304 Claus vs Noah

After Sakis and the Vermillion Jade Sect's Group Leader were dead, their subordinates who had been fighting bravely suddenly felt a suppressive aura act on them.

It was so strong that their valiant aura was extinguished, and they were forced to kneel on the ground.

Kneeling on the ground soon became insufficient. These men's faces were glued to the ground as they begged for someone to relieve them of the stress.

Noah had pulled out the commanding badges from Sakis and the Vermillion Jade Sect's Group Leader.

He stared at the men who were glued to the ground with a smirk on his face.

"I can help you," His voice was sweet and pleasant to the ears of these soldiers who awaited it with bated breath.

"Submit to me," He seemed to order these warriors with a commanding tone.

Even this voice seemed sweet to these warriors who were experiencing the strenuous pressure.

"I submit to you!" A warrior shouted with all his might. He wanted to be free of this pressure and didn't care much about who he was serving.

This warrior didn't have a deep sense of loyalty for his sect or something. He felt that his life was the most important.

These were the sentiments of the majority of the soldiers who had been stuck to the ground by the Dragon's pressure.

Noah remembered the voices of the warriors who had submitted to him. He immediately scanned them with his personal commanding badge while putting away the commanding badge he had gathered.

Suddenly, Claus rushed towards him and attacked him.

Noah didn't even glance in his direction as he side-stepped and dodged his attack while scanning the warriors who had surrendered to him.

Noah was assured in his ability to deal with this guy whenever he wished. The combat didn't need to be rushed. He should first aid these warriors before continuing his battle with the other warriors.

It was a slightly comical scene as Claus rushed to attack Noah. But Noah would easily dodge the attack, causing Claus to crash into a nearby tree or a stone.

The other group leaders belonging to special factions and top sects were dumbfounded at how Noah was ignoring Claus and focusing on the downed warriors.

Noah was unconcerned about dealing with these warriors. Azaroth had instructed him to increase the size of his Heretical Paladins as much as possible.

Noah was just always working with that goal in his mind. He felt that it would be better to prioritize these warriors over his battle against the other group leaders.

All the warriors were witnessing this scene of Claus rushing towards Noah and trying to attack him. However, Noah ignored Claus while dodging his attacks to scan the downed warriors with his commanding badge.

There were nearly 150 warriors on the ground whom Noah had to scan. And Noah had barely scanned 30 or so warriors.

Claus soon realized that he couldn't hit Noah like this. He had to change his approach.

The next time Claus rushed towards Noah, he was a little slower compared to his normal speed.

He was analyzing how Noah was going to react. Noah hadn't moved from his spot as he waited for Claus to approach him.

'I can do this!' Claus suddenly thought of a simpler way to hit Noah.

The ground underneath Noah suddenly held his fists tightly. Noah ignored this and continued to scan the warrior ahead of him.

This time, Claus was sure that Noah couldn't dodge his attack. He rushed at Noah with his full speed to strike his head with his punch.

Unfortunately, Noah had sensed his attack and his upper body leaned forward at the last possible second to dodge that attack.

Once again, Claus's attack had failed.

Noah was soon done with the scanning in that area. He then tried to raise his leg, and the ground that held his leg began to crack slightly before it broke.

The same thing occurred when Noah tried to move his other leg.

Claus gritted his teeth with an angry expression as he realized that he couldn't strike Noah at this speed. He had to become even stronger.

"I didn't want to attempt this form since I look really uncool but losing like this is also not that cool," Claus spoke as he soon got into a plank position with his palms touching the ground.

His body's texture began to change as a completely brown-colored skin could be seen. This skin appeared much harder than a human's skin. His eyeballs turned pure red as he glared at Noah.

"Enigma Stomp!" Claus strongly stomped the ground with his feet as he shook the ground in the surroundings.

While Noah was scanning another warrior, he felt the entire ground shaking as if an earthquake had occurred.

"Skull Bash!" Before Noah could sense Claus's approaching body, Claus struck Noah's back with all his strength.

Noah's eyes widened, but he clenched his fist and tried his best to endure that attack. He took a couple of steps forward due to that strong impact.

"Enough of you," He whispered with a deathly cold voice. Just from his voice, a guy could figure out that he was utterly furious!

Claus backed away unconsciously while he remained in that same before as before.

"Sword Domain!" Noah suddenly whispered these words and used his Sword Domain. Claus' body, which was so close to him, was assaulted from all directions with hundreds of invisible blade strokes.

Their invisibility wasn't something that troubled Claus that much. Claus could still sense them with his sixth sense and guess from where the slash was approaching him. It was the quantity of those slashes.

There were so many blade strokes that he couldn't deflect them or even attempt to protect himself.

Claus felt helpless within this sword domain. He could do nothing other than boosting his defensive ability with Earth Ardor and pray that Noah would run out of energy soon.

Unfortunately, fate didn't seem to favor him. Noah's energy appeared to be inexhaustible as those blade strokes chipped away Claus's Earth Ardor that protected him.

Claus was soon bleeding due to injuries on all parts of his body. He had lost so much blood that his body began to feel cold.

Noah didn't even turn his head as Claus's body soon lost all strength, and he fell to the ground.

Before his body could touch the ground, it was shredded to thousands of pieces!

At this moment, Casten Tarr suggested to his other comrades, "Run!"

"Naturally/ Affirmative," Karsten Wenzel and the Stony Rock Sect's group leader spoke at the same time.

Luna couldn't reply as she was embroiled in a fierce battle against Aria.

She brandished her wind sword as she sliced apart the Icicle thrown at her. She was gradually narrowing the gap between herself and Aria.

Aria had noticed this and was preparing herself for a close-ranged battle against Luna.

She had already utilized the Icicle Shower against Luna, but it wasn't all that useful.

Aria suddenly released a lot of her Ardor around her body. A misty aura was created around her that not only shrouded her from Luna's eyes but also slowed down Luna's speed.

Aria's attacks grew stronger and faster within this mist while Luna's attacks grew weaker and slower.

"Did you forget my element? I can easily blow away this mist!"

"Aerial Gale!" Luna shouted as she raised her arm that held the sword in the air.
