Hundreds of blades flickered, seemingly alive as they aimed at the many origin points behind Ian, searching for the knight's weaknesses, forcing him to turn around.
"Interesting, is this targeting The Unyielding Fortress?"
Spirit energy surged all around him, Ian detonated his outermost Origin Shield, temporarily repelling the incoming blades. He sensed that these small blades appeared harmless, but internally, they contained multiple curses and Origin toxins like 'sealing', 'obstruction', 'pollution', 'erosion', and 'disturbance'. A mere scratch would require even The Unyielding Fortress's self-purification ability half an hour to overcome.
Even though he was now the Pioneer of Iron, Ian didn't want to be hit by the opponent. Yet, in that instant, Gaer had already launched himself backward, shooting a hundred meters away, as Anfa and 'Ian' also attacked together.
