《Night Ranger》Chapter 700. Counter Storm
Advertisement
No one here had expected the situation to reach such a stage!
The originally solid and united group fighting for Feinan suddenly had such intense internal strife.
When Marvin was at its weakest, it was none other than Eve who stood up and aimed her Holy Swords at him.
She claimed he was someone called "the Destroyer".
Although most people there couldn't understand what it meant, there was no mistake about it: the Valkyrie and the Fate Sorceress were fighting.
The eyes of the Divine Servants from the Astral Sea shone!
They regained some of their hope.
The son of Anuba Grant was quite incredible. Without Eve restraining him with her Holy Swords, he would be the most powerful contender for the Fate Tablet.
On the top floor of the Sky Tower, everyone watched as he held off Ivan and the Sea Elven Queen, apparently effortlessly.
With his carefree appearance, he was probably not even going all-out!
Then again, he had just agreed to help Eve with one thing and not necessarily do anything too drastic.
Seeing this, most of the Divine Servants drew similar conclusions.
The son of the God of Dawn and Protection was definitely waiting for an opportunity to make a decisive move.
With Marvin crippled, it might be difficult for the Copper Dragon to protect him on his own!
The battle between Jessica and Eve might have just started, but it was already full-blown!
The seven-colored Fate Power was clashing with the Holy Swords as Jessica herself was in a fierce melee with Eve.
The strength of the two of them had reached a very frightening stage.
Eve wanted to press closer to Marvin.
But Jessica wouldn't allow her to.
Their fight was very rough and simple, almost like a brawl!
Still, many were terrified when they saw the extent of their power!
Whether it was the Valkyrie's Holy Swords or Jessica's fists, if they were the ones receiving those, they wouldn't be able to handle it!

This was the power of the ones chosen by the Plane Will.
Unfortunately, although Jessica gave her utmost, she was still unable to take Eve down.
So while they were occupied, the restless stragglers finally made a move.
Given that there was only one left guarding Marvin, they glanced at each other and tacitly decided to make a move!
In an instant, Professor faced the attacks of more than 40 Legends!
Endless Divine Power fell down from the sky, along with sword shadows and sneak attacks hidden between the cracks.
The goal of these people was very simple: killing Marvin!
The Copper Dragon angrily raised his wings, and a dark red storm was suddenly whipped up in the area around his body!
The storm frantically whirled around him and deflected most of the Divine Spells and offensive attacks!
The entire top floor of the Sky Tower fell into chaos.
A startled shout came out from someone who got struck by his own spell bouncing back!
[Counter Storm]!
A fierce Dragon Spell.
But the consumption of stamina and Magic Power was very high, too.
The dark red storm persisted for about another minute before stopping.
The Copper Dragon, who had just used a lot of energy when he spat out the Lava Breath earlier, seemed a bit smaller now.
His eyes became even less lively.
And there was also a fresh wound at the base of his wing!
Counter Storm couldn't stop everything.
He panted, continuing to shield the Devil Magic Egg under his stomach.
The large Dragon's eyes carefully watched the rest as he roared with a thunderous voice, "Don't even think of killing Marvin today!"
"I might not be able to kill all of you, but I'll definitely not show any mercy to anyone that dares to attack!"
The Copper Dragon was utterly enraged.
Professor had always had a calm and gentle personality. He liked Humans, he liked to interact with them.
And among these Humans, he had always believed that Marvin was worth trusting.

Ever since he took the initiative to train in the Mirror World, and also in the later trip to the Dragon Temple, everything proved that.
This youth had the heart of a hero.
There was no doubt about this.
Professor was at ease knowing the Fate Tablet was in Marvin's hands.
Today's events had been going so well.
Relying on his remarkable abilities, Marvin had successfully grasped the Fate Tablet.
And with Feinan's group being so formidable, forming an alliance to hold off the outsiders wouldn't be an issue.
This all would have set up a good foundation for getting ready to deal with what would happen a month hence.
But the falling out with Eve destroyed everything.
Professor had a good relationship with Eve, and he knew she wasn't greedy.
As the inheritor of the will of the Valkyrie, Eve had very firm willpower, and she also took it upon herself to be one of the heroes that would guard Feinan from any threats.
The only thing that would be able to make her change her mind would be something related to the Valkyrie's will.
A flicker of doubt appeared in the Copper Dragon's angry eyes. The Valkyrie had left for so many years, and despite the matter of the Destroyer being in the minds of these long-lived lifeforms, it had never manifested. Now, Eve concluded that Marvin was the Destroyer, which must have had something to do with what the Valkyrie had known. But even if the Valkyrie was outstandingly powerful, could she really see what would happen after so many years?
Marvin was the one chosen by Lance, after all.
This was something Professor learnt after communicating with the Water Elemental Sovereign. After Butterfly awakened, his strength took a great leap forward, and because of this, he gained access to the world's biggest secret.
The game between Lance and Feinan's Plane Will.
Could it be that Lance really wanted to destroy this world?
And that Marvin was the one he had chosen to do it?
Only this conclusion could explain Eve's actions.
But the Copper Dragon didn't have time to think all this through.
Counter Storm hadn't bought him much time.
The enemies would take this opportunity to swarm around once more.
Although the Divine Spells weren't powerful, there were a lot of them.
At this time, Professor regretted that Kangen had left to settle things outside.
With the strength of the Blade Master, there would be no issue holding off and perhaps slaughtering these Divine Servants.
But it was normal for that old friend to not want to stay in this sacred location for Wizards.
There was still that matter gnawing at his mind, after all.
Professor's gaze became resolute.
Regardless of whether Marvin was the Destroyer, the Fate Tablet couldn't end up in the hands of these people.
Whether it was Feinan's other Legends, or the Divine Servants, or the other forces of the Universe.
If the Fate Tablet landed in their hands, it would lead to another round of terror and destruction.
The owner of the Tablet would turn into a New God, and probably become like them too.
When that time came, the fate of everyone else in Feinan would be decided.
The Era of Gods would be unstoppable then.
Professor didn't like this, so he resolved himself to use a sacrificial taboo spell to stop all this.
But at that time, something under his belly stirred restlessly.
He subconsciously used his wings to brush aside those few scattered Divine Spells that were still falling down.
Everyone was abruptly shocked when they saw the Devil Magic Egg transform.
Four limbs, followed by a head, and ultimately, a complete Human shape appeared.
Marvin raised his head and both reached at his waist, drawing Sodom's Blades, which let out a thick killing intent.
The corner of his mouth was raised in a devilish smile:
"You want to kill me?"

REND
In an alternate reality Earth, where a mysterious organization of superhumans fights eldritch horrors taking over people's minds, Erind Hartwell, a first-year law student with psychopathic tendencies and obsessive compulsion to follow an inexplicably arbitrary set of Rules, seemed normal in comparison. And that is what she is going for. Society frowned on different—especially her kind of different. Rule #4, "I wouldn’t bother the world as long as it didn't bother me." Unfortunately, the world bothered Erind's normal life. On the brink of death, an entity came offering powers to save her. Left with no other choice, she accepted it, changing into a new form—the first of many that'll help her survive this dangerous world.
