Chapter 388 Result

Vincent laughed as he can understand the man's confusion.

His Soul-Forged Ironbark Cane isn't just durable… Its Crush Attributes also makes it destructive…

He didn't even have to put too much strength on his strikes and this attribute will do its magic. The only reason why Vincent needed to put enough force behind his strike was to ensure that Brycen wouldn't push the cane on him and suffer from the crush attribute instead…

"Is that all, Mr. Intruder?" Vincent taunted while looking at Bryce with a sneer on his face.

The latter was checking his knuckles and although there is no visible injuries or cracks on his black iron skin, he can feel the pain from it… He wasn't exactly sure how many more clashes he could last but he knows that he can't continue with this method.

For some reason, his Tier 5 Beast Demon Body wasn't too effective against that wooden cane. It was as if the cane was some kind of a blessed item.

"Hmph! Don't think that you've already won… I haven't started yet…" Brycen said as he annoyingly glanced at the Artillery Guns mounted on the wall.

Apparently, he felt that they were about to fire again…

His prediction was correct as Caesus ordered another bombardment… This time, they used a different artillery shell. This shell is no longer meant for Magic Beasts.

They used an Artillery Shell meant to kill Barbarians!

Vincent prepared this in case the Totemic Barbarians decided to attack his village. However, seeing that Brycen became incredibly strong, Vincent was reminded of the Totemic Barbarians and secretly ordered Caesus to change the shells.

Of course, Brycen was unaware of this so he didn't think too much of it…

Only when he noticed Vincent's sinister smile did he feel something off.

"Hmmm?"

However, it was already too late, the shells that he smashed with his materialization of raw mana didn't explode and disappeared midair…

Instead, it created a sticky bomb that welcomed Brycen and because of the short distance, he was unable to react in time and was covered by this sticky bomb…

"What? Do you think this can stop me?" Brycen was confused but when he tried using Flame Body, a Tier 3 Mana Art, he realized that it was actually ineffective. He remained stuck on the ground, half-kneeling!

He then used Mana Discharge to dissolve the sticky liquid attached to him but even with that, it barely did anything to help him. He probably needed to do it more than 50 times to completely remove this adhesive liquid from him.

He is not taking any damage from it but he can no longer dodge any attacks because of this…

"Hey, young man… Do you think that I'll be defeated with just this? Even if I sit here all day long, I won't be injured by your Mana Bullets. If you got closer to me, I can also crush you with my Mana Pressure…"

Brycen said with confidence. After activating his Tier 5 technique, he had limited his magic abilities in exchange for an incredibly tough body. However, this body could ignore most of the known Mana Arts so he wasn't too worried about being bombarded by Tier 3 Elemental Mana Arts even less from a Tier 2 Mana Bullet.

Although his Mana Field can only affect around ten meters in radius, once Vincent entered that range, he's confident that he will be able to win. This time, he won't force himself to grab Vincent anymore and just deal with him by suffocating him with his Mana.

"I won't get near you then…" Vincent playfully said as he glanced at Shane.

After confirming that the man wasn't too worried and not showing signs of helping his friend, Vincent continued with his plans while informing Caesus to watch Shane carefully…

Vincent then pulled out his communication crystal and started contacting Calidia who was in the Kayser Tower…

After a few seconds, everyone felt a huge amount of mana gathering at the top of the Tower…

"W-what?" Brycen, who had come from Solomon's Pillar, can recognize that that is something his body couldn't take…

Shane was also alarmed by the violent mana being gathered above the Tower.

'Did he actually learn the Black Tower's secret? How can he create this kind of powerful weapon?'

Needless to say, only the Tower Lord knows how to create the Black Tower's Great Desolation. It is the ultimate attack that the mage tower can create. Of course, this is exclusive to the Mage Tower made by the organization.

Right now, however, Shane and Brycen can feel the same threat coming from the small and somehow cute Tower that Vincent created at the center of his city.

When they first saw it, they just thought it is some sort of imitation to scare people away. However, this tower is actually a genuine Mage Tower! The two looked at each other with helpless smiles on their faces.

They can probably survive this attack if they work together and they can even continue fighting. They may also capture Vincent if they took this seriously and cast a forbidden Mana Art.

However, the battle has gone on for so long already so it should probably be the right time to give up. After a few moments, Brycen and Shane raised their hands up…

"We surrender… You did well, Vincent…" Brycen said.

Shane was about to introduce themselves but Vincent's reply stunned them.

"Thank you for helping me realize my flaws, Third Brother and Fourth Brother..."

Vincent called them brothers since Lola told him to call them that…

The two finally realized that they have been recognized by Vincent from the start and wanted to play with them as well!

No wonder they weren't being bombarded from all sides!

The group of soldiers who were also watching this realized what was going on. Since they all know that Vincent doesn't have a family anymore, they were able to tell that these third and fourth brothers were actually his senior disciples!

It means that they are also the Tower Lord's disciples!

"So it was like that… No wonder Sir Vincent didn't order the next bombardment…"

Caesus wryly smiled as he can't believe that he just tried to kill the Tower Lord's disciple… Apparently, the sticky bomb they fired had a follow-up bombardment. It is supposedly followed by a poisonous artillery shell and was meant to take advantage of the weakness of the Totemic Barbarians.

He believes that it could also kill the two Grand Magus below…

Luckily, Vincent was able to stop him in time telling him there was no need for such actions. If he really ordered his men to fire those shells, he wouldn't know how he would take responsibility…
