Chapter 180 The Guardian Spirit Beast Makes a Move
After hearing the System notifications, Romo did not know if he should be happy or sad. He was happy that he would be rewarded again. He was sad that since the System had already notified him, Norton and Charles must be in a very difficult situation.
Moreover, there were still eleven descendants who were about to be enfolded into the clan. However, they had not been approved by the System yet, so the System had not mentioned them.
Although Karuman was around, this was not a foolproof plan. Or rather, Karuman alone would not be able to resist the other party.
An urgent mission had appeared in the System, which meant that the current situation must be extremely urgent.
Romo had been using the Visitation Talisman to observe the situation, but the Visitation Talisman could only allow him to see the situation. It could not allow him to sense the number of enemies around or their level.
However, from the battle between the two sides, it could be seen that the other party’s level was about the same as Karuman’s, and might even be higher.
Romo had given Norton and Charles an Ancestral Blessing Talisman, but the power of this tool was very limited. When faced with a real attack, it could only block once before it would lose its effect.
Now that the situation was so urgent, the easiest way was to use the Ancestral Protection Talisman in the inventory. This way, the crisis would be resolved immediately.
However, the Ancestral Protection Talisman was too precious. Romo did not want to use it unless he had no choice.
Furthermore, in the current situation, it was fine not to use the Ancestral Protection Talisman. Romo had already thought of another method to cleverly resolve this crisis.
With this thought, Romo focused his gaze on the tree behind the ancestral hall.
After using the Guardian Spirit Beast Breakthrough Talisman on the Five-Color Peacock previously, the Five-Color Peacock had been in seclusion to train. It had already been a month.
The Five-Color Peacock seemed to have sensed something. It quickly stood up and looked around in surprise. Its master had already sent it a message, but the Five-Color Peacock did not see its master.
The Five-Color Peacock immediately read the information sent by its master. It pondered for a moment and listened carefully at other times. After it had understood the mission its master had given it, the Five-Color Peacock seemed a little reluctant, but it still had to go. It had no choice but to slowly stand up, spread its wings, and transform into a five-colored beam of light, disappearing into the air.
When the members of the Nicholas family saw this scene, they were all amazed by the power of the Five-Color Divine Beast.
Zoro, who had been at home, saw this scene and cried out. This was because the Old Ancestor had previously said that the Five-Color Peacock was about to break through and was currently in seclusion. Now that the Five-Color Peacock had actually flown away, there must be some danger.
Zoro quickly thought for a moment and soon understood something. “Could it be that Norton and the others are in danger?” Then, Zoro quickly instructed the servants to get the people outside to come back immediately.
“Wow, what’s that in the sky?”
“Rainbow, I guess. But it’s not raining. Why is there a rainbow?”
“That looks like it was transformed from a divine beast.”
“Divine Beast? The one from the Nicholas family clan?”
“Maybe. It seems to have flown out from that direction.”
“But why is it leaving?”
“Has something happened to the Nicholas family again?”
“I don’t know. Their family clan is mysterious. Who knows what happened?”
In Winterfrost, everyone who saw this scene started discussing it again.
At this moment, in a luxurious hotel in the north of the city, an old man was standing by the window, looking out at the five-colored light which was gradually disappearing in the sky. Something different appeared in his eyes.
Behind him was a middle-aged man, the one who had reported the information earlier about the Chief whom Ron had killed.
This middle-aged man was also looking out the window. From his expression, he seemed a little worried. “Chief, the Guardian Spirit Beast seems to have flown in that direction. Chief, there won’t be danger, would there?”
However, the old man did not think much of it. “Don’t worry, this is within expectations. Master will have a solution.”
Clearly, this sentence was not enough to convince the middle-aged man. The middle-aged man was still very worried, but he had to answer, “Yes, I understand.”
“Pass down the order. Get someone to prepare to take action,” said the old man.
“Yes, I understand.” The middle-aged man immediately received the order and left the room.
The old man looked in the direction of the Nicholas family palace and muttered to himself, “I’ll see today how many more secrets the Nicholas family has.”
With a loud rumble, a ball of lightning suddenly appeared and exploded in the sky. Instantly, countless electric currents appeared in the sky.
A figure appeared from the countless electric currents and landed beside the two carriages. The energy was so powerful that the ground trembled.
The carriage drivers had no choice but to pull on the reins with all their might to stabilize the horses. In the end, the horses actually kept shaking and eventually collapsed, foaming at the mouth.
The two carriage drivers were also horrified. They could only hug each by the side of the carriages and shiver.
Apart from the two carriage drivers, the people in the carriages were also very afraid. They did not dare to speak at all. Norton and Charles were fine, but Herbert was in complete despair.
Norton watched helplessly as Karuman was struck down, but he dared not make any sound for fear of diverting Karuman’s attention.
Karuman did not have any time to rest. When he landed, he quickly gathered the energy in his body and formed a golden protective barrier above with his hands, protecting himself and the others.
At the same time, the lightning in the sky struck down, but it was blocked by the golden protective shield. A loud bang sounded in the sky. Boom! Boom! Boom! Lightning continued to strike down. Gradually, Karuman could not hold out much longer. The golden protective shield seemed about to collapse. Karuman could only grit his teeth and endure.
This battle seemed about to be lost.
After all, he was only at level-4 of the Divine Power Realm, while the other party was at level-5. He had already persisted for half an hour. Now, he was completely suppressed and had no chance to resist.
Currently, Karuman had changed his strategy from attacking to defending, but he was still being completely suppressed. He would not be able to last much longer.
In the air, an old man in purple clothes appeared. “You’re really a good dog raised by the Nicholas family. If I didn’t know your past, I would have been moved by you.”
“What does the Nicholas family have that is worthy of your loyalty? How about I give you a chance to live? You can join our Mu Guang Pavilion.”
