Chereads / Heimarian Odyssey / Chapter 271 - ambush

Chapter 271 - ambush

In the Forest Plain Continent, in a primeval forest labeled as the sixth war zone by the Hall of Knights and the Holy Tower, the 200-meter-tall bronze man, Argus, led countless knights in the sky and launched a genocide attack on the activated fairies living here.

Under the forest, hundreds of thousands of low-level activated fairies were like headless flies, fleeing in a disorderly manner.

The demigod-level Argus was too much of a deterrent to them. The fear from the source of their bloodline made these low-level activated fairies ignore the commands of the Level-1 castellan and even the Level-2 Lord-level activated fairies.

Even the Level One and Level Two Animated Fairies had begun to flee in a small area due to their overwhelming defeat.

The bronze man, Argus, who was charging at the forefront, laughed loudly and grabbed an activated fairy that was scurrying on the ground.

This was a watermelon activated fairy, and from the looks of it, it was not young. It was three meters tall, and its size was dozens of times that of an ordinary watermelon in the Sorcerers World. Its appearance was just like its performance, tender and delicious.

Argus smacked his lips and threw it into his huge mouth. Scarlet juice splattered everywhere, and the watermelon man was swallowed into Argus' stomach without even making a sound.

This watermelon man, whose strength was infinitely close to that of a Level-1 creature, contributed about 1.5 grams of activated essence to Argus.

"Almost there, just a little more …" Argus muttered.

After saying that, he took large strides and chased in the direction where the large army of activated fairies had fled. It was a plain that was rated as the fifth war zone.

Low-level animated fairies could not do anything in the face of the legions of knights who were above level-one.

The army of slave creatures that had been placed in various parts of the world of the activated fairies by the Void Fortress had been summoned back over the past few days.

The slave creatures whose soul fire imprints were controlled by the mages and knights had to come back obediently the moment the imprints took effect, no matter where they fled.

"Lord Argus, Lord Bolon has asked us to stop advancing!" In the sky, a Level-2 Earth Knight flew in the air and shouted into Argus' ear to the bronze giant in front of him.

Argus frowned, thought for a moment, and stopped in his tracks.

"Do you have a reason?" Argus, who was two hundred meters tall, caused the air to tremble violently with every word he spoke.

"Because the official army has all landed, we need to defend the seventh occupied zone. Furthermore, according to the original division of the war zones, the fifth zone belongs to the Sanctum." The Erdritch Knight relayed the orders he knew.

"Okay." Argus' dark green eyebrows slowly relaxed as he helplessly accepted the order.

The amount of activated essence stored in his body had already reached sixty to seventy thousand grams. In other words, in this month alone, he had devoured around fifty thousand low-level activated fairies, not to mention the higher-level activated fairies.

With so many living things entering his stomach, there was no change at all. It could only be said that Argus had an enviable iron stomach.

He had gained enough during this period of time. Argus was considering whether he should stop. After all, maintaining his true form for a month was a huge drain even for a demigod like him.

There were quite a number of Animated Fairies left in the occupied areas. If he searched carefully, he would be able to gather the number he needed.

Argus thought about it and felt relieved.

He slowly turned around and prepared to leave this place. He turned a blind eye to the plains of the fifth war zone that he could already see when he looked up.

At this time, in the plains not far from Argus, several powerful level-three activated fairies hid their auras and laid in ambush.

"Gold, are you sure he'll come?" A pumpkin-man activated fairy whose flowers and leaves had mostly withered looked at the Sunflower Priest with a puzzled expression.

The Sunflower Priest's full name was only one word — Gold.

Other than the Sunflower Priest and this pumpkin-man activated fairy, there were four other level-three activated fairies here.

They were all sages who had been awakened by Gold and the World Tree not long ago.

The reason why these level-three activated fairies that should have dissipated in the long river of history of activated fairies still existed was essentially the ingenious use of the activated essence in their bodies.

It could be understood that they were using the activated essence in their bodies in exchange for the upper limit of their lifespan.

The more activated essence in their bodies, the longer they could live after being awakened.

But now, these level-three activated fairies did not care about the length of their lifespan.

The moment they were awakened, they instantly knew what kind of crisis their plane was facing through the sorrowful wailing of the plane's will and the mental transmission of the Sunflower Priest to Gold.

Without the slightest hesitation, these awakened top-level activated fairies did not have the right to maintain their old age. Under the command of the World Tree, they headed to the various activated fairies to resist the invaders.

However, this power had not yet been revealed due to the calculations of the World Tree and the Sunflower Priest. They wanted to give the invaders a huge surprise.

"Yes, they should be back, right?" The Sunflower Priest replied uncertainly. The cucumber man in front of him could be considered as the previous priest of the Holy City, his senior. Hence, Gold's tone was very respectful towards the cucumber man activated fairy.

"Should I go out and take a look?" Another purple grape man activated fairy asked. Unlike the normal grape man activated fairies that were crystal clear and full of particles, this purple grape man activated fairy was darker in color, and the particles on its body were more shriveled and coarse.

This grape man was more than five thousand years old. He was the oldest person here.

"Don't, let me go!" The Sunflower Priest hurriedly said. This old man was publicly recognized as a good person in the world of activated fairies. If anything happened to him here today, as a priest of the Holy City, he would not be able to escape punishment.

Seeing a few old men who should have been buried fighting to go up here, Gold suddenly flew into the sky and shot towards the forest outside the plains.

That was the frontline of the knight army's invasion, and also the last place Argus appeared.

The moment the Level 3 banana man Priest Gold appeared in the sixth battle zone, countless knights in the knight army sensed it. This was because this level-three activated fairy released its full aura and rushed over.
