Chapter 99

The battle outside the Tower of Wisdom continued.

The battle between the Gold Rank powerhouses was not too desperate. Their influence was too great, and it was easy for them to cause earth-shattering effects. Moreover, killing an equally matched Gold Rank opponent was no easy task.

For example, now, Professor Lawrence and Garcia were fighting fiercely, and Wakano and Malo's spells were dazzling. The environment around the Tower of Wisdom had been almost completely destroyed, yet the four people's battle had not yet determined a winner.

At this moment, a dark red sphere suddenly appeared in the air and then shot off into the distance. The four people all keenly observed this phenomenon and reacted differently.

"They're out!" Garcia and Malo instantly lost their fighting spirit. After exchanging glances, they immediately used their most taboo and strongest moves to force Professor Lawrence and Wakano to retreat.

Garcia suddenly jumped up, gathering all his battle aura into his hammer, and with a loud bang, he smashed it into the ground. The massive shockwave forced Professor Lawrence to step back. Malo, on the other hand, summoned countless fire snakes around him, which rushed at Wakano from all directions!

As a result, Wakano could only focus on defense for the moment and had no way to counterattack. Garcia and Malo took this opportunity to sprint madly toward the place where the dark red sphere had landed!

However, they didn't run far before Vice Dean Galant appeared in the air.

"The True God Sect entered our Azure Wind without permission; don't think you can leave easily!" Galant's face was grim. With a wave of his hand, a large ice wall appeared in front of Garcia and Malo!

Garcia and Malo both stopped. They were well aware that although Vice Dean Galant was also a Gold Rank, his strength was worlds apart from theirs!

Garcia and Malo, including Morse, were only at the initial Gold Rank... which meant their level was only seven. Vice Dean Galant, on the other hand, was said to have reached level nine! A genuine high-level Gold Rank!

The difference in strength was enough to make them lose the courage to resist.

"Two Gold Ranks... very good. Exchanging you two for those two should be enough, right?" Galant raised his staff again, and two translucent chains descended from the sky, flying directly toward Garcia and Malo.

The two naturally knew that if they were trapped by these chains, they would be like lambs waiting to be slaughtered. They were unwilling to become prisoners and immediately resisted with all their might!

Garcia roared, swinging his giant hammer upward, directly knocking the chains far away. Malo, on the other hand, waved his hand, forming a series of fireballs in front of him, which fiercely attacked the chain in the air!

Galant was not in a hurry and casually threw down two more chains. It seemed he was determined not to let the two escape.

Lawrence and Wakano also caught up. Seeing Garcia and Malo fighting against Galant, they joined the battle without a word.

"Don't kill them; I need them alive!" Galant said coolly from the air, waving his staff and commanding the four chains to continuously attack the two. Lawrence and Wakano, not knowing Galant's intentions, watched from the side, not daring to attack recklessly.

"Damn Galant, we would rather die than be captured!" Garcia shouted, his battle aura bursting, enveloping him in a massive shadow. The hammer in the shadow's hand was several times larger than the one in his hand. With one swing, he hit all four chains away!

The translucent chains made a crisp breaking sound, and several sections even flew out. However, these broken chains immediately turned into light orbs and flew back to the chains, re-melting into them.

"It seems we need to injure them to make them behave. Lawrence, Wakano, you can give them a lesson..." Galant frowned, looking at Garcia and Malo. After all, they were two Gold Rank powerhouses. If he used his full strength, killing them was not impossible, but capturing them was indeed difficult.

Lawrence and Wakano understood Galant's meaning and immediately launched their attacks. Lawrence's longsword gathered battle aura, and Wakano began chanting spells again!

Garcia and Malo's faces showed despair. If these two joined the battle, they had no way to escape! But compared to being captured, perhaps death was a better fate!

"By the power of my god, eternal and boundless!" Malo suddenly shouted, his body instantly engulfed in raging flames. The flames were so intense that they even turned the night sky red.

