Astartes of the Bear School

Chapter 2017, 1989: Witness!

Lan En's voice was neither too loud nor too soft at this chaotic juncture.

Just a second ago, the sharp sound of dozens of arms and the Lake Maiden's sword slicing through the air during his duel with Gefia had not yet subsided.

The next second, as Rakad tried to break free from the group of Faded Ones, he threw the vengeful skulls behind him without looking back, and the explosion in the lava lake caused a deafening roar.

In the midst of the chaos, the witcher's shout was actually not particularly captivating, failing to draw everyone's attention.

The problem is that those who want to hear this can usually hear it amidst a deafening roar of noise.

Laqad darted around at lightning speed, clearly having fared poorly against the group of Faded Ones.

The power and glory of demigods are beyond question, and they are blessed by the Golden Law within the Golden Dynasty.

However, Raccard's fighting style is characterized by large-scale, large-scale magic, which is certainly very useful and crucial in legion wars.

When a group of faded warriors suddenly appeared, taking advantage of the chaos in the army formation and the lack of obstruction, they directly parachuted down from the city wall to his side using perfumed crossbow bolts. This method of mass destruction was really not advantageous.

All the Faded Ones except Lann, as well as the Ancient Dragon Knight Christopher, went to cause trouble for Larcad. After the War of the Giants, he was the first person to have such a presence.

It's no exaggeration to say that the Black Knife Assassin Group that tried to assassinate Godwin, aside from the advanced stealth effect achieved using the technology of the Eternal City underground, was no match for the current Faded Ones group in terms of combat power—they would be easily defeated!
The enemy that Lakad faced was far more extraordinary than Godwin's on the night of the Black Knife!

And this chief justice of the volcano's residence was clearly not the type to fight to the death.

He was unharmed, only his clothes were tattered. Anyone with eyes could see that this was the result of a swift and decisive retreat after the battle had turned against them.

Rakad wasn't known for his fighting skills among the demigods, so he readily admitted defeat and turned to flee.

At this moment, the Grand Justice, still wielding his Golden Sword, swept across the lava lake like a black gust of wind.

Hearing Lan En's shout, he didn't hesitate at all, but focused even more on escaping.

The tide has turned, and those who still have ambition and perseverance will mostly make the same choices under these circumstances.

Griffith was determined to return to Nymgford and rebuild his strength.

Lakad, on the other hand, was focused on preserving himself and returning to Mount Gemir. Although the volcano's official residence had far less war potential to be explored and developed than Nymgford, his brother did!

Laqad was waiting for his brother to return to Rodel with a large army, which would be his chance to make a comeback.

With this feeling, although Laqad also felt sorry for the legions that were buried beneath the walls of Rodel, he immediately turned and fled to avoid losing them all.

But this is just Lakad's idea.

Meanwhile, the person who heard Lann's words even more clearly and deeply than Lacard was Gevya!
Traitor! Sinner! Filthy viper!
In just a moment, upon hearing Lann's shout of "Run!", countless curses and swears immediately surfaced in Ge Fuya's mind!
Traitors are more hateful than enemies.

This is the way of the world.

Furthermore, Gefuya was already on the verge of collapse due to the series of suppressions Lan En had previously exerted.

It was only through a morbid obsession that the rhythm of the battle was brought back to normal.

His morbid obsession stabilized his mind, but at the same time, it was like a trigger bomb, ready to explode at any moment!
And clearly, this 'traitor' Rakad brazenly rushed in front of him, and even Lann, the Faded One who had just made him feel so miserable and on the verge of collapse, made way for him... This made Gevya explode immediately!

Right in front of Lan En, a crisp 'crack' sound came from Ge Fuya's tightly pursed lips!

He literally bit his teeth until they shattered!
In fact, if Ge Fuya were to view the current situation with a calm mind, he would immediately discover many suspicious points.

For example, if Lakad is a traitor to the demigod alliance, then he is an accomplice of Rhodel. Now that Rhodel has a complete advantage on the battlefield, why is his accomplice running away? Who is chasing him?

Unfortunately, this kind of organized thinking can only be established when a person is still normal.

The demigods of the Golden Dynasty were also human, and their individual personality traits were even more distinct and vastly different than those of ordinary people.

Since Lan En dared to interrupt his own suppression rhythm even after seeing through Ge Fuya's 'power-accumulation mechanism', he was practically giving Ge Fuya some free time.

He had already figured it out in advance: Ge Fuya's mentality and mental state had been pushed to an abnormal level by him!

He certainly couldn't make a rational doubt or judgment at this critical juncture, in this short period of time.

