Chapter 2461 Pursue
Caught in a double bind, Jared had sword marionettes attacking him from above and below, leavinghim with no way to escape.
In the next second, he pressed his palms together, and two radiant beams of light suddenlyemerged, creating a shield above his head. He planned to block the onslaught of a dozen or sosword marionettes descending upon him head-on.
The moment the sword marionettes made contact with his shield, they went berserk, desperatelycrashing into the barrier in an attempt to shatter it.
However, Jared's shield was incredibly sturdy and impregnable. Despite the relentless assault, theywere unable to break through it.
Although he managed to temporarily halt their advance from above, this was not a sustainablesolution. If this continued, his shield would eventually be overwhelmed and broken through.
Jared trained his gaze on the Dragonslayer Sword beneath his feet, his eyes gleaming withdetermination. Gritting his teeth, he propelled himself downward like a shooting star. He needed toretrieve his sword as quickly as possible, for he knew that his chances of getting away would beslim once those sword marionettes broke through his shield.
As he plunged into the midst of the sword marionettes, dozens of them were immediately alerted.Exuding a frenzied aura, they brandished their weapons and charged toward him.
With a swift motion, Jared grabbed the Dragonslayer Sword and turned to flee.
As he ran, he whipped out the Divine Bow and pulled the bowstring, releasing a barrage of arrowsthat shot toward the oncoming sword marionettes.
Since he couldn't escape upward, he had no choice but to flee to the side. Once he had movedaway from that area, he planned to return to the lake above.
The dozens of sword marionettes erupted with furious roars, disregarding the rain of arrowsunleashed by Jared. They charged recklessly toward him, showing no regard for their own lives.
“This bunch of mindless b*stards really have no fear of dying, huh?” he muttered to himself.
As Jared gazed at the sword marionettes, who were all Manifestors, a chill ran down his spine. Herealized that if he were caught by them, he would likely meet his demise in an instant.

Just then, the dozen or so sword marionettes finally broke through his shield and joined forces withthe main group before charging toward Jared. They pursued him relentlessly, seemingly determinedto prevent him from taking the Dragonslayer Sword.
Seeing that, Jared summoned all his might to draw the bowstring taut and, with a fierce yell,released a barrage of arrows imbued with Ultimate Force at the sword marionettes.
In the blink of an eye, the arrows found their mark on several sword marionettes, yet their strikesproved futile in bringing them down. His assaults failed to halt the relentless advance of the swordmarionettes.
Despite releasing dozens of arrows in rapid succession, the power of each projectile wassignificantly weakened, leading to non-lethal strikes against the sword marionettes.
Just as Jared was fleeing and fending off the sword marionettes, a formidable aura suddenly surgedfrom behind him.
Startled, he whipped his head around, and upon seeing what was behind him, he broke out in acold sweat.
To his dismay, he saw countless sword marionettes approaching him from behind, closing in on him.
The number of sword marionettes in this group alone exceeded a hundred, and now both squads ofsword marionettes were converging toward him. It was a daunting sight that terrified him to the core.
“Where the f*ck did these b*stards come from?”
Jared couldn't help but curse out loud. He knew all too well that the sheer number of swordmarionettes gathered together held an unimaginable level of power. Even if they didn't attack, theintimidating aura emanating from them alone was enough to crush him.
He had no choice but to change direction and flee. At that moment, a peculiar scene was unfoldingwithin the sword-cleansing lake. Jared was running frantically ahead while a horde of swordmarionettes was pursuing him relentlessly from behind, their sinister figures looming ominously.
With no time to spare for counterattacks, he could only rely on his agility and nimble footwork toevade their relentless pursuit. Thankfully, their lack of sentience and sluggish movements grantedhim a temporary respite from imminent danger.
