CHAPTER 415: Miraculous Healing Speed

When the sacred knight who had injured Han Shuo saw Han Shuo turn and fly towards Lawrence, he hesitated for a moment but did not follow and attack.

Aside from Sacred Swordmaster Karel, there was also a Space Sacred Magus in the direction Han Shuo was flying. With two Sacred Rank Experts there, and Earth Sacred Magus Dempus still recovering, the Sacred Knight was clearly feeling some apprehension.

Since the Sacred Knight didn't dare to act blindly, the experts from the Church of Light, Ashburn, and Prince Charles wouldn't foolishly charge forward to their deaths. Therefore, they all watched helplessly as Han Shuo shouted malicious words before flying quickly to Lawrence's side.

By now, Lawrence's residence had been completely destroyed by the battle between the two Sacred ranked experts and the Shatter Earth spell. Collapsed buildings and devastation were all that could be seen.

The servants, workers and maids of Lawrence's residence had long since been massacred. There were now less than ten trusted aides left at Lawrence's side. On the other hand, even after the losses from the Shatter Earth spell, the enemy still had nearly four hundred experts of astonishing strength from various professions. The sounds of iron hooves could be heard approaching, as if reinforcements were still on their way.

The Earth Sacred Magus, Dempus, exhaled slightly as strands of purple specks floated out of his body. The cold aura that pierced his bones was dissipated with the purple specks.

Dempus was, after all, a Sacred Magus and was extremely skilled at manipulating mental energy. Although the invasion of the cold aura was capable of chilling and even freezing his body, once he came to his senses and used his mental energy to dispel the chill, the cold aura was clearly incapable of threatening his life.

Furthermore, when the cold aura from the Demonslayer's Edge entered his body, it was only after he had resisted it twice with magic. Only a few strands of the dense cold poison were able to enter his body. Of course, a magus of his level wouldn't be killed so easily by a few strands of cold poison.

After Dempus had dispelled the cold aura from his body, he still had some fears. Fortunately, he had reacted quickly and there were many experts guarding his side. Otherwise, if Han Shuo had had the opportunity to attack after Dempus had been affected by the cold poison, his life might truly have been lost.

Such a terrifying fighting technique! Dempus felt horrified as he looked at the distant Han Shuo, who was wounded from head to toe but still appeared malevolent as he walked towards Lawrence. He thought in his heart about the prophecy of the astrologer Grace that this person would bring prosperity to the Lancelot Empire. Could it really be true?

"Bryan, are--are you okay?" Fighting with all her might to escape from Karel's grasp, Phoebe ran tearfully to Han Shuo, her delicate hands trembling as she caressed the terrible wounds on Han Shuo's face.

"It's nothing, don't worry!" Han Shuo grinned unseemly as he comforted Phoebe, who was crying uncontrollably. He reached out to grab Phoebe's hand, which was caressing the wounds on his face, and walked over to Lawrence.

Lawrence's expression was one of concern as he hurriedly asked, "Healer, where's the Healer?"

"Dead, dead a long time ago!" the dark Grand Magus Crowley, who had sworn allegiance to Lawrence, sighed softly and then took out a medicine bottle and handed it to Han Shuo as he said, "Quickly apply this to your wounds!"

"Elder Brother!" The old assassin Bollands, who had been watching Han Shuo the whole time, called out quietly.

Bollands was no longer young and had seen all sorts of situations as an assassin. He didn't deliberately express his concern in front of Han Shuo, but the killing intent on his body became even stronger, obviously not directed at the people at Han Shuo's side.

"I'm fine!" Han Shuo smiled as he refused. However, when his smile appeared on that terrifying face, it didn't make the people feel reassured. To put it mildly, Phoebe started to cry bitterly again.

"I'm really fine, my wounds have stopped bleeding. The Martial Technique I practise is very special. These injuries may look extremely serious, but they don't have any significant effect on me." When Han Shuo saw everyone anxiously trying to apply medicine to his body, he couldn't help but explain once again.

Hearing Han Shuo's explanation, everyone couldn't help but be filled with doubt as they seriously evaluated Han Shuo. Everyone's expression suddenly changed.

