Chapter 422 The war I
Amidst the ruined buildings, Misha paused in mid-air and narrowed her eyes, gazing into the distance. She wasn't alone—thousands of individuals from different races were running behind her floating figure. Some had animal feathers, some were humans, and others had lizard-like scales covering their bodies.
But no matter how they looked, all of them had a petal engraved on their foreheads. Or if not on their foreheads, it would be on other parts of their bodies.
Misha's grey eyes sparkled as she sensed countless presences rushing directly toward their location.
"Don't tell me... haha! So, they're coming towards us instead of hiding behind that dome they created."
She rubbed her chin, a little surprised by the situation. Nevertheless, she wondered where Diora and Hay were. The duo had left her behind to do all the work and disappeared.
"It's strange... with Diora's personality, she would have already attacked the dome. And why didn't she inform me that the people we're attacking are heading toward us to fight head-on?"
Misha grabbed the hem of her robe and elegantly turned around, her gaze falling upon the three divine-rank individuals, two elves, and one from the lizard race floating behind her.
"You three, take charge of the army. I am going to summon the monsters. After all, we can't afford any risks, especially after what happened to Ateo."
A flicker of coldness flashed in Misha's eyes as she mentioned Ateo.
"I swear, I want to tear apart the bastard who killed that prick..."
She began to float upward and her eyes started glowing ominously with a red hue. In the next second, a sweet melody wafted through the air.
However, only the lurking monsters around the ruined structures could hear it. Even the distant monsters in the forest raised their heads, drawn to the enchanting voice. In the end, all the monsters who heard the voice started running towards it as if they were under its control.
The three divine-rank individuals looked at Misha's figure and immediately ordered the countless people beneath them to move forward.
The air was filled with cheerful laughter as the huge army eagerly rushed ahead, itching for a fight. The land beneath them trembled as they jumped or ran through the many ruined structures, heading straight toward the last hope of the planet without any hesitation.
After all, they knew they had the upper hand, being stronger and more powerful, and with so many divine-rank, pseudo divine-rank, and countless other strong individuals by their side. This battle wouldn't even last long enough for them to savor it. It would probably be over before they could even fully indulge in their desire to kill to their heart's content.
Their eyes lit up when they saw countless people rushing towards them. Just like them, the people at the front shouted loudly and raised their weapons in the air to show they were ready for the war.
Dust filled the air and the ground trembled beneath their feet as the two opposing forces arrived opposite each other.
Istalian's eyes narrowed because the enemies didn't stop; instead, they attacked instantly without any care. Istalian and the older individuals around him ordered their people to attack. No matter what they can't back down now.
The clash of weapons echoed in the air, accompanied by the cries and shouts of the people who fought with their lives on the line. However, the individuals with black petals engraved on their foreheads were amused and treated the war as a little game that would soon come to an end.
In that moment, countless monsters appeared in the distance. Misha looked down at the battlefield with her glowing eyes and commanded the monsters to attack and take out the enemies.
The atmosphere grew tense as countless roars reverberated in the air. More and more monsters joined the battle, only increasing the pressure on the people fighting against the ones with black petals engraved on their foreheads.
Alec paused in mid-air, his eyes sweeping over the countless people below. Before long, the air became heavy with the sounds of clashing weapons and the unmistakable scent of blood.
Then he fixed his gaze on the three divine-rank individuals who floated in the distance. The trio seemed almost bored, as if they were just waiting for the battle to end, fully confident that it would be an easy victory. Moreover, they weren't alone. Many pseudo-divine rank individuals were floating behind the trio, as if waiting for their order to join the war and finish off the struggling souls.
The moment the three divine-rank individuals met Alec's gaze, they became alert. Not because of Alec, but because of the many people floating mid-air behind the blue-haired man. After all, they weren't aware that the enemy had so many pseudo-divine rank individuals.
Jian let out a shout.
"There are our preys! Guys, attack!"
The three divine-rank individuals were surprised when Alec, Nine, Carcel, Yon, Sinon, Regius, and all those who fought in close combat rushed forward toward them without hesitation.
Yue, Jian, and Mia commanded the mages with the tower's guardians from a distance and rained down one attack after another on the enemies. Jian jolted when a portal materialized beside him. Kyle stepped out from the portal with furrowed brows.
Jian formed countless sharp earth shards and threw them at the enemies, then gazed at Kyle.
"What happened? Also, what about Diora?"
Kyle massaged his temples.
"Gone... at least for a while. I'll take care of the divine-rank individual with lizard-like features. Bia is almost here too. She said she'll take out the woman who is controlling the monsters."
Then, he patted Jian's shoulder and gazed at Yue.
"I'm leaving for now. Contact me if something happens. Also, don't go jumping into something that can threaten your life."
After Kyle disappeared, Jian's eyes blazed and he jumped forward to battle a pseudo-divine rank individual. Not just him, Yue, Lara, and Mia also started fighting with the pseudo-divine rank individuals.
Istalian and the ones with (SS)-Rank strength or higher got themselves busy with the ones who had similar strengths.
Misha watched the battlefield and scoffed at the people who were struggling, trying their best to fight. She was a little taken aback when she saw so many pseudo divine rank individuals. But that's all because she knew she and the other divine rank individuals would be able to easily handle them.
Suddenly, the woman snapped her eyes in another direction where she sensed a large number of monsters rushing toward their location. Her grey pupils shook because she was not the one who summoned them!
So, why the heck so many monsters are rushing toward the battlefield?
"What is happening!? I know that the monsters on this planet are getting crazy because of the polluted air, but why are so many heading toward this place? Is there someone else on this planet who had the ability to command the monsters?"
