Chapter 405 The Sickle Formation
The enormous stone door rose slowly.
“This can’t be real. You know you could’ve just told me, Mr. Stewart Senior!” Caspian couldn’t help but curse.
“Aren’t you the almighty Caspian? I guess you still need my guidance, after all!” Xandros teased.
Caspian was speechless. Xandros was really a cunning old man.
“Let’s hurry. We’d better not waste more time,” Xandros said as he turned around, getting ready to enter the tomb.
The expert martial artists were all stunned that the tomb’s door opened so easily.
Hundreds of people had just died!
Everyone gaped at Xandros.
Indeed, he knew a lot about the tomb. Whoever was to follow him would be sure to have a smooth journey,
“Hurry! Don’t let them get it before we do!” Nixon exclaimed.
“That’s right! Let’s go, everyone! The Eldorian Scroll fragment is in there! We must seize the opportunity!” Gilbert cried out.
With the tomb door opened, whoever was to be the first one to enter would be the one to obtain the Eldorian Scroll fragment.
“Let’s go! We mustn’t let Caspian get it first!”
“Charge!”
The clamor reverberated in all directions as countless expert martial artists rushed forward.
However, the TMAA, Shadow Gate, and Jyn did not join them.
Gilbert and Nixon had a smug look on their faces.
They had conspired for these expert martial artists to be the first line of defense against Caspian.
When Caspian saw them charging toward him, his eyes were ablaze.
“Ungrateful bastards! I gave you a chance, but you’re trying to snatch the fragment from me

Then, he ordered Sylvia who was behind him, “Sylvia! Destroy them! Give them a taste of our wrath!”
“Yes, Caspian!” Sylvia’s face darkened as she rushed out with a hundred armored soldiers.
Even though there were only a hundred of them
their menacing energy was overwhelming!
These brave and skilled armored soldiers were about to show their true strength.
Before anyone could even react, the armored soldiers had already progressed to the frontline, killing everyone in their paths.
Suddenly, there was a glaring flash.
None of the armored soldiers flinched.
They were up against tens of thousands of expert martial artists.
Nonetheless, Sylvia remained unnerved. Her expression remained eerily calm.
They had been through many battles before. No danger could ever frighten them!
Only battles could make them zealous!
Aster and Avery exchanged glances.
“Should we join them?” Aster asked.
Even though they were also eternal grandmasters, they had to be careful when going up against the expert martial artists. If they were to act recklessly, they would die.
Sylvia and her team’s valor was astonishing.
“Of course, we have to! Let’s fight till the end!” Avery said through gritted teeth.
She was in the lead, and Aster followed closely behind.
Now that they were working under Caspian, they had to obey his orders.
“Hey kid, can’t you take it down a notch? Why do you insist on going all out? There are tens and thousands of expert martial artists.
“What will you do if your men are killed?” Xandros asked in a concerned tone.
Caspian’s men were brave and not afraid of dying.
But the expert martial artists were also not easy opponents!
Caspian had never considered this matter before; there was no need for him to.
He was not concerned about the armored soldiers‘ abilities.
+15 BONUS
“Mr. Stewart Senior, just sit back and watch. I believe in my men!” Caspian answered confidently.
He looked at the battlefield. There was not an ounce of concern on his face.
The armored soldiers had fought with him for many years. They had been through life and death.
There were many times when they had saved the day!
There were also numerous battles where they covered the road with the blood of their enemies!
In the beginning, Caspian once led 5,000 armored soldiers into the enemy’s lair and fought against more than 300,000 enemy troops.
These 5,000 armored soldiers went in and killed the enemy’s troops, throwing them into disarray.
In the end, tens of thousands of enemy soldiers were obliterated.
This was how powerful these armored soldiers were!
Xandros was puzzled as to why Caspian was so sure of himself.
Were these armored soldiers really that powerful?
The expert martial artists felt humiliated.
There were thousands of them while Sylvia was going up against them with a hundred soldiers.
“Kill them all! Let’s show Caspian that we expert martial artists are not weak!”
“Yeah! Let’s fight back against him!”
Many expert martial artists were indignant.
They had been wanting to get back at Caspian for a long time.
If it were not for the Eldorian Scroll fragment, they would have already besieged him.
Now that there were only hundreds of men on Caspian’s side, they felt like it was a golden. opportunity for them.
They must get rid of Caspian today.
They wanted to let Caspian pay the price for his arrogance.
“Kill them!”
+15 BONUS
Thousands of expert martial artists swarmed in on Caspian’s team.
“What a bunch of ignorant fools! Numbers don’t mean anything!”
“Into formation!” Sylvia shouted.
Hundreds of armored soldiers got into a strange formation that resembled a sword.
“Kill them!” the armored soldiers shouted in unison.
Their roars could be felt from all directions!
In the blink of an eye, the armored guards were engulfed by the expert martial artists.
Gilbert and Nixon had a smug look on their faces.
This time, Caspian would surely die.
As long as Caspian died, their chances of snatching the Eldorian Scroll fragment would increase.
Loud bangs were heard.
Screams came and went.
The shouts continued.
The battle between both sides quickly reached a fever pitch.
Sylvia and the rest were going all out.
With every swing of their swords, a head fell to the floor!
The hundreds of armored soldiers were like killing machines. They were all fearless!
Aster and Avery, who were following behind, were extremely shocked.
These hundred armored soldiers were unstoppable.
It was as if they had combined all their strengths.
The thousands of expert martial artists were all strong. However, they were no match for the armored soldiers.
“This is the Sickle Formation!” Aster and Avery suddenly shouted.
They had some insight and recognized the formation of the armored soldiers.
This kind of formation was a unique formation within the military.
Aster and Avery looked at each other with a surprised look on their faces.
What was Caspian’s real identity?
+15 BONUS
They could not comprehend it. They rushed out as well.
The entire Mount Evercloud had become a purgatory on earth.
Rivers of blood flowed, and broken limbs were scattered all over the place.
Nixon and Gilbert were stupefied.
“How can this be!” Nixon could not believe his eyes.
Thousands of expert martial artists were no match for these armored soldiers?
Gilbert was extremely resentful.
He had planned to make use of the expert martial artists to kill Caspian.
But they could not even lay a finger on Caspian at all.
On the other hand, Caspian’s men alone had easily subdued them.
“What a bunch of useless trash!” Gilbert murmured angrily.
Caspian was too powerful. He must be killed today. Otherwise, he would become the biggest threat to Shadow Gate.
On the other hand, Jyn had a completely different set of emotions when watching the scene before her. She was emotional as she watched Caspian’s men battle with valor.
“As expected of the man of my dreams. Even his men are all so courageous and good at fighting!” Jyn murmured.
Her tender and loving gaze fell upon Caspian.
Her feelings for him grew even stronger.
