BXBX NOVEL Chapter 417: Survival
That was a bit annoying, but information was the bread and butter of war… Rain had been looking for a way to communicate with his friends over long distances, so perhaps he will learn that now.
Before he had the chance to do that, though, Rain learned something else. He had planned to train a bit before with the martial artists and the mercury warriors, but he didn’t have the chance to do so. Still, they began to show their best techniques now to wipe out the human army… the martial artists showed an weird almost suicidal technique.
When they charged to attack, sometimes they would ignore their defense in order to take down the enemies as fast as possible, as such, they ended up with spears on their stomachs.
Still, after pulling those out, Rain would see their backs glowing a bit as if they were emitting some mana from there, and then their wounds would heal in no time.
"I guess their fast healing has some tricks too… that makes sense, otherwise, their skill level would be way too above the other tribes," Rain thought.
While using his magic eyes, Rain found several invisible spheres of mana on their back… Rain couldn’t help but assume that those were large concentrations of mana that they stored overtime to use almost instantaneous healing.
While making mental notes to share that information with Terra later, he saw the mercury warriors making their weapons emerge from all parts of their bodies… clothes, boots… Some of them even made them emerge from their pores… that was a way to store their weapons that Rain didn’t want to copy, but he wondered if he could change it to become less gross and more useful.
After studying that for a while, Rain decided that it was time to speed things up a bit. He didn’t know how things were happening on the other battlefields, after all and he might have to send some help there.
Rain immediately charged toward the enemies and his charge alone knocked down some of them and killed others. All the weight of the impacts against his body made Rain feel his bones cracking, but he endured that in order to destroy their formation.
Still, Rain eventually changed his approach when he heard the sounds of explosions… they weren’t explosions of magic. When Rain looked toward their Frontline, Rain saw a red cloud spreading around their ranks.
"Shit… they want to seal Terra’s magic," Rain thought and immediately turned around and charged toward her.
The red cloud prevented Rain from seeing her location, but he charged through it without hesitation… only to be hit by numerous earth walls blocking his path. They were thick as they could be, so eventually Rain was forced to stop and his head began to spin.
As if that wasn’t enough, something weird happened… something grabbed him from behind. Before long, Rain felt the same thing again and again, unable to use his magic, Rain could only trust his senses and it seemed that the special soldiers wanted to lock him down and their intentions couldn’t be good…
When the fifth one grabbed him, Rain tensed his body and then used Limit Breaker. In the next moment, he jumped with all his might and that movement created a small crater on the ground… in the next moment, Rain crossed the sky and reached one kilometer of height. He saw the special soldiers looking at him without a care for their lives.

In the next instant, the earth mage created an earth spear that has pierced the hearts of all the special soldiers…
On the ground, Terra jumped away from the area and ordered the magic people to do the same since she knew about the anti-magic bombs… still, while the enemies threw those in her direction, they didn’t launch it that far… it didn’t take long for Terra to connect the dots… the enemies were targeting Rain again.
Unfortunately, before she could alert Rain, she saw him jumping to the sky while the special soldiers were hugging him… when they disappeared in the sky, it eventually happened.
In the sky above, a chain reaction of explosions ignited, giving birth to vivid purple energy spheres. These spheres rapidly swelled in size, their spherical shapes seemingly unable to contain the surging energy within.
All around, the battlefield fell into an eerie pause as soldiers from both sides turned their attention upward. The expanding energy spheres commanded a moment of silence, their pulsating brilliance holding everyone’s gaze.
Then, a thunderous release of energy erupted. Each sphere unleashed a powerful shockwave accompanied by deafening blasts of wind. The battlefield became a maelstrom of chaos as dust and debris swirled through the turbulent gusts, obscuring vision and sending troops sprawling.
The explosions’ impact resonated widely, shaking the very ground beneath the combatants. It was a breathtaking and frightening display of might that momentarily forced both sides to halt their furious battle, their attention drawn to the unexpected turmoil unfolding in the sky above.
As the explosions took place, Terra watched all of it with expectancy in her eyes… in the end, she saw Rain falling from that massive cloud of smoke, and after several seconds, he landed on his feet. Terra knew that he would survive that… he wasn’t the type to fall for the same trick twice.
Although Terra was still expecting to find Rain in a bloody mess, his body was mostly fine, he was emitting a lot of steam, and he had some burn wounds here and there, but aside from that, he was fine.
