Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong Chapter 2901: 1588: A Sudden Overwhelming Opponent

~4 minute read · 990 words

Within the oppressive darkness of the tempestuous barrier zone, the furious hollers of the Correctors reverberated, their crimson gazes hurtling towards Leo Ray and his companions from every angle.

Once these formidable Correctors entered their berserk state, mirroring the ferocity of true Berserkers, their attack range and speed experienced a dramatic escalation. This not only intensified the plight of everyone present but also caused the energy shockwaves, like colossal tidal waves, to relentlessly batter Moli’s spatial barrier.

“Breaking through my barrier will prove to be no simple feat!”

Moli clenched her jaw, her petite and elegant form weaving left and right through the relentless assault of the Correctors, all while exerting her utmost effort to preserve the integrity of the space barrier. The confined space and the imperative to counteract the enemy’s onslaught made it exceedingly difficult for little Moli to fully deploy her natural agility. However, she was a prodigy in space manipulation, and as a Forest Language Singer, she had absorbed profound knowledge of the Elf Core’s arcane might since her youth, granting her a power that eclipsed that of ordinary half-step Tier 7 experts.

Nevertheless, the continuous emergence of new Correctors, though limited in number, felt like the final exertion before collapse. This left the powerful individuals increasingly fatigued, and consecutively more violent energy waves began to splash against the space barrier.

“…Ugh!”

Sensing the mounting pressure, Moli’s movements noticeably lost their swiftness as she desperately maintained the space barrier. This lapse was swiftly exploited by a Deerman Corrector wielding a colossal sword, its sharpened blade already arcing towards the back of Moli’s head!

The turn of events unfolded with startling suddenness. Coupled with the turbulent spatial energy swirling around, not only was Moli herself unaware of the immediate peril, but the other beleaguered experts nearby had also failed to perceive the imminent danger.

In a fleeting moment, Moli’s slender, exquisite form was starkly juxtaposed against the descending arc of the giant sword blade, plunging the entire scene into a state of extreme peril.

CLANG!

In the very next instant, a towering figure, adorned with a lightning-emblazoned longsword, materialized just in time, directly repelling the lethal strike of the giant sword.

There was no doubt that the figure wielding the longsword was none other than Leo Ray.

The moment he deflected the foe’s colossal blade, Leo Ray deliberately employed a diversionary tactic rather than a direct confrontation. This strategic maneuver undoubtedly served to minimize the disruptive reach of the ensuing energy collision waves.

“!”

It was only upon Leo Ray’s timely intervention that Moli finally grasped the gravity of the disaster she had narrowly evaded, beads of cold sweat trickling down her forehead. Despite the opponent’s strength only being at the peak of Tier 6, they possessed exceptional prowess in close-quarters combat and raw physical might. In Moli’s current compromised state, her energy barrier could scarcely withstand a single decisive blow from such an adversary. The implications of such an event were chillingly self-evident.

Furthermore, she found herself at the absolute limit of her capabilities, practically unable to sustain the spatial barrier any longer.

Caught in the throes of shock, just as Moli prepared to voice her gratitude towards Leo Ray, his firm and resonant voice preceded her words: “You’ve endured admirably, but now dismantle the space barrier. I have my own methods for handling this.”

“It’s your command, not that I’m admitting defeat!”

A surge of warmth permeated Moli’s heart, despite her defiant declaration, and she swiftly proceeded to dismantle the barrier.

As the spatial barrier dissipated, an immensely fierce and expansive gust of wind spontaneously erupted, instantly coalescing into what appeared to be an impenetrable, thick wind wall. This formidable defense replaced the spatial barrier, standing resolutely before the vulnerable Golem Puppets and preventing any further expansion of the breaches.

This defensive magic, christened “Roaring Barrier,” was conjured from a seventh-tier magical scroll possessed by Leo Ray. Although the seventh-tier scrolls in Leo Ray’s possession were exceedingly scarce, he deployed this particular scroll without the slightest hesitation during this critical moment of life and death.

Upon its activation, the “Roaring Barrier” not only intercepted all the surging residual energy but also generated a wind-attribute enhancement force field, completely enveloping the allied experts under Leo Ray’s command and significantly augmenting their speed.

Bolstered by the speed enhancement from the force field, the allied experts successfully re-established their combat rhythm, commencing a vigorous counter-offensive against the encroaching enemies.

Observing this turn of events, Leo Ray, who remained engaged in a fierce struggle with a specific type of Corrector, inwardly exhaled a sigh of relief. Facing seemingly insurmountable odds, although their side still appeared somewhat defensive, the prospect of holding on for a little longer now seemed attainable.

However, in a sudden twist, the unexpected transpired once more.

Without any forewarning, a thunderous, earth-shattering boom emanated from a section of the otherwise unyielding wind wall. The subsequent torrents of energy violently swept away all nearby allied experts and Correctors, leaving them in a state of disarray.

Stunned, Leo Ray redirected his gaze towards the source of the commotion. There, he beheld an elder Deerman, encased in resplendent golden armor and possessing a robust physique. Judging by his imposing aura, it was evident that he, too, was a Corrector.

What shocked Leo Ray even further was that within the currently turbulent expanse of energy, the newcomer's colossal aura was unmistakably palpable, possessing a terrifying might that could overwhelm even the greatest heroes. Undoubtedly, it was this profound and majestic aura that was silently taking shape. “Could this truly be an authentic Demigod?” Fei’er’s starry eyes widened in disbelief. Having been a Demigod herself, she was acutely aware that the aura radiating from the opponent far surpassed that of any other powerhouse in attendance.
