BXBX NOVEL Chapter 197 - The Heroic Act
While everyone was confused and amazed at the same time, one of the adventurers recognised the boy and a smile was formed on his face when he did.
It was one of the adventurers which had helped John on the day where the mermaids attacked.
A tall, big and muscular frame man with Brown hair with an eye patch on his left eye. He carried a long sword on his waist and gave off a strong and powerful vibe.
He turned to all of the people who had stopped before launching a small fire ball into the air to grab their attention
And just like he had expected, he ended up grabbing the attention of many with his strong voice.
"ATTENTION! DON\'T LET YOUR CURIOSITY GET THE BETTER OF YOU! HOW LONG DO YOU THINK THAT KID CAN LAST IF HE HAS TO WORRY ABOUT YOU ALL?! GET ON THE MOVE! LET\'S HELP HIM IN OUR OWN WAY BY LEAVING THIS AREA!" The adventurer shouted from the top of his lungs.
Hearing this, the people began to realise that them being them being there was making things harder on the kid who was fighting for them.
They had been moved by what the kid had done and wanted to help in any way that they could.
"H-He\'s right!"
"What\'re we waiting for?! Let\'s go!"
"Let\'s help that boy!"
The crowd began to evacuate the area as fast as they could. Some hoped that this act wouldn\'t be seen as an act of being a coward but an act of helping a hero.
"I\'ll leave it the rest to you, kid." Said the adventurer
-------------------------
[Velox Duplici] Thought John
He propelled himself to the nearest falling object before placing his arm on it and muttering
"Levite"
In that instant, the falling object\'s drop slowed down and John moved on to the next one. He repeated this process over and over, aiming only for the big ones.
"The small ones are getting through, but the guard is gone so it looks like everything is fine-"
In that moment, From the corner of his eyes, he noticed it. There were adventurer\'s rushing out of the tower.
He recognised them, some of them were one of the groups which he had seen on the first floor of doors while the others he couldn\'t recall
There were no signs of Azure\'s party, the Scruffy hair lady\'s party or the cloaked party anywhere
"Damn it... I forgot about them." Said John as he propelled himself back to the front of the tower
His objective was making sure none of the objects which fell from the front would hit the adventurers, all though, he was certain that they wouldn\'t need it.
[I\'ll do it just to make sure.]
The tower was collapsing at a fast rate, not only that, but the crack around it was nearly about to connect on all sides, once that happened, then it\'d be game over
"Velox"
John propelled himself to two walls which had cracked off and were now simultaneously dropping towards him.
To this, John propelled himself in between them while stretching out both hands and placing each on them as he cast
[Levite]
That ended up slowing him down, giving him time to move to the next one, but it was after that, that things started to get out of hand
*Crack* *Crack*
More and more cracks began to appear around the giant tall tower and from the middle up, it slowly began to fall forward
"Crap, Are they ready yet?!" John asked as he turned back to check on them.
When he did, he was amazed. Before he had even realised it, a smile was formed on his face as he thought about how lucky he was to have such reliable teammates.
John raised his hand, gesturing them to wait, and as the tower began to slowly fall forward straight towards him, he lowered his hand
Serena and Ariel who saw this, Unleashed their spell sending a large spiralling wind cannon straight towards the Tower.
The adventurers which were leaving the entrance ran as fast as they could once they noticed that the tower was about to collapse on them, but at the same time, they couldn\'t take their eyes off the spell which had just been unleashed and the boy who was flying above them.
John propelled himself down to avoid the wind pressure and watched as the the immense amount of wind pressure hit on to the tower, causing it\'s fall to slow down but not push it back.
However, the attack wasn\'t dying out, it was only increasing in strength as the two girls continued to pour everything, they had into it.
Seeing this, John rose back up to the middle of the tower while keeping away from the pressure of air which was currently pulling at it
The tower was tall, around 1 kilometre tall if John was to try to take a rough guess, his ability to estimate was high so he believed that he was right on that mark even though he hoped that he wasn\'t.
The amount of pressure which he would need to push something that big back, instead of destroying it would be immense if he were to only rely on wind
As he turned back and looked down at all the people which were doing their best to get away, he realised that there was no way, something like this wouldn\'t do severe damage to the city if it were to fall.
"Looks like I\'ll have to go all out..." Said John as he propelled himself towards the tower which was currently falling down and placed his hands on it
[Levite, Levite, Levite, Levite]
He continued casting it over and over again, so that the spell could fully reach every inch and corner of this tower, he needed to do whatever he could to decrease it\'s weight
[Levite, Levite, Levite, Levite, Levite, Levite...]
He could feel it getting lighter, and as he did, he made sure to gather and gather more and more air behind his legs
"Come... ON!!!" He shouted
[Levite, Levite, Levite, Levite, LEVITE!!]
And then as if it were some sort of explosion, he unleashed it.
