Capítulo 42: The Lone Swordsman

Fifty Spirit Stones.

Fifteen Spiritualists

One leader.

A hundred enemies.

These were the current elements in this battle. It was a struggle for survival, and Zhongcheng had to swiftly make a decision on what to do.

'The mission is a failure. The survival of my subordinates is my current priority!'

To do that, he would sacrifice thirty Spirit Stones to reinforce their defences. Fifteen more Spirit Stones would be used to stun and temporarily bind the Ice Monsters, granting them a window of opportunity to escape.

'Then, I'll use the remaining five Stones to destroy the Ice barrier, while using the remaining Mana I have to replace it with an Energy Barrier.'

That would slow the enemies down and discourage a chase.

'The passageway is narrow, so I don't think they'll pursue us beyond this place.'

Since that was the case, Zhongcheng was fairly confident in his plan.
