Chapter 417: Survival
It was clear that the enemies knew that he could do that. That shouldn’t be possible... Those who saw him in the previous battle either died or shouldn’t have been able to send a message this far. Unless...
"Those five guys passed the message on how I killed them before they died..." Rain thought. "That must be why... every time I fight them, they learn more about me no matter where I am."
That was a bit annoying, but information was the bread and butter of war... Rain had been looking for a way to communicate with his friends over long distances, so perhaps he will learn that now.
Before he had the chance to do that, though, Rain learned something else. He had planned to train a bit before with the martial artists and the mercury warriors, but he didn’t have the chance to do so. Still, they began to show their best techniques now to wipe out the human army... the martial artists showed an weird almost suicidal technique.
When they charged to attack, sometimes they would ignore their defense in order to take down the enemies as fast as possible, as such, they ended up with spears on their stomachs.
Still, after pulling those out, Rain would see their backs glowing a bit as if they were emitting some mana from there, and then their wounds would heal in no time.
"I guess their fast healing has some tricks too... that makes sense, otherwise, their skill level would be way too above the other tribes," Rain thought.
While using his magic eyes, Rain found several invisible spheres of mana on their back... Rain couldn’t help but assume that those were large concentrations of mana that they stored overtime to use almost instantaneous healing.
In the next instant, the earth mage created an earth spear that has pierced the hearts of all the special soldiers...
On the ground, Terra jumped away from the area and ordered the magic people to do the same since she knew about the anti-magic bombs... still, while the enemies threw those in her direction, they didn’t launch it that far... it didn’t take long for Terra to connect the dots... the enemies were targeting Rain again.
Unfortunately, before she could alert Rain, she saw him jumping to the sky while the special soldiers were hugging him... when they disappeared in the sky, it eventually happened.
In the sky above, a chain reaction of explosions ignited, giving birth to vivid purple energy spheres. These spheres rapidly swelled in size, their spherical shapes seemingly unable to contain the surging energy within.
All around, the battlefield fell into an eerie pause as soldiers from both sides turned their attention upward. The expanding energy spheres commanded a moment of silence, their pulsating brilliance holding everyone’s gaze.
Then, a thunderous release of energy erupted. Each sphere unleashed a powerful shockwave accompanied by deafening blasts of wind. The battlefield became a maelstrom of chaos as dust and debris swirled through the turbulent gusts, obscuring vision and sending troops sprawling.
The explosions’ impact resonated widely, shaking the very ground beneath the combatants. It was a breathtaking and frightening display of might that momentarily forced both sides to halt their furious battle, their attention drawn to the unexpected turmoil unfolding in the sky above.
As the explosions took place, Terra watched all of it with expectancy in her eyes... in the end, she saw Rain falling from that massive cloud of smoke, and after several seconds, he landed on his feet. Terra knew that he would survive that... he wasn’t the type to fall for the same trick twice.
Although Terra was still expecting to find Rain in a bloody mess, his body was mostly fine, he was emitting a lot of steam, and he had some burn wounds here and there, but aside from that, he was fine.
