Chapter 35: Interruption
Chapter 35: Interruption
During the serious situation, all of the leaders stop talking and look at the above seriously. Some of the leader guards are confused at the sudden change of their leader behaviour.
At this moment, “My… My, how bold of them.” said one of the elf leaders while flare his mana.
While all of this happens, outside the meeting palace, “Guard sees something strange?” asked Sylvan towards the elf guard that was protecting the meeting palace.
“Nothing, Si…” before he finishes their sentence they feel something coming from the sky.
Looking at that something coming towards Roundel city from the sky at fast speed, “Sound the alarm!! Employ the Code Blue!!” command Sylvan to other guards. *TENG* *TENG*
Not long after that many alarms sounded around the city. All the guards immediately get into their position. While various blue colored magical cannons emergence from atop of all the treehouses.
Without waiting any further, “Open Fire!!” a series of commands sounded through the city. *ZUNG* *ZUNG* *ZUNG* As the magical cannon releases massive energy toward the thing that is approaching them from the sky.
Hit by the magical cannon, the things that look like a meteor crumble into pieces. However, there are a lot of these meteorites that keep approaching the city at fast speed.
While the cannon keeps firing without stopping, a black and dark red magic circle appears around the city ground. A second later a humming sound heard from it. *ZING* *BZZTZ*
From the magic circle appear various kinds of monsters. Noticing the intruder, “GUARD, PREPARE TO FIGHT!!” as Sylvan’s voice heard through the city while he grabbed his spear.
A moment later, all the emerging monsters immediately fight with the residence and guard of the city. All the guards cast the spell simultaneously and create roots all over the city [3rd Circle – Combination Entroot].
The monster couldn’t resist the root attack and got entangled or pierced by the roots. Although the situation looked chaotic, most of the monsters immediately killed the moment they appeared.
Most of the people that reside inside the Roundel city are at least grade 5 above people. As for the monster side the majority of them only consist of grade 3 and 4.
During this chaotic moment, A huge meteorite came above them. All the magical cannon cannot even make a dent on it or hold it back.
Noticing this, Sylvan who is slaughtering with the monster, “Change the cannon into laser mode!! Focus on that meteor!”
The cannon changes its style of fire and becomes a sort of laser towards the gigantic meteor. However, all of them only give a little damage to it.
At this moment, the dome of the meeting palace is open. A large hand made of mana appears and flies towards the meteor.
The hand becomes bigger in the air and grabs the gigantic meteor before crushing them like a sand castle. Because of the power, it creates a huge shockwave in the air and crushes the other smaller meteorite.
After a moment, the elf leader that controlled the hand noticed there was something inside the gigantic meteor that was already being crushed. Inside the meteorite, there is a small black globe that could withstand the power of the crushing power of the hand.
After it was exposed with the air, it suddenly exposed and released a thick miasma towards the surrounding. While this phenomenon happened, an ancient yet dreadful sound heard from it.
“KKRTT.. ARRF AOOO… ZTTTSS….” None of the leaders or the residents of Roundel city understand this dreadful voice that seems to echo all over the Firuman.
One of the quick witted elf leaders immediately took out a piece of crystal and recorded the dreadful sound. After the sound comes to an end, the elf leader that controls the hand flares his mana.
“HMPPH!!” the miasma in the sky immediately gathered back into one spot before bursting into nothingness.
After that the elf leader went back to sit as nothing major happened. The other leaders also calm themself and sit back. The meeting palace roof also closed off once again.
As for the resident and guard outside the meeting palace, they take care of the corpse and kill the remaining monster professionally.
Inside the meeting palace, one of the elf leaders that record the sound create a magic diagram in the middle of the table and throw the recorder into it.
After a few mana reactions, it shows the same dreadful sound as before. *BTZZ* After another few moments, the sound changed into common language with the same dreadful voice.
“CIVILIZATION OF FIRUMAN… BECOME SACRIFICE… FOR THE ELDER ONE!! COME… FIGHT FOR YOUR DOOM…. IN SIXTY MOON.”
Hearing this, all the leaders become silent without anyone voice their opinion. After a few moments of silence, “The language that it used comes from the ancient era. We can assume that this comes from the new Monster Overlord.”
Only intelligent monsters that used phrases such as moon to measure the time.” said one of the elf leaders that took his recorder device.
“Ladies and Gentleman, I know that some don’t like the idea to band together for this. However, judging from the Monster Overlord behaviour it seems like an intelligent type monster with certain wisdom.”
“From our historical record, this type of Monster Overlord is the most cunning one and often causes more destruction than the others. It’s better to plan a counter measure as soon as possible.” added Vardon to the other leaders.
The Elven race has a long lifespan. Because of this reason, their record about historical events and monsters could be said to be the most complete one. They are also the most knowledgeable one about the monster overlord that keeps appearing through the past history.
Agreeing with the Vandor and the other elf leaders, the leaders decide to take this monster overlord more seriously. After that they begin to give a series of suggestions for the countermeasure of monster overlord.
Few hours later, they agree to make teams that consist of people from all of them. The leaders of these teams will be from the elf race as they have the most grade six people. To be fair the minimum requirement for power in this team is grade 5 people.