The wounds that had covered Han Shuo's entire body had previously been finger-sized and dripping with blood. All of the blood had now congealed like ice. The scarlet injured muscle fibres began to wiggle like worms, and the originally finger-sized wounds actually shrank by a fold.

Sacred Swordmaster Karel, who had been calm, doubted his eyes and unconsciously closed his eyes before opening them again, his eyes shining as he gazed at the wounds on Han Shuo's body.

He really has shrunk by a fold!

Karel was moved, his torch-like eyes clearly seeing that Han Shuo's wounds were about the size of a little finger and oozing with scarlet blood. However, not only did the bleeding stop, the wounds were only the size of chopsticks.

Han Shuo had charged out of the ground, sent that strange undead creature back to the underworld, and then flew towards them. All this took two minutes at the most!

Two minutes was roughly the amount of time it took to become enchanted. Such an outrageous change in such a short time, Karel couldn't help but be indescribably shocked!

Bolland's expression was burning hot, his eyes shining as he stared at the changes in a wound on Han Shuo's abdomen. This wound near Han Shuo's demon infant was currently only the width of a toothpick, a far cry from the terrifying sight it was at the beginning.

Demonic Arts! This is the power of demonic arts! Bollands shouted in his heart. He, who was on the verge of cultivating secret demonic arts, felt his heartbeat suddenly increase at that moment. The excitement in his heart could no longer be contained.

"Alright, don't worry about me, I'll recover soon. Right now, we should rather think about how to prevent these people from attacking and fight for enough time for Mister Sabakas!" Han Shuo turned his head to look at the restless enemies and said calmly.

With Han Shuo's reminder, everyone discovered the anomalies in his body. Hearing him speak with his usual calm expression, they suddenly realised the unfavourable situation and looked at the enemy. They suddenly realised that the Sacred Knight and the Earth Sacred Magus Dempus were charging at them recklessly.

Space Sacred Magus Sabakas was the only one who didn't turn to look at Han Shuo. At that moment, he was holding a pointed magical staff and carving an intricate space magic field into the smooth rock surface.

The three metre long magic field had an irregular diamond shape. With each stroke of Sabaka's magic staff, a narrow line would appear, and strands of elemental energy would flow through the sharp tip of the magic staff and into each line of the magical field.

The focused Sabakas was completely absorbed. In his eyes, there was nothing but the magical array beneath his feet. He had simply ignored all other activity, as if he wouldn't even raise his eyebrows if the sky fell and the earth gave way.

As the Sacred Magus of Space, no one could stop him if Sabakas wanted to leave on his own. If Sabakas wanted, he could even take a few people with him. Unfortunately, there were too many important people here. Even Sabakas could not act without considering the lives of others, so he could only use a magical transportation matrix.

The Sacred Knight and the Earth Sacred Magus who rushed over were clearly trying to prevent Sabakas from completing his magical matrix. With their superior numbers, they planned to get rid of everyone here once and for all, so as not to leave endless trouble behind.

As Dempus flew over, another magical staff actually appeared in his hand as he began to recite a long magic spell once again. His eyes were fixed on Han Shuo, as if Han Shuo was his greatest enemy.

"Watch out, we definitely can't let anyone disturb Sabakas!" the Sacred Swordmaster Karel instructed hastily, his astonishment directed at Han Shuo.

The strongest person in a team was usually the leader. . Karel's words caused everyone around Lawrence to focus their attention, immediately moving into a square formation with Sabakas in the middle, trying to give Sabakas enough time.

"Let's go!" As everyone prepared to fight for Sabakas' time, Sabakas, who had been concentrating on using the Space Magical Matrix, suddenly shouted.

Everyone's expressions relaxed as Lawrence and the weakest took the lead in standing in the magical transportation matrix under Sabakas' orders.

"Don't let them get away!" the Sacred knight shouted as he charged over.

"Meteor shower!" Dempus, who had been constantly chanting earth magic, finished his current incantation. A rumbling sound suddenly appeared above everyone as several hundred meteorites suddenly crashed down.

