Chapter 77: Laws!
It was utter terror for them! A terror worse than death!
they knew they were going to die, they knew they were nothing but cannon fodder, slightly stronger cannon fodder but still useless in the grand scheme of things.
If they knew this was how they were going to die, they would have never agreed to come.
Unfortunately, they had nowhere to cry.
And that was how the SSS-Ranks of the forces other than those of the humans met their ends.
The Vampires were enraged, the Witches watched coldly, and the Demons continued their act uncaringly.
Similar to the SSS-Ranks, the EX-Ranks also couldn't see, aside from the humans of course since Commander David had enough control to choose who could see and who didn't.
But, this changed nothing, if they couldn't see they had a thousand more ways to substitute sight.
A few seconds passed after Commander David raised his spear and only a small percent of the low-ranks were still alive, and before he retracted his spear, he had to finish the job.
"[Mighty Spear Execution]!"
*Rumble* *Rumble* *Rumble* *Swishhh* *TShkk* *Tshkk*
The ground trembled, light concentrated and Spear emerged from the ground, piercing every single being behind the non-humans not leaving a single one alive.
Not even the EX-Ranks were spared from the skill, But, they weren't like those weaklings, they could see, they could evade, they could defend.
One thing they could not do was to protect the soldiers. Not like they cared enough to do so anyway.
"[Blood Guard]!" "[Inpenetrable Blood Barrier]!" "[Ice Fortress]!" "[Mana Protection]!" "[Smoooooshmhm]!" "[You're Mine Now]! Kuhahahahaha!"
The Vampires used Blood to protect themselves.
One summoned a humanoid Guard made out of blood who took the attack head-on and exploded, however, the attack didn't dissipate, Fortunately, he had enough time to evade it.
The other summoned a globe of Blood that surrounded him parrying the spears of light with it.
The Witches used mana and their elements.
One summoned a small Fortress of ice that did a good job at protecting her, and the latter used something… That made Draco want to go and strangle her to death, Mana! this meant she had an EX-Rank Mana affinity! this was a very rare element, but he wanted it for its boosts and its effects on him as a Mana Kythnos.
Out of the many beings he killed, none of them had Mana as an Affinity, and now he directly had an EX-Rank Affinity in front of him.
While the others defended themselves with normal skills and Authorities with higher effectiveness, the Demon, however… Used some questionable skills.
One gave the attack a long kiss sending a Heart flying at him perfectly parrying it.
The other? He Tamed it… Snatching it for himself and making it rotate obediently around him like a good dog.
"Good! Now send that on them, you fat fuck!" The Slut looked at her comrade and ordered him to send the attack back at its owner after seeing it rotate around him.
"No way in hell, I'm adding it to my collection, you can go attack them yourself, you Essence-Sucking Musquito Bitch."
"Tsk, Bastard!"
While the two demons argued with each other, The Vampires couldn't just stay seated after their subordinates were killed.
One of them raised his hand as bat wings appeared behind him.
his black aristocratic clothes make him look like a gentleman and his monocles staying in place glinted in red the same color as his eyes.
"[Blood Massacre]!"
"Protect the Soldiers!" an EX-Rank shouted, however, they had nothing they could do against an internal attack.
*Znnnnnnnnn* *Booom* *Pchaaakh*
The soldiers inflated like balloons and exploded like fireworks, not even having a chance to protect themselves.
They were already weakened by the Slut, and now, they suffered from another attack they couldn't defend against and… Perished.
Now, Only 13 Beings were still alive in the Heart Zone.
Everything that was about to happen from here on was going to be destructive, ridiculous, Mind-boggling, and… Back-stabbing.
Now that everything was out of the way, the EX-Ranks were ready to battle it out until only one team remained alive.
Nothing was going to interrupt them! those they had to kill were killed, those who could cause problems were killed, and those who were too useless were killed.
now, nothing external could threaten them, or could it?
For them now, that mattered not.
