Chapter 416: Chapter 360: Yale’s Ability! Piscis Austrinus!
"Is the Forest Hut just beside the shrubbery forest ahead?"
Lin Ke used a Group Far-sighted Magic.
In the distance, there was a shrubbery forest of moderate size.
This area is in the northwest of Faser; further northwest are mountains, with little moisture, which is why the shrubs are so short here.
However, around the shrubs, there was no one — just some small grass swaying in the wind.
"No one?"
Lin Ke squinted his eyes and raised his hand, pointing remotely in that direction.
Skill — Scattering!
Optical Scattering!
In his perception, the light was telling him that there were people there!
Under optics, unless it’s dark, there’s always perception!
So, the Scholar power within Lin Ke boiled, and Skill Zero continuously absorbed heat into his body, then released it in that direction.
"Whooo!!!"
A gust of strong hot wind blew through, and the few blades of grass quickly withered and yellowed under this heat wind.
Simultaneously, a force of obstruction appeared.
Accompanied by that obstructing force, a dark crowd of people appeared before Lin Ke.
Faser People!
"Trying to use cannon fodder to wear us down?" Lin Ke raised an eyebrow.
These Faser People looked like ordinary people, each devoid of any power, dusty like walking corpses.
"Lin Ke, that’s the Forest Hut’s power!" Rica came forward to inform Lin Ke of the situation across.
Immediately, Lin Ke saw a few Deer-men over there.
"Is that the Forest Hut, from your bloodline source?" Lin Ke was curious, "Do they still hold a grudge against you?"
"Perhaps." Rica was indifferent, "What they owed my mom, they returned to her. After all, my mom gave me the rules, and they ended up begrudging me."
Rica’s bloodline came from the Forest Hut, having its own twists and turns, but that was the previous generation’s tale.
Simply put, the Forest Hut is one of the factions in the Extreme West Countries, assembled by some nature-loving races.
There are quite a few legends, probably around ten, considered a rather strong force within the Extreme West Countries.
Nearly all of the Radiant level from the Forest Hut came here this time.
"What do we do with these people, kill them all?" Lin Ke looked at Rica.
He wasn’t referring to the Faser People but those from the Forest Hut.
"Kill them." Rica was indifferent, "Those truly aligned with the path of nature won’t come in."
"Alright." Lin Ke nodded slightly and then raised the Thunder Arm Strength Ball in his hand high, accompanied by lava erupting forth.
No need for further words; the Great Wilderness Knight Order and their mounts surged forward with knight power.
"Yale, any suggestions?" Lin Ke pointed at the cannon fodder of Faser refugees ahead and laughed aloud.
"Young master, I’ve got it!" Yale immediately understood and answered Lin Ke.
Instantly, the Great Wilderness Knight Order moved.
Lin Ke led the charge, followed by his companions, with Knights behind them.
After John linked everyone together, Yale threw a chessboard into the air, with dazzling light in his eyes.
He uttered three words: "Pisces Formation!"
Suddenly, black and white chess pieces fell above each person’s head, guiding and linking them.
As such, the Knights that seemed united were divided, as though transforming into fish swimming in water.
Yet each knight’s power was elusive.
"Sophie! Lamiel!" Yale shouted, "Speed and agility!"
Sophie and Lamiel immediately comprehended.
Lamiel produced a Magic Guitar, while Sophie held an opened copy of Sophie’s Score.
Two clear calls sounded.
Instantly, the charging Great Wilderness Knight Order moved even faster, their speed increasing!
Hundred miles, in a flash!
Knights crashed into the startled Faser people, yet the anticipated carnage didn’t occur.
"I... I’m not dead?"
"What’s happening?!"
The Faser refugees were incredulous, one after another.
Meanwhile, the Great Wilderness Knight Order was passing through the unsuspecting refugees, charging towards those overseeing Deer-men.
Lin Ke charged ahead towards the central position of the Deer-men.
Catch the king first to capture the bandits!
Yale stayed back, with White Light continuously flowing from his eyes.
He monitored the battlefield!
When someone encountered the Deer-men, he poured power into that Knight, allowing them to overpower the Deer-men and rapidly gain victory.
The battle quickly turned favorable despite just starting.
However, the average level of the Great Wilderness Knight Order was below ten; despite being formidable together, the opposing party’s level was above fifteen.
Fortunately, if they could achieve quick victory, the impact would be minimal.
Yet, the Deer-men from the Forest Hut were not going down without a fight.
"Natural Domain," came the cold voice of the Deer Maiden Saintess from the center.
She shot a green arrow into the sky, transforming into gusts of green wind mid-flight.
The winds spread almost instantly across the surroundings.
The Gobi ground sprouted flowers and grass under the wind.
These flowers and grass grew rapidly, initially appearing as mere plants but exhibiting wild growth soon after.
The plants sought humans to grow upon, transforming into bloodthirsty vegetation that enveloped the Faser refugees.
Many refugees were drained completely without having time to scream.
The endless stream of Faser refugees fell, becoming nutrients for the Deer Maiden Saintess.
Moreover, the vegetation sought out and attacked the Great Wilderness Knight Order.
Fortunately, the Great Wilderness Knight Order was shielded by the blessing of Faser Gods, suffering minimal effects.
"What a troublesome figure, Rica, that doe seems more sinister than you?" Lin Ke frowned, "Can you restrain her?"
Though he wouldn’t pity those refugees in battle—compassion doesn’t command armies—each was still a life, and seemingly even boosting the doe.
"That one is Radiant level!" Rica rolled her eyes at Lin Ke, biting her lip, "But I’ll try! Finish her quickly!"
With those words, Rica let out a sharp call, her green eyes glowing unusually.
Under the surge of her magic power, some plants ceased devouring refugees, instead attacking other vegetation.
Lin Ke swiftly charged forwards on his Lava Lion, brandishing his fist clenched around the Thunder Arm Strength Ball.
"Doe, die." Lin Ke’s inner power boiled up, bringing endless momentum and striking down.
Deer Maiden Saintess lay ahead!
Yet, at that moment, the Deer Maiden Saintess smirked coldly.
Four Deer-men beside her raised their heads high, charged ferociously at Lin Ke.
The Deer Maiden Saintess flicked away a verdant seed.
The seed touched Lin Ke’s fist, ignoring the thunder and lava power, sprouting instantly, becoming a vine that encapsulated Lin Ke.
Deliberate Ambush!
