BXBX NOVEL Chapter 218: Chapter218-What Are Their Identities?
The gap between them was like heaven and earth!
Moreover, what they were facing now was a full-powered strike in the wrath of a semigod-tier!
It was simply beyond their capacity to withstand!
As the huge white orb of light neared the protective shield, everyone gritted their teeth, some even closing their eyes, unable to watch.
John's mind raced.
What to do? What could he possibly do?!
Even now, possessing 50% of the power of control, able to grant some beneficial buffs to their side, it was merely a buff!
Such enhancements might make the strong stronger, but for them, who were inherently weak, it was merely a slight improvement, hardly enough.
No matter how much they buffed, they couldn't possibly stand a fight against a semigod-tier powerhouse!
John's hands trembled slightly, he was prepared to give it his all.
But the next second…
"Ah…"
Suddenly, a wave of floral fragrance filled the air, relaxing the tense nerves of everyone at that moment.
At the same time, John heard a faint sigh, followed by the sound of plants growing rapidly nearby!
The forest in the distance also began to grow wildly at a visibly frantic pace!
All the plants at that moment transformed into shields, positioning themselves in front of the protective barrier!
Boom!
The massive energy collided with the plants, exploding into ashes in an instant!
But quickly, countless plants from the distant forest grew wildly again!
These plants, though continually vanishing, were also incessantly growing, as if they had reached an infinite loop at that moment.
Everyone watched in amazement at the scene unfolding before them, some in disbelief at the figure standing next to John.
That beautiful, angel-like elf!
Abby!
Their healer!
"How can this be?"
Archibald exclaimed in surprise, looking at Abby beside him.
She was just their healer, who had always stayed inside the healing room and had never appeared before.
Although John had mentioned that the floral scent in the healing room helped stabilize emotions and enhance mind power,
later on, there simply hadn't been enough time to consider it.
Unexpectedly, Abby had shown up here to assist them, and it seemed she was incredibly powerful!
Who exactly is Abby?!
Is she really just an NPC?!
If that's the case, then why does this NPC possess the power to battle a semigod-tier powerhouse?
What is going on here!
Everyone was dumbstruck as they gazed at the elf, whose beauty seemed beyond that of mere mortals.
They had always thought she was just an NPC within the fortress, exceptionally beautiful.
Both men and women liked to visit the medical room when tired.
Firstly, to restore their mind power, and secondly because the sight of this beautiful individual was indeed very pleasing to the eye.
Her beauty transcended gender!
Some even joked that once they left, they would commission a robot customized to look just like Abby—so beautiful!
But they never imagined that the elf, who in their eyes was merely a decorative piece capable of casting a Resurrection Spell, now possessed such formidable power!
To withstand a furious strike from a semigod-tier powerhouse!
Such power... was truly terrifying!
Could it be that Abby was also a semigod-tier powerhouse?
Alastair was already seething with anger, intent on having everyone perish immediately, but unexpectedly, there was someone able to withstand his attack!
To him, the protective shield was nothing but rubbish, something that would surely break under sufficient force.
But now, this unexpected turn of events made him feel as though he was being mocked.
"Where did this rubbish come from? Daring to block my way, then all of you go die!"
Alastair, looking at the stunningly beautiful elf who seemed almost unreal, shouted in rage, and then once again exerted all his strength!
For a semigod-tier powerhouse, all skills are as naught.
Their attacks are but the purest form of power.
Even the simplest fireball and windblade could annihilate everyone!
John watched as the trees seemed to grow endlessly, while Abby's complexion visibly paled.
Abby's skin was already fair, the kind that was crystal clear, but now it turned deathly pale!
He knew they couldn't continue like this.
Although Abby was willing to help them, her capabilities were uncertain, and it was unknown how much longer she could hold on.
"What are you waiting for? Attack!"
John shouted, then rapidly released his skills towards the outside.
The others, initially stunned, also began frantically casting their abilities outward.
They all knew their own skills were minute in comparison.
Against such a powerhouse, they were practically nothing.
But what if?
What if their combined efforts were just what was needed?
What if their contributions were enough to drive this person away?
Then they would truly have no chance for regret if they didn't try.
No matter what, they had to persevere, they had to fight for a chance.
Even if the outcome was unbearable, they had to keep going!
Only by persisting could they achieve everything they desired.
A sapling mark between Abby's eyebrows was slowly glowing.
However, everyone was horrified to discover that the rate of the trees' growth could no longer keep up with their destruction!
They could even see the protective shield rippling once more!
This meant that the trees could no longer withstand the aftermath of the attacks!
No!
Absolutely not!
This couldn't continue!
"How are things on your side? We've completely cleared out the minions here."
Isabella, who had been clearing out the lesser monsters, had been keeping an eye on the situation at the first fortress.
They were facing a semigod-tier powerhouse!
The enormity of the threat was overwhelming, but after finishing their cleanup, she mustered the courage to inquire about John's situation.
John had no time to reply as he was forcefully unleashing his skills outward.
"Don't worry, just hold on a little longer, we're coming over right now!"
Cecilia bit her lip and sent this message.
She was very aware that going there now was akin to marching to their deaths, but they couldn't just sit back and wait to perish!
If the first fortress fell, the second and third fortresses would be next.
Their fates were interlinked; if John's side couldn't hold, then the rest of them were headed straight for disaster!
So, no matter what, they had to hold on!
Even if the path was exceedingly difficult, they had to keep going.
"No."
John managed to send back a brief reply in between his actions.
Then he desperately threw his skills outside, completely disregarding his own mana.
Now, they could only withstand what was to come by using every ounce of their strongest efforts.
They weren't facing just monsters or a wave of magical beasts.
They were up against a semigod-tier powerhouse—an opponent they simply could not defeat.
Even if Isabella and Cecilia's people all came over, what then?
It would only lead to more casualties.
So it was better to have them stay put inside the fortress and manage themselves; he would handle everything else.
Both women saw the few messages and grew even more anxious.
They knew John must be facing extremely difficult circumstances, otherwise he wouldn't be sending such incomplete messages.
But there was nothing they could do!
They could only wait here.
Wait for the right moment!
Meanwhile, at the first fortress, Abby was nearing her limit.
The growth rate of the green trees was slowing down more and more.
