Chapter 1113 - Descend of an Angel (2/2)
“W-What exactly is… that…”
Gazing at the unscathed young lady who turned around curiously to look at her drifting and flowy long hair and dress, the crowd in the control room almost went crazy. They felt unprecedented fears that was worse than when they saw the enormous dragon. After all, the dragon was a monster so it wasn’t surprising that humans couldn’t explain the situation using common sense. As for the case with this young lady, she seemed no different from humans!
Perhaps this was why humans were able to interact with animals, but feared people around them with extraordinary abilities. If one wasn’t a human, it would be acceptable for one to display abilities beyond human reach. On the contrary, this young lady seemed just like a human, and yet she possessed abilities that humans didn’t have. She was a true… monster.
Shortly after, terrified screams broke the dead silence in the control room.
“S-Supervisor… our external communication system has failed. We can’t request reinforcements!”
“Send out fighter aircrafts! Fighter aircrafts!”
The supervisor had gone crazy. Instead of being ashamed into anger, he was on the verge of giving up all hope. As the saying ‘those whom God wishes to destroy, he first makes mad’ went, this perhaps was the part of that madness. Upon hearing the hysterical command from the supervisor, no one dared to dissuade him. In fact, the soldiers were in a similar mood. They shouldn’t have made the wrong decision from the start. But at this point in time, there was no turning back.
“———!”
The gates opened with fighter aircrafts taking off into formation and flickering in metallic brilliance, flying straight at the young lady in the distance. Shortly after, they locked onto their target and blasted several guided missiles at her.
Even though the missiles came in strong, Lydia disregarded them entirely. It could also be said that she wasn’t mindful of the ‘cylindrical, metallic object flying in the air’ as she curiously twirled her hair and looked at them drifting slowly like in water, which amused her. After all, such an environment didn’t exist in the Dragon Soul Continent.
How interesting. If a banquet were being held here, it would surely be fun.
Boom!
While Lydia had an irrelevant thought in this situation, a fast-moving missile arrived before her and exploded.
The powerful shock waves erupted in flashes, causing the surveillance screen to lose its image due to the massive disruption.
“…”
The screen flickered in black and white. The crowd in the control room held their breath and stared at it. Even though the young lady didn’t react to the missiles and was struck by them defenselessly, they couldn’t let their guard down after witnessing her powerful strength earlier.
“————!”
The disruption lasted for only a few moments. Shortly after, the image appeared on the screen again. Looking at this scene, everyone took in a breath of cold air.
Lydia continued to hover in midair without any change to her expression. The fragments of the missiles were quickly breaking down around her, turning into light dust that vanished into the air. At the same time, Lydia seemed to have realized something. She raised and swung her right hand.
A golden blade ray flashed and faded away quickly. Almost simultaneously, she heard a voice filled with despair.
“Our fighter aircrafts were completely destroyed!”
“…”
The control room was in a dead silence. No one knew what they should do. They froze to the spot, gazing blankly at the holy, beautiful, and incomparably powerful young lady. But at this moment, as though a declaration, a loud explosion boomed. Shortly after, the siren let out ear-piercing blares. Everyone turned around instinctively, only to witness a scene of criss-crossed blazing flames and holy beams on the other screen. At the same time, they heard a frantic voice.
“We’ve been ambushed!”
