Death… And Me

Chapter 2679  Pincer

Sophia joined her angels this time around. Her Chaos Cultivation was indeed very high with her much easier understanding of Laws as a Semi-Celestial. Suddenly, a halo of light spread, enveloping all the angels of her party. Not only did it have high Light Element and Laws, but it also carried her own Chaos Laws through her Chaos Cultivation.

All the angels felt invigorated, displaying way higher combat ability than before. They also understood the twinsʼ method of using wide-area attacks to find the Wonder Beastsʼ cores, so they quickly sprung into action. Many attacks of Light Element covered the skies, hitting the wonder beasts from all sides. Sohpiaʼs group took in ten Wonder Beasts, and the power of her Halo was like a steel wall. Even when one of these Wonder Beasts managed to pass through the first wave of attack, it didnʼt manage to touch the angelʼs body. The Halo power made it impossible. On the Devilsʼ side, Black Locust and Sansara werenʼt the type who helped others. Nonetheless, their own Chaos Laws were enough to stop another twenty or so Wonder Beasts, giving the Devils the time to use the same method as the twins and the angels.

This repeated all around, with the Semi-Celestials and Divinity Realm experts giving the ultimate support to keep everyone safe against these much stronger Wonder Beasts. Of course, the top experts joining the fight didnʼt last long. Providing such a sturdy wall against the Wonder Beasts to keep the rest of the experts alive consumed a lot of energy. Thanks to that, they finished the second wave quite easily. However, they immediately retreated to the back again after that.

The experts at the front once again began to consume the Chaos Laws and Energy left by the Wonder Beasts, increasing their own Chaos Cultivation. This attack turned out to be a great feast for them all.

ʼRetreat!ʼ Kafan didnʼt lose his attention, though. He allowed them to absorb the Chaos Laws for as long as possible before asking them to go back.

ʼNext! 56 kilometers to the southwest. This wave has 93 Wonder Beasts.ʼ Too bad that he didnʼt allow them to rest for long.

That attack and retreat strategy worked wonders, no pun intended. After two hours of hit and run, the experts had managed to kill over a thousand Wonder Beasts while the losses had barely surpassed ten. Everyone understood why. It was the twinsʼ group, which was definitely at the same level as the Semi-Celesitals. Not only that, but for some reason, their energy pool seemed to last forever.

That wasnʼt surprising, of course. They had Celis, who had the Absorption Laws on his side. Not to mention the Divine Origin Energy cores that he pulled out stealthily to absorb and share with the twins and Kentucky. They could continue like this for days if necessary.

Naturally, that was great news for the experts at the front. The less of them that dies, the better it will be. ʼAlright, the waves of Chaos Laws and Energy have shifted,ʼ Kafanʼs voice echoed in everyoneʼs minds. ʼWe need to go around the tower and attack from the other side. There wonʼt be small groups on this side for a while.ʼ

Everyone took a deep breath. The side they came from turned out to be quite good. The Wonder Beasts on this side of the towers were not as stronger as the other side. The reason was that this side of the tower released less Chaos Laws and Energy than the other. Nonetheless, they knew they would have to fight the other Wonder Beasts on the other side sooner or later, so no one complained.

Everyone kept a high distance from the tower and the Wonder Beasts as they went around. Of course, there were Wonder Beasts where they were passing too. Itʼs just that the ones on the way were much weaker. With such a huge group moving together, any Wonder Beast that appeared on the way was swiftly eliminated.

Around an hour later, they got to the other side as Kafan analyzed the waves of Chaos Laws and Energy. ʼBe aware, the Wonder Beasts here are stronger. Also, the waves of Wonder Beasts will definitely have more of them from now on. However, you already understood how to fight in groups, so just keep the same work, and we should be fine.ʼ

ʼNext! A wave with two 235 Wonder Beasts is on the way. Move 41 kilometers to the Northwest side to intercept them.ʼ The orders followed swiftly.

Reanʼs group acted just like last time. Rean immediately stepped forward and attracted the attention of three Wonder Beasts.

ʼDeath Style, Reversive Arcs!ʼ

*Bang, bang, bang!*

Yet, Rean was immediately forced to retreat with the force of the impact alone. ʼHoly shit!ʼ

So far, Rean wasnʼt using even half of his Chaos Laws strength. Yet now, he saw himself forced to increase his power output to at least 70%!

ʼDonʼt lose focus!ʼ kafanʼs voice echoed in his mind. No, not only Reanʼs mind but all groups together. ʼYou knew they would be stronger, so donʼt hold back anymore. Kill!ʼ

ʼDeath Style, Death Scythe!ʼ

Roanʼs Scythe Immediately slashed through the core of one of those Wonder Beasts. However, he didnʼt continue and moved to the side, avoiding another Wonder Beats that broke through other experts. Celisʼ Vine Assault quickly finished another one of these beasts while Kentucky reduced the range of his Feather Blades. It was a lot harder to find the Cores in these stronger Wonder Beasts, so he had to use more of his Blade Feathers.

ʼRetreat!ʼ It was then that Kafan spoke. There were still over a hundred Wonder Beasts remaining, and another twelve experts of their group died in this fight. Yet, another group of Wonder Beasts was coming in their direction. There was no time to fight the rest of this group.

Kafan and the Semi-Celesitals saw it as a good opportunity, though. It was time to see how far these Wonder Beasts would follow them. They even provided support ion the rear to make sure everyone could retreat.

ʼNot good!ʼ Things didnʼt go as smoothly, though. ʼAnother group of Wonder Beasts is coming from the opposite side!ʼ

Everyone was taken aback. How did those Wonder Beasts get there without Kafan noticing? Well, they didnʼt have time to think about it. The other wave, having another two hundred Wonder Beasts, quickly reached their group and closed their path of retreat.
