284 A Trace Of Hope Part One (1/2)
Grandpa Mu's face fell. He knew now that there was no stopping Mei. Because of this incident, her emotions were controlling her. Even though he knew it would not work Grandpa Mu still yelled out: ”Just listen to me and leave! You can't handle...”
Before Grandpa Mu could even finish his words he watched as Mei waved her hand and in the air a massive multi layer magic circle formed covering the entire area. He suddenly had a cold chill run down his spine as he quickly retreated. He knew right now, friend or foe, whoever got caught up in this attack would not come out unscathed. What he could not understand was why this attack was so powerful? Why was Mei's power shooting through the roof?
GD, Jay, Lina, and the other person from the machine race eyes all opened wide at the sight before them. ”Shit what the hell is this little girl!?” Jay Shouted. He gritted his teeth and aimed his gun at Mei, taking fire. This was followed up by Lina and the rest as well. Even GD changed his focus to Mei.
Mei only snorted and waved her hand creating a shield in front of her. The rays of light that were shot from GD and the rest's guns were blocked easily by her. GD and his team all looked at Mei in disbelief. But the words Mei spoke next caused them all to feel as if death had his scythe at their throats.
”You will now taste what it feels like to die in the same fashion as my son!”
With no hesitation, Mei lowered her hand causing a beam of light to instantly hit the ground causing the earth under their feet to shake violently and turned from green to red magma. Everything within a fifty kilometer radius was engulfed in this light. Even Grandpa Mu braced himself as the light fell down on top of him. But he was amazed to see that instead of hurting him the light was healing his wounds. He stared at Mei disbelief because everywhere around him was being destroyed. ”Magic that can destroy and heal at the same time...”
This magic was different from her armageddon that would just destroy all. This magic took into account those she deemed as friendlies and protected and healed them at the same time. Mei had not lost her sanity. She was perfectly clear who was a friend and who was a foe. She would not harm the innocent just to take revenge on those who killed Nomi. Plus, Grandpa Mu was her family, she would never hurt him. She also made sure the lone cultivator old man was safe as well. It was just the landscape and the people from the Machine Empire that were suffering.
Jay was struggling as he formed a shield up around him trying to block the attack from hitting him. But it seemed futile since his shield was already cracking. ”GD, I don't think I can make it back! Take Lina and 56 and get out of here!”
”He's dead! He saw me struggling and tossed me his shield to protect me. His whole body melted right away!” Lina said with tears in her eyes. ”Wait where is Jay!?
”He won't be making it back. We have to leave and leave now.” GD was very reluctant but he had no choice, Lina was the daughter of their chief. He promised he would keep her safe at all costs.
Lina looked at GD who seemed to be struggling and then out of the corner of her eyes she saw Jay looking over at them with the normal goofy smile he always had on. He waved at her as his shield failed and he was engulfed by the light. ”Noo! Jay! Damnit! I will kill that bitch! When I get back, I will bring an army here and raze the fucking place to the ground!”
Tears streamed down Lina's face as GD pushed her through a time and space transportation device. GD quickly followed after her. When they came out on the other side they were on a platform in the middle of an industrial city. Both Lina and GD fell to the ground. Both their faces were filled with sorrow.
