Austr looked up into the skies, his eyes squinted in shock at what he had seen, it had come out of nowhere, and because the origin of this beam was camouflaging itself and making itself seem invisible, it had really looked like it was some sort of judgement from the gods themselves.
As if Thor, the ancient God of War and Thunder had suddenly been revived and had come here to unleash his divine judgement upon them!
The Ice Giant Vampire gritted his teeth in surprise, realizing the horror of the situation. Two of his subordinates were absolutely vaporized, and more than half of the Blood Shadow Beast as well were killed.
"Damn it… What sort of monsters are those?! Capable of doing such a thing while camouflaging in the skies themselves…?!" he asked in horror.
It was hard for most people to even fathom what Drake had achieved, after all, although he saw this as normal due to having been born with these powers, which he slowly developed, for most of the other people, this was completely abnormal and completely away from common sense.
Blasting people from the skies using a floating castle loaded with crystals that could take a lot of magic power from a person and unleash it as a beam was certainly not something normal!
The other Vampire that remained, an elven woman with long purple hair looked at the scene in utter terror…
"Austr, what the heck was that?! Two of us just died… right there! That attack… Austr, we are not ready to fight such an enemy! We should retreat! We could be fighting against someone too strong! What if it is a Rank 6 expert?! We won't stand a chance!" said the woman.
"Our task was to defeat the enemy, this is what our lady has assigned us to do, don't be a coward, Lily! Do as I say and charge forward, I've figured out that they take a few minutes in between attacks, now that they just attacked… it is our chance to get closer and figure out what they are!" said Austr.
"Grr… Damn it!!!" roared the Elven Vampire woman, named Lily, as she flew over her crow Blood Shadow Beast.
Austr and Lily flew up with the remaining army of Blood Shadow Beasts, as they reached up to the skies and finally managed to get closer to the "thing" they hit with their magic.
Austr could feel it! this was it!
Meanwhile, Black looked above the skies in disbelief. Who could be capable of firing such a powerful magical attack? If it wasn't an Immortal, it would only be someone with incredible power amongst mortals, the pinnacle of mortals, actually, Rank 6 Magus!
A Rank 6 Magus was the pinnacle of a mortal, they were the top dogs, in simple terms, and their power was overwhelming, any mortal that went against their might would be easily stomped without any problem.
They were capable of even manifesting in the skies and unleash powerful and devastating army-wiping attacks. It wouldn't be an overstatement to say they were already comparable to immortals in what they could do, the amount of insane mana quantities they possessed allowed them to conjure spells as if they had endless energy too, of course, as long as the spells they used were of a lower rank than them.
If the spell was of the same rank, it would still take a large chunk of their mana. But because of this, they were well known for just spamming low-ranked spells using their vast mana, covering entire armies' worth of space, and completely devastating it all…
"Could it be?! The one attacking us is… a Rank 6 Mortal?! Damn it…! Those Vampires… did they kick the bucket already?" wondered Black, as he noticed that most of the sect was completely devastated by now…
Most of the buildings were completely destroyed, over half the disciples were killed now, and the rest was struggling to live, some were just still alive barely, although most of their body was already crushed by the debris of the buildings.
Others were able to escape or were strong enough that even piles of building debris were not much against them, but they were beginning to be pressured by the resurging miasma mold aberrations, which emerged out of the swamp left by Benladann's attack once more.
Even more, they began to spread miasma around the corpses and made them into aberrations as well, quickly beginning to flood the entire place once more.
The two beasts that were protecting them were left weakened and half-fried alive, nobody could had expected that such an attack would fall so fast after that first one that left so much damage already.
Drake's amazing invention was more than he could had ever asked for! He had been working on this for so long and seeing Fuyu slowly evolve and grow bigger and bigger… he felt like his efforts were finally paying off!
Challenges? Who need them?
Thrilling battles? Who cares about that?
The only thing Drake wanted is victory so he could go back to live in peace with his family, although he also planned to one day find Greenwood and beat the shit out of him, he planned to do so after having accumulated even more power.
As always, the best ways to win were the ones where the least effort was put, and where the cheesiest ways could be used! This wasn't a game after all, he didn't felt bad by "cheating" his way through, as long as he could win, that's all he cared for.
And this was just but the second attack, but it already left the entire enemy in shambles, and the strongest foes were also left incredibly weakened… Black was left speechless, although he still had some plans, he feared that he might be stomped again by another massive attack.
Somehow, and against his own pride, he hoped that the Vampires could accomplish something…
Austr looked into the foe in front of him, a barrier was protecting it, and his devastating magic was not even budging the barrier…
