Vengeance of the Returner

Chapter 127: Calamity



Chapter 127: Calamity

Amidst the storm was a lone man riding a Cerberus, severing the heads of Intors as he pursued the town in the distance. His silver sword emanated blinding light every time he swung it. The Monsters that raced by his side squealed as he slashed them. Though the situation was in total pandemonium, the cold look in his appearance didn't waver.

He drifted his head back noticing a change in the atmosphere of the monsters.

" "

In a far distance was a gigantic monster, a Titan. Probably 70 meters tall. A monster with skin that was dark as coal possessed a long body like a centipede and of three heads like a Cerberus, Two hands similar to that of humans. 

Thanks to the full moon that appeared ahead of any preparation. No matter how the town was prepared in the past there were always casualties left behind. They devour everything that falls in their vision. It is more disastrous than a pack of hundred siege monsters and that thing was rushing towards the town devouring its preys.

The tall monster munching down the monsters that blocked its path. Slowly but, steadily everything moved to the side, paving their way for the titan. And there were four of them.

Swiftly a man jumped from the air, As the man riding the Cerberus lifted his head up.

"How is it going, Brother Liu Wei?"

The Spear sage asked after stabbing his spear into the back of the Titan.

"Too bad..."

The sword sag said in a cold tone.

The Mutino the spears sage used flew away after he jumped down at great speed.

***

Nix was rationally analyzing the situation without growing anxious. Indeed it is an extreme situation. Everything he tried to do will just mess up.

'Neon fire crystals...' He muttered and turned towards Vikil who was there to witness the scene of his product being used.

"Mr.Vikil... I clearly don't know about the situation that's occurring now. I need to know something..."

"Yes?"

"Is it possible to create something like a bomb using the Neon crystals that could at least decimate up to 100-200 Monsters?"

"I cannot say confidently..."

Vikil said and looked at the storm in the distance and turned back to him with a serious expression.

"But, I can try to exponentially increase its potential yet, it would become volatile. I can't accurately say how much it can takedown, but it can probably take down everything within a range of 5kilometer... "

As soon as he said that Nix's head tilted up as a shadow passed by him.

"I'll come back with crystals prepared!..."

Finishing the sentence he began running towards the highest building near him to board on the Mutino that had appeared out of nowhere. If he ever let the monsters destroy the town he'll be just starting from scratch.

"Where are you going?"

Rebecca asked in a loud voice as he passed by her in a rush.

He just slightly glanced at her and just turned his head towards the distance. Reaching out to the balcony he began to climb floor by floor simultaneously yet, the Mutino was soaring in a great height, so he began to run towards his clan house jumping from building to building while falling down a few times by a leap.

'Everything you own will be destroyed...'

He mumbled and gritted his teeth pushing his leg to leap gazing at the top floor of his clan.

Just before falling down he used his chain to grapple the flag post and backed up again. The more he ran the more tired he got. He was practically new to such an adventure.

When he stood on top and turned back he found all the others standing near the world looking at him. He ignored the gazes and looked straight towards the sand storm.

It could reach the walls within six to seven minutes maximum and no matter what all Nix can do is go in two directions and abandon one direction.

He pressed his leg with all his might inserting mana into his muscles and jumped up splattering the blood puddle created by the rain yet, he missed grabbing the mutino. Fortunately, he wrapped its leg with the chain and climbed its back.

Lashing the mutino with his chain he stood facing the north as the mutino squealed and pierced the air wiping the blood off his face that continued pouring down from the sky.

"Cinzia retract every crystal don't ask me questions!"

He ordered holding the communication crystal.

"But...What's happening?"

"Just do as I say."

He phrased.

Within a minute he reached down and found Cinzia holding the Neon crystals standing with Tarok and Reegan.

"Climb up!"

He yelled.

"But..."

"Just do it!"

Rachael just looked at Nix with a doubtful expression.

"You are abandoning this town?"

" "

He didn't reply or look at him; he just lashed the chain and went to the next location, the east. No matter what south is at a greater distance.

