Chapter 523 - 523: Way

"I apologize. I went in depth, thinking about how they achieved it. You're right. It doesn't matter. What matters is that we need to destroy them." Kellian agreed.?"And I have a plan."

"What plan?" Tristan asked.

"W-" Kellian stopped before he could even finish his sentence as he turned around.

He could see more planes come towards them, but they weren't fighter jets.

"It appears that our guest is here as well."

"Great. Now the Warlock Council is here too. Let's leave the jets and go for the Warlock Council directly," Tristan let out as he took a step forward.

"No. You won't be doing that!"

"What do you mean? Why?"

"They can use formations on the jets. Won't they use it on the planes they're traveling in?"

"Didn't we blow up their plane easily last time?"

"Exactly. After that, do you think they'll bring weak planes without defense? They didn't expect that and sent ordinary planes at that time. But this time, they came for war."

"So? Just because they have the formations, we shouldn't attack? What shall we do then? Run away?"

"You won't be doing that either."

"Not this and not that either? What are you trying to say? What exactly is your plan?"

"I want you to keep your focus on the jets. I'll handle the planes," Kellian said.

"Alone?"

"Who said I'm alone?" Kellian smirked. "Jean is coming with me as well."

"You take out the jets only. Oh, and I think it's not that hard to take out the jets either. As long as the attack lands on the plane after destroying the first barrier and before the second could be formed, you'll have a clean hit. And how you can achieve that, I think you already know."

Kellian started walking away, followed by his trusted air Jean.

After Kellian left, Tristan looked at Dallas. "Did you understand what he meant?"

"I did." Dallas nodded. "I need you to use the same attack again. Can you do that?"

"Of course I can. Just watch."

"Jean, are you ready?" Kellian asked, looking at Jean.

"I am prepared. You can go ahead," Jean agreed as well.

She raised her hand in the direction of the incoming planes, making a majestic spear appear above her.

The fifteen meter long golden spear appeared to be made of pure energy.

Kellian turned into a shadow again, which turned into the shadow of the eagle. He started flying towards the incoming planes. He had the shape of an ordinary eagle, but his speed was much faster.

Jean clenched her fist, and the spear above her shot towards the Warlock Council Plane.

On the other end, Tristan also attacked one of the fighter planes.

The pitch black arch of light landed on the plane, shattering its barrier. As the barrier was destroyed, another barrier appeared, which stopped the attack.

The attack was fired back by the barrier. Tristan brought his sword out again, destroying the attack which came back from the barrier.

"That was your plan? Useless," Tristan muttered.

At the same time, the spear also landed on the formation barrier that appeared around the plane.

The translucent barrier shattered from the impact, but another barrier appeared. The second barrier was also broken by the spear; however, when the third barrier appeared, it looked like a defeated battle.

The spear wasn't able to destroy the third barrier instead of being destroyed itself.

The energy of the barrier was absorbed by the barrier, which became even stronger. The formation darkened in color as it fired the same spear back, which was red this time instead of the usual yellow.

Instead of trying to block the spear and waste her energy, Jean simply stepped aside, letting the spear crash on where she was previously standing.

"If that was the plan, then weren't we following that already?" Tristan was still disappointed.

He was told that there was a plan. That's also why he attacked, but it was the same thing again.

"No need to panic. Just enjoy the fireworks." Dallas smirked.

Tristan looked at him with confusion when he saw Dallas snap his fingers.

Boom~

A loud explosion resounded in the air. Tristan looked up to realize that the plane which he had attacked just now had exploded abruptly.

"W-what did you do? I don't understand?" Tristan asked.

"What I followed was a simple principle. You'll need to know how the formation works for that," Dallas answered.

"One attack activates the formation. The formation stops the attack. The attack slows down. When the formation is broken, the slower attacks move ahead, but the second formation is ready by then. So how can we pass through that?" he asked.

"By making sure that the attack doesn't slow down?" Tristan suggested. "But what was different about my attack this time? It was the same as last."

"You're wrong. We can't make your attack faster after it's blocked by a formation. The only thing we can do is take advantage of that slight window to sneak in another attack that is faster," Da ll lad replied.

"As soon as you attacked, I was also ready. I had already seen how long your attack takes to destroy the first barrier. So I timed my attack in such a way that it would reach that place right when your attack destroys the barrier."

" So my attack didn't slow down because of the barrier. And it passed through to land on the plane before the second barrier activated for you. And here we have the result. Neat, isn't it?"

"This is great! If it's like that, we can take them all out," Tristan let out, grinning. "Now that's what I call a good plan!"

Tristan looked towards another jet that was circling in the sky, firing at the Warlocks on the ground as it had used all the missiles.

"Ready?" he asked Dallas.

"You can attack anytime. You'll always find me ready." Dallas smirked.

"Stay safe," Jean muttered, glancing towards the plane of the Warlock Council.

The Warlock Council planes were circling around the battlefield, enjoying the sight and waiting to see if they were going to be needed in the battle or not.

Even Zhu was looking at the screen ahead, which was broadcasting the battlefield.

"So they found a way to pass through the barriers. Not bad. But it's certainly intriguing. They didn't attack us directly instead?" he muttered. The snake in his lap wriggled down.

"Are you bored little guy?" Zhu asked the snake. He was immediately distracted. "Hmm? That's intriguing. Another jet is taken out. They're fast."

Inside the plane, a shadow had appeared, unknown to everyone.
