The broadcast had done its job, drawing the blackguards away from Richard. Erik now, though, has a far more pressing and lethal problem.

A queue of at least a hundred blackguards stood in his way of the northern gate. Erik was pumping mana through his neural links and using his Force Bastion brain crystal power to keep his speed and defense on par with the number of enemies in front of him.

The first wave of blackguards kept firing at him with brain-crystal rifles. Erik charged them. This kind of fight was almost the same every time it happened, to the point that Erik started feeling embarrassed on the blackguards' behalf.
