Chapter 292: Chapter 280: The 4th Ladder "Black Knight"_2
Darren still laughed heartily and said, "Hear me out, that girl from the Frosac family, she actually fell in love with Felix at first sight!"
He nodded in pride, "I originally thought that my honest son might not be that attractive to girls, hahaha!"
Yeager fell into silence, finally understanding why the letter was urgently sent here, and then continued to ask, "Then why did Karno still decide to leave the family."
Darren continued to read the contents of the letter, speaking as he read, "Because he needs to leave his current environment to complete his ascension ritual. I really never asked what the 'Unpredictable Sorcerer's' ascension ritual is, so I don't know the specifics, but I can understand since many ascension rituals have all sorts of bizarre requirements."
He put down the letter, his brow deeply furrowed, and said:
"I really don't understand, why would someone like Karno, with such a smart head on his shoulders, fall seriously for a woman like Sunbelle?"
"No wonder there are so many people in the Dawn Church, yet to this day he is the only one who can walk the Path of Revelation; this path must be for those with strange ways of thinking."
Yeager smiled and offered a different perspective.
"I can understand a bit. After all, Miss Sunbelle's twelve years of companionship took up half of Karno's life. She cared for him daily, provided meticulous attention, and followed every one of Karno's ideas..."
"Without a doubt, she would not be so easily discarded from Karno's heart, at the end of the day because he is very kind."
Darren scoffed and retorted:
"Mayor Yeager, if it were you, would you make the same decision as Karno, going against your family's wishes for such a woman?"
Yeager revealed a meaningful smile and responded without hesitation:
"No!"
"Hahahaha! That's why you can't walk the Path of Revelation!"
Darren laughed heartily, feeling that he got along well with Yeager. As he continued to read the rest of the letter's contents, he suddenly said:
"Wait! When leaving the family, Karno didn't take a single penny with him, and he also took Sunbelle along. I'm suddenly starting to understand his thoughts!"
Yeager shook his head, picked up a telescope to look into the distance, and suddenly reminded:
"We will soon reach our destination, about another hour before we can land, Lord Darren, get ready."
He added seriously, "When we land, I also ask that you follow my command, Lord Darren."
Darren smiled, nodding and said, "Yes, I will. To coordinate with your ascension ritual, of course, you must also cooperate with mine, let's work together."
The group finally landed on the island, and Yeager immediately began to command everyone to start the battle.
The fourth rank of the Path of Conquest was "Commander," and he had to direct an utterly victorious campaign to complete the ascension ritual.
"The Cyart people are here!"
The natives of the island were thrown into a panic, overtaken by fear of the Cyart people.
Following their landing, Darren and his companions charged forward without holding back.
Soon they encountered the island's low-grade barriers rising up, two high-level Transmutation members of the Sea God Cult's Extraordinary Exponents, leading more than a dozen Beginning level and several hundred armed natives arriving.
The two sides quickly encountered each other in the island's jungle.
Yeager took a strange firearm from his bosom, using Spiritual Power to activate the "Flaw Detection Eye," instantly locking onto the fatal weaknesses of three Beginning level Extraordinary Exponents.
"Sword brandishing" activated!
"Bang," "Bang," "Bang!"
He raised his hand and fired continuously, three precise bullets instantly killed three Beginning level Extraordinary Exponents.
Darren immediately noticed the unprecedented firearm, and many on the battlefield were also stunned, never having seen a firearm that could continuously shoot, constantly firing bullets.
"What kind of firearm is that?"
In response to Darren's question, Yeager quickly replied:
"It's a gift from a Priest of the Reforging Church a few days ago... called a 'revolver', I think it will eventually replace flintlocks entirely!"
A revolver?
Darren deeply remembered this strange name.
He vaguely felt that if the development of weapons continued, the Extraordinary Exponents at the Beginning Level would become increasingly powerless on the battlefield.
Yeager commanded the Extraordinary Exponents belonging to the Fischer family, shouting loudly, "Spread out to avoid concentrated damage from the enemy, and make sure not to attack your teammates!"
Just then, a priest from the Sea God Cult bellowed.
"Kill them! Don't be afraid!"
Then bursts of lightning erupted from his body. Although he was a priest of the Sea God Cult, his power of Bloodline was lightning-type, and he instantly charged toward them with lightning.
"Very well, come on then! Let my ascension ritual reach perfection..."
Darren sneered.
He activated the Power of Consecution of "Blood Dancer" and raised his hand to release a stream of blood arrows!
The blood arrows were astoundingly fast, hitting the priest's body instantly and producing several weak blood holes.
And just as the lightning was about to strike Darren, an armored undead suddenly appeared. It was very burly, wielding a shield as large as a round table which blocked the entire expanse of lightning.
It was a powerful deceased at the high-level Transmutation Level, originally an evil cultist of the Stars Embrace Order, arrested by the Tempest Church two years ago. The Fischer family obtained him through a trade, having him killed by Darren, becoming one of the undead he could summon through "Blood Dance."
While still aboard the ship, Darren had already prepared the Ritual Spell "Blood Dance", summoning the shield-bearing undead right before landing.
"How is this possible?"
The Sea God Cult's priest was astonished. How could his high-level Transmutation attacks be so easily blocked by his opponent?
How could this be?
Darren's complexion gradually paled; he could not maintain this level of "undead" for too much longer.
"Aren't you going to take action?"
Suddenly, an arrow carrying wind shot out from nearby, hitting the priest's body instantly and causing severe damage to the Sea God Cult's priest!
"Ah, it hurts! Ahhh!"
The gravely injured priest wailed, his expression extremely twisted and obviously in immense pain.
He could feel the seeds germinating and taking root inside him, continuously growing, and he had to quickly use lightning to destroy those plants!
The priest took out a Treasure class object that looked like a pocket, intending to use it, but suddenly the pocket was knocked away by a blood arrow.
"You!"
Darren took the opportunity to fire blood arrows again, which were fast and highly accurate, albeit not very powerful. If they did not hit vital spots, they would not be very effective against Transmutation Level Extraordinary Exponents.
The new blood arrows struck the neck, wounding the priest of the Sea God Cult again, but his body was tough enough to survive still.
However, the severely wounded and furious priest's body erupted with thunderbolts shooting out in all directions, charging at Darren almost in a frenzy.
Darren turned and ran without hesitation, shouting loudly,
"Quick, quick, quick! Elf granny! Help! I can't beat him, I can't beat him!"
Another arrow shot out from not far away; the priest, prepared to dodge, suddenly discovered his body couldn't move at all!
Plants had emerged from the ground, unseen, and suddenly locked him in place. The priest's body was once again pierced by arrows, and the agonizing torment erupted within him once more!
"Good, good, good! Elf granny, you're the most beautiful! Thank goodness!"
With a smile on his face, Darren trembled as he maintained the large shield-bearing undead and rushed forward to deliver a blow with the massive shield, brutally smashing the injured priest's head!
The last of his Spirituality boiled over, and his sensations were very clear.
"The ritual was a success..."
Depleted of Spiritual Power, Darren breathed a sigh of relief and collapsed on the ground, fainting.
