Chapter 416 Eldorian Scroll Fragment Retrieved
Fabian felt unprecedented danger creeping up his back as he became drenched in his own
sweat.
Gilbert, however, immediately calmed down. “Forget it, I won’t blame you for something no one expected.”
Killing Fabian now would just be throwing away resources for no good reason and rendering
himself alone.
Fabian politely expressed his gratitude, “Thank you, Mr. Shane!”
Horace and his men, who were about to rush over to the coffin, immediately halted their steps.
They were both horrified by the gruesome deaths and thankful that they were slower.
They would have joined the Shadow Gate members in a painful death otherwise.
Everyone present felt a chill down their spine as they watched the skin on the perished Shadow Gate men decay at a rapid pace.
Nob*dy knew if there were more traps to come from within the coffin itself.
Nixon turned to Caspian and shouted, “Caspian!”
Gilbert was furious as well. “I’ll kill you once you retrieve the Eldorian Scroll fragment, Caspian!
Caspian had been standing still at the side while everyone tried to get their hands on the scroll fragment.
It was obvious that Caspian knew about the traps hiding within the coffin.
And yet in the next moment, Caspian took a step forward and lunged toward the coffin.
His speed caught everyone by surprise as they couldn’t even react by the time he had reached
the coffin.
Everyone was confused as they wondered if Caspian had lost his mind to be diving headfirst
into a trap.
“Shit! We were tricked!” shouted Gilbert.
“That fucker! This means that there are no more traps left! Get him!” shouted Nixon.
Caspian had Xandros guiding him throughout the tomb the entire time.
The fact that he willingly approached the coffin was proof that it was now safe.
+15 BONUS
Casplan reached the coffin in an instant.
He found a corpse lying inside. It looked no different from a living but sleeping person.
The b*dy showed no signs of decay, and its skin remained plump with hints of blood flow.
Caspian was startled by the sight. He had heard rumors that truly powerful individuals could reach a state where their deceased bodies wouldn’t decay at all.
He could only wonder just how powerful was the Stewart family’s ancestor lying inside the coffin before him.
Two scrolls that seemed to be made of sheepskin were placed on both sides of the corpse.
Caspian wasn’t certain about what the scrolls were made out of, but he knew for certain that they were the Eldorian Scroll fragment and the Eight Extreme Fist manuscript.
Heither of these scrolls were to fall into the wrong hands, the consequences could shake up the entirety of Diatoran
Even the Diatoranian God of War was shocked by what he was seeing
No one else knew better than Caspian about the benefits one could acquire through an Eldorian Scroll fragment
He had stumbled across one of the scroll fragments by chance and risen through the ranks from a mere soldier into the Diatoranian God of War himself. He became invincible and unmatched in combat as he led his troops to victory.
He could only imagine how much more he could achieve now that he had his hands on another scroll fragment.
Xandros shouted at the dumbfounded Caspian, “What are you gawking at, Caspian? Let’s go!”
Caspian finally snapped back to his senses as he retrieved both scrolls out of the coffin.
“f**k! We were tricked!”
“Caspian got the scroll fragment!”
Both Gilbert and Nixon were furious. “Go and snatch the scroll from him!”
“We can’t let Caspian get away with the Eldorian Scroll fragment!”
Everyone rushed toward Caspian as they all wanted the Eldorian Scroll fragment for themselves as well.
“Put the scrolls down, Caspian. Or you won’t make it out of here alive!” declared Gilbert.
Caspian smiled as he stuffed both scrolls into his clothes. “Come and get them if you can!”
“Kill him!“!
+15 BONUS
Gilbert and his men furiously stared at Caspian as he put the scrolls away.
They had been tricked by Caspian to scout the way ahead for him.
Everyone readied their weapons and rushed toward Caspian.
“Protect Caspian! Kill them all!”
Sylvia waved her hand, and hundreds of armored soldiers rushed forward to meet the people
of the TMAA in battle.
Battle cries filled the tomb once more as the two forces clashed against each other.
Both Gilbert and Nixon went directly after Caspian. “Give me the scrolls, Caspian!”
They had sacrificed so much and came so far just for the Eldorian Scroll fragment. They were furious that Caspian managed to get ahold of the treasure before they could.
Caspian stood still with his arms crossed. “Show me what you got!”
Gilbert and Nixon were startled and subconsciously took a few steps back as Caspian emanåted
immense pressure.
The two of them nodded at each other before lunging toward their target once more with all
their remaining strength.
Caspian smiled at the both of them. “Useless!”
He launched two powerful blows, each of his fists aimed at Nixon’s and Gilbert’s faces. respectively.
The two of them saw the attack coming, but it was too late to dodge.
Caspian never took on a stance before throwing his punches, but it was still a powerful attack that was shaped by his countless battle experiences.
His plain fists alone held immense pow
power.
Caspian’s fists grew larger and larger within Nixon’s and Gilbert’s field of vision.
Two thuds could be heard as the punches finally connected to their targets.
Both Gilbert and Nixon were sent flying backward while Caspian stood still in the same spot.
The pressure emanating from Caspian was suffocating.
Not even powerful fighters like Gilbert and Nixon could stand a chance against Caspian as their attacks seemed powerless before him.
“How is this possible?”
Gilbert was dumbfounded as Caspian’s punch had sent him flying 30 feet away.
+15 BONUS
He had to use up all his strength to prevent himself from flying farther away. He subsequently. coughed out a mouthful of blood.
Gilbert couldn’t believe that even after joining forces with Nixon, they still weren’t a match for Caspian.
Could Caspian truly be above even a supreme grandmaster?
Gilbert was terrified by his own thoughts.
The only man powerful enough to match a supreme grandmaster in strength within Shadow Gate was Elijah himself.
Nixon seemed even worse in comparison as he was already inferior to Gilbert in the first place.
He couldn’t withstand Caspian’s punch due to all the injuries he had accumulated up to this point.
He was sent flying all the way into the wall.
Nixon turned pale white as he coughed out several mouthfuls of blood.
He felt extremely weak, as if his internal organs had been shattered by Caspian’s attack.
He had completely lost any remaining strength to resume fighting.
Nixon had mentally surrendered.
He no longer felt fear or surprise. However, a deep weight of his own inferiority overwhelmed
him.
His only thought now was to escape from this place.
It was too unrealistic to retrieve the Eldorian Scroll fragment from the monster that was Caspian.
Continuing to struggle would only end up with him being killed by Caspian himself.
He could always escape and live to see another day instead of blindly burning away his remaining chance at life.
