System vs Rebirth-Novel

'The way they move…' Clara narrowed her eyes. They started coming toward this giant crocodile to stop Clara from inflicting more damage. Even the Stone Lord would have a hard time since a few Peak Level Demons changed their target to him.

On the one hand, Clara didn't want to let this demon do whatever he wanted. On the other hand, this sudden shift would be a bit disadvantageous for Shale. His position was in the same direction after all.

Clara and the Stone Lord would have a hard time noticing if those demons suddenly changed their target to him.

At the same time, the Plant Lord was not far away. So, his safety would be at risk. Although Clara didn't know about Noel's plan, she still knew what would happen if the Plant Lord raised a complaint to the Demon Banner Army.

So, she might have to let go of the giant crocodile. After all, this call was similar to the one it used to cause chaos inside the facility.

There might be a fourth Superior Demon that got called to help him.

Two elders and three captains should be able to handle four Superior Demons, but their fort wasn't strong enough to contain all these demons and their condition wasn't at their peak due to the chase. Unless they were prepared to sacrifice their lives, they wouldn't be able to kill these four Superior Demons.

However, Noel didn't agree with their way of thinking. The Plant Lord wasn't considered one of the weapons since he had planned for his demise. At the same time, they still had a former captain whose strength rivaled Shale as well as the Fleeting Arbiter.

With this lineup, Noel was ready to grasp the entire battlefield.

He poured all his Spiritual Energy and shot the Undying Phoenix amplified by the Fire Heart.

*Cry!*

The phoenix let out a cry that alarmed the battlefield. After all, this powerful flame was heading straight to the crocodile.

*Roar!*

*Roar!*

*Roar!*

A few demons jumped straight into the phoenix's trajectory and blocked the phoenix with their own bodies.

*Boom!*

Still, the remnant fire dispersed in the area. The momentum kept it going until it was about to reach the crocodile's body.

Unfortunately, a few more demons rose into the sky and blocked them. They sacrificed their lives so that the Superior Demon could live.

What they didn't realize was that the reason why Noel released such a thing was to show Clara and the Stone Lord something.

"!!!" The Stone Lord and Clara hurriedly turned around, finding Noel getting besieged by five Peak Level Demons. Because of the previous attack, one of the Peak Level Demons managed to hit him and blow him to the wall, causing the wooden wall to shatter and Noel's body to be planted on the stone wall.

Despite having five Peak Level Demons as his opponent, Noel actually did it. It felt like Noel was telling them to keep hitting the crocodile until it died.

'Noel left the fort to bring the last reinforcement… Don't tell me, there is another captain around us. But because of the current situation, he is hiding and preparing for the next attack? This means there won't be any more Superior Demon and reinforcement for the enemies.' Clara recalled all Noel's words before the exploration.

She immediately pointed at the crocodile while shouting, "Stone Lord!"

The Stone Lord's body shook. He understood what she wanted.

'Fighting a few Peak Level Demons while hitting a Superior Demon? Fine by me. I might have dedicated my life to research, but I'm not weak!' The Stone Lord stomped the ground with his staff while releasing all the Spiritual Energy he could muster.

"El Rolem."

Suddenly, the ground started shaking. The tremor was so strong that they thought an earthquake had struck this land.

The ground gradually cracked as a huge hand suddenly emerged from the crack. The hand pushed the ground as if it was trying to lift up something underneath.

It turned out a giant golem made of stone came out of Earth. Its size was comparable to the crocodile.

The golem started moving toward the crocodile, planning to have a brawl. During that time, the few Peak Level Demons had gotten close to the Stone Lord.

The latter stomped the ground with its right foot as a few spikes emerged from the ground, almost piercing their bodies.

"!!!" The Peak Level Demons noticed the change in the Stone Lord's expression.

The Stone Lord glared at them while releasing a huge amount of Spiritual Energy from his body. It seemed he was planning to kill the Superior Demon with the golem while handling these few Peak Level Demons with his spell. He said coldly, "Come, little demons. Just because I'm old doesn't mean I have grown rusty."

Clara couldn't help but smile. She had heard the Stone Lord's reputation. He was among one of the oldest elders in the Tower Association. His knowledge and strength were truly at their peak.

Although the Tower Association never put a ranking among the elders like the Demon Banner Army, people always considered the Stone Lord as one of the strongest elders.

Since the Stone Lord had sent the golem to help her take down the crocodile, she didn't have anything to fear.

There were many demons coming toward her. Some of them had already jumped into the air, trying to catch her.

However, Clara waved her hand, shooting the thin, sharp thread from her fingertips.

The demons that got hit straight by the strings ended up with a hole in their bodies, while the demons that got hit from the side got sliced into pieces.

Since she had cleared the area, she kicked some bodies like a foothold, allowing her to jump back to the crocodile.

The crocodile was looking at Clara with a frustrated look. After all, Clara had closed his path to retreat and the golem was advancing without caring about the other demons.

If this continued, he might really lose his life here.

The crocodile wanted to let out another roar to gather more demons, but Clara's threads suddenly came from behind, circling around his mouth. The moment it tightened, the mouth was completely shut.

"Noisy. Be a good boy and shut your mouth," Clara said with a cold tone.
