“Protect the bunker! Protect the bunker!” With Lucias Vyn and Assistant Professor Vyn in the bunker and the door locked, Lady Marza O’Gul became the one in charge: “Push them back! Push them back!”

The devastating hit delivered by Lucias Vyn onto the leaders of their enemies - Soren Lupei and Carol Summers gave them a big window of chaos and disarray for them to exploit, and Lady Marza O’Gul did not waste even one second of it.

Carol Summers was knocked far away from where she was one she tried to ambush Lucias Vyn and her brother, even though some special artifact of hers saved her from the fate of Soren Lupei, she still seemed to be shocked and shaken, and as a long time enemy of hers, Lady Marza O’Gul could not help but had her eyes fixated on the figure of Carol Summers, and had readied a specifically asked for Blade of Fade, enchanted by Lucias Vyn herself and forged by her most trusted weapon smiths, along with a spell in her right sleeve.

Just when Carol Summers retreated to the middle position of her and Soren Lupei’s teams, two figures in cloak lunged from the shadows behind her with their own Blades of Fade in their hands.

“Crack!” Some kind of passive protective artifact of Carol Summers triggered, and a dome shaped energy shield appeared around her, the two cloaked figures bumped into them while charging like running into a wall, and then they were blasted away by two shots of pale grey fire released from her hands.

Just at the very moment the dome shaped energy shield appeared, Lady Marza O’Gul launched her attack - the special Blade of Fade provided to her by Lucias Vyn was coated in a thin layer of shadowy energy and cruised around the ground in ankle-high airand creeped towards Carol Summers like a dedicated snake. While her Blade of Fade was on its way, Lady Marza O’Gul released three metal artifacts shaped like vajras, and with her chanting of a long spell, the tips of those artifacts shot out three beams of red, yellow and blue energy at Carol Summers.

“Carol Summers!” Lady Marza O’Gul yelled with an amplified voice while she was floating in the air: “Today will be your doom! ”

Carol Summers looked up at Lady Marza O’Gul and activated her shield once again to guard herself against the attacks. The three energy beams of three different colors were quite powerful, even though she was maintaining her shield at almost full force, the field still cracked up in many places from the strikes.

“Die! Die!” Lady Marza O’Gul feigned a reckless and furious rage as she pushed her artifacts to release waves and waves of attack, pinning Carol Summers at the same place.

“Melkan! Tell your forces to aim for her!” Carol Summers sensed there was some hidden tactic against her and she immediately shouted at the lieutenant of Soren Lupei.

Just when the Blade of Fade launched by Lady Marza O’Gul crawled past a few of the witches and warriors of Carol Summers and was just a few meters away from Carol Summers, an energy wave was released from the underground bunker. And the next moment, hundreds, if not thousands bolts of dark lightning shot from the underground bunker, tearing the entire bunker into shreds.

The absolute majority of these dark lightning bolts shot at the different places of this castle, and some of them shot at some members of Lucias Vyn and Assistant Professor Vyn’s teams. And one bolt of dark lightning crossed over the space, piercing through several vampires and warriors and struck at a blade that was creeping towards Carol Summers. And amongst the team of Lucias Vyn, the cloaked figure who held the gem while they were in the room of the insignia door was struck by the dark lightning and was ripped apart - his face covering was blown away, and his head dropped onto the ground, cracking up completely like it was made of fragile porcelain. The figure’s body, however, turned out to be made of worms, scorpions and snakes, and reeked of a foul scorched smell after being destroyed by the lightning.

Before anyone could decipher what was going on, the cries and moans of thousands of voices came from almost every angle. And it was at this moment, both Carol Summers and Lady Marza O’Gul noticed that the teleportation and portal disruption array underneath the Hellinger Castle was somehow deactivated, along with some other defense arrays that serve as barriers preventing people in this castle from using portals.

While everyone in the underground armory was stunned and too scared and worried to act, the entire castle started shaking. After a few seconds, the sources of moans and cries were heard closing in on this very location.

“This is bad. We should leave!” Lady Marza O’Gul sensed that the Blade of Fade she launched was completely destroyed by that bolt of dark lightning, but she had no time to feel disgruntled about the loss of opportunity, as she felt that the voices coming their way would be something they could not handle: “All magic wielders, portals, now!”

The two forces that were just at war less than a minute ago backed off from the area of battle. The magic wielders of each started conjuring portals for them to escape.

Lady Marza O’Gul took a look at Carol Summers before she backed into her portal, and Carol Summers was looking at her as well.

“Boom! Boom boom boom boom … ” a series of explosions came from above, shaking the underground armory some more and the very fabric of space had become fragile and unstable.

“Go! Leave now!” Carol Summers urged her team and Soren Lupei’s team before entering into the portal of her own.

Just this moment, a huge beam of orange and golden energy descended from above through the ceiling and swallowed the entire bunker. A huge shockwave exploded from the center of the underground bunker, and both Carol Summers and Lady Marza O’Gul were thrown through their own portals.
