Affinity: Chaos

Chapter 120 - The Protectors

"Hmph! How dare an insect like you try to get the Great Earth Essence Liquid first before measuring your capabilities"

A young man snorted coldly. A youth in blue clothing emerged from the crowd. He was a genius from the Royal family of the Blue Wind empire and was also one of the few people in the Third stage of the Origin Plane that was present here.

From his previous attack, everyone was able to discern that he was a Lightning Elementalist. His strength sent chills down people's spine. The strength of this young man jolted those who were not strong enough but were ready to rush towards the pond back to reality. Most of them showed disappointment in their eyes. After that, they began to shake their heads before sighing.

Although they didn't want to admit it, they knew it in their hearts that the Great Earth Essence Liquid was no longer related to them. It was something they could never touch.

"Do we have to make a move?", Reynolds asked while staring at the pond.

"Be patient. This isn't as easy as it seems", replied Grey.

According to the style of the expert, and his experience when he wanted to obtain the blue flame, he knew there was no way they would be able to acquire this treasure easily. Compared to what he faced in the volcano, the dangers in the ancient paths were a walk in the park for him.

And the reason for that was because according to the expert, the blue flame and lotus were his greatest treasure.

While he was still thinking about what the possible obstacles they would face could be, he sensed a gaze, turning his head in the direction he felt the gaze coming from. About two hundred meters away from their group, he saw a youth staring at them with eyes filled with unconcealed killing intent.

Other than the Darkness Elementalist, who else would look at the group with such killing intent?

After the Darkness Elementalist charged through the passageway, he moved a couple of meters before spotting the group he came here with. He went over to join them.

The reason he was still among the crowd and hadn't stepped forward to try to obtain the Great Earth Essence Liquid was that he was still feeling irritated from his previous battle with Grey, and also because no one had dared to obtain it.

When he saw the first person who ran forward, he sneered in contempt after noticing his strength. He was about to make a move when the youth from the Blue Wind empire made a move. Just as he was looking around, he caught sight of a familiar figure that has been engraved in his head even though their contact wasn't long.

When he saw the people he was grouped with, a look of incredulity appeared on his face.

'How can they be friends?', the Darkness Elementalist howled internally.

The four people he hated the most in his life were unexpectedly friends. Had it been that only the first trio he encountered were friends, it wouldn't have been as shocking as four of them being friends.

His confidence was first shattered by Alice, then, he was almost killed by Klaus and Reynolds joint assault, then, he encountered the monster known as Grey.

These were the first people among his generation he had ever felt inferior to. What was worse was that he was not only a Multi Elementalist, not only was his stage higher than theirs, but he also had the rare darkness element to boot.

Yet, he felt inferior to a Dual Elementalist who was a stage below him, A Water Elementalist who was also a stage below, A Lightning Elementalist who was two stages below him and was a high-grade summoner, and lastly, an innocent-looking Fire Elementalist who was two stages below him, had blue flames instead of red and had terrifying physical strength.

He started trembling unconsciously because of anger. Unrestrained rage and killing intent were visible in his eyes. But surprisingly, rage and killing intent wasn't the only thing visible in his eyes, a slight trace of fear appeared without him knowing.

When Grey made eye contact with him, he felt the other party's fighting intent. He unconsciously prepared himself to attack. Just as he was about to make the first move...

"Are you okay?"

A voice brought him out of his enraged state. Hearing the voice, he calmed himself and shifted his gaze from Grey and his group.

"I'm fine. We should focus on getting the Great Earth Essence Liquid, for now", he replied coldly.

The person who spoke previously was one of the youths in his group. When the youth saw the Darkness Elementalist almost losing himself to anger, he was stunned. He had known him for a long time and knew how calm he was. This was the first time he had seen him like this.

.............

"What's up?", Klaus nudged Grey with his shoulder when he realized he wasn't paying attention.

"Our target", Grey used his head to point Klaus in the Darkness Elementalist's direction.

Following the direction Grey showed him, he saw the Darkness Elementalist with his group.

"Hmph! He won't leave this place alive", he snorted coldly.

"That's not going to be easy though, you should be aware of the stages of his companions", said Grey.

'Hmm", Klaus nodded.

If they ganged up on the Darkness Elementalist alone, then the chances of killing him were quite high. But since he was with his group, if they attacked him now, there was a possibility the other parties might reverse the situation.

Including the Darkness Elementalist, their group contained four other Second stage Origin Plane Elementalist. In Grey's group, the one with the highest stage was Alice and Klaus who were each in the Second stage.

Although they had no problem with facing them one on one, they were one man short, so the other group not only had the advantage in terms of cultivation stage, they also had the advantage in numbers.

..........

After a man has been killed, it created a great deterrent force. The genius from the Blue Wind empire wore a smile on his face. He sent out a palm strike at the pond. Just as the enormous lightning palm was about to touch the pond, a ray of light shone from outside the pond, then a large fire palm materialized and collided with the genius's palm.

Bang!

The power was ancient and extremely strong.

Shuuu!

Fiery red lights began to rush out around the pond. One by one, each light rapidly materialized and turned into nine warriors that were completely made out of fire.

"Elemental Warriors!", A youth in the crowd yelled out

Seeing the nine warriors appear out of thin air, everyone gasped in shock. When they all sensed the stages of the Elemental Warriors, they were all sent into an uproar.

"They are all in the Fifth stage in the Origin Plane", the genius from the Blue Wind empire furrowed his brow.

This was getting harder and harder.

..........

When Grey saw the Elemental Warriors appear, he wasn't too surprised.

"Hmm, sure enough, it isn't as simple. Let's wait and see", he said.

The nine Elemental Warriors had always been hiding in the pond. They would only emerge if someone tried to touch the pond. Grey had expected an obstacle, so he was incomparably calm.

"They seem to be protecting the pond", said Reynolds.

The others nodded to what he said. Getting past these nine Elemental Warriors wouldn't be easy, from the positions they took, it was easy for them to help each other out.

.............

The sudden appearance of the protectors immediately set off a wave of commotion. Most of them were astounded. The means of the old expert was certainly unimaginable. Fortunately, the Elemental Warriors just stood close to the pond.

Their duty was to guard the pond and the ancient temple. They would never take the initiative to attack, so, as long as one didn't go near the pond, one wouldn't be attacked by them.

"Let me see how powerful these Elemental Warriors are", the Darkness Elementalist walked out.

When the crowd saw the Darkness Elementalist step out, they all waited curiously for the result of his test.

He steadied himself and blasted out two attacks simultaneously, one was his darkness element and the other was his lightning element.

The Elemental Warriors easily dispersed his attack and forced him back by three steps. His expression began to change.

"So powerful! Each of them possesses strength slightly greater than my own, and they could join forces with one another during the most critical moment. It's almost impossible to get past them and obtain the Great Earth Essence Liquid inside", he said.

The circ.u.mstance was already clear for all to see, the only way for them to obtain the Great Earth Essence Liquid is to get rid of these protectors!