It was obvious what such a concentrated meteor shower could do when it fell on such a small area.

The skeleton staff suddenly appeared in Han Shuo's hand as numerous bone spears flew into the sky like a rain of arrows. A beautiful white bone shield blossomed in malevolent beauty as it covered everyone's heads.

Several mages simultaneously cast defensive spells. The Sacred Swordmaster Karel held his longsword in his hand as he coolly watched above, ready to block the oncoming attack at any moment.

Zhi, zhi... As the meteors rumbled down, a strange sound could be heard in the sky.

Han Shuo looked up and realised that the sky had suddenly split open to form a black hole, like a demon opening its giant mouth, similar to tearing a black sack in the sky. As the mighty meteor shower was swallowed bit by bit by the giant black hole, Han Shuo's defences simply remained untouched.

"Alright, it's your turn!" Space Sacred Magus Sabakas pointed to the magical field in front of him and said to the remaining Han Shuo, Karel, Crowley and Phoebe. He had a calm expression, without the slightest nervousness in the face of danger, which was truly surprising!

Han Shuo stared blankly as he looked at the Space Sacred Magus Sabakas in amazement. The current Sabakas did not have his usual amiable smile on his face, his concentrated expression gave off a feeling of solemnity. The previous black hole that had swallowed the meteor shower had indeed been cast by this old man.

However, Han Shuo didn't hear Sabaka chanting any spells. This caused Han Shuo to be astonished, and he also realised that Sabakas was already able to cast magic silently. It seemed that even though they were both Sacred Magus, Sabakas' understanding of the essence of magic should be higher than Dempus'.

"Let's go!" While Han Shuo was dazed, Phoebe grabbed him and pulled him forcefully into Sabakas' transportation matrix.

Before Han Shuo could react, Sabakas had already activated the magical matrix. A beam of white light suddenly shone out as Han Shuo and the others disappeared.

Only Space Sacred Magus Sabakas was left in the entire area. The sharp end of his magical staff pierced downward, causing the magic array he had activated to shatter and no longer resembles his original appearance.

"Dempus, I didn't expect someone from your realm to actually act against the future of the Lancelot Empire. As your friend of many years, I feel sorry for you!" After Sabakas destroyed the space magic matrix, he sighed as he looked at Dempus before him.

"I don't believe in vague prophecies. To let this illegitimate child become king of the Lancelot Empire is simply an absurd blasphemy. Apart from myself, many nobles in the Empire would not allow such a thing.

I've no choice but to act as I have, for the sake of the Empire's future. You are the ones who are stubborn. You shouldn't believe the words of a foolish astrologer and stake the future of the kingdom on a heresy. He is an evil disciple of the Church of Calamity. Why should he bring prosperity to Lancelot's kingdom in the future?" Dempus righteously rebuked Sabakas, clearly not one to believe in destiny.

"Mister Sabakas, I have great respect for your character and have heard many stories about you. However, I must say that even if you were to save Lawrence and the others, you would not be able to change their fate. Currently, the entire city of Ossen is under the control of Duke Ashburn and the elder Prince Charles. Lawrence and the others will not be able to escape in the end," the Sacred Knight laughed out loud as he said to Sabakas.

"That is not necessarily the case!" Sabakas calmly looked at the Sacred Knight and said, "There's at least one region you won't be able to control so easily!

The Dark Mantle's headquarters was more heavily defended than the royal palace. Even though they had captured the royal palace, the Dark Mantle Headquarters would not be easy to conquer. As the Chief Elder of the Dark Mantle, Sabakas was the one who had arranged the defences at Mt. Ordas. He was well aware of Mount Ordas' formidable defences.

"There's no denying that the Dark Mantle's headquarters is indeed difficult to attack from the outside!" the Sacred knight said with a serious expression on his face. Soon after, he smiled again as he said, "However, if there is disorder within, the situation would be completely different!

Space Sacred Magus Sabaka's expression changed when he heard the sacred Knight's words. He no longer spoke any unnecessary words to them, but hurriedly waved his staff and disappeared with a beam of light.
