Chapter 357 Operation Synchro IV (Position C’s Side)
"Good.
Now then, Major. I\'d like to begin attacking in earnest."
Right after Evan spoke, he snapped his fingers and activated the Elemental Weapon Projection skill, generating hundreds of elemental weapons in the air.
At first, no one noticed his actions in the heat of the battle, however, when he began adding various weapons of various elements, more and more people and undead began to notice his actions.
They looked up to see Evan standing on a void step with his index and middle fingers raised to the sky, surrounded by more than a thousand weapons of varying types and elements.
\'Unlimited Bl-!\'
[The goddess \'Artemisia\' requests you \'Shut the fuck up\'.]
"Pfft."
While holding back his laughter, the boy swung his hand down, giving the command for the thousands of weapons to be launched towards the undead monsters on the ground.
**BOOM! BOOOM!! BOOOOOMM!!!
Multiple explosions rang out as each of the elemental weapons exploded upon contact, with the explosion of some weapons being amplified by previous nearby explosions of synergising elements.
One particularly powerful B ranker even used a skill that created a large translucent wall of light that had the effect of amplifying the elemental damage of any projectiles that passed through it, causing Evan\'s attack to deal twice as much damage than he had planned.
The boy turned towards the adventurer in question and gave them a thumbs up before placing a hand into his inventory and pulling out one of his magic potion juice packs.
\'Thank goodness I restocked for this battle.\'
While thinking that, Evan\'s ears caught the sound of the chants that the soldiers and adventurers were shouting to themselves as they used their energy-filled weapons to put down the undead once and for all.
The military commanders took advantage of the undead\'s disorderliness to give tactical orders that enabled the soldiers to deal with the undead efficiently despite the difference in numbers, and those who initially suffered at the hands of the lich\'s sound magic attack were slowly getting back to their feet to join the fray.
Since the grandmaster level undead who were the supreme commanders were all occupied, they didn\'t have the leeway to give proper orders to the lower level undead, and the superior master level undead Dullahans, weren\'t exactly free to do so either, as Evan\'s earlier attack had scattered the huge gatherings of undead led by said Dullahans.
Magic and auras were flying around, with Evan spotting one of the paladins who came with Amelie swinging a divinity-infused whip at a group of undead and turning them all into ashes before moving on to the next set while momentarily glancing in Evan\'s direction after sensing the boy\'s gaze.
"Hmmm…everyone is on fleek today.
Guess I should join the fun, I did want to vent my stress after all."

While Evan was beginning to go wild at Position A, another one of his companions was going wild in her own way at Position C.
Multiple Dullahans learned what true fear was when they saw more than a dozen large horizontal tornadoes of black wind and flames, carve up the ground while rapidly spiralling towards them.
The monsters had all been temporarily rendered unable to move and had no choice but to let the huge tornadoes slam into their bodies before sucking them up into the vortex of flames and wind.
"Explode."
The voice of the high demon of pride rang out as the demonic energy in the dozen tornadoes of black wind and flames detonated, causing all the tornadoes to simultaneously explode.
"Flames of Hubris."
She coated her arm in demonic energy and swing it to the side, delivering a long black flaming slash that set the droves of undead charging towards her from the right on fire.
As the ghouls and Draugrs screamed their death throes, the black-haired woman heaved a sigh of light exhaustion before glancing at the open space around her.
Every single undead creature within a 200-metre radius from the point she was standing had either been turned to ashes, or was in the process of becoming ashes.
The senior mages and some A-rank adventurers who noticed this couldn\'t help but question the identity of this woman, with their answer coming from one of the adventurers who had chanced upon the high demon in the guild building before.
"Her name\'s Pride, she\'s a B ranker from this party called the \'Anomalies\'.
Rumour has it that she only just registered to be an adventurer less than six months ago."
"Pride? Like the emotion?"
"Yep."
"Strange name."
"Is her name the issue? Just look at how those Dullahans are steering clear of her.
I don\'t know about the rest of her party members, but she sure as hell is an anomaly to me."
Right after the mage spoke, the high demon summoned a gigantic arm-shaped energy construct and used it to sweep a few hundred undead monsters ranging from regular moving skeletons to wraiths, zombies and even Dullahans, towards herself.
It was as if she was saying \'Since you don\'t want to come to me, I\'d bring you to me by force\' to the undead as the mage even spotted a few undead leopard-type monsters trying to jump over the energy-constructed arm.
However, the high demon just held up her palm, generating a two-ringed red magic circle that launched five thin laser-like beams of red light towards the creature\'s body, boring five very large holes in the undead monster with it dropping to the ground in the next moment.
Seeing this, the group of adventurers and mages who were watching all echoed the same set of words.
"Definitely an anomaly."
Nevertheless, they didn\'t have time to watch Pride anymore as they had to return to focusing on their own undead opponents, however, they weren\'t the only ones who stopped to notice the feats of the high demon who was only just killing undead in large quantities so she could absorb enough energy to become a superior stage master level existence.
The group of undead she had gathered were all measly level 100s which she could effortlessly dispose of with just a few tier 2 flame spells topped off with a couple of aura slashes.
"Hmm…let\'s try a watered-down version of \'that\' spell.
I don\'t think I\'ve used it since I returned from that world with the celestial race."
Pride turned as she spoke, before kicking off the ground and dashing forward, slashing at any undead in her path without care for whether she ended their lives or not.
As a peak intermediate stage master level existence who could hold her own against superior stages, Pride was capable of moving at subsonic speeds far faster than the eye could see.
Within a little over a minute, she had traversed a distance of five kilometres; meaning she was moving at a speed almost as fast as the F1 race car record while swinging her sword at the undead monsters in her movement path.
She didn\'t stop until she had cut deep into the forest filled with the forces of the undead monsters and there weren\'t any living beings within a ten-kilometre radius of her.
