Chapter 1053 Things Going Down Pretty Fast!
The plan was great, and William knew it succeeded more than Lara's city leaders' plan did. And yet as he was absorbed in listening to Panther's line of thoughts that he kept muttering to himself out loud while being alone in the office, something appeared!
It appeared like a cloud of black fog, something that came out of the blue and didn't show any sign or any warning. When it appeared, everything changed!
"Agh! Damn! This… This is a backlash!!" The one to scream out first was the spirit. And the moment William heard these words, he didn't hesitate to put an end to his inspection of Panther's fate and destiny. And yet he was half a beat slow and ended up suffering just a slight touch of that backlash.
Yet it was enough to make him fall on the ground and twist fiercely while feeling like his spirit was about to get crushed by something. He didn't know what was going on here, but he felt this wasn't a normal backlash and didn't feel like any backlash he suffered before.
Any other backlash would make him feel terribly bad and weak as if he got the beating of his life just now. He'd feel like he ended up in a hectic war with endless monsters and enemies, but this… This was totally different.
He felt like something was trying to eat away his spirit, ending up making him feel this close to dying. He didn't feel any weakness, didn't feel like he got any blow to his spirit power or anything.
The next instant he didn't stand on the ground, struggled in the middle of the shocking screams of Anjie and others around, sat on the ground cross-legged, closing his eyes, and tried to regulate his breathing to the best of his abilities.
He needed to train, and as he decided that, he struggled hard to say a single phrase, pouring every ounce of power into his words, "Get the hell out of my place now!"
"What?!!!" Panther was the one to get shocked, but Anjie then got what he was about to do.
"Run! Run for your lives!" she didn't hesitate and screamed, turned around and ran, ran towards the direction of the main gate of the guild.
When everyone saw her doing this, they knew something bad was coming their way. They didn't hesitate anymore and followed her in trying to get out of here.
But they were a bit late. William felt death approaching fast, and he couldn't hold back anymore. He started to train, and the moment he did, his giant spirit shadows appeared.
Anjie had seen these shadows before, but this time it was different. There was something gloomy, something black, hovering on top of the three spirits and the shining golden star.
It was like a hemisphere in shape as if some sort of a bubble was slowly forming and trying to encapsulate all of his spirits inside. It already covered half of his spirits and was moving fast to cover the rest.
Yet the moment he started training out of instinct, that speed seemed to halt. The smooth black surface of that hemisphere trembled as if it met its nemesis or something.
"You, b*tch, wanted to consume my spirits? Hell no!" William's deep voice came so loud and majestic as if he was a god speaking. His voice thundered in the ears of everyone present here, and all without exception felt a shiver deep down their spirits.
It was as if they met something they couldn't contend against, something that was totally out of their league. They all had their faces ashened white when William's body shone in a mix of lights.
Black, green, blue, and gold… Four colours appeared and shone alternatively, one after another, forming some sort of pulse waves that emitted from his body as a centre, then moved outwards towards the world around.
With every hit, they felt like they were fiercely slammed by something they would never be able to stand a chance against. With every hit, their bodies rose in the air, and flew for a few metres, before fiercely hitting the ground.
"Damn you kid! Why does it always end up this way whenever you try to do something? Screw you!" Sloth screamed in pain and anger, as this was by far the most embarrassing moment he ever faced in his entire life.
And yet he didn't mean to be angry at William, he was terribly worried about him. Everyone was also feeling the same. If they were feeling so terrible from such power, then how about William who was in the centre of all this?
This power didn't come originally from William, all could easily tell that. In fact, William was desperately trying to fight against such power, using everything he had, while the backlash of such a fierce clash released these pulse waves.
If they felt so terrible from the backlash of these waves, they couldn't guess what he was going through.
"We need to help him!" Anjie screamed at the top of her lungs while trying to stand up from the last brutal fall. Everyone else wanted to help, but none got what he was going through.
"Dammit! If I just knew what he was doing in the first place, I may have learnt what to do!"
"He saw through your fate, your past, present, and future," Anjie was terribly worried over William, and couldn't control herself from telling everyone this.
"This… But he didn't have the needed elements for that…"
"It's something complicated, but I'm telling you he can do it!" Anjie knew there wasn't much time left for William here, "he can access a special world, one that can give him insights on anyone and everything. Yet there is a risk of backlash, and he is just suffering from it."
