Chapter 336 Escape ( 4 )
"You will not get away! Stay here!"
The old project leader came out of the altar room and followed Vincent with renewed vigor. Now that they are out of the dimension, their natural mana recovery started working again.
They no longer have to rely on potions to recover their energy.
This gave them more confidence to fight against the Celestial Being and Vincent.
Well, considering their situation, they only need to capture Vincent and his Celestial Being would be easy to deal with.
"Hmmph! You dare attack the Tower Lord\'s disciple?! You have a death wish!"
Vincent shouted to remind them of his status… A fireball had almost connected to him because of this but he still continued…
"I will tell this to Master Ignacy and you\'ll be dead!"
Vincent said in a loud voice as he tried to scare them away including the others who were just passing by in the hallway.
These clueless people immediately recognized Vincent as they made a path for him. They were indeed quite scared after hearing the Tower Lord\'s name…
Not many would dare to mention his name, especially those with Gray Emblems. They would only refer to him by his title but since Vincent is a disciple, he has no troubles at all.
This shows his status so they unconsciously made a path for him…
The old leader was obviously frustrated at this but he has no time to scold these people…
"Tower Master! Please! Stop this man!"
The old leader pleaded as he realized that Vincent is about to escape.
He needs to get the 15th Tower Master\'s assistance to subdue these two!
Vincent was actually quite nervous after hearing this… The minimum requirement to be a Tower Master is to become a Penta-Caster, a magician capable of casting five Mana Arts at the same time!
If this Tower Master arrived, they would certainly be in trouble…
Luckily, the Tower Master was busy defending the tower from the external threat!
Boom! Boom!
Explosions were heard from the outside as they realized that someone was attacking the tower…
"Warning! Warning! The tower\'s lockdown will begin in 30 seconds to preserve itself."
"Warning! Warning! The tower\'s lockdown will begin in 30 seconds to preserve itself."
This announcement was heard throughout the Tower… It seems to be a recorded mechanical voice and Vincent couldn\'t help but think that it was from artificial intelligence.
Anyway, he still smirked after confirming that Tara and Rem started to act. It\'s easy to guess that they were the culprit for the commotion outside.
The old leader realized this as well as soon as he saw Vincent\'s smile.
"You… This is part of your plan?!"
He was shocked to find out that Vincent has helpers ready to attack their tower! It wasn\'t only them that made preparations but also this young man whom they thought they could easily control.
They have truly made a mistake this time. They shouldn\'t have failed to control Vincent inside the Altar Room! Now, this man started creating huge problems and he wouldn\'t be able to explain this to the Tower Master.
"Hmph! Just leave us alone!" Vincent shouted as he continued using his shrouded steps to get to the ground floor with Luna…
"You will not get away!"
The project leader no longer cared about his condition as he activated a powerful Mana Art…
His facial orifices started bleeding as he overexerted himself.
Luna felt alarmed as she turned her head to glance at the accumulating power behind them. She only has to briefly see it and she recognized what kind of power it was.
"Aether?!" Luna was shocked but as she understands the gravity of the situation, she immediately calculated her next move… She doesn\'t know whether Vincent could survive this attack after all…
"Vincent, wear the full-body suit now!" She warned in a hurry as she formed another wave of Celestial Energy and slammed the accumulating Aether to push it away…
It is not meant to destroy or stop the attack at all but only to delay it… If she wanted to stop this attack, she would need to concentrate for a few seconds which she didn\'t have. She can only hastily throw her raw energy without any complicated formation to delay the old man\'s desperate attack.
Vincent followed her instruction and activated his Protective Suit Mode.
This will consume 100 units of Pseudo-Celestial Energy every 3 minutes.
It is a huge amount considering he only has over 2 thousand units but he doesn\'t have an intention of wearing this for long… Once they got out of the tower, he will be able to use the armor\'s boost mode and escape easily…
"Die!" The old man shouted as he managed to still gather some Aether to attack the two…
Although it wasn\'t much because he was interrupted by Luna, he believes that it will buy him some time until the Tower locked down.
If Vincent was trapped inside, it wouldn\'t matter how powerful he was, he will succumb to the endless Formation Arts of the Tower that is controlled by the Tower Master.
Vincent felt the danger behind him… They were already close to the exit and he wasn\'t sure whether they could get out in time.
No wonder Luna asked him to wear the armor.
\'I just need to buy some time… We can do this!\'
With this in mind, Vincent pulled out one of the items in his Interspatial Ring.
It is the River Dragon\'s Left Eye and it has two active skills that he can use.
"Please work… Summon Flood!" Vincent did not hesitate to activate this skill.
He felt a huge amount of his Pseudo-Celestial Energy taken from him. He then learned that he could actually control the direction of the summoned flood…
Needless to say, he aimed the flood at the old man to push him and the other pursuers away.
Unfortunately, the ball of aether energy was already thrown and still coming to them… The summoned flood was unable to push this lump of energy so Luna has to block it with her Celestial Armor…
\'Ugh!\'
She doesn\'t have enough Celestial Energy to contend against it.
She can only gather a bit of energy to wrap around her arms and catch the dark energy ball coming at them.
Boom!
Luna triggered an explosion after doing this and the impact actually helped them get closer to the exit!
"We\'re out!" Vincent shouted in delight as soon as he stepped outside the tower. However, he noticed that Luna\'s arm was hurt so he immediately composed himself and helped her get away under Tara and Rem\'s cover.
