Chapter 1373 - Chaos Core (2/2)
Seconds later, in an ear-deafening snarl, the part of the Chaos Core’s body that was shone by the light emitted white smoke as if it were scorched. Although it was just a small part of its enormous body, it was apparent that one would still feel pain if one stepped on the fire barefoot.
The Chaos Core shuddered violently after being ambushed by the holy light. Soon after, a huge and dense, pitch-black fog sprayed out from one of the openings on its massive body of flesh, wrapping itself entirely and turning it into a strong shield to block Mini Bubble Gum’s further assault.
However, at that moment, Canary also made her move.
Along with a crisp and lively chant, the young lady waved her hands around as if she were dancing lithely. Air swirled around her fingertips, while flames coalesced in her chant, rushing straight ahead like a drill and striking the surface of the fog barrier mercilessly like a blazing tornado.
Along with sparks splashing everywhere, the pitch-black fog that encased the Chaos Core gradually thinned. But even so, the fog didn’t seem to be fading away entirely. On the contrary, after it was swept away by the fiery tornado, it started all over again. However, that momentary opening was more than enough for the attackers to take advantage of.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The moment the fog scattered, ten streams of light as bright as meteors streaked across the air. In a series of violent explosions, the fog that was merging dispersed once again. And it was at that moment when Icy Snow lowered the longbow in her hand. Her eyes that could see through time and space reflected only images of darkness and Chaos.
Following closely behind, the magical warships and deity wardens also began their assault. Cassidy swung her sword, slashing a dazzling blade ray that sliced through the exterior of the Chaos Core from top to bottom. With this flickering blade ray, the pitch-black fog that was cut through changed color instantly. However, that was only for a moment.
Even though the deity wardens had powers that allowed them to dominate the world of Order, they didn’t have much power to speak of in this lair of Chaos. The pitch-black fog that was altered in form by Cassidy existed for less than a minute before it was completely crushed in the ensuing stream of Chaos.
Marybelle also waved her wand uncharacteristically-fast, tapping it around in midair. Along with her action, huge patches of pitch-black fog that surrounded the Chaos Core collapsed one after another. The roaring bursts of magical beams released from the top of the battleships penetrated the boundary of darkness and Chaos, striking the huge body of the Chaos Core ruthlessly.
To the Chaos Core, the attacks from Rhode and the others were like a mouse scaring an elephant, but it wasn’t entirely ineffective. Because if a mouse were to keep nibbling on the foot of the largest elephant non-stop, the elephant would eventually fly into a rage. And as expected, after being attacked constantly by Rhode and the others, the Chaos Core trembled greatly.
The surrounding Chaos creatures that fused together separated themselves and scattered. Soon after, countless, overwhelming Chaos creatures darted out of the opening of the Chaos Core’s body, rushing toward the brazen enemies like a swarm of bees.
“It has begun. Hang on!”
Upon witnessing the innumerable Chaos creatures ahead, Rhode yelled out again. He finally set his heart at ease because this scene was panning out the way he had planned. The Chaos Core changed its direction of attack to ensure its safety. At the same time, the Chaos creatures that realized that the Chaos Core was under attack also assaulted Rhode’s group. Rhode sensed that along with the increase in Chaos creatures on his side, the number of Chaos creatures on the periphery decreased rapidly.
The next thing they had to do was to resist Chaos’s attack until the plane channel was completely open!
“Big Brother…”
And at that moment, the young lady in Grandia raised her head and looked toward the distant sky with a worried expression. Like Rhode, the younger sister also sensed that the Chaos creatures that were choking the plane channel were leaving speedily. And along with the departure of the Chaos creatures, the plane channel once again restored its usual speed and got back on track.
“I hope all of you will be safe.”
The young lady prayed softly. She opened her eyes and looked at the Door of Akasha before her.
“This time, we’ll definitely succeed.”
