The First Legendary Beast Master

Chapter 1532 One Jin Rescue

The portal opened, and Karlʼs group followed the pair of Wrath Demon Paladins through.

That was a strange thing to think, much less hear someone say out loud.

However, they really were Paladins by class, even if their skills seemed to lean heavily toward fire and destruction.

It must be a peculiarity of the local System, the species couldnʼt get the class at all on Karlʼs home world.

”Stay behind us while we greet them. Once we have joined the fight, you join as well. Itʼs a formality to keep the Elders from getting involved. If they know that weʼre part of the same group, they have no business stopping us.”

Running through the woods with Hawk on his shoulder and Cara right behind him, Karl shifted left of the group, while Dana moved right.

That put them in a fan shaped position behind the enemies, who were surrounding Alisha, the half Elemental Berserker, and Jin, who looked much worse for wear.

”Just turn it over and we let you live. Donʼt be stupid, itʼs too valuable to be lost entirely.” The man was demanding.

Jin smiled at him. ”I will scour it in the holy fire of the afterlife before I hand it over.”

”As you wish.”

That was the Paladinʼs cue, and the two Demons roared, while Karl and Dana both called for support.

Karl called Dark Elven High Priestesses as his Epic Golems, while Dana called Dark Elven Kings, who were fighters instead of healers.

Then, Karl and Rae both called on Spectral Knights, and a small army of Skeleton Warriors for backup using [Undead Minions]. Karl had to try not to laugh as he realized that all his skeleton warriors were skeletal hounds with metal teeth.

That wasnʼt a normal use of the spell, he assumed. But he also hadnʼt specified.

”You think that you can rescue your friends from us? Well, then you can die with them.” The arrogant young man in vibrant yellow robes declared with a grand gesture for his underlings to attack.

There were fifty of them, to the two surviving members of the other group, and the six members of the rescue team.

The Elder must have had great confidence in the Paladins.

Or, he didnʼt realize that nearly everyone in the other group was dead already. That seemed more likely.

Karl sent the Priestesses to bring back who they could with a [Mass Resurrection] spell, and some healing. That was the primary reason for the choice.

That, and the fact that they got along well with Raeʼs spider golems, who leapt over the battle with the Priestesses on their back to deliver them to the necessary location.

A large group of agile Immortals wielding short twin blades came for Karl, giving him only a split second to see their interface.

All the names were yellow, so Rogue type classes, he assumed.

That he could deal with.

[Warbeast] shifted Karl into a massive, armoured World Dragon. That stopped the attackers for a split second, long enough that the Undead had a chance to charge into combat.

Dana had four clones of herself active, along with the pair of Elven Kings, and they were quickly driving the attackers back, giving themselves room to reach the survivors, while Rae filled the gaps behind them with her army.

{Youʼve had your chance to run. Make peace with your god.} Karl taunted the attackers, right before he unleashed the breath of a World Dragon on them, laced with [Randomize].

He had no clue what was going to happen, but Cara was absolutely certain that it was going to be entertaining.

Barriers flashed into existence, and weapons shattered as the corrosive effects of the breath weapon hit the attackers. Then, the plant life around them began to grow, and horror overtook their expressions.

Frantically, they threw themselves out of the area of effect, preferring to face the undead.

[Oh, that is good. We only got one, but itʼs enough.] Cara laughed.

The stricken Immortal had been too slow to get his barriers up, and his body was currently undergoing a violent transformation into what appeared to be a half dozen species at the same time.

Mutually incompatible species.

Seconds later, the effect ended. But what was left could not be called a human corpse, there was nothing left of the original form, only a mass of twisted flesh and extra limbs in improbable locations.

That was not what had caught Caraʼs attention, though.

In the middle of the battlefield, growing tall and proud, was a vibrant white

Chaos Lilly.

An Immortal Rank flower, and an alchemy reagent of incredible potency. She had heard Remi talking about it with the Elder while they were discussing rare potions, and now Karlʼs breath weapon had given her a chance to obtain it.

The six-metre tall form of a [Warbeast] enhanced Chaos Badger charged through the battle, ignoring the blades that bounced off the [Eternal Lightning] barrier over her hide.

She grabbed the flower into her space and mentally planted it, hoping that she hadnʼt injured the roots with her haphazard transplantation.

Then, she turned to face the enemy.

Five men turned to face her as the badger unwittingly put herself between them and Alisha.

Cara smirked at them, her scarred face making it much more frightening. Then laughed as Karlʼs claws tore the arms off one of them from behind, before the rest of the body was stomped upon and pulverized using the massive weight of an Immortal World Dragon, and [Crushing Blow].

A barrage of [Chaos Blasts] flew from Cara toward her enemies, who found themselves trapped between an impossibly large dragon and a feral badger.

Then, the flaming meteor strikes started, as Hawk got into position to control the battlefield from above.

No words were exchanged as the battle turned into a slaughter, with the

attackers forced into a smaller defensive circle, unable to do anything but defend as their attacks proved mostly ineffective against these new

combatants.

Even the Paladins were gloating, as Karlʼs [Eternal Lightning] kept the few

strikes that made it past their defences from causing actual injury, and the [Consecrated Ground] effect from their new blades constantly damaged the

enemies.

They really had picked the perfect companions for this fight.
