“Everyone, let us use the Double Impact Formation to destroy the Howling Castle in one hit!” Knight Marco turned and ordered the others.

Not a single God Rank Knight had been left behind in the Holy Kingdom.

Indeed, ever since the two Rank 29 Knights learned about how powerful Abel was, they had decided to take care of him once the Demon from Beyond was resurrected. None of the holy knights would be separated on that mission.

As for the Saint, a new one would replace him if he was killed, and all the treasure in the Holy Kingdom was stolen, anyway.

Soon, Knight Epstein arrived next to Knight Marco. Three God Rank Knights stood next to each of them, forming an arrow head.

Their Worlds emerged above them, and holy energy began to move between them. This way, they would be able to transfer thoughts and maximize the power of the Formation.

The eight God Rank Knights stood behind the Guardian Wings’ energy shield. They only had one strike because the Wizard Union would be able to react once they stepped out of the Holy Kingdom.

“Glory to the lord!” Knight Marco roared with passion.

At the same instant, the eight God Rank knights activated their Charge ability, and a greatly strengthened Energy Aura appeared above Knight Marco.

It immediately went from Rank 8 to Rank 10, which meant their power was maximized.

Bang! Air particles blasted open and the eight God Rank Knights charged out of the Guardian Wings energy shield.

The man on duty in the Howling Castle was Wizard Coleridge, who was slowly letting his guard down after days of peace.

After all, they had a bunch of Magic Circles both in the front lines and within the new Howling Castle to detect holy knights as soon as they appeared.

He was playing around with an Ice Ball when suddenly a sharp alert sounded. He quickly dropped the ice ball on the ground and Flashed to the operation room. Immediately, he sensed eight God Rank Knights!

Originally he did not need to alert the Wizard Union since those Magic Circles would do it automatically, but considering how fast those knights were coming, he knew they meant business!

In the past the Holy Kingdom would only send out five God Rank knights at most, but this time they had eight!

He quickly triggered a full alert. Eight energy shields appeared around the Howling Caster, with each of them capable of stopping a God Rank attack.

In just ten seconds, the knights appeared in front of the Howling Castle.

At the same time, Wizard Coleridge summoned forty Blizzards from his World. They were quickly strengthened by the Howling Castle and wrapped around the place.

Normally this would make the knights pause for a second, since the Blizzard spell was a wizard’s most powerful method when it came to stopping an enemy, but they didn’t hesitate at all as they continued forward.

After all, it was Knight Epstein’s first battle back, and he knew the Wizard Union would be able to come for support if they paused.

Wizard Coleridge’s spell was enchanted, but his Rank was still too low compared to Knight Epstein, and it could not stop eight God Rank Knights in their Formation.

Their Energy Aura was soon replaced by the Healing Aura to combat the Blizzards.

At the same time, the Faith and Passion Aura increased their attacks to maximum.

The first strike Knight Epstein made to the energy shield was a revenge combo attack, supported by the energy of all the other knights.

The first layer of the energy shield was immediately shattered into stars. Soon, the second revenge strike followed from his World and took down the second layer as well.

Just like that, they continued to penetrate the energy shields like a needle penetrating bubbles.

After all, they were determined and furious after what Abel had done, so they intended to take their anger out on the Howling Castle!

Wizard Coleridge kept Casting spells as he kept calling the Wizard Union for support. But as the knights kept coming, he knew the Howling Castle was coming to an end.

There were only five God Rank Wizards available in the Wizard Union, since they were not expecting the Holy Kingdom to get two extra God Rank Knights. It would be a losing battle even if they came.

After all, the Howling Castle was not as important as the life of a God Rank!

When he saw the knights making contact with the last layer of energy shield, he activated a Flash without hesitation and disappeared from the spot through the Teleportation Circle.

Bang! Countless ice blasts filled the Howling Castle, and all one hundred wizards within it were killed instantly.

Wizard Coleridge reappeared on the Warding Wall with a bit of ice crystals on him. If he was just a little slower, he might have been dead.

“Damn it, two Rank 39 Knights broke the Howling Castle’s defense!” he roared.

At the same time, a thick energy shield shot up towards the sky from the Warding Wall. Unlike the Howling Castle, it was created by a special element after countless years of accumulation.

The result was that it could stop multiple attacks from a God Rank.

Soon, ten God Rank Wizards were teleported in from the Wizard Union, none of them saying anything.

“Wizard Coleridge, how did it happen?” Wizard Smith asked in confusion.

Every God Rank wizard who ventured far away in the central continent had a special teleportation device that let them return as quickly as possible, but it was still too late!

Wizard Coleridge calmed himself down and replied shortly, “Two Rank 39 Knights and six other God Rank Knights charged straight into the Howling Castle’s defense. My spells could not stop them!”

“Seems like our battle just took another level up!” Wizard Smith’s face also sank.

The Holy Kingdom was annoying them, but they were also very mindful of not going too far.

But this time, those two Rank 39 Knights really were going all out!

After all, those God Rank Knights before were all Rank 36 or 37. Their abilities were about the same, and since they all had their own egos, they couldn’t be united even in a battle.

When danger came, they would all just fight for themselves, but everything changed with a powerful knight as a leader, which pushed their power to a whole new level.

Wizard Smith looked around and sighed. If the Holy Kingdom was committed, they had no choice.

The Wizard Union might have a systematic way of doing things, but they also did not have a leader at that moment, so they would be at a disadvantage!

“Should we rebuild the Howling Castle?” Wizard McPhee asked.

It was the question that dictated their following moves.

“Let’s just wait for our other God Rank wizards to return!” Wizard Smith shook his head.

Indeed, he did not have the confidence to stop those God Rank Knights even if he could rebuild it, especially since the dwarves were Abel’s people and they would need to pay them for repairing it.

Sending the dwarves to die would mean picking a fight with Abel!

The other wizards Wizard Smith was talking about were three God Rank Wizards who had ventured far away and had just received a notice to return. They were already Rank 39 before they left, so they would be able to hold down the Holy Kingdom even if they had not grown a single bit during this time.

“Agreed!”

“Agreed!”

All the God Rank wizards nodded.

None of them want to fight a risky battle with the other side having two Rank 39 Knights. Even with the best defense system, it was best to wait for now!
