150 The First Expedition Part 3 (2/2)

Thumb … thumb … thumb

The sound of drums was follow by the floor shaking of an stampede and the last thing anybody standing in their path saw was two people surrounded by blue fire running towards them at full speed with extraordinary momentum.

IMMOLATION

One of the go to spells of Rahz and now it could be expanded to a distance of 15 feet around him and added Ridd.i.c.k's area of effect, the fire spread to about 25 ft horizontally. People were first hit flying while the chaos fire burned them in the air and if for some reason they managed to survive the impact of the front line, Liz was ready to skewer them with Ice Lances.

News of the team was spreading extremely fast among the Devas, they were a hurricane that was being track in real time by scouts all over the area.

”The stampede is moving towards the neutral zone”

”Stampede is moving south…. Now is moving west”

Many people on mounts were also following from a distance in order to relate the news to their faction but they were extremely afraid of getting snipe by a powerful spell. It was extremely easy for Xiao Bai to kill them but that still would take a little time and the situation was getting hairy by the minute.

Thanks to Spirit of the Wolf and Accelerando they were able to travel through the zones but more and more people were coming from the towns belonging to the opposition that made them take turns that they were not antic.i.p.ating.

The worst part was, when they changed from the forest area into an arid zone that provided them no cover and many of the mages and rangers flying on mounts were able to shoot to kill without the interference of trees.

Elunes mana capabilities were being tested during the expedition but making it to the neutral zone was a hopeless endeavor since the terrain belonging to the devas was extremely big and since they didn't bring their flying mounts it was impossible for them to run all the way back.

100 people became 1000 and then they became 10000, it was starting to get out of hand and even though they were able to kill anything that stop on their path at the beginning soon they were forced to just avoid the huge crowds coming their way..

”Liz we need a portal, is our only way” said Rahz while frowning

Liz nodded and said, ”I need at least 15 sec to cast it, so we need to look for a cave or something that can give us some cover”

”There is really no way to lose them in this area, anybody have any ideas?”

”I … I think ...I can give us the window of time, we need to cast the portal spell brother but we need to stop right next to a mountain”

The team looked towards Ridd.i.c.k a little confused but the smile of confidence in his face was very rea.s.suring. The area did not have any cover from the people flying above but the zone did have huge rocks that met Ridd.i.c.ks requirements.

Over there! Yelled Ridd.i.c.k calling the attention of the team.

It was a huge Rock almost 50 Ft tall and it had a pretty wide base that made it pretty stable. The team arrived underneath and Liz started casting the portal spell while every one got ready to defend her so that she would not get interrupted by the people flying above them.

The group actions didn't go unnoticed by their pursuers that started launching their most powerful spells in order to force Liz to start over but everything they did was futile as the moment Liz started casting, Ridd.i.c.k move away from the group and remove his father relic from his wrist.

RAWR!

10 feet ...20 feet ...30 feet.. Ridd.i.c.k grew rapidly and his reptilian skin shone in the sun while two huge bat like wings sprung out of his back. Rahz was amazed by the new look of his brother, the wings were definitely part of Ridd.i.c.ks third evolution and it was the first time he was seeing them.

The people in the sky were extremely scared and flew even higher while their previous attacks smashed on the wings and barely did any damage.

It was a very well thought out plan, thanks to Ridd.i.c.ks ma.s.sive wings that were design for defense instead of flying, he was able to protect their backs while the rock that was initially there protect their backs.

The people following them by land arrived at the scene but they couldn't get close thanks to Ridd.i.c.k's Tail which he swung around with force, deterring anybody that wanted to get close to attack, all they could do was try and inflict some damage to the tail but it was minimal.

Ridd.i.c.k and Liz were the last members to cross through the portal and they did it without much difficulty, the first expedition had been successful.
