Chapter 290 One Chance
The fourth day of the war between the Knights and the Ghouls. Laith, Ali, and Marwan were on the front lines together, with Hazim behind them in the heart of the army. The Black Knight was with them on the front, while Ibrahim and Jameel were on the right flank, and Hassan and Kamal were on the left flank. Hadi was in his position. His guidance and commands were needed more than ever after so many strong knights were lost and the numbers of their forces were reduced.Haitham insisted on joining the army and returning to the battle. Hadi finally convinced him to stay, promising that if they needed him or if something dangerous happened, he would let him return.On the front lines, Marwan was tired, and his exhaustion was evident, though he tried to hide it. He stood firm and tall, looking as strong as ever.However, Laith and Ali realized he had reached his limit, and at any moment, his body could collapse.Ali asked Professor Riyad for Marwan's current vital signs. Professor Riyad pro
Chapter 289 What's Left Of Us.
The third day of the war was finally over. As night fell, a grim silence had settled over the camp, punctuated only by the moans of the wounded and the crackle of distant fires. Ali, Marwan, and Laith were gathered around two cots in the medical tent where Malik and Ashraf lay, still and pale. The medics moved around them with urgent, hushed voices."Their condition is critical," one of the senior medics stated, his face etched with exhaustion and concern. "They could have severe concussions, or worse. We have to transfer them to the main hospital in the city immediately. We don't have the equipment to properly assess or treat neurological trauma here."Ali's heart felt like a stone in his chest. Just then, Professor Riyad's voice came through his private comms channel."Ali," the Professor began, his tone analytical yet heavy. "The blow you took, your armor absorbed the majority of the force. Furthermore, the intensity of the sonic blast you experienced was significantly lower than w
Chapter 288 The Shooting Star
Ali and Munir emerged from the relative quiet of the camp’s periphery back into the roaring chaos of the front line.The scene that greeted them was one of pyrrhic victory and fresh disaster. The flying Ghoul was gone, its form dissolved into the familiar black smoke, but in its place lay two still, armored forms: Malik and Ashraf, collapsed and unmoving on the scarred earth.“Malik! Ashraf!” Ali cried out, rushing to their side. He checked for pulses, his heart hammering against his ribs. They were alive, but deeply unconscious. “Professor! What happened?” he shouted.Professor Riyad’s voice was grim and laced with static from the residual energy of the battle. “They succeeded in killing the aerial threat, Ali. But in its final moment, it unleashed a point-blank sonic screech of catastrophic magnitude. The neural feedback was far more severe than what you experienced. They are in critical condition. You must get them to the field hospital immediately. Their brains need specialized
Chapter 287 The Old Ways
The Snake_haired Ghoul stood coiled in the center of a tightening circle of Knights, her snake-limbs lashing out like whips, forcing them to keep their distance. The Black Knight did not stand in the front line. Instead, he stood just behind the ring of his warriors, his dark, impassive helmet tracking her every twitch, every hiss, every subtle shift of weight. He was a strategist analyzing his prey."Press her! Don't let her breathe!" a Knight shouted, lunging forward with his sword.The Ghoul moved with liquid speed. A snake that formed her arm detached, wrapping around the Knight's wrist before he could strike, its fangs sinking into the gap between his gauntlet and vambrace. The Knight cried out, stumbling back as his comrades dragged him away, his arm already swelling and turning black.Another Knight tried a different approach, throwing a weighted net. The Ghoul simply dissolved the arm the net landed on into a swarm of smaller serpents, slipping through the holes and reforming
Chapter 286 A Dying Curse
Ali’s consciousness returned not with a jolt, but as a slow, painful tide washing over a shore of agony. The world resolved into the dim, canvas-filtered light of a field hospital tent. A groan escaped his lips as he tried to sit up, his head throbbing in rhythm with his heartbeat.“Easy, easy there,” a young voice said beside him.Ali turned his head, a wave of dizziness following the motion. It was the young Knight who had intercepted his fall. The boy was sitting on a nearby cot, a medic carefully wrapping a bandage around his wrist, which was visibly swollen and purpled with a nasty sprain.“The medics said you took a bad hit,” the young Knight continued, his voice full of genuine relief. “Alhamdullah you’re safe. We were afraid you’d suffered a severe concussion… or worse.”Ali’s memory was a blur of noise and pain. “What… what happened?” he managed to ask, his own voice sounding rough and distant.The young Knight finished with the medic and stood, flexing his bandaged hand with
Chapter 285 Aerial Threat
The world was a disorienting swirl of sky and sand for Ali. The sonic screech had short-circuited his systems and turned his bones to jelly. He braced for the killing blow, knowing he was defenseless in his fall.But it never came.A blur of armored silver intercepted his descent, a young Knight throwing himself into a desperate slide and catching Ali just before he smashed into the ground. They tumbled together in a heap of limbs and armor as a split-second later, the spot where Ali would have landed was obliterated by a concentrated blast of air from the diving Ghoul.Simultaneously, three more Knights, seeing their leader in peril, broke from the defensive line with a unified battle cry. They charged the serpent Ghoul, their swords slashing at the constricting coils around the Black Knight. Surprised by the sudden, coordinated assault, the Ghoul instinctively recoiled, her serpentine limbs retracting as she leaped back to avoid being surrounded, freeing the Black Knight from her c