Now, Lann, who had withdrawn to 'make way,' and Rakad, who was fleeing at top speed, were positioned on either side of Gevya. Yes, Lann had indeed stopped his technical suppression of Gevya, giving him a moment to charge up his attack. But... who would he target with this clearly not-so-simple charged attack?

Ge Fuya's white hair was disheveled, and even the golden headband on his head could not hold it down. He looked more like a disheartened and dejected ghost than a demigod of the Golden Dynasty.

At that moment, Ge Fuya suddenly felt that he understood.

From the moment he failed to immediately recognize reality and retreat from the lava, instead thinking himself powerful and wanting to take revenge when Lan En came looking for him, he probably wouldn't have been able to escape.

Reality is heavy and cruel, leaving no room for 'what if' or 'what if'.

Having come to terms with reality, Ge Fuya also realized one thing: he still had a chance for revenge!

To make way for that despicable traitor, Lan En gave him an opportunity! A chance to strike with only one blow!

But who should have this opportunity?
Is he a faded person who constantly suppresses himself and even seizes his own son?
still……?
Well, this matter didn't make Ge Fuya hesitate for even a second!
"My brother! The glory of my blood!" Just as Laqad was about to rush past, Griffia raised the dragon head in his left hand, pointing it in this direction without hesitation, and shouted in a high-pitched voice, "Come! Be the witness!"

In the moment he realized his impending doom, Griffith finally discovered that what he had always cared about was the figure of his great brother.

The dragon's mouth opened wide, and flames blazed from its throat!
On the other side of Griffia, Lan En calmly watched this scene that he had already anticipated.

After fully accumulating power, the flames spewed from the young dragon's head were even more magnificent than when Lan En was first attacked head-on!
It's hard to imagine that a huge torrent of dragon fire, almost like a waterfall of fire, could spew out from the mouth of a young dragon!
"Get out of the way!"

However, Laqad clearly didn't care about the wave of flames coming from his side; he didn't even bother to look back.

After all, from the very beginning, what he valued most was the legal right of succession and the title of Gefia, not his power.

They even need to use limb extension techniques to make themselves look deformed in order to maintain the majesty of a demigod. What power do they have left to be respected?
Besides, what's so great about a wave of fire?

The lava lake they are standing on now stretches for more than ten kilometers beyond the walls of Rodel!
He blasted it out!
Ge Fuya attached a dragon head to his hand and spewed out a pitiful amount of dragon fire, thinking he was something special...?!
"Ahhhh!!!"

Lakad thought this way, so he didn't even bother to block the flames. He didn't think that the dragon flames spewed from such a small dragon head could do anything to him, and probably wouldn't even curl his hair.

But when the flames actually reached him, the fleeing Grand Justice was immediately engulfed in them and suddenly burst into a furious and painful roar!

Without a doubt, he experienced the same feeling Lan En had when he was first hit by Griffia's charged dragon flame.

That even burned through the [body light], demonstrating extremely high power at the level of a certain rank!

Rakad's proud demigod body and profound magical and sorcery powers posed no obstacle whatsoever to this charged dragon flame!

Strictly speaking, Rajard's methods are not as complete or powerful as Lann's.

Amidst screams, Lakad's body, propelled by the momentum of his previous frantic escape, remained within the flames of Gofia for less than half a second before bursting out, still wreathed in burning tail flames.

He rolled around, even trying to extinguish the dragon flames on his body with the lava lake he had previously created.

He had just looked down on the dragon flame that came from the head of the young dragon.

But Lan En understood that feeling very well, and had even analyzed it.

This direct breakthrough of all preparations and defenses, causing pain directly to the victim, has nothing to do with dragon flames.

That dragon flame was indeed only at the juvenile dragon level. What was special was that Griffia's 'power-accumulation mechanism', which seemed to have come from nowhere, granted the dragon flame its power.

And Laqad is indeed a ruthless person.

After rolling around in the lava, the young dragon's dragonfire immediately died down, but the pain remained excruciating. The Grand Judge, however, continued screaming as he dug through the lava and fled again at breakneck speed.

"Ah! Gavya! Rodel! Just wait! Just wait! The lava of Gmir will engulf you! Falling stars will crush you!"

"Just keep looking at that portrait of your banished brother! That day is not far off! It's not far off!"

When Rakad fled earlier, he was only ragged and unharmed. But after rolling around in Griffia's dragonfire, he was almost completely mangled!

His skin melted, most of it falling into the lava, while a small portion fused with his muscles, a sight that was both gruesome and disgusting.

The piercing, resentful screams also stemmed from this.
