Chapter 229 – Destructive Battle
Looking at the others around him, Jason was sure of two facts.
One was that the others couldn’t even remotely comprehend what was going on because their faces were ashen pale, fully tensed up, and awaited the three present races’ arbitrary attacks on the city, due to their evil nature.
The other fact was that Jason perceived Shane’s dense fear, which he would have never expected, even if it was not something out of ordinary.
Suddenly, three massive mana bursts revered through the whole city, shattering glasses as they pierced into Jason and his small group who were the only humans left above the surface.
Luckily they were protected within the protection field, not like the rubble, stones, and trees that flew through the air as if they were nothing at all.
Without moving an inch, the small group tried to stay as unnoticeable as possible, which was hardly possible because Jason attracted an astronomical amount of mana a moment before, while the mana fluctuations radiating from the protection field were also distinct
However, the Deepsea scion and Ganasia envoys couldn’t care less, because the Shadow walker in front of them was stronger than both of them, which was definitely a bad sign.
If he went all out, the two of them would definitely die.
But even worse was that they had to protect their masters’ new toys, which they wanted to nurture into ultimate soldiers in order to let them conquer other planets and fight other hostile races.
For these races, humans with their soul-awakening had the highest possibility to become stronger than most ordinary races by using peculiar methods, as long as their soul was large and strong enough.
As such, they let most humans alive, without caring about their fights against each other, as it would only make them stronger.
In the end, they didn’t want to die and if they lost their masters’ toys, it would hardly be possible to survive or live in peace.
Humans didn’t know anything about this, except the few individuals that were picked up from them, and they couldn’t tell their own brethren, even if they wanted to, thanks to the advanced soul contract, they were forced to sign.
Looking at the erupting mana, Jason and the other youths could hardly breathe, while Old Drake was also having problems, due to his injury.
His masters and Till seemed to be fine if one were to disregard the fear spreading through their whole body.
Suddenly, Lux and the darkness enveloped woman were picked up by the Shadow walker’s mana and thrown through the pitch-black darkness door without being able to utter a single sound.
With this, Jason suddenly felt like the Shadow walker smiled at the other two races, even if one couldn’t see a difference within the envoy’s expression because he was completely enveloped in darkness.
“F**k” Shane uttered, and Jason couldn’t describe it better.
If a fight were to start right now, the Shadow walker didn’t have to hold back in order to protect his newly acquired human soldiers, while the Deepsea scion and Ganasia envoys were forced to hold back, protecting the humans next to them.
Otherwise, their own mana output might crush them accidentally, if they were to fight with all their might.
Taking one step forward, the Shadow walker’s darkness enshrouding thickened, as he released more of its almost black transmuted darkness mana.
Lifting an arm, it said:
“Let’s have some fun, my friends! It has been long since I killed any of your two races…Let me taste this feeling once again!”
Not wasting a moment, the whole sky was filled with thousands of shadow spears and blades, following the two foreign races’ with its ruby-colored eyes, when the Shadow walker envoy began to send out its first wave of spears with a loud *boom* clearly indicating its lightning-fast speed.
Jason couldn’t even perceive the shadow spears and blades accelerating before they pierced into the ground, where the Ganasia and Deepsea scion envoys previously stood, creating several dozen meter deep holes, as the ground shook violently.
Erupting with their fire physique and water affinity, the air around the Ganasia and Deepsea Scion race crackled, while the surrounding mana seemed to scream in anguish.
The mana around the three races became more distinct but Jason noticed the two young men behind the envoys, breathing heavily, because the mana around them seemed to seal off the oxygen supply.
Even if Jason sweated heavily, he was shocked to see such a fast attack from the Shadow walker, who stood calmly at the same position as before.
“Let me see how fast you two can run!” Jason heard when the shadow spears within the sky shot at the two foreign races, that were barely able to avoid them.
This was however not possible, without increasing their mana output, as the surrounding they charged past, was crushed under the high pressure, creating large fissures.
To Cyro-City’s misfortune, the shadow spears didn’t distinguish between living beings and inanimate construction, which caused several hundred skyscrapers to collapse, with dozens of spears piercing through them, as if they were butter.
In Jason’s opinion, this was the less problematic issue they had to face, because the shadow spears piercing into the ground, creating a more threatening problem when he noticed that they pierced through the underground shelter’s protection as if it was made out of rotten wood.
“Oh shit!” he subconsciously exclaimed, as Shane turned towards him worried, and seeing that Jason looked through the ground roughly where the underground shelter was supposed to be, he frowned deeply.
‘A simple attack like that can pierce through the underground shelter, which even I can’t do without using my full power?’ Looking at the Shadow walker, Shane’s fear intensified.
Forcing himself to avert his attention back to the battlefield, Jason noticed several bloody holes on the Ganasia envoy’s large body, as he seemed to take out a weird device.
The same device could be seen within the Deepsea scion’s hands, and astonishing enough, a high-quality holographic image appeared in front of both, while they continued to avoid the shadow spears.
In front of the two envoys, another one of their race appeared, and seeing that their envoys were injured and exhausted, they seemed to look around, only to see the Shadow walker who continued to manifest thousands of shadow spears in the air, without stopping.
Sighing, the 8-meter tall Ganasia, with dark red flames protruding out of his whole body ordered
“Just ignore the human we choose and survive, otherwise both of you will die…I can’t believe the Shadow walkers send Yreal on a lower planet..”
While the same scenario could be seen in front of the Deepsea scion, with a presumed female of their kind sighing
“Survive even if you have to team up with the Ganasia envoy for the time being…We can solve everything else later!”
Both holographic images dissipated, with Jason sighing, as he mumbled.
“Chaos descends…”
And with that being said, the Ganasia and Deepsea scion looked at each other, and with a faint nod, they released their whole mana, crushing the humans behind them, causing their head to turn, read with blood oozing out of their orifices, before their head exploded, with brain mass splattering everywhere.
Everyone released their full combat prowess now, causing the surrounding to stand still, as if time stopped ticking, while fissures littered the ground.
To Jason and the others, it seemed as if the Ganasia and Deepsea scion would work together in order to fight against the Shadow walker, which was the sole good decision they could make when the Shadow walker suddenly said.
“This is too boring..let me fetch another one to make it fairer” before he surprisingly switched to the human language with a crude and rough voice issuing
“Come out, punny human at the sovereign rank or how your ‘glorious race’ calls this stage… Play with us…”
Averting their gaze, the three foreign races looked at them, with an astronomical amount of mana scanning through all of them one after another.
Suddenly the mana, scanning them flickered violently, with all three races involuntarily taking a step back, as their eyes or what was supposed to be their eyes widened in shock.
Trembling, Jason could only faintly hear the Shadow walker whispering.
“Why the hell is a bastard from the Celestia race doing here?”
