Celestial Era: The Rise of the Full-Time Enhancer

Chapter 488 Confrontation



Thanks to the Martial Arts of the three Paragons, they were able to hide their presence naturally even without using Magic Tools… Even their scents were completely blocked off by a body technique they possess.

"We should be careful… Our distance right now should be safe from detection but if we move further, not only those Lycans but also the Celestials will notice us." Niall, the old man who was carrying a large axe, suggested after considering their location… It was also a good thing that the wind\'s direction is in their favor.

"We\'ll observe for now… We don\'t know what\'s happening here… Perhaps this is the first Monster Outbreak? Those bipedal wolves were probably the first dungeon creatures that has gotten out of their prison…" Ariana muttered as she had never seen bipedal wolves before…

It means that they could possibly be some rare creatures that only specific dungeons can house.

"Alright… Let\'s save them if necessary… However, those Celestials were accompanied by several strong Grand Magus and Grand Knights as well. I think some of them are contractors so we can probably wait until they\'re cornered…" Colm suggested as he wasn\'t taking those bipedal wolves seriously.

In his mind, they were just larger beasts that could move faster… Even if they\'re stronger than normal Savage Beasts, he still wouldn\'t take them into his eyes. They were just a bunch of moving Beasts Cores for him… Harvesting them later shouldn\'t cause a problem…

As for why the Celestials are escaping from these Beasts, he can only think that they were already tired, or perhaps, their contractors were too afraid to fight them…

"Got it… We only need the Celestial Beings after all. If their contractors died, it should be very easy to invite the Celestials to join us." Ariana nodded in agreement as she lead the group to follow the bipedal wolves\' tracks…

***

Three more hours had passed and they realized that they weren\'t heading towards the central plains but instead, they were moving to the northern region!

"It seems that they\'re leading the beasts… They weren\'t just escaping mindlessly… Should we stop them? What do you think?" Niall asked the two Paragons beside him…

They don\'t know where this is going and how long they will escape. Furthermore, they saw a few skirmishes between the two groups… Apparently, they realized that Celestials seem to be holding back… Or perhaps, they can\'t show their real strength for some reason…

"If the Celestials are truly injured as you suggested, we might have to intervene and save them… We can just kill those bipedal wolves and their contractors altogether." Niall suggested as he was also getting tired of following this group of people.

Seeing that another skirmish will happen again, Ariana finally agreed with his teammates since if they go further, they might arrive in the vicinity of a Mage Tower and it won\'t do well for them…

"I\'ll go and stop the bipedal wolves with my weapon… You two can go and block those Grand Magus and Grand Knights… Tell them to help us eliminate the beasts." Ariana instructed the two.

Although they believe that they can eliminate all the bipedal wolves, they know that it would take some time.

Hence, if they all worked together with the Celestials\' group, it will be a lot faster and the Celestials wouldn\'t escape from their grasp.

After all, once they killed the bipedal wolves, the Mana Practitioners would certainly let their guards down and at that time, they can easily backstab them.

It is such a perfect plan so they immediately acted on it.

Ariana burst with power alarming the bipedal wolves even the Celestials ahead of them…

"Lightning Field…"

She activated her Magic Artifact and attracted the attention of the beasts…

"Hurry! I\'ll take care of them!"

Ariana declared as she looked at the bipedal wolves that were glaring at her with extreme malice.

Nevertheless, she wasn\'t afraid. She can\'t even feel any mana coming from them! It means that they were most likely relying on their physical bodies and strong vitality… For her, these types of beasts were the easiest to deal with…

"Alright! But don\'t kill them all! We need to see observe the Grand Magus and Grand Knights for a bit…" Colm reminded as he proceeded to call the group of Mana Practitioners ahead of them.

He\'s together with Niall and they were both moving faster than the beasts without any issues… Being a Paragon isn\'t an empty title after all.

As soon as he reached the Celestials\' group, he immediately explain their intention. After all, they might be misunderstood…

"We\'re only here to help… We\'re planning to kill all the Beasts… Stop escaping and let\'s fight together…"

"Don\'t worry, we will protect you as much as we can… Just assist us. My friend is already stopping the beasts as we speak… We\'re all Paragons and you can trust us!"

Colm and Niall announced with great pride.

As expected, as soon as they mentioned that they were the legendary Paragons of the Martial Arts Alliance, they heard the Mana Practitioners\' awes and grateful voices.

However, instead of stopping, they actually continued backing away as if they have no plans of assisting them…

Colm can understand that those Grand Magus would have to gain more distance but the Grand Knights shouldn\'t run away as well!

They wanted to call them up but the bipedal wolves are already coming…

Although Ariana attracted their attention, she was at the center of the pack. Her lightning field can only cover about 100 meters after all.

The other wolves that were out of her range were able to attack them still.

"Tsk… Cowards…" Niall grunted as he saw the Grand Knights backing away… He knows that Grand Knights weren\'t as tough as Aura Knights but it is still quite disappointing to see how they cower in front of these wolves that were a little bigger compared to normal ones.

He then decided to show just how easy it is to kill these bipedal wolves… He raised his battle axe and poured almost all of his strength in one slash…

He wanted to create a stunning move that will make the Mana Practitioners behind him exclaim in awe…

"Mountain Splitter!"
