Chapter 604: The Fourth Anchor
The spearman drove toward the chamber while the chain wielder attacked Leon from the side.
Their plan was simple. One would force Leon to protect the door, leaving the other free to strike him. The leader continued feeding power into the breaching disc, and fine cracks spread across the chamber's outer ward.
Leon raised an ice wall across the steps. The spear pierced it in two blows. Before the third, Leon folded the distance beneath the attacker's feet.
The man completed his charge at the bottom of the dry pond, twelve paces from his target. Ice closed around his legs.
The chain wielder used the opening. Qi-hardened links struck Leon's shoulder and tore through cloth and flesh before he caught them. Lightning ran along the metal. The attacker released the weapon, but the current had already reached his arm and disrupted its circulation.
Leon crossed the space between them and broke the man's manifestation with a second strike.
