BXBX NOVEL Chapter 430: Rumbling
Rain wanted to tell a joke in that situation, but he couldn\'t when people were dying in droves around, so he just nodded at her. Using Magic Boost and Limit Breaker alone, Rain was able to dash through the battlefield and maneuver between the waves of human and magic people without hitting them… few people could see him, and what they could see was basically a blur.
It would be nice if Rain could just attack everyone like that, but he couldn\'t. He had to keep a perfect stance to decrease the pressure of the wind on his body and to avoid creating blasts of wind with his supersonic movement speeds.
His reflexes were enhanced, but it wasn\'t like he could see everything in slow motion… so attacking and killing five targets in the blink of an eye was impossible for him, so he just looked for the special soldiers countering the large scales spells.
When Rain found the tornado spellcaster, he stopped moving and immediately touched the ground and then sent him flying upward with an earth pillar… Still, even though he was planning to pierce him in the sky with ice spears… the guy exploded even before it reached ten meters of height…
"... Damn you, Joanis…" Rain bit his lips in annoyance when the blasts of the wind echoed in the area, and the explosion claimed the lives of hundreds more soldiers. "I am a soldier. I can\'t preach that much about the importance of life when I killed hundreds as well… but you are really the lowest of the low."
Rain wished that he could have found the guy who could create these magic bombs and get rid of them already, but that was one of Joanis\' trump cards… of course, he wouldn\'t expose such a soldier.
Despite seeing their friends being sacrificed like that, the human army didn\'t stop and kept attacking fiercely… to the point that even the magic people began to be pushed back. At that point in time, Rain realized that the explosions were claiming more lives on the magic people\'s side, and that was why Joanis was so willing to sacrifice the human soldiers to win…
Rain stopped moving for a moment to think what he should do to prevent the enemies from achieving their goals… but even though he only stopped for two seconds, soon he regretted that… some giant guys, despite their size, sneakily approached Rain and tried to grab him from behind…
When Rain felt the danger, he immediately turned his body and enveloped his left arm with mana before swinging it… in the next moment, the two giants stopped in the air, and then their heads rolled, and then they exploded.
Although he used Impulse in the opposite direction while also using Limit Breaker and Magic Boost, Rain was hit again and engulfed in the spheres of energy… his Mana Barrier and Magic Shield protected him again, and those behind him, but everyone else had their flesh destroyed and their bones disintegrated… Rain\'s skin had some bubbles thanks to the heat and damage he ended up absorbing for the others when he stopped moving.
"These guys must be the ones who threw the rocks…" Rain thought when he felt a wave of warm energy passing through him and healing his wounds. Terra was already working. "I told her to stay clear… Anyway, it seems that Joanis can\'t afford not to conquer at least the capital if he is using his pawns like disposable resources…"
Rain considered dashing toward their camp and getting rid of Joanis and the king. they were probably the ones making the soldiers explode like that, but he didn\'t know if they were waiting for that… Besides, Rain didn\'t want to take the chances and leave Terra out of his sight. .net
In that short moment of hesitation… as if the enemies could read Rain\'s thoughts, they decided to go all out… the human army began to fall back, and all of a suddenly, the special soldiers all charged with all their might toward the magic people.
"Shit…" Rain bit his lips in annoyance and then raised a massive wall of earth that stopped their charge.
The wall trembled in the moment of the collision, but it was still able to stop the thirty or so special soldiers… Still, not for long.
A disturbing sound echoed in the area, and the bodies of the special soldiers began to glow. It only lasted for a moment, and then they exploded.
The special soldiers kept a fine distance away from each other… thanks to that, the explosion of their suicidal attack reached an area that was more than one kilometer longer in length. It goes without saying that it completely annihilated Rain\'s wall and killed thousands of magic people in its reach.
The explosions made the whole area in dozens of kilometers tremble, and some parts of the magic people\'s capital began to crack… that attack not only left a permanent mark on the area but also drew the attention of certain creatures…
The wall didn\'t fall, but its debris hit many people, mainly Rain, who didn\'t even escape the range of the blast of the attacks. He was pushed backward and almost fell, but soon he felt Terra healing him again… his arms needed that since the skin had been completely damaged by the attacks.
"I told you to be careful," Terra said after she approached while showing her swollen arms. It seemed that she was damaged by the debris as well. "At least this is a far cry from before... they only wanted to cause as much damage as possible on the army as a whole."
"My apologies; I didn\'t think that being careful with you also required some level of precognition," Rain said.
