Chapter 1391 The First Cardinal (2)

1391 The First Cardinal (2)

The tide of the battle changed as the knights of The Harmony Temple were pushed back. The adventurers were not crazy enough to oppose the person who killed three Cardinals and eight Apostles. The knights were slaughtered, and killed with no mercy.

Ladirma led his people as Kaiser and his Skeleton Army emerged from their spot, surrounding the knights from all directions. As the fight continued, the sky suddenly turned dark as lightning flashed beyond the dark sky.

No one noticed the strangeness but Tang Shaoyang. He could tell it was not a natural phenomenon, but someone did this. The adventurers and the knights were too busy to notice this.

Karoen soon noticed strangeness and came closer to Tang Shaoyang, "This is not natural, Master…." The Void Knight glanced to the west as he saw a long lightning flash in the sky, "Someone's coming."

As Karoen said, a figure emerged from the black cloud as the sky became clear again. The figure slowly descended, observing the battle below him. Then the figure looked toward Tang Shaoyang, "Aren't you too cruel to pit the adventurers against the knights?"

The figure's eyes moved toward Carlos who was in a sorry state. He could tell that Carlos had lost the will to fight. The only way for Carlos to be like that was that the enemy was too strong for him. That made the figure realize that he could not underestimate the enemy.

"Cruel? So it isn't cruel if The Temple hires adventurers to slaughter the people of Orin Kingdom?" Tang Shaoyang punched Carlos in the head.

Boom! Roar!

Carlos roared in pain as it was too sudden. He was not expecting Tang Shaoyang to hit him hard.

"Watch him for me, Karoen. Cut his hands as well and make sure he could not regenerate his limbs. I will entertain this interesting guest," Tang Shaoyang used Detection but yielded no result from the skill. However, he could tell that this man was stronger than those Cardinals and Apostles. Far stronger than them, meaning this man was a God Rank.

"I am expecting Rubia to come first at me, but I don't really expect The God Rank from the Adventurer Guild to come at me. Are you Hemlin or Forlan?"

The two Patron God Ranks of the Adventurer Guild were Hemlin and Forlan. That was general knowledge for the people in Aqura World. Not something the Adventurer Guild hid from the others. The Orin Kingdom, of course, knew that information which was why Tang Shaoyang knew those two names. Tisha told him those two names.

"Unfortunately, I am neither Sir Hemlin nor Sir Forlan. They are too busy to face a small fry like you," The figure replied with a grin, "So you are from The Orin Kingdom and come for us, The Temple and The Adventurer Guild? Stupid Frost. If he has someone like you, you should just hole up in your mountain, and you might survive for another decade."

"Shut up, you guys. Don't you guys hear him? He is not the God Rank from the Adventurer Guild," Tang Shaoyang did not really listen to the figure's words because his spirits were so loud in his head. Especially Avyn and Doombringer, fighting about who should fight this person. After saying that, he cut off the connection with them.

"What are you saying again? My summons are fighting for a hot item like you, so I can't really listen to you."

"You do have a little talent to provoke people. You almost make me mad," The figure glanced down. The fight below him was over with the knights from the temple being slaughtered. No one was spared. Now the adventurers realized there was another figure above them, and everyone was looking up.

Some of the adventurers recognized the new figure, "Isn't he Parmes, The First Cardinal?" The voice was not loud, but everyone could hear him.

That was right, the figure was the first Cardinal, Parmes. The top three Cardinals were different from the other Cardinals. They fought for their position, and they were the strongest among the twelve Cardinals. Someone who was stronger than Carlos, Vazha, and the Eleventh Cardinal.

However, the adventurers showed no reaction to that. In their eyes, it did not matter which numbered Cardinal came. Because they did not believe that The First Cardinal could beat someone who had killed five Apostles and two Cardinals.

Parmes was not expecting the lukewarm response from the adventurers. People would cheer for him even though they were not on the battlefield. But now he came to save them, yet they showed no enthusiasm with his appearance. It was as if they held no hope for him. That was more infuriating than Tang Shaoyang's provocation.

"Are you disappointed?" Tang Shaoyang smiled. He also heard the voice. The one in front of him was The First Cardinal. But nothing changed even when the First Cardinal came. Only The God Rank could give them hope, "Don't be so disappointed. They make the right choice."

He turned toward the adventurers, "This will be the last order! Attack him! Prove it to me that you are no longer adventurers! Don't be afraid of his retaliation. I will protect you from him!" He got a better idea. It was an unnecessary thing to do, but that would be an amusing sight to watch.

Tang Shaoyang was about to threaten these adventurers if they did not attack Parmes. To his surprise, three adventurers attacked Parmes without being threatened. Three firebirds, a lightning arrow shot, and an adventurer tried to reach The First Cardinal by flying.

The three firebirds and the lightning arrow arrived first. Parmes just swung his arm and the attack was destroyed. He then summoned lightning, intending to straighten the adventurer who tried to get close to him.

Boom!

The lightning struck down, but it failed to hurt the adventurer. Tang Shaoyang neutralized the lightning as he stood between the adventurer and the lightning.

"That's enough. You can go back," Tang Shaoyang smiled mockingly at Parmes, "How does it feel being betrayed by the people you are supposed to save?"

Parmes lost his smile the moment the three adventurers attacked him. He gazed at Tang Shaoyang with fury, "Congratulations. You have succeeded in angering me."

The First Cardinal spread out his aura as lightning struck down on him. That single strike of lightning turned his body into his elemental body, The Lightning Body. It was something he acquired after he ascended to God Rank.

"I will make you all regret for betraying the Adventurer Guild! I will kill all of you! Let this be a lesson for others!" Parmes revealed that he was no longer Demi-God Rank, but God Rank.
