"Don't worry, Chester." When Chester was worrying, Debra said, not too far away from him, "I picked out the Fighters of the Twelve Stars myself. And I have already thought about the situation you said just now."
Debra was still monitoring closely at the fight while she talked. Her eyes showed she was very confident.
Chester felt relieved when he heard that. Based on his understanding of Debra, he knew she would not say things she was unsure about.
Archfiend Antigonus was on the move again. He attempted another try to break through the formation. The terrifying power spread out. The Fighters of The Twelve Stars got blasted away. Their faces paled.
Chester was right. After many hours of fighting, the Fighters of The Twelve Stars' internal energy had depleted. However, none of them backed out after they got blasted away. They moved their bodies and dashed to surround Archfiend Antigonus again.
Archfiend Antigonus sneered. He looked so arrogant as he teased the Fighters of The Twelve Stars. "Are you going to continue to waste your time with me? All of you are just getting a bit closer to your death. This is the last chance you got. Surrender and bow to me. I'll spare your life for this one last time."
He spoke with such arrogance. After many hours of fighting, he knew that the Fighters of The Twelve Stars were exhausted. Their internal energy was running low. It would be a waste to kill them because their formation was unparalleled. He would benefit from having them serving him because he needed to revive the fiend race and needed talented people.
However, the Fighters of The Twelve Stars were not moved by Archfiend Antigonus' offer. All of them looked indifferent.
"You want us to bow and work for you? To help you bully others? Stop dreaming."
"That's right. We are part of the Hidden Hero Sect. Even if we die, we will also become this sect's ghosts."
"Do you think you can break through the formation when our internal energy is consumed? You're wrong."