"Trying to commit suicide! Do the True God Sect people really not value their own lives?" Galant was also troubled. If they were determined to die, even at the initial Gold Rank, he had no guarantee of stopping them...

"Scum of the True God Sect, die!" Suddenly, from the side of the forest, a sword beam slashed out! This sword beam contained an incredibly powerful battle aura, cutting a path through the forest, with Garcia and Malo as its targets!

Seeing this battle aura coming from the side, Garcia's eyes flashed with surprise. However, this expression was very subtle, and no one else noticed. He roared and pounced, grabbing Malo and turning his body to shield him from the incoming battle aura, using his back to block it!

With a loud bang, the two were blasted away, crashing through a large area of forest and other small buildings, raising a cloud of dust!

"Alexander! Why are you so reckless..." Galant looked down at the person approaching, his face darkening.

Alexander looked up, surprised: "What, they're not from the True God Sect? Weren't you fighting?"

Galant shook his head, saying nothing, but looked far into the direction where the two had been blasted away.

"Alexander, Galant was trying to capture them, but you blasted them away..." Lawrence walked over, looking at Alexander.

"Capture? Why? You can't get anything from the True God Sect people, better to just kill them! Anyway, we've already made enemies; do you think they won't hold a grudge against Azure Wind?" Alexander was still puzzled.

Lawrence wasn't entirely clear either and could only shake his head: "I'm not sure..."

"When Morse escaped, he took two people. I wanted to capture them to exchange for Morse." Galant looked at Lawrence and sighed.

Lawrence's face immediately changed. He had seen Anya and Ji Ran enter the Tower of Wisdom! So the two people Morse captured...

"Chase them! We must catch them!" Lawrence sheathed his sword and, looking in the direction Garcia and Malo had fled, leaped high and sprinted away!

"We must catch them! Alexander, you stay here and handle the situation, see if there are any remaining True God Sect members. I'll chase those two, and Wakano, you go see where Morse has fled to..." Galant instructed everyone, then, surrounded by a whirlwind, followed Lawrence in the direction Garcia and Malo had fled.

"Alexander, why are you so late?" Wakano looked at Alexander.

"I went to defend the college hall. The True God Sect even dared to imprison Vice Dean Galant; if they kidnapped students, what would we do?" Alexander's reason was sound.

Wakano nodded: "I'll leave this to you. I'll go see about Morse... Damn, he actually captured students, this is a bit troublesome."

Alexander nodded, and after everyone left, he looked up and coldly snorted: "Hmph, I've done my part, now it's up to you to keep your word..."

Professor Lawrence pursued madly, able to faintly see Garcia's fleeing figure. But Garcia was also a Gold Rank, and his speed was not much slower than Professor Lawrence's. Moreover, it seemed Garcia was using some forbidden divine techniques to speed up both him and Malo!

Galant caught up with Lawrence in the air: "Don't worry, those two kids are quite clever, they should be fine."

Lawrence smiled bitterly: "What use is their cleverness? It depends on whether Morse is clever enough!"

"Morse is also smart; he should know that to save Garcia and Malo, he can't let them die... I sent Wakano to chase Morse, at least to prevent him from escaping elsewhere. The True God Sect fanatics don't care about their lives, but we Azure Wind can't afford to be careless!"

Galant's expression was resolute as he looked far into the blurred figures of Garcia and Malo.

"So, they must be captured!"

Galant's figure in the air suddenly accelerated, shooting through the night sky like a meteor. Professor Lawrence gritted his teeth, pushed off the ground, and leaped up again!

Gold Rank swordsmen could master flying to some extent. However, in terms of travel, a swordsman's flight could not compare to a mage's. High leaps were a better means of travel.

"Stop them, don't let them reach the densely populated areas!" Lawrence shouted to Galant from behind.

At first, the True God Sect only planned to steal from Azure Wind and did not intend to cause too much commotion, so they did not target densely populated areas. But if they were driven to a desperate situation, no one could predict what they might do.

"I understand!" Galant, flying ahead, raised his staff again in the air.

This time, the light gathered on the staff illuminated the night sky.
