Ascension of the Nephilim-Chapter 340 Becoming A Major Power

The defeat of Bastark caused everyone to watch in shock.

Viscount Stephen, who had stood next to Martha, was also horrified at what he saw. Among everyone who looked, he was the closest and saw the fight. After defeating it, Hunter simply went back to his position.

"Lord Branze. I followed your theoretical application of 'nailing'. The attack wouldn't push through, but the enemy's force was too weak, and I had the speed to keep nailing on the attack to affect him."

"Yeah, you nailed it." Branze smiled.

Viscount Stephen began to tremble. That man referred to Branze as 'lord'.

His body began to tremble.

He noticed that not one of the Steele family reacted, cheered, or was amazed by the scene.

And that brought a seed of doubt.

Why were they not scared of the Champions?

Stephen felt that while he could not prove the strength of these people, he still felt there was something abnormal about them!

The roars of the Char Vermillion Lizards could be heard. The ground began to rumble from the charging force of the team.

"Brings back a lot of memories, right, Hunter?" Kyros laughed.

"Yes. It's been a little over a month since that day... But it feels like it's been ages!" Hunter smiled as he drew his sword.

The Steele family didn't just stand their ground. They were slowly headed towards the opening of the cave.

"Since we've already shown our powers, let's not be too showy, but let's not be low-key. In short, let's have some fun!" Kyros laughed.

"They're moving forward?" The Champions was confused. The place where they stood would put them at the front of the charge, but it was near enough for the other groups to support them at the back. Moving any further would not only cause the Steele family to be surrounded by the enemy, but they would be outside of the range where the mages and archers could shoot accurately.

"Wait! Why- Why are we moving forward?!" The Viscount who rushed forward was being pushed by the soldiers behind.

"Have some backbone, Viscount! It's just a little lizard!"

"ROAR!" The roars were heard, and the Viscount was getting nervous.

"Aren't their roars much stronger? This sounds different than the ones we fought and killed. And we killed a nest of them!" Branze asked Reptilia.

"Those were the weakest breed. The Char Vermillion Lizards that lived here were from the outcast prince. The ones that are in the northern regions are the stronger ones. These ones don't even have food."

"Ah.. That explains it..."

CRASH!

The Char Vermillion Lizards appeared. The level of strength was clearly stronger as they were larger than the ones that they fought.

"So the ones in the caves were where the weaker ones... I sense a strong power approaching. It's as strong as a Champion..."

"This should be fun!" Branze readied his shield actively.

"Is my husband going to break Kyros's orders and show off for a bit?"

"He'll understand. I need to keep all the simps in line..." Branze charged forward.

The lizards charged out, breaking the sides of the passageway and were enlarging it.

Unlike before, the lizards were now intent on destroying the human base after all the lies that Kyros had set and how he had forced the entire lizard army to launch an attack. ƒr𝙚𝙚𝘸e𝚋𝐧૦ѵ𝒆𝒍.𝒄𝒐m

The powers of lizards at the front were the strongest, and even the Champions frowned at the vanguard that attacked.

"This is bad! Even our Viscounts would die in this battle! We face a wipeout if we are not careful!" Ordeus frowned and began to hope that Champion Drake Vestitude would arrive as soon as possible.

But then Branze ran forward and raised his shield.

"He's crazy!" A Champion exclaimed as he saw Branze break away from the formation to fight.

"Let's see how strong I am..." Branze wondered. He knew he felt weak, but he was curious about how weak he was.

"Force Wall!"

BOOM!

The entire row of lizards met something strong and was pushed back.

A massive Wall surrounded the area, and Branze had a pained expression.

"Force Wall?!" Stephen exclaimed in horror. The Force wall was too exaggerated! The charge had to be at least at Champion level, and the walls needed to defend against it should also be like that!

"Ugh... I nearly gave way. I can't handle a Champion. Pathetic." Branze sighed.

The sudden pause was enough, and the Steele family charged forward.

Viscount Stephen was caught in the sudden push.

"What the?!"

"Idiot! Attack!" A soldier behind him shoved him, and he moved in his confusion.

The wall vanished, and the lizards lost balance just in time for the Steele family to begin their attack.

SLASH! STAB! CRASH!

