Chapter 484 - Putting a “Ring” On It (1/2)

“What are you going to do?” asked Jiang Fei, pretending to be worried.

“What every commander of war would do. Besides, dying on the battlefield is the highest honor a man could earn,” said Heinz with a warm smile. Jiang Fei sighed when he saw that there was not a single shred of fear nor doubt in his smile.

There was a one in a million chance that Heinz could fight and survive a battle against an Overlord-tier opponent. Knowing this, Heinz was adamant about staying behind. Once both Jiang Fei and Isabella had gone through the portal, Heinz would destroy the mini Teleportation Circle to cut off any means of travel to the Demon Flame Fortress.

“Very well. I shall tell the tale of your bravery to the others,” said Jiang Fei as he tried to say something a loyal soldier would. He did not know what was going on yet he was sure that it had something to do with the continuation of the scenario. Even if he wanted to see how the story unfolded, neither he nor Isabella would be able to stand a chance against an Overlord-tier boss.

“You dare to escape?!” cried the same voice. A flash of golden light came down in between Jiang Fei and the mini Teleportation Circle.

“Ah…” Jiang Fei was stunned.

“It’s you-” the Overlord-tier boss gasped at the sight of Jiang Fei.

“Commander Heinz, please take your troops across the portal. I will deal with this myself. Do not worry. I swear that no harm shall befall the princess,” said Jiang Fei as he heroically took a stance against the boss.

“What…?”

Before Heinz could even react to Jiang Fei’s absurd request, Jiang Fei had summoned the Juvenile Skygliding Dragon and flown away.

Heinz was stunned with Jiang Fei’s escape with Isabella and was even more bewildered when the Overlord-tier boss left him and his troops to chase after Jiang Fei.

“Retreat!” cried Heinz as it was his priority to finish what he started. He had already accomplished his mission and there was nothing left for him to do. Once everyone had already entered the portal, Heinz glanced back at the direction where Jiang Fei had flown to and placed a bomb at the mini Teleportation Circle before going inside the portal.

30 seconds later, the bomb detonated and the portal was destroyed, leaving nothing but a decimated town. Right now, the only way the Light Faction could rescue their Saint was to launch an all-out attack at the Demon Flame Fortress. However, like the town, the Demon’s fortress was protected by many towers and defensive weapons that were far more superior. Bring your Overlords because not even they could withstand the defense of the Demon Flame Fortress.

Back to where Jiang Fei was, he had returned to where he had first landed. The hills where herbs and minerals were in abundance.

When Jiang Fei landed, a light pillar flashed down from the sky and a beautiful young girl came out of it.

“Hmph!” Isabella scoffed as she hugged Jiang Fei from behind.

“I finally meet you again…” said the young girl with powerful emotions of bittersweet and longing.

“Uhm…”

Jiang Fei could not say anything at the moment. The young beautiful girl that was the Overlord-tier boss was the assassin of the Luminous Church, Sylphy. A long time ago, Jiang Fei had used Heartfelt on this NPC, thinking that he could at least gain a powerful spy in the Light Faction. Little did he know that he had unlocked a hidden setting in the game that made an opposite gender NPC be madly in love with him! Heartfelt was an item that would ignore all necessary requirements and increase one’s relationship points to the maximum amount.

“Hmph!” Isabella scoffed again, this time, even louder and more pompous. Her hands had even moved toward Jiang Fei’s waist this time. It looked like she was preventing Jiang Fei from moving away from her!
