Chapter 457 – Pluto Infiltration [4]: Blue Flash’s Help
A huge explosion reverberated across Pluto. But it wasn't one explosion. It was a lot of explosions occurring simultaneously creating an illusion of an even large and more dangerous explosion.
"Argghh! Where?" The mid-level 9 space abyssal, the temporary commander, Dorak frowned as he spread his space sense across the explosion sites.
All these explosion sites were at the 'critical' facilities. It was also the place for level 7s…
But now, while the facilities themselves were fine, the level 7s were all rolling on the ground.
Most were heavily injured, a few were lightly injured and a few were dead. The only common thing was that none of them were spared.
The soldiers immediately entered a state of emergency. The heavily injured ones were transported to critical centers, the lightly injured ones took potions and stayed in place while the dead ones were thrown into a container vehicle.
It was finished in less than ten seconds, and except for the sounds of abyssals' footsteps and vehicle movements, there was no other sound.
But Dorak didn't feel it was pure silence. He heard the silence as Dreamer's mocking laughter at his plight.
"How? How did you do it?" Dorak roared in anger and flew into the sky.
Standing high in the clouds, his terrifying aura enveloped the facilities nearby and he desperately searched every inch of the area to find a clue.
As he was about to give up, he sensed a tiny shard, almost the size of his hair in between the rocks.
"This?" He locked his space sense onto it and teleported it to his hand.
With a simple inspection, his grey face turned to pitch red and his chest heaved up and down.
"Son of a bitch!" Dorak looked around for Dreamer's traces as he cursed out loud.
The ragnarorks exploded on them, resulting in the situation.
But there's a big problem.
Since all these level 7s were keeping their senses on alert, if the bombs 'fell' from the sky or were 'thrown' from any direction, they should've noticed.
But there was no notice. None at all.
It happened all of a sudden as if the bombs were teleported to them…
"Shit!" Dorak's grey face turned and he hurriedly shouted to the level 8s below in the commander's building.
"Caref—"
KAAAA!
The sound of a mirror breaking reverberated, quickly followed by what seemed to be the sound of a vacuum sucking in everything, similar to when a huge beast opened its mouth and breathed in.
The air, the dust, the rubble, everything in its vicinity seemed to be pulled towards the building and the very next moment, the building cracked into pieces and shrunk into a short sphere of metal, flesh, and rock before it exploded out.
Boo—!
"Hmph!"
Dorak forcibly froze the space around the sphere and stopped the due explosion.
In the rubble, he recognized the corpse of an old abyssal, Qass. His body was sliced into pieces by the merciless space blades and was almost minced by the partial explosion.
Even though Dorak was rude and condescending to Qass, the last words of the old guy still rang in his mind.
"…I…I want to work until I see the end of humanity."
"Please give me one last chance. This is what I yeared since my teenage years."
"Fuck you!" Dorak's killing intent soared and his eyes shifted to a person. She was standing at where the building once stood, a couple of distinct auras surrounding her were quickly fading away.
"Blue Flash!" Dorak too felt the fading auras. All the level 8s…they were killed!
His aura exploded like a volcano as his space sense locked onto her. As a mid-level 9, he was actually stronger than her.
But…this gap wasn't bigger than the gap between level 9 and level 8. She used the gap, along with teleportation, and killed the level 8s who were distracted by the explosions.
"I got one more gift." Blue Flash said and snapped her fingers.
"Stop!" Dorak spread his space sense to stop whatever she was planning.
…But nothing happened.
"You played me?" Dorak growled in rage.
"Hehe, I did." Blue Flash raised her hand to cover her mouth but suddenly yelled. "NOW!"
"Huh?!" Dorak's space sense caught a spaceship entering his range.
Ghost ship!
Without holding back, Dorak channeled his space power and froze the space around the ship.
While he still kept an eye on Blue Flash, his focus was on Dreamer.
"DIE!" As he clenched his fists to explode the space and destroy the ghost ship, someone beat him to the explosion part.
Boom!
Boom!
Seemingly out of nowhere, sheets of metal appeared at the critical facilities and before the level 7s could even respond, with a flick of Blue Flash's fingers, blue spheres crashed into the metal sheets.
History repeated itself and huge craters were formed in front of every facility.
The roads, the vehicles, the fortifications were all gone.
Only the core facilities remained and due to the surrounding ground caving down greatly, it looked like the facility was actually on a small hill.
"A few still remained, eh." Blue Flash shrugged in a nonchalant voice.
No abyssal remained standing. They were all either dead or seriously wounded.
"You! You played me!" Dorak realized that she used Dreamer as a distraction for this and growled.
Without a second thought, he channeled his space power and clenched his fist.
The space around Blue Flash distorted as if it was about to be folded. The sheer pressure was enough to kill any level 8s.
But the woman in black didn't flinch and waved her hand. The space was forcibly suppressed and she disappeared from the position, appearing in front of a facility.
Dorak was already mad and with a single slap of his palm, the space surrounding the facility exploded.
BOOM!
Dust rose into the air and the world shook violently as if an earthquake occurred.
Dorak didn't wait for the dust to settle and the tremors to subside as he swiftly probed Blue Flash's position.
She was gone!
"Argh!"
He found her a hundred miles away and instantly teleported there, raising his space power to kill her.
If it was any other abyssal, they'd have noticed that the facilities' walls, which withstood all damage so far were already cracked open.
Unfortunately, or fortunately, Dorak didn't notice. He was too focused on Blue Flash.
Such behavior was the very reason he was sent to Pluto.
Ironically, instead of helping it, his presence here destroyed the situation.
