Minutes pa.s.sed, and the MechSuit up in the wall were all done charging. Due to the efforts of the melee fighters, the wall stood tall in complete safety without a single scratch.Bathing in a sea of beasts that reeked of death, the fighters faced tremendous pressure and nearly died a few times. But in the difficult condition, their efficiency when working together rose and they shone with a bright light in the middle of the gloomy battlefield.
Thankfully, there were no other cases similar to the winged gorilla and t.i.tanic serpent. But a beast, with a slightly weaker blood essence, had appeared in front of them. Thankfully, with their c.u.mulative effort, they took down the devil sp.a.w.n in the blink of an eye. Before it even had the time to execute any attack.
They had seen the might those creatures were capable of, and upon seeing the ravage done by the winged gorilla. The team had been fearing the appearance of another deadly monster. Thankfully, the creature they had fought seemed intelligent but wasn"t capable of strong battle strength.
The creature"s small corpse laid on the ground, with its white fur tainted and dirtied by the red soil under it. Its face, horrifying for anyone to see, as a recognizable expression laid on it. True fear and horror that could be empathized by anyone.
Thankfully, the dozens fighter didn"t pay much attention to the creature after killing it, or they simply didn"t have the time to.
Soon, the sky was lighted with many bright dots. A small army of a hundred MechSuit fighter came to a.s.sist the melee armored soldier that had been holding the defenses alone. a.s.sisted with their ranged weapon, they managed to regain the footing they had earlier, and with the melee users working in a tight formation, the battle completely tilted to the human side.
Deep in the heart of the beast wave, Fell fought right and left while hunting the fierce monsters that had a strong blood essence signal. He met strange creatures he never thought existed, and couldn"t help but feel a twisted sense of wonder whenever he slaughtered them.
Morbid thought filled his mind. But the s.p.a.ce that had just opened in his body cleansed his thought and gathered them in his sword. His sword intent turned sharper with his developing killing intent. And before long, Fell noticed that a strange veil followed his steps.
"I reek.", snorted the youth with a twitching nose. He took away his sword from the heart of lizard shaped animal with grey scales, and a face that resembled a skink.
He continued swimming among the dangerous beast, and before long had slaughtered a ridiculous amount of beast, a number so high that he had stopped counting them.
At some point, he noticed that the number of creatures surrounding him had fallen drastically. And whenever he moved, he sensed the blood energy escape from his position; he executed "Ghostly Stutter," but it didn"t change anything as whenever he moved, the fierce beasts would avoid him.
"f.u.c.k… hunting in those conditions isn"t worth the effort…", he thought before retracing his steps toward the west wall of the city. Thankfully, he had spent the night looking at the landma.s.s surrounding the city and had no difficulty in finding his way back.
He traversed a dense forest with tall yet thin trees that had a height of twenty meters for the shortest, and with a few trees that grew to ridiculous heights. His steps resounded in the silent forest, and even the corpses that laid everywhere were left untouched.
He began running, and before long, a heap of creatures appeared in the distance. As soon as he approached, a path opened in front of him, and the beasts began escaping while releasing numerous sounds and reactions that portrayed their fears.
"What the f.u.c.k…", mumbled Fell with a dumbfounded expression. His presence was felt by all in on the battlefield, and Fell easily made his way through the ma.s.s of fleeting vicious creatures. Before long, he made his way back to the small army of MechSuit, who noticed the miraculous event.
Under their metallic helmet, their expression varied from incomprehension to cheer fanaticism.
"Fell sure is amazing. How the h.e.l.l did he pop out from the Core?!", thought Johnny with a wry expression on his face. He doubted that the youth in front of him wasn"t a beast in human skin. Even he could feel the ridiculous amount of ominous energy that followed the young cultivator"s step.
Behind him, a gloomy veil contained the soul of the lives he had taken today. The most sensitive individuals could see the ominous and gloomy veil. But in the eyes of the one who didn"t notice the peculiarity, they only saw Fell walk as the beasts parted from his way — turning into a true deity in their fanatic gazes.
Fell sensed the piercing gazed that marked his body, he noticed their emotions with crystal clarity but wasn"t bothered by them. For a kid from the Core that had been ignored his whole life, this experience of being the center of attention was strangely pleasurable.
He accelerated his steps and soon arrived toward the position of MechSuit army. Behind him, the beasts didn"t dare to take a single step forward and only gazed at the city while releasing a few growls.
The veil containing the mult.i.tude of beast soul, and the odor of blood emanating from Fell served as a powerful deterring force that blocked the fierce beasts.
"Looks like you guys survived.", exclaimed Fell with a smile. He then turned around the beast wave, and a cold and gloomy expression flashed on his face.
The army of fierce animals turned into ice stones that constantly shivered. The temperature surrounding Fell sharply dropped down. His lips opened, and he drew a long breath before uttering a tremendous roar.
A shockwave spread from Fell. Mixed in, it was part of the energy and bloodl.u.s.t he had gathered during his fight.
"Scram!"
