Celestial Era: The Rise of the Full-Time Enhancer

Chapter 121 Rescue ( 1 )



Vincent looked at the hill where Lesley\'s group is currently at.

Of course, he doesn\'t know exactly where Lesley was since he\'s clueless about her appearance. However, he was familiar with Joran\'s mana fluctuation by now.

He was able to tell that Joran can overpower the elites of the Zemin Clan who were already exhausted in battle.

"Lesley! Hold on!"

Lady Yulia shouted with a powerful and threatening voice. There was some kind of Mana Art included from that shout which could intimidate people. However, Joran didn\'t budge at this at all as he grabbed a person in his hands.

"No!"

"Shit! Who is that guy?! I will kill him!" Romain\'s eyes were bloodshot as he saw what Joran just did.

​ At this point, Vincent can already tell that the one that got captured was actually Lesley. However, it probably wasn\'t easy for Joran as well.

Currently, there are only 5 or so remaining rebels behind him while there were still over 10 people from Zemin Clan that were only pushed aside.

Corpses littered everywhere and Vincent can\'t find traces of the Adept Mage and the Arch Knights who were supposedly protecting Lesley.

\'He\'s injured… But we can\'t be too hasty since he captured Lesley…\' Vincent thought as he followed behind Yulia\'s group.

He also started looking around to find someone. Sure enough, he found three figures wearing cloaks to cover their faces.

They were definitely Celestial Beings. Since none of them here has a Celestial, they weren\'t ordered to attack as they remained on standby. That is certainly good news but Vincent still couldn\'t help but worry.

"Hmph! Stay where you are or I\'ll kill this woman. I know that she has a bright future ahead and you were calling her a genius of her generation. I\'m sure you don\'t want her journey to end here." Joran smiled as he looked down on Yulia\'s group.

It was at this moment that everyone finally recognized him, Joran Troy!

"Hmph! I don\'t care about her… Die!"

Surprisingly, someone didn\'t care about Lesley\'s life! Florent from the Jung Clan actually dashed forward to kill the weakened Joran!

"What?! Stop! Ugh… Control!"

Lady Yulia was surprised by Florent\'s actions but she quickly recovered and used her Mystic Eye\'s ability to hold Florent in place. However, she hastily cast the ability so it was obviously weaker.

Vincent looked at the shaky chains made of dark elements as they barely held Florent in place. However, it\'s enough for the others to surround him after it dissipated.

"What\'s the meaning of this Florent?! Can\'t you see that our young miss is in his hands?!"

"What?! We have no time for that! The people of my clan are still waiting! You can\'t just surrender if he told you, no?" Florent said and it was indeed correct. They can\'t sacrifice their lives for that single woman.

"Hmph! I won\'t be asking for your surrender. I just need to leave this place as I already bought enough time. Sir France shouldn\'t complain anymore about my activities… Keke..."

Joran grinned as he revealed his intention. It appears that he was just ordered by the Grand Knight to buy time here.

\'Hmm? Is that my enhanced potions?\' Vincent mused as he got closer to the hill.

Apparently, the hill is littered with potion bottles as well and some of them appear to be the ones he enhanced to cure the barbarian poison.

\'Does it mean that Joran was the Barbarian Poison User? Wait… No… They probably only had time to use those potions after arriving here only to get attacked by Joran\'s team after.\'

Vincent tried to analyze the traces of battle. This is something he learned in the jungle since he needed to find out what kind of enemy is ahead.

If Joran is a poison user on top of being a great magician, it would indeed be difficult to get closer to him unless they have the Poison Immunity Talisman like him.

Vincent continued looking around and as soon as he confirmed that there are no other threats asides from Joran, he closed his eyes and took a deep breath…

As soon as he opened his eyes, he silently activated his Shrouded Steps… There is one thing that he noticed after his core has mutated, it was his energy fluctuations that had become extremely subtle.

Previously, each activation of his Mana Art can be felt by someone stronger than him. However, with his Pseudo Celestial Energy powering him up, it had completely changed and this is something that he noticed during his previous battles.