Helina, Rafila, Gregory and Jack frose along with few others were there. He picked them all up and took off to the Western border again. Rafila voluntarily joined Nix and others followed her.

"Yo man, Just explain what's happening?"

Jack asked in an annoying tone.

Nix's concentration didn't waver as he intently derived the Mutino through the dark clouds without paying heed to blood rain.

"It is the Blood rain of Moon, A calamity induced by the God Khonsu..."

Rafila said looking into Jack's eyes.

Nix just glanced at her and found her hands trembling in fear. They all knew one thing if they followed this man who even went beyond death they could be saved or even do something about the problem.

As soon as the Mutino reached the western border, the Faces of everyone around him turned into a frightened expression and some even grew anxious.

Without wasting any time he directly drifted the Mutino towards the wall where everyone was gathered and jumped down carrying the collected Crystals giving the leash to Reegan.

Thud!

He fell on the ground and got up stumbling.

"Here!"

He placed the twelve crystals he collected on the table that was prepared for the emergency.

"This is more of a mess than I expected..."

Nix uttered looking at the few monsters that even sped out of the dust and dirt growling and ruching towards the wall.

Without wasting any time Vikil opened the class box in which they used to collect the moths and threw them into it one by one and locked it leaving a single crystal and placed it on top of the box.

Slowly he withdrew his hand and a hologram-like structure appeared on the air. He twisted and turned them a few times as though creating a chemical equation to choose the right chain reaction for the bomb. Swiftly he wore a glove and pierced the crystal with his finger and placed a fragment of crystal made from the extraction of acid spitters and sealed the box throwing it in.

The process merely took a minute but the storm reached closer than ever as he looked at it. He drifted his eyes back to the glass box small rifts appeared on the glass as the crimson red flames boiled inside it immensely. 

"This will blast within a minute. I believe this will decimate everything around a five-kilometer radius or more than that. How are you going to use it."

As soon as he received his reply he picked it up and once again boarded the Mutino. No one went to stop him their legs couldn't move. Though Cinzia and Tarok rushed others and stopped them. Everyone there knew it was suicidal but, none did come up to help him. He outright denied Camila, Cinzia, and Rebecca who wanted to go with him.

***

"Would be nice if it was a backup."

The spear sage, Kim woo sung muttered looking at Lui Wei.  As the Mutino approached the storm.  Is there anyone except them that has the confidence to enter into the storm? That was what their doubts were.

"I don't know perhaps, an apostle sent by some god?"

Lui Wei replied after piercing the neck of the nearby Intor.

"Can be... Or it can just be a mutino passing by. But, I'm really desperate for help right now."

He shrugged.

There were two more Titans causing a mess in a far distance. Though they inflicted huge damage on two titans and took them down.

"?"

Nix furrowed his brows as he found two men amidst the monsters and when he scanned around he found almost two hundred monsters dead and two titans lying dead yet, there were more monsters around.

Nix couldn't help but be perplexed by the power they displayed moreover a chill ran down his spin after looking at the humongous Centipede.

For a second Nix's eyes met with Lui Wei as he passed by him with immense speed while swinging the glass box with his chain tied to it.

"Move to this place. There is gonna be a huge blast."

Nix said, looking at Kim soo young who was amidst the monsters swinging and thrusting his spear fiercely.

"Thanks, but, You may continue without paying heed to us."

Kim soo young said with a smile.

Nix could really understand both the men were strong at first glance. But, he didn't have time to make a conversation at that particular moment as the Titan attacked the mutino with its hand making it fall.

As soon as it was attacked the mutino crashed down. Abruptly the intors and Cerberus surrounded him.

It was nothing new for Nix. He had gone through a lot and as a man who witnessed Dark Nix's unwavering will and tenacity first hand in the war, he inherited a strange feeling. His hands firmly gripped the chain that was attached to the box. His fiercely burning eyes gazed straight at the Centipede.

"Krakk!"

The Intors squealed as he cut them with the dagger.

{Planning to die again?}

"I don't have a choice"

He replied in a cold tone and rotated the chain a few times and released it towards it. Putting his faith in his resurrection though he feared the pain of death.