They knew who they had to kill, and what they had to do to kill them.
and in the end, Either the Vampires, the Witches, The Demons, The Empire, The Academy, or The Humans will claim the Heart.
That's what they knew, that's what they believed.
There was no one to ruin their plans.
Even if there was, they should have died by now.
As for the Forest's own Ex-Ranks, they had no interest in the Heart, this was a known fact by all.
So, who would die today was known.
The Elder of the Blaze Faction took a step forward, tapped his wand on the ground and it rippled like a wave.
"[Zero Gravity]." he calmly called, and everything changed.
Those standing floated, those dead rose, and those flying… continued watching.
The Humans and the Elder stood on the ground unfazed but the Demons, vampires, and Witches couldn't stand on the ground any longer and their wings or anything similar was useless.
The Slut who was already floating from the beginning didn't have much of a problem on the other hand.
One of the witches who had Ice Affinity looked at the Gravity and caught her hat while saying.
"Since you like Zeros so much then how about [Absolute Zero]!"
*Fshhhh*
In an instant, the Air froze and the corpses turned into blocks.
Draco looked at this and was shook for a moment, directly teleporting a distance away from the Skill Range.
He had Ice Immunity, yes! SSS-Rank even! but not enough to counter an EX-Rank's dishes.
Before the Humans could even protect themselves Commander David acted and unleashed his Opposing Skill.
"[Hell On Earth]!"
The Counter to Freezing Cold was Burning Temperature, Basic Math.
The Two Attacks met in the Middle, and then Commander David's superior 2.5% Law Understanding Rate won over the Witch's 2%.
Slowly but surely the Hellish temperature seeped into the Ice's Zone, While the Witch struggled to hold on the Vampires were cooking from behind the scenes.
Using the Frozen Blood and Blood steam sneakily they formed invisible attacks that they planned on using on the Humans.
Unfortunately for them, an EX-Rank with Sharp Danger Senses caught them in the act and warned the others.
"You vile things, don't you think I won't notice you! [Counter]!" The second the Vampires were ready to shoot their shot one of the Humans who was close to the EX-Rank who noticed the Vampires' scheme used one of his skills that came with his [Analysis Authority]!
By finding the weaknesses of his opponent or their skills he could counter them, totally nullifying them or in this case, winning control over them.
He raised his hand in front of him and closed his palms.
*Fwshhhh* *Tshkkkk*
The Frozen Shards and Burning Blood Swords and Spears which were in the control of the Vampires turned against them and attacked the Non-Humans.
The Vampires immediately defended themselves not suffering any attack, the Witch with mana did the same and even the Demons could defend themselves easily.
However, the Witch with Ice Affinity who had enough on her plate couldn't defend against the incoming attacks and suffered Twice!
Spears and Sword impaled her, her own Shards cut her all over, and finally, the Hellish Temperature attacked her and her entire team.
"Ugh!!" Blood seeped from her wounds all over.
Her heart was pierced, he abdomen, thighs, and even one of her arms was cut off, before she suffered from a wave of Burning Hot Fire that wouldn't have hurt her as much as it did if she wasn't injured.
"Kwaaaaaaagh!"
As the Serious witch screamed in pain while her whole body Burned, her whole team also suffered from Commander David's Fire.
The Vampires unleashed protection after protection in hope of holding on until the Skill was cancelled but the Blood they were so proud of couldn't protect them enough this time as it melted time and time again burning them in the process, and an EX-Ranks mana was nothing to scoff at especially someone with as many Affinities as Commander David.
The Witch with Mana however was holding on quite well, Her Mana was versatile and didn't really have a weakness against fire.
The Demons were also affected this time, but they used some fancy skills that worked quite well in this situation.
Greed even took out a treasure that protected him from the Fire while gritting his teeth and tears of blood came out of his eyes from frustration at being forced to use his precious Artifact.
While all of this happened, Draco almost salivated while looking at the First witch who was burning and crackling like a salted fish.
'Soon…'
-----End-----
