On the high skies of planetoid Oyan, giant birds made of flames screeched at a man in blue clothes as they reached him.
Their red-flamed bodies burned blue for a moment and they were about to explode.
The man had already experienced these blasts and was prepared. With a swipe of his hand, the snow on the ground reached all the way to the clouds and enveloped the flame birds.
Then the snow hardened into an ice shield and sealed up the unruly creatures.
But before the man could catch a break, the ice shield started to crack and thin but potent beams of fire seeped out of it.
"Not again," The Commander slapped his hand in the direction of the flame and a huge mass of snow from the ground flew to the sky and enveloped the ice shield.
The flame creatures tried their best to break out, but after realizing it was impossible, they decisively blew themselves up.
The ice shield blasted into pieces and the temperature of the surroundings quickly rose.
No matter what, he solved the current cris—
"Have you forgotten me?" A sweet but poisonous voice sounded behind the Commander.
Hearing those words, the Commander channeled his ice aura and rushed to the ground.
Seeing the man escape without even trying to fight her, the Abyssal in Crimson covered her mouth as she let out a burst of laughter.
But her scarlet eyes were brimming with killing intent.
She had just received a message from Pluto.
'Varian destroyed the teleportation formations. So, we can only rely on the other plan. Hurry up.'
Even though there were no detailed explanations on how he did it, Alvira was impressed nonetheless.
'Facing the army of an entire planet, surviving two hundred wyverns of his level and still coming out on top. What a man!' She was filled with admiration towards this 'monster' she never met.
His feats were something even she had to look up to.
But that's precisely why…
'You shouldn't be allowed to live.' Alvira's expression turned cold.
Alvira Everblood shook her head and threw those thoughts out. There was someone who was specifically assigned for Varian's death.
The plan was foolproof. In fact, it could even be used on a Sovereign and they would also die. But the Abyss Emperor insisted on using it on Varian. It sealed his fate.
'This planetoid is the hardest one for me. Once I conquer this, nothing can stop me.' Alvira's body burst into flames and she shot to the ground like a meteor.
The snow melted upon her arrival and for a dozen-mile radius, even the water evaporated, leaving only a barren land.
The Commander looked at the female Abyssal's power and gritted his teeth.
Oyan was an ice planetoid. His powers were boosted and her powers were suppressed.
Yet, she was still a bit stronger than him, a peak level 8!
'If she goes to other planetoids, she'll be unstoppable.' The Commander's eyes flashed with resolve and he decided to kill her at the cost of his own life.
"Die!"
The temperature plummeted and a chilling sensation spread in Alvira's body. Before she knew it, snow reached her feet, and was about to crawl up.
"Hmph!"
Alivra lit up like a human torch and the falling temperature was forcibly raised. But the snow infused with lots of water mana refused to melt.
"Is this the best you can do?" Alvira glared at the human glowing in soft blue light.
The Commander poured even more mana into the snow. The snow around Alvira got colder and more resilient.
Alvira's legs, up to the calves were quickly covered in snow and they were completely frozen!
"You bastard!" Alvira elementalized and turned into an Abyssal outline of flames.
A red light flashed and Alvira reached the Commander in a split second. The Commander also elementalized and turned into human-shaped water.
Then they collided.
The fire and water blended as they competed at the most primal level.
Water tried to douse the fire. Fire tried to vaporize the water.
From the clouds, one could see a whole area spanning a dozen miles shining red and blue.
The land first froze and snow formed, then it melted and lava was created, which froze again and turned into snow.
The cycle continued again and again.
The land went from ice to fire and fire to ice and the speed of exchange only continued to increase.
From an aerial view, the land was turning red and blue at a breakneck speed. The speed continued to increase until the difference in the turn reached a negligible point. Then, the land turned red and blue at the same time.
At that moment, the world seemed to stand still.
Then, the whole planetoid shook for a moment and the land of conflict, spanning a whole fifteen miles was destroyed, leaving behind a deep crater.
At the center of the crater lay, the blue light flickered on and off before it permanently went off.
Then, a red light shone and exited the crater.
Alvira Everblood's face was slightly pale and she was bleeding in several places. But that's all. She didn't have even a single major injury.
Her condition wasn't very bad, and she could easily slaughter the human army on Oyan. But she didn't do that.
Instead, she reached a secret location and checked a transparent crystal floating there.
"Did it begin?"
The crystal had a strand of black energy. With each passing moment, the strand continued to grow.
"Really," Alvira expanded her fire sense and noticed countless thin dark lines entering the crystal.
She followed one of the dark lines and found it originating from the battle. From a dying human soldier. Another dark line was coming from a dying Abyssal.
As the humans were trying their best to kill as many Abyssals as they could before they die, thousands were dying at any given second.
So, the entire battlefield was filled with these thin dark lines!
Alvira smiled as she glanced at the crystal for one last time. It was already a tad thicker than when she arrived.
The female Abyssal's lips curled up. Since the situation was already like this, she decided not to intervene and left for another planetoid.
Only her ominous laughter lingered.
"Fight! Kill! Die! Whatever you do, you are digging your own grave! Humans are in for a nasty surprise. Hahahaha!"
