"You think that I do not know what you dove winged freaks are thinking?! It will not be that easy even for you guys." Adrian thought as he already sized up the three angels that are in the battlefield.
Adrian might not be able to kill them but that does not mean that he could not escape them. It is also the fact that they have not showed hostility openly which is why Adrian did nothing to them as well. Adrian deliberately chose an area where there is a higher concentration of players than NPCs.
Adrian knew that the players will not attack him compared to NPCs. He also chose the area that is belonging to the influence of the dwarves since they have a deal with them. In fact, there are actually three Faceless arch Priest that have been summoned and each are trying to summon the Faceless Arch Fiend.
"It seems that our place is faring better since I could hear the roars of a mindless beast on the other side." Adrian stated as he looked at all the mirrors that he scattered.
Adrian is not only viewing their battlefield but also that of the others. The one helping him process the information is the Cube of Paradox. Adrian's commands to it are simple and that is to report any odd thing that is happening on the other battlefields.
A little north from their location, a Faceless Arch Priest successfully summoned a Faceless Arch Fiend. It is a hulking beast that is about fifty meters in height and is full of bulging muscles. Its legs are not even that big compared to its upper body with four thick arms. It is a monster of pure strength as numerous players need to join together in order to stop it in its tracks.
"The next Faceless Arch Priest is having a difficult time because of the interference of the rankers. This one has barely summoned the thing it wants to summon because of the angels. I might as well use them well." Adrian thought as he wanted to use the huge attack power of the angels.
"Let us help them with the surrounding monsters first then." Adrian stated as he transported all the faceless monsters stopping the angels to reach the Faceless Arch Priest.
"It seems that the demon is helping us, brothers." The angel carrying the spear stated as he noticed that the faceless monsters stopping them all vanished.
"Do not be fooled. Just because our goals align for now does not mean that we should tolerate them. Look for a chance to kill him when you are attacking that thing." The angel using the sword and shield stated.
"Got it. Kill that thing first then the pest later and make sure that it is an accident. The people here think that the demon is their champion." The angel carrying a great sword replied.
It did not take long for the three angels to reach the Faceless Arch Priest with the help of the players. The Faceless Arch Priest might not look disturbed, but it is actually a bit unsure if it could take on the three angels. The angels deal holy damage which is why the Faceless Arch Priest had to use an alternative.
The anti-magic field that it generated got reduced in half as one of its mouths started to chant another spell. The summoning magic circle started glow once more as the Faceless Arch Priest continued the spell that it is using.
"It is trying to summon its helper. Kill it before it succeeds." The angel holding a spear stated as he charged towards the Faceless Arch Priest with his spear pointed at it.
The Faceless Arch Priest conjured a spell that slowed down the angel and the former evaded the attack easily due to it. The Faceless Arch Priest then started to conjure hundreds of mana orbs and launched them indiscriminately.
Enemies and friends alike are all hit by the raining attacks. The angels did not even bother with the players and just stayed true to their objective. As long as they kill this ugly thing then they would help the players more than trying to protect them.
"Those winged freaks did not even cast a spell that could block that attack!" One of the players cursed as he got significant damage from the mana orbs and the attacks of the enemies he is facing.
"This is war. Fend for yourself." A paladin player of the Church of Light stated as he raised his shield to block the attacks.
"What about that then?!" The player pointed to the area where Adrian and his group are currently residing.
Adrian easily protected the area where he is using the numerous mirrors that he conjured up. The downside is that his mana is depleting like crazy. The upside is that the damage that he absorbed has piled up to the utmost.
"Paradox, calculate the best course for the beams of light to fire in order to decimate as much opponents as possible." Adrian commanded.
"Affirmative. Calculating now. Calculation has finished. Fire the ability now?" The Cube of Paradox asked Adrian.
"Diffusion!" Adrian stated.
The mirrors that are scattered in the area suddenly started firing off light beams. The light beams had strength and penetrative ability that the faceless monsters that are weak easily fell down. Numerous holes appeared on the bodies of the faceless monsters hit.
The light beams all bounced on other mirrors that did not fire the beam. It actually looked like someone is having a light show since the beams of light are dancing in the area. When a beam of light will hit a friendly unit, a mirror will spawn and redirect the beam of light.
Each beam of light can only bounce for a total of ten times before dissipating and losing power. Each bounce will also dissipate the power of a beam of light by 50%. The damage might grow weaker but numerous damage piling up is still a lot of damage.
