Lord Death Is Now Back Home by Chris novel Chapter 1209

Chapter 1209: The Mantis Stalks the Cicada, Unaware of the Oriole Behind

Upon hearing this, Chris Shelby thought for a moment and agreed that Peterson Abernathy made sense. There was no point in fighting before finding the Dragon Emblem fragments.

With this in mind, Chris Shelby nodded and said, "Alright!"

Seeing Chris Shelby agree, Peterson Abernathy breathed a sigh of relief. Although he had more people on his side, Chris Shelby was formidable. If they fought, his side might not gain the upper hand.

Peterson Abernathy glanced at Chris Shelby again, slightly surprised. "Chris Shelby, I didn't expect you to have knowledge of ancient formations. How powerful do you think this one is?"

Chris Shelby pondered for a moment before replying, "This formation seems to be a defensive one. If attacked, it has a strong rebound force."

Peterson Abernathy nodded. Although he didn't understand formations, he had seen the fate of the Abernathy family member earlier.

Peterson Abernathy asked again, "Chris Shelby, how do you think we can break this formation?"

"I'll give it a try," Chris Shelby said, drawing his sword.

With his formidable physique, ordinary attacks couldn't harm him. Chris Shelby wanted to test the strength of the formation.

Seeing Chris Shelby prepare to probe the formation, Peterson Abernathy did not stop him. If Chris Shelby could break the formation, it would be ideal. If not, he would suffer from the rebound force. If Chris Shelby got severely injured, it would be a perfect opportunity for him to strike.

Peterson Abernathy's gaze fixed firmly on Chris Shelby. Chris Shelby gripped his sword with both hands, eyes locked on the restriction on the stone door.

"Open for me!" Chris Shelby shouted suddenly.

He swung his sword down hard. However, when the sword struck the restriction, it felt like hitting cotton.

Boom!

Suddenly, a massive rebound force surged back. Before Chris Shelby could react, he was flung backward. However, being strong, he only flew a few meters before stabilizing himself.

Tiger approached and asked with concern, "Boss, are you alright?"

Chris Shelby shook his head with a serious expression. "I'm fine. This formation is indeed powerful."

Seeing even Chris Shelby being flung back, Peterson Abernathy's face grew darker. He didn't want to stop here.

"Chris Shelby, is there no other way?"

Chris Shelby pondered for a moment and then said, "Have you noticed? This formation doesn't have any power of its own. The reason I was flung back was because of my own strength."

"Huh?" Peterson Abernathy was stunned.
