Rising from the Ashes BY Only For You Novel

---- Chapter 3377 Azrael's voice tore through the camp over the broadcast system, rattling every corner of the base. Soldiers who had been dead asleep jolted awake and threw off their covers, only to find a gleaming blade waiting for them before they could make a sound. They went back down just as fast, without even a gasp. Nyx and Shiloh moved through the camp like two angels of death, cutting down anyone in their path and leaving destruction in their wake.

At the same time, the 50 Cavendish fighters were right there with them, tearing through structures and supplies with a kind of furious energy that was almost electric. Andrew was not part of the demolition crew and had stayed up on one of the watchtowers. After sending the signal to Cormac in the darkness below, he grabbed his greatsword and locked his eyes onto the central command building. A split second later, the steel-reinforced door exploded off its hinges with a single kick, and a massive figure in black combat armor stepped out.

The man was broad and towering, gripping a spear that had to be nearly 20 feet long. Every inch of him was covered, sealed tight in full armor with not a single patch of skin exposed. Even ---- his eyes were shielded behind a visor, replaced by two mechanical lenses that blazed red as they swept the chaos around him. Andrew leaped into the air and brought his sword crashing down toward the figure who was clearly the supreme commander of the Three Empires' Allied Forces. The massive arc of energy was about to slam into the man's armor when the giant suddenly looked up at him.

Even through the armor, Andrew could not see his opponent's expression, yet he still felt a piercing, ice-cold gaze lock onto him. The man snapped his spear upward, and Andrew's massive blade of energy was instantly shattered into nothing. Andrew's eyes narrowed, realizing this opponent had to be at the Beyond Mortal level as well. In other words, he was no weaker than Andrew himself. Nonetheless, the stronger the enemy, the stronger Andrew became. He dove straight down with both man and blade, slashing fiercely at his opponent. A deep, vicious laugh rumbled from inside the armor.

"Andrew Lloyd, we meet again." ---- With a deafening crash and a spray of sparks, the man blocked Andrew's greatsword with his spear and forced it aside. "My old friend, don't tell me you have forgotten me, Azrael Cassata." Hearing the mocking tone, Andrew's heart stirred, and he let out acold laugh. "So it was you, Marshal Cassata of the Fraines Empire. It had indeed been a long time." Azrael let out a savage roar that blasted Andrew's sword from his grip, then rocketed into the sky. Blue flames burst from the back of his armor like a jet engine igniting.

"Andrew, dare to fight me somewhere else? Since you came here to die, | will make sure you do not leave alive this time." Andrew replied calmly, "Then | will grant you your wish. But as for who dies tonight, that is still up in the air." The two powerhouses collided in midair, and Azrael focused solely on killing Andrew. A massive energy storm erupted above the camp as the two streaks of light chased each other across the night sky. "Those two are something else!" someone muttered "One of them is Mr. Lloyd, right?" ---- "Yes, that is him.

The other is the commander of the Three Empires' Allied Forces, Marshal Azrael Cassata of the Fraines Empire, the man known as undefeated." "| wonder which one is stronger." "Kill!" At the rear of the Allied camp, Cormac saw his chance and roared as he charged out first. The 500 elite fighters followed behind him like a pack of wolves. They crossed the open field in seconds and slammed into the outer perimeter of the Allied camp. Then, the slaughter began. Alarms blared nonstop throughout the Three Empires' forces, but the entire camp had already descended into chaos.

Edmond was furious beyond words. He had just rushed out of his tent, ready to unleash a massacre of his own, but the sudden assault led by Cormac made his heart jolt. He could only shout orders and call for the other soldiers to hold the line. Yet when he saw the enemy charging in like an unstoppable tidal wave, he lost his nerve and dodged aside, not daring to face them head-on. ---- A chilling thought swept through him. The hundreds of thousands of troops stationed here were on the brink of total collapse!
