The Martial Unity

Chapter 1978 Angelic Encounter

"If you can get your hands on the source of the Mellow Manifold, then…" Kane's eyes lit up with greed and wonder. "That would be insa-"

RUMBLE

A wave of peril washed over them.

The two of them leaped away, catching a hazy glimpse of the threat that surged towards them.

What they saw shook them.

It had six enormous brilliant shining wings that emerged from a humanoid torso. The creature didn't have a head; instead, bearing enormous eyes across the entirety of its body. Eyes that were each in a trance.

"Angel…" Rui whispered, stunned.

The angel species was one of the most bizarre and exotic species of the Beast Domain. It was the least understood species among all apex monster species that resided deep within the Beast Domain, leading extremely solitary lives.

Rui's expression grew grave when he noticed a fourth pair of small baby wings below the three enormous pairs that drew all the attention.

The eyes across its body slowly turned towards Rui, fixing on him.

Within them, an inhuman, malevolent bloodlust palpably shook the air. "Get out of here." A chilling instruction escaped Rui as his dark eyes sharpened.

Kane gulped, immediately adhering, before taking off.

Unfortunately, the angel had no intention of allowing that. Its wings flapped a single time, generating an enormous wind current that it then manipulated seamlessly to attack Kane.

It was within Rui's prediction.