The attacks of everyone in the front line immediately killed a lizard. All but the Viscount who was caught up and was not synchronized from the attack. His attack only wounded the Char Lizard as his sword barely stabbed through. But the soldier behind him had slashed the head of the Char Lizard and made a wound on the neck, causing it to stagger.

Stephen quickly tried to pull his sword, but Diana slashed and killed the lizard in front of him.

"Don't be a burden to my Steele Family." Diana frowned.

Everyone who was watching how the Steele fought was stunned at the shocking combos of those who attacked.

Everyone in the front-line, aside from Stephen, killed their enemy with a single blow. But what was shocking was those at the back. They had reorganized themselves in the charge, and as they faced the enemy, the one on the front would do a charge, and those at the back would charge on it or punch on the hilt of the sword nailing that attack even further!

The first row of lizards died immediately, and their bodies suddenly vanished!

The immediate disappearance startled those at the back as the team of Kyros charged with speed and delivered another critical attack and killed some more on the second row. Some did not die but received grievous wounds.

"Retreat!" Mezal ordered, and the team took a step back and went on the defense.

The lizards fell in disarray at the sudden disappearances of some of lizards.

"Where?!"

"Is it the Golems?!" One of the Champions asked. They had experimented on the place and noted that the ground near the city could consume slain enemies.

Slowly, more golems began to form.

"It really is the Golem!"

"It seems that the Steele family has already created a warfare with their experience of fighting here..." A Champion noted.

The lizards charged ahead, but another wall struck them right before their attack reached. But the wall appeared and vanished almost instantly as if it was broken.

"Tsk..." Diana cursed. Her wall was broken.

But the invisible wall was yet exploited as the Steele Family charged once more.

The soldier behind Stephen was so annoyed that he tackled and pushed him down.

"I'll take the front, you idiot! You're breaking our ranks!" The soldier kicked and stepped on Stephen as he attacked the lizard.

Those behind him also began to step on the Viscount.

The two forces began to clash, but Steele had the advantage.

There the full force of the Steele could be seen.

"The strongest one is still Mezal with his amazing Trinity Sword. That is the legacy sword of the Steele, if I'm not mistaken. But their forces... they are all practically Captains in strength!" One of the Champions frowned.

"Is that what shocked you? True that Branze doesn't have the deadly attacks that Mezal has, but his Wall! It stopped the charge! He's even better than Lady Diana! And Lady Diana's Wall matches the Champions Force Wall! What's going on? How did they become so strong?!"

"Their forces aren't a joke either. It's organized, disciplined, and terrifying!" One of the soldiers shouted.

"Why is that night throwing down his pants?" Ordeus asked Demerus.

Demerus sighed and shrugged his shoulders.

Viscount Stephen continued to get trampled. Every time he moved his arm or head, it would get stepped on.

"Hey, idiot! Get out of there!"

"Hey! Stand up! Why are you lying there?!"

"Oh no! I urinated!"

Footsteps and pungent water rained downed on Viscount Stephen, and he began to cry.

"Kick this stupid Viscount out! He's messing with our formation!"

"Right!"

KICK! KICK! KICK!

"Guys! I urinated too!"

Eventually, Viscount Stephen was rolling out of the ranks of Steele. He had blood and many wounds that he couldn't move, and he smelled bad.

The father of the Viscount raged.

"That Steele family!" The old man began to charge when...

POW!

"Are you an idiot?!" The Champion he severed punched him.

"Don't you dare attack them! Can't you see?! I don't care what grudge you had with them or with the family of Mezal! Regardless of the Orlando clan's crimes before, they are the Steele now! And they are a major power in the Lowlands!" The Champion roared.

"What?! A Major power?!"

"You are a Captain, so you can't feel it! But just now..." The Knight Champion turned back.

"They have seven Champions fighting! Seven! That's a number none in the Lowlands can deal with! And Aron Steele, the genius swordsman, is not even there! So they may have eight! Who knows? They might have more!" The Champion exclaimed.

At that moment, the Viscounts all looked at their Generals and noticed it.

In the heat of the battle, Kyros, Mezal, Branze, Diana, Gojirrah, Reptilia, and Hunter were all fighting with tremendous force energy.

Ordeus turned to the Emberdons...

"Champion Demerus. What happened? Tell me honestly, what are the details of your alliance with the Steele family?" Then, seeing the full power of Steele, Ordeus asked Demerus.
