As the Dufol Language resounded, the special force field of Protection Against Evil enveloped the 'Death Lawyer.'
With no arms, most of his face, and part of his body gone, standing on one leg, the 'Death Lawyer' let out a miserable scream.
It seemed that the pain at this moment was more agonizing than losing both arms, most of his face, and part of his body.
In the midst of the screams, the 'Death Lawyer' began to falter.
The only remaining eye glared at Jason with fierce and venomous hatred.
Again, a Protection Against Evil.
And then, the third Protection Against Evil followed immediately.
This time the 'Death Lawyer' fell to the ground.
And his entire body began to melt.
Just like a candle that had been lit.
Jason gasped heavily.
His physical strength had reached its limit.
Earlier, as the 'game' began and that inexplicable 'will' began to influence him, he had used up all the preemptively stored Protection Against Evil.
The current Protection Against Evils were freshly stored.
Relying on the Unmatched level Body Forging Technique of [War Pattern. Prus. Griffin. Shadow Concealment]!
Upon reaching the Unmatched level, [War Pattern. Prus. Griffin. Shadow Concealment] normally provided a +70% increase to recovery rate of physical strength, vigor, and injuries.
And under the night sky, the activated Embrace of the Night: Basic Form added another +20%.
The accelerated recovery rate of 90% was enough to astonish ordinary people.
Not to mention Jason, a Transcendent whose physique was 6.7 times that of an ordinary human.
It could be said that by simply resting quietly and breathing a few more times, Jason could recover the strength of an ordinary person.
Relying on sensation and overall calculation, Jason began to replenish Protection Against Evil right at the start of the explosion.
Although it was difficult, Jason managed it in a 'completely safe' environment.
However, achieving this was a state of extremity.
At this moment, Jason was utterly exhausted.
He had also entered an overdrawn state.
It was only by sheer willpower that he kept himself from falling.
Yet, in this time of recovery, even with a physique 6.7 times that of an ordinary person and a +90% recovery rate, Jason felt extreme fatigue.
Even his lungs were painfully burning.
Under normal circumstances, if ordinary people jogged uniformly for 200-300 meters, they would feel tired, but with a little rest, they could quickly recover.
But when ordinary people start running 3000 meters, even if they stop, they would be exhausted, unable to recover without a good night's sleep.
At this moment, that was Jason's state.
He wanted to collapse on the ground.
He knew that not everything was over.
It seemed like the whole Mandelin Town had vanished.
That inexplicable 'will' had also left.
But Jason did not believe that 'their' Leader had failed.
It was simple, what was happening right now, the Hundred Major Families could also do.
The opponent would not be unprepared.
And with preparations, what was happening now was nothing.
At most, it was a minor trouble created for the opponent.
While Jason was rapidly regaining his strength in the manner of the Unmatched level [War Pattern. Prus. Griffin. Shadow Concealment Technique], shadows began converging in the ruined remnants in front of him.
Like fish in clear lake water, the shadows swiftly swam.
In a breath, they converged together.
Forming a human shape.
Cloaked in a black cape, covering his face, even with Jason's perception, he could not clearly see the opponent's real face, only vaguely making out a hooked nose.
"Jason! Do you know what you've done?!"
The opponent roared as soon as he appeared.
Frantic, that was the opponent's attitude now.
This scene gave Jason a surprise.
A delightful surprise!
It seemed that the current situation was more troublesome for the opponent than expected.
It happened earlier than planned?
Was the opponent caught off guard?
Why had the 'elders' of the Hundred Major Families chosen Mandelin Town?
Clearly, there was a significant connection here with that 'historical fiend'.
Even, that inexplicable 'will' might have been the 'historical fiend'.
Although Jason still couldn't determine if that inexplicable 'will' was a part of the 'historical fiend' or if the 'historical fiend' originated from that inexplicable 'will', or whether the two were symbiotic.
But one thing Jason could be sure of: the Leader of 'them,' after many years of effort, was aiming for the scene just now!
Massive mutual slaughter!
Then, to complete a certain ritual!
Besides this point, Jason could think of nothing else.
And now, the Leader of 'them' didn't allow Jason to continue thinking.
After a frantic roar, the opponent flicked his hand toward Jason.
Immediately, more fish-like shadows appeared on the ground.
These shadows turned into a volley of arrows shooting at Jason.
Leaving no room for Jason to dodge!
Amidst a series of crisp metallic clinks, sparks flew around Jason.
The arrows formed by shadows, Jason did not dodge.
