---- Chapter 3038 The instant Ramon swung his sword, the searchlights atop Abyss City snapped on without warning. High-powered beams illuminated the area for miles, turning the night as bright as day. At the very center, the thousand elite troops Ramon brought from Aurora City were fully exposed. Consequently, the soldiers who had been ready to charge with Ramon froze in ce, stunned. Heavy artillery on the walls of Abyss City shifted, and the barrels locked onto the troops. That was not all. Warriors hidden in the shadows stepped forward, all with mounted machine guns, now in position.
More than a dozen dark gun barrels pinned Ramon''s men in a deadly crossfire. ''This is a trap! That was Ramon''s first thought, even as his sword was already swinging. However, relying on his overwhelming strength, he showed no fear at all. He shifted to a two-handed grip, power surging, and continued his brutal strike toward the city gate. "Trying to raid my home? Nice try!" ---- A coldugh rang out as a figure dove straight down from the city walls. He too wielded a greatsword, and his was evenrger than Ramon''s.
A ck-and-crimson arc of sword light, radiating earth-shaking power, came straight down on Ramon''s head. Andrew ignored the city gate entirely and went straight for Ramon''s life. As expected, Ramon was forced to pull his sword back and meet Andrew head-on. The violent recoil and shockwave sent Ramon flying a few hundred yards before he stabilized midair. Inside his heavy armor, he took two sharp breaths and said ina low voice, "Andrew, you''re actually in Abyss City?" Andrewnded steadily, sword in hand, and stood alone before the massive gates like an unmovable wall.
"If I were not here, would that not have gone exactly the way the Ludendorff family wanted?" He stared coldly at Ramon as his voice stayed calm. Ramon grinned viciously and said, "You really are a cunning bastard. You took your men out of the city and pretended to hit the Cathedral army just to put on a show for the Ludendorff family." Andrew slowly raised his greatsword, pointing it at Ramon with an equally vicious sneer. "Of course. If I didn''t do that, how could ---- I lure you out of Aurora City to raid me?" Ramon gritted his teeth.
"Cyril, Uncle Alonzo, and even the entire Ludendorff family have been yed by you again. But Andrew, you should know my strength. Even if you pulled off this surprise tactic to lure me here, when the real wolf shows up, you and Abyss City are still going down!" Andrew''s greatsword glowed with flowing light. "Is that so? Then please, Lord Ramon,e and try again!" Ramon snorted coldly, sprinted forward three steps, and then leapt high into the air. That single leap brought him as high as Abyss City''s walls, nearly 70 feet up. Then, with a low roar, his ck greatsword came crashing down.
Dark red light red in Andrew''s eyes as he lifted his de to meet it without yielding an inch. Both men fought as pure power-and-speed-type berserkers. Their sh was direct and brutal, with no tricks at all. de energy exploded outward like a raging storm. Craters sted open across the ground, which was quickly torn apart by the shockwaves of their battle. Ramon''s heavy armor nged as he swung again in fury. A phantom formed along his de, taking the shape of a snarling ---- panther that lunged at Andrew.
This was sword aura taking form, proving Ramon''s mastery of both martial power and swordsmanship. Yet Andrew showed no strain at all in his response.
