Chapter 352 Threatening Weapons

“Come forth,” the attacks didn’t only affect my chariot’s shield, but it also decreased its speed remarkably. The shockwave coming from each explosion was enough to decrease my momentum in visible rate.

Yet at this moment, I summoned my first counter attack wave, ten thousand soulers.

Compared to the sheer number of enemies covering the entire ground till horizon, this number might seem small and negligible.

That might be true in other situations. With the presence of my spearhead deadly ability, this grand number didn’t look like anything much at all.

I knew the spearhead would affect these humans’ overall strength. But they weren’t using any of that to attack my chariot. So I summoned my boys, let them scatter over the ground, and started killing those humans.

My soulers were like plague against these weakened humans. They simply flashed fast, passing through the densely packed human forces down below, leaving behind a long trail of black fog and a long trail of dead bodies.

They were like a nuclear bomb, spreading in all directions in a really scary pace. Like a flower opening its petals, they spread over and started killing without any reservation.

What helped them though was the fact that my dear spearhead was still expanding his ability. Yet the energy he had seemed to grow thin as his body returned to look normal.

“Eat it up,” I pointed at the half of the crystal energy he had, “then eat another.”

“But…” he was able to speak, yet his voice came hoarse.

“Just do it,” this wasn’t time to hesitate or argue about that, “we are this close from attacking that damn portal.”

“Ok,” he didn’t seem to get what I was talking about, but he nodded in agreement in the end.

As he ate the other half of the crystal, his body returned to swallow and grow. The red light kept shining from his body as well.

But this time it seemed like he got a better experience in dealing with all this. He just expanded his ability further, and also his red beams of light kept growing denser.

He was evolving his ability it seemed. For me this wasn’t bad news. So I moved my attention towards the direction I desired.

“Time to face you, bastard,” I looked again at the direction of my fallen gods. The red beam was as thin as a thin silk thread from my place. It meant that the red beam was this close from getting depleted.

“Come here,” but I didn’t wait for it to die down. My boys got enough so far, and it was time to bring them on board.

*Fwoosh!* *Fwoosh!* *Fwoosh!*

Just their appearance here created a shock wave that I never saw before. Each one seemed to be a force of his own, enough to impact changes over a small zone around him.

Standing on my chariot, they gave me the impression I was looking at real gods, not fallen ones. They weren’t like Sith indeed or Nero, but at least they were matching the lower gods for now.

I knew this was just a temporary effect caused by their absorption of that red beam. It wouldn’t last despite I hoped it would.

“It’s enough for this battle at least,” I knew they absorbed energy and needed to digest it. Fighting was the best way to do that.

“Let’s clear our path to that damn portal together, keep attacking without any reservation,” I shouted while my chariot started to regain its former speed.

As my souler fanned out to kill the ground weakened human forces, the attacks coming at me started to grow thin and weaker.

Without anyone operating these cannons and deadly war weapons, there was no threat to my chariot for now.

Gaining my former speed, my chariot flashed like a bolt of lighting towards the distance. I crossed lots of lands filled with human forces, while the spearhead ability either covered them already or was still crawling at them like deadly snakes.

“There you are!” the closer I got, the more attacks coming from the front appeared. My chariot speed started to decrease once again, but I didn’t hurry to summon more soulers.

I just waited to see that portal. And I finally spotted it at the horizon.

It was like a giant arch made out of pure azure light. Wisps of smoke rose from it like it was burning for no reason.

As for it, the world behind it varied greatly from the world in front of it. Behind it I saw grand emptiness without any sign of life. But in front of it, dense layers of humans gushed out, racing towards the direction of the city.

“More weapons?” Just using the hawk eye skill at this moment made me see the first new weapon coming out from this portal.

It was like giant trebuchets. Yet instead of having that long arm with a basket at the end, they had long spears that were like grand pillars.

Each one was as thick as ten humans standing back to back and forming a circle. I didn’t know why but seeing these made me feel threatened.

These things… They weren’t just toys for war. They looked like killers, real weapons to destroy mighty foes just like me.

And their number was increasing by each passing minute. So far, almost twenty or more of such grand weapons have appeared.

The first instinctive reaction I got was to go and smash them to pieces. Yet I felt little regret about that.

I imagined such weapons working for my army. I never saw anything like this before. So why not dream about having some for myself?

“It’s risky,” yet I dropped this thought for now. They looked really dangerous. I didn’t know if these giant arrows were strong enough to break my chariot’s shield or not, but I felt they weren’t just as simple as that.

“Attack these damn things,” if I still had five minutes or more to arrive at them, my fallen gods could attack them from this far.
