554 Behind the blockade (Part 3)"You will pay for that mutt!" Reeves cursed at Ebony who was responsible for his flames' intensity diminishing.
Ho! Ho! Ho!
In response to his threat, Ebony laughed surprising Reeves and making him even more pissed off.
At the moment Reeves came out of the wall, Orion had begun making his move. Using the earth element as a mode of movement, he continuously slid across the battlefield looking for the perfect opportunity to strike.
"Got you!" On reaching Blake's blind spot, Orion continuously fired earth spikes coated with paralyzing toxins, while simultaneously dodging ice shards from Ivory.
Ding! Ding! Ding!
Thanks to the system that provided all-around vision as well as Mind Boost and Neuron Overload which more than tripled his processing and reaction speed, Blake controlled the Guardian Scarab to form large metallic wings that covered him entirely.
'Amateur! It's common sense to never obstruct your line of sight.' Orion grinned as a large number of rocks broke off from the ground and rushed toward him, forming a rock amour that negated all of Ivory's spells and allowed him to recklessly dive at Blake.
Bang!
Just as he was a meter away from slamming into Blake, a spatial corridor opened and a spinning Ebony rammed into him with the impact of a truck.
BOOM!
Orion was sent crashing through a pillar and into a wall, but at that moment Reeves who was wrapped in hundreds of lightning arcs, appeared close to Blake who was still enveloped by the Guardian Scarab.
'Saw that too!'
Instead of stacking more defenses to block the attack, Blake opened up the metallic wings allowing a powerful torrent of water to gush out from the spatial corridor he had hidden inside.
Bang!
Once again, Reeves was sent flying away, giving Blake a little space to breathe as Ivory was keeping an eye on Thalia.
Using Mind Boost wasn't only just for quick thinking; the correct method of use was no different from playing chess.
With the increased processing speed and the tremendous boost in thinking capacity that the spell granted, the user would be able to continuously analyze all threats present, make predictions, and also come up with countermeasures for all possible scenarios.
Thanks to this, although the demigods were considerably fast, it was only Reeves that was faster than him. However, thanks to Ebony and Ivory constantly occupying him, the few times Reeves would have a chance to get close, Blake would have already prepared for it a long time ago.
'Things are going better than expected, but if I am not able to escape soon there will be no hope for me.' Blake thought as he looked at the situation on the battlefield.
His goal wasn't to win the fight or kill anyone, all he just wanted to do was escape this place before the blockade realizes what was going on here. However, Thalia was well aware of this and had taken it upon herself to man the entrance.
'His close-range spatial corridors are very annoying!' Thalia cursed as she saw her teammates being thrown around like ragdolls.
'At this rate, we won't be able to beat these wolves, however, we can stall for backup and keep attacking till he makes a mistake.' Thalia released a powerful wind burst that deflected all the ice shards Ivory fired at her, but that was when she noticed that Damon had been standing there all this while.
"Why are you standing there doing nothing?!" She screamed at Castiel.
…
All through the fight so far, Damon had been in his mental world trying to process what exactly was going on and what he should do.
'Why is he trying to escape?' Damon couldn't help but wonder. 'Is that even a question; it is because of them!'
'But what about the consequences? Isn't it better to just wait until he is finally free?' Damon said but he soon realized why. 'Knowing the Frostborne and Blackthorn family, they would use this as an opportunity to elongate his detainment.'
'Wait a second… are the attacks on the cities a distraction to free Blake?' Damon was surprised because the chances of this being true were high.
'The League of Assassins wants to recruit him, but why?!' He was even more shocked by the realization. 'Someone that can go toe to toe with 3 demigods at the same sure is special, however, does that warrant mobilizing the entire League just for him?'
'Surely, there is something special about him that we do not know.' Damon began trying to recall if he had missed something during their time in the magic school.
"Why are you standing there doing nothing?!" Damon was drawn back to reality by Thalia's scream.
'Shit! What do I do?' Damon was confused. He was torn between fighting and capturing one of his few friends or aiding his friend by doing nothing, thus freeing him from possible execution and; in turn, getting punished for it.
'I also hate them just like you do…' Damon finally made a decision. "I am sorry Blake."
Night Mist!
He raised his hands and black mist began pouring out and enveloping the entire space.
"What are you doing, the report says that he can see through your mist!" Thalia screamed at him as she began suspecting that Castiel wanted to aid Blake.
"Yes, but it will drain the vitality of him and his wolves." Damon explained.
At that point, Reeves and Orion were back on their feet. The former sustained a few broken ribs from the impact, while the latter just recovered from a little vertigo thanks to his armor.
'Shit!' Blake cursed as he saw Thalia blocking off the exit with ice.
"Time to properly join the fight." Thalia grinned as she cracked her knuckles.
Without wasting another second, the 4 of them rushed at Blake while charging their spell.
Reeves conjured a sword made of gold flames, Damon activated dark tendrils and lightning reinforcement, Thalia activated Water wheel, and Orion sunk into the floor.
