Chapter 549 - Witch Clan: Power Of Mana Convergent Bomb
"SHIT!! AT LEAST TELL ME THE PLAN NEXT TIME!!!"
BOOOOOM!!!!
Time seems to stop at the moment as a huge explosion erupted in the woods and almost wiped out everything in the vicinity.
...
Isabella and the rest were already in the sky when the bomb exploded. Every people heard an ear-piercing sound and it was followed by a powerful gust of wind that uprooted tens of thousands of trees in the forest. Then, a powerful suction force pulled every object towards the epicenter and the force turned opposite in less than a second. It blew everything, ravaging every object in tiny pieces before the heat flared up.
Isabella and the others raised their hands to block the light but it didn\'t stop them from seeing the light. The light pierced through their arms and eyelids and they could see every vein in their hands.
\'I\'m sure that a peak S-rank could survive a direct hit from the Mana Convergent Bomb but they wouldn\'t escape it unscathed. Even Souta confirmed its power before when he confronted the Great Astley Empire. The power level of the empire is low but their technology is high and this world is the opposite. The power level is high but the technology is low.\'
Isabella said inwardly as she raised her hand and the Guardian Fortress shoots another three human-size bombs.
Against the powerful army, they had to use technology to shorten the gap in their strength.
S-rank would be injured and A-rank would be severely injured while B-rank would directly die from the second impact. The C-rank below would simply disintegrate from the first impact of the explosion. That\'s how she saw it.
She heard from Souta before that he only managed to escape it with burned skin and flesh was because he had eaten a mana fruit that raised his resistance. It was a fruit that could let him walk two thousand degrees celsius.
She was sure that Souta could handle the Mana Convergent Bomb right now as he was several times stronger than the time when he fought the Great Astley Empire.
But it couldn\'t be the same for S-rank witches here. They were tough but surely they haven\'t eaten the same mana fruit as Souta. It would be a different matter if it was a shackled realm expert but those shackled realm witches were fighting each other and the last shackled realm witch was fighting Souta.
In other words, there was no person that could save these witches.
\'After these, I could let that man fight them.\'
Isabella was talking about Eztein. Eztein was at the peak S-rank and he had almost the same amount of durability as these witches. That if she didn\'t include the parasite. Also, Eztein wasn\'t in the epicenter of the explosion unlike those witches so even if he was injured it was nothing compared to those people in the center.
...
Franklin was having a thrilling fight with powerful witches on the other side of the land when powerful explosions erupted.
The explosions stopped their battle as they turned around to look at the gigantic mushroom of clouds that reached the clouds in the sky.
Even at their position, they still could feel the power of the explosion. The power that could harm their bodies.
"Don\'t worry about it. Just focus on fighting your opponent here." Franklin smiled as he waved his hand.
He was here with Eilish\'s twelve subordinates. When he saw that they were fighting strong witches, he had joined the battle to feel the thrill of fighting someone at the peak.
Well, fighting someone at peak S-rank was really good but with his current power level he couldn\'t keep up with them. He could only fight thanks to the twelve people beside him who also had the power of a peak S-rank.
"Everything will be over soon. You\'re strong and I admit it but you\'re not united. I can feel someone strong fighting above those clouds. The witches are dealing with us and their fellow witches at the same time."
Franklin said as he glanced at the sky in the opposite direction. For him, this will lead to the witches\' downfall. If the witches joined together then even if they had an advantage in technology and experience their chances of winning will be too low.
And that\'s one of the reasons why the Great Astley Empire managed to conquer several planets with powerful civilization. The empire struck while those civilizations were having internal strife.
"You\'re overestimating yourself!" One of the witches said to Franklin.
"No, no, no, I\'m not overestimating or underestimating anyone here. I\'m just saying the truth. Hahaha!! It\'s truly remarkable how those bombs could bring fear to people at your level! Do you know how many people fear those bombs in my homeworld? It\'s one of the symbols of fear of the once Great Astley Empire! But I didn\'t like it cause I prefer fighting and beating my opponent with my own hands!" Franklin laughed madly.
...
Eilish looked around the area and was surprised by the power of the bomb. She didn\'t expect that they had a technology that could bring this much destruction. It was nothing to people that broke the mortal shackles like her but for people below her level... That power would be devastating.
It means...
She turned and looked at the Guardian Fortress floating in the sky above her. This one also had one of those bombs.
"Prepare yourself. We\'ll use it too."
Torkez flew at her side and said.
"You\'ll use those bombs to defeat the witches?" She asked.
"Yes, what can we do, we couldn\'t defeat them with a simple clash in power so we have to borrow power from our technology." Torkez shrugged his shoulder.
"It\'s not enough to defeat witches at Annihilation Realm so it means that I had to deal with the finishing blow." Eilish guessed what he was thinking.
Torkez nodded and didn\'t hide his plan from her.
"But I have to say the flaw of this plan..." Eilish added as her tone was serious.
"We only need to use it to the witches at Annihilation Realm. If we somehow killed a huge number of their clan members then those two sides fighting in that direction will feel threatened as they will think that we are annihilating their species." Eilish pointed in the direction where the two elders were clashing. If those two elders decided to fight them then they would suffer defeat. She couldn\'t imagine herself fighting two Extinction Realm masters.
"So that\'s the current situation... then I will follow your words." Torkez nodded at her. He understood her words clearly and quickly devise a proper plan in his mind.
"I\'m glad that you\'re quick to understand it," Eilish said. She turned her head to look at how the other group fared against Rowan.
...
Rowan was watching the huge explosion around him. After a few moments, he looked at the Guardian Fortress in the sky before he turned to Souta, Alice, and the rest.
"I understand now. You\'re not from this world, are you? Those floating fortresses and the bombs that could bring destruction are a technology that couldn\'t be found in this world." Rowan paused for a moment before he continued, "Let me guess... All of your strength is pretty much above your current power level and you possessed skills that I haven\'t seen before. I experienced war and yet I haven\'t seen it so it\'s probably not one of the low-world. Maybe, it\'s another high-world but I think that it\'s the Great World."
Souta narrowed his eyes as Rowan\'s tone had changed. He could feel the calmness in his voice even though he was injured.
"The Divine World has an abundance of energy which makes the people living in it stronger than any other world. Even just a simple stone in Divine World would become a precious stone in a low world. It\'s so great that experts who heard it wanted to live in that world." Rowan looked at Souta, Yuko, and the others. "But it\'s not easy living in that world. There\'s one thing that people from that world fear and that is the potential of the monster unlike here in the sub-world that didn\'t fear it. In that world, a monster lord is born and it is a symbol of destruction because of the immense power it possessed. So they hunted down monsters to prevent any monster lord from being born."
"You... You\'re not the Clan Leader." Souta said in a low voice. He was wary about this and didn\'t know who was the one controlling Rowan.
Alice and Doranjan turned to look at Souta when they heard his words.
"I know some continents that have made the monster decline. The number one on the list is the Demon\'s Land. The demons encroached the whole continent and they worked together to kill all the monster lords in the continent. Some of the monster lords didn\'t have a choice but to flee out of the Divine World as the creatures of Divine World couldn\'t enter the other continent because of the barrier. The next is the Ruin Desolate Land which is also quite similar to how demons massacred monsters from their land. After it is the Giza Continent, then the Vulcan\'s Ring Continent, Frozen Continent, and Mars Archipelago. The last on the list is the God\'s Continent as some of the folks there worshipped monsters." Rowan said.
\'This guy is knowledgeable in Imperium....\' Souta said inwardly.
