Chapter 1407 Unexpected Change Alice was still battling with the puppets. Even though she was bloodied, she still had a clear view of everything that was taking place. She had been keeping an eye out for Reynolds' battle. Seeing the man sending Reynolds flying the first time, her heart skipped a beat, but then she saw the Elemental Warrior behind the man and knew it was all Reynolds' doing. She couldn't help but applaud Reynolds' determination. The fact that he was willing to take a dangerous blow just so he would be able to land one of his own was courageous. The slight distraction made the puppets overwhelm her. She was starting to run out of breath due to the pressure from the puppets. Fighting two puppets of this level was something she shouldn't be doing, but she wanted to test her strength, and thanks to the man, she had to push herself even more. Her combined fire and ice attack was showing signs of evolving as the battle extended. She felt if she fought with them for at least thirty to sixty minutes, she would be able to see the evolved form. Her only concern was if she would be able to keep herself alive until then. She knew what she was capable of doing, and fighting these puppets for the next ten minutes would revolve around if Reynolds would be able to assist her at important intervals. If Reynolds is able to ensure she doesn't get hit by a powerful attack while also keeping the man alive, this would be a massive upgrade for her as her attack power would increase exponentially. On Reynolds' end, he flew towards the place the man crashed after being hit by the Elemental Warrior. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶 The man wasn't able to dodge the attack, and even though his prepared attack hit the Elemental Warrior, it wasn't enough to negate the full impact of getting rammed into by a full speed Peak Venerable Elemental Warrior. The man lay on the ground gasping for air as blood repeatedly poured out of his mouth. The man had an incredulous look on his face. The scene of Reynolds separating from the Elemental Warrior was repeatedly playing in his head even with the pain he was going through. He quickly disconnected his pain receptors in his body. After playing around with the human body on such an extensive level, he knew a thing or two he could do in situations like this. He had to keep himself conscious, and he knew there's a chance he might pass out from the pain. Of course, he knew the downside of doing this, but at the moment, there was no way he would be able to think properly while going through so much pain. He had assessed his condition and knew that he could survive it and even still fight as long as he doesn't feel the pain. Since there was grade seven Peak Venerable on his side, he didn't have anything to fear. The puppet would attack Reynolds while he tries to get himself together. Reynolds was about to charge at him when he suddenly sent the puppet after him. Reynolds was forced to stop and retreat. He looked at the puppet and knew that he couldn't neglect it. He turned to look in Alice's direction and his expression changed. He separated from the Elemental Warrior and let it deal with the puppet while he rushed to Alice's aid. With a lightning attack, he sent one of the puppets flying. The puppet, although at the Peak didn't sense Reynolds rushing over and the man didn't have the time to even send the information over to them since he was more concerned about fixing his damaged body. Alice felt relieved the second one of the puppets was sent flying. With her focus placed on just one puppet, she started to gain advantage over it. Reynolds also used the opportunity to properly help her, slicing off one of the arms of the puppet. This was the cons about puppets. So long as the necromancer doesn't pass any information to it, it wouldn't stop its initial command. When the man sent them after Alice, his command was for them to kill her. They have no instructions on what to do with Reynolds, so they didn't try to attack him. This gave Reynolds the freedom to do whatever he wanted. Fortunately for the puppets, he wasn't at his full strength since the Elemental Warrior was dealing with the grade seven puppet. Reynolds was strong, but not strong enough to kill a Peak Venerable without the help of his puppet. "Don't worry, I can deal with them. Do not let him escape." Alice said when she saw Reynolds still helping out. She was worried about the man escaping when they're not focused on him. Reynolds nodded and rushed back to the battle with the puppet. The man was still seated in the same spot. He hadn't tried to make any moves. Seeing this, Reynolds didn't bother with him. This was an opportunity to take out this puppet. Once he achieves this, the man was as good as dead. He would be able to defeat the man with ease. He merged back with his Elemental Warrior and started attacking. The second he merged with it, the attack power increased and the puppet which had the advantage lost it in an instant. It wasn't able to deal with the sudden change and was quickly pushed back by Reynolds. 'Yes. I can end it before he comes to.' Reynolds felt inspired. Once he takes out the puppet, the battle was over. After getting the advantage, he didn't give the puppet any chance to regain itself and he released attack after attack on it. The puppet started to show signs of some parts of its body starting to break apart. 'Just a little more.' Reynolds pushed, and just as he was about to end the puppet, it disappeared. Well, not completely disappearing, but it shrunk into a bead and flew to the man's outstretched arm. "Hahaha, thank you, kid."