The only concern that he has were the three Celestial Beings who have been silently observing the battlefield.

This is why he had to take a cover behind the horse before he activated the Mana Art.

"Leave her alone and we\'ll let you go…" Lady Yulia said to Joran as soon as she confirmed that Florent and his team were successfully blocked by Romain and the others.

Joran sneered at this.

"Ha! I will take her with me… Give me at least a kilometer with her and I\'ll leave her after." Joran said as he looked in the direction where he was about to go. The eastern plains are just ahead of them and once he got there, he should no longer worry about his safety.

Of course, there is also the fact that there were three Celestial Beings who can keep him safe but he needs to be wary of Yulia\'s Darkness Mystic Eye.

He heard many rumors about this Mystic Eye and it was considered to be one of the strongest Tier 4 Body Transformation Arts. Furthermore, he heard from Grand Knight France that this Mystic Eye wasn\'t something she was born with but she cultivated it to this level, a level that even Celestial Beings had to be wary of.

Although the Zemin Clan said that it was something she was born with, it was only their way to ensure that the cultivation method of this Mystic Eye would not be coveted by other people.

"A kilometer?! I will give you 200 meters! You have those Celestial Beings with you. Why are you too scared?!" Yulia shouted angrily.

"Whoa~ Don\'t you know that they can\'t be used in battle? Or do you want to utilize your Celestial Being perhaps? Then that\'s good for me… Although we\'re part of the Rebel Army, we still follow the rules. After all, once we rule this kingdom, we will still implement the same laws and orders." Joran said with a smile.

Well, this is the reason why those other small sects and organizations weren\'t too inclined to fight a bloody battle against the Rebel Army.

Even if they will send their forces to help the Royal Family, they will still preserve their main or elite forces and wait for the indisputable King to emerge.

"Hmph! Three hundred meters! That should be enough! And don\'t hurt her! If you do, the whole Zemin Clan would be after you."

"Hahaha! I like that threat! Haven\'t you heard what happened to the Lucius Clan?" Joran laughed vigorously as he appears to have recalled something funny.

This person can truly get to someone\'s nerves as Lady Yulia was starting to lose her patience. Furthermore, Florent and his team also decided to just ignore this situation and found a different path to continue their search for their fellow clan members.

Their group was previously planning to ask the other five or so survivors of the Zemin Clan about the place where the Jung Clan\'s elites went into...

However, they decided to just give up seeing how the situation with Joran and them is getting tense every second passed.

They might get implicated if this continues.

"Hmph! What a waste of time… I hope they all just die…" Florent was annoyed at the fact that he was unable to get out of Yulia\'s bindings easily even if it was hastily activated.

In addition, he also wanted to kill Joran since one of their clan\'s trade business was destroyed by him. If not for his missing clansmen, he wouldn\'t let him get away easily.

Anyway, Joran liked this development as he no longer has to worry about Florent\'s skill. That person is at the peak of the Arch Knights after all.

"I will move now… Do not follow me! I agree with the 300 meters." Joran said as he started moving back.

However, Lesley finally found some energy as she struggled and shouted.

"No! This guy is planning to break his words! Do not listen to him! Kill him now even if costs me my life!"

Lesley was determined. Before Lady Yulia and the other elders arrived here, she saw how he killed the two Arch Knights who has been protecting her all this time. Her Uncle was also defeated and lost an arm from him.

She\'s unsure whether he was still alive or not right now.

"You! Just shut your mouth or I\'ll cut your tongue!"

"He\'s already weak! Hurry!"

Lesley didn\'t listen. This is the best opportunity to kill Joran, one of the most wanted people by the Royal Family. It would be such a waste if they let him go!

There is no telling when could they find such an opportunity again! But, the elders of the Zemin Clan have a different thought about this.

\'It\'s too dangerous!\'

Lady Yulia and Romain were apprehensive about this. If they failed to kill Joran immediately, Lesley would surely die in his hands!

They couldn\'t take the risk!

In the meantime, however, a shadowy figure started getting closer to Joran.

\'Good job disrupting him, Miss Lesley. I\'m coming…\'
