Hero of Darkness Chapter 695: The Ambush

Chapter 695: The Ambush

1 YEAR LATER.

Under the blanket of bright moonlight and chilly breeze that gave a sense of serenity…

Crackle!

Crackle!

A densely forested region had thousands of trees caught on fire while the surrounding 45 kilometers region was either getting destroyed at dozens of places by attacks from the ent.i.ties fighting in the air or the wars.h.i.+ps that were shooting hundreds of magic cannons at the gigantic monstrosities flinging elemental attacks at the army of 50 thousand soldiers in white and green armors.

Over this region, was an impenetrable white and blue intangible dome that had isolated this entire s.p.a.ce from the outside world.

If one looked at it from outside this dome, this region had nothing else but lush greenery and a tranquil environment while the wild monsters and animals made small noises.

Inside the dome however, the army was desperately fighting against these powerful enemies who ambushed them out of nowhere.

This army consisted of Elves, Humans, Demi-Humans, Hybrids and many people of different species that no one had ever seen in the Rakos or Vulcan empire.

MRAAA!!

A ma.s.sive blue flying monster with two heads similar to a s...o...b..ll stork in appearance that carried hundreds of soldiers mounted on its back bellowed and fell on the ground after a 50 meters long ma.s.sive trident made of world energy and hot red magma stabbed through its neck.

"No!!" screamed one of the elven soldiers in terror as their group fell amid tall trees and long vines.

The large tree trunks shattered from the impact and the majority of the group was either stabbed or poked through by large splinters.

Among the now dead hundreds of bodies, only a handful survived. But before any of the lucky people could rejoice in being alive…

THUD!!

A ma.s.sive foot of a t.i.tanic figure as big as a mountain stepped on this group, instantly flattening all of them including the flying monster into meat paste.

Similar scenes of brutal ma.s.sacre occurred across this battlefield. But as the fight between these gigantic figures, and wars.h.i.+ps continued, few new members arrived.

BANG!!

Hundreds of lightning bolts struck a white and yellow colored wars.h.i.+p that sized 200 meters in width as a masked archer in black, blue and yellow armor floated 3 kilometers high in the air. The clouds in the sky turned dark as hundreds of lightning strikes were summoned by this saint archer.

This masked archer comparable to a 2nd stage saint charged his bow and just in a couple of seconds, a ma.s.sive 100 meter tall phantom of a white and golden bow appeared above this gigantic wars.h.i.+p.

"No!! This can't be! We're all going to die!" shouted one of the members of the piloting crew inside the c.o.c.kpit of this wars.h.i.+p as they saw this terrifyingly powerful bow ama.s.sing all the lightning bolts in the sky into one.

Shoot!!

The sound barrier broke twice as the archer launched his killer move and a 10 meter wide and 80 meter long destructive and terrifying lightning bolt shot itself towards the gigantic wars.h.i.+p.

BOOM!!

Blast!!

The ma.s.sive lightning bolt shot and blasted the entire wars.h.i.+p carrying over 10 thousand people and soldiers, tearing it apart from the inside and exploding everything in its way as it completely destroyed the entire wars.h.i.+p in seconds.

Thud!

BANG!

Thousands of pieces of debris and charred corpses that were cut into dozens of pieces dropped from the sky while the flesh and bones of the soldiers were ground to dust because of the explosion.

While the masked archer took down a wars.h.i.+p by himself, a swordsman covered in stark-white armor from head to toe appeared 20 kilometers away.

In front of this being with bright blue eyes, another wars.h.i.+p with hundreds of magic cannons and thousands of people manning it appeared 5 kilometers away in the sky.

"Attack!!" ordered the captain of the wars.h.i.+p and all the cannons charged themselves to attack and pulverize this warrior who seemed to be a legitimate 4th stage saint.

But before the wars.h.i.+p could launch their magic cannon beams made of different elements… this swordsman quickly unsheathed one of his swords.

