Chapter 1081 The Materialisation Formation
As he was feeling so, he spotted Anjie, running like mad, towards him.
"You do know how to make your girl scream and worry about you! You are mean!" she shouted in his face and punched his chest before her tears ran through her eyes. The next thing she did was to jump over him, giving him a bear hug like they hadn't seen each other for an entire decade or something.
"Easy there, I'm alright," after hugging and softly kissing his cheeks in the middle of all this, she distanced herself and started to inspect him thoroughly, looking for any hidden wound or injury.
"But… You got engulfed in that scary ball of light…"
"Don't ask, even I don't get what happened back there," he raised a hand to silence her, before turning his eyes around, "what the heck happened here? Did I miss something? Or did I take days to come out from that ball?"
"Hahaha, you just did all this without even realising it, hahaha!" She laughed at what he said, thinking he was playing or fooling around with her. But when she saw his dead serious face, she stopped laughing and added, "Listen, this happened…"
She started to tell him everything, starting from the weird fear feeling she and others felt, to the weird petrification status of the enemies. Be it monsters or dark masters, all were standing motionless in their place as if they got a freeze spell or something.
"Interesting… I wonder what invoked all this…" he knew all this happened because of his grand technique, and yet he didn't have a clue about the root of all this. He didn't have time to dig deeper or look for the main reason behind this, looked at the faraway fights as he added, "What's the situation out there?"
"So far all great," she chuckled, "we are killing everything we meet. Soon we'll control many paths and peaks, and we won't need that huge hole you created…"
*Rumble!*
Just before she'd continue her words, a fierce rumbling noise came from many directions all at once.
"Damn! You jinxed us!" he looked at her in a blaming way, and she put an innocent face there.
"It's not me, I didn't do anything… Anjie is a good girl, right?" She even put two fingers opposite to each other, acting so cool in front of him. But this wasn't the time to fool around.
She took this as normal fighting battle noises, but William could see far beyond what she could. These weren't normal explosions, as something got triggered, something that occurred at many places at the same time!
"They have explosive traps there!" This was the first thing that popped in his head, not just him, but everyone else who watched these explosions thought the same.
The ground shone brightly in shiny lines, expanding to cover the entire peaks, entire sides of mountains, and even large areas of many paths.
Then it felt like something kept hammering over these sturdy rocks with giant fists, gaps kept appearing everywhere, while rocks got thrown away, turning into smaller rocks, before all rained down towards the ground.
This was quite deadly for those in the valleys. The rocks fell and were mercilessly buried underneath tons of good masters. Before any leader would interfere and issue any order of retreat, many masters there acted.
They released all of their formidable and strong techniques, used their elements to either control the rocks to fall away from masters, melt the rocks by fire, use wind to blow them away, or even use lava and ice element-based techniques! They all used what they had, and few of these ended up making the situation worse!
Lava, fire, and ice turned these rocks into much more fierce weapons of killing! The elements that worked best were mainly earth, wind, and water.
"Retreat!"
"Stop using fire, lava, and ice, dammit!"
Shouts spread from the leaders standing at the rear, and that helped in saving the lives of tons of masters. The valleys that everyone thought they controlled already were lost, and they were gone with a large number of masters.
That wasn't all! The paths got lines shining all over them, and then a gush of monsters appeared. These were newly summoned, refreshingly joining the fight. No one knew where they came from, but William had an idea about their origin.
"These… These are materialisation monsters!!!" he slowly muttered, looking at Anjie for a long moment, "hurry, tell your father to order the armies… All of the fire and lava-based masters have to go to the frontline now!"
"What?!!"
She looked at him as if he lost it or something. She didn't believe that he just asked for the same masters she just heard they brought out a disaster at the frontlines.
"Just do it!" He gave her a serious look, one that told her he knew what he was doing.
The next moment he started to walk towards the front mountainous walls. He didn't aim to go toward the peaks, as the situation there wasn't as serious as the one at the valleys.
The mountain peaks had formations that exploded up there, but it was just enough to create gaps and cracks over there, nothing as serious as the monster army summoned at the valleys.
William recognised that nasty way to bring forth monsters. In fact, it wasn't an illusion or something, these were real monsters, brought here by some sort of a small version of Monster Gate.
But being small didn't mean it wasn't deadly. These monsters appeared in the heart of a special formation, one that could salvage the spirit power and even organs from the dead masters and monsters in an area, before adding all this up to the newly summoned monsters.
The masters watching all this didn't get any of this now. All they saw was a normal flood of monsters, coming towards them, in the middle of a slightly dense black fog.
