Awakening the War God

Chapter 120 The Flying Rings

"Maria, you holding up alright?" Gabriel expressed concern.

It was rather hard for Maria to take on two opponents alone.

Maria sprang up and casually examined the bloodstains on her left arm.

Her eyes glinted with determination as she said nonchalantly, "Don't worry about me, it's just a sting. I must take down that busty lady over there!"

At times, her spirit surpassed even that of most men.

A minor injury meant nothing to her.

"My apologies, according to our previous teaming, she's mine to deal with. Let me handle her!" Gabriel felt a bit awkward, and he abandoned Joseph and charged toward Victoria.

He needed to find a way to eliminate one more opponent, or this fight would become unwinnable.

Currently, it appeared that Victoria was the weakest link.

"Wanna make a run for it? You'll have to go through me first!"

Joseph, who had the upper hand, wasn't about to let Gabriel run amok.

He violently flexed his arms, causing his shirt sleeves to burst open. Each arm bore a copper ring.

"Flying Rings!"

Joseph lunged forward, releasing both copper rings.

"What the heck! He's got another trick up his sleeve!" Gabriel exclaimed, taken by surprise as he quickly dodged.

The flying rings spun through the air, following an unconventional path, not flying in a straight line. Then, they made an eerie arc for Gabriel.

"Hmm?"

In his haste, Gabriel raised both arms to block.

One of the rings was deflected by the God-Forbidden Handcuffs, but the other managed to slip through underneath and struck him forcefully in the abdomen.

This was a devastating blow, sending Gabriel tumbling backward once again.

"You're in for it now!" Joseph laughed heartily as he retracted the flying rings.

Without missing a beat, he charged forward and unleashed the rings once more.

Gabriel swiftly got back on his feet, used a nearby pillar to spring into action, and leaped with all his might.

With the added propulsion, he increased his speed and narrowly evaded the flying rings.

The rings missed their mark and collided with the pillar, creating a substantial crater.

This demonstrated the terrifying might of the flying rings.

"This guy had yet another ace up his sleeve!" Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

Gabriel seethed with anger, realizing he had underestimated Joseph's prowess.

With Joseph wielding the flying rings, his strength had skyrocketed to a whole new level.

In Gabriel's current restrained state, there was no way to secure victory.

He had to find a way to remove the handcuffs; otherwise, success in this battle seemed impossible.

Meanwhile, Maria, Lone Wolf, and Victoria locked in battle once more.

Maria exhibited the fierce determination.

Her Wind and Thunder Steps propelled her through Lone Wolf, and her Wind and Thunder Fists zeroed in on Victoria.

This move finally bore fruit. Her powerful punches sent Victoria flying.

However, it was a risky maneuver. She had fully exposed her back to Lone Wolf.

Seeing the opportunity, Lone Wolf couldn't let it slip away.

His two claws converged and lunged toward Maria's back.

Just as the blow was about to land, Maria twisted her body to the limit.

Her feet felt as heavy as lead, yet she spun around like a top, completely avoiding Lone Wolf's attack.

Not only did she dodge Lone Wolf's strike, but she also used her shoulder to push Lone Wolf away.

This move was named Tornado Spiral!

"Well done!" Gabriel cheered, witnessing Maria's remarkable feat. He needed to step up his game as well.

With that in mind, he charged toward Lone Wolf like a wild beast.

He leaped into the air and employed a powerful push against the ground.

Losing his balance due to Maria's prior attack, Lone Wolf could barely react when Gabriel launched his sudden attack.

Instinctively, he crossed his arms in front of his chest.

"Boom!"

Gabriel's kick was incredibly forceful, propelling Lone Wolf through the air.

Lone Wolf's body crashed forcefully into a nearby car, creating a sizable dent in its frame.

Moments later, he coughed up a mouthful of blood.

Seizing the opportunity, Gabriel leaped into action once more.

He slammed the accelerator to the floor, propelling himself towards Lone Wolf's face.

Just as it appeared that Gabriel would land a powerful blow, Lone Wolf's expression darkened, and he suddenly opened his mouth.

Out of nowhere, a long needle shot forth!

"Hmm?" Concealing a hidden weapon inside his mouth, that was a move Gabriel hadn't anticipated.

His instinctual reaction tightened every muscle in his body, and suddenly, he felt an aura envelop him.

This aura became his armor, deflecting the needle effortlessly.

"What is this...?" Even Joseph, an experienced fighter, was taken aback.

He recalled his master's words about martial artists in a realm where they could materialize an aura as armor, a skill possessed by only a select few in the world.

Unfortunately, his master hadn't disclosed the name of this profound state.

"It's impossible! If Gabriel has reached this aura state, he shouldn't be dominated by me even with his hands bound!" Joseph muttered, puzzled.

Determined to kill Gabriel, he resorted to his trump card: the Duo Rings!

Two rings, one in front and one behind, were released from his arms with a sharp, whirring sound, hurtling towards Gabriel in mid-air.

Gabriel, who had just repelled the needle with his newfound aura, executed a sideways kick that struck Lone Wolf squarely in the face, sending him flying.

The entire scene had been baffling.

It seemed that Gabriel's body had instinctively reacted to the danger, enabling him to materialize the aura and deflect the needle.

But now, he couldn't actively manifest this protective aura.

Just as he pondered this, a whirring sound came from behind him.

He glanced back to see Joseph's Duo Rings approaching.

"Damn it!" Gabriel was vexed.

Joseph's rings didn't adhere to a predictable trajectory, defying Newtonian physics.

Their flight path was erratic and highly dangerous if they made contact.

Not willing to take any chances, Gabriel leaped into the air. With his hands bound, he decided to use his legs. Raising his right leg high above his head, it descended with the force of a blade.

The terrifying force cleaved through the air, creating a vortex that surged toward the Duo Rings.

But just then, the front ring abruptly decelerated. The rear ring collided with it, resulting in both rings deviating from their original paths.

In doing so, they narrowly missed Gabriel's leg.

"This..." Gabriel was taken aback.

In mid-air, he was unable to maneuver freely.

Clenching his teeth, he braced himself, allowing the God-Forbidden Handcuffs to block the front ring.

However, he couldn't stop the rear ring.

"Bang!" The ring struck his right side with a vengeance.

The excruciating pain contorted his face, and he plummeted from the sky.

"Gabriel!" Maria, who had been fiercely battling Victoria, shouted.

She had initially been dominating Victoria, landing two solid punches.

With a few more moves, she would have defeated her.

But now, Gabriel was in peril.

Maria reluctantly abandoned Victoria and rushed to Gabriel's aid.

"Gabriel, you're in deep trouble this time!"

Joseph, who had retrieved his rings, wasted no time charging at Gabriel once more.

This time, he employed his Duo Rings again!

"Don't come any closer!"

Gabriel, injured and desperate, saw Maria charging towards him and felt a sense of urgency.

The unpredictability of the Duo Rings was beyond Maria's current capabilities.

With this in mind, he didn't hesitate and attacked first.

This time, the trajectory of the Duo Rings changed once again.

Gabriel blocked one, but the other hit him square in the head.

"Buzz!"

Blood streamed from Gabriel's head, and his eyes rolled back.

He lost consciousness completely...
