Chapter 1156 (1/2)

After Lightning crossed the encaher and paused in ie asked while raising her head

Lightning did not answer but turned around and peered down at Taquila The visibility of this impenetrable blackness was less than 200 meters, and it was a rather hopeless atteic Slayer under this condition

But that did not ic Slayer could see her

Her back was currently facing the ic Slayer would instantly spot her when he stared up

Nevertheless, he did not come after her

He knew he could not catch up

So, he decided to let her go

In a way, she won!

Lightning took a deep breath, outstretched her right hand with her finger tips still treer

That was the gesture Roland had taught her — a gesture of victory!

Then she whipped around, headed to the First Arlance, and told Sylvie everything she had seen

”A neatly-cut cylinder made of God's Stones of Retaliation? Noted,” Sylvie said as she wrote down the approximate size of the pillars and then handed the sheet of paper to Agatha, who quickly figured out the exact location and shape based on the size of the God's Stones The data was soon transht be errors in this calculation, at least they had soh estimate of the location of the pillars and called the Artillery Battalion

ACannons at the encahts erupted from the muzzle and flitted across the sky like fireflies and pierced the darkness

As uely visible So co echo of the explosions rent the air and awoke the Fertile Plains froie mumbled as she stared at the artillery encaainst the ith her hands clenching into fists

Now, there was only one more obstacle to overcome

Ursrook hovered in the air and watched mounds of earth rise and fall with an air of detachs had invented so far One projectile could kill a dozen junior de them The iron shards ejected by those projectiles could penetrate armor and sink into flesh even from dozens of meters away

Even for him, he was not completely sure whether he would survive a direct blow

In the report submitted to the Sky Lord, he called this weapon ”fiery rain”

Apart fros had also invented individual weapons such as ”fire bolt” and ”fire fork” Apparently, the evolution of the huely relied on fire The lord believed this was a kind of upgrade, but he was ress as a coincidence Witches obviously possessed ular witch, whose ability was fire control, had finally awakened after several hundred years and helped the human population to master this natural eles developed in a direction he did not wish to see, it did nothe could do about it He could create boulders out of God's Stones to block the fiery rain Ursrook noticed that God's Stones seemed to be impervious to the impact of explosions When these projectiles brushed past the stone pillars, they bounced off, without leaving the slightest trace on the pillars

The real danger lay in the fiery rain that penetrated the pillars and reached the symbiotic demons inside Their impenetrable armor appeared to be impotent under the attack of the fiery rain and was instantly cracked and collapsed in one blow

Ironically, the king seereat faith in those pillars that could not feel pain and believed that it was the h their kind had obtained so far froacy shards” The stone pillars not only provided far ic options The king believed that 100 such pillars would be sufficient to annhilate the entire human race

Therefore, 100 pillars was exactly what the lord had given him

Nonetheless, over the past half a year, not only did he fail to exterrip on Taquila seemed to have loosened as well Less than 40 of the pillars were now left at Ursrook's disposal

If the Sky Lord had not so blindly trusted the king, Ursrook would not have found hi dilemma

If those stone pillars were destroyed halfway, he would have nothing but junior deht the enemy

That would be almost like suicide Even the stone pillars would break upon the tremendous force of the fiery rain, let alone those unarmored junior demons

However, Ursrook did not care
