Chapter 2461 Pursue

Chapter 2461 PursueCaught in a double bind, Jared had sword marionettes attacking him from above and below, leaving
him with no way to escape.
In the next second, he pressed his palms together, and two radiant beams of light suddenly emerged,
creating a shield above his head. He planned to block the onslaught of a dozen or so sword
marionettes descending upon him head-on.
The moment the sword marionettes made contact with his shield, they went berserk, desperately
crashing into the barrier in an attempt to shatter it.
However, Jared's shield was incredibly sturdy and impregnable. Despite the relentless assault, they
were unable to break through it.
Although he managed to temporarily halt their advance from above, this was not a sustainable solution.
If this continued, his shield would eventually be overwhelmed and broken through.
Jared trained his gaze on the Dragonslayer Sword beneath his feet, his eyes gleaming with
determination. Gritting his teeth, he propelled himself downward like a shooting star. He needed to
retrieve his sword as quickly as possible, for he knew that his chances of getting away would be slim
once those sword marionettes broke through his shield.
As he plunged into the midst of the sword marionettes, dozens of them were immediately alerted.
Exuding a frenzied aura, they brandished their weapons and charged toward him.
With a swift motion, Jared grabbed the Dragonslayer Sword and turned to flee. As he ran, he whipped out the Divine Bow and pulled the bowstring, releasing a barrage of arrows that
shot toward the oncoming sword marionettes.
Since he couldn't escape upward, he had no choice but to flee to the side. Once he had moved away
from that area, he planned to return to the lake above.
The dozens of sword marionettes erupted with furious roars, disregarding the rain of arrows unleashed
by Jared. They charged recklessly toward him, showing no regard for their own lives.
“This bunch of mindless b*stards really have no fear of dying, huh?” he muttered to himself.
As Jared gazed at the sword marionettes, who were all Manifestors, a chill ran down his spine. He
realized that if he were caught by them, he would likely meet his demise in an instant.
Rumble...
Just then, the dozen or so sword marionettes finally broke through his shield and joined forces with the
main group before charging toward Jared. They pursued him relentlessly, seemingly determined to
prevent him from taking the Dragonslayer Sword.
Seeing that, Jared summoned all his might to draw the bowstring taut and, with a fierce yell, released a
barrage of arrows imbued with Ultimate Force at the sword marionettes.
In the blink of an eye, the arrows found their mark on several sword marionettes, yet their strikes
proved futile in bringing them down. His assaults failed to halt the relentless advance of the sword
marionettes. Despite releasing dozens of arrows in rapid succession, the power of each projectile was significantly
weakened, leading to non-lethal strikes against the sword marionettes.
Just as Jared was fleeing and fending off the sword marionettes, a formidable aura suddenly surged
from behind him.
novelbinStartled, he whipped his head around, and upon seeing what was behind him, he broke out in a cold
sweat.
To his dismay, he saw countless sword marionettes approaching him from behind, closing in on him.
The number of sword marionettes in this group alone exceeded a hundred, and now both squads of
sword marionettes were converging toward him. It was a daunting sight that terrified him to the core.
“Where the f*ck did these b*stards come from?”
Jared couldn't help but curse out loud. He knew all too well that the sheer number of sword marionettes
gathered together held an unimaginable level of power. Even if they didn't attack, the intimidating aura
emanating from them alone was enough to crush him.
He had no choice but to change direction and flee. At that moment, a peculiar scene was unfolding
within the sword-cleansing lake. Jared was running frantically ahead while a horde of sword
marionettes was pursuing him relentlessly from behind, their sinister figures looming ominously.
With no time to spare for counterattacks, he could only rely on his agility and nimble footwork to evade
their relentless pursuit. Thankfully, their lack of sentience and sluggish movements granted him a
temporary respite from imminent danger.
