Chapter 1297: Chapter 866: The Unending Campaign

Iron Oak Plain.

Soul Guardians have descended!

A standard five-man squad appeared on the battlefield.

They are the Soul Guardian Squad responsible for this defensive zone—Nora’s Hammer.

"First and third group! Stick with me! Target ’Crystal Shard Tyrant’!"

"Second and fourth group! Engage ’Twilight Weaver’! Don’t let it approach the defense wall!"

The squad wasn’t acting alone; they were accompanied by two more elite Night Watcher squads in action.

After regrouping, the squad’s five members split into two groups, leading different teams towards the two enemies.

A clear female voice echoed through the chaotic battlefield via the common channel.

As her words fell, two pairs of figures broke through the air like comets, carrying brilliant silver radiance, diving straight towards the two newly descended legendary void creatures.

The densely packed void creatures along the way were no match for them; a casual strike could clear a large area.

The gap between the power of Legendary and mundane realms is vast, not even at the same tier.

Not all Level Ten powerholders can cross this gap by sheer force, stalling the enemy as the former Night Watcher squads once did.

Large-scale clearing resulted in a road being forcibly formed amidst numerous void creatures.

They directly charged towards the legendary enemy.

To confront the Crystal Shard Tyrant was an individual reaching Legendary status, accompanied by a teammate and two other Night Watcher squad members.

Leading them was a human warrior clad in heavy silver rune plate armor, wielding a massive tower shield and a giant hammer flowing with holy flame.

He was the Soul Guardian—Captain of Nora’s Hammer, Level 11 "Bulwark Defender," Rein.

Three team members closely followed him.

One was armed with dual guns, spewing flames of purification, also a human, belonging to their Soul Guardian squad—Raheka.

Another raised a magic staff, instantly summoning multiple stone cages to restrict the Tyrant’s movements, a "Earth Channeling Master"; plus a "Storm Knight" wielding a thrusting sword and short-handled warhammer, surrounded by swirling tempests.

These two came from another Night Watcher squad, separated to act together with them.

The two forces clashed instantly; the battle ignited in the blink of an eye, directly colliding together.

As a legendary destructive creature, the legendary void creature was incredibly swift, launching a preemptive strike.

Rein roared deeply; the tower shield adorned with mountain relief erupted with dazzling gold light, forming a substantial wall of will, blocking the Crystal Shard Tyrant’s right arm tendril’s first wave of torrential lashings.

Boom!

A massive shockwave exploded in a ring shape, the explosive force impacting, causing nearby air and surroundings to inexplicably grow purple crystals.

This showcases the concentrated void power.

But Rein precisely contained this outward surging power around the Tyrant, instead catapulting and shattering nearby low-level void creatures.

"Fool! Your opponent is me!"

Rein’s giant hammer, carrying immense power, fiercely smashed towards the Tyrant’s city-battering-like left arm.

For a time, the two sides were entangled together.

The other split squad charged towards the Twilight Weaver.

Leading this group was an elf ranger, light-footed, wielding a slender light blade and a star-shimmering short bow.

She too was a member of Nora’s Hammer squad, one of the only two legendary powerhouses in the Soul Guardian squad, Level 11 "Dawnbreaker," Elresha.

Thus, she naturally led this squad to confront the other void creature.

The composition of the team behind her was more agile.

A "Destiny Weaver," throwing rune cards with binding and dispelling effects, belonging to their Soul Guardian squad, a professional capable of sealing magic into a carrier for quick use.

Another, incessantly scattering seeds, growing thorned vines entangled with crystal threads and releasing calming pollen, a half-elf "Nature Wordbinder," also a team member grouped together due to slightly weaker strength.

However, besides them, one temporary assistant from another squad was sent over.

An "Arcane Disruptor," palms condensed with arcane energy, continuously firing precision interruptive missiles to sever crystal thread energy streams.

Elresha didn’t take on a head-on confrontation; she dodged like a butterfly amidst the Twilight Weaver’s versatile attacks, her light blade precisely slicing at the crystal thread regions with many core nodes.

Her star-shimmering short bow, in rapid movement, shot tricky demon-breaking arrows straight at the ever-emerging and vanishing "eyes."

"Bind it! Don’t let it fully ’form’! Disrupt the energy flow!"

The Soul Guardian squad’s intention was crystal clear.

With the captain as the core, restraining the destructive close-combat monster, the Crystal Shard Tyrant, by facing it head-on and absorbing damage while confining its battle intensity within the core polluted zone.

With agile ranged and field control units, entangle the ever-changing Twilight Weaver, disrupting its spirit contamination and energy weaving ability.

Meanwhile, leverage its combat aftermath to sweep out low-level void creatures internally.

The two legendary battlefields exploded violently like massive stirring vortexes within the core polluted zone of the defense line!

The void rifts here were normal ones, and it’s the limit for each rift to spawn one legendary void creature, so no second one would emerge.
