Chapter 328 First round (6)
No one saw us as we came forward and we were able to take positions around their groups.
They were just too focused on each other that they didn't notice anything around them.
Judging by the looks on the faces of the group from the Beijing Tigers, it was clear that they were enjoying this. It was as if they were enjoying the feeling of suppressing someone like this.
But I could tell that it wasn't just that.
From time to time, I could hear a few whispers.
"How dare you guildless trash dare think that you're on the same level as us?"
"You think that just because you have a bit of power, you can be on the same level as us?"
"In your dreams!"
It didn't seem like an inferiority complex since they were technically of higher status than these unaffiliated Awakeners.
So it just seemed like they disliked unaffiliated Awakeners for some reason.
It was hard to figure out just why they felt this way and I wasn't really interested in them.
After all, they were my enemies.
There was no need for me to really understand what these enemies were thinking.
Once we were all in position, there was no time to waste.
With a nod to Long Shui Ling, there was a mist that suddenly appeared.
When Cheng Hui's team noticed this mist, they immediately stopped attacking the unaffiliated Awakeners and formed up together. The speed at which they came together really wasn't normal.
Even if they were terrible people, it seemed like they had trained properly.
So that was one thing that could be considered admirable when it came to this group.
But they were still enemies.
Using the cover of this mist, the unaffiliated Awakeners were brought away by Qin Yue Ru, some members of Kaito's group, and a few of Julius' men.
Once they were safe, we made our move on Cheng Hui's group.
…
"What's going on here?" Cheng Hui said in an angry voice.
But the members of his group weren't able to say anything since they had no idea what was happening either.
This mist had suddenly appeared and cut them off from the unaffiliated Awakeners.
It was almost so thick that they weren't able to see each other anymore.
If they didn't group up, it was certain that they would have lost each other.
But just where did this mist come from?
Cheng Hui looked at one of the members of his group and that person nodded before letting out a breath.
When that breath came out, there was another mist that suddenly filled the air that pushed out the mist around them.
This was a purple mist that was different from the white mist that had appeared.
With this purple mist around them, it was as if they had gained a barrier against that white mist.
But that white mist was still very thick around them.
Not a single one of them dared to move from where they were standing since they knew that there must be a reason why this white mist had appeared. So if they did move, there was no doubt that they would fall into some kind of trap.
But what should they do now?
It wasn't as if they could just remain here forever.
Cheng Hui bit his lip for a bit before saying, "Group up, we're charging out."
The other members of his group had surprised looks on their faces, but they nodded in agreement in the end.
Then all of them came together and gathered their mana as they wanted to use their skills to charge out.
They were prepared just in case anything happened, but it didn't seem like there was anything that was going to stop them.
There was a layer of lightning, a layer of fire, and a layer of rocks that formed in front of them.
Once these layers of energy formed, they immediately started charging forward with it as a shield.
With these shields in front of them, they were able to move unimpeded for a few meters.
But right when they were about to let their guards down…they suddenly hit something.
They were able to react in time, but they found that this thing that they hit was not something that they could resist. It was a barrier that had suddenly appeared in the mist that shattered all of the attacks that they had gathered in front of them.
If it wasn't for the attacks, then they might have smashed into the barrier themselves and hurt themselves like that.
But thanks to these attacks taking the brunt of it, they weren't injured at all.
After that, they immediately gathered more attacks to throw at the barrier.
They didn't know what this barrier was, but they were certain that whoever put it there wasn't someone friendly.
Since that was the case, there was no reason for them to hold back.
They all used their different attacks to hit the barrier, but they were shocked to find that the barrier didn't seem to take any damage at all.
It was as if the barrier didn't even exist as their attacks had gone right through it.
But they didn't have time to remain shocked as balls of fire suddenly rained down on them.
They used different attacks to block these balls of fire, but they found that there were also some balls of fire that seemed to be fake.
"Illusions." Cheng Hui suddenly said out loud.
When he did, all of them suddenly realized what was happening.
There was a skilled illusionist that was on the other side that was using illusions to make fake attacks and fake barriers. It was all a ploy to make them waste even more energy so that they would be easier to take down.
Cheng Hui was about to say something, but before he could…
There was a shock that suddenly came over them before any of them could react.
They found that there was a layer of water that was at their feet and this was what was carrying the electricity to them.