Slas.h.!.+

He grabbed the hilt with both hands and made a vertical slas.h.i.+ng attack using the curved sword that had blue lightning running its blade.

However, nothing appeared out of this blade and no attack was released yet the swordsman slowly put it back in its sheath.

Kaching!

The moment he finished sheathing his sword…

Snip!

The entire wars.h.i.+p was cut open in half even from this far distance and both parts fell apart.

Thousands of people screamed in fear as the wars.h.i.+p started falling on the ground.

BOOM!!

BOOM!!

Both sides exploded after dropping on the ground as the charged mana cannons malfunctioned at the same time… killing more than 10 thousand soldiers and wars.h.i.+p personnel.

There was no sense of empathy or regret in this swordsman's eyes instead, he felt relieved that he finished the job in a single swing.

Swoos.h.!.+

Swoos.h.!.+

Swoos.h.!.+

On the western end of the battlefield, three new figures appeared in the sky.

A white-haired figure in a black and blue longcoat and battle gear with a pitch-black greatsword on his back stood in the center.

"I have taken care of everything. No one can send a distress signal outside of this dome or even get out of here." spoke a mage in white and blue robes with a black and golden scepter that had a blue dragon coiling around it.

This mage stood with a proud expression on the former figure's right side.

The white-haired figure in the middle then looked to his left.

"Are you sure you want to do this?" he asked a tall hooded individual in white and green robes.

"As hard as it may be… I have to do it." responded the hooded figure on the left whose appearance wasn't revealed in the slightest.

Schwoah!

Just then, a man with shoulder-length black hair and green eyes suddenly appeared out of thin air and bowed towards the three figures.

"We found her and also killed all of her saint-ranked guards." reported this a.s.sa.s.sin.

The three figures nodded in response and all of them flew as they followed the a.s.sa.s.sin.

Meanwhile at another scene of battle and a broken down wars.h.i.+p…

"Ha ha ha ha!! Haha haha hahahaha!!

This will be the first time I get to experiment on someone of your standing. Haha haha!!"

And at the center, was a mage clad in black robes and a yellow scepter. He and hundreds of undead monsters were now surrounding a female figure whose body was riddled with wounds and her clothes were sprayed with blood.

She was completely terrified of the undead monsters surrounding her as she cried for help and begged to be spared to the mage who was laughing like a maniac.

Swoos.h.!.+

The white-haired figure along with the mage and the a.s.sa.s.sins appeared on the devastated battlefield that was filled with undeads who were tearing through the corpses of soldiers.

The girl had her eyes wide open in disbelief as soon as she looked at the white-haired person in the middle.

"You… Why are you doing this? Aren't you afraid of the consequences?!" she shouted in a tone filled with anger.

"If anything happens to me… They will all come for you.

He will find and kill you himself!" she threatened this group of saints in front of her.

But the next moment, her countenance changed as she realized that her spiteful words could make the situation very dire instead.

"You people work for money, right?

I will give you 5 times whatever they're giving you. Just spare my life." she proposed and pleaded at the same time.

"Ha ha ha! Do you think I'm doing this for money?

You haven't even realized who you f.u.c.ked with yet." said the white-haired person in black and blue attire as he released his immense killing intent at the female in front of him.

"What did I even do for you to go this far?

We aren't even enemies or had any conflict with each other." asked the female with incredulous eyes as she pressed on an open wound on her left shoulder, trying to stop the bleeding.

"It's not what you did that angers me so.

It's who you did it to." responded this figure in a jarring voice.

Just then…

Swoos.h.!.+

The final figure also appeared behind the four individuals.

It was none other than the figure in white and green robes who previously stood with them.

And right before this bleeding and terrified female, he removed the hood and revealed his face.

"Impossible! How are you still alive?" asked the girl with a horrified expression as if she had seen a ghost.

Her entire body was s.h.i.+vering in shock and she revealed her relations.h.i.+p with this mysterious figure.

"Brother."
