In a short period, Gary led his Golden Gryphon and fled several kilometers away. However when he looked back, Haru's angels were getting closer and closer. They were only a few hundred meters away from him. He could even see the beautiful faces of the angels, as well as the angel wings that were emitting strange light.
As expected, it was like a legend. Angels were synonymous with beauty. The beauty of an angel was no longer limited to her appearance, but rather, it was an amazing charm that emanated from the inside out. This beauty could not be described in words.
However, Gary was not in the mood to appreciate the beauty of angels. He screamed in fear and ordered the Golden Gryphon under him to speed up. At the same time, he ordered a group of Golden Gryphons to leave the retreating team to fighting against the angels chasing after him and buy him some time to escape.
'I have sent twenty Golden Gryphons. The weakest among them is Tier 4 while the strongest is Tier 8! It should be able to buy some time.' Gary's heart ached. Every Golden Gryphon was carefully nurtured by him. He had also participated in the Beast Tide Battle, and their strength had greatly increased. Now that he was giving away his head, he naturally felt very uncomfortable.
"But as long as I can escape, it's worth it! Haru, sooner or later, I'll settle this debt with you!" Gary muttered to himself. He was not Haru's opponent, but he was standing behind the High Lords Council. In the future, when the top Castle Lords of the alliance would join forces, they would easily destroy Haru's Angel Castle, and he would be one of them.
At this moment, a shrill scream came from behind. He looked back and saw that his golden griffins had already made contact with Haru's angels. However, as soon as they came into contact with each other, a series of bloody streams burst out from the bodies of more than twenty Golden Gryphons. They did not even release their magic skills before they turned into corpses and started falling from the sky into the Dark Forest.
"How is that possible?!" Gary was shocked. There were more than twenty top-level troops, and one of them was an early Tier 8 Golden Gryphon Commander. They were taken care of in a single move? At the same time, he saw that the killer of the Golden Gryphon was a beautiful angel. The angel held a golden dagger in her hand. The Angel's Wings on her back were gray. There was a black light that seemed to emit a sense of death.
"Fallen Angel? Haru has even recruited a Fallen Angel?" Gary's eyes widened in disbelief. However, he no longer had time to think about it. He almost went crazy and roared, ordering the remaining ten-odd Golden Gryphons to run as fast as they could. He had to escape from this area! He would even escape from the Dark Forest and head to other places to make a comeback because staying here was a dead end for him.
"Heretic, you can't escape!" In the blink of an eye, a ray of light followed closely. It was Lysandra with the scepter in her hand. She advanced to Tier 9 after the battle of beast tide. She had almost reached the limit of 'experience'. She was only half a step away from reaching King Tier, comparable to Mary, and Seraphina. Lysandra waved her scepter and pointed forward.
"Lord says that when light envelops the world, evil and dark creatures have nowhere to run! Divine Skill — [Holy Light Confinement]!"
In an instant, dazzling Holy Light fell from the void, enveloping Gary and the dozen or so Golden Gryphons around him. Time seemed to have been frozen. Gary and his Golden Gryphon froze in the air. No matter how much they flapped their wings, they could not break free from the power of the Divine Skill [Holy Light Confinement] and they were all locked in place.
Lysandra was a peak Tier 9 Six-Winged Angel. Confining an enemy at the peak of Tier 8 with a Divine Technique was an easy task. She could even condense a dozen sacred crosses at once, and at the same time, she can bind Gary & his Golden Gryphons and burn them to ashes. This was the suppression of power on creatures that were one tier lower in strength and even bloodline!
Gary's top-level troops, the Golden Gryphons, were far from being able to compare to Lysandra, the Six-Winged Angel. Even at the same tier, Lysandra could easily defeat Gary's dozens of Golden Gryphons alone.
"Let me go!" Gary struggled desperately, wanting to break free from the Holy Light but in the end, it was useless. A large group of angels surrounded him.
"Don't kill me! I have no grudge against your Castle Lord! I'm willing to give you all the resources of the castle, as long as you spare my life!"
"Really?" The figure of the Angel of Death appeared in the air. The golden dagger flew across her fingertips like a dancing butterfly.
"Fallen Angel?!" Gary was shocked. When he saw the gray-winged angel at close range, he was more certain that she was the legendary Fallen Angel because Gary felt a huge feeling of death on her unlike other angels. Even if they surrounded him, it only gave him a sense of holiness.
"Who is a Fallen Angel?" Eveline glanced at him coldly. Then, with a low and hoarse voice, she said, "I am the Angel of Death created by the Almighty Lord. I am responsible for killing and punishing the heretics!"
"Angel of Death?" Gary was shocked. He didn't have the time to probe further. He said anxiously, "Don't kill me, I'm willing to hand over all the resources of my castle and then take my Golden Gryphons out of the Dark Forest. I won't set foot in this area ever again!"
The Angel of Death said in a low voice, "Cunning heretic, in your soul, I can see your hatred for my Lord! When you return, you will become our Lord's enemy!"
"This heretic is unforgivable!" Auriel flew over. Holding the Holy Sword in her hand, she slashed at Gary without hesitation. He died on the spot. He did not even understand how the thoughts in his heart were read by that angel. Could it be that angels could spy on people's inner thoughts?
