“Cough! Cough… Cough…”
It took Nassaupelle quite a while to get up from the rubble. If he had not prepared a fortified body, he would probably have died from the tremor.
Darn it—what were those lowlifes doing!?
Although a life was worth nothing to him, he did not wish to be discovered that he was capable of transplanting his soul under the watchful eyes of the King. Until he fully obtained control over the core, he had to try his best to maintain his current image. Only then would he be able to reduce the wariness others had of him.
“Your Majesty, are you alright…”
“The dome to King’s City is damaged. The magic barrier has been shattered. The time to restore it to normal is expected to taken an hour.” The King rigidly instructed, “We have to immediately take countermeasures!”
“What was the bright light and boom from just now?” Blood Conqueror’s voice interjected. “Why was I able to see the turmoil even from Arrieta?”
“Where are the Eye Demon guards? I can’t contact any of them!” Undeserved felt somewhat flustered. “Mask, what did you do!?”
What did he do? A raging fire suddenly surged up in Nassaupelle’s heart. Had these idiots who were all brawn no brains not figured it out yet? The humans had launched an unprecedented attack on the demon race!
The white light’s brightness had reached an unbelievable state. Just the visual blast was enough to cause damage. Now, more than ten of his brains were blind. Even the sun couldn’t do the same.
As for the outcome of the Eye Demon guards, it was obvious.
For the first time, Mask did not hide his emotions.
“The Eye Demon guards are dead. Use your own eyes to see.”
After he said those words coldly, he went up to the nearest floating platform. On the way, rubble kept falling from the dome, crashing into the wide Red Mist Lake. Regardless of this damage, it did not threaten the Birth Tower. But ever since the establishment of King’s City, this place had never been defiled by the enemy. This no doubt was a setback to the race’s psychology.
After climbing to the highest point of King’s City, a sizzling hot wave inundated him. There was a smell of burning mixed in the air as though a fire had once ravaged the area.
He clearly remembered that the white light first appeared close to the top of the dome, a few hundred meters in the sky from where he was. Despite such a distance, the heat still remained and this far exceeded his level of comprehension.
After surveying the area, Nassaupelle had a basic understanding of the entire situation.
Without a doubt, the black metallic object was the culprit of all of this.
Not only did it cause a huge hole in the dome, but it also destroyed many Symbiotic Demon defensive installations. From the periphery of the cracks that cratered in, the outer region of the city had been crushed by a particular force. Although the crystals that made up the upper shell was not as resilient as the Birth Tower, they had been under the protection of the magic barrier. Yet, just one attack had blasted open a hole. This served to prove that the destructive force of the object was astounding.
It was absolutely impossible for snow powder to have such effects, even if the quantity was raised by ten times. The weapon the humans had used was clearly new legacy, but the demon race knew nothing about it!
What warped Mask’s expression even more was that the iron birds did not swoop down while taking advantage of the situation. They did not launch an attack on the ground forces which were in chaos. Instead, they turned around and had no intention of coming close!
This thing… Could it be that there might be more than one?
