章節 2893: Full Power (Part 1)

'I would risk it all, if I was certain of victory, but I'm not. My best shot would be activating the Prime Engine but again, it's not enough to win, only to buy a bit more time. Even worse, it would betray the existence of the tower and at that point, my life would be over.'

Lith turned his head in the direction of the wagon where the children were, knowing that his best shot at getting out of there alive was to lure the enemy there and bait the Eternal Fortress at striking at Elysia.

At that point, a Guardian would come out and drive the lost city back. Even such a powerful being could only stall for time since killing Thaymos was impossible. It was a huge gamble for little return.

The Guardians might read his intentions and refuse to help until the last moment or maybe even take back their vow after rescuing them as a punishment for Lith's manipulations.
