Chapter 1354 Weird Clouds

Once the light faded away, the thick layers of clouds were the only thing I could see.

The clouds were so thick and dense, not allowing me to see anything through. However, from the fierce bellows of wind coming from the world around me, and the heavy silence that prevailed here, I could tell I appeared no on land but in the middle of the sky.

And that was totally unexpected for me, for anyone on my side.

How come the portal opened at such a place? That was a question that I didn't have an answer to.

Perhaps they had total control over the direction of the portals, being able to change the place they opened at, even making them open in the middle of the sky like this situation.

But if that was true, then how come I landed in the middle of a great number of enemies? How come I felt like I was getting pressured by the enemy, and getting hammered fiercely with their defences?

Something felt weird here. But that also explained why I lost track of almost half of my bones each time I took a batch out.

They were taken out in the middle of the air, and that made more than half of them fall to the ground, away from my reach.

Quite an unexpected move from them! But why did I feel that my enemy this time was different than what I initially expected?

Neither the Silence race nor the locusts got the ability to fly. If they used methods to fly in the air, then that meant they couldn't wide spread use such methods, right?

If so, then why did I have the feeling that this wasn't just a random place selected for me to arrive at and I appeared in the middle of an aerial base? And a fierce one as well?

That was quite weird!

And there was another weird thing here… These clouds… They weren't a normal layer of cloud at all!

My shield count here was simply too many to count, and yet they just expanded to cover up an area of a few miles only.

It was supposed for my shields in such gathering and count to push for lots of miles, at least tens of miles.

But reality proved otherwise. The shields seemed to clash against these clouds.

The more I looked, the surer I became.

"Let's go," standing idle in place wasn't going to help at all. I needed to see what was going to happen with this entire world.

I didn't move my chariot towards the ground first, but towards this weird looking cloud layer. After all, I got surrounded with clouds from all directions, and I couldn't tell where the ground lay.

By common sense, I should head down. Yet in the middle of all this, I couldn't give any clue about the right direction.

The moment I started moving, I felt like the clouds got stirred in response.

I didn't like any of this. I felt like I was inside the belly of a colossal beast, and these clouds were its acidic secretion.

"What's wrong with these clouds?" The moment I got close, everyone around noticed what was going on.

It became clear that the clouds were moving with my chariot's movement, seemingly converging and getting thicker at the direction I was heading towards.

"We are going to see what these clouds are soon enough," I said in response to Isac's words.

And the next instant, I gave the order to my fallen gods to start their attack.

The attack came fiercely as they passed fast through my close by shield's outer layer, and then a violent explosion erupted.

The entire cloud layer got stirred up, as thick tongues of lightning appeared. They arched and twisted, ending up facing my fallen gods' combined attack from all directions.

Seeing such a scene drove fear even inside myself. It became clear now that these clouds weren't simple at all.

​ The clash kept going on for a long time, and I didn't give the order to stop my fallen gods from continuing their brutal attacks.

Instead, I kept pointing in different directions, asking them to keep firing at these without any pause.

The clouds couldn't handle the pressure after half an hour. The lightning kept losing at all fronts, especially when I made sure to distribute my fallen gods' attacks over a wide area around.

The lightning tried its best, but it proved futile to try and block all the attacks. When they failed, my boys' fierce attacks finally passed through, and started to hit what looked like fragile eggs.

The clouds started to burst open like they got smashed against something they had no power to resist against.

And by then, the scene outside became clearer to me.

"Damn these friends… They also joined in! This is crazy!"

What I saw was the world beyond the thick layers of clouds. It was still the sky, but there wasn't just air outside. I saw tons of flying creatures, holding different types of weapons, and wearing long helmets that covered up their faces.

But they got three horns coming out from both sides of their heads, and one from the middle of their foreheads.

They looked quite ferocious, giving me the impression of being quite the trouble.

Seeing them made me realise the enemy decided to throw in everything they got!

By the appearance of those flying fierce looking giants, I knew the enemy used all the three races under their leadership here.

The Silences, the locusts, and finally those flying fiends. Only the two natural disasters remained.

And that made me feel quite the urgency here. The enemies weren't taking things quite smoothly as they should be.

For a reason, they developed such a fear towards me, one that drove them insane.

They were using everything at their disposal, and that meant if I pushed them much further, they might activate the two natural disasters much earlier than I thought.

What a bunch of pussies they were! Didn't they have a backbone or balls or what?
