHERS AND SISTERS!"
"NOW IS THE TIME FOR YOU TO FIGHT!!!"
"To fight…."
"Fight…"
Erza's voice strongly reverberated in the air as there was unexpectedly a mysterious power mixed within the voice which struck deep into everyone's hearts and ignited their hopes.
This was the first time Erza ever did something like this. Panting slightly due to her excitement and nervousness, Erza quickly gritted her teeth and muttered.
"Empyrean Art: Star of Hope!"
