Global Awakening: Apocalypse Ender's Chronicle-Chapter 1032: Petrification

Far from the frontline, various leaders from other clans watched the battle unfold.

Travis, who was the Clan Leader of the Rank 3 Clan, Drakeheart Vanguard, felt excited as he saw the Super Soldiers and the Mech Frames dominating.

"Skybreakers..."

His eyes gleamed with excitement as the Skybreakers and Super Soldiers pressed the assault. The sight of Atlas plowing through assassins, Orion crushing foes with his aerial strike, and Cassius sweeping assassins aside filled him with satisfaction.

However, the presence of the Mech Frames was the most dominating among them all.

"Yes... this is simply awesome." Travis muttered.

"Shane’s Floating Fortress is just too good. The Overlord Clan will not win this. Lancelot should be thinking of escaping soon."

Since their walls are gone, the golems were defeated, and their assassins are getting overwhelmed, she knew that it was just a matter of time.

He clenched his fist, excitement coursing through him. "If Shane succeeds here, the balance of power shifts. Drakeheart Vanguard will rise alongside him. The Overlords will finally be humbled."

Although the Overlord Clan will not be completely eradicated, it will fall from the Clan Rankings!

If it falls, his Clan would obviously rise up.

In the meantime, Richard, the Bishop of New Haven, the Rank 4 Clan, also felt his blood boil seeing how the fight was so intense.

Draped in ceremonial robes, he watched with a calm but eager smile.

His hands rested on his staff, glowing faintly with healing energy, though he was far from the battlefield.

"The Fortress is magnificent," Richard whispered. "The Skybreakers, the Super Soldiers, the Wardens... all working in unison. Even Selvaris’ lightning cannot break them. The Overlord Clan is strong, but they are being pushed to their limits."

"I wonder what Lancelot would do this time." He mused.

There was a rumor that Lancelot himself was actually an Immortal. His possible Immortal Talent had certainly made him a sensation, but in front of a powerful force, it might not be so great...

He chuckled softly as he realized that Natalie was worrying too much about Shane. It seemed that he had just wasted his time traveling here.

"Ahh... No, Shane will win. And when he does, New Haven will be there to heal his army, to restore his strength, to prove our loyalty... That should be enough." He muttered.

***

Aside from them, there was also Lex, the Clan Leader of the Rank 7 Clan, Ironclad Collective.

Lex stood cloaked in black fabric, surrounded by fifty hidden guards. His eyes burned with frustration as he watched the Super Soldiers withstand the assassins’ strikes.

"Tch... damn them," Lex cursed. "The Fortress is holding too well. The Overlord Clan should have crushed them by now."

His guards remained silent, but Lex’s anger was just too much.

He slammed his fist against the stone wall of his vantage point. "If Shane wins, Ironclad Collective will be buried under his shadow. We cannot allow that."

He exhaled sharply, forcing himself to calm.

"Patience. The Overlords still have their Vice Clan Leader. Her Petrification Talent... yes, that will change everything. Once Shane’s army is weakened, we can still strike. My guards will move like shadows, and Ironclad will rise."

Furthermore, Lex also knew that the Overlord Clan had a huge Alliance...

There was no way they wouldn’t act if the main Clan was being attacked by an enemy...

He was sure that at some point, the Arcane Dawn Clan, the Crimson Shield Clan, or even the Sky Riders Clan would arrive to deal with the Floating Fortress!

***

Alexander Thorn, the Former Rank 1 Survivor, also had the same thought.

Deep underground, he sat in silence, surrounded by three hundred elite men. They all had Rare and Epic Talents and were waiting for the perfect opportunity to strike.

He was also confused since he couldn’t sense the other Clans that were part of the Overlord Alliance.

However, since he had Lancelot before, he knew that the man was scheming something...

"Maybe he’s waiting for Shane to appear..." Alexander muttered.

After reaching this thought, he calmed down.

Now, as the battle raged above, he couldn’t help but like the situation.

"Shane... His mechs burn energy, their soldiers bleed Spirit Points... They cannot keep this up forever."

He couldn’t help but hold his sword tightly as he felt that he would be making his move really soon.

"When both sides are broken, when Shane is weakened, and Lancelot is in despair, we will emerge."

His men heard this and nodded silently, their eyes were filled with anticipation.

***

Above ground, the Super Soldiers fought like those Juggernaut Zombies! They had completely ignored their defense as they focused on their attacks!

Mireya appeared behind Cassius, her dagger aimed for his throat. But Cassius moved with ease sincehis Slayer Token heightened his danger sense. He blocked at the last instant!

Bam!

"Impressive," Mireya whispered... After all, it felt like she was fighting against a Zombie Lord!

Selvaris roared. Suddenly, lightning split the sky.

"Assassins! Break them!"

The clash raged on...

Selvaris also started fighting in close combat. His Electricbrand Talent amplified with each strike and soon, he also started chaining arcs of lightning across multiple targets.

"Fall, you puppets!" he roared, sending another wave that forced three Wardens to lock their shields and halt their advance.

But the Overlord Clan wasn’t just relying on Selvaris and Mireya.

From the shadows of the inner wall, Lesley finally arrived.

***

The first to notice her presence was Kenji, in his Mech Frame...

"There she is... target acquired!" he muttered as he dashed forward.

Sheena was shocked and immediately shouted.

"Kenji, wait! Don’t rush in... that’s the Vice Clan Leader!"

But Kenji ignored her warning. His rotary cannons spun up, and with a burst of acceleration, he dashed downward to get higher accuracy!

"Die!" Kenji roared, aiming straight for Lesley.

Lesley’s eyes glowed faintly. She raised her hand, and a ripple of power spread outward.

Her Petrification Talent activated. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

The rounds petrified and Kenji’s Skybreaker froze in the air!

"What?!"

Stone‑like cracks began spreading across his mech’s plating... It didn’t end there! His thrusters started failing as the petrification effect crawled up!
