139 Chapter 139
--------------------------
At this time, the army of the Istarin kingdom stopped marching without any orders. Everyone stared at the scene in astonishment and in a deep state of shock. Whatever they were seeing today will go down the history for hundreds of ages. The soldiers will never forget this scene in their whole lives.
Even before the giant water dragon could collide against the sea of crimson flames, the intense temperature of the flame already had started evaporating the water dragon. King Lewis misunderstood one part and that was, it was not just any sea of flame, it was a meteoric crimson flame that was going to hit them.
As Aditya kept on descending, his falling speed had reached [1500+] Right now his speed was so fast that even if he wanted to, he cannot stop at this point. Not only that with each passing second his falling speed only increased.
Boooom!!!!!!!
The water dragon finally collided with the sea of crimson flames. Just when the soldiers were about to celebrate, their faces turned pale as despair took over their eyes seeing the water dragon turning into white smoke right before their eyes. Before they could compare the whole situation, white clouds of smoke covered the entire area making it impossible for them to see anything.
"Sir Lewis, please do something." King Ethan once had heard that a similar kind of attack had killed 5,000 soldiers of Duke Ryan. The very same duke that betrayed Aditya and had decided to take shelter with the Zulux Dynasty.
King Lewis gritted his teeth as he looked at the huge orb which was over 2000 meters rapidly coming at them. If this attack hits their army, then their whole army will be wiped out.
"It looks like I have no choice but to use that artifact." Just when the Aditya was only 500 meters away, King Lewis activated a 5-star artifact.
Watson, Julia, Alicia, Amber, Tyler, Henry, Nathan, Scott, Josh, Eleanor, Leo, and all other soldiers saw a faint golden color transparent glass-like barrier forming over the army of million. The golden glass-like transparent barrier took the shape of a dome and covered the whole army of one million and two hundred thousand.
Meanwhile, Aditya's falling speed was about to reach [2000+]. Falling from the sky at such frightening speed while using crimson flames and crimson lightning with a 3-star golden spear, Aditya realized that even he wouldn't be able to escape the explosion that will be caused by the attack.
Right now Aditya's speed had reached a point where it was close to breaking the sound barrier.
bang!!!!!!
The Meteoric Crimson Sea of flame hit the golden dome-like barrier. The barrier of the 5-star artifact could not even hold the attack even for a millisecond before the whole barrier collapsed as the 5-star star-shaped artifact itself broke down. When King Lewis saw the golden dome, the 5-star artifact the most powerful artifact in his possession failing to defend him his heart stopped beating.
Boooooooooooooooooooooooom!
A thunderous, earthshaking, continent-destroying explosion shook every corner of the eastern region. All the 2nd-order higher-order beings who lived in the Eastern region of the continent felt this explosion.
Far away, Watson, Julia, Alicia, Amber, Tyler, Henry, Nathan, Scott, Josh, Eleanor, Zachery, Leo, and two hundred fifty thousand soldiers all witnessed what chaos truly looked like. Right before their eyes, the whole eastern region of the continent was lit in crimson flames. From every corner of the eastern region, everyone was able to see the crimson flames that hovered in the sky painting the blue sky with the color of blood.
The destruction was something that no one had expected to see even in their wildest dreams. It was utter chaos. Crimson flames spread everywhere. Watson was sure that after today, that part of the Eastcliff region won't be useable again.
With the continent shaking explosion, it releases a powerful shockwave. The shockwave of crimson flames spread in every single direction. The shockwave was so strong that any soldier regardless of what cultivation or what artifact they had were immediately killed and burned to death.
The terrifying temperature of the flames had turned the ground black as if the soil had been turned into volcanic ash. Every blade of grass, every leaf on a tree, every insect regardless of their type, even the earthworms that hide under the ground had completely been turned to ashes.
That day the sky did not stop rumbling. The smell of blood and ashes spread in every single corner of the Nepoca Kingdom. The damage that was done to this land will never be forgotten even if thousand ten thousand years pass. This land will become the place from where the nickname Graveyard of Empires has given the Istarin Kingdom....no the Istarin Empire.
About 10 minutes later, the chaos finally showed signs of slowing down. Watson, Julia, Alicia, Amber, Tyler, Henry, Nathan, Scott, Josh, Eleanor, Leo, and two hundred fifty thousand soldiers blankly stared at the miserable fate of the 1 million 230 thousand soldiers in silence. No words were needed. Actions spoke louder than words.
Whether it was the Goddess of alchemy or the goddess of wealth, no one was able to keep themselves calm. Aditya was only a beginner 3rd-order for god fucking sake yet he did something that even a 5th-order might never be able to do.
After more than 15 minutes passed since the continent-shaking explosion took place, an explosion that will be remembered forever by the people, Julia snapped out of the shocked state. She suddenly realized something. Her eyes desperately looked here and there, searching for the image of the figure who had done all this. But no matter which direction, which angle she looked into, she could not find the man who had also stolen her heart.
The goddess also known as the princess of the Onard family could not find her man. She began to get anxious. Her throat got dry just thinking about anything bad happening to her man who was the Dragon Monarch. "Whe....Where is Aditya?" Julia's shaky words were heard by everyone.
Watson, Alicia, and Amber were the first three persons to snap out of their shocked state and realize that they could not find Aditya no matter which direction they looked. Everyone realized that their King and protector was nowhere to be seen even though he has done such frightening damage to the enemy.
"Grandpa, did something happen to Aditya?" Like a little girl who has lost her parents, the Goddess of alchemy looked at Watson with tears in the corner of her eyes. It seems Watson's reply will determine whether Julia will cry or not.
"My lady, I can assure you that his Majesty is still alive. If he was dead then we dragonians could have felt it." All the dragonians were connected to Dragon Monarch through a link. If one of the dragonians died, Aditya would know about it. The same could be said if something happens to their Dragon Monarch.
Watson's words calmed the heart of the maiden in love. She nodded her head. "Let's go there and see what has happened to the army." Everyone agreed with Alicia's suggestion. Under Watson's command, the Istarin troops began moving forward.
Meanwhile, lying deep in a crater that was more than 20 km wide, Aditya also known as the Dragon Monarch was seen lying on the ground. Blood was oozing out of his arms, shoulders, legs, and thighs. His skin was covered in mud and dust. Around him, small pieces of his armor and his dragon scales were lying on the ground.
The crate that Aditya had created with such a frightening attack was more than 13 km meters deep. The whole crater was black as if the crater was made in an area with volcanic ash. But the truth was that the ground simply has been burned black from Aditya's attack.
Ahh!!!
Right now Aditya's whole body was in pain. Every fiber and every bone in his body was aching in pain. It's a big miracle that he still hasn't lost any parts of his body, even though the 4-star armor that he was wearing was completely destroyed in pieces. Aditya's left arm was broken in many places. His ribs had 9 fractures and many cracks. His shoulders were also cracked.
Even though he wasn't bleeding a lot, his body was in miserable condition. This was the first time that he was injured like this.
"It looks like I have miscalculated things. Instead of letting falling with the spear, I just should have thrown the spear. Even though doing that would have reduced the attacking power, at least I wouldn't have gotten injured like this." The Istarin King groaned feeling the pain in his body. He did not feel like moving at all.
