Binding System-Chapter 263 Dispel the Barrier Now!
Chapter 263 Dispel the Barrier Now!
'What?! All features are disabled during the war?'
Ace did not expect something like this to happen.
No!
It was not like he was afraid of death.
He needed his system because his system could save the citizens later.
It was meaningless to win a war if all the citizens died because a city would be nothing without the citizens.
'Is it because of the quest from the Goddess of War?'
He suddenly suspected it was because he accepted the quest from the Goddess of War.
When he accepted the quest from the God of Wind and God of Sea, his system still worked normally.
But a notification about all features being disabled popped up right after he accepted the quest from the Goddess of War.
'System, can you cancel the quest?'
He could not talk with the Goddess of War because many people were around him.
[Host, all features have been turned off, so you can't cancel the quest. Don't worry, Host. The possibility of you dying in this war is small.]
'It's not about me. It's about the citizens.'
As Ace was talking with his system, Pyria shouted at the citizens.
"Human, how dare you say something rude to my lord?" Pyria was furious because the citizens insulted her lord.
"Young lord, it's meaningless to talk to them. Let's just kill them!" like Pyria, Vianola was also enraged.
They were from the lowly human race, but they dared to insult her lord, a figure from the mighty dragon race.
She could not accept it. 𝗯𝐞𝗱𝗻𝐨𝘃𝐞𝐥.𝗻𝗲𝐭
She wanted to kill them!
No!
She desired to torture them because she wanted to show them the consequences of insulting their lord.
"I agreed, young lord. Let's just kill them." Eldrin added.
Dezmavas stared at his subordinates before finally speaking, "Destroy the barrier."
"Destroy the barrier!" Zelphar shouted.
*Auuuuu….
*Roar…
*Ckckck…
One thousand magical beasts rushed toward the barrier.
Their lord had given them an order, so they immediately tried to destroy the barrier.
Bang!
Bang!
They hit, bit, and kicked.
They did everything in order to destroy it, but the results were disappointing.
They failed to destroy the barrier!
Did they give up?
Of course not!
Their lord was watching them, so they tried their best to destroy the barrier again.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
These magical beasts were only at 1-star and 2-star, so they could not destroy the barrier.
"Hahaha."
"Come and hit again. Haha."
"Use your legs damn beast!"
"Use your hands too. Haha."
"Haha."
Some citizens laughed loudly when they saw the magical beasts struggling to destroy the barrier.
Unlike her people, Scarlett paid attention to the magical beasts carefully.
'My subordinates can handle them. Then what we should do next is…'
She shifted her gaze to Dezmavas and the 3-star magical beasts.
'We need to kill them quickly.'
She believed these magical beasts would leave immediately if Dezmavas and the 3-star magical beasts died.
"I will handle that dragon." Ace spoke abruptly.
He stopped asking his system to cancel the quest from the Goddess of War because he had accepted it before.
He would just try his best to kill Dezmavas quickly because that was the only way to protect his city and the citizens.
"Be careful." Scarlett uttered, "We will help you after we kill these 3-star magical beasts."
"Un." After nodding his head, Ace looked at Lexie, "Lady Lexie, please stay close to my underlings."
He could not stay close to her because he would fight Dezmavas later.
And it would be dangerous if she was dragged into their fight because she was only at Master rank.
"Alright." Lexie responded.
As Scarlett was talking with her people, Dezmavas chatted with his subordinates.
"That barrier is stronger than I thought." Even though his subordinates still had not succeeded in destroying the barrier, Dezmavas remained calm because he had a backup plan.
"Should we use it now, young lord?" Eldrin inquired.
"Yes." Right after Dezmavas responded, all magical beasts stopped attacking the barrier.
This made the citizens stunned.
"What's going on?"
"Why did they stop attacking the barrier?"
"Have they given up?"
"Isn't it too fast for them to give up?"
"I wonder what is going on?"
"Are they planning something?"
One by one, the citizens voiced out their curiosity.
Their curious expressions instantly turned into anger when they saw two hundred humans in cages.
"Bastard, how dare you put them in the cages!"
"Asshole, free them now!"
"Little dragon, free them now!"
"How dare you use a dirty method like that? Are you a man? I mean, are you a female dragon?"
"Little dragon, just cut off your little dick."
"Father…"
"Mother…"
"Elder sister…"
"Elder brother…"
"Younger sister…"
"Younger brother…"
"Uncle…"
"Auntie…"
Scarlett's subordinates. They are normal citizens, not awakeners.]
These hostages were taken from Nightshire City, so they knew all of [A/N= The people who have been shouting since earlier are not Scarlett's subordinates. They are normal citizens, not awakeners.]
These hostages were taken from Nightshire City, so they knew all of them.
Some of them even had family ties to the hostages. People related to the hostages immediately looked at Scarlett.
They wanted to save their families, but they did not voice out their wishes because they would put everyone in danger if they dispelled the barrier.
Scarlett gritted her teeth and clenched her fists.
'When did they take these hostages?'
Of course, she wanted to save them because they were her people.
However, she could not do that.
All she could do was watch them and suppress her anger.
Like Scarlett, her people were also furious.
However, they could only vent their anger by hitting the walls and looking at them with hateful eyes, nothing more than that.
Dezmavas' lips curled up into a grin.
'I like their expressions.'
They insulted him earlier, so he enjoyed seeing their expressions.
Dezmavas then looked at Vianola and uttered, "Do it."
"Get them out of the cages." Vianola shouted.
The magical beasts immediately took the hostages out of the cages. The hostages looked at these magical beasts with frightened faces.
Even though Dezmavas had only locked them up for a few days, but his subordinates had already beaten them several times.
Vianola even put ball chains on their legs and arms, preventing them from moving freely and easily.
That was the reason why they were frightened because they thought they would get beaten up again.
"Move! Move! Move faster!" Zorg and his brothers kicked the hostages, telling them to walk toward the barrier.
The hostages only looked at the ogres and magical beasts before finally walking toward the barrier.
Of course, they could not walk fast because Vianola had put ball chains on their legs and arms.
*Zrrttst…Srtt…
The sound of balls being dragged on the ground echoed in their ears.
At that moment, every hostage was followed by two 2-star magical beasts. All of them kept showing their fangs as if they were ready to eat the hostages.
The citizens of Nightshire City were about to explode with rage.
They hated it because these magical beasts treated the hostages cruelly, especially when they kicked the hostages for not walking fast.
"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!" Josh, the leader of the non-awakener group, cursed venomously.
"Human, I want you to dispel the barrier now. Otherwise, we will kill the hostages one by one in front of you." Dezmavas uttered.
Scarlett clenched her fist.
'What should I do now?'
